ANSIKISH ROMANCE.
Transported for Fen Years-''I will
Wait, be yOu Faithiul.''

Alexander Sullivan relates, in his sketches
Of New Ireland" an interesting romance
connected with the marriage of Kevin
O'Doherty, one of the prominent members
of the repeal party called ''Young Ireland.
O'Doherty was, at the time of the outbreak
of 1848, u young medical student in Dublin
He was an active contributor to the Nation,
the organ Of the repealers, in which the prin-
ciples of the party were most openly and
earnestly promulgated. Among the women
who furnished rebel verses for the sedtious
press was Miss Eva Mary Kelly, the young
daughter of county Galway gentleman
ODoherty was first attracted by the verses of
the young poetess, and soon after was attrac-
ted by herself. The love of the two sped
smoothly until O'Doherty was arrested,
among others, as conspirator against the
British Government. When his case was
brought to trial the jury twice disagreed, and
before his third arraignment he was offered a
virtual pardon-a merely nominal sentence
if he would plead guilty. The young lover
sent for bis sweetheart to visit him in his
prison and informed her of the proposition.
'It may seem as if did not feel the certainty
of losing you, perhaps forever" said he,
''but don't like this idea of pleading guilty.
Say, what shall do" ''Do," answered the
noble-hearted girl; ''why, be man, and
face the worst. I'll wait for you, however
long the sentence may be-" '.Next day."
writes Mr.. Sulliyan, ''fortune deserted Kevin.
The jury found him guilty. The Judge as
signed him ten years transportation. Eva
was allowed to see him once more in the
cell to say adieu. She whispered in his ear,
BE you faithful, I'N watt And she did.
Years fled by, and the young exile was at
length allowed once more to tread Irish soil.
Two days after he landed at Kingston, Eva
was bis bride" ODoherty is to-day dis

Mr. Bryant's ''Index Expurgatorius, for

in the London journals, and shower of

can be to the word ''aspirant," which he

two main evils of newspaper English-the
undue use of abbreviated forms and the
adoption of technical terms where comm on
words are equally expressive. While the edi-
tor shudders over such denominations as
''pants," ''gents" and ''secesh," and sees no
reason why 'tapis," ''debute, t'artiste" and
''role' should appear in an English paper, he
thinks that Mr.. Bryant rides his hobby too
far when he objects to ''banquet," F." ''raid,"
''talegram" and ''issue," for which he would
substitute ''dinner," ''attack," ''dispatcL,"

[From the Memphis Avalanche Dec. 3Oth]
Capt. Ahrens, neat, nice little blonde of
an eX-Prussian officer, best known to fame
as husband to Pappenhem, caused laugh
able little error at the Peabody Hotel, Christ
mas Eye night. Going to the steward, the
Captain said
Il want supper for twenty-sefen after te
obeera tonidt."
''Certainly, sir from the steward.
''Te tineest you can get up mint you"
''Certainly, sir
The opera was over and the cancatrice was
going to her room. The head waiter steps
out, shows his ivory, and bows.
''They are ready, Madam
''What ?" questioned the great Eugene P.
''The twenty-seven suppers you ordered"
''Me?'' The eyes of the Madam stared.
''Your husband ordered them, Madam
''No, not twenty-sefen supper, put doc
supper for number twenty-sefen room, I Or
ter" said the little captain, as he came up
with his great spouse's wraps.
An explanation followed. The cancatrice's
room was No, 81, but the steward understood
the captain to mean twenty-seven suppers,
there being just twenty-seven members of
the troop staying at the hotel.
The bill was settled.

Men and women, masters and servants, all
inhabit the same room, while the cleanliness
is not much attended to; but poor as they
are, and accustomed to great privations, they
are an example of cheerful contentment.
The beauty of the young girls is remarkable;
their fair hair falls in long plaits, partially
covered by black cloth Golf, dainty worn
on one side OF the head, and finished at the
top with a tassel of colored silk, run through
silver or steel buckle, which floats on the
shoulder. 1t reminds the traveller of the
Greek head-dress, but the blue eyes, with
their sweet benevolent expression, recall to
his mind their Danish origin. The dress is
made of the cloth woven in the country, and
on festive days the bodice is gaily adorned
with silk braid and velvet, while the belt and
sleeves are ornamented with silver devices,
beautifully chased and often of great value
On wet and cold days the shawl becomes
useful mantle, completely enveloping the
head, and defends the wearer from the ef-
fects of the recent storms - Chambers Jour-

TeeStitUtiOn I'm New York.

The Secretary of the Association for I'm
proving the Condition of the Poor" says
that ''the destitution in New York was never
SO great as now, and want is reaching a class
to whom it has hitherto been stranger" :"
Although the weather in December of last
year was so much more severe than the past
month has been, the number of applications
for relief has been nearly double that of last
year at a corresponding time. Not long since
a lady applied to the association for relief,
who, a few years ago, lived on Madison ave-
nue. in comfort and luxury. She now occu-
pies a basement room of tenement house
with her little children, and is dependent upon
the association until she can obtain some
pupils to whom she can give lessons. A mer-
chant who, short time ago, was worth many
thousands, now lives in garret, utterly
without means, until he can find employ
ment. Such cases simply illustrate the vicis-
STUDIES of life. Let those who are able
kindly help the less fortunate. None can
tell how soon the time may come when they
themselves may need sympathy and assis-
tance.

THE NASQUE OF MONTHS.

With bright Or somb1e gear, with smile Or frown OF
song
In masque the months go gliding perpetually along.
First, January is here, with eyes that keenly glow,
A frost-nailed warrior stridng a shadoW-steed of
snow.
Then February, form pale-vestured, wildly fair
One of fhe North Winds daughters with icicles in her
hair
Then March, blackrobed in storm, the dread of home
bound ships,
Who flies over lands and waters with trumpet at her
lips
Then April gloom and shine, and, merry, willful
With crocus in her tresses and with tears upon her
cheek
Then May, the nymph divine, with shoulders white as
Der canoped by caresses of butterflies and of BIRDS
Then June whose beauties vie with the roses richest
shade
So sweet to set us dreaming that rose has grown
a maid.
Then passionate young July, that proud, hot-tem-
Who bears thou gh of genial seeming aghtning-Lash
tor q sword
Then August grave serene, dame Of stately grace
pied face.
Then soft September. in nunlike vail of mist
With lashes that hide demurely two glimmers of
amethyst.
Then flushed October, she whose Joys with pain are
blent,
Like queen whose soul is aching amid pomps mag
nifcent
Then dull November, free from hope, desire or care
Have done with all heartbreaking, being simply cold
despair.
And last December drear, with pteous, low-drooped
head,
In voice of desolation crying out 'The year is dead ~
And so with changefu gear with smile or frown or
song,
The months in strange variation, are ever gliding
along.

AN experimental coinage Of goloid will be

Committee on Coinage, at an early day, suf-
fcient to furnish each Senator and Repre-
sentative with specimen of the dollar, half
and quarter dollar. This is new metal COM
posed of silver, gold and copper, of such
density of character that it will resist the
wear of handling, and defy the action OF
muriatic acid. The saving in the wear of
800, ,OoO. 600 will he $500, 600 annually over
that of silver, and large percentage on gold,
and hence so much would be saved to the
Government or the people annually on that
amount. It also approximates in intrinsic
value more closely to gold than any other
metal now known, and preserves its equi-
librium in the scale Of precious metals. This
is the claim set up for it by its advocates.

The Literary World for January contains
the following graceful poem by Mr.. Whittier,
written in acknowledgment of the multitude
of affectionate tributes called out by the cele-
bration of his SEVENTEEN birthday:
Beside that milestone where the level sun,
Nigh unto setting, sheds his las, low rays
On word and work irrevocably done,
Lies blending threads of coed and Ill outspun.
Il hear, Q friends! your words of cheer and praise
Half doubtful If myself or otherwise,
Like him who. in the old Arabian joke,
"A beggar slept and crowned Caliph woke.
Thanks not the less. With not unglad surprise
see my life-work through your partial eyes;
Assured In giving to my home taught songs
higher value than of right belongs.
You do but read between the written lines
The finer grace of untitled designs.

THE question as to whether juror has any
rights which sheriff is bound to respect is
to be determined in Cincinnati. Martin Ham,
mersmidt juror in the DodswoEth murder
case, states that he was with eleven other
men, confined for seven days in dirty and
badly ventilated room, compelled to lie on
straw mattress, with little or no covering.
He declares that his seven days experience in
the jury-room caused him to sustain great
pain and bodily injury. and he sues the
Sheriff and County Commissioners for the
sum of $4,000. Without discussing the
merits of this particular case, we say, with
out hesitation, that we are glad Mr.. Hammer
smidt b as struck the first blow at an evil that
should receive public attention. There is no
reason why gentleman serving on jury
should not be treated as gentleman.

Colo and Silver Yield for 1878.

The Engineering and Mining Journal of .
recent date contains an interesting article on
the mineral resources of this Territory, and
gives the following figures Gold yield for
1877, $3,55O,O 900; silver, $1,000, 900; lead,
$5O,UOO; copper. 100000. Montana shows
continuation o. the gratifying improvement
OF last year. The principal causes of ad-
vance in this Territory is the increased atten-
tiOn being paid to quartz mining, and the
success met i'll Butte, Philippsburg, Glendale
and other silver districts AS will be noticed,
also, Montana is shipping more copper ore
than any other country OF the West, not even
excepting New Mexico. The yield of silver
is also assuming large proportions, and at
the same time, the gold product from both
placers and veins is advancing.
Silver mining at Butte has been especially
vigorous and successful during the year. 1t
is probable that this camp alone will produce
million in silver during the year 1878. The
Philippsburg mines have been worked spas
medically during the year, but this camp
will ultimately struggle out OF the present
difficulties by the sheer weight of its own
innate wealth.
Gold quartz mining shows a fair advance.
While at Unionville nearly all the operations
have ceased on the famous Whitlach Union
mine, large number of other auriferOus
veins are in successful operation. The old
stamp mills built in 1862 and 1868, and which
have been idle for years, are being one by
one refurnished and placed in operation. The
Territory is somewhat in need of matte smelt-
ing works for the treatment of its pyritous
gold ores, but this will come in time. Mean
while there are plenty of free milling ores on
either side.
The placer interests show plainly the signs
of revival. In Grasshopper, Confederate
and Alder gulches, which were famous for
their gold in early days, large fumes have
been completed and extensive operations in
augurated. A similar enterprise is reported
to be contemplated in Last Chance. Many
of the other famous gulches are producing
well-a scheme has been inaugurated to wash
out some extensive bars in the Madison, and
altogether healthier tone prevails in this
branch of mining than has ever been wit
messed since their discovery. 1t is to be ex-
pected that Montana's bullion shipments will
now advance in quantity at the rate of nearly
a million annually. She is already the fourth
on the list, having displaced Utah, and with
out doubt will retain that position.
