Each on his own strict line we move,
And some find death ere they find love, 81 -
SO far apart their lives are thrown
From the twin soul that halyes their own.
And sometimes, by still harder fate,
The lovers meet, but meet too late. yG.fvlJ
Thy heart is mine-True, true! ali true.
Then, love, thy hand-Ah, no! adieul

THERE is nothing like making the best
OF ones opportunities. That, at least,
was the view taken by w illianl Smith,
a prisoner on trial in the Criminal Court
of Memphis. In thecoupse Of the trial
the attorneys for and against the pris-
oner enteredSinto an sarSument which
progressed into an exchange of abuse
and eliminated in a rough-and-tumble
fight. This proved SO interesting tothe
officers thai they forgot all about VIII
liam, who quietly walked ont of the
room, handouts and all, and made his
escape. a.. .r4RTv

SPEAKING of society in Washington,
and its reporters, correspondent of the
Boston Globe SAYS; = q OF late years the
jenkins business has been done mostly
by women-'lady correspondents, as
they stvle themselves. You would be
amazed to know how these women are
sought after by the leaders and devotees
of fashionable society," who are eager
to see their names in print and TO have
the public acquainted with their enter
tainments. The female jenkins is al
ways invited, but she is often taken be-
hind the scenes before the show begins
and furnished by the'lady of the house
with minute description of the salient
points of the reception, wedding, din
ner-party, or whatever itmay be 4 his
is done in ORDER to avoid sInistake ,
which, IN the daysaof blundering male
jenkins, were sometimes very embar-
RAISING. Not a few write accounts of
their entertainments themselves, ard
send them to the local newspapers,
when jenkins fails to put in an appear
ance-any thing rather than to fail of a
notice. Che meHare as vain7and fool
ish about these things as the women
l have seen a grave-looking Congress-
men 60 up to a Jenkins at a reception
and give him description of his wife's
toilet, and then spell his own name and
that of his beloved carefully, SO that
there should be ne mistake about it.n
