Shoes by Nail.

THE Virginia City (Nev) Enterprise

office in this city we were shown an old
shoe which started from the New York
city Postoffice. Among the documents
slowed away in the shoe is one in which
is written something to the following
effect: we, the undersigned, respectfully
recommend that our late comrade, Good,
enough, be appointed postal cobbler,
this shoe being a specimen of his work.
Then follows a large number of sigma

about the worst specimen in that line
ever seen. 1t is patched with scraps OF

and wonderfully made, and nailed on
with copper, iron, and all kinds Of nails,

Love is not made of kisses, or of signs,
q clinging hands, or of the sorceries
And subtle witchcrafts Of alluring eyes.
Love is not made of broken whispers; mol
Nor of the blushing cheek, whose answering glow
Tells that the ear has heard the accents low.
Love is not made of tears, nor yet of smiles;
OF quiyering lips, or Of enticing wies;
Love Is not tempted; he himself beguIles.
This is Loves language, but this is not Love.
If we know aught of Love, how shall we aare
To say that this is Love- when well aware
That these are common things, and Love is rare?
As separate streams may, blending, ever roll
In course united, go, of soul TO SOUL
Love is the union into one sweet whole.
AS molten metals mingle; as a chord
Swells sweet in harmony; when Love is lord,
Two hearts are one. as letters form word.
One heart, one mind, one soul. and one desire,
A kindred fancy, and a sister fire
OF thought and passion; these can Love inspire.
This makes heaven of earth; for this Is Love.
