MAY FAETY.-Wc yesterday afternoon
attended the May party given by the Ia
dies of the Academy of Visitation, and
were amply repaid for our visit by the
performances we there witnessed. Misses
Annie List and Blanche McAfee were
chosen Queens, and the browning ccre-
mony was truly grand. The Queens,
having received their crowns, were con-
Quoted to the throne by their maids of
honor, Misses Hattie Postlewait, Jennie
Campbell, Kate Tcarney, Dette Birming-
hans, Angie Williams, Mollie Delaplain,
Louisa Moore and Mary Campbell. Be
fore the Queens seated themselves upon
the throne, a neat and well timed adj
dress was delivered to them by Miss
Edith Healey, which WAS responded to
in admirable style by Miss List, Il of
the Queens.
After the maids Of honor had each com
plimcnted the crowned ladies i'll brief
aad appropriate terms. the May pole, DO
dccked with flowers and ribbons, was
placed III the centre of the spacious hall,
and some six Gr eight yonug misses trip
ped around thcroom like so many fairies.
The Highland Fling was admirably per-
formed 10y Misses Louisa Swartz and Cora
M'Afec, and from that time until the
close of the entertainment dancing and
m~crry-making appeared to he the order
of the day. The music was furnished by
T. T. Cocaync's string band.
The entertainment was well gotten up,
and all participating in the performances
appeared to enjoy them hugely, while tho
admiring crowd of spectators were
charmed with the festive and hilarious
proceedings.

The Poverty of Statesmen.

Statesmen who are worthy OF the ap-
pellation given them, generally fail to Sc
cure fortunes. They devote themselves
to pursuits, which, if honestly adhered to
rarely yield rich rewards.
Jefferson died comparatively poor. In
deed, if Congress had not purchased his
library and given him, five times its
value, he would, with difficulty, have
kept the wolf from his door.
Madison saved money, and compara-
lively rich To add. to his fortune, how
ever, or rather to that of his widow, Con-
gress purchased his manuscript papers,
and paid thirty thousand dollars for them.
James Monroe, the sixth President OF
the United States, died in New York, so
moor that his remains found resting
place through the charity of one Of his
friends. They remain in cemetery in
School street, but no monument marks
the spot where they repose.
John Quincy Adams left some hund-
red and fifty thousand dollars, the result
of industry, prudence and inheritance
He was man of method economy.
Martin Van Buren, died very rich
Throughout his political life he studious-
ly looked out for his own interest 1t is
is not believed that he ever spent thirty
shillings in politics. His party shook
the bush and he caught the bird.
Daniel Webster squandered some mil
lions in his life hme, the product OF his
professional and political speculations-
lie died, leaving his property to his chil,
dreu, and his friends. The former sold
for less than twenty thousand dollars
the latter exceeded two hundred and fifty
thousand.
Henry Clay left very handsome es
tate. 1t probably exceeded one hundred
and fifty thousand dollars. He was
prudent manager, and a scrupulously
honest man. :,
James X. Polk left about one hund'
red and fifty thousand dollars-fitty thous,
and of which he saved from his Presidency
of four years.
John Tyler left thirty thousand dollars
Before he reached the Presidency he was
bankrupt. In Office he husbanded hl'
means, and then married very wealthy
wife.
Zachary Taylor left one hundred an(
fifty thousand dollars.
Millard Fillmore is wealthy man ant
keeps his money in very strong ant
safe box. 1t will never be wasted IL
speculation, or squaudered in vice.
| Ex-President Pierce saved some flit.
thousand dollars from his term OF ser
vice. "a,

Strike Hard.

The New Workers have taken up the sub
ject of the beef cXtortion, aud very active
movement is going or for the purpose of in
ducing strike against the butchers. These
cormorants still charge from thirty to fort,
cents per pound for beef in this city, al
which rates a steak sufficient for poor mans
family costs him the product of two days
labor.
The New Workers arc adopting the sug-
testions we made to our readers some
weeks since, and a correspondent Of the
Times writes TO that journal as fellows:
We-that is few families in Hobo
ken-have formed an anti-meat club. There
are seven of such families. We have mu.
:ually pledged each other TO totally abstain
from meat for two weeks from this day.
Thursday Here is a beginning at least
Who will be next The process is simple
The men folks talked it over on Wednesday
morning on the boat, settled the matter at
their homes at night, and will honestly ad-
here to their resolve. ONE OF THEN
Combine and conquer, and let the watch
word be NO more meet at present prices.
1t will do US good 10 avoid eating meat al
this season of the year.

went home to rejoice with trembling a
| the success of the strategem.
Surprise, joy, and some distrust perva
ded the minds of the assembly of temper
ance brothers when Mr. Rose walked in.
He was invited to walk forward and ask
ed to speak whatever he wished
He rose and told his tale of the day,
and then added, "When [ saw how my
angel daughter was transformed into a
low, filthy creature; when | knew how
much lower she would have to descend if
she went with me, | abhorred myself
She vowed to go every where went, and
do everything l did.
Could [ see her do that Her lowell
ness stained-her character ruined-she
pure as an angel? No sirs IF it kill
me [ will leave off, and never touch, taste
or handle from this night henceforward
and forever. And now gentlemen, help
me to be man again"
The building vibrated with the cheer
ing, stamping and clapping, and gush
OF song rose from those manly hearts
which might have been heard for miles.
Oh, "there is joy in heaven even over
one sinner that repenteth" and why
should there not be on earth?
We hope no other daughter will have
to resort to so painful a remedy to save
father.
