A Gallant Young Lady.

A beautiful young lady, Miss T.,
of Mobile, had quite AN adventure in
one OF tho st. Charles street omnibuscs
yesterday. IL appears that in compa-
ny with young lady friend she has
been paying visit up in the city, and
was coming 10 wnto Canal street again.
Just US she had pulled the string, and
was ir the net Of getting out OF the bus,
n man sitting near the door, snatched
her parse from her hand and ran oil
with it.
The youig lady, with gre presence
of mind, sprang out of tho 'bus and ran
after hi.. The theft in attempting To
dodge into the crowd, slipped and fell
when the young lady, stooping down
gracefully, caught hold of him by the
collar, an 1 said In the sweetest excited
tone Imaginable: "Ahl you bad man,
amt you ashamed 10 take my purse
give IL buck 10 me directly" ..t...
The thief was perfectly subdued. and
handed over tho purse TO the young
Indy, who not until then released her
tiny, jeweled hand from his collar. The
rascal was probably actnated TO tb,
hasty delivery by the approach Of u
crowd of gentlemen attracted by the
singular scene, and was glad enough to
skulk away without being arrested.
The young lady bIuslcd considerably
after tho excitement Of the chase, anc
tho gaze OF the yong gentlemen who
came too late, rejolned her companion
and walkcd away ss If nothing had oc
] curred. IN, o. Delta. 1sNf ess

N. L., and rode twenty miles In the
morning TO take the cars He arrived
sst in time 10 see the train leave with
out him. He was then driven TO a
hotel, said to be the best IN the place.
and ordered breakfast, that he might
be ready to take the next train. Fail
ing TO get breakfast, he was hurried in
to 30 cart, (called an omnibus,) TO go
to the train He tore his coat badly in
endeavor'ng to escape from the vehicle,
aud was again too late for the train
At length, however, he got on board OF
a train and came eastward. The trials
of the venerable tray eler were not yet
1t an end In crossing the ferry at AL
bany, he lost his hat, and entered the
Hudson river cars for New York with.
outa covering for his head other than
his handkerchief On getting of the
train, he accidentally tread upon the
toot of some democrats dog, and re.
ccived u nip in his leg. While on hi'
way down the river. his spcctacles, and
a balor-knJe got out Of his reach and
disappeared altogether.

RIVER NEWS.

The Ohio opposite this port continues to
recede, having declined during the twenty
four hours ending last evening some eight
cen OF twenty inches, leaving a channel
depth at this point of twenty-five feet. At
Pittsburg the river was falling at last ac-
counts, and, we presume, is still.
The weather was milder and rather pleas
ant yesterday, the sun melting the snow and
ice in the streets; but in the evening it was
quite cold again and freezing.
Business on the Landing continued dull
yesterday, less doing there than on Monday
or Tuesday. The steamers were numerous,

KTssiNG THE BLARNEY STONE,



In Blarney Castle, on crumbling tower,
There lies q stone, (above your ready reach),
which TO the lips imparts, tits said, the power
or farile falsehOod and persuasive speechi
And hence Of one who talks 10 snch Tone -
The peasants say, Hes kissed the Biarney Stone!'
THIS, when see some hippant tourist swell
With secrets wreeted from an Emperor;
Ard hear him yaunt hi bravery, and tell
How once he killed Marquis, I ihfcr
Tie mau came baUk-if but the truth we're known
Bylpay Of Cork, and kissed the Blarnsy stonel
go when hear shallow dandy boast
I'm the long ear that marks brother dunce)
" hat precious fayors ladies' lips have lost,
To his advantage; l suspect, at once,
The fellow = lying; that the dog alone
(Enoueh for him) has kissed the Blarney stone!
When some fine Iady-rcadv TO detame
An absent beauty, with as sweet grace
" ith seeming rapture greets hated name,
And lauds her rival to her wondering face,
Zen harify herself must freely own
Some women, too, have kissed the Blarney Stonsl
when sleek attorneys whose seductive tongues,
smooth with the unction of golden fee,
breathe forth hinge talsehoods nom capacious
lungs"
(The words are Jarenars) 'tis plain to see
A lawyers genius isn't all bis own;
The speoiOus rogue has kissed the Blarney Stone!
When the false pastor, from his faintng flock
Mithholds tho bread Of life the Gospel news
To give them dainty words, lest he should shock
The fragile fabric OF the paying pegs-
Who hut must feel, the man, 70 Grace unknown,
Has kissod-Aot Calvary -bnt the Blarney Stone
