Mexican republic, have not met with . very

long conversation with Schor Romero, he, az II
appears, closed the argument in a refusal to
introduce the delegation TO the President, hav-

Romero. General Santa Anna is persuaded to

LIGHTING OF THE DoME.-The illu-
mination of the dome of the Capitol at
Washington, by means of electrical ap-
paratus is described as grand specta-
Gle. The lighting is affected by means
of two rows of gas jets, few inches
apart, around the entire circumference
of the dome, ore at its base and the
other just underneath the canopy at the
top, on which, at heighth of near two
hundred feet, Brumidi's grand symbol
ic painting is displayed. These jets
are, by an ingenious arrangement of
conducting wires, instantaneously ignit-
ed by discharge of electricity. They
are placed so as to be invisible to the
beholder from below, but the light from
their united flames is thrown upon the
panels of the mighty arch, and concen-
trated with splendid effect upon the
magnificent fresco which surrounds the
whole. As seen by day this wonderful
painting appears. to the spectator from
beneath like an opening in the sky,
in which he gets glimpse of the world
supernal, and as he gazes with wonder
upoa the majestic forms of gods and
goddesses of that upper realm floating
among the clouds of gold and azure and
roseate hue, bending seemingly to par
ticipate in earth's affairs; until at length
he recognizes among them the gloried
faces of some of Americas departed,
and feels it reality that they still how
er over and guide the destinies of this
nation. BY night, under the powerful
illumination above described, the illu-
sion is heightened and made still more
real. No one can gaze upon the spec
tacle without emotion, or having once
seen can never forget it.

JOHN RANDOLPH HEADED Ran.

The inn-keeper was fine gentleman,

who his distinguished guest was, he en-
deavored to draw him into conversation
but failed in all his efforts. But in the
morning, when Mr.. Randolph was ready
to start, he called for his bill, which.
on being presented, was paid The
landlord still anxious to have some con.
versation with him, began as follows

The landlord by this time got some
what excited, and Mr.. Randolph drove
off. But to the landlords surprise, in
few minutes the servant came to in
quire for his master which of the road
to take. Mr.. Randolph not being out of
hearing distance, he spoke out at the top
of his voice
"Mr. Randolph you don't owe me
cent; just take which road you d-n

She stood alone-all, all alone,
That girl SO young and fair.
And in her young and joyous heart,
No thought of guile was there.
The spoiler marked her for his own
He gave her gems and gold.
And in her unsuspecting heart
A tale of love he told.
She listened to his tale of love.
And on his riches smiled;
And then it was mothers prayer
Came forth to save her child.
That sainted mother long had slept
Beneath the churchyard tree.
And years had passed since she had knelt
Beside that mothers knee.
Out from her home, up with the blest.
She watched her orphan here;
And though so lone she seemed on earth
That mother still was near.
And thus it was when subtle art
The child had soon enslaved,
The mothers unforgotten prayer
Stood forth-and she was saved
