Progress in Kentucky.

Tho people Of Kentucky have been
more tardy tran those Of any other
State in allowing the negroes their
rights under the constitutional amend
mcnts But the provisions If the
amendmcts arc SO plain, and the
overtmoaof them is SO hopeless, that
they are gradually and peaccably
submitting.
Last winter the officers of the horse
railroad in Louisville refused to let
negroes ride in their cars. A writ
was brought by order Of the ne
groos against company as q test,
and pending the decision tho negroes
generally submitted to the rnle of the
railroad officers. A few days ago the
court decided that the negroes were
entitled to ride on the cars or any
other public conveyance. The nc
grocs Immediately avuiled themselves
of their right. Several attempt
we're made to still keep them off the
cars, and for time there was much
excitement. Finally the railroad
companies held consultations and
agreed that it would be useless to
continaethc policy Of excluding the
negroes, and the excitement has sub
sided.

LUCILLE'S MISTAKE.

The visit over, bidding her adieu,
I took my hat, and, bowling low, withdrew,
Then, starting homeward, soon | missed my
cane,
Retraced my steps and rBng the bell again.
I heard q rush-the door few open wide
And with bound Lucille was at my side.
Around my neck her lovely arms she threw,
Kissed me. We gods she kissed me through
and through.
Stock still stood, not daring to return
The glowing kisses that my lips did burn.
I tried to speak, and gasped, 81 clean forgot
left my cane" She started as if shot,
And cried, with sobs she vainly tried TO
smother
s'Oh DEAR Oh dear thought twas Dan,
my brother.
What shall do?'' she asked me DER and DER.
lacked the courage to say ''Do it more -
SO, looking sheepish, seized upon my stick
And forthwith homeWard trOtted double
quick.
When on my couch IN vain I courted sleep;
tossed-and pondered, 'What wealth OF
love
That girl possesses, other girls above!
And if brother she should hold so dear
What must husband to her heart appear %
The idea grew and-well, to end the tale,
/ sought her often, and to such avail,
That ere tWelVemonth its full course had
run
[ wood, won Ler-and we twain were one
anu once LOlu ueF GuaG my rove began
The night she kissed me in mistake for DAM
"For Dan:" said she; why, bless your
stupid head,
Poor brother Dan was safe and snug in bed
''You didn't know it ~ "Why of course,
did,
And in my breast her blushing face she hid
Through all these years did not once regret
My having fallen in the trap she set.
I'm happy, and happy, too, I've made her,
Although at times I laughingly upbraid he.
And then she says, 1.-THE moral, dear, Of
this is,
That girls don't often make mistakes in
kisses ~

LILY MERRILL.
BIZ GEORGE d. PRENTICE.

I've looked on many lovely face
In cold New England's stormy cline,
I've knelt to Woman's floating grace
Beneath the orange and the lime
I've heard, through all our mighty land
Her soft tones thrill upon the air,
And sometimes dartd to battle my hand
Amid the bright waves of her hair
I've fingered Oft IN hall and bower,
But still my heart and life seemed sterile,
Until they burst to glorious flower
Beneath the smile of Lily Merrill
In Italy oft have strayed
Where love and mirth and beauty shine;
I've looked on many Georgian maid,
Whose beauty almost seemed divine
I've dwelt beneath the skies of Spain,
Within the old white walls of Cadiz,
And listened to loves melting strain
Breathed DER the lutes of Spanish ladies
But, ali, never, never felt
My wandering heart in mortal peril
Until in ecstacy knelt
To the young charms OF Lily Merrill
l met her in the joyous dance,
Where music's soft and thrilling strain
SWelled on the air, and every glance
Fixed her sweet image on my brain:
saw her move in pride and power,
Mid Beauty's bright, bewltching daugh
ters,
As graceful IS her namesake flower
Upon the blue lakes he1ving waters:
Amid her free and lovely tresses ftsA
She wore not diamond. pearl, or beryl,
The night met young LILY Merrill.
