For one sweet kiss from thy dear lips
I'd lay me down and die;
I'd lay me down and die, my love.
For one sweet little kiss,
And deem it a proud privilege

A PEN PORTRAIT

The Rev. McGhee, formerly of Lock
Haven, but now of Illinois, has been
convicted of numbering his wife by
poison. A correspondent of the Chi
cago Times, who took a look at sister
Paddock (the girl the preacher want.
ed to marry) while she occupied the
witness stand, pictures her in this way
ain stature, Miss Rilla is about the me-
dium height, weighs about one hun.
dred and fifty pounds, and, as one OF
tho occupants of the ministerial bench
remarked, is built from the ground up
ward for country girl. She is ex-
ceedingly graceful, and the way she
handles her fan is the way of nine
tenths of the eaudience. She is dressed
in neat black gown. Around her
neck she wears n broad lace collar,
circled by blue ribbon. Her bonnet
is fine specimen of the milliner's art,
adorned with white flowers. Her face
is covered with a thin veil. Her hair
is dark brown and full her forehead
is broad and not too high; her eye is
brown and soft and confding. Her
cheeks appear soft, are rich in color,
and not too full her nose is almost
pure Grecian-remarkableior for so plump
a face; her lips are of the pouting
kind, and chin is finely modelled. Such
is Rilla Paddock handsome, modest,
prepossesslng young lady. Her man
ncr, as she speaks, too, is most win
ming. In soft, clear, and well-modu-
lated voice she gives her testimony in
faultless English" Well, it's no won
der that angelic form led the preacher
astray 80 far that he will now be en-
tertained in the Illinois penitentiary
for fifteen years, where he will have o
rare opportunity for exercising his
clerical talents.

ANOTHER VERDICT FOR TILDEY.-A
very singular law suit came off at
Goshen, Illinois, one day last week.
The Chicago Times states it in this
way; "Last fall, several days after the
Presidential election, Isaac Ayrcs Of
Elkhart, offered to bet 800 that Til.
den and Hendricks had received q ma
jority of the electoral votes cast. Sew
eral Republican politicians accepted
the offer of Ayres, and Jas. +. Hunt, q
dry goods merchant, was appointed
the stakeholder. When tho result OF
the election was declared by Congress,
Hunt turned over the money to the
Republicans under protest, Ayres at
the time declaring that he would sue
him for the money. Ayres sued Hunt
in Elkhart and was beaten, but ap.
pealed the case to the Circuit Court,
which came up before Judge Woods,
The jury, after hearing the testimony
returned verdict in favor of Ayres
for 500. This is the third case of the
kind that has occurred in the United
States, each one resulting the same as
this one did,"

A Scion OF RoYALrY.-lt is stated
that Gen. Ord, now in command of the
United States troops on the Rio Grande,

Prince Regent. Tho Consent of Par
Lament had not been given, and the
marriage was illegal in English law.
A son was born by this union and con
signed TO a tutor named Ord, who EN-
igrated with him to this country. The
youth took the name of his tutor, and
