The Poor WHITES OF THE SoUTH-Two
OF these semi-savages had resolved to move to
the West, in hope of lettering their condition.
One wished to move to Arkansas, the other to
Texas. The wife of the former wished TO go
to Texas, and the latter TO Arkansas. Their
husbands were DESTROYS of gratifying their
spouses, but could devise no plan that seemed
likely to prove satisfactory till one day when
hunting, finding game scarce, they sat down
upon log, when the following dialogue took
place.
Exit, I'm sort pestered about Dilsie. She
swars to Rackensack she'll go, and no whar
else. alters had a hankerin' arter Texas.

me to Arkansas, and the more / coax the

"Nuif sed, eff the women's agreed"
Home they went, and stated the case to the
women, who, after due elaboration, acceded
to the proposition, having also made salts
factory arrangement about the children, and
they all soon went on their way rejoicing to
their respective destinations in that

ANOTHER GHOST SToRY.-A LADY,. the wifi

ANOTHER GHOST SToRY.-A lady, the wife
of wealthy merchant, died recently after a
protracted illness; and on the evening of her
decease, her husband, DESTROYS to pass soli-
tary hour with the body. sent the nurse
(who was watching beside the corpse,) out of
the room. Before the expiration of an hour,
the bell by which the deceased had been In the
and the woman, fancying the unfortunate wild
over was taken suddenly i'll, hurried into the
room.
He dismissed her angrily, at the same time
protesting that he had not rung. Shortly af-
forwards, the bell was rung second time,
when the woman observed to one Of the serv-
ants that she should not mind the summons, as
the gentleman might again repent having sum-
moned her, and dismiss her ungraciously.
" 1t cannot be my msster who is ringing
now," replied the servant, !" for l have this
moment left him in the drawing ROOM"
And while he was still speaking the bell of
the chamber of death rang third time, and
still more violently than before.
The nurse was literally afraid TO obey the
summons: nor was it till several of the SER
wants agreed TO accompany her that she could
command sufficient courage. At length they
ventured TO open the door, expecteg to dis
cover within some terrible spectacle.
All, however, was perfectly tranquil; the
corpse extended upon the bed under the sheet.
which was evidently undisturbed. Such, how
ever, was the agitation of the poor nurse that
nothing would induce her to remain alone with
the body; and one Of the housemaids accord
ingly agreed to become her companion in the
adjoining dressing-room.
They had not been there many minutes
when the bell again sounded; nor could there
be any mistake on the subject, for the bell
wire passing round the dressing-room was in
motion, and the servants in the offices could
see the vibration of the bell. The family but
Ter accordingly determined to support the
courage of the terrified women, by accompa-
nyng them back to the dressing-room, In
which they were to sit with the door open, so
as to command view of the bed.
These precautions efiectually unraveled the
mystery. A string had been attached to the
bell-pul to enable the sick lady to summon her
attendants without changing her position
which string, still unmoved, hung down upon
the floor, and a iavorite kitten, that was often
admitted into the room to amuse the invalid,
having entered the chamber unobserved, was
playing with the string, when becoming en-
tangled with pussy's feet, had produced the
panic.
But for the courage of the butler, and for
this fortunate explanation, the family mansion
would have been classed amang the list Of
haunted houses, and probably deserted, until
it became dismantled and ruined.

POETRY.
Talk to me, Allie.

Talk to me, darling Allie,
Talk to me, love, tonight;
Tell me some sweet, sad story,
Here by the dim fre-light;
Sing me some quaint old ballad,
OF love, and of loves despair,
And I'll sit here at your feet, Allie,
And comb out my braided hair.
Never mind me if weep, Allie,
MY heart is full of tears;
You see the shadows on the wall
They are formless, like my fears;
cannot tell you whence they came,
Nor when they will depart;
But know they gather in, Allie,
And darken all my heart.
You hear the storm-wind, Allie,
Twill through the darkling night;
Just think how the forest branches
Against it toss and ight;
They know not why they are troubled,
Tossing in wild unrest;
And it's something like the forest, Allie.
This feeling in my breast.
There's the surging and the wailing,
Like the sound of the wordless woe,
As the tempest falls and freshens,
Now high, now wild AID low.
But sing some quaint old ballad,
or love, and of loves despair,
As sit here at your feet, Allie,
And comb out my braided hair.
