Lament for Corny 0'Brien and
Brown, and Tim. O'Farrell also.
Gather round, ye tindher-hearted SWANS,
And parents hard and cold,
who love to break the rosy chains"
For letters made of gold.
Hang up the shutthers, thro' all the town,
While sing the song of woe,
Of Corny OBren and Peggy Brown,
And Tim. OFarrell also.
o Corny O'Brien was shoemaker,
And coorted Peggy Brown;
He vowed there was no maid like her
In famous Boston town.
Her mother kept grocerie
On the head of an apple barrel;
And sot her eyes for Peggy B.
On the soap-fat man, O'Farrell.
Now, Coruy O'Brien and Peggy Brown
Were strapping pair to see,
When they both repaired from Boston down
The Neck to Roxburee;
And climbing up on Tommys Rock,
Both hand in hand together;
Where Corny crowed like true gamecock
"Cockoo for Peg. and Leather"
When Madame Brown came this to hear,
The blood of the Irish kings
10,
'Gainst wax and such low things.
When she met o. Brien she'd welt his'sole,
And pull his bristles also;
Then she went to Firms for a flowing bowl
To dhrown her grief and woe.
And thus she cried, 'twixt ev'ry sup,
Now, Peggy ashore mac1tree,
I've raised you clane, and brought you up
Like Lady tindherlee.
If you wed O'Brien you'll break me heart;
But O'Farrell !-'twould Use me pain
To see you ride out on his soap-fat cart,
As proud as the Queen O. Spain"
Now Peggy runs off to Con. in grief;
And says, Love, we must part,
For must wed with that murdherin' thief,
Who dhrves the soap-fat cart"
Says Con. OBrien, i" is there no hope?
May the divil break their backs
Who smile on dirty grease and soap,
And frown on the men of wax.
"See, for your sake likely chap
Now dhrifts a CHASTITY wreck;
Ha, ha," he cries, and seized his strap
And hung himself round her neck.
"Peg, Peg Peg =" was all he said;
And then he kicked his last
And she fell down beside him dead
For her heart was bust and smashed.
When Farrell heard the doleful tale,
He was boiling some lovely fat
He wept and sighed, and turned quite pale,
And jumped into the vat
Now like good Christians, let US pray
His souls in Heaven, we hope;
But his body and bones were boiled that day,
And ran into bars of soap.
Poor Mrs. Brown has took to dhrink,
For the daughter that she kilt;
She kicked her store into the sink,
Where nuts and cakes were split.
Down by the say she washes clothes,
For the men of tar and rope
The only joy that cheers her woes,
OFa1reH supplies Me soap.

THE FESTIVAL AT ELBA PARK YEsTER-
DAY.-About o'clock yesterday the Rich
mond Turner'S Association marched out
to Elba Park, where they found a large
number of persons assembled to witness
or participate in the amusements of the
day.
After an hours rest, the Singing Society
Virginia, assisted by members of the
Turner's Association, sung several songs,
which elected the praise Of all present.
After this, Turner Hole made an appro-
pirate speech, as did Mayor Mayo, who was
afterwards called Upon.
The assemblage then gave their atten-
ton to diversions of various kinds, and in
this pleasant manner the winged hours
flew joyously by until the shades of eve
ming began to deepen over the beautiful
grove, when the happy thropg returned to
the city and repaired to Sauer's Monti-
cello Hotel. Here ample arrangements
had been made for ball, and soon were
the bellies and beaux whirling in the giddy
mazes Of the dance. This was kept up
until a late hour, when the tireless dancers
returned to their homes to repeat IN
dreamland the happy events of the day.

The ADAMS EXPRESS R0BBERY.-In yes
tcrday's Dispatch we mentioned that q
man named Abner Marks had been arrested
on Saturday last on the charge Of having
stolen S3l 900 from the Adams Express
Company some fifteen months ago. Since
that time kilograms have been sent to all
parts Of the country to learn something OF
the accused. Yesterday morning an an
swer was received from Chicago telling the
officers to hold the prisoner until further
orders from them.
About 4 o'clock yesterday evening an
other telegram was received from Chicago
stating that this man answered to the de-
scription Of the man who, in 1865, robbed
the company of s3l 900 somewhere in
West Virginia, had been caught with
$4,000 on his person, tried, convicted,
and sentenced to seven years imprison-
ment in the penitentiary, but had man
aged to escape from the Wheeling Jail
while there awaiting transportation to the
above-named Institution.
Yesterday our reporter visited the pri-
soner in his cell at the First station house,
and found him lying on pallet, seemingly
perfectly Indifferent to affairs generally.
He is about six feet in height, very stout,
dark complexion, and has short, thick
moustache. To the question, when did
you come to Richmond 2" he doggedly
replied, I" don't know you all; you have
nothing to do with me u" and then turned
over on his side as if to avoid further ques-
tioning.

STAND FROM UNDER. = Many OF Ihe
drivers on our streets never lose an oppcII-
tunty to place their vehicles on the ralls a;'
of the City Passenger road. The smooth
surface of the iron bars when contrasteu
with the rough paving stones offer temp.
tation which cannot be resisted. bu'
sometimes there is danger of being struck
by the street cars. Yesterday country
man, who was gliding along most beautl-
fully, failed to get entirely off before a
street car came up and give his tumbrll
cart lift, which landed it clear over on
the sidewalk. No bones were broken, but
an oath was elected from the couDtryman
which made all who heard it shudder.

DOING WELL.-Mr. George P. Morriss,

His face is so blistered that his eyes are

badly burned. Mr.. Morriss has been in
the habit of sleeping in the office Of the
mill, and but for the timely discovery oi
the fire by outside parties he would pro-
badly have lost his life.
