The old barn window, John,
Do you remember it,
How just abovcit on the beam,
The tame dove used to sitf
And how we watched the sunshine stream
Through tho notes and gossamer,
When down they auttercd John,
With such breezy whirrf s'r

Are seldom now as rcd; ,
They used to linger like crown
Upon your auburn head.
From the high hsy-loft, looking down
To tell me Of the nest
The white hen hid there, John ..-st
The whole brood's handsomcst!
Those times were pleasant, John,
When we were boy and girl,
Though modern young folks style thcm"slow

Be thankful with me, John,
That we were children then.
Have you forgotten, John,
That Wednesday afternoon,
When the great door was opened wide,
And all the scents of June
Came in TO greet us, side by side,
In the high-seatcd swing;
Where focks Of swallows, John,
Famed us with startled wings
Up to barn caves, John,
We swung, two happy things,
At home and careless in the air
As five both had wings.
The mountain sides lay far and fair,
Beyond the blue streams shore;
I cried, "swins higher, John,"
And fell upon the floor.
Next time ! saw you, John,
You stood beside my bed;
Tears tremblcd in your clear boy glance
thought that was dead,
But felt my childish pulses dance
To be beside you, still; t-.....

AS to the end will.
We swing no longer, John;
We sit at our own door,
And watch the shadows on the hill,
The sunshine on the shore.
But the window in the barn is still
A magic glass to me;
For, through its cobwebs. john,

IHE STEAMBOAT SLAUGHTER on the Poto-
mac has been made the subject of the usual
Official farce When the community is ap-
palied by the news Of frightful disaster by
rail or steamer an investigation is at once
demanded. But it proves in all cases de-
plorable humbug and no guilty parties are
discovered The Potomac slaughter has
been decided upon, and it appears that
nobody is TO blame. What matters it, in the
Judgment Of the government authorities, that
the captain and mate had no license, and that
the engineer was too busy with private specu-
lations to attend to his duties and that he
often left boy in charge of the engine? The
slaughter Of seventy human beings is simply
an unpleasantness. Such is the result Of
government investigations.

In the HERALD Of this morning we print
special despatch from London having MOST
important bearing on the future of France.
Yesterday several hundred Frenchmen called
at Chiselhurst to pay their respects to the ex-
Empress Eugene and her son. The occasion
was sanctioned by all the solemnities of the
Church. A formal Bonapartist address was
read, and the Prince Imperial made formal
reply. For young man, like the Prince I'm
perial, the reply was in good taste Of course
it was we'll prompted. Gail for tho people
and by the people," were well chosen words,
and the time must come when they will be re-
membered. The Count de Chambord may yet
rule in and over France but SO long as the
Hotel des Invalides contains the mortal re-
mains of the First Napoleon, and living
heir exists, the Empire must be regarded as
one of the possibilities Of the future. Chisel-
hurst, like st. Helena, will live, and France
will not forget either the one or the other.
Ideas rule France, and the Nopoleonic idea is
not yet dead, the Bonaparte speech of yester-
day being very generally accepted as o good
set-of against the Bourbonist movement of
Count de Chambord
