PoETICAL PATCHWORK:
QUILTED DY STRANGER.

Twas midnight, in his guarded tent,
He was wight Of high renown,
In splendid robes profusely drest;
His brecchcs cost him but crown.
Old Grimes is dead, that good old soul,
Thou should'st not thus repine;
They laid him in his narrow bed, ...
At Bingen on the Rhine.
Hear ye those loud contcnding waves,
deep the pearly caverns among?
Far, far away in Illinois, s,.,,
Where burning Sappho lov'd and sung ?
Twas many and many year ago,
The cold round moon shonc brightly down
All bloodless lay TIL untrodden snow,
When Old Dan Tucker came to town.
One evening as wandered forth,
On broad Lake Huron's pebbly shore
spied maiden past her prime,
Rich and rare were the gems shc wore.
Twas midnight on the mountains brown,
Along the banks of Ayr;
When through an Alpine village pass'd,
The boy with the auburn hair.
Saw ye the mighty from their gravcs'
Where is the Pyrrhic Phalanx gomez
o, terribly proud was Miss Mac Bride !
Were the last words of Marmion.
The Suns eye had sickly glare,
On old long Islands sea-girt shore;
When black eyed Susan came on board,
And bright gold ring on her wand sh
tbore.
It was an ancient fisherman,
That name is quite forgot
He led her to the altar, ....
The Lady of Shalot.
Earl March look'd on his dying child,
His ruddy check grow wan;
Why should the spirit of mortal be proud,
Or any other man.

CONVERSATION.

Conversation is most pleasing when it is
carried on in an easy tone without letting the
mind feel irksolne from lethargy, or distrac-
ton from violent emotions, This is the kind
of conversation that gives most pleasure to
people of fashion, and even to scholars and.
men of profound learing. DIR. johnson used
always to like the conversation of his fashions
able friend, Topham Bear c'orc, because he
talked with an apparent inscnsibihty-with
an affectation of perpetual canness. This
johnson called carrying on a conversation
without effort. He preferred a calm monoto-
nous talker to o violent emphatical one.
aGeA friend of ours, who had taken pride
for several years in culhvating full crop Of
hair on his face, was called away en- business
some time since. While absent an experience
ed aarber spoiled his whiskers in trimming
them, which so chagrinned him that he diroc-
ted the barber to make clean job of it by
shaving whiskere and moustache both off,
The barber obeyed, and our friends face was
as smooth and as delicate as when in his teens,
He returned home in the night. Next NOR
ming his little girl did not recognize him on
waking up. Looking over her mother and
seeing as she supposed a stranger in the bed,
she remarked in her childish simplicity, Mis-

DENTISTS.

DR. HAAS, HAVING LEASED THE ROOMS
~ formerly occupied by DR.. Kivett, in DIR. Bray's
building, few doors above the Post Office, for a
series of years. would respectfully solicit the citi
zens of Evansville and the surrounding towns and
country, to visit his rooms and see the specimens
on exhibition whether they need the services Of a
Dentist not.
Since the issuing of his last circular and adver-
tisement, over year since, several improvements
and new inventions have been made, of which he
has awaited himself and allows nothing that will
suLserve the interests of his PATIENTS pass
cured. His facilities are better and establishment
larger without doubt than any other in our State,
ana equal to any in eastern cities. All those who
need Dental operations performed, and are pleased
with his work, shall be attended to with great
pleasure.
The following are tho styles of work manufac-
tured by him Continuous Gum Block or Carved
Work; yulcanite Base; Coralite; Amber; Cheo-
plastic; Gold and Silver work.
Nothing excel the beauty and cleanliness Of
the continuous gum work. 1t is without a seam
to nearly their original contour by this style OF
work, and also by the use of the Vulcanite Coral
lite, and Amber Base. The latter styles, for light
ness and adaptation to difficult mouths, excel any
thing We have ever seen. tFFs

when extracting teeth. They perfectly harm
less. The most delicate can have them applied
He does not advertise anything he cannot do,
nor exhibit anything not made by himself.
