MADAM HICKORY.

Tit theme for song the sylvan maid
Who, if she knew not fauns or satyrs. i
Had coniured oft in messy shade
Visions of savage palcface hatersi
trow she dined on pork and maize
In cabin single roonned and sooted,
Quite innocent of frills and stays,
Warm hearted and barefooted.
Her beauty surely brought her note.
Perchance the franlSness of her manners
Gossip Ger racy tales did gloat
To prove her scruples not Diana's,
But when the hero husband came
He crushed the scandal pests like vermin.
Al terror hedged the hero's name,
And she was white as ermine.
Thenceforth, matron fair and fat,
She shared the doting hero's station.
That's with Alexander sat
And heard the plaudits of a nation.
What though small souls, with furtive leer,
Revived old runners of dishonors
The hero held her yet more dear
And stainless as Madonna.
Weary of fortunes smile and frown,
Shv died without the White House portal,
But never wife wore richer crown,
A hero's troth and love immortal.
That love had made queen of her
Whom naughty danes turned prudish
backs on,
And history smiles, but has no slur
For Mistress Andrew jackson.

LINCOLN and JEFF Davis

Malcolm Townsend has pointed out
condolences Of events in the lives of
Lincoln and Jeff Davis. Both were born
in Kentucky-Linceln in 1909, Davis
in 1903. Both removed from their ma
tive state in childhood, Davis going to
the southwest. Lincoln to the north
west. In the Black Hawk war Davis
was a second lieutenant of regulars,
Lincoln a captain of volunteers. Both
began their political career at the same
period, 1874, Davis being presidential
elector for Henry Clay. Both were
elected to congress at about the same
time, Davis in 1916, Lincoln in 1916.
Lastly, in the same year and almost the
same day, they were called on to pre-
side over the destinies of their respective
governments, Davis as president of the
Confederate states, Feb. s, 1861, and
Lincoln as president of the United
States, March 4, 1861.-New York
