BY ALIx R. KoCsIs.

Each wise man has penned a sonnet,
To this beautiful new comet;
And 1 hope that you will listen to the words
have to say.
Though they be not grand, or many,
They are meant to give to any
One, hit, who says this comet is to hurl us
all from day.
Once upon time woman,
Who was neither sprite nor human,
But who had her habitation high above my
home and me,
Glanced to raise six lovely daughters,
Who grew radisa: las they ought to6
And this woman and six daughters, then
made seven, as you see.
But one girl from out the number,
Soon grew tired of the sumber
That the others only varied bya twinkle,
now and then;
And she fed, from home and mother,
Never mingling with the other
Six, unless she twinkled in a while and
twinkled out again.
You have heard the story, have you?
Well, thought so, but save you
From exposing too much knowledge on this
clear and f-osty breeze.
So tell you, that these ladies
Did not live in gloomy Hades,
But high up among the planets, and their
name is Pleades.
May ne'er be so inhuman
AS to hint that any woman,
Loves to chose and see her pathway, or to
strive for civil rights.
1t is merely second-handed,
What tell you, and was landed
Into my sphere of knowledge by some won-
derful young sprites.
This fair prodigal, in wonder,
Oft beheld the gorgeous splendor
or the sun, who shines alike on those who
go or those who stay;
And she found her own lot lonely,
And grew angry, thinking only
That the sun has no more business than the
star in endless day.
So she said: 81 soon shall charm him,
Or, if not shall alarm him;
And viii! teach him to turn up his nose on
me, because Pm small.
In panier, and hustle,
With long train shall rustic
And when all the planets turn to look, his
pride will surely fall"
Out she sailed without bonnet
And the earth exclaimed, "a Comet p
While old Sol just merely winked, TO see the
fun we had in store.
And into her may dances,
OFF, gOod-naturedly he prances,
Until the beautiful long train, in two he
sadly tore.
Meier did Lind or Adelina,
In an operetic scena,
Gain one-half as mauy glances through the
mighty telescope.
And though Mr.. Booth has pleaded,
He has never yet succeeded
In drawing men from morning maps tc
clutch microscope.
But this fascinating woman,
Who is neither sprite nor human,
Seems disgusted with our homage, since thu
sun is still unmoved;
And shines not quite so brightly,
Nor dances quite so sprightly,
But the merest million number of miles ha
now removed.
Ye astronomers, who listen,
II you think the silly glsten
OF panier and hustle, and a pearly satil
train,
Is sufficiently inducing,
Or sufficiently seducing,
To upset the wisest man Of you, and thro,
him off the main,
Then indeed, we will be getting
Ready for the grand upsetting,
That Will prove old Sol human in his hea
and in his heart.
II you think not, we'll not quarrel,
But will try to draw moral,
For the fair young danes, who aim so O.
the fascinating dart.

Setting Strawberries,

A correspondent of the Germantown
Telegraph says that the main failure in
raising Strawberries is in setting poor
plants. Old plants are good for moth
ing; new plants from an old bed are
not worth setting. We should not set
plants from those that have grown from
those that have never fruited. When
a plant produces crop of fruit that
fruit exhauSts the energies of the plant
to a certain extent, and its young
plants will not have the constitution
and vigor of those from plants that
give all their energies to the young
plants.

A RsBsL AND ABRAHAM LINCOLN.

About two years agU, llst as | was dis
missing party of visitors from the door of
the catacomb, very plain, modest looking
man OF middle age, approached and said he
had come to see and learn all he could
about the monument and Lincoln. | pro.
ceeded in my usual way, when visitors are
much interested, and completed my ex-
plantations on the terrace in front of the
statue of the President. From the general
bearing of the visitor, should have taken
him for son OF an original New England
Abolitionist. When l left off speaking he
remained and seemed reluctant to take his
eyes from the statue. After several min.
utes spent in silent meditation he aston.
ished me by saying substantially: 81 was
soldier in the Confederate army, and
spent four years doing my utmost to defeat
all that Abraham Lincoln was trying to &C.
complish. He succeeded, and / have no
regrets on that account" The visitor then
assumed tragic attitude, and raising his
right hand toward the statue, said with de.
liberation and emphasis He was an in.
finitely greater man than George Washing
ton ever was" With his eyes still fixed
on the statue, and as though his whole
soul was in his words, he continued /:
Washington had no difficulty in deter.
mining who we're bis friends and who were
not. His enemies were principally on the
water, on the other side of it, or officers
and soldiers sent here to enforce the man
dates of a tyrant. His friends were his
neighbors, who, in addition to their strug.
giles for existence in new country, were
oppressed by taxation without representa-
ton. The line was clearly drawn from
the beginning. With Lincoln it was diff
ferent. His enemies were in every depart
ment of the Government. They filled the
civil offices, they commanded his skeleton
of an army, they trod the decks OF his
ships, such as they were. Where they
could with impunity be open, they were
bold and outspoken Where it was policy
they were willy, complaisant and cautious
1t required two years, or half his first term,
to learn who were friends and who were
enemies, but he was equal to the emer.
gency. And through it all little child
could approach him with perfect conf.
dence, but the most willy statesman could
not swerve him hairs breadth from what
he believed to be right !"
That is what l call eulogy, and if the
author of it was not a thoroughly recon.
structed rebel | never expect to see one.
