ay, he never said he'd love me.
He is free to wed to-day.
And the bride is high above me,
And she's very fair, they say
And she's very stately, truly.
Meet for such as he to WOO
What am | that he should tarry
By my cottage door to sueO
Very tair-with eyes of light,
Clear with CLINT of winter night.
Only-he once called my eyes
Chances from blue summer skies.
Nay. he gave no promise ever
To be faithful to me yet.
Surely hands can lightly sever
When are no vows to forget.
If we wandered by the river,
Thro' the cleaning, on time,
1t was in the summer weather
Now the lane is white with rimc.
'Tis the lady, wears his ring,
With the diamonds glistening.
Only-he once said. no word
Needs to make Loves wooing heard.
Nay. my heart it is not breaking.
If my cheek is pale, they say.
Never heed my voices shaking
He is free to wed to-day.
Save in old romantic legend.
Dead for love was never known
Hearts are harder than song telleth-
Hard and cold as any stone.
'TwiXt him and the altar rail
Gitdeth in no spectre pale.
And the merry marriage bell
Shall not die into knell.

M. THEIRS has made statement
which affords a reasonable ground for
hope that the Alsace customs question
may be pcaceably settled. By the
present agreement, Germany, in return
for the payment of the third install
ment of the war indemnity month in
advance. is to begin the evacuation of
French territory within fortnight after
the ratification of the treaty. AS the
National Assembly is not to meet before
December, the evacuation will not take
place a long time before the third in
stallment of the indemnity becomes
due. Besides, Germany practically re-
tains the power of postponing the evacu-
alton for an indefinite period to ratify
the treaty. As to the question out of
which these complications arose, Ger
many has conceded the point of reci-
procity as regards French Goods enter
ing Alsace.

Bits of Wisdom.

He that bites on every weed must
needs light on poison.
Little and often fills the purse.
Laws catch flies but let the hornets
free.
Poverty is not shame, but being
ashamed of it is.
He that is too proud to ask is too
good to receive.
God sends meat and the devil sends
cooks.
Poor men seek meat for their
stomachs, rich men seek stomachs for
their meat.
Smooth words make smooth ways.
Idle hope is q waking dream.
Follow love and it will fee; flee love
and it will follow thee.
Too much courtesy, too much craft.
When the wind serves, all aid.
Physicians faults are covered with
earth, rich mems with money.
Dry bread at home is better than
roast meat abroad.
All is fine that is fit.
Who is over-nice loses many slice.
Trust not still water nor silent man.
Haste trips up its own heels.
Golden dreams make men awake
hungry.
Take care of your geese when the fox
breaches.
A fools head never whitens.
Wise men learn by others harm.
A ship aground is a beacon at sea.
Every one sings as he has the gift,
and marries Us he has the luck.
All are not hunters that blow the
horn.
THE fall bonnets will be very large
behind, and made of velvet, mike with
corded silk. The shades are somewhat
peculiar, both dark and rich in glow
corded silk or bright satin relieve the
sombre hues, which will be garnet,
lapis, maroon, scabious bronze, amaranth
and the dahlia series. The light colors
will be turtle, beaver and the new allu-
| minum sray. The favorite combina-
tions will be fawn and lavender; maroon
with mastic, which is the color OF
glazier's putty dried currant, called
corinthe, with torquoise blue; lapls with
almond green, the jasper shade, with
clair-de-lune, which is a silver gray
garnet, with pale salmon. The light
shades are used for piping or cordlng
and the lining of bows and strings,
which are cut on the cross. The most
expensive birds and plumes are coveted
ornaments for these hats. The wings
of birds with changeful hue on them
fetch very nigh prices; quiet drab and
stone with a streak of blue here and
! there, are also in demand.

FRIDAY MORNING. DECEMBER 8. 1871.
A singular Accident.



AT the Phenlx Iron Foundry, Monday
morning, packing ring about a roll In
hydraulic press burst violently apart, throw
ing the fragments with great force. One or
more struck Michael McCartin in the face aud

groan marking expiring lite. The press was
used for the compression Of paper and cotton
rolls, for the use OF bleachers and dyers

the press at the lime of the accident, which
was caused by the breaking OF the last
blocking at the top Of the press, which con-
sisted Of circular band oil iron some four
inches in width and an inch and q half in
thickness. MIR. McCartin was an Irishman
about thirty years OF age, and leaves q wife
and two children. He served honorably 10
the Union army during the war. This ac.
cldent was a very curious one, and most un-
accountable, and such as has never hap
pened before. The press has been In use for
nearly forty years, and is In as good order
now MS when new. The cause oil The accl-
dent can hardly be explained. The press.
ure came on the side OF the ring which was
laid on the top OF the roll being pressed.
The side testing ON the roll was slightly con.
cave to ct the roll, which gave II the motion
outward. The sane ring has been used IL
lie same manner proably hundred time
with equal or more pressure. The lremend-
Gus force Of lie rupture was shown by thu
fact that piece weighing about four pound
