POETRY.
ALONE.

He came to-day. He brought his bride,
And through the woods they went with me
We passed our ancient trysting place;
/ saw him turn his head aside.
And wondered if his glance would fall
On letters carved by him of yore,
In days that he regrets no more
That with burning thoughts recall.
The golden Past, that haunts me yet,
Whose faded glory seems to him
Like twilight distance, cold and dim
Oh, strange it is how men forgetl
Yet through those hours my will was strong
To school my heart to stife pain
could not act that farce again
But night came, though the day was long.
Night came they went. His farewell tone
Rings in nay ear. Twill be the last!
My hearts fierce ordeal is past;
Beneath the stars / stand alone.

ELEVEN VALUABLE BUILDING LOTS FOR

This property stands next to the centre of bust
in the city, and is so located as OF necessity
it must Immediately be brought into requisition
for business purposes, in view of the rapidly i'm
proving condition of the city, and consequent ex-
tension of Stores for the accommodation OF trade.
The location of this property is midway be-
tween the Market House and the Depot Of the
Norfolk and Petersburg Railroad, which will be
in operation now in a few months. 1t is also
equally close to most ofthe steamboat landings And
the entire site presents an unsurpassed location
for new Hotel, which the increasing business of
the city already calls loudly for. A Hotel built
on this entire property could be arranged to have
two fine Stores on Main street and the Hotel en-
trance, besides eight or ten Stores on Nebraska
street, all of which could be rented at once, so
great is the demand for business locations.
If not sold entire, the property will be divided
off into eleven Building Lots of rs feet front each,
