BV J. F. B.
In the quiet vernal dale,
I. the pacific gale,
Grows the pretty lily pale,
Like a thing of ruth ;
Tho’ not bright ts roses fire.
Gentle lily does aspire,
To lift its pale-white check higher,
In its palled youth.
Tho' not fragrant like the rest,
Beauty‘son its snowy crest,
Solomon in his brightest
Excelled it never.
in prayer —the lily soft,
Rears its nalle ! head aloft,
In adoring lik" m m oft
Praising with fervor.
Os the V&li-v, lily’s queen.
Round her glows romantic scene,
And imposing in the green
Lily plays he” part.
Sits she in the valley hall,
’Tts the richest capital,—
Surpassing Oriental
Splendors wrought by art.
Spring the saffron may unfold,
Tne acanthus’ hue of gold,*
But the zephyr that blew told,
Os lily’s beauty.
When the crystal dews appear,
Lily hears Aurora’s tear.
Shed while lighting nature here,
’Tis its lone duly.
When ’he Spring does beauty brood,
When green mantles clothe the wood,
Lily on its rosciil food,
Lives in flow’ry dale.
If you are of nature fond,
When you view the glassy pond,
View with pleasure lily’s blond.
Glowing in the vale.
Tilling Skeerls.
A “poor unfortunate” out W r est, who lias
no doubt been die victim of some of these
horrid institutions, thus rids himself of his pent
up feelings.
Oh ! iiovv these girls, when walking out.
Upon the crowded street,
Do all they 'an in ••luting skeerts,”
To show their pretty —feet.
But. little do they think that men
Look at these ‘•mammoth tents,”
Anil think that while they show tneir heels
They show as little sense.
There was a time when girls did dress.
But now they only hah—
And, really, to look at some,
Would make a monkey laugh.
They’re “choked to death” around the waist,
With heels arid shoulders hare—
And yet, wrapped op in all their goods,
There’s tittle woman there.
They dare not eat “a good, square meal,”
Or walk a mile, right quick;
Or darn a sock, or sew a shirt,
Unless it makes them sick.
Young man, if you would choose a wife,
We’ll tell you, once for ai!
Don’t take her in a “tilting skirt,”
Or with a “ water-fall.”
These “hot-house i lants” will wither soon,
They’re pretty things to see—
But if you’d lead a happy life,
You’d better let them he.
It would not do for that, young man to come
around these parts preaching thus.

Tlie Dislrancliised.
A jrentlnman of this city has shown us
a letter to himself Iront a radical United
States Senator —one who voted for the
Sherman bill and supplement —and we
ropy from ii his enumeration of the
classes who are intended to be disfran
oliis ed and disqualified for holding
office. There is no difficulty at all, for
those who may take tho trouble to read
care'uliy the Constitutional Amend
ment and the acts of Congress, in as
certaining the classes thus prescribed;
but some do not wish to take the
trouble, and perhaps all will be inter*
ested in a statement of them bv a
radical Congressman, He writes:
The third section of the fourteenth
article of the Constitutional Amend
ment provides that “No person shali
be a Senator or Representative in
Congress, or electors ol President and
Vice President, or hold any office,
civil or military, under the United
Slates, or under any Slate, wito, having
previously taken an oath as a member
of Congress, or as an officer ol the
United States, or as a member of any
State Legislature, or as an executive or
judicial officer of any States, to support
the Constitution of the United States,
shall have engaged in insuirectum or
rebellion against the same, or given aid
or comfort to the enemies thereof. But
Congress may, by a vole of two-thirds
of each house, remove such disability.”
You will here see that the classes
excluded from holding office under this
Constitutional Amendment, either un
der the United Stales or any State,
are
First, members of Congress ;
Second, any United States officer ;
Third, any member of a State Leg
islature ;
Fourth, any executive or judicial
officer of a State ;
,‘YVlio, having previously taken an
oath to support the Constitution of the
United States, shall have engaged in
insurrection or rebellion against the
same, or given aid or cortifort to the
enemies thereof.”
No class is included that is not
specified. Lawyers are not included
in tins section, although they may
have taken such oath and afterwards
engaged in rebellion.
By section five of “An net to provide
for the more efficient government of
the rebel States,” ii is provided that
the Convention shall he elected by
‘•the male citizens ot the Slate, twenty
one years old and upwards, of what
ever race, color, o- previous condition,
who have been resident in said State
for one year previous to the day of
such election, except such as may he
disfranchised for participation in the
rebellion or far felony at common
law.”
By the oath prescribed in the Sup
plementary Act the voter must swear—
First, that he has not been disf'ran
chised lor participation in any rebellion
or civil war against the United States;
Second, nor lor felony against the
laws'of any State or of the United
S-.afes ;
Third, that he lias never been a
member of any state Legislrture ;
Fourth, that he has never held any
executive or judicial office in any State
a ini after wards engaged in insurrection
or rebellion against the united States,
or given aid or comfort to tne enemies
thereof.
Then lie repeats (he classes enumer
ated in the Constitutional Amendment
already quoted.
Thus, in addition to those disfran
chised bv the fourteenth article oflhe
Constitutional Aruendment —
All members .('State Legislatures;
All executive and judicial officers

In some Slates, member® of the Leg
islature and State officers, executive
and judicial, were not required* to
swear to support the Constitution oi

provides tor that. case. Such is the
case in the State o; Virginia.
