THE bark "Orsina," Capt. Hiram smith
Chas. Smith, Mate, sailed from Key West
March II 1866, bound for Liverpool, Eng, and
has never since been heard from. The Cap
tains wife and three child rem were on board !
A gallant bark sped on her way,
Full freighted with a costly store,
Across the broad Atlantics wave,
Bound to fair Albion's distant shore.
The restless pillows bore her on, ..
Fresh breezes waited from the shore,
And eyes were gazing on the land
They should behold again no more.
Her destined port was never gained,
No tidings came the heart to cheer
With anxious fears so deeply paile"'
As slowly waned the closing year.
o. odl what treacherous wave enguiphed
The GOOD ship on her lonely way
What nerils on the mighty deep
Resat her course by night or DAY!
n WHARF are they, the strong and brave,
n The nrattling Babes the mother lair?
WAS there no arm the crew to save
In the dreary hour dark despair?
Go ask the wave, that murmers on, s...-s
Or breaks in foam along the deep,
Where the ill-iated bark went down,
Or where the persisted wanderers sleep.
In vain, in vain, the yearning cry,
Above them oceans pillows ROLL
Far down in soundless depths they lie,
But waters cannot quench the soul. SAP
Immortal as the Eternal power
Who gave it conscious being here
1t leaves its prison house of clay
And rises to purer sphere.
Then, stricken mourners weep no more,
Thy loved ones dwell among the Dies''
Safe landed on a brighter shore,
The storm-tost mariners snail RESI-.

Iunumerable are the anecdotes in circula-
ton of the practical jokes perpetrated by Ar
temus " ard. The Cleveland Herald gives
great number, some of which have not before
been ip print:
A curious adventure befel him on his way
North, and we give it as told TO us by himself
In village in Southern Ohio, Browne and a
fellow "jour" found themselves completely
strapped" and with no prospect of obtaining
work or help of any kind. Brownies com
panion hit on lucky idea. Browne was to
remain quiet at the hotel while his companion
made acquaintance outside, and by his re-
marks led the people to believe that Fletcher
Webster was stopping in town. The scheme
succeeded. The magnates of the town hastily
thered and paid their respects to Fletcher
Webster" who soon found himself holding
levee, attended by nearly all the population.
A complimentary supper was given and
presents forced upon him. When the pair
took their departure, a day or two afterward,
the landlord refused to take any pay, esteem
ing the honor of entertaining a near relative
OF the "Great Expounder" to be more than an
equivalent for the board and lodging furnish
ed. Unhappily, however, the trick was dis
covered soon after the pair of friends left the
place, warrant was issued and they were
pursued by the constable and landlord. The
1ugitives seized hand car and attempted to
escape by its means on the track, but were
overhauled, brought back and locked up. The
Justice, however, either found the law had no
hold on the practical jokers, or thought the
whole affair good joke, for they were allow
ed to go free. tr 1A ia'

Asuggestive sarcasm is told of the prompt
er OF the Theatre Dejazet. The other day a
young lady of the company arrived an hour
late at rehearsal. The prompter was inclined
to scold. "It wasn't my fault" said the ac-

three-quarters of an hour crimping my hair"
The prompter calmly rejoined, "What then
