s THE CARNIVAL. Or VENICE.''

SSTktk CAISSkt Al OF
The sun looks out from Southern sky
Upon a merry scene,
And CAV Nenecians quickly HE
With ringing laugh and sparkling eye
And stately, gallant mlen.
They too are here-my noble lord,
And she, his lady fair,
The tiny foot is in slipper cased,
The crimson dress Of satin laced
O'er misty laces rare.
With love so sad, and eyes so full,
Sweet eyes which must not weep;
For she is wife to him who holds
The dainty arm in satin folds,
And, hushed, her sorrows sleep.
But he is uGar-SOme one l5 near
With sWeetly low guitar,
Who sings to her Of other days,
The plaintive heart awakening lays,
And happiness-alas afar
For him is turned the graceful head,
For him the sorrowing smile,
Full well she knows those living eyes,
Yet TO her lords words and replies
She answers all the while.
The brewn-eyed flower girls envying gaze
Is on the lady fair,
SO lovely is the shoulder white
On which the jewels break in light,
So golden is her hair.
She wears no mask upon her face.
In dancing takes no part,
But dream you in your envy, girl,
That she with rare and radiant curl,
Wears closely masked her heart.
All, happier you with only flowers
To wreathe your floating hair,
Than she who pride OF bower and hall
Can summon vassals at her call
And reign as sovereign there.

Wonderful If True-DiscOvery Of "a New
Race OF Men (perhapsl in Missouri.

A correspondent writing from New HAM
burg, Scott county, Mo, with whom we
happen not to be acquainted, informs Us us
that two of the citizens of the county, while
out hunting their cattle on Birds island a
few days ago, discovered " three most sin
gular Individuals, men, in fact, with mo
covering for the body except the hair,
which was from one to two inches long. "
These individuals, it appears, had human
voices but understood nothing that was
said to them. One of them, it is said, els
evidently very old man, as he is quite
gray all over" As they proved not to b..
very belligerent, the two farmers captured
them; and our correspondent says they
were to be forwarded to st. Louls IN few
days.
The story is wonderful enough if true. -
The arrival of the " individuals in this
city Will. however, dispel any doubt as tt
their existence and identity with their de
scription.-tSt. Louis Republican, 16th.

RAISING WHEATON, the outskirts OF
Salisbury is a piece of land containing
five acres, belonging to Mr.. Thomas E.
Brown. After gathering a good crop OF
corn and peas off this lot late last fall, Mr..
Brown broke it up deep with tWo-horse
plow and then narrowed it. Upon the five
acres thus prepared, he sowed tice bushels
of Baltimore white wheat, plow1ng 1t II
with a shovel plow and afterwards using
the harrow.

out two hundred and tifty-five large shocks

The telegraph announces that the ha-

Popery, led to great disturbances at Bir-

people we've in tho streets. The mob held
the city, sacked several houses, and marched
through the streets against "Glory Halle

ruses. The riot act was read. Troops were
ordered to the city from Manchester, but
were not obliged to fire upon the people
The police used their cutlasses, and sew
eral persons were wounded, but none were
killed The excitement is now somewhat
lulled and it is thought that the distur--
bance was ended. Murphy has persisted
every night in making long and offensive
speeches against the Roman Catholic
Church, ridiculing its rites. Some at
