LOUISIANA.

Sure never land was 90 accursed;
Not Egypt meath the rod
When locusts, lice, and frogs 50 foul
We're sent by Israels God!
Our freedom gone our lands enchainel:
Vice rule the present hour.
And Ignorance, Hate and Avarice
Must have unboUnded power.
Shall We submit to these last wrongs
And murmur not a word:
-And dare we not with life oppose
The vile and venal horde!
Shall we be slaves where We have ruled,
And leave our children slaves?
lis better far that those We love
should rest within their graves!
We would have peace: We want not strife:
But patience hath an end;
And he whose soul hath once been free
May break, but neer should bend.
lis wiser far to strive and fail,
And fall with armor on,
Than live a life Of wretchedness
With hope and honor gone.
Our foes are many, friends are few,
Each word we say is caught
End, with malicious cunning It's
With different meaning fraught.
.cu, now we say, and swear it too!
That more we can not bear.
And those who now insult and rob,
should stop, or should Beware!
WHEN wars red waves rolled DER eur land
We bore ourselves like men,
And when we failed our flag we fnrled
.To-aise it ne'er again;
But by those hopes which once We had,
and by our manhoods might,
I'VE swear no more such wrongs to brock
We want, veal have the right.
Louisiana conquered" has been writ,
But who is he who'll dare
To say that ne'er with victory crowned
Shall brightly beam her star:
Her SONS are many, brave and rue,
As CORY fields can tell,
And though her foes do triumph now
There's venSsance-an hell!

The Wav of the World,

When at morning, you start on the journey of
life,
ct of gold
When the air seems with sunshine and happi-
ness rife,
-, You thlnk you can never grow weary and old.
The path lies before you,-the descent is but
slight,
And the soft springy turf with fresh dew
drops is pearled.
When your spirits are bright and your tootstep
is light,
It's very nice way, is the way of the world!
When surrounded by friends, you stride gaily
along,
And each weayes for other, green garland> of
bays;
While you tighten the journey with laughter
and song,
Twill be sunshine, you think. to the end of
your days.
IT sleeper the path grows, as still you descend,
What prospects of bliss, are before YOU UNI
furIed,
While the storm still impends, ere you're left
by your friends.
It's very smooth way, is the way Of the
world.
But, ali. when the tempest o'ertakes you at
last;
When clouds and thick darkness the prospect
enfold,
When you wrestle in vain, with the force of
the blast,
Till it leaves you exhausted, and naked and
cold;
When the path you descend, is still shattered
and cleft,
And sharp splintered crags, all around you
lie hurled;
When your friends have all left, when of for
tune you're reft,
It's very hard eroy, is the way of the world

A GooD ANSWER The conductor on
the train which reached Clinton, Ind, from
the West at o'clock Wednesday evening,
was so kind to an old lady when she got oil
the train at Dewitt, and he rendered her
so much assistance in getting her baggage
to the depot, that passenger asked him
if 1.-The old lady was his mother ?"
90, no. was the reply, "but she is
somebody's mother" This is the conduct
of q true gentleman, and is in strange
contrast with that of the shoddy aristocra-
cy which has grown up within the last
few years.

TIE ELOPEMEN1


A few days after her fathers visit, Miss
Dubois obtained permission to visit AL
bany with some friends. Some time after
her departure it occurred to one of the
pupils Of the seminary, who had interest
ed herself in the affair of Miss Dubois
and Mr Marcy to quite an extent, that.
although the day was delightful, the young
lawyer had not been seen III his accus-
toned place on the VerandA of his office.
On making proper inquiry She learned
that he had not been there ut ELL that day.
This aroused her curiosity and excited her
suspicious, leading her to make further
inquiry, and she was informed tnat he
had accompanied Miss Dubois to Albany.
Without further considerable 1, she beiiev-
ed that an elopement had taken place,
and Immediately informed the facu ty that
Young Marcy and Miss Dubois haC fled to
Albany for the purpose OF being clandes-
timely married This aroused them to the
highest pitch OF excitement. The rumor
ran like wildlre through the Institution,
reaching the city in u short space Of time
There was a strange "hurrying to and
iro' in the eminary--cOnsternati was
everywhere mingled with the silent mirth
which the affair had created among many
OF the young ladies' who really enjoyed
the scene Cupid had slyly found a lodg
ment within those walls, dedicated to
science and study, though all thought the
little winged god was sternly forbidden
thereto many known only il the bcauti-
ful dreams of girlhood But he had actu
ally been = sojourner in that temple OF
science; one of its fairest inmates had
yielded to his witchcry-had fled to his
enchanted bowers. Fearing that the wrath
ana influence Of the young lady's father
and her other friends would be turned
against the institution, and drcadng the
odlum which an elopement would bring
upon 1t, an immediate pursuit was decid-
ed upon. The sheriff of the county, with
posse comitatus, was sent in pursuit
aud proceeded with hot haste to Albany.
Learning that the lady was at one of the
principal hotels in the city, he rushed
thither eager to forbid the bans before it
was too late. Sans ceremony he forced
his way into the ladies' paIlor. Miss Du
bois was there enjoying herself with her
friends, but, to the astonishment Of the
sheriff. young Marcy was not present
The officer had entered the room sternly
determined on breaking the chains that
love mad forged with the strong arm OF
the law. He had anticipated tears, cries
and shrieks from the lady, mingled with
deep curses from the lover But no ar
dent lover was there--no priest about to
pronounce the solemn but happy union
could be seen.
NOT AN ELOpEMENT AFTER ALL.
The lady and her friends, taken by sur
prise at the sudden entrance of the sheriff
and his assistants. started to their feet in
alarm. One of the ladies present sum-
moned courage enough to demand Of the
officer what he meant by this intrusion.
Confused and embarrassed by the awk
ward position he found himself in, he said :
