WHY TRUTH GOES NAKED.

List to tale well worth TO hear,
Ofall who wit and sense admire;
TWENTIETH is very clear
Some ages prior to Matthew Prior.
Falsehood and Truth, "upon n time,'
One day in June's delicious weather,
('Twas in a distant ago and cline
Like sisters, took walk together.
On their merry way they took,
Thro' fragrant wood and verdant meadow
To where q beach beside brook
Invited rest beneath its shadow.
There sitting in the pleasant shade,
Upon the margins grassy mating,
A velvet cushion ready made,)
The young companions fell to chatting.
Now, while in voluble discourse,
On thsand that their tongues were running
AS habit bids each speak--perforce,
The one is frank; the other cunning.
Falsehood, at length impatient grown
With scandal of her own creation,
Said, "Snce we two are quite alone,
And nicely screened from observation,
Suppose in this delightful rill,
While all around is so propitous,
We take bath ?"-ssid Truth, 81 will
A bath, I'm sure, will be delicious !"
At this her robes she cast aside,
And in the stream that ran before her
She plungcd-likc Oceans happy bride
AS naked as her mother bore her
Falschood at leisure now undresscd,
Put off the robes her limbs that hamper,
And having donned Truths snowy vest,
Ran Off as fast as she could scamper.
Since then the subtle maid, in sooth,
Expert in lies and shrewd evasions,
Has borne the honest name of Trulh,
And wears her clothes on all occasions;
While Truth, dsdaining to appear
In Fasehood's pettcoat and bodice,
Still braves all eyes from year to year,
AS naked as a marble goddess

One morning last winter, upon the
application of certain parties to the
CITY Treasurer of Philadelphia for their
bonds, called ''city SKIES" the authors
ties were astounded to find that SO, 600
worth had mysteriously disappeared.
1t was ascertained that these bonds had
been taken from the Treasurer's Office
at the time they were ready for trans
fer to the Philadelphia bank. or
course, they were of no value to the
parties holding them unless they could
explain how the bonds came into their
possession.
The bonds were the property of a
certain Mrs. Parker, and were all made
out in her name. Upon certain day
Mrs. lamar G. johnson went to GER
tain well-linown broker, and requested
him to sell the bonds. Mrs. johnson
represented herself to be Mrs. Parker,
then in Europe, calling upon aweman
named Maria Fury to prove that what
She said was the truth. Some time
after this the real Mrs. Parker, as be-
fore stated, called Mt the Treasurer's
Office and demanded her $40, 900 worth
of bonds. They were missing, and
could not be found, nor has it yet been
ascertained who stole them.
The Philadelphia Bank, in the name
of which the transfer had been made,
sent for Maria Fury, who is a woman
of some means, and asked where this
Mrs. johnson was who represented
herself as Mrs. Parker Mrs. Fury re-
Piled that she did not know, but the
police authorities soon learned her
Whereabouts and arrested her along
with a certain George Ranking, who
was supposed to have played no minor
part in obtaining the bonds. The par
ties were arrested for larceny and
several months ago were put under
bail in the sum of Si0,o0O each.
The case never has come 10 trial,
and Journals, both in Philadelphia
and New York, have placed q very PEE
culiar construction upon the circum-
stances of their being withheld from
Court. Indeed the strangest rnnlors
have been afioat, and many say that
a compromise had been effected, and
that all the stolen money was returned.
Ten days ago, in answer to Immense
external pressure, the Court of Com
mon Pleas issued a bench warrant
against these parties for forgery, and
since that time Captain Franks has
been searching for the parties in every
quarter of the city. He found Mrs.
johnson, for whom he has been dill
gently looking, Saturday morning, and.
took her and al the patries mentioned,'
before the court, where they we're Held
for forgery, their bail being named at
S., 900 each.
