What's the use Of always frctting
At the trials We shall find
Ever streWn alon: the pathway?
Travel on, aud never mind"
Travel onward working. hoping:
Cast no lingering glance behind
AZ the trials once encountered;
Look ahead, and "neycr miad."
What is past u past forever,
Let all tho frrt,ing bc resigned
II will never help the natter
DO your best, and never mind"
And if those who might befricnd you,
Whom the ties Of nature bind,
Should refuse 10 do their sluty,s
Look 10 Heaven, and never mind"
Friendly words arc often spoken
When the feelings are unkind;
Take them FOR their real value.
Pass them on. and "ueser mind"
Fate may threatsn. clouds may lover,
Enemies may be combined
II YOUR trust ia God IL steadfast.
He will help you. never mind"

A SOLITARY AUDIENoE.-The mana
ger of country theater looked into the
house between the acts and turned with
face of dismay to the prompter, with
the question of "Why, good gracious,
where's the audience Z" "Sir," replied
prompter, without moving muscle, she
is just now gone to get some beer" The
manager wiped the respiration from his
brow and said, "Will he return, do you
think 2" "Most certainly; he expresses
himself highly satisfied with the play,
and applauded as one man." '"rhen let
the business proceed" exclaimed the
manager proudly; and it did proceed.

taied on an appeal by the defendant from the
Judgment Of Justice Bell. The suit was

bounty OF 500, due the plaintiff as the mother
OF Noah Jenkins, of Company A, 18th United
States colored troops, who died in the service
1t was su omitted on the papers in the case and
the facts admitted. 1t was shown that the
plaintiff gave VIM. B. Hill power Of attorney
in 1854 to collect the bounty, and subsequently,
gave power of attorney to j b. Creager TO col.
lect the money in the hands of Hill. That
Creager assigned his power Of attorney to VIM.
A. Simpson, the defendant. The plaintiff

was refused, when suit was brought. The
question raised was whether Creager had
power to sell under the assignment. (which
was in the usual form.l The court decided
that he had not, and as there was no evidence

POLITICAL AFFAIRS IN ALABAMA.-The
Alabama Legislature will probably do nothing
relating 10 the Presidential election until the
committee sent TO Washington return. A large
number Of the members are opposed 10 an elec-
uon by The people, and will prevent IL if they
can. The memorial adopted by the Legislature,
and taken on by the fve Republicans, alleges
that there is really no respect for the laws in
that State, and that the civil officers are pre-
vented from discharging their duties by
threats from the people. At meeting of the
people OF Montgomery 10 take action about the
said memorial, resolutions We're adopted: That
the declaration of facts and apprehensions in
the said memorial are untrue IN every particu-
lar. That We do solemnly declare our conylc-
ton, that the people of this State Were never
more peacefully disposed than at present, and
never more ready TO render prompt obedience
to The existing laws. That the SAID memorial
Is prompted by partisan spirit, which, for
the tenn porary success OF certain parry or
pClocy, would wreck the prosperity OF the
State, and plunge II INTO the horrors Of a civil
war. That the people of Alabama, knowing
the rectitude of their intentions. and fearing no
molestations from an army of the United States
troops, would protest against the introduction
OF such an army into our midst as violation
of the Consultation of the United States, and as
an unjust imputation upon our character and
conduct. That we cordially endorse the letter
of General K. l.. Lee and others, in reply TO
General Rosecr ans, and do solemnly declare
our belief that the sentiments OF that letter are
the sentiments of the people; that we are peace
full and law-abIding, and Will do nothing and
will countenance nothing in others tending to
domestic violence, &c, &c.
