The X. Il. Lee ard Natchez-
TF Another Race.
The st. Leuis Times says:

Andy Pauley, chief engineer of
tue steamer Natchez, writes from
New Orleans to his brother, Aide :
man John Pauley, of this city, that
the Natchez will make two trips 10
st. Louis this s,'ring, and will leave
New Orleans on the same day aud
hour of the Robt Il lee, and pro
poses to beat any time ever made
up the Mississippi river. Andy adds,
..iOOk out for fun, for we're coming
as soon as the river gets in a proper
stage Andy has just returned to
New Orleans from Cuba, where
he went for his health, but he found
no relief, and he expresses little hope
of his final recovery. Whether the
champion Bob lee wild cndeavor to
show the Narciiez the way to st.
Louis or be content to drink ''Steam
water" remains 10 be seen. One
thing, however, is certain, and that
is that TIE Natchez will endeavor to
win back the horns. The Lees time
from New Orleans to the city is
three days, eighteen hours and thir.
~ minutes, and as the Natchez
would have reached here inside an
hour behind her had she not struck
a fog bank, there is possibility of
her carry off the prize.

Fall harsh OH the ear,
She is a blossom
Too tender and frail,
For the keen blast
The pitiless gale.
Whisper it gently,
Twill cost thee no pain I;
Gentle words rarely
Are spoken in vain;
Threats and reproaches
The stubborn may move
Noble the conquest
Aided by love.
Whisper it kindly,
Twill pay thee to know
Penitent tear-drops
Down her cheeks flew.
Has she from virtue
Wandered astray
Guide her feet gently,
Rough IS the way.

None of her kin;

Keep her from sin.

Cherish the trust;
