TINE AND LoyE-AN ALLEaoRY,
BY JOHN q. SAKE

BY JOHN O.. SAKE.
Old TIME and young LOVE, ON morning in May,
Glanced to meet by river in halcyon weather,
And agreeing, for once Cts fable you'll say
In the same little boat made voyage together.
Strong, steady and patient TIME pulled at his oar,
And swift DER the water the voyagers go;
But LovH-who was thinking of Pleasure on shore,
Complained that his boatman was wretchsdly
slow.
But TIME, the old sailor, expert at his trade.
And knowing the leagues that remained to be
done,
Content with ths regular speed that he made,
Tugged away at his car and kept steadily on.
Lovn always impatient of doubt or delay,
Now sighed for the aid of the fayoring gales,
And scolded at TIME, in the sauciest way,
For not having furnished the shallop with aaila,
But TIME as serene as 8 calendar saint,
whatever the gray-beard was thinking upon)
All deaf to the voice of the yonker's complaint,
Tngged away at his oar and kept steadily on.
LoEv, vexed at the heart, only clamored the more,
And cried: "By the gods! in what country
or cline
Was ever lubber who handled an oar,
In SO lazy a fashion as old father Timef
But TIME only smiled in cynical way,
Otis often the mode elderly DOM
AS one who knows more than he cares to display,
And still at his oar pulls steadily on.
Grown calm. at last, the e1uberant boy
Enliyens the minutes with snatches Of rhyme !;
The voyage, at length, he begins to enjoy,
And soon has forgotten the presence Of TIME
But TINE, the severe. egotstical elf,
Since the day that his travels had entered upon
Has never for moment forgotten himself,
But tugs Of his oar and keeps steadily on.
Awaking, once more, LOVE sees with sigh
That the River Of Life will be presently passed
And now he breaks forth with piteous cry,
30 TINE, gentle TIME you are rowing too fast
But TIME, well knowing that LOVE will be dead,
Dead-dead in the boat ERE the voyage is
done,
Only gives him al ominous shake Of the head,
While he tugs at his oar and keeps steadily on.

IMMIGRATION.

The recent meeting Of a number Of gentle
men in Norfolk, for the purpose Of devising
some scheme 10 attract emigrants to the lands
of Virginia, was a move in the right direc-
ton. 1t should be the purpose not merely
to seek the aboring class Of emigrants. We
are much more in need of Capital than We
are oflabor Itshould, therefore, be the pri-
mary object OF any organization that may be
consummated,to communicate with capitalists
and endsavcr to interest them. It will doubt
less be subject for the Legislature this win
ter. Members should bear in mind, however,
that we have no money at present to be en-
ployed for any other than the imperative and
unavoidable demands on the Treasury.
Mr.. Kiser, the defeated candidate for the
Legislature in Roanoke county, having made
a statement that the Independent candidate
was supported by the Times, and that paper
was run in the interest of Radicalism, and
every other accumulation, Capt. McCaull
the editor, pronounces the allegation as 'false
as hell" We are satisfied the charge Is un.
true. but we are not so well convinced thai
sshell is false" We are inclined, on the con-
tray, to the belief, that that sulphurous abode
is pretty true, and shat blue blazes and brlm

1st The fact Of persons having pre.enp.
ted 100 acres of land in another State or
Territory shall not prevent him from pre-.
emptinE 100 acres in Montana. .,ry.
Cd. Persons prc.epptius untimbcrsd land

4th. That iffidsvits of presumption may
be made before clerks of the District court
in the several counties, provided the land
entered IL more thxn twenty miles distant
from the Land Office 1t Helena.
We consider this most important, wise
and bencficent bill, and hope il will become
. law. Under existing statutes a person
who prc.empted land in tiny other Terri
| tory or State cannot pre- .empt here. There
are good reasons for . general law of that
/ character, but it will be readily seen that
it's provisions to the welfare of the Terri.
tory and Government.
The provisions regarding timber and
swamp lands are also commendable, and
that relieving settlers from the expense nd
loss of time IN going fifty, one hundred, apd
in some cases nearly two hundred miles to
the General Land office just to make pre-.
cmptiOn affidavit that can be q well admin
istered by clerks of court near their lands,
will be hailed as relief from an oppressive
and useless requirement. ... j.
The Bill is carefully drawn up, and if it
becomes law, will confer great and ap-
preciable benefits upon the settlers on pub.
lie lands.
