Tlio Wain or Hi Tragedy.

parricidal tragedy committed in Now York by

moment in which to present to tho appreciative
reader a pooticsl gem written by tho maternal
grandfalhor cf tbo yonng unfortunate, Colonel
Hardin, and transmitted by letter to his wife,
from Washington Oily, white ho was a member
of Congress. Tbe linos in question were writ
ten a short timo before Colonel Hardin entered

leading his regiment at Iho batUo of Buena

plied lo Chancellor Walworth to settle Iho con
test. Thoso interviews ended in lha marriage
of tho Chancellor snd widow; and, in a few
yearn. Miss Nellio Hardin (tho widow's daugh
ter) linked lior destiny with Mauafiold Tracy
Walworth, and they became ono family. How
lieantifnlly things progressed in Lhe home circle
of tbo last named may be inferred from the
oonclndiDg aot in the lifo drama of two who
"lovod neither wisely n»r toowell.” But I will
Dot comment fuilhcr, bat procoed to give tho
lines which no donbt will ho read with ronowed

and to-day steeps "where birds may sing snd

tragedy which baa just b jen ouasted, by one in
whoso lifo-veins flows his own blood :
Bury mo not when I am dead
Aal-iet lhe city e Rlaro—
Whore thoughtless, careless mortals tread,
And wealth snd misery are wed;
Ohl bury me not thore.
Bury me not, when Tm no more,
High on tho mountain bare—
Whore naught hut oaglos o'er it soar—
And storms and tempests round it roar;
Ob! bury mo not there.
Bruy me not, when I'm at rest.
Where martial pennons glare—
For empty ehow and gorgeous creft
Cad never xootho an icy breast;
'Alien bury me not there.
Bury me not, when I shall sleep,
Dy ocean's rocky lair.
Where winds and waves their vigils keep.
And ever moans the metises deep;
Oh! bury mo not there.
Dtuy ms not, when I am gone.
In boundless prairie*, where
The hnried dead are left alone.
Unmarked save by a cold grave stone;
Oh! bury me not there.
Bot bury ma, when I shall die,
’Midrt woods and flowers rare:
When o'or my grave the winds may aigh.
The bird* may eiog and fnenda aro uigtr.
Oh 1 bury me then there.

“Yes, air, a company, I believe. I don’t

“Two were killed dead, one has died since,
and there is another that they think will die.”
“How many negroea were killed ?”
“Sevonty or eighty.”
“The nnmber is rather ont of proportion," I
observed.
“ Oh, yea, of oonrse, and it will always be that
way in n fight between white men and niggers.
Tho niggers can’t fight There have been three
rows between the wbitea and negroes in this

From What I can learn cf the relations of tho

An Important Letter!
From a prominent gentleman and resident of Cin
cinnati, O., for the past forty yeara well known to
the book publishers throughout the United States i
New York, October 11, 1870.
Dr . Badway i Dear Sir—I am induced by a sense
of duty to tne suffering to make a brief statement
of the working of your medicine on myself. For
several years I had been affected with some trouble
in the bladder and urinary organs, which some
twelve months ago culminated in a most terribly
afflicting disease, which the physicians all eaid was
a spasmodic stricture in the uretha, as also infill tu
rn at ion of the kidneys and bladder, and gave it as
their opinion that ray age—73 years—would pre
vent my ever getting radically cured. I bad tried
a number of pbyaiciaDs, and had taken a large
qnanity of medicine, both alopathio and hemooc-
uthic, but had got no roller. I had road of aeton-
shing cures having been made by your remedies;
and some four months sgo read a notice in tbe
Philadelphia Saturday Evening Post of a cure hav-
ing been effected on a porson who had long been
suffering aa I had been. I went right eff and got
some of each—yonr SarsaparUlian Beeolvent,
Beady Belief, and Regulating Pills—and com
menced taking (hem. Iu three days 1 was greatly
relieved, and now f6el as well as ever.
