She Showed Him stars.
From the Yossar MisceNann

For every shooting star. he claimed kiss,
She. seeming coy, at first demnrred to this;
But he. persisting, W )uld not be denied
When he, at length, a flying meteor spied.
And so. as evening grew apace. their eyes
Oft scann'd the glittering aspect of the skies:
And when darling star .ught either's sight
sound of kissing broke upon the night
And 50 it came TO pass anon that she
Look d for a shooting-star as much as he.
Nay, if by chance escaped his view,
She called his wandering fancy to it, too.
When intervals seemed long between each hug,
She called him on passing lightning-bug;
Aud, ever taxing her ingenious mind,
Her ready wit enabled her TO find
More ShOOting-Stars in t1ree short fleeing hours
Than would compose whole meteoric bowers
But when she did her last pretext exhaust,
And was about to yield her cause as lost,
she saw a Swltchman's lantern circling swing
And got the youth down to a steady thing.

his parents by being expelled from school

Who Got the Worst of It2

There is story told of well-known South
Brooklyn contractor. says the Brooklyn Citizen,
who has in his EN- ploy an old and faith ul hand
named Flynn. Flynn is sober, industrious, and
for the past ten years has never missed a DAVIS
work But q few mornings ago h failed to re-
port at the yard, and his employer, who needed
ms services, determined to ascertain the cause
of his absence. The contractor had vague
idea that he tenanted one of the shanties which
nues, near Sixth street. Accordingly he set
out, and after prolonged and vain search for
Flynn. accosted a Swapping Irish woman who
stood at the door of particularly ramshackle
hut. The woman showed signs OF rough hand.

between him and Senator Blackburn. He
denies that bis ear was pulled by Black

Gen. Simon Cameron, who was stricken
with paralysis the o-her day, is in his 9lst
year. He was born in Pen sylvania, and
in early life he was a democratic editor.
Pennsylvania, however, became strongly
republican, and so did the general. He has
served four terms in the United
States Senate, was Secretary of
War under Lincoln, and represented
this country as minister to Russia.
Up to the time of his retirement
from politics, he held firm grip upon re-
publican politics in Pennsylvania, and he
seems to have transferred it to his son.
Senator Don Cameron, VINO is now in
Europe.
