PASSION FOR MUSIC.

There is touching tale of mu-
stefan on the verge of death, who
rose from his bed to finish tune
which hayward boy,who ran away,
had left unfinished. The musician
finished it, and instantly died.
Benda, the celebrated German
composer was exceedingly absent
minded. His wife had just expired
in his arms, and he was in an agony
of grief. Suddenly, as if struck by
an inspiration, he rushed to the piano
and drew from it q series of most
mournful modulations but soon, in
spite of himself, was carried away by
his Imagination in the realms of fan
cy, completely forgetting the subject
of his inspiration. His servant came
to ask him if he would send the GUS
tomary lettres de fair part; "Asls

Burial Alive.

SANTA BARBARA, Call, Aug. t.
Alexander McIver Tyndall propofes
to undertake a test which, he says,
has never before been attempted in
this country. This is, to be buried
alive for 10 days, at the expiration
of which period he promises to rise,
living and breathing from the grave.
He is a mindreader.
Tyndall's proposal is to be placed
in Theoretically sealed casket, being
first covered with clarified butter,
called by East Indians "gee" sealing
all the pores of the body, eyes mouth
ears and nostrils. The casket is then
to be placed six feet under ground,
on the Arlington hotel lawn. The
Arlington hotel proprletors have ac-
copied the proposition.

TO A JEALOUS FAIR ONE.

So you think, darling gill, that the heart
which adored thee
Could be led by the smiles of another
away,
Or the voice which so often for love hath
emplored thee,
And constancy promised, its vows could
betray;
That the lips which have tasted the nectar
of thine, love,
The heayen-born pleasure could ever
forget,
Or the eyes which have gazed on thy beau
ty divine, love,
Be fixed on another, unless with regret:
All, no From the pole star the needle
may wander,
The bigot his dearest religion abJure,
The miser his long boarded treasure may
squander,
Ambition the wording no longer allure,
The mother-bird leave all her nestlings to
perish,
The wronged one forget his revenge to
pursue
All these may be false to the things that
they cherish,
But my heart to my darling must ever
prove true
