PoErrc We last evening saw the
young gentleman whom we supposed to
be the author of the following lines. He
was returning home at rather late hour
and from his efforts to retain the perpen-
dicular we thought the pavement must
be somewhat slippery. This poetic effort
which in good sooth is said to contain
"more trxsh than poetry" he was re-
peating:

GENTLEMEN, the ladies will not go to

CALL AND SEE HIM.-f there is any
one thing in business intercourse aud as
sociations that is more pleasant than an
other, that one thing is to have your
transactions fall among courteous and OBJ
liging gentlemen who seem to take pleas
ure in serving the public and al who are
through the channels of business brought
into their presence. Persons of the above
class are not over numerous. but We will
name one in our midst who answers to
the above description exactly-Mr. S. G..
Bridges, proprietor of the large aud su-
perb jewelry store situated on the corner
of Main and Fifth streets. Of all the
corps of obliging gentlemen, We do not
know of one who has given more general
satisfaction than he. His establish
ment is one of the largest and most
complete in the West, aud it is veil
worthy of visit; for in no place in the
city is the useful and ornamental so near
ly combined, nor the same degree of
taste displayed in the selections. The
visitor will almost imagine, when inside
the door, Che couldn't begin to imagine
it oatside), that he had been spirited
away to soma fairy spot described in the
Arabian Nights Entertainment, where
but to desire was to receive, and where
the magic touch turned every thing into
gold. But it is useless for US to attempt
to describe it; SO We will say call there
and procure your holiday presents, and
examine for yourselves.

OWEN LovEJoY.-"Perley," of the Boston
Journal, gives the following brief aud truth.
ful notice of Hon. Owen Loyejoy, of Illinois,
who lectured in this city on Saturday eve
niug:r
One OF the biavcst hearted Yankees in the
House OF Representatives is tue Hon Owen
Lovejoy, who was born In Maine ia 1911 -
followed the plough until eighteen years of
age = taught school TO acquire funds with
which TO pay his way through Bowdoin Col
lege, and then cmigI ated Westward 10 settle
down as Congregational clergyman. After
preaching half dozen years he was elected
to the State Legislature, and la 1856 he came
here TO take scat in the House His brother.
1t will be remembered, was one of the first
martyrs to the barbarsm of slavery, and he
has ever waged bold warfare against that
peculiar institution. He is a sturdy. .ssopest
walking man, and his frame, like his iIifnd. is
compact aud well knit together. His thick.
curly hair, his clear, courageous eye and his
quadrangular breadth of features, show that
he is not to be put down easily when he takes
stand, neither will he sacrifice principle for
the sake Of party. just now he is chairman
OF Committee on this District, and it is funny
TO sec the descendants of the F. f. VS., who
want appropriations for the benefit of their
property, come hat in hand to petition the
sturdy covcnantcr, who in his heart despises
them. Taken all in all there is probably less
discount to use camp phrase) upon Owen
Lovejoy than upon any other member of the
present Congress.

~ well known General the other day
said: "When President Lincoln issued his
first call for 1900 troops / told him that at
least 100000 soldiers were needed. That had
been South, had seen the carnestness Of the
rebels and knew he had not called for half
enough men. However it is just as well.
Had 100000 soldiers taken the field ut the
nrst, the rebellion would have been crushed
and The Union restored with slavery us il was.
Now that system is dead. am not a religious
man. do not claim TO be a very benevolent
man. l care very little for the negroes. in fact

The Search ON board the New England.

Some OF the St.Jolin papers are endeavoring
TO get up sensation on account of the search
instituted by Capt. Field, of the steamer New
. England, as she was about to leave ST. John on
Thursday morning of last week The follow
ing is the statement Of J. S. Hay Esq. editor of
the Calais Herald, who was Oh board at the
time of the search:
Capt. Field explained to the passengers why
he considered this course necessary aud re-
marked that ii any persons on board did not
wish TO submit to the proceeding it was not
compulsory on them to remain The affair
was conducted quietly. No baggage was
searched, and so far as we could learn there
was not man on board who made any serious
complaint on the subject Most of them in re-
ferring TO the matter invariably did so with
much levity. The proceeding was not only
proper aud advisable but was rendered abso-
lutcly necessary by what had previously tran
spred. The plot TO take the Chesapeake was
concoctcd in st. John. A plot to take the
New England was known to have been con-
templatcd there by rebel agents and their al
lies. Nothing but this proceeding could have
prevented these desperadoes from carrying
out their plans
The capture of the Chesapeake showed that
the life and property of no man were sale
while tue steamer was in the hands OF such
desperate Williams. So it would have been il
they or the like OF them had got possession of
the steamer New England. To prevent such
a consummation,. aud to save the lives of
those who embarked with him, Capt Field
was justified in taking this mild measure OF
pDcaution, which was exercised in such a
manner as 10 give no offence whatever to pas
sengcrs. ltwas for their interest and their
welfare that il was done and those who talk
about sustaining the dignity Of our Quucu
and call this gross outrage &c. give un-
mistakeable evidence that their sympathies
are with the lawless inarauders who are
ready for fresh deeds of piracy on our coast.
We are glad for the credit of that city TO
be able TO say that the police magistrate of
St John fully sanctioned the proceeding. 1t
Is in bad taste for citizens of St.John to speak
OF this as an "outrage" in the face of such ad-
vantages a. they derive from the running of
these steamers TO their port, and which they
would not enjoy were it not for the enterprise
and liberality displayed by men who reside on
this side of the border"
