DR.. W. Davis, the companion in travel OF
DR.. Livingstone, lectured at Cincinnati one
evening last week:
Speaking of DR.. Livingstone, he said the
re1,ort of his death was false; that it mad
origin in the rumor circulated by a Portu-
g1ese ship captain. who dated the event
about October, 1868. This rumor was re-
futed by the fact of the Duke OF Argyle at
Bombay receiving letter from DR.. LiTings-
tone, dated May, 1869, being eight months
; after the date Of his alleged death. In
regard to DR.. LivingstoDe's discoveries, ne
said they comprised the exploration Of the
sources Of the Nile through FIVE degrees of
latitude hitherto not traversed, and that
three degrees more will be explored.

Looks longingly for them in vain.
Each costly dress, with flowing TRAM
And panier furbelowed or PLAIN
lis folded up, and laid away,
80 don again some future day.
And sparkling gems no longer deck
The rounded arm or snowy neck;
But in their caskets, safe from harm'
Are hid, by those they're meant to-chafn
rwhe street, where mirth was wont to grow
Now with devotion's current flow;
And church bells ring solemn chime
70 tell US, it's the Lental time.
Forth in the spring-time soft and ialr
zach maiden walks with downcast ar;
With flowing veil, fain would conceal
The modest glance her eyes reveal.
Her lily hands that lately gave
To spangled fan, coquetish wave,
Vow clasp velvet missal round,
Wherein the sacred cross is found.
Up the broad aisle she'll softly tread
Then meekly bow her classic head,
From rosy lips DER the still air
Come sweetly murmuring words OF prayer
Or if child of Romish creed,
uevoutly marks each crystal bead,
Or signs the cross DER her fair brow.
And lowiy kneels to Heaven now.
All bright and fair, young maidens seem
In the gay bathrooms dazzling CLEAN;
But sweeter, and by far more fair,
when bowed in humble, grateful prayer
Oh may their thoughts to Heaven go,
Nor fainting, fall to earth below:
But with Faiths pinions upward ny,
And reach the ear of God on high.
,Tis well to have this solemn rest.
From vain display and joys unblest
Its matin hymn and vesper clear,
Fall sweetly on the wearled ear.
GENEVIEYE.
