MARBLEsIN FAsHION.-The tyraDt Fashion
even extends his sway to the juvenile por-
zion of humanity, and dictates to the boy
with Jagged trousers what kind OF games be
should play, and when; but a few weeks
since ''peg tops" were ia fashion, and there
was not an unwashed urchin in the city who
would be caught playing nything else but
plugging Now, however, there is seldom
top to be seen, and when chap has the
tsrmity to exhibit one, he is instantly
voted tout offashion," and advised to con-
sgn his spinner to the shades
Thus We see the Tickle God holds his pc
tent septre over all classes and conditions,
and having lately issued his mandate that
marbles should be in fashion, all the little
ragged and uncombed urchins in she COM
munity have acknowledged his power BY
Cling their pockets with those little refund
roYs-seven for cent at MIR. Jordans-and
on each tiHe day make it an invariable rule
10 block up the side walks for the purpose o.
prosecuting their games. And never did
the Grecian enter into the Olympic games
with more earnestness than do many of these
little fellows when they are playing for
hsv'sns.' 'Knuckle down and come through
'dubbs' 'vence,' 'vence you dubbs,' 'vence
you clarence 'turnence,' 'clearence, ''don't
poke come through, come to taw,' first
CO., fat and 'vence you anythinks, are
some of the phrases to be found in the vo-
cabulary Of the votaries of this partic alar
game, any or all of which may be heard
upon our streets almost every hour in the
day at this time. Surely Sarely Fashion is
a tyrant with universal and nnlimitel pow

THE LITTLE BOY that DIED

The late DR.. Chalmers is said to have been
the author of the following beautiful lines,
written on the occasion of the death Of a
young son whom he greatly loved:
I nm all alone in my chamber now,
And the midnight hour is near;
And the fagot's crack and the clocks dull tick
Are the only sounds hear,
And DER my soul in its solitude,
Sweet feelings Of sadness glide,
For my heart and my eyes ore full when think
Of the little boy that died.
I went one night to my fathers house
Went home to the dear ones all
And softly opened the garden gate,
And softly the door Of the hall,
My mother came out to meet her son--
She kissed me and then she sighed,
And her head fell on my neck, and she wept
For the little boy that died.
I shall miss him when the flowers come,
In the garden where he played
I shall miss him more by the fre-side,
When the flowers are all decayed.
I shall see his toys and his empty chair,
And the horse he used to ride,
And they will speak with silent speech,
OF the little boy that died.
We shall go home to our fathers house
To our Fathers house in the skies:
Where the hope of our souls shall have no blight,
Our love no broken ties.
We shall roam on the banks of the river of peace,
And bathe in its blissful tide;
And one of the joys Of our life shall be
The little boy that died.

seems perfect mistress Of her voice and art and,
Ia BIZ opinion, viii compare fayorably with any
ssisker who has ever appeared Oh our boards.
As Masrsco, Mr. Mathieu WAS eAcallent-at
times, great. His voice seems to Us to have i'm

sAought him very good, though somewhat careless.
