Because one loves yon, Helen Grey, Is that a reason you should pout, ■ . And like a March wind veer about. And frown, and say your shrewish say ? Don't strain the chord until it snaps, Don’t split the sound heart with your wedge, Don’t cut your fingers with the edge Of your keen wit; you may, perhaps. Because your’e handsome, Helen Grey, Is that a reason to be proud? Your eyes are bold, your laugh is loud, Your steps go mincing on their way; But so you miss that modest charm Which is the surest charm of all; Take heed you may yet trip and fall. And no mau care to stretch his arm. Stoop from tout cold height, Helen Grey, Dome down, and take a lowlier place, Come down, to fill it now with grace; ( omi! down you must per force some day, For years cannot he kept at bay, And fading years will make you old: Then in your turn will men aeem cold. When you youraelf are nipped and gray. A Good Epitaph.—A surgeon in General Sherman's army copied the following inscription from a tomb stone in a grave-yard at Cheraw, 8. C., while on the march through that State : My name—my country— What are they to thee ? What, whether high or low, My pedigree? Perhaps I far surpassed All other men ; Perhaps I fell below them all! What then ? Suffice it, stranger, Thou seest a tomb! Thou know’st its use ; It hides—no matter whom. IN GENERAL, -Only a German could have patience to coant the hairs of the human head, which have been commonly supposed to be “without number.” The results are sufficiently curious to reward the investigation.

The resemblance is striking, and, at the distance of a few feet, it is impossible to distinguish the picture from a fine engraving. —The Lafayette Journal learns of a Teutonic indi vidual in that city who threw himself outside of eigh- ty-seveu glasses of beer and two glasses of whiskey in i me day. After performing the feat lie dryly remarked that tie "could have taken a great deal more, but did not feel particularly thirsty that day." —The defence of Dr. Newland, on trial in Indiana tnr killing Evans, the seducer of his daughter, will be made on the grounds that the Doctor did the deed while under mental alienation consequent apon the intense excitement caused by the confession that nigh t, from his daughter’s lips, of the guilt of Evans and.of her own ruin.
