Often thus he sat so lonely, Stirring coffee with his knife; Saying with a sigh, “If only— If I only had a wife!” Many hours he sits thus dreaming. Dreaming of what might have l>ocn, ’Till the setting sun now gleaming Through his cottage door is seen.

An Interesting Group. The planets A enus, Jupiter and Sat urn now form an interesting group in tlie south western sky soo-’ after sunset, Although the small st of the three, Venus is clearly far more brilliant than 1 tlie giant Jupiter, which she is rapidly approaching, while the contrast with lh« dull-lined Saturn tlie upper left hard member of the gron[i--!s still more tnaife ed. Jupiter is also slowtv drawing near to tlie ringed planet, which it will over¬ take on April 21st, but their conjunc¬ tion will not he visible since both plan¬ ets will then he lost in the greater glory of the sun. The conjunction of Jupiter and Saturn takes place once in about twenty years, but it is more than a cen¬ tury since Venus formed with them such an attractive group as is now visible. Venus was in conjunction with Jupiter at midnight on the 2lst ult.; and a few evenings ago bnturn passed north of both but much nearer the former than the latter. A few evenings sined her near approach to the moon mad.' a bril¬ liant sight. In the telescope Venus now lias tlie appearance of a half moon. ' During the next two months her illumi¬ nated disc will dimmish day by day till the planet appears like a thin silvery crescent of dazzling whiteness and finally lades away at her inferior conjunction w ith the sun on May 3d. As a telescope object Venus will there grow in attrac during March and April. Iu fact, the less is Been of her the more beautiful slm hecoines.
