Wsskly Grinity yuurnal,
THE BRIDGE OF sICHs.
Married! Married.

Married! Married.
One more unfortunate.
Long having tarried.
Rash and importunate,
Going to be married.
Wooed 50 intensely,
Loving immensely,
Too deeply to feell
Accordingly, uncommonly,
Ardently. woomanly,
Wisely and well.
Christian marriage
Who would disparage
Under the sun
Oh! it is beautiful,
In a whole city full
Loving but one!
Make no deep scrutiny
Into her mutiny
Against her own name,
Before great while,
You who scornfully smile,
Will be doing the same.
From closet to easement,
From garret to basement,
What fuss there will be-
What ribands and laces,
What impertinent faces
Coming to see!
With the "ducks" and the Gloves"
OF bonnets and gloves,
And the making of dresses
The "sweetest on earth,'
While wonderment guesses,
Mid all the rich messes,
How much he is worth"
How is her father!
Who was her mother,
Has she a sister?
And what was her brother,
And who is that dear one
Still, and nearer one
Yet, than all other?
For frienderly and brotherly,
Fatherly, niotherly,
Feelings grown strange,
Love by sweet evidence,
Raised to its eminence,
That lover will give her
Sweet comfort in change.
Give way not to weeping.
And nights without sleeping,
Ye suitors, heart-sore-
Though Of that hope bereft.
In the world few moro
OF the same kind are left
Tis sad, opinc
From visions divine,
So swift to be hurled;
Than thus to be tricked
I'd rather be kicked
Anywhere, anywhere,
Out Of the world

Lovely Waiter Girls.

San Francisco correspondent of New York
journal gives the following:
Some weeks since shrewd Yankee arrived
here from the East, and after looking around for
time, and finding that fully two-thirds of the
people of San Francisco boarded in restaurants,
concluded to go into that business. He had OBJ
served that all the restaurant-keepers employed
fat, lazy and dirty men of all nations, for cooks
and walters, and he conceived the idea that if
he employed girls-neat tidy, quick-witted and
good looking girls-for walters he would secure
large custom Immediately. He accordingly
ransacked the employment Offices for recruits,
and finally secured twelve pretty girls two of
these he placed behind the counter for money!
takers, and the remainder were inducted too
"pass around the hash" The novelty of the
thing made it take Immediately. The restaurant
was crowded from morning till night. No one
thought of eating less than twenty-five cents
worth. You must know that ii person can get
fine meal for fifteen or twenty cents), and
when they devoured thirty-seven cents worth,
they would toss the money-takers fifty cent
piece, and walk away with nonchalant air
The proprietor was in ecstacies and walked
about rubbing his hands with unctuous delight.
Many OF the customers would call for ice-cream,
and ask the fair waiteresses to join them-they
were consequently filled chock full of nice things
all the time. Matters progressed finely for sew
eral weeks, when the proprietor began to find
that his walters were not So attentive as they
ought to be that they would serve some good
looking fellow with what he would order, and
would sit down and chat with him, while other
customers were waiting to be served He repri-
manded the girls several times, but without any
effect so he determined to secnre another lot,
and discharge the whole caboodle. He began
his search for substitutes, saying nothing of his
designs One day, however, he was staggered ;
for, after the duties of the day were concluded
and the cash counted, he was asked to attend
church with the girls, as one of them going
to get married. Of course he would go, and he
would give away the bride. If they had given
him notice in time he would have given them a
nice wedding supper. An hours time suficed
for the girls to Dress and then they all proceeded
to church, where every one of them was married.
During their brief career of four weeks in the
restaurant, they had been wooed and won by
young fellows who were anxious to find compan-
ions for life, but who, owing to the peculiar
mode of life in San Francisco, had no opportu-
nifty of forming female acquaintances. The next
morning be was without walters. His establish
ment is better than matrimonial agency.

CrOQuet.

Probably nearly all of our readers are some
what familiar with the elementary principles
of this fascinating game, that has gained a
popularity in this country truly wonderful to
the uninitiated, but the most natural TO all
who understand the merits of the game.
Unlike nearly every amusement and divert
lsement that has become suddenly popular in
this county, the interest in croguet, not only
does not decrease, but universally continues
to increase year after year wherever intro
duced, and this season more sets of croduet
implements are being sold in Massachusetts,
where the game was first introduced hail
dozen years ago, than in any previous sea-
SON. Every person that has no knowledge of
the game expresses the same opinion. 81
don't see the sport in such game as that: it
seems go silly to knock balls around at ram
dom in that way" And 1t is equally true
that every person from ten years old to sixtv.
that ever played q half dozen games, is per-
fectly fascinated with it, and the more they
play the more they are interested. It is
probably fact that the game of croquet ia
not perfectly understood-in theory, even
by one in of those who consider them
selves considerably expert, and while theory
alone will lot make up for entire want Of ex-
psrience and precision in stroke, yet player
with the latter qualifications will often be
completely vanquished by player, much in
ferlor in stroke. that understands fully the
laws and tine points, so intimately are the
mental and physical qualities combined in the
game.

From the New York Evening Post, May II.
Mr.. Aiken, of the firm of Davis K Aiken,
brokers, left this city on Saturday last with
bonds in his possession estimated at about
Sl20, 000 obtained by fraudulent means =
His partner and several brokers are the
heaviest losers. 1t was at first reported
that the City Bank had lost S60 600, by
certifying checks Of the firm, but the off
GERS of the bank cay that their loss is only
S14, 600
1t is known that Mr.. Aiken bought q
large number Of securities On Saturday
afternoon, which he paid for with certi-
fed cheeks. He delivered two or three
hundred shares of stock which the firm
held as collateral, to other persons obtain
ing checks for the same These he had
certified, and it is supposed that he passed
all Of them before he left the city The
most trustworthy report fixes the amount
of the embezzlement at Sis, 600.
The house of Davis & Aiken is new

month Mr. Davis has always borne Q
good name, and is believed to have been
entirely innocent in this matter His
friends express much sympathy for him.

CHARLEY.
BY ANNA BRUCE.

Eyes of beauty, cheeks of bloom;
Dearest Charley
Heart so free from care or gloom.
Loved SO dearly.
Death has robbed the cheek OF bloom
Oh so early
How could we robe thee for the tomb
Lost one, Charley?
Ger thy pail we bowed in woe.
Unconscious Charley;
Cold the heart, the bright head low
We loved 30 dearly;
How ve miss the cheerful tone
Remembered dearly !
OH our hearts are sad and lone
Without our Charley.
How the mothers eye will dim
For her Charley,
The fathers hopes, all wrapped in him,
Crushed so early
MAY the God who gave him US.
And took him home 30 early:
Help MS in orr helplessness
To live for Charley.
n, we know the eyes 80 bright
OF our Charley,
And the brow. in Heavens swn light
Is wreathed in glory.
May we, in the better land
Through the gateway pearly.
Join with joy the shining band.
Hand in hand with Charley

Grand total

The Cubans are very scant of artillery
it is really the only obstacle which prevents
them from encountering the Spanish army
in the open field. Captain Stockton thus
relates the strange shifts to which the
Cubans are compelled to resort:
''In the matter of artillery the Cubans
are sadly deficient, and all their artillery is
included above in those armed with pistols,
sabres, &c. 1t can serve no purpose to
give here the number of cannon they had
But as [ had been in the artillery service
in the United States Army, it was quite
amusing to me to see the various shifts
they made, and tae experiments they were
then making, to supply this want. They
had tried wooden cannon in various styles,
and smile would have come over the
faces of those kings of ordnance, Dahl
gren and Rodman, could they have wit
messed their scientific and practical tests -
One cannon, made of the hardest wood
and banded with iron, burst at the fourth
round. One of iron pipe from q sugar
mill. cased with wood and fastened with
iron bands, burst at the eleventh round. =
Another iron tube, with four inches of ce-
ment, encased with heavy wood and
wrought iron bands, fired twenty -four
shots and burst. J."

How TO DIG Posi- HoLEs.-As the time
for making fence is approaching, | would
like to tell how any man may dig from lac
to $50 post holes in eight hours. The best
tool for this purpose is spade. The holes
should be two and half feet deep and the
square ofthe spade in size, and very few
need be dug larger.
After removing the soil, strike the spade
into, say. the north side of the hole; pull
the spade gently northward and upward.
without permitting the dirt to touch the
south side of tide hole, walk around the
hole; repeating the process on each side.
lou will find the dirt will adhere to the
spade, provided it is not raked off By CON.
tact with the opposite side. The left hand
need not be used, except to give direction
to the blows of the spade. The dirt is cas-.
lily removed from the spade b. striking il
into the ground
Don't be discouraged if you do not sue
coed in getting the hang" of this method
the first day. Give it fair trial. and You
VIII never use any other.-(o7 Io,ca Home

THE DEMOCRATIC members of the Indiana
Legislature are getting roundly scolded by
the Republican papers for their continued
centumacy in refusing to permit quorum
to assemble for the adoption of the fifteenth
amendment. Suppose the boot were on
the other leg, and the democrats had ma
jority and desired to pass measure obnox-
ious to the republicans--what then? 1t
makes considerable difference in politics, as
we'll as in other matters, whose OK was
gored, but, seriously, the constitution Of
Indiana must be faulty in some respect, or
proceedings like those we have recently
witnessed could not have occurred in her

The ADMINISTRATION A FAILURE. The
New York Herald of the 14th, after scath-
ing review of the acts of the present Admin
istration since the Inauguration of Grant,
sums up the situation as follows:
I'm the third month of the administra-
ton with four years before it for the devel-
opmen. off policy, if but little is promised
but little can be reasonably expected. The
promise. however upon one manifest def
cheney, is not encouraging. We refer to
the deficiency in the administration in the
sagacity to grasp, and the energy for decis-
i've action, demanded by the crisis in refer
ence to our domestic and foreign affairs.
We must have retrenchment and reform on
grand scale in our domestic affairs or a
vigorous foreign policy of expansion from
this administration, or in the elections for
the next the short method of removing our
present burden Of taxes and debt will work
another political revolution.

The Lone ISLAND AssAssINs 1t is now
generally believed by parties who have
given attention to the late and lamented
slaughteriag of human beings on the Long
Island Railroad, that the disaster is to
be attributed to wicked conspiracy on
the part of individuals on the line of the
road. 1t is shown very eonclusively that
the rail which caused the calamity was a
new American rail laid last September
The marks upon it show conclusively to
the minds of all who have examined it,
that it had been deliberately cut with a
cold chisel, and so battered after as to
make it appear like break. This is cert.
lied to by experts in the iron-working bust
ness. This railroad tragedy demands the
most searching investigation. The scoun.
drels engaged in this fearful crime should
be brought to justice. We trust the Long
Island Railroad Company will i-aya nc
stone unturned in bringing the scouudrels

INA COUNTRY where the natural desire of the
people is to reach the highest point in ART,
it is very difficult for success to be obtained
without most arduous labor. Public opinion
is extremely exacting and not always just;
but often unjust and cruel criticism has pro-
duced the most beneficial results; the great
est improvements have been made under
continued discouragements, and in many
successful efforts defeat seemed certain to all
except those concerned. In no one branch
Of art has there been more trials aud fall
ures, and in no single instrument is there 80
many different parts to perfect, in order to
make the whole success, as the Piano
Forte; this Is always attended with great ex-
pense, requiring large capital and patient
perseverance. J. b. GRovEsTEEs, SIS Mercer
street, New York, now GRo7EsTEEN, FULLER
& COMPANY, commenced manufacturing Pi-
amos thirty-eight years ago, and Is one OF the
oldest houses in the country. They aim to
make the best instrument, and sell It at the
smallest profit. These Pianos cannot be ex-
celled. Their singing quality Ia pure, full,
and easily retained through the most lengthy
passages. For power they are unparalleled,
and are celebrated for their great brilliancy,
exquisite touch, and elegance of style and
