The friends that loved In December
And cherished 90 fondy in May,
Have long since forgot TO remember.
And vanished like dew drops away.
The bright hoars Of Joy aud sweet pleasure
May never awaken again,
To thrill me bv eight Of thetressure
Tsst's lost in this terrible pain.
The pain Of ingratitude kills me,
And leaves me . wreck on the shore
Like Petrol tossed by the Wild sea
Where the storm and the dark pillows roar.
The, language is somewhat indefnite
and she nsures Imperfect. but the mean
ing b plain enough.
The next four verses are very clear
and pointed:
In sunshine and power I was toasted
And feasted by couruers knd,
And oh how the parasites boosted
OF the wonderful tnits Of my mind.
n.
They called me genius, so noted.
And dweit on the glsace Of my eye;
The mob then shouted and voted
without asking the show or the why
Bat when the dsrl hosr ofny trouble
Arose like storm In the sky,
The vipers began to play dsnble
And forgot the fright glance of my eye.
The ninth verse Il an enigma, known
only to Joyce and his friends In the whis-
Ky ring:
We can bear m, .-l agnt to the eud,
Asaipst the cold hate ofthe world.
Bu, when struck in the house Of friend
our banner Of bravery is furied.
But Joyce Is not wholly deserted. His
friends have been false and hollow, but
his misfortunes have proved the truth
and faithfulness Of woman. And to the
one her. whose constancy is his only SOL
ace now, his muse pays this tribute:
But there's ONE who will never forget;
Her name TN not mention to you.
Ye, she knows where We lovingly met
And p,ighted our faith to be true.
Down deep in my heart have keptn,
A secret SO sweet and profound,
For many long years I've caressedit
Asa bliss upon earth seldom found.
Oh woman! 30 tender and true,
So fearless of sneer or Of frown,
Who so ready and constant as Won
To aid poor mortal when down?
Poor. wicked, weak Joyce. His feeble
rhymes contain the lesson the whole ex-
periencc of erring mankind teaches-that
the way OF the trangrcssor is hard.

or 10 solve some OF the intricacles OF the
problems in practical mechanics. AT all
events. il will make him the skilled work
man, to earn the highest wages Of his
class bv his full comprehension OF the
tasks assigned him, and the accuracy and
thoroughness with which he performs
them.
As is we'll known, under the old sys-
ten, no small portion Of the time Of ap-
premiership was spent in acquiring those
elementary notions and that elementary
skill Of hand which might have been
easily acquired before the boy left his
school; and this preliminary practical
Judgment and dexterity is no small part
Of every trade knowledge. 1t is related
Of the English ship-carpenters that when
the change was made from wooden to
iron vessels, in the absence OF skilled
iron workers, they were temporarily en-
ployed, and It was then found that with
short stage Of apprenticeship they be-
came expert in the new employment.
Your committee believe that the study
OF drawing in the public schools has just
this direct practical etfect,-to shorten
the apprentice state OF mechanic lie, and
so prove an economy Of materials and an
economy Of effective industry. II will
increase the value OF all mechanical Ia
Dor by the habits Of accuracy and dexter
ity with which it furnishes the boy en-
erging from school life.
The tendency OF our time Is to more
thorough and enduring workmanship in
architecture, 10 u greater perfection in
machinery, 10 labor.saving inventions,
and to what issometimes callen decorative
art in its manifold forms. These all de.
mand skilled labor; and it will be noticed
that those nations where drawing has
been taught in the elementary schools
have hitherto taken the lead in such
profitable industries.
But the Influence OF such training and
such habits upon female character, and
in household occupations, would hardly
be less favorable, as your committee are
convinced, though they will not swell this
report by any attempt to illustrate this
thought,
We close by urging people to see what
has already been done, and to- consider
the possible, or rather the probable, re-
suits Of this instruction in increasing the
effective capacity Of the people in after
life.
We are sure that, with such observa.
tion and reelection, a judicious system Of
drawing in the public schools will com
mend itself to the approval OF every in
telligent person.

TIE EMIGRANT SHIP srRATHMoRE.
The Times this morning has an editorial
on the subject Of the adventures OF the
emigrant ship Strathmore, which con-
cludes rs follows: "The vessel which at
length came to rescue them was a United
States whaler on her course to the South
Sea fisheries. Her captain, We are told,
gave up the chance OF seasons profits for
the sake OF the poor creatures he found at
Crozet, and who needed an amount Of care
they could not have received II he had ta-
ken them with him. We are sure that
the English nation will judge as it de-
serves OF the sacrifice to which Capt. Gif-
ford submitted, and will not fail to do
honor, and something more than bare
honor, TO the deed and to the man."
THE HERzEdovINIAS QUESTION.
The Times has Berlin special contain
ing the following: The Russian press is
gradually Withdrawing from the consery-
ativc position assumed at the beginning
Of the rebellion in Herzegovina. Neither
the necessity Of keeping Turkey intact
nor the expediency OF Russia acting co.
jointly with Austria is longer insisted on.
The Inpalide Russo on the contrary, at
tributes the dangerous position Of the in
surgents to the Austrian Partially for
Turkey, forgetting entirely that the. AUS
trian proceedings have been SO long sup
ported by Russia.
The Moscow Gazette, which is always
we'll informed in foreign matters, has
suddenly changed It's tone, II proposes
the Turkish troops to be Withdrawn from
Herzegovina, and the province either
ceded to or placed under the administra.
ton Of the Prince OF Montenegro, whom
return might be induced to recognize the
Sultan rs his Suzerain. This suggestion
is put forward. because the Gazette thinks
all Of the carrying out Of the reform pro-
gramme must be abandoned while there
are Turkish troops in Herzegovina, and
while the Porte Is penniless and impotent
to do anything efIectual, without mem
tioning Austriahs we'll known opposition
to any such plans. The Gazette concludes
by inviting England to cooperate with
Russia for This purpose. N.

4 PROSPECTIVE DEMOCRATIC UNpLEAs.
ASrNEss-There is prospect Of trouble
at Charleston on the sth OF June, in refer
ence to the selection Of u nominee for
Governor. The home organ Of Mr..
Faulkner, the Martinsburg Stateman,
gives uncquivOcal notice that it will not
only not support Attorney General
Mathews, ii nominated, but, more than
that, it will do all in its power to defeat
him. Here is its plump and plain public
proclamation to the Democracy OF the
State:
There arc six good and true men in this
State, whose political garments are not
smirched nor soiled, upon one OF whom we
hope the nomination ior governor may
fall. These are Judge Jno. b. Hodge,
Thomas Maslin, Ex-Governor Samuel
Price, p. G. Eastman, Jonathan NJ. Ben
nett and Judge G. D. Camden. With
either OF these gentlemen to head the
State ticket We can go into the canvass
assured OF victory. But we say it plump
and plain that il the Baker.Walker-Bur-
dett ring, and their right-handed radical
stool-pigeons, succeed in getting control
Of the State convention, and they put up
II. NJ. Mathews, we'll help TO rally the
good and true men Of the party and COM
pass his defeat. Thousands Of Democrats
in the State stand ready to back us in
teaching the ring tickstcrs that they can-
not longer dominate.
The above pronunciamento sounds
like business, and we shall miss our
guess il il does not fall like bomb'shell !
in the Democratic camp. The special
feature Of this defiant announcement is
that it comes from regular confederate.
gray source, and is therefore not to be
pooh.pOohed as Radical machinatiOn Of
any sort. We had supposed that Mathews,
