BY WINTHROP aAcwoRTH pRAED.
There was time when could feel
All passions hopes and fears,
And tell what tongues can meier reveal,
BY smiles and sighs and tears.
The days are gone! No more No more,
The cruel fates allow;
And though I'm hardly twenty-four,
I'm not a lover nowi
Lady, the mist is on my sight,
The chill Is on my brow;
= Ny day il night, my bloom is blight,
I'm not o lover now!
never talk about the clouds,
laugh at girls and boys;
I'm growing rather fond of crowds,
And very fond Of noise
Inever wander forth alone,
Upon the mountains brow;
weighed last winter sixteen stone
I'm not lover nowl
never wish to raise veil,
never raise sigh;
Inever tell tender tale,
never tell lie;
cannot knee1 as once did,
I've quite forgot my bow
never do as am bid
Tm not lover now.
The muses. steed is very fleet
I'd rather ride my mare;
The Poet hunts quaint conceit- 5
I'd rather hunt hare;
Eve learned to utter yours and you
Instead Of thine and thou;
And, oh! can't endure blue 75as
I'm not lover now
don't encourage idle dreams
Of poison or Of ropes; o
cannot dine on airy schemes,
Icannot sup on hopes
New milk own is very fine,
Just foaming from the cow;
But Jet, want my pint of vine
I'm not a lover now!
When Laura sings young hearts away,
I'm deafer than the deep;
When Lenora goes to play,
sometimes go to sleeps
When Mary draws her white gloves out,
Inever dance, / vow;
Too hot to kick ones heels about
I'm not a lover now!
I'm busy with the State affairs,
Iprate Of Pitt and Fox;
ask the price Of railroad shares,
Iwatch the turn of stocks;
And this is life-no verdure blooms
Upon the withered bough;
/ save fortune in perfumes
Pm not lover now
may not be what others are,
A boudoir's babbling fool;
The fattered star of bench or bar,
A party's chief or tool;
Come shower or sunshine, hope or fear,
The Palace or the Plow,
My heart and lutte are broken here
Pm net lover now
Lady, the mist is on my sight,
The chill is on my brow;
My day is night, my bloom is blight
I'm not lover now

Mr.. Edtor-Until the receipt of the advices per

rope and the Northern markets Of the United
States the Clayed Sugar market was rather active,

CONGRESSIONAL.
WASHINGTON. Jan. 81

WASHINGTON, Jan. u.
HoUsE.-On motion of Mr.. Maynard,
the House proceeded to vote far Speaker
Tho uouea ,~.>l Co. Or - ..,--:i much
excitement. The South Americans voted
for Smith, of North Carolina. Various
democrats, now seeing there was a pros
pect of an election, changed their votes
to him. Some made brief explanations,
to the effect that they wanted to promote
harmony in the contest. There was fire.
quent applause, and marked attention on
all sides. Messrs. Morris, of Penn, Mil
ward, Nixon, Scranton and Wood, who
had voted heretofore for Sherman, now
voted for Smith. Before the result was
announced there was change in the cur
rent feeling. John Cochrane rose to give
his reasons why he could not vote for
Smith. Several gentlemen endeavored to
deprive him of the floor by raising points
Of order on him.
In conclusion, Mr.. Cochrane changed
his vote to Mr.. Millson. He could vote
for none but democrat.
Other explanations were made by dem
ocrats for change of their votes for
Smith.
Mr.. McClcrnand said, as it was now in
the power of the democratic party prop
err to elect Smith, he changed his vote for
him, and he expressed his hope that the
democrats of the Northwest would give
him their support.
Mr.. Bocock made a short speech. He
was always willing to unite on any sound
man, and voted for him.
Other democratic changes were made
TO Smith, accompanied with occasional re-
marks, some saying they desired to give
peace to the country, and strike a blow at
the irrepressible conflict, preferring a ma
tional wing to sectional republican.
Mr.. Morris, of Illinois, said that if his
vote could elect Smith, he would not
give it.
Other EXPLANATIONS were favorable to
changing for Smith.
Intense interest was expressed through.
ont the proceedings. More short speech
es were made.
Mr. Cobb made n humorous speech, by
way of exhortation to his dissenting po-
litlcal friends to como up to the support
of the South. He called attention to
tho fact that men of all parties voted for
him. IL gentlemen did not avail them
selves of the present opportunity, they
never would come near electing nomi-
nee who was opposed to the republicans.
Mr.. Rufiin, as the only man standing
aloof from tho southern phalanx voted az
Ter explanation for Smith, saying he had
been encouraged by his northern demo.
cratic colleagues 10 do so.
Other explanations followed.
Messrs. English and Niblack voted for
Smith, as the contest was narrowed down
between a republican and an American.
Mr.. Morris, of ILL.,, wanted Mr.. Smith
to say for himself whether he repudiated
the doctrines of The know-nothings.
Several democrats stated that they had
heard tho fact from bis own lips,

THE TREASURY MATTERS.

The efforts of the republican press to
cast upon Treasurer McKINNEY all the
responsibility of the violation of the law
such palpable and gross violations that
they have been compelled to call upon the
Governor TO remove him from office, are
likely to be recanted. The tune is now
set that McKINNEY has committed ga
fault-a serious fault"-nothing more.
After the onslaught made by the
Tribune and Republican, it was under
stood that Mr.. McKNNEY had commenced
the preparation of defence, in which he
laid out an expose of the whole financial
operation of the past and present Admin
istrations, and he deficd the powers that
be to remove him.
The. leaders of the republican party APP
pear to have reconsidered the matter, and
10 have come to the conclusion that they
had rather the party should be held re-
sponsible for the acts of the Treasurer,
than TO meet the proposed expose. Con-
sequently, we see the soothing article in
this weeks Republican, and il will be
followed up by the rest of the republican
press with the expectation that such n
course will quiet the nerves of the Treas
urer and shut his mouth. Whether this
will succeed or not, remains to be SEEM
The Treasurer, if he has the pluck for
which his friends give him credit, will
hardly submit to the rough usage he has
received. 1t is ungenerous and unkind,
his friends say, when he was nominated
for his present position at the urgent so.
licitation of the Bingham administration
and evidently for the purpose of covering
up the financial operations, to turn in and
attempt to make him the scapegoat now
because the matter was run so far thai
some of their rascalites had to como t
light.
In the meantime we are getting litLl'
something almost every day from repub
lican sources. They keep letting out I

the Treasurer is not induced to keep 81
