Oh, never, never airt, girls

You say you meant in fun, girls,
To wound with Cupid's darts.
But they are cruel wounds, girls;
Wounds that for life may hurt;
Then heed wise old COUNSEL lor--
Don't Airl, dear girls, dom, frt.
You say men are hardy, gills,
And reall ly never feel
But many an old bachelor
His secrets could reveal,
And tel of happier days gone by,
OF false girls, feelings hurt
And now condemns all womankind
Don't hjr', then, girls, don't Art
There is no real pleasure, girls,
In striving TO excel
In such an art as flirting, girls;
Though you may do it we'll.
Then, il you love, love truly, girls;
But love not to hurt:
Choose wisely, well, and sensibly;
But, girls, oh, never 0irt!

GOOD MANNERS.

If Christianity had no higher rec
ommcnlaton than this, that it makes
a man a gentleman, it would still be
an invaluable social element. The
New Tcs ament inculcates good man
ners. OurSavour was courteous even
to his prosecutors. Look at Paul be-
fore Agrippa His speech is model
ldignilicd courtesy as well as ofper-
suasive eloquence. A spirit Of kindly
consideration for all men character>
lied the Twelve. The same mild,
self>sacriiicing spirit which pervaded
the sayings and doings Of the early
disciples is exhibited by the true fol-
lowers Of the cross at the present day.
A man, it is true, may be specifically
polite without being Christian; but
the very conditions of his creed and
the obligations of his faith, is neces-
sariIy in mind and soul--and there
fore in word and act-a gentleman.

The Revolution in Chili-Shockng
OutrapeS

A correspondent of the Philadelphia Penn
sylvanan, writing from Valparaiso, gives some
interesting particulars of the progress of the
revolutionary outbreak in Chill. On the 3rd of
January battle was fought at Conception, re-
sulting in the success Of the Government troops,
after about 400 had been killed and wounded on
both sides Two other battles subsequently
took place, in one of which (at San Felippe)
600 were killed and wounded. Of this engage
ment the writer remarks:
1t is said that the officer in command OF tho
government troops, in order to excite his men,
stated to them that if victorious, they would
be granted three hours to pluuder and to do just
as they pleased with persons and things within
their reach AS soon as the enemy were driven
from the city the work Of punder and outrage
commenced. All the business houses, stores
and private residences were forcibly entered
and robbed Not only were the dwellings Of
respectable citizens robbed and damaged, but
| the female inmates were insuted, and in some
instances were brutally outraged. The nunnery
doors were forced open. and deeds of the most
revolving and disgraceful character perpetrated.

fred from Government War Steamer, passed

rFrom the Cincinnati Enquirer.

Upon another page will be found sug-
gestion that the statue of Daniel Webster, re-
Gently sent to Boston by Hiram Powers, be
placed with his face to the South and his back
toward the Commonwealth, to represent the
attitude he stood in at the close Of his lfe"
We think a valuable amendment to this propo-
sition would be to place the figure of the great
man of Marshfeld in situation where he could
be pointing to the door of Faneuil Hall, where
he was refused the liberty to speak and, full
in front of him, two stone monsters, barring his
way-Bgotry and Disunion. A gentleman in
one of LIE Sage's novels had one suit of livery
for all the servants that came, long men or
short, fat men or lean-into that livery they
must go.
There very narrow and scanty amount
of cloth in pattern for a Massachusetts man.
Daniel Webster ontgrew their measure when
he took the measure of the Union, and finding
now that their contracted cloth cannot even
make shroud for his skeleton, they vent their
spleen against his marble statue. 1t is anus
ing to see these sheep butting against that inn
perbsabIeipillar of a nations pride. We think
most of them must belong naturally, to the
Maybleheod race.

The following Dream respecting the Hot
practice clip from exchange:
DR. B, is an advocate of blisters, for any
and all affections of the spinal column alias
the backbone. So intent is his mind on the
subject, that at night he dreams of it. The
other night, after retiring late, leaving can
die close to his bed, he dreamed that he was
sick, that physician was called in, and that
the first thing the application of a most
blistering, blister. to DR.. B's back. The draw
ing and burning began, and increased 10 nten-
Fsity and intolerabe pain. DIR. b. asked his
brother doctor to remove it but he refused,
saying that the blister must do its perfect work.
DR.. d, could endure it no longer, and raised
himself in the bed seeking relief The exertion
in raising, and the torture Of the blister on bis
back, awoke him. The first thing that caught
his eye the clothes on fire at the foot of
the bed. He reached behind him to pull his
shirt down over the blister, but the appur
tehance to that garment gone, the FIRE had
burnt it off to the neck. DR.. 3, extinguished
the fire in the bed, but the fire in the blister
continued to burn, and did not vanish with his
dream"

Palmerston and Buchanan

A London correspondent of the Constella-
tion tells of d curious contretempts committed
by our President on a certain occasion:
Mr. Buchanan arrived in London early in
1854 and gave. the usual notification to the
British government. After having visited Lord
Aberdeen (the Prime Minister) and Clarendon
(the Foreign Secretary he called upon Lord
Palmerston, who was then Home Secretary,
and was received, of course, with the utmost
poteness and respect Palmerston, it is known,
married the widow of the Earl Cowper, to
whom he had been attached before her first
marriage. A great deal of scan. mag was cir
culated in the London circles as to his contin-
tinued intimacy swieA aEer marriage which
CAUSED the. parties xSnsiS1 ExAbfe anuoyare9 On
the occasion of Mr. Buchanans introduction,
after the usual salutations. Pslmerston said
Pray accompany me into the next room where
we shall find my Lady Palmerstou and some of
the family We are all going to grand Aow-
er show at Chiswick they have coaxed me-
into giving them an impromptu luncheon here
| in my official residence, where, by the way,
do not reside and we shall be very glad if you
will join our party, without ceremony, and
afterwards accompany to Chiswick Lady
Palmerston will have the honor of calling upon
your charming niece, Miss Lane, in the course
of tomorrow, and we hope to sec great deal
of you both at Cambridge House"
So saying, Pamerston drew back the folding
doors. and there, in the next room, was a merry
party, making glad over luncheon. Mr. Bu-
chanan introduced to Lady Palmerston,
who said with smile, "These are my children.
Mr. Buchanan. This" pointing to the present
Earl Cowper, this is my eldest SON." Mr.
Buchanan smiled, bowed, glanced from Lord
Cowper to Lord Palmerston-always remcm-
Der that Buchanan had never heard of the
particular scandal in the case never knew that
Lady p. had been Lady c.; never heard that
the Lady married Palmerston after she was
fifty But g'ancing from Cowper to Palmer
ston, and wishing to be complimentary, he
said, Indeed, my lady, should have recog-
nized this gentlemen, even in the street, as Lord
Pamerston's son from the strong family resem-
blance - Mr. Buchanan was told how the case
really was--after his blunder"
