THE DUEL.

You need not turn so..pale. love; I'm unhurs.
Wequarreiled at the opera last night
About some trids-nay, scarce know what:
We men willquarrel for the me, est slight.
We settled time, place. weapons on the SPOT
Bots de Boulogne this morning, pistols-wen
fear that you are cold, you shudder so
At the FIRST shot my adversary fell!
Shot through the heart, nay now--don't faint
hate fainting woman. Here's your fan:
little watera So you're better now
Pray hear my story out love, If You can:
think he uttered somsthing as he fell
Awoman's name--I scarcely caught the sound:
TT passed SO quickly that am not sure
For he was dead before he reached tue ground
All, poor De Courcey! Handsome, was he not?
favorite with the ladies', believe
They'll miss him sadly. More than one fair dame.
VIII Ger his fate Ia secret sadly grisve.
How we'll he looked this morning as he stood
Waiting my IRE with such careless grace
The breezes playing with his ven curis
The sunshine lighting up his gay, bright face
Suppose my hand had trembIed! If it had,
should have fallen instead of him. You're white
AT the bare thought. Nay, here am, quite well,
And ready for the opera tonight
Ronconi plays, and would like to see
"Aarie de Rohan" once or twice again;
His acting as Ds.C5sssrezsae is sublime;
How he portrays the Jealous husbands pain!
All husbands have not suoh a wife az you;
Fair as the sun and chaste as winters moon
How very pale you still are, dearest wife.
There 10 no danger of another swoon?
How wrong was to tell you had fought
think you've scarce recovered from the shock
One kiss upon your brow, and then FIJI go:
BIT pray bs ready, love- eight o'clock.

CariOSftfes of Eating.

An old beau, formerly well known in
Washington City, was accustomed to eat but
one meal in twenty four hours if, after this,
ne mad to go to party and take second
dinner, he at nothing at all the next dav.
He died at the age Of seventy years.
A lady OF culture, refinement, Id unusual
powers OF observation and comparison be-
came widow. Reduced from affluence TO
poverty, with large family of small chill
dren dependent on her manual labor for
daily food, she made variety of expert
ments to ascertain what articles could be
purchased for the least money, and would,
at the same time ago farthest," by keeping
her children longest from crying for some
thing % eat. She soon discovered that when
they ate buckwheat cakes and molasses, they
were quiet for a longer time than after eating
any other kind of food.
distinguished judge Of the United States
District Court observed that, when he took
buckwheaf cakes for breakfast he could sit
on the bench the whole day without being
intentionally hungry; if the cakes were
omitted, he felt obliged to take lunch about
noon. Buckwheat cakes are universal fa-
vorite at the winter breakfast table, and
scientific investigation and analysis has
shown that they abound in the heat forming
principle hence nature takes away our appe-
tite for them in summer.
During the Irish famine, when many died
of hunger, the poor were often found spend
ing their last shilling for tea, tobacco and
spirits. 1t has also been observed in New
York, by those connected with charitable
institutions, that when money was paid to
the poor, they often Laid out every cent in
tea or coffee, instead of procuring the more
substantial food, such as meal, and -four and
potatoes. On being reproyed for this ap-
parent extravaganza and improvidence, the
reply in both cases, was identical; their
own observation had shown them that a
penny's worth Of tea, or tobacco, or LIQUOR,
would keep off the sense of hunger than a
penny's worth of anything else. Scientific
men express the idea by saying, sTea, like
alcohol, retards the metamorphosis of the
tissues in other words, it gives fuel to the
fame Of life, and thus prevents it from con-
suming the fat and hesh of the body.
If person gets into the habit Of taking
lunch between breakfast and dinner, he will
very soon find himself getting faint about
the regular luncheon time; but let him be so
pressed with important engagements for
several days in succession as to take nothing
between meals, 1t will not be long before he
can dispense with his lunch altogether
These things seem to show that, to a certain
extent, eating often is mere matter of hab-
it. Whole tribes Of Indian hunters and
trappers have been known to eat but once in
twenty four hours, and that at night

Idly they laughed, like other gns'

Comb out their braios ana cnH"'
Robes Of satin and Brussels lace,
Knots of flowers and ribbons, TOO,
Scattered about in every place,
For the revel is Though.
And Maud and Madge In robes of white,
The prettiest night-gowns under the sun;
stcckingless, slipperless, sit in the night
For the revel is done. - - e.. =
SIT and comb their beautiful hair,
Those wonderful waves Of brown and god,
TIL the fire is out In the chamber there,
- And the little bare feet are cold
Then out Of the gathering winter chill,
"A out or the bitter st. Agnes weather,
VII lie the fire Is cut, and the house Is stu,
Maud and Madge together.
Maud ani Madge in robes of white,
The prettlest Dightgowns under the sun,
Curtained away from the chilly night,
After the reTel Is done,
Float along in splendid dream,
To golden gittern's tinkling tune,
While thousand lustres shimmering stream,
In palaces grand saloon.
Tropical doors sweeter than musk,
Men and women with beautiful faces
And eyes Of tropical dusk.
And one face shining out like star,
One face haunting the dreams Of each,
And one voice sweeter than others ara,
Breaking into silvery speech.
Telling through lips of bearded bloom,
An old, old story over again,
As down the royal hammered room,
To the golden gittern's strain,
Two and two they dreamily walk
While an unseen spirit walks beside,
And, all unheard 10 the lovers talk,
He claineth one for bride.
Oh Maud and Madgs dream on together
With never paDg Of jealous fear
For, ere the bitter St. Agnes weather
shall whiten another year,
ROBBED for the bridal and ROBBED for the tomb,
Braided brown hair and golden tress,
There'l be only one of you left for the bloom
Of the bearded lips to press.
Only one for the bridal pearls,
The robe Of satin and Brussels lace
Only one to blush through her curls
AT the sight Of lovers face.
Oh! beautiful Madge, in your bridal white
For you the revel has just begun;
But for her who sleeps in your arms tonight,
The revel Of Life Is donel
But robed and crowned with your sanity bliss,
Queen Of heaven and bride of the sun,
Oh beautiful Maud, you'll never miss
The Kisses another hath won!

AN AFFLICTED EDIToR.-The Charlottes-
vile (Va.l Chronicle has grown desperate
over the learning that surrounds him:
Charlottesville is fairly entitled to be
called the literary centre of the South
There is, first, the University of Virginia
with its learned professors on all sorts of
subjects. Then we have two large female
seminaries, where young ladies learn thirty
or forty things ending in--ology Then we
have some half-dozen frst-class academies
for boys. Then several select schools. Then
number of schools for the English branches
And then the whole cOlored population, of
all sexes and ages. is repeating from morn
ming to night, a-b--ab; b-eb lib !;
c-a-t-cat; d-o-g-dog; c-u-p-cup ETC.
through all the varieties of the lesson in
photography. There are some four or FIVE
colored schools, and little negro chaps dark
en- every door with primers in their hands
If we pass blacksmith shop, we hear alb -
alb; if we peep into a shoemaker's shop, it
is a-b--ab; if we pass negro cabin in the
suburbs of the town. we hear the sound of
a-b--ab if cook goes out to suekle her in
FAINT, it is a-b-ab; the dining-room servant
washes up his dishes and plate, crying alb
alb Jerry blacks boots, saying, with rapid
strokes, a-b-ab: the whole air is resonant
with a-b-ab. The little yellow boy who
sleeps in our chamber awoke US the
other night, muttering a-b--ab. Mr.. Greeley
has stirred up thunder here. If you send a
little negro boy on an errand, he is spelling
everything he meets in one syllable. The
little white boys look at them wonderingly,
and try to cork them. In month or so we
expect TO issue an evening edition of the
Chronicle in monosyllables, to increase our
circulation - perhaps a pictorial with tubs
and spades, and ants and cows, and owls and
bats-like the primers.
