POETRY.
Passionate Consistency

When was young, my lover stole
One of my ringlets fair,
I went, all no, those always part
Who having once changed heart ior heart'
Change also locks of hair
And wonder opened eyes have seen,
The spirits of the dead,
Gathered like notes in silent bands,
Round hair once reft by tender hands
From some now shrouded head.
If-here he closed my quivering lips
And where my curl had lain,
Laid payment rich for what he STOLE
Could to one hour crush life's whole
I'd live that hour again!
Dear hair that he has praised 50 oft!
Dear brow where his lips lay!
Dear eyes that knew not We were 1air,
Till his praise made We what We are
Must We too pass away?
NV golden locks are silvering DER,
What heed? the seas roll wide
When one know their bounds shall pass
There'll be no tresses, save long grass
For his hands to divide.
For shall lie, low deep and cold,
Within my narrow bed
Whether he weep, or pray, or moan
shall be passive as a stone
He living, and 1 dead.

AnecdOte Of Ben Wade.

When Mr.. Wade was delivering his famous
speech on the Kansas-Nebraska Bill, his col
league, Mr.. Pugh, man of respectable abil-
ity, but great Democrat, and no match for
Mr.. Wade, rose in his place and put to the
kadicai Senator haunting question relative
to ms belief in the common brotherhood OF
mankind. II have" said Wade, "always be-
heved heretofore in the doctrines of the Dec
laration of Independence, that all men are
born free and equal; but of late it appears
that some men are born slaves, and
l regret they are not black, so all
the world might know them" As he
said this he pointed to Pugh, and stood look
ing at him for several moments with a scowl
and expression of countenance that was per
fectly ferocious, while it conveyed the utmost
contempt for his dough-faced colleague.
In the same speech Mr.. Brown, of Mississ-
ippi, interrupted him just as Wade said: 81
know very WELL sir, with what a yell of tri-
umph the passage of this bill will be hailed
both in the South and in pandemonium.'
Brown.-'Do you know what is going on
there? ' Laughter.
Mr. Wade.-"I do not pretend to know
precisely what is on foot there, but 1 think it
is pretty evident that there is a pretty free
communication between that country and
this body; and, unless am greatly mistaken.
see the dwarfish medium by which that
communication is kept up Great laughter
and voice on the Southern side," 81 guess

A METEOROLOGICAL Cow.-Bloody rain
and the falling of meat from the sky have
been treated of in most histories, but that a
whole COW, while yet alive and in the flesh,
should be waited through the ether, is an in
cident reserved for the fortunate dwellers of
our enterprlsing city. Yet such was the fact,
and she came down through the roof of John
Derr's barn, on Ida Hill, like blessed spirit
from on high, and John will have to paw for
the shingles Those who witnessed the pbe-
nomenon were struck with amazement. A
large crowd gathered in few moments. The
cow had alighted airily, as it were, and in a
few moments had arisen and stood gracefully
balancing herself on her feet. No one could
account for the singular occurrence. Ser
geant Burke, who was passing, was called in.
he was at first struck speeches. with aston
lshment As he saw the animal standing
there like being from another world, and
then looked up and saw the jagged hole in
the roof, he could only sink back upon a
half barrel of turnips and calculate slowly
and with feeling:
There was an old man who said how
Shall flee from this horrible COW?
will sit on this stie
And continue to SMILE
Which may soften the heart of this cow"
The cow had possibly been protected by a
troop OF guardian bovine spirits, at least She
was found to be entirely uninjured. The
COW, we learn, did not come down from
High olympus" but from Mount Ida She
had been grazing ambrosial mullen stalks on
the brow OF the mountain that overhangs the
row of structures directly opposite the .sfiat
iron" house on Congress street hill, and came
down the icy side, shooting ever a rocky cliff.
down upon Mr.. Derr's barn-a dizzy distance
OF about fourteen feet, after her slide of about
nifty feet down the avalanche's track. The
occurrence took place about 6 o'clock last
evening. The cow belongs to john Cozier,
ana no money would buy her. After her
aerial fight, we learn that she gave eight
quarts OF creamy nectar, and will hereafter be
MIXED in an alabaster pail=Trnu Whin

J1VHE above is an engraving of Steam Boiler con-
Il tanning 1900 feet Of heating surface built upon a
new principle, namely that Of stopping the pertical
circulation accomplished by means Of two horizon
tai diaphrayms running through the boiler, and
forming three water compartments. By this ar
rangement there is maintained three temperatures of
water
The smoke and heated gases pass first through the
tubes in the upper compartment, then descend, and
return through the tubes in the second compartment
thence again descending they pass through the tubes
In the third compartment. By this operation the
smoke, and heated gases from the furnace on their
way to the smoke stack, or chimney come in con-
tact with gradually decreasing temperatures of
water.
While doing average work, coupled with good
power.
We will guarantee that this boiler will shew 30
per cent. more power with the same weight of coal
than any boiler of the heating surface in the
Market and will continue to do So as long as IL ia
used and we will back our guarantees with Gov
RRNAENT BONDS
The durability of this boiler is greater than anv
other for the reason is that no cold water is allowed
to come In contact with the intensely heated surfaces
the feed water being gradually heated as ascenSs
from the lower to the upper compartment.
We would especially call the attention of Railroad
men to the following facts that while running this
bOlerwith coal or wood the sparks are neutraIized
and none have ever left the smOke-stack or chimney
which in itself Is most valuable advantage never
before realized.
Combining ourselves to practice and not theorv we
