TO BILLY HILLIARD AND HIS
BRIDE,

lis said, at heavens pearly gates.
The angel Of prayer does stand;
In listening attitude he waits r..ri . a
With flowers in hand.
Whose beauty pave their fragrant birth,
In all good sounds that rise from earth.
A lovely flower each word will pToye,i
In Sandalphon's dower-decked fingers,
That fall from lips that breathe but love,
When his kiss fingers;
And like the dew upon the rose,
Adds sweetness to its calm rePose.
May love its eeaseless vigil keep,
May joy its brightness ever bring;
Your grief, like transient dreams in sleep
With rapid wing
Fly off, nor leave thought with you,
That is not bright as morning dew.
And when the flowers lie withcred here.
When spring-time blossoms droop and die
When autumn winds blow chill and drear,
They faded lie,
Like twin-fOwers that no touch has riVen.
May your true hearts unite in heaven.

An African One Hundred and Thirty
Years Old.

Saturday before last we accompanied
DR.. c. NJ. Smith to the house of some
colored persons half a mile in the rear of
Franklin, where we found an African wo-
man by the name of Mary Ann. who is
now doubtless more than one hundred and
thirty years old. She was brought from
AREA when she was about fifteen wears
OLD, and has lived in the parish of st. MARY
ever since. She formerly belonged to the
Pellerln family, and afterward TO Josenb
Sorrel brother of Martial Sorrel.
This woman, Mary Ann. is very hlacl,
and a strongly marked African counte
nance. She has been blind, and confined
to her bed for about sixteen wears. Her
youngest child, Aquo, is now seventv-nine
years Old, and Is quite active She waits
upon her aged mother with great tender
ness. Inc old mother can not bear the fire.
even IN the coolest weather. but has to be
warmed by putting hot bricks to her feet
and hands. and by an abundance of
blankets; ohe can not walk, or even stand.
but is able to sit up in chair She has a
good appetite, but does not sleep we'll,
From facts and information which seem
reliable, Mary Ann must have been born
previous to the year 1740, and was broupht
to the parish OF st. Mary long before the
old revolutionary war, about the wear l755
or before that date
Her husband, Bernard died sixteen wears
ago. He was older than Mary Ann He
was forty years old when he was brought
from Africa in New England slave vessel.

WASHINGTON, May 22.-The senatorial
prisoners do not find their durance vile
quite so vile as it might be under other
circumstances. Perhaps the irksomeness of
confinement was somewhat felt this beauti.
ful Sunday, as they viewed from their win
dows the green prospect of distant Airing
ton IN luxurlant foliage, with the brilliant
hued congressional gardens lying between
out, beyond technical confinement, they are
not suffering many rigors. On Saturday
and to-day they received many callers.
Their custody is rather fgurative than
otherwise.
On calling, yesterday, we were confronted
by herculean jailor, about two feet and
half high, who, when we inquired who was
In charge, planted himself ON both feet,
drew himself to his full height, and, with
senatorial dignity, announced, Il am"
Gan we see the prisoners p said Colonel
Cobrlght. "fll see first if they'll see you."
said the urchin, with a slightly contempt
uous smile as he turned ON his heel and en-
tered the room. Here, youngster, take our
cards" said the colonel He took them,
and IN moment we were ushered into the
room OF the Senate Committee on Pacific
Railroads, where the gentlemen are now
undergoing executive execution of sentence.
The quarters they occupy are better and
more comfortable than any to be had at
any city hotel. A fine, large, cool parlor,
with sleeping room and modern improve
ments attached, with furnishing and ap-
planes for ease and comfort We found
the gentlemen in the enjoyment of home
society. Mrs. White, graceful little lady,
was, as she naively remarked, Improving

and profane vocabulary, one of Ramsdell's

meals come up from the Senate restaurant,
spring chicken and Strawberries, lamb and
green peas, etc. They have ample oppor-
tunlty for writing up the results of their ex-
pedltlors, and one great advantage over
their brethren down on Fourteenth street,
in that the leaky Senators have only little
way TO go to unburten themselves. AS to
unlooslng the bonds of their Imprisonment
by answering the questions put to them, the
prospect did not seem promising on Satur
day.
