weeks, ho seeds Us the poetic fragment gwen

door on the premises of 40 old farmer living
near Winchester Ooe night, the farmer says,
young man with wild and beely look applied
at his house for lodgings, and was given ac.
commodatioDS in the baro. At daybreak next
nornior, when the old nan went OUT to Iced
his stock, the stranger Was gone, and tho lIl-
lowing poem, with Poc's initials attached, wH
found written on the barn door:
MARIENNE
Mary Ann her parents named her,
But she wrote it MaIiennc;
And though angels have rot claimed her.
She's az fair as any.
For her eyes arc dark aud gloomy,
And her nose is sort o bloOmy,
And her mouth is rather rooIny--
And have angels whispered to ME,
."Naricnnc?"
No. not any.
When fantastic shapes and shadows
Danced in larkllng glcns and meadows,
Fairies gay and bright aud bcaming,
With pale star light lustre cleaning,

But my dream Of life is broken,
Aud my tale cI love unspokcu;
For with gloomy eyes wide open,
Leaving neither sigh nor token,

One whose hair wa9 long and yellow,
And his head both thick aud mclloa;
And DO you think that J. shall mellow
Tor Maricnnc?
Nary any. Il. A. J..
The asterisks in the poem, it may be as well
to explain, represent gap made by the farmer
Inadvertently backing up against the barn door
TO acralch his back. The beautiful thoughts
thus obIiicracd are forever lost to The literary
world. Jealousy may impcl some of our con-

Politics in France.

From this distance the action of the
French government in regard to the Munich
pal Council of Amiens has an extremely ar
bitrary and tyrannical appearance. No
doubt municipal councils are created for
other purposes than to further political
demonstrations; but it does not lie in the
mouth Of the administration to allege that
the council is dissolved for that cause, inas-
much as every intelligent person the world
around will recognize that the disso-
luton itself is political demonstra-
ton of the most extreme type 1t
would be pleasant to be able to believe that
politics in our sister Republic are placed in
the high stage of separating Office from
party, but we are compelled to recognize
that the alliance Of officials with party only
seems to the government a fragrant offence
when it is with the wrong party. Certainly
the patience OF the republicans is put to
severe tests, and we hope they may be able
to endure until the elections bring the
legitimate remedy; but We apprehend that
the delibernte intention is to put them in
the wrong before the country by driving
them into positions from which insurrec-
tion is the only issue.
