~Tbo, Iioht-wineed wand'rer OF the summer all
-T,bo,I t,Inefnl min strel Of the thickets slade
To thy small nest thou shalt no more repair
Upon whose edge thy recent flight delayed.
No more at morning shall thy swelling throat
pnur 10 thy tender mate the matin lay;
M more along the glade thy mellow note
Shall softly inger at the close OF day.
The tiny slarcr Of thy NOISY nest
Shall miss thee soon and call thee, but IN vain,
And all unanswered, from her widoN ed breast
The p!antive cries shall to the wood complain.
Those helpless ncstIings. for whose daily fare
Thy labor ceased not till the setting sun,
Shall yainly cali upen their parents care;
But one is left, and that the fec5lcr one.
Though she may seek, Industrious, to supply
All that her orphaned brood unhceding ask,
,Irom morn till night about the meadows ply
With double industry her lonely task.
oft must they know the panss Of hungry pain,
fJnsheltercd feel the north winds biting breath,
Endure uncovered the descending ram
Till rescued, mayhap, by an early death.
Cor tLou art dead, poor little harmless bird,
Vhy painted wing bears thee no more along:
The downv breast is still, where lately stirred
The breath Of life, the thrill OF happy song.
SEINE unframed boy, pcrchance, in wanton play
=. Casting q careless stone. hath laid thee low,
Exulted for a moment, then away,
Thoughtess OF Ills that from his pleasure flow.
With cruel hand unthlnking he employed
The idle missile, nor recalled again
That his light sport had wontonly destroyed
a fragile life, 50 happy until then.
Twas naught to him. but to thy happy fight
A easpng breath, a fluLtering fall succeeds,
Aud DER thy sight the pail OF lasting night
Falls, and corruption on thy beauty feeds.
Yes, little songster, life is thine no more,
Thy substance moulders to the primal clay,
But mid the turf, fed by thy dusty store,
Some fair wild flower shall thrive on thy decay.

MARRIAGE DIFFICULTIES.

Not grea. while since 'bachelor who
has been looking for wife for fifteen years .
published in the New York Times an essay on
the difficulties of marriage. This very nat,l-
rally provoked large correspondence with
that journal and the Boston Post, in which
the subject of matrimony was discussed in
the most instructive manner The original
bachelor Of this epistolary multitude, who
instigated the revolution OF celibate discon-
tent, ascribed his married condition to the
fact that he lived in comfort and was welcome
in the best society on an income OF eigh-
teen hundred a year, but had been un-
able to find the woman to whom share
iu that sum would be a suficiency. 1t is
creditable to the practical determination of
the manageable women Of the country that
they avoided the temptation thus offered to
argue the abstract question. but proceeded to
make direct personal application. One who
enumerates her accomplishments as including
music, drawing and a speaking acquaintance
with several languages, says the Post, an
nounces herself as competent and willing to
undertake housekeeping on nine hundred a
year as her share of the matrimonial venture.
Another can get along with five hundred, and
six hundred IS minimum sum for which
they are ready to join their futuces with any
reasonably proper man.
The shelter Of anonymous correspondence
even induces such boldness on the part of on9
of the writer's that she avows herself as having
sought husband for six years, and as able to
introduce the eligible bachelor Of small in
come to o large number Of young ladies of
equally persuadable inclinations.
This sets at rest the fact that the cause Of
bachelorhood in the country is not to be found
in the reluctance of the young women, and
must be looked for in other circumstances

LEJRkZL; BILBL THE MODEL.

The body OF q beautiful woman was re-
Gently exposed to view in the Paris morgue.
The form and features were SO marvellously
perfect that people thronged by hundreds to
look on what they could not recognize. Day
after day the water trickled from above, and
still she lay there. At last an old woman,
a baachisseuse of the Seine, entered. She
had been drawn there by the reports
of ''one more unfortunate" and she
came to recognize Lucrezia Balbi. The
old woman had known her well. She was
poor, but Lucrezia had been poorer, Eand the
old wo nan had shared with the beautiful girl
her loaf Of bread and her bottle of ria orali
pa'c. 1. vas a sad story. Lucrezia Balbi
had been mode. OF the studios III the Latin
quarter. She was very beautiful, with the
large, lustrous eyes, black hair and olive hue
Of Italy, of which country she was a native
There was one studio in which she was al
ways more than welcome. 1t was that OF
Henri isegnault. For him Lucrezia conceived
an absorbing love. Some people say that the
young artist used her for his playthirg, and
would in time have thrown her of. He did
not live to do it, for he persisted in the days OF
the Commune, when the guns OF MacMahon
were laundering against the walls OF PARIS and
the shells were bursting in the Champs Ely
sees. Lucrezia Balbi never recovered from
the GlSCtS vi llcI 1ON0i ucdti4' lACl AiSalI
broke Since that time she had struggled
along among the studios in condition OF the
deepest melancholy. All knew the sad story
of her life. and all the students and
artists helped her for she was legacy
lett to them from the memory OF
The dead painter who died III the days of the
Commune. They were all kind to her too, but
the maulwhom she had loved was absent and
alter four years of heart desolation, the For
marina of Henri Regrault's studio found it
destiny. and so she buried her troubles in the
Seine. Many of those who had studied her
beautiful anatomy and transferred it to their
canvas, came to see Lucrezia as she lay there
stark and CHASTITY on the slab OF the norsue,
and some followed her to her grave, but none
missed her so much as the old blanchisseuse OF
the Seine, who had shared with her in the last
DAYS of her life, her loaf of bread and her
poor bottle of ria OrdiaaTe.

FROM the COurler-J
\ rather mysterious affair occurred few
nights ago in the Louisville Medical College
building corner of Fifth and Green streets.
Two Of the students have been paying atten-
ton to the same young lady, who lives but a
stones throw from the medical college, and
they got into quarrel about her. 1t was at
last proposed that each take a pistol and fight
a duel in dark room in the college building.
So the pistols were selected, seconds chosen,
and the party, when no one was in the honse
at night, entered a room, and, locking the
door behind them, prepared for the encounter
The light was extinguished, and at proper
distance from each other, at the word, each
fred. The gas was lit, and an investigation
only proved that the powder and ball had
been wasted. The light was again extin-
guished and again, at the word, the pistols
were again discharged.
This time one OF the duellists was found
slightly wounded in the left arm The honor
of the medical gentlemen having been thus
satisfied, the two became friendly again and
shook hands with each other.

virtuous aspirations. The many oc-
casions in the past where the
South, bv eNacting a conformity 10 sonnd

freedom and constitutional constructions,
embarrassed the national democracy and led
toiis defeat. are arrsyed against our section
with the terrible wrath and disgust eNneri-
enced by hungry loper wolf suddealy

gushing to a democrat of the school OF the
Enquirer than this weakness ard stubborn
ness of the South in adbering to cardinal
principles of republican liberty and OF an
Gent democracy so fatally inculated by JEFF
ferson aud the founders OF the republic in
the minds of the Southerners. Why should
we,embarrass the noble and grand object of
abolishing forever the constitutional enor-
nifty which makes gold and silver the legal
currency, and of converting the federal
government into great lnanufaciory or
paper promises to pay, by our foolish 2sser-

imitation OF the cheap, counterfeit money,
more rags and lampblack, are what are
needed to relieve all the burdens
and assuage all the griefs of the south.
