A RICH POEM.

From the Philadelphia Sunday Di.patch.
1t is impossible to choke. IF the
poets. We say disagreeable things
about them every week, and yet they
continue to sendn i their illusions with
the same calm coa6dence as Of old that
we have silver mint somewhere that
is kept in perpetual operation for the
solitary purpose Of purchasing rhymes
at stupendors prices. This week We
have one from a being who has chosen
for his theme "The Matching Moth.
En-" This vigilant parent, if we IN.
derstand the thing, is sitting, by her
infant child in the middle Of the night,
ready to respond when it inquiries for
paregoric. The poet says: ''Beside
the couch she sat. wherein her infant
slept and as she looked upon bis face,
she bowed her head and wept. He
was her only one, into Ter heart he'd
slept; and as her mothers love wellea
up she bowed her head and wept. He
was but che year old, aud hardly yet
he crcpt. Perhaps he'd die! All !!
dreadful thought! Sac bowed her
head and wept. Thus far an angel
form her boy from harm had kept ;
with thankful, grateful heart, she bow
ed her head and wept" Perhaps this
will be ennug', for once. There ar
sixty-two verses, and 10 every oae OF
them that singular parent bowed her
head an wept. 1t made no difference
to her whether her offspring crept or
walked, accepted its food regularly or
screamed or took notice, or had guar
dian angels, or measles, or anything,
that infatuated mother bowed her hea d
and wept all the same. 1t is extremely
aft: citing, but ucqucsticnably n.onoton-
Gus. We shall give the rest Of the
poem a. intervals, one verse at time
during the year. Perhaps it may ran
over into next year. Persons who
tire Of it. can have the address Of th {
poet by applying at this office. If he
must be shot, let the murderoas deed
be committed by some other frcnzicd
sufferer than ue.

The Neshall House was tho scene
Yesterday If matrimonial occurrence,
which, for neatness and dispatch in
execution, challenges comparison. On
the noon train, yesterday, there Came
to this city two gentlemen from Ken.
osha, the Right Rev. Father Doughefty
and young man bearing the aristo.
cratic name OF Desmond. They imme.
diately betook themselves to the New
hall House, and, as soon as they had
registered their names, the Reverend
gentleman asked to SEQ Miss Fanny
Cary, one Of the mattresses of the hotel.
Although sho was at the time engaged
in waiting on the table, his business ap-
pearcd so urgent that she was summon
ed from the dining-room and met Rev.
Doughcrty in the ball. After exchaug-
ing the usual compliments of the sea-
son, the clergyman, who, it seems, had
long been acquainted with Miss Cary,
told her without further explanations
that a young gentleman friend Of his,
who accompanied him, was about to set
tie down ia life, had made his fortune,
and having determined to take a pa,t-
ner tor better or for worse, had consult
ed him as to an eligible person. That
he had Immediately suggested that
Fanny Cary was just the person for the
place, and that Desmond, on the
strength of his recommendation, had
decided to offer himself to her, and
bring about, If possible, an immediate
consummation Of the matter.
After stating the above facts, the
Reverend Father made formal propos-
al to the young gill ia behalf Of Des-
mond, summoned the couple, who bad
never seen each other before, intro.
duced, and it was decided that as soon
as possible they should be made 1.-TWO
souls with but single thought, two
hearts that beat as one." Accordingly
by four o'clock the ceremonies were
performed by Rev. Dougherty, aud
without waiting for congratulations, the
newly married couple set out for Fox
Lake, the residence of Desmond.
Desmond is said to be man of CON-
siderable means, owning property about
Fox Lake to tho amount of ST., 1000.

re:s Of the Davenport and St. Paul

point on the road in consideration Of
a bonus Of 100000 in twenty years

thus give 100000 ter single limo Of
road which is not to DO complsted for
two years; while the people of St.

to carry out a proposition which will
secure to the city the benefits of three
roads-two being connections with the
main line Of the Northern Pacific, and
ono of these tapping the Red River
trade add making it tributary to St.
Cloud-the longest Of which will be
completed within one year.
In addition to this, Rochester is dis.

new company which proposes building
narrow guage road from. Minneapolis to

$4,000, or nearly double what St.
