A SENSATION ITEM SPoILED.-A
report was circulated in the city yes
terday, that a raft, in crossing the
Spottsville dam in Green River, had
broken to pieces, and all On board
seven men-had persisted. After
great effort to trace the report to a
reliable source, we were gratified to
learn, that no lives were lost hat
there was no one on the raft when it
jumped the dam, the men having left
it to go over By itself. 1t is better to
have to lose first class item than to
have seven men lose their lives.

for a lawyer and asked him how much
he would take-to get-him out The
attorney told him fifty dollars. The

dollars. The attorney managed to
have the case called when there were
no witnesses present to appear against

TkU + III The GAAxs
cannot listen to your words,
The land is long and wide,
Go seek some happy Northern girl,
To be your loving bride.
My brothers they were soldiers,
The youngest of the three
Was slain while fighting by the side,
OF gallant Fitzhugh Lee.
They left his body on the field,
Your side the day had won)
A soldier spurned him with his foot,
You might have been the one.
My lover was soldier,
He belonged to Gordon's band;
A sabre pierced his gallant heart,
Yours might have been the hand.
He reeled and fell, but was not dead,
A horseman spurred his steed,
And trampled on the dying brain,
You may have done the deed.
hold no hatred in my heart,
No cold, unrighteous pride,
For many gallant soldier fought
Upon the other side.
But still | cannot kiss the hand
That smote my country sore,
Nor love the foes that trampled down
The colors that she bore.
Between my heart and yours there rolls
A deep and crimson tide
My brothers and my lovers blood
Forbid me be your bride.
The girls who loved the boys in gray,
The girls to country true,
May meier in wedlock give their hand,
To those who wore the blue.
