LADY BYROYS REPLY TO LORD BYR0NS
FagEWEtL.

Yes! farewell-farewell forever!
Thou myself has fixed eur doom,
Babe hopes fairest blossoms wiiher,
Never again tor me 10 bloom.
Unforeiving thou hast called me
Didst thou ever say forgive!
Poor the wretch whose wiles beguiled thee
Thou alone jidsi seem TO live.
Short the space which time has given
To complete thy loves decay;
By unhallowed passions driven,
Soon thy heart was taught 10 stray;
Lived for me that feeling tender
Which Thy verse so well can show,
From my arms why didst thou wanderl
My endearments why foregof
Oh ! too late thy breast was barred,
Oh too soon 10 me twas shown,
That thy love but once shared,
And already IL is flown.
Wrapped in dreams of Joy abiding,
On thy breast my head hath lain,
In thy love and truth coufdiug-
Bliss ne'er can know again.
The dark hour did first discover
In thy soul the hideous stain
Would these eyes had closed forever,
Meier 10 weep thy crimes again.
But the impious wish o, beayenl
FIcm the record blotied be
Yes, yet would live, o, Byron,
For the babe I've born for thee
In whose lovely features (et me
All my weakness here confess,
Whilst the struggling Tears permit me)
All the fathers can trace
he whose image never leaves me,
He whose image still prize,
Who This btierest feeling gives me,
Sill 10 love where despise.
With regret and sorrow rather
When our childs frs, accents flow,
/ will teach her to say FATHER,
But his guilt she nee shall know.
Whilst tomorrow and tomorrow
Wake me from wIdow'd bed,
On anofher's arms no sorrow
With thou fell, no tear witt shed.
| the worlds approval sought not,
When tore myself from thee
OF its pfsise or biame thought not
What's rs praise or blame 10 me !
He so prized--so loved-aiored,
From my heari his image drove,
On my head conten. OF has poured,
And preferred waaIon's love.
Thou art proud, but mark me, Byron,
I've heart proud as thine own;
Soft 10 love, but hard as iron
When coniem pit IS DER il thrown;
But farewell ! I'll not upbraid thee,
Never, never wish thee ill
Wreched though thy crimes have made me
Ii thou cansf be happy still.

WASHINGTON. D. O.. Feb. .. 1860.

DEAR DAvE:-You are doubtless aware that
our distinguished fellow citizen, DR.. Jefferson
A. W., and your humble servant, are sojourning
in this seething, boiling, overhowing metropo>
lis, and special haven, Of all shades, colors
and castes of opiniOnated politicians. In my
opinion, no greater subject, was ever spread on
canvass, than the ever.vaying scenes Of life
in Washington. Here you behold the cold,
calculating blue nosed Helperte, in contrast
with the black -eyed, dsrk-haired, rudely
faced Southern freseater.. Here, too, stand the
broad shouldered, fullsbreasted Representatives
Of the Great West, their manly bosoms yet
heaving, and rolling with the patriotism in.
stlled by the breezes that sweep over the broad
prairies Of their own distant homesl
The Doctor seems to enjoy himself hugely,
and is a special favOrite with all classes of
Democrats; but the Helpertes regard him with
suspicion; they are doubtless afraid that some
monstrous "snsik" is about TO be precipitated
in their midst, and the CONSERVATION depicted
ON their countenances is plainly visible. But
the Doctor is humane man. and has assured
me that he has no intention of doing anything

him. that their punishment is already more
than they can bear, in the defeat of Sherman,
the Helperite.
We were by special invitation permitted to
attend Democratic caucus few evenings ago,
and after the transaction Of the business before
that body we were introduced to nearly all the
members present. The utmost hilarity and
good fellowship seemed to prevail, which re-
gard as harbinger Of the success Of our party
in the coming contest for President OF the Uni.

gramme Of our introduction that ought not to
be overlooked.
After we were specially introduced to nearly
all, Southern gentleman, our escort, rose and
with majestic wave Of his hand made the hap
Piest little speech ever had the good fortune

geological Lectures, Illuutrated.

DR.. Boynion, whose reputation as popular
lecturer on Geology is unequaled, will deliver

ply mean one who can interest all classes, the
learned and the unlearned on the subject, the
young as well as the old, No one need fear being
bored by "hard" names. scientific terms, or a
meaningless nomenclature. Those who heard

Tm GAME LAw.-The following bill passed
the Senate on Thursday last. We give il, title
aud all:
To amend the second section Of IAN act to
prevent the killing of Birds aud other Game, "
passed April 10, 1851,
Sec. 1. Be il enacted by the General Assem-
bly, Of the State Of Ohio, That the second sec
tion Of the dbove recited act be amended TO read
as followss IL shall be unlawful for any person
at any time between the first day of January
aud the first day Of July, TO catch, kill OF de7
siroy, or TO pursue with such intent, any wild
turkey, quail or Virginia partridge. ruffed
grouse or pheasant. pinnated grouse, or prairie
chicken, any wild goose, wild duck, teal, OF
other wild duck, or any wild deer; or at any
time before the first day Of July, to catch, kill
or destroy auy woodcock, or to have in his pos
session, any Of the birds or game mentioned in
this act during the season when the killing,
iniuring, or pursuing the same lie hereby pro-
hibited,
Sec. 2. The original section second Of the act
above recited is hereby repealed,
We must take some exceptions to The "spe-
cialities" Of the above. A "prairie chicken
is never seen in this State, except in cage as
a curiosity, or upon the tables Of our epieures;
their mention, then, 10 an act for the protection
Of game in Ohio, is not only unnecessary but
ridiculous. In Western States where they are
found, they do not come iD season--as also do
not quail and pheasant--until about the 10th
of August.
Another Objectionable feature Of the "amend.
ment" is that which does away with spring
ducking, Sc delightful to sportsmen. All water
fowl leave our waters early in the winter and
-eturn again early in the spring. They do not
pair off until about the lst of May, so that the
law as 1t at present stands. fully protects them
during the incubating and multiplying period.
To crown the Rbsurdity of the above "amend
ment," i. places all kinds of game in and out
Of season at the same tme it makes no dis
elimination whatever between the varetiesl-
The author, Mr. Parish, has convicted himself
of inexcusable ignorance of the game Of Ohio;
he has been unable to distinguish between
"Hesh and fowl" he knows nothing whatever
Of their habits; and what makes the matter
worse, he has involved the gentlemen who
supported his amendment in the same ludcrous
and humilia.ing positionl They make sad
havoc of nature when they would bring fowl
into seaSon-make game Of em, egadl-when
they are but barely out Of the she'll Turkies,
quails, pheasants, ducks, etc, not all fledged
when Mr.. Parish would have them prepared for
the tablet And this is the work Of our lSWS
makers! When the amendments brought before
the House, we hope some gentleman will kick
it into decent shape, and not let the work of
the Senate go out for the derision of sensible
men everywhere.
