SEEING A FIRE.-The arrangements
for extinguishing fires in Leavenworth
are not very perfect; but the citizens
generally are wide awake. As one of
the merchants-by the way dealer in
'sheap clothing'-w: passing down the
principal business street about ten o.
clock at night, he espied what appeared
to be a fire in the second story of a
building across the street. He imme-
diately raised the alarm, and rushed
across the street and commenced kick
ing in the windows to effect an entrance
all the while crying Fire freY
Getting through the aperture that be
had made, he rushed into the room, the
expectant crowd outside waiting for fur
ther orders from their leader. Hardly
had moment elapsed before he again
appeared, and cried out, in an excited
manner:
Somebody bring me light, quick,

Nice Girls.

There is, perhaps, no designation
which young ladies in general would
prefer to the expressive one of-'A
Nice Young Girl There are elegant
girls, charming girls, fascinating girls,
good girls, agreeable girls, amiable girls
and pretty girls. There is one kind of
nice girl who, by constantly asserting
Fer right, gains the title. She is not
pretty, but she has lively, piquant
manner, is a voluble talker, is amusing,
if she does not say anything clever, and
gives no one time to reflect on the val
idity of her claim to be considered nice.
The general decision on her is, well,
she is not exactly pretty, but she is a
nice girl for all that She is invaria-
bly, small, fact of which she processes
to be rather vain than otherwise; she
has jet black eyes like bright beads !;
black hair, always arranged la'Imper-
atrice; small hands and feet; dark
complexion, of which she is in the habit
of speaking disparagingly, with the OBJ
Ject of distorting remarks about nut
brown maid and all that sort of thing.
She is always we'll dressed, but she is
addicted to an eccentric style of hat
she never wears bonnet, for, if she
happens to put one on, she discovers
that she looks "a fright She plays,
sings and dances indifferently, but suf-
fciently we'll to render her a desirable
addition to party she is always ready
to join In any amusement that is pro-
posed, and is of great assistance to a
hostess in making an evening go off
with eclat. This nice girl, it is to be
observed, is rarely an aristocrat, and
belongs almost exclusively to the lower
or middle class. There is nice girl
who at first sight, might seem to nearly
resemble the languid nice girl; but in
place of being like, no two persons
could be more dissimilar One is all
softness, sweetness, languid sensibility,
and wells her selishness under treach-
erous pretence of weak dependence !;
the other bristles with pride, and locks
herself up in the armor of cold reserve
This naughty girl is tall, handsome,
stately, dressed to perfection, and car
ries herself with the suave loftlness of
an Empress She is statuesque in her
beauty, and reminds one Of Pygmalion's
craven dream of loveliness on stone,'
peerlessly beautiful, but lifeless and
cold-so icily cold that even those who
are the most vehement in her praise
would as soon think of falling in love
with the grand piano at which she pre-
sides with such surprising grace, or Of
signing for smile from the goddess
Luna, as of losing their hearts to her.
Her eyes, SO large, so dark, SO brilliant,
seem to search the soul of those on
whom she fixes her gaze, and to scare
away the timid lurking Cupid by her
disdainful glance. And one cannot re.
sist the fancy that sneer lends the
aristocratic curl to her naughty lip.

TEE MUSIC OF THE TYPES.

$780,
Click, click, click, click, all day long
Went the types from the fingers fine,
As though they were lisping mystic song,
Or whispering ghostly chime.
With a saddened brow and a sadder heart.
And bearing his burden alone,
Meath cloud of woe he followed his art,
With mystery round him thrown.
For love now lost had withered his life
To crisped Autumnal leaf,
And his maddened brain and soul in strife
Ran riot in bitterest grief.
For Reason, exiled, was lost in the dark,
Or the hot tempest fire of brain,
And even his soul, as reeling bark,
Would break, but in music pain.
His beautiful hair fell o'er his brow,
A shade. darker, too. than his eyes;
No lips kissed the curl. neglected there now,
No bosom cen answered his sighs.
And on through the dim, dewy nights 80
cool.
And all through the burning day,
He worked with the types without copy or
rule,
10 fashion his souls love-lay:
Wearying ever, as if in dream,
Till the eyelids droop at last;
But the music howeth on in a stream
Through the beautiful song that passed.
From his love-wrecked life, soothing earth
Away
With its endless melody,
Though it fed from broken Tyre that day
As he went to eternity.

SECRETARY SEWARD ON RECONSTRUCTION

SECRETARY SEWARD ON RECONSTRUCTION
Washington. March Ain conversation
yesterday with a leading member of the
Pennsylvania Congressional delegation,
Secretary Seward brought up the question
of reconstruction, and was very severe upon
Congress for their refusal to admit the
Southern delegations. The member thought
that after four years of % rebellion that it
had taken millions of armed men to sup
press, and entailed upon us debt of three
thousand millions of dollars, it was the duty
of Congress to patiently examine into the
question of whether the same men were in
a fit condition to be again entrusted with
the political power Of this Government /;
that no rebel should ever have seat in
Congress with his consent; that the policy
of the President was lamentable, as it
would prove positive injury to the South.
Mr.. Seward replied, with great deal of
warmth, that the policy was that which Mr..
Lincoln had adopted, and was carrying out
when he died, and that Mr.. johnson was
merely continuing it; that the people Of all
parties would sustain it, and there was not
rebel to-day in the whole country, and he
should not use the word. Mr. Seward is in
favor of the admission of the entire body
Of the Southern members, just as they are,
and Of the repeal Of the test oath.

thu Possibility Of Assassination.

Washington Cor Sunday Mureury.
There is reason for believing that the
President knew what he was about when he
charged upon certain Radical leaders are
determined to assassinate him. It is said
that Immediately after his veto message in
formation was forwarded to Mr.. johnson
that there was conspiracy among certain
negroes for the purpose of numbering him,
inspired as the story ran by some Radicals
sfthe John Brown stripe. The story may
appear incredible; but it should be remem-
bered that, like all other fanaticism, the an
ti-slavery agitation has developed some
very violent types of character. There are
certain enthusiasts who really believe that
II is the mission Of the nation to confer
equality upon the negro; that the time is
assumptions, and that the only obstacle
In the way Is Andrew johnson. Were
some one else than he occupying the Presi-
dency, the present Congress would enact
universal negro suffrage and the equality of
negroes before the law. That the actions
OF these wretched people can be traced to
Sumner, Stevens is, of course, incredible;
but the remarkable statement of Stevens in
the House, with out any proyocation, that
1.-THE man at the other end of the avenue
should recall the fate Of Charles the First"
excited the suspicious of the President and
together with the information he had re-
ceived, led to the remarks he made on the
subject OF his personal assassination.

What the President should dc.

The Chicago Times, in a lengthy editori-
oil under this caption, thus writes:
We do not hesitate to declare that it is
the solemn duty Of the President to follow
his words by deeds. We do not hesitate to
declare that it is the solemn duty Of the
President to command the arrest Of Thad-
deus Stevens, Wendell Phillips, Charles
Sumner, and their Confederatesin Congress
and all over the country, for the crime Of
treason. In no other way can the North
ern rebellion be promptly quelled, and the
public quiet restored.
And if the rump in Congress shall not
speedily abandon its seditious revolutions
ry, and lawless practices-if it shall persist
in excluding the Representatives Of eleven
States from their rightful seats, and in ex-
ercising the powers Of the Congress Of the
United States-we do not hesitate to de-
clare that it will become the solemn duty
of President johnson to constitute himself
the Cromwell of the time, and dissolve the
rump by military power s0S

FOREIGN APPRECIATION OF PRESIDENT
JoHxsoN.--In the British Parliament, in
the course Of the debate upon the Queens
speech, the Earl Derby said:
We must concur in rejoicing that, after
years of bloody warfare, sanguinary war
has been put an end to in the now reunit-
ed States Of America. ! fully concur with
the speech in commencing the wise and
prudent manner in which, after the war had
terminated, the President, has sought to
repair the ravages of civil war. He seems
to seek the best means of restoring the
tranquility Of the country, and we cannot
refrain from hoping that his efforts will be
crowned with success. The diminution Of
the slave trade and the abolition Of slavery
in America has entailed much misery on
the slaves themselves, and they are but
very imperfectly prepared to undertake the
duties and responsibilities Of freedom,

az Among the base fabrioations Of the
disunion presses against President johnson
says the Louisville Journal is one to the
effect that he was SO ashamed of his great
speech ON the ed ult., to the people who
called upon him, AS to forbid the operators
from telegraphing it over the country as il
was delivered; and they insinlate that the
words which were actually sent "lwere the
second, sober thoughts Of the President,
such as he and his friends concluded it
would be best to send to the fourteen lead
ing papers representing the cities from Bos-
ton to st. Louis!" We quote the words

The National Intelligencer, noticing the
statement, took the pains to test 1t, and
that journal thus nails the base fabrication:
"Our confidence that no such interfer-
ence took place we thought proper to veri-
fy by proper inquiry, and need hardly to
say that the emphatic contradiction which
we hereby make comes too late to arrest
the mean falsehood. before it had wrought
