Nothing TO DO.

Miss Molina McMoran was hearty and hale
Yet wished to be slender ana languid and pale.
SO defrauded her stomach of what was its due,
And cheated her muscles of exercise, too.
She dipped in the goblet her fingers so rare,
And wiped their tipeDds with delicate air,
Then crossed her white hands on her hoop-be.
spreadlap,
Too idle to converse and too vain for nap;
For still twas her aim in attracting the view,
To convince all behoders she'd nothing to do:
Miss Julia D. Scamper was agile and bright,
Her step, like the Queen of the Fairies, light;
So her feet for the soh of her hands made amends,
And she took for her calling to call on her friends.
At all seasons and times she saluted then view,
Though they might be busy, she'd nothing to do,
But plenty of small talk around her to fling,
SO she babbled away like brooklet in spring,
Hanging up slain hour as she went from the door,
Alas for such trophies, when time is no more
Miss Celestia Fitz Mackerel would dAudle the day,
Over ochet and wOrsted, or novel ana play
She sorted her shades with an accurate eye,
Bul let her poor mothers wan features pass by
Vino, worn half to death with her family care,
Found nothing like help from her daughter and
heir.
1.-THE getting of dinners the toll and the stir
OF such vulgar pursuits was disgusting to her;
And thus to her nondescript creed she was true
The mother might toll, but she'd nothing to do.
o young men, my masters, who dream with de-
OF a home of ysur own, which no discord can
blight,
Where are roses of Eden, from fading exempt
And an Eve whom no cOntraband apple can Tempt
Where the wheels of good order like clock work
shall move,
And babies well trained brink ali ocean of love-
Where prudence with smiles of endearment shall
glow,
And wealth hand in hand with economy grow:
I'd tain sound trumpet and bid you beware
OF quicksands beneath, though the surface seems
fair;
Avoid like the Upss, with poisonous dew,
Those exquisite ladies, who've nothing to do.

Er.RHnsihenI TYleR.

The death of ex- President Tyler, which took
place at Richmond, on Friday night, Jan. 18th,
was announced by Telegraph, some days ago.
Virginia has been called the Mother of Presi-
dents, since of our sixteen Chief Magistrates,
seven were born within its limits. Washington
ilIustriously heads the list, whereof John Tyler
was last and least. Long before his day, states
men had ceased to be the staple of the State de-
voted to negro breeding. John Tyler was born
in Charles county, March 80, 1870, and at the
time of his death was thus about ~ years OF age.
Following the profession of his father, he entered
the bar at the age of nineteen, and achieved some
prominence in his profession. In the course of
his public life he has been member OF tho house
of Delegates, Representative to Congress, TOW
ernor CT Virginia, and during his second term in
the latter office resigned it to succeed John
Randolph in the United States Senate. He was
ever the advocate of Southern rights doctrines,
an admirer and close disciple of Calhoun, fought
by his side on the notification question, was
among the opposition to Jackson's AdministTa'
ton, and recorded his vote against the Force
bill.
Elected to the Vice Presidency in the cam.
paign Of 1910, one month after the inauguration
saw him succeed the lamented Harrison in the
Chief Magistracy. His entire administration,
with honest minded men of all parties, VIII bear
a stain from an act of insncerity and bad faith
which no historian can gloss over and which
will find, in It's principle, few defenders He was
traitorouS to the party whose sufrages he receiv-
ed aud false to his own pledges This act OF Pres
ident Tyler cost him his Cabinet, with the ex-
ception OF one member
Since retiring from the Presidential Chair,
Mr. Tyler has mingled but little in public life.
His last appearance vas most characteristic of
the man. He was President OF the Peace Con
yention which closed its session at Washington
February 81 of the past year, few days be-
fore the Inauguration of President Lincoln.
After aiding in the preparation of the humilia'
ting propositions reluctantly accepted by loyal
people az basis of compromise, John Tyler was
the first TO denounce the work of his own hands
in public speech ut Richmond, few days
after, in which he tooA strong secession
ground.
A proslavery statesman, he lived TO see this
monstrous rebellion, the legitimate fruits of
the doctrines he defended. He lived to see
Notification become Secession, and himself TO
swell with what influence he possessed the forces
of those who were striving to subyert the
Union. He breathed his last ill the rebel cap
tal. surrounded by the hordes of the slave
power The last among the dwndling line of
statemen Virginia has given to the country,
himself succeeded by the Masons, aud Garnetts,
and Pryors, he dies without honor, and is
destined to fill no niche in history save in the
brief line that records his fortuitons elevation
even if its shame be charitably unrecorded.-
Chicag0 Tribune,
