sIamese Twins In am Oyster Bed.

The clerk of the steamer Maggie, of
the Eastern Shore Steamboat Company,
has brought to the city remarkable
oyster that had been caught in the Ches-
apeake. The oyster is, apparently, two
oysters fastened together, as is often the
case. The pecuharity, however, is that
while there were two distinct oysters,
they were fastened together hgature
running from heart to heart, the shell
that divided them being very thin, and
showing that there was really but one
oyster contained in the three shells. The
same gentleman has also an old bottle
into which an oyster had become imbed-
cd, remaining until it was too large to
get out. baltimore Bulletin.

The Coming Man.

A pair Of very chubby legs,
Encased in scarlet hose
A pair OF little stubby boots,
With rather doubtful toes
A little kilt little coat,
Out as mother can
Audio before us strides, in state,
The Futures looming man."
Ills eyes, perchancs, will read the stars,
And search their unknown ways;
Perchance the human heart and soul
win open to their gaze;
Porchance their keen and flashing glance
Win be nations light
Those eyes that now are wistful bent
On some chg fellows" Z" kite.
That brow, where mighty thoughts will dwell
In solemn, secret state
Where fierce Ambitions restless strength
Shall war with future fate;
Who're Science from now hidden caves
New treasures shall outpour-
Tis knit now, with troubled doubt,
Are two, or three, cents more?
Those lips that, in the coming years,
Will plead, or prsy,1or teach
Whose whispered words, on lightning dash,
From world to world may reach;
That stefnly grave, may speak command,
Or, smiling, win control
Are coaxing now for ginger bread
With all baby's soul
Those hands-those little busy bands
30 sticky, small and brown;
Those hands, whose only mission SCENE
To tear all order down.
Who knows what hidden strength may lie
Within their future grasp,
Though now tbs but tany-stiek
In sturdy hold they clasp2
Ah, blessings on those little hands,
Whose work is yet undonei
And blessings on those little feet,
Whose race is yet unrun
And blessings on the little brain
That has not learned to plan!

God bless the looming mani"

Men are generally more honest in
their private than in their public capac-
ity, and will go greater length to serve a
party than when their own private inter
est is alone concerned. Honor is a great
check upon mankind, but where a con-
siderable body of men act together this
check is in a great measure removed,
since a man is sure TO be approved of by
his own party for what promotes the
common interest, and he soon learns TO
despise the clamors of adversaries

hopelestly ignorant Of Irish affairs, and
he is 80 vain and self-suticlent that he
never tries to learn. He invariably op'
