KY ONE OK NEW.VAN’S In slumber, soft and sweet, she lay, A maiden fair as dawn of day; Her rounded arms, with matchless grace, Above her curls did interlace. The happy moonbeams shyly rest Lpon her softly heaving breast., And cunning zephyrs steal in bliss I rotn ruby lips a rapturous kiss. The evening glory, bridal white, From lattice hangs in silvery light; And ’mid its blooms the mock-bird’s trill With love the maiden’s visions thrill. A fountain, In the bright moonlight, With lunar rainbow gilds the night.; And o’er that couch each zephyr blows The mingled heliotrope and rose. Moonbeams, zephyr, bird and (lower Cluster ’round the maiden’s bowel ; Silence lulls each waking sound, And holy quiet reigns around. When, hark ’.—the maiden shrieks in fear— “There's some one here!—there’s someone here!” The father springs to aid ills child— The brother comes with looks all wild ! All o’er the room they quickly ran— “Father, I’m sure it was a man, For, O,” she hid her blushing lace, “I felt his mustache on my face !” Just then—bid romance now adieu — Her little kitten cried “mow, mew!” It crept from out t he pillow rutile, Met boy, maid and man in scuffle, And crown’d its most inglorious fall With one long, hideous caterwaul! than the average summer solstice in ^ .T.

Our line Dress buits ah of Oyster Supper. On Wednesday evening next the la dies of the Presbyterian church will give an oyster supper in one of the up per rooms of the Cole building, and the well-known managerial ability of the ladies who have the enterprise in hand furnishes ample guarantee that the en tertainment will be lacking in none of the elements of substantial enjoyment. About a year ago the ladies bought ten elegant cathedral glass windows for their church, the cost of which was $500. About $000 of this amount re mains yet unpaid, and the object of the supper is to assist in raising a fund for this purpose. As this is the first time that our Presbyterian friends have made an appeal to the of the public we hope the supper next Wednesday night will be liberally pat ronized. The following tempting bill of fare will be offered; Raw oysters. Crackers. Pickles. Bread. Pepper sauce. W orcester sauce. Salmon salad. Chicken salad. Peafowl. Coffee. Chocolate. Ham Cake to placate a lot of malcontents and irre- concilables in New York city. Quay was distributing his leaven in Brook-j lyn and Kings county, and by the time , Brice found opportunity to look after his fences in that fancied Democratic! stronghold no less than six thousand votes had been irrevocably lost. An other strong influence lost to the De mocracy, and one that was greatly missed in t lie campaign, was t lie per sonal presence and help of the late Henry Ward Beecher. Of course, thi~ could not be supplied, but with shrewd work and intelligent leadership at the ' real crisis of the campaign, it is believed . that the defection in the Democratic ranks could have been easily repaired in time to avert the disast er. Generally speaking, though, Mr. Ber ry discovered but few evidences of de moralization among Democrats there, and not the slightest indication of busi ness disturbance, as a result of the elec tion. The Democrats, as a majority, were too much elated at the success <«1 the city and State tickets to pine over Cleveland’s defeat, while the Republi cans appeared happy to have gotten anything at all. lie was twitted by one overzealous patriot of the Republican species concerning the alleged dissolu tion of the Solid South—which, by the way, appears to be a popular delusion just now among Republicans at the North—but Mr. Berry pointed proudly to Coweta’s majority for Cleveland and tariff reform as a fair illustration of the South’s solidarity, and backed this ui> wi’ h some strong facts going to show why this condition was not only nec essary as a defensive policy, but that it could be easily maintained, it is scarce ly worth while to add that the esteemed Republican muggins was downed in the argument, though Mr. Berry says he met others who entertained the same views with reference to the supposed effect that Harrison’s election would have on the political future of the South.
