This Baby Of OuFu.

There's not blossom Of beautiful Nay,
Silver Of daisy or daGodil gay,
Nor the rosy bloom Of apple tree flowers,
Fair IS the face Of this baby Of ours.
You can never hnd on bright June day
bi! OF fair sky 30 CHEEKY and gay,
Nor the haze on the hills, in MONDAY hours,
Blue As the eyes Of this baby Of ours.
There's not murmuT OF wakening bird,
The cleArest, sweetest that ever was heard
In the tender hush Of the dAwn's stil hours,
Soft as the laugh of this baby Of ours.
There's no gossamer silk Of tasselled corn,
No fimsiest thread Of the shy wood-fern,
Not even the cobweb spread over the flowers,
Fine rs the hair Of this baby Of ours.
There's no fairy shell by the sounding sea,
No wild rose that mods on the windy lea,
No blush Of the sun through Aprils soft shower
Pink as the palms Of this baby OF ours.
May the dear Lord spare her to us, We pray,
For many long and sunshiny day,
Ere he takes to bloom in Paradise bowers
This wee bit darling, this baby Of ours.

The Bea-Fog.

The Bea-Fog.
Upon the cliff 8 steep edge 1 stand;
The moaning sea hear;
But gray mists hang DER sea and land,
The misis that sailors fear.
The lichened rocks, the moses red,
with silver drops are sown;
Each crimson fo1glove hangs It's head
Amid the old gray stone.
The fearful rock within the bay,
Where gallant ships go down,
Shows but fsint white line Of spray,
glimmOring mass Of brown.
broken boat, a spot Of black,
IL tossed on sullen waves,
Their erests all dark with rifted wraet,
The spoil Of ocean caves.
Now sails my love on sea to-day:
Heaven shield his boat from harml
Heaven keep him from the dangerous bay,
Till winds and waves be calmi
oh, would he sat beside our stove,
where mother turns her wheel;
know too soon, for you, my love,
What wives Of sailors feel.
oh, that within the wood-Are' glow
He told us tales Of yore,
OF perils over long ago,
And ventures come to shore.
His hand belize ia on the helm;
The fog has hid the foam;
The surf that shall his boat o'erwhelm
He thinks the beach At home.
He sees lamp amid the dark,
He thinks our pane Allght;
And hAply on some storm-bound bark
He founders in the night.
Now God be with you; He who gave
Our constant love and troth;
where'er your oar may dip the wave,
You bear the hearts Of both.
Through storm and mist God keep my love,
That may hear once more
Your boat upon the shingled cove,
Your step upon the shore.

VARIETIES THEATER. -Buckstone's comedy,
Married Life and the farce. "Forty Winks''
held the boards at this theater last evening.
Married Life has always been favorite
with the New Orleans public, and its pre-.
sentation by Mr.. Owens company was most
creditabe in all particulars. Mr.. Owens un-
dertook the character of Hevry Dove, much
married man. Need we add that he carried
with him tine house. The balance of the
characters, which brought out the Varieties
strength, was well sustained, and though we
may not in justice particularize, yet favora-
frain from giving. This little lady has grad
ually grown into prominent place in the
estimation of the patrons of the Varieties
Theter. Her efforts are always marked by a
careful appreciation of the authors portal
ture, and the result is always a we'll defined
rendition.
We clip the following from the st. Louis
Republican. 1t is strong testimony of Mr..
Joseph Emmet's ability:
De Bars Opera House.-A full house greeted
Jos. Emmett, the great ST. Louis fayorite,
again last night. Those who have seen Mr..
Emmett during the present engagement hardly
recognize the present play of Fritz as the one
given during his previous engagements, SO
much has it been b autlfed and toned down,
and then the new songs, new costumes and
effects are great improvement also.
Mr.. Emmett is one of the sweetest singers

1t is related that Senator Isaac P. Chris
tiancy, recently elected to the United States
from Michigan, was, in his boyhood, resi-
dent OF the hamlet of Garoga, Fulton county,
N. Y. His father was engaged in making
salve, which he peddled through the coun-
try, and thus gained livelihood, while young
Isaac drove team for other parties and drew
lumber in the Johnstown market. They
pronounce the name Crestyoncy.

i ACADEMY OF MUs1c.-As Mrs. Burgh in
"Charity" last night, Miss Alice Dunning
Lingard displayed power and insouciance
that won golden opinions from the fashion
able audience present. Miss Cummings &C t.
ing is characterized with great deal of sweet.
ness and naturalness; indeed, therein lies her
chief at raction, and her depletion of sor-
rowing and repentant woman is an excellent
and mastery portraiture Mr.. VIM. Horace
Lingard as MIR. Fitzpartington, a detective,
is afforded great scope to display his histrionic
abilities. His rendition of the part is very
acceptable and correct, his facial expressions
being really wonderful.
Miss Dickie Lingard played Ruth Tredgett
with skill and cleverness. The leading sup
port from the regular company was exception
ally good, and the piece throughout ran
smoothly. The character sketches of Mr..
Lingayd, which succeeded the play, were of the
most entertaining character, and are really
the most enjoyable feature of the entertain
ment. For tonight "Charity" will be re-
peated.
ST. CHARLES THEATER.-Mr. Muir ply at
the Old Drury still holds forth in Maum
Cre." His opportunities for sustaining his
we'll deserved reputation as a delineator of the
Irish school of drama, are in this play every
thing that could be wished for. His brogue
is perfection, his dancing good, while his
vocal efforts are above those of the average
actor, whose claims oftentimes are based
solely upon their own conceit. His dramatic
situations in Maum Gre are most effective,
and as he always comes out best man in the
end his audience leaves we'll satisfied with
performance whose merit is not of the au-
too many prominent characters in a play,
written for one specific purpose, that of
bringing out the star.
GAyETY THEArER. wintry visitation of
Old Boreas last night did not detract from the
attendance at the Gayety last night. The
variety performa nce was of the most enter
tanning character, and frequent bursts of APP

audience present. The performance closed

Hon Il. p. Cotton, master of the state

that the existence and usefulness Of the
Order depends upon such social and educa.
tional conventions. find that weak
oranges are strengthened by exchanging ideas
with members from the stronger"
There is wisdom and volumes of truth in
the above assertion. Vermont oranges are
suffering to-day severely for want Of county
or district organizations, where We can ex-
change views relative to our educational,
social and business interests where we can
meet our state officers and agents, aud our
local agents can meet together TO compare
their savings upon purchases, have discussions
upon such matters as interest farmers and q
social basket dinner or a picnic. Then we
need county or district stores or warehouses.
Manufacturers will Gil them with goods aud
samples for examination and purchase. The
oranges Of Vermont are not building as
wisely as eur churches or Good Templars
are They have their quarterly conferences
and unions and they are well attended, and
are great aids in their work. In December
1873, at the state grange meeting, the edi-
tor Of this department advocated such meet.
ings and introduced an article as an amend
ment to the state grange constitution author
iEing such councils or unions TO be formed.
1t found no friends and was voted down
almost unanimously. To-day almost every
member Of the grange advocates grange
unions Of soma kind. The meeting in Wash.
iugton county should DO followed by similar
meetings in every county in Vermont, and
they should DO held at least quarterly here
after, and Ground the counties at, aud with
the different oranges, grange conventions
held during the day and public addresses
given in the evening. This course would aid
the weaker oranges and give large accession'
to their membership.
