He meets the smile of young and old, he wins tin pfaise of all. He is feasted at the banquet and distinguished at the ball; When town grows dull and sultry, he may fly t< green retreats, A welcome visitor at twenty country .seats; He need not seek society, for do what’er he can, Invitations and attentions will pursue the single man. * n ifesfgun wu h CM ißtti Fathers and brothers anxiously attempt his taste t<- suit; O’er meadows without number’tis hi* privilege to shoot; Political opponents to his principles concede; He quaffs the finest eau de vie, ho rides the fleetest steed; And never yet .were families, since the world* first began, United, blest, and fond as tho*e who court the sin gle man.

But years steal on, and he begin with careful folks to class, And shuns the pic-nic scramble, and dinner on the grass, And dreads the cold, spare chamber, and the crow ded hall of mirth; And loves the spreading easy-ehaii, and blaziug quiet hearth, And votes warm rooms, and early hours the wisest safest plan; But home affords few comforts to the ailing single man. He locks a true and kindred heart his joy and grief to share, He lacks the winning tenderness of woman's gentle care; No children gather round him, a beloved and lov ing train, • 'Eager to win their father’s smile, to Boothe their father;* pain; He rates his poor re'ations as a mercenary clan, — Attachments come not ready-made to cheer the sin gle man.

Horrible Outrage lit Netvfort Corioty* * From information received frmn a private source, we are enabled to give the purtloO* lain of a most horrible crime recently committed in N.eyvton county, On last Saturday night about ten o!clock vMr-s.- t (we suppress the name), a widow lady, who with thVee children, resided near Cqu* yers, iu Newton county, was sitting in her house entirely alone, as regards grown pet sons, when she Was startled by a lohd rapping at the door. # Sbe immediately went to see'who the late visitor could be but took the peTcau-tion to inquire first the name and errand. A negro man froth ffrfli* out replied that it-was- William Smith, and wished to enter in order to get a light for his pipe. Naturally suspicious the lady refused to admit hind but handed a light through the wiudow. As soon as he Iwfd received it the negro went off and Mrs.— closing the blinds, returned to the fire side. A few minutes afterwards she was fright-- cued by hearing a tremendous rattling’iatet* the window which she bad just shut. Rush* ing to see What was the matter- she waaC accosted by- the same negro who had beett ' there previously, and who told her that if she did hot open the door instantly he would break in and murder her. Terrified she acceded to this demand, and a negro, armed with a double barreled shot l£tm, mitered a and shut, the door behind him. As sooni ait he had made it fast, gun in band, be appro- ** ached Mrs.——and told her.-it alic did not yield to his wishes she would suffer instant death. Too remote from the nearest neigh- \ bor to attract attention by her serpams and having every reason to believe that the monster would carry bis threat into execution, the poor women yielded and tbs negro accomplished his purpose and «and. On jttojafafo following—she revealed the facts of. *Ufe case to her friends, and in a few hours later a A the negro was arrested by the officers while in attendance at church in Conyers. That night he was brought down on the cars to Covington and lodged in jail at the latter place, where he will remain until the asair J can undergo a judicial fevesttgafciei*. 6 • mmm t♦ 1 " ■■■ .iiii Celebrities or thf Inauguration Ball.— The Boston journal’s report of the inaug* rual ball says: ‘ill is agreed by tb#'fa<ffed that Mrs .Governor Morgan’s diamo dt were * the finest wbrn; that Mrs.; John Mot~ riasey wore the most elegant that w Mis.
