command of the Wachusett While there he gave
some attention to canal matters, and he writes
'that De Lesseps has several small surveying par
ties, composed of French engineers, with native
laborers at work on different points along the
route. So far no construction work has been COM
menced, Captain Lull is more than ever convinc-

Fun Among the 20 cts.


Some years since, David Barker, dis.
tinguished poet in the state of Maine, after
the birth of his first child, wrote and pub
lished the following pretty poem
One night rs old st. Peter slept,
He left tho door of heaven ajar,
When through 4 little angel crept.
And came down with q falling star.
One summer rs the blessed beams
OF morn approached, my Dlushtng Drlde
Awakened from some pleasing dreams
And found that angel by her side.
God grant but this-I ask no more
That when he leaves this world OF pain
He'll wing his way to that bright shore,
And find the road to heaven again.
John G. SAKE, not to be OutdOne, and
deeming that injustice had been done to
St. Peter, wrote the following as
st. Peters Reply.
Full eighteen hundred years or more
I've kept my gate securely fast
There has no - little angel straycd,
Nor rccrcant through the portal passed.
! did not sleep as you supposed,
Nor LETT the door of heaven ajar,
Nor has " little angel left,
And gone down with 4 falling star.
Go ask that blushing bride, and see
If she don't frankly own ana say
That when she found that angel babe
She found it I'm the good old way.
God grant but this-I ask no more
That should your number still enlarge
YOu will not do ~ done before,
And lay 1t to Old Peters charge.
