DUST.
A QUAINT COMPOSITION.
Dust we were, and duel to be,
Dust upon us, dual about us,
Dust on everything we see,
Dust within us, dust withont us:
Saith the preacher, “ Dust to dust!”
Let them tuiugle, for they must.
Du t we raise upon the road,
Dust we breath in dancing hall;
Dust infests our home abode,
Dust, a pall, is over all;
* Tis the housewife’s daily bread,
Dust, the emblem of the dead!
When the sky above is fair,
And the sun upon us streams.
Floats the dust throughout the air,
Gleaming in its fallen beams;
Every mote is like a mau; 1
Dancing gaily while he can.

Mr. and Mrs. Hall have resided in
Albany for some months.' Then-
home was formerly in Michigan
Mr. Hall is a gentleman of full hab
its, and a strong passion for duck
shooting—this accounts for his hav
ing bagged Mrs. Hall. Mrs. Hall is
a bright eyed, middle-aged wofrtan
who does not tike to be “left alone.”
She is subjected to fits of nervous
ness, and runs away with the idea
that the more solitude you have in a
house, the sooner it becomes haunt
ed. Mrs. Hall is a very agreeable
woman, has a magnificent eye, and
talks “fluidly,”.as Mrs. Harris would
say. * So much foF the general ap
pearance of Mr. and Mrs. Hull. On
Monday last, Mr. Hall imprinted a
kiss on Mrs. Hall’s cheek, and told
her he was going a shooting ou
Long Island, and would be absent
from home for a week. Mrs. Hall
burst into tears, and said such an
absence would be the death of her.
Mr. Hall said, “Pshaw!” and con
cluded the speech by promising to
bring her a hundred dollar dress,
from Stewart’s. Mrs. Hall was mol
lified. In consequence of this. Mr.
Hall repaired to the office, to “ write
up the cash book,” and give the
clerks such advice as would keep
their morals sweet for “ the coming
week.”
During Mr. HaWs absence “at
the office,” Mrs. Hall buside herself
in filling his satchel with a few ne
cessaries for the tramp. In the col
lection were two shirts, four dickeys,
six handkerchiefs, two pair of socks,
a bottle of cough medicine, a pair of
razors, one lather brush, and a brok
en cup. Mr. Hall returned to the
house, fixed himself up, and about
1-2 o’clock started for the steam
boat. Mr. Hall intended, when he
left home, to stay a \fleek.
“But .how
bedroom*?”
“Camejin offithe back shetj, I saw
him there just before tea. He will
go away in amoment.” 1
_ “Go away? not by a’long shot.
Get me my revolver and I’ll blow
his brains out.”
“Not for the world, my love. Don’t
bloody upthe carpet. Raise the win
dow and call Carlo away and he’ll
go out himself.”
“I don’t believe in any such ar
rangement. Mrs, Hall. I’ve been
after that cat about a month, and 1
am no w|de ter mined to blow his brains
out, blood or no blood. 1 -! ’
Mrs. Hall tried to. dissuade him,
but it was without effect. Mr. Hall
had resolved to kill that eat, and he
would do it. As Mrs. Hall would
not “touch a pistol for the world,”
Mr. Hall went to the bureau, and
got it for himself. Having.examiu-
ed the load, and adjusted the caps,
he advanced towards the bed-room,
preceded by Carlo, who poked his
nose under the bedstead, and gave a
yelp that waked the baby that the
nurse had in the next room. Mr.
Hall dropped on his knees. Mr. Hall
then leaned over on his hand, and
by this means enabled himself to
see as far under the bed as Carlo
did. Mr. Hall gave one look, and
then asked Mrs. Hall “if that yaller
cat wore a blue coat with brass but
tons?” Mrs. Hall gave a screech,
and “lost her reason.’’ Mr. Hall told
“the yaller cat’’ to come out. The
yaller cat obeyed the order, aud
when ha did so, he was discovered
to be “an old mouser,” who keeps
a lumber yard in the vicinity of the
Little Basin. The yaller cat fell up
on his kuees )V and promised to ex
plain matters in the morning.
Mr. Hall said matters explained
themselves. In proof of which he
ordered the yaller cat to “take Mrs,
Hall by the arm, and leave the
house.’’ The yaller cat did as he
was ordered. This finished up the
business of Tuesday night. On
Wednesday morning Mr. Hall ap
peared at the police to enter a com
plaint against the valler cat v for
“crim. con.” Justice Parsphs inform-
edhim that crim. con. was not a
crime in this State, and that if he
wanted satisfaction he must sue. for
the same in some other Court. Mr.
Hall handed the case over to L. D
Holstein. What will become of it
will be knownlat the next Court. We
should not wonder if “the yaller cat,
with brass buttons.” had to come
out about ten thousand dollars

The man has continued to reside in

and paiticularly careful to jemove from
his countenance all traces of time’s foot
prints, has kept up a very youthful ap

in affluent circumstances, of good ad

niceties that combine to stamp the gen

At length the old man was required to

The next night passed away in the same
manner, ' without sleep. She was get

might have been a settled aversion to
the sex, or it might be attributed to his
early lessons—yfft it was a fact, he did
not marry.
But, notAo be too prolix, we’ll cut off
some of the little unimportant items, and
proceed to the story;.
During last Juue, a Miss J——— ar-

lady noticing a neighbor of hers
was not in her seat at church on the
Sabbath, called on her return home
to enquii. what should detain so
punctual au attendant.—On enter
ing the house she found the family
busy at work. She was surprised (
when er friend addressed her :
‘ Why la! where have you
to-day, dressed up in your Sa
day clothes ?
‘ To meeting!’
* Why, what day is i

rived here from the east, on a visit to. a
relative, who had been a resident of the
Queen City but a few-months. The se
cond week of her western sojourn threw
her in company with the grass widower
of twenty years standing who showed by
his attention that he was more than
usually impressed by the charms of the
fair stranger. Every evening found him
at her side, and she was thought not to
be entirely insensible to his charms of
person and mind. A month glided away
—a month of courtship, which was care
fully noted and meaningly winked at by
her relative. At length her hand was
asked in marriage, and the matter refer*
red'to her connection.
He seemed to favor the projectand
appointed an interview for the trio the
same evening. They met in tiie parlor,
when a more formal solicitation for her
hand was made, and while the ardent
suitor was waiting with breathless anxie'
ty for the answer that was to seal his fate
the young lady was led forward and pre
sented to her own father !—the lover.
It is needless, to adJ that both were
astounded! However, it resulted in
good. .The father has settled a liberal
fortune upon the daughter, and ere this
both are in Paris, preparatory to making
the tour of Europe. This romance of
every day life is but another instance of
truth often times being stranger than fic
tion.
Another Filibustering Expedi
tion.—The President has informed the
District Attorney of New York, that
another filibustering expedition is on
foot for the purpose of invading Nicar
agua. Ho urges prompt measures for
its suppression.
The Raw Material.—An eminent
connoisseur was offered, during desert,
some grapes.
* Thank you.’ he said, * it is never
my custom to take my wine in pills.’
“Though lost to sight, to memory
dear,’ as the maiden said to her lover
when his face was buried in beard aad
whiskers.
Five honored thousand.—It is sta
ted that Mrs. John Tyler, lady of the Ex-
President, whose maiden name was Gar-
diner, is heir to a just discovered for
tune in England, by which she will re
alize §500,000.
Mrs. Julia Dean Ilayne 1ms just ap
peared in New York, in “The Bank;
rupl,” a piece written for her.
Wife Wanted.—The following ad;
vertisement under the head of a Wife
Wanted, is in a Batesville, Arkansas,
paper:
‘ Any gal what’s got a bed* a
pot, and a skillet, knows how to cut oq£
britches, cun make a hunting shirt, and
knows how to take care of children, can
have my services until death parts kotlt
of us.’
’ A wag in Detroit has been taking
liberties with the reputation of the
Pontiac railroad. He was asked wheth
er he knew of an accident on that road,
and replied : “Never but once, a mid
dle aged gentleman left Pontiac for De
troit, and died of old age at Birming
ham—half way!”
Chemical Oddity.—While aq igno
rant lecturer was describing the nature
of gas. a blue-stocking lady inquired of
gentleman near her, what was the dif;
ference between oxygen anti hydrogen.
Very iittle madam said he j * by
oxygin we mean pure gin ^ and tiydiq\

“ They are masters who instruct us
