almost the embodiment Of female lovelincss

on the bright and sunshiny day that saw
them united until death do part.

ST. Valentine has come and gone With
his grotesque caricatures Of humanity, and
elaborate constructions Of the fancy sta
toner. Mardi Gras ia the next in order,
and il Is amazing to what lengths Of eS-
travagance and folly American people are
led by this semi-barberous festival. King
Carnival never held greater sway in the
fascinating annals Of benighted age than
in our Southern cities. 1t is an establish
ed fact that the Mysiicke Crewe Of Comus
cannot flourish except in our French city
Of the Gulf All other celebrations Of the
King Of Misrule are but feeble limitations.
REMiSIscEScE.
Circuit Court finds 30 little to feed upon
that the records are Of necessity minus the
spice Of life. Unfortunately, the spice Of
our life in Central Kentucky has so long
been OF, the fashionable hue--cardinal-that
ordinary cases Of delinquency make no
lasting impression on the sands OF time.
Twenty years ago there were six murder
ers confined in the old Jail at the corner Of
Stanford and Mulberry streets. The moss
grown structure with patches Of reddish
brown brick peeping through the time
worn paint seemed ever ready to crnmble
to earth with age and infrmity; yet behind
its rusty iron bars cleaned the restless
eyes of these unhappy criminals. A little
afflicted boy was wont to visit their den Of
misery and ait on their knees, cheering
with fearless words-of innocent faith their
gloomy hours of waiting. Every dsv the
gaunt men watched for their pure little
comforter. Every day his tiny carriage
stopped before the prison doors. At length
the end came, and the old Court house was
crowded to hear the eloauence of Bell
Vanwinkle, and others whose genius had
often pardoned or condemned. Now, the
story is not as white as wool, vet the lapse
of wears has materially lightened lis color,
and our tyenty.6ye-thousand-do dollar struct-
ure contains no such array of Gains. The
ministering child has been lifted on high
bv the Everlasting Arms. and the archives
Of his native village have been somewhat
ruril;ed. Thus Il ia that at the present
Court the civil docket is mipus cases Of ex.
traordinary interest. and only one or two
mark the criminal docket. There has been
the usual amount of Commonwealth bus.
