FAR APART.
Beneath the qnatnt old bridge you hear
The waves make music as they jxass;
And, winding to the elm tree near,
You sec the pathway through the grass, *
Where we were wont to walk, alas !
The river wanders as of old.
Beneath the shaded willow treee:
The sunlit waters gleam like gold,
And ripple to the gentle breeze;
But I am far lroin thee and these I
The sky .bends over broad and blue;
And, in the soft and mellow light,
You tread the lane our footsteps knew
In former days, when days were bright;
Do these days bring such sweet delight ?
And still that lane with grass is green:
With fragrant flowers the banks are fair;
In golden gloss and stiver sheen.
The bees still haunt the balmy air,
Bat yon will fall to find me there.
Again, pen hance, 1 may not see
The rustling rows of willow trees
lent a leafy canopy
When we strolled underneath at case),
For I am far from thee and these !
Our joys forsake ns. Soon 4 ‘does Spring
Pass by and for the Summer call;
Soon do the birds lose heart losing.
When faded leaves in Autumn fall;
And Winter is thelend of all!
Marrying in Fun.— The voung l;i
--tlics and gentlemen of Ulster county
put themselves in a situation one
evening last week that they now feel
sorry fur. A hall was given at which
the was a large attendance of the
young people of the neighborhood.
During the festivities somebody jjro
posed they should have a marriage,
so the young couples to carry out the
sport stepped forward before a digni
fied gentleman, who speedily pro
nounced them man and wife. Since
it has been discovered this gentleman
is a justice of the peace, the couples
are very much disturbed in their
■ miuds. One young lady is reported
to have spent the whole of the next
day in Crying, her grief being intensi
fied by the fact that she is engaged
to another gentleman. —New York
Times,
' The Senatorial changes on the
4th of March next will add ten mem
bers to the Democratic side. Count
ing'Christiancy and Paddock as Re
publicans, conceding It' publican Sen
ators from Minnesota, Wisconsin and
Florida, and presuming that Pinch
back will be seated, the Republican
majority in the Senate of the Forty
fourth Congress will be sixteen. But
if a Democrat obtains admission from
Louisiana, if Florida does its duty,
and the “Moderate” Republicans from
Michigan and Nebraska can be rank
ed with the opposition, the Republic
an majority will bo eight. This can
be completely extinguished upon ul
tra party issues by the independence
of Messrs, Alcorn, Sharon, Ferry, of
Connecticut, and Robertson, of
South Carolina. But the State elec
tions of this and next year will effect
umry uu away wnn a itepuUJican ma
jority in the Senate after 1877.A T

Feminine Habits at the Capital.—
A lady in position told me that she
had to issue strict orders to her ser
vants to allow no ladies to enter her
doors on New Year’s Day, for she
"said: “Last year my table was laid in
the dining room, on the first floor,
my parlors being above. Ladies
dressed in elegaut silks, with baskets
hidden under their wraps or shawls,
would remain in the refreshment
oom and actually fill their baskets
with articles of food from my table,
and then depart with the gentlemen
whom they accompanied without, so
much as saying ‘howd’ye’ to me. Yon
may think this a gross exaggeration,
but I assure you that my servants
saw them, in more than one instance,
in the very act of taking things with
the intention of carrying them home.”
This story seems too fearful to be
lieve, but when one thinks of the vast
army of adventuresses and adventur
ers which crowd the city during the
winter season, it is not impossible
to believe worse stories than the one
related.
A correspondent of tLe Paris
Figaro thus describes some remarka
ble American customs which will be
new to most of us. He says: “In
winter -evenings, when there comes
up one of those dense fogs which are
so common over in America, it is no
unusual thing to meet in the streets a
man carrying a lantern, which re
sembles one of our magic lanterns.
He selects a frequented spot, and
when the crowd becomes dense
mound him he turns his lantern to
ward the lowering clouds. At that
mstant, as if by miricle, the bystau
trs behold in the miitet of the heav
ens, which do duty for a curtain, a
gigantic advertisement recommending
;ome dry goods establishment or
.lothing store. The second example,
s more simple, but not less ingeni
ous. One often passes on the street
i citizen walking rapidly, and tread
ng with all his weight on the side
walks. You draw near, and en the
asphalt, in the trace left by the foot
prints of the personage in question,
you read an advertisement printed in
clear and elegant characters. The
man was a walking advertisement;
and he wore shoes with nailed letters
on their soles.”
