City Printer —Official Paper I.UWKBT CITY CIRCULATION. TTKST'AY MORNING IHw. n, IBM The Bhiiv'.k or Siohs.—Let us take, tor example, that pathetic swindle, the Bridge of Sighs. There are few, I fancy who Hill hear it mentioned without as sociating its mystery and secrecy with the taciturn justice ot the Three, or some other machinery af the Sereoest Repub lic's policy. Whei| l entered it the fjrat time I was at the pains to call about me the sad company of those who had passed its corridors from imprisonment to death —and, I doubt not, many excellent tour ists bars done the same. I was some what ashamed to learu afterward that I had, on this occasion, beeu in very low society, and that the melancholy com pany which I then conjured op was com posed entirely of honest rogues who might, indeed, have given as graceful and ingenious excuses tor being there as the galley slaves rescued by Don Qaix. ote—who might even Itave been very picturesque—but who were not at all the material with which a well-regulated imagination would deal. The Bridge of Sighs was not built till the end of the sixteenth century, and no romantic epi. sode of political imprisonment and pun ishment (except that of Antonio Fos carini) occurs in Venetian history later thau that period. But tbe Bridge ot Sighs could hove nowise a savour of sentiment from any such episode, being, as it was, merely a means of Communi cation between the criminal courts sitting in the Ducal Palace, and the Criminal Prison across the little canal. House breakers, cutpurse knaves, and murder, ers do not commonly impart a poetic in terest to places which have known them ; and yet these are the only sort of suffer ers on whose Bridge of Sighs the whole sentimental world has looked with path etic sensation ever since Byron drew at tention to it. The name of the bridge was given by the people from that opn letice of compassion which enables the Italians to pity even rascality in difficult ties.— Venetian Life, by Wm. D. Ho we Us. Procrastination.—A lady who found it difficult to awake as early as she wished in the morning, purchased an alarm watch. These watches are so contrived as to strike with a very loud whirring noise, at any hour the owner pleases to set them. The lady placed her watch at the head of the bed, aud found herself effectually roused by the long, rattling sound. She immediately obeyed the summons, and felt better all day for her earlvrising. This continued for several weeks. The alarm watch faithfully performed its office, and was distinctly heard, so long as it was obeyed' But, after a time, the lady grew tired of early rising; and, when she was waken, ed by the noisy monitor, she merely turned herself and slept again. In a few days the watch ceased to rouse her from slumber. It spoke just as loudly as ever, but she did not hear it, because she had acquired the habit of disobeying it. Finding that she might just as well be without au alarm watch she formed tie wise resolution, that if she ever heard the sound again, she would jump up instantly, aud that she never more would allow herself to disobey the friend ly warning. Just so it is with conscience. Il we obey its dictates, even to the most trifling particulars, we always hear its voice, clear and strong, but, if we allow ourselves to do what we have some fears may not be quite right, we shall grow more and more sleepy, until the voice of conscience has no longer any power to awaken us. A Touching Incident.—At a second class hotel in Frankfort, Ky., a few days since, a little girl entered the bar room, and in a pitiful tone told the barkeeper that her mother sent her there to get eight cents. “ Eight cents!” said the bar keeper. “ Yes sir.” } ' ,t “ What does your mother want of eight cents? I don't owe her any thing.” , *, “ Well,” said the child, “ father spends all his money here for rum, and we have no bread to-day. Mother wants to buy a loaf of bread.” A loafer suggested to the barkeeper to kick her out. “ No,” said the bar keeper. I’ll give her mother the money, and if her father come back here again, I’ll kick him out.” Humanity owes that bar keeper a vote of thanks. Life.—What is it?.For durability it is like the morning cloud, the withering rose, the unsubstantial shadow. It is like the grass "which to day is, and to morrow is cast into the oven.” How frail and uncertain is human life.l Its feeble light is quenched at all seasons and all hours of the day. But frail and fleeting as it is, its results no mortal can estimate. It is the forming period of the soul’s existence. We are here being educated for eternity, forming characters which will be as imperisha ble as the throne of God itself. Reform.—He who reforms himself Has done more towards reforming the public than a crowd of noisy, impotent patriots. —Business neglected 'is business lost. THE DAILY PRESS. VOL. 11.
