The Charm ing Poke Bonnet.

How much admire the bewitching poke bon
net,
Which halfhides the roses that bloom in her
face
Why, Cupid, know, has his throne there up
It,
Concealed in its trimmings of null or of lace.
The style isn't new, for our grandmothers wore
it,
And they were not wanting in beauty or
grace;
Their gnnddaughters love it, the young men
adore it
The charming poke bonnet that hides sweet
face;
The ravishing bonnet, the exquisite bonnet,
Bewildering bonnet that shades a sweet face.
The fair, shapely head is half hidden within it,
And part of the beautiful face disappears-
How often I've kissed the lips glowing warm
in it,
The while the coarse ibres were tickling my
ears.
Away with the hat with feather upon it
Within my affection twill ne er have place
Oh give me the null trimmed, the coarse
straw poke bonnet,
The heart-snaring bonnet that shades a sweet
face,
The beautiful bonnet. the exquisite bonnet.

Kentucky did not Want to Secede.
Louisville Commercial

The people OF Kentucky did not de-
sire to secede, and they showed it
every time they had chance to ex.
press an opinion. They showed it at
the election in the summer of 1860, at
the presidential election in 1860, at
the congressional election in May,
1861, by a majority of over "a 600;
they showed it at the legislative cleo
ton in August, 1861, when the Union
men were put IN an overwhelming
maj 3rity in che legislature; they show
ed 1t decisively by furnishing nearly
80, 900 soldiers to support the Union
cause, and they showed it, finally, and
/ to the disgust of the confederate gen
erals and authorities, when they de
clined to rally to the confederate
standard when Johnston came TO
Bowling Green, and Beckner to Green
River; and again when Bragg brought
his forces wIthin sight of Louisville
and Cincinnati. Senator Blackburn
has made the claim that Kentucky
furnished AZ, 600 soldiers to the con-
federate cause, and Mr.. Shaler, in his
recent history, puts the number at
40, 900. We believe that neither of
them can give an authority to support
his estimate. Twenty-Five thousand,
to our mind, is a liberal figure at
which to put the number of confeder-
ate soldiers furnished by Kentucky,
although up to September, 1861, the
facilities for enlisting in the confeder-
ate service in Kentucky were as great
as for enlisting In the Union service.
although a good part of the state was
in the possession of the confederates
from September, 1861, up to February,
1862, and althou gh in the summer and
tall of 1862 they had every facility for
securing Kentucky recruits.

A Conspicuous Boston Success.

Every family which is visited by The YOUTH s
COMPANION knows that it is source of delight, in
Struction and amusement, not only to the young
but TO people of all ages While this is generally
United States which are glad to welcome THE
YOUTHS COMPANION, il may not be so wide Y
understood that it has now a larger circulation
than any other literary paper liz the world The
quiet and modest yet vigorous way in which it
has been managed would not perhaps give this
impression, but the record proves the fact. It is
creditto Boston that paper .arted and foStered
and pushed here should in its fifty-eighth year
stand at the head of all the literary papers of the
world in circulation.
Brains, good judgment and energy are the Sc
crets of this success. The growth has been steady
and permanent, and the gigantic strides of the
past few years have been in keeping with the
enormous progress of the country THE Com
PANIoN never WAS making greater Roadway and
ought to reach half a million circulation within
three years from date.
OF paper so widely known it is hardly neceS-
sary to speak in detail. The general reader knows
that it is interesting from the first line to the last
Parents know that it is pure and eevatng in tone,
and yet vigorous, entertaining and Instructive to
the healshieSt and most active of boys Authors
know that THE COMPANION will have the best, and
tiSerS know that it is a magnificent medium
through which to reach the people. Everybody
knows that it is conspicuous success.
1t is creditable to Boston that it possesses the
most successful paper OF its kind an the world; it
is creditable to the Intelligence of the youth of
the land that so many thousands of them read
such paper with pleasure and avidity, aud all
feel that any increase in the circulation of THE
YOUTHS COMPANION will be a gooa thing for the
rising generation, and consequently for the cOuH-
try.-BOst0n Daily Globe.

A Pretty incident.
New Orleans Times-Democrat

Yesterday afternoon while the Mex
ican Band was performing one of it's
vOluptuous danzas in the Music Hall.
and a large audience was wrapped in
attention, with a futtering fight a
small sparrow flew across the great
auditorium and perched on the railing
of the gallery above. He nodded and
bobbed his little head to the move
ment of the music as if enjoying it
heartily. Hardly had he entered into
the full enj jyment of the Intoxicating
strains when he was joined by an
other, and then another, and soon
there were some twenty in row, all
sitting on the railing with their heads
perched on one side as attentive listen
ers as there was in the building.
When the last swell of the finale died
away the little fellows, in a cloud of
wings, scattered on all sides.

Henry Ward Beecher tells this at
his own expense: GA regiment of
lumbermen-big, tall fellows, six-feet-
five, from Maine-were passing
through Brooklyn in '62. There were
about 1000 in all, and I marched
them up to Plymouth Church, invited
them IN, aud gave every man of them
a whole seat with a cushion in it.
There they all sat with their KNAPP
sacks on, and [ got on the platform
and began to preach. Ny friends, it's
the only time in my life ever preach
ed whole congregation to sleep"

Mrs. Mary Singerly, the PhiIadel,
phia editors wife, who has just died
was the person instrumental Ia getting
Sunday music into Fairmont Park.
Driving la the park as an invalid one
day, she suggested taat it would be a
great delight to the working classes,
who could only visit the park on Sun
days, if they could have music, and
after a long fight against prejudice
and bigotry, the music was introduc :
ed. She was deservedly one of the
most popular ladies in the City.
