DOOMED To DIsAPPOINTMENT.-The democratic
hope spf success next November, through republi-

Here the preacher paused a moment for breath,
then resumed, more loudly and excitedly than
ever:
$50 spread my wings an gire an A-L-NI-G-H-

Then his voice dropped to a confidential whis-
per, and he concluded by saying:
"An' got de t-a-rn-a-t-i-O-n-a-l-e-s-t fall dat

Dom Piatt has been to the White Sui
phur Springs and seen Beauregard, the
once famous General. The keen eyed
Platt looked the aforesaid Beauregard all
over for evidences of something remark
able. without success. He looked like Il
successful little physician or lawyer, and
yet lacked the peculiar manner of the doc
tor or the sharpness of the advocate. The
truth is, this killing business brings to the
surface no end of men very common
place in time of peace. The discovery
has been made in Europe, and will be got
at here after 4 time, that the intellect
necessary for u successful captain is of q
very low order. In every instance, almost
where the general has been called to duty
in civil life he has made dismal failure.
The men called to the front during the
late civil war, on both sides, are rapidly
retiring from public notice into the OBJ
security from which they were taken. Ger
tainly the obscurty becometh them, but
whether they dignity or adorn the obsurily
is another matter. Golden Age.

The Jockey threw the plum up; the cap

and the plum came squirting down bursted
in many pieces.
An involuntary bravo escaped the lips
of the lockers on. The Ma or turned pale
as death.
The Captain did not speak another word
about the plum shot, but quietly reloaded
his pistol in presence of the second and
went back TO take his place.

These words seemed like shrieks to the
lockers on. Every one excused himself
for having laughed yesterday. The second
said nothing against the second shot, be
cause the Major now shot for them all {;
then il this monster did not bite the dust
he would shoot them all down like dogs.
The Major raised his pistol and aimed,
but everything seemed swimming before
his eyes. His nerves were unsteady.
The Captain looked him straight in the
face. At last he said s'YesterIly was

You Kissed Me :

You kissed me, My head dropped
Low on your breast,
With a feeling of shelter
And infinite rest,
While the holy emotions
My tongue dared not speak,

From my heart TO my check.

Oh! your arms We're so bold.
Heart beat against heart
In their passionate hold.

Ny soul through my eyes.
As the sun draws the mist
From the sea to the skies;
And your lips chung to mine
Till prayed IN my bliss,
They might never uncasp
From that rapturous kiss.
You kissed me. my heart and
My breath. and my will,
In delllious JOY
For the moment stood still:
Life had for me then,
No temptations, no charms.
No vision OF happiness.

And We're !, this instant,

And tear from my forehead

To nestle once more
In that haven of rest,
With your lips upon mine
And my head on Your breast.

In a bliss SO divine.
Relied and swooned like a drunken man
Foolish with wine;
And thought 'twere delicious
TO die there, If death
Would come while my lips were

EWere delicious to die,

While Your arms wrapped me round
In tina; passionate told.
And these are the questions
