SORROW.

There Is no heart but hath it's inner anguish,
There is eye but hath with tears been wet,
There is voice but hath been heard to langnsh
Ger hours of darkness that it cannot forget.
There is no check, however bright its roses,
But perished buds beneath its hues are hid
No eye within its dewy light reposes
But broken star-beams tremble meath its ill.,
There is no lip, howe'er with laughter ringing,
However light and gay IFS words may he,
But il hath tremblod at some dark upspringing
OF stern afflictinn and deep misery.
We are all brothers in this land of dreaming
Yet hand meets hand and eye to eye replies
Nor deem that beneath brow all beaming
The flower of life in broken beauty lies.
OH blessed light that gilis night of sorrowi
Oh balm of Gilead for healing found,
We know that peace will come with the tomorrow
And that Affections pring not from the ground,

"Fritz, Der Dog ish Howlin !s

Those who do not believe in omens
will enjoy a laugh over the following
story; and those who do had better
pass it by, if they fear to have their
faith disturbed. An old gentleman
whose style was Germanized, was
asked what he thought of signs and

WORD AND DEED.

The world is rife with nobler thought
Than trembes on the tongue;
The world is full of melody,
Unwritten and unsung.
The music of march is sweet
But action is sublime;
And each may live nohAr verse
Than eer was told in ryme.
Sweep from nv si9ht these foolish hooks
That vrX my weary brain,
Aud | wilsit at Nature S feet
Her open page the plain
And read pleasant roundely
In every blade that grows;
A lyric in the lily's leaf
An epic in the rose
Let tinkliugs of the tongue or pen
To love-sick gifls belong
The music of well spent life
Is sweeter far than song,
It suits me not, this waste of words
Oar world were not so Gead,
If maids and men would cease to write,
And live their verse instead

THE FLIRT.

What is a firt i? How often
have We heard the question asked
how seldom answered.
All seem, more or less, to In
dulge in a little ''innocent firta'
ton" 1t is a pleasant pastime,
and they enjoy it vastly.
Even married people, nova
days, appear to have a consider
able relish for side dish Of hirta-
tion.
Now, in good, sober earnest, is
flirting an innocent amusement !
Sometimes, yes oftener, no!
Not that we think many of
these dear, delightful little crea-
lures who revel in the name of
flirt, care much. They seem to de-
light in the idea of wounding a
poor, susceptible fellow; and with
this end in view, they use all their
charms to the very best advan-
tage. =,
How cleverly they find out all
his weak points, take his heart by
storm, and then, without the sha-
dow of pity, mercy or remorse,
turn round and laugh in the poor,
deluded fellows face.
Of course there is great deal
of difference in fiirts, also in firt-
ing. There, are, for instance, the
dear, charming little creatures,
who hang confdentially upon
your arm, and look up into your
face, who drop their eyes in pref
ty, half bashful way, and sigh as
though their poor little hearts
were actually breakingfor you, and
who, all the while, are laughing
in their sleeves; for no matter how
small or tight they may be, (their
sleeves, we mean,) they manage
to laugh in them at the expense
of the poor, deluded fools, who are
conceited enough to believe they
have another to add to their list.
Then there is a bright, brilliant,
dashing flirt, who glories in her
ssname and oecupation;'' who
boasts openly ofall her conquests,
and tells you plainly to your face
she will carry off your heart in
spite of you and, to tell the truth.
she rarely fails: for no matter how
sharp a lookout you keep, that
gay young dansei will manage,
somehow or another, to take you
unawares.
And thea how she enjoys the
victory-how she laughs outright
at your woe-begone looks, and
comforts you by saying she only
did it for fun, as she chad nothing
else to do'-a great comfort to
know that your heart has been
used as a toy-as football, for
instance.
She will also console you by
saying you are not the first and
only sighing swain who is pining
for her smile; and she hopes you
will not be the last-perhaps she
has the audacity to point out her
next victim-with an encouraging
and confidential whisper, to watch
the next scene on the programme.
Strange to say, although the
young lady in question has "played
with fire" ever since she was six
teen, her heart has passed through
the flames untouched.
But still, hirts generally get
caught, and are, sooner or later.
"paid back in their own coin."

THE GROVER & BAKER
Elastic-Stitch Sewing Machines
ARE SUPERIOR TO ALL OTHERS FOR
THE FOLLOWING REASONS:

THE FOLLOWING REASONS:
1. They sew with two threads direct from the
spool0, and require no re-wir ding.
2. They are more easily understood and used =,
and less liable to arrangement than other ma
chimes
8. They are capable of executing perfectly
without change of adjustment, q much greater
variety of work than other machines.
4 The stitch made by these machines Is much
more firm. elastic, and durable, especially upon
articles which require to be washed aud lroued,
than any other stitch. ,,
s This stitch, ewing to the manner In which
the under thread is inwroCght, is much the most
plump and beautiful in use, and retains this
plumpness and beauty even upon articles fre>
ouen tly washed aud ironed until they are worn
cat.
G. The structure of tie seam is such that,
though il be cut or broken at intervals OF only
a few stitches. it will neither open, run nor
rave, but remains firm and durable.
Unlike other machines. these fasten ootn
euds of the seam by their own operation:
8, With these machines, while silk is used
upon the right or faced side ofthe seam, cotton
NAV be used upon the other side without leSsen~
ing the strength or durability of the seam This
can lie done on no other machine, and is a
great saving upon all articles stitched or made
up with silk
ricr merits as instruments for sewing oy change
of adjustment, easily learned and prsctised, exe~
cute the most beautiful and permanent en-
broidery and ornamental work.

Hcstsw Masyiaad Railroad.---The
Baltimore papers Of the 10Th instant,
contain theaanual message ofshe Mayor
Of Baltimore. in which the Western
Maryland Railroad is referred to in
terms oil Encouragement. There can
DO no doubt OF the sincerity and zeal Of
Mayor Banks in his efforts 70 maintain
the Independence Of this road, no mat
ter what may be the probabilities Of
success or failure, IN this respect. The
Mayor says oft, in connection with the
Union Railroad, that il is compelled to
stop because il is seen that the bonds
applicable for its completion will not be
adequate 10 amount IL net disposed Of
at proper prices. As these bonds can
not now be disposed OF, exccp, at ruinous
sacrifices, they are Withdrawn from the
market and work on tho road is sus.
pended until state legislation can be
procured. These works the Mayor says
must be completed, aud he takes occa.
sion to refer to similar difficulties which,
in the past, environed the B.&0. Rail
road aud the N. z. Railway, when the
city wentto their relief. This he init.
mates the city viii again do, when the
necessary legislation shall have been
obtained from the General Assembly,
aud in this connection, he urges the
importance Of competition between Rail
roads as carriers, with reference to the
distant coal.helds aud Baltimore. He
winds up his remarks on this subject
by stating that "the Western Maryland
Railroad is so far advanced that, with
the necessary means, it can be easily
completed in four mouihs."
