The Uncertainty of Types.

Conkcy, having been united by the holy
bands of wedock, sent the marriage no.
tics, with verse of his own composition,
to the printer for publication:
'Married-At Gosham, Feb, 2Sth, A.
Conkey, Esq, Attorney at Law, to Miss
Euphenia Piggins.
Love is the union of two hearts
That beat in softost melody;
Time, with its ravages, imparts
No bitter fusion to its ecstacy.'
He looked with much anxiety for the
uext issue of the paper, in order to see
his name in print. Tee compositcr into
whose charge the notice was placed hap
pened to be on spree at the time, and
made wonderful blunder in setting the
types. Here is the notice.

GrOaners.

One meets occasionally with men and
women who seem to come into the world
to eRoAN. Nothing pleasss, satisfies or
consoles them. No moral sunshine che
quers with cheerful light the abysmal
gloom of the soul. Take them into the
fields on bright, sunny day, when the
sweet breath of the tender herbs makes
the air perfume, take them to the
brmming brooks, gushing down the up
land meadows, and dancing in the eddics
to their own jocund music; bid them
listeu to the feathered philosophers hym-
ming the golden day that is, and taking
no thought of the cloudy morrow that
NAV be decant to them pleasant voice
on the beauty and harmony of the fair
world that God has given them to dwcll
in and up from the deep depths of their
sympathixing spirit comes such a re-
sponse as you might expect from a paw
ming grave. They eRoAN. Where there
is no fervor, there can be no piety, where
there is 10 admiration for, no sympathy
with the glorious works of Nature, there
can be no gratitude to Natures God i.
therefore, We cannot help thinking that
smiling Christians find more favor in the
ewes Of the Giver of all good things,

Gen. Clay's Farewell to Russia.

Major General Cassius M. Clay is ex-
pected to arrive here in few days, his
friends looking for him in every steamer.
There is no doubt that tho brave Ken
; lucky emancipationist will be heartily
welcomed on his return to country
which needs men of pluck and stamina
like him.
We have already announced the fact
that Mr.. Clay had taken his leave of the
Gear, and introduced to him Minister
Cameron. Bayard Taylor, in letter
to the Tribune, thus reports Mr.. Clay's
farewell remarks
"Your Imperial Majesty will see, from
the letter of the President of the United
States, which I have the honor to bear,
that he recalls me at my own request
Had consulted my pleasure rather than
my duty, l should not have exchanged
the attractions which surround your I'm
perial Majesty's court for the hardshps
and dangers of the field of battle. BY
this devotion to my 20 ,ntry, your I'm
perial Majesty will measure the depth of
my gratitude that you have magnani-
mousy stood by us in our time of need,
of humiliation and of national peril
That gratitude is felt by every lover of
our great Republic at home and abroad.
Should survive the war, to enjoy that
moro stable peace which believe God
reserves fr our country. it shall be the
purpose of my life to cultivate and
strengthen that gratitude for your I'm
pcrial Majesty, your house and your peo-
pie.
Ny countrymen know already what
you have been to us; shall tell them
of the cemency, of the firmncss, Of the
sublime courage which your Imperial
Majesty displays in your magnanmous
efforts for the progross and glory of your
own people. To have personally known
and enjoyed the gracious consideration
of the most illustrious among livinOmcn,
who will be known in all time not as the
Gar of all the Russias, but as Alexan-
der II, will be to me the most precious
of life s memories. Sad in leaving your
Imperial presence, I 60 to mingle my as
pirations with the great millions of the
Western world. that God will prosper
and have in His holy keeping your In

the fortunate millions of people under

Duetitul.
MatrimOny.

The following argument for matrlmon
was written in the olden times:
Like to ring without finger,
Or like bell without ringer,
Or like n horse that's never hidden,
Or like feast and no guests bidden,
Or like well without bucket,
Or like rose and none to pluck it;
Just such as those
May she be said,
That time doth lose,
And dies a maid,
The ring if worn
The finger deckcth;
The bell if rung
Coed music maketh.
The horse doth ease
If he be ridden;
The bucket draws
The water for thee;
The rose when plucked
Is then most worthy;
So is the maiden
In mine eys,
Who loves and marries
Ere she dies.
