' Well, well, says Joe. to stop a row, I'll let the water out rijcht now; So calling up little darkk DM. Soou had it running like a rill. Groat consternation did prevail. , : As we poor frogs did weep and wail ; f But Joe had taken it in hand, . f He'd let it out or he'd bed d.

Though the circles of pleasure seem happy aud bright, And nature looks smiling and gay; Yet oft to the heart amid scenes of delight, Come tokens ol passing away. . Ah. yes 1 'tis a tact ever inournr'ully true, Though pleasure and folly deny ; Those scenes that are brightest and dearest to view, j. Are quickest to vanish and die. You mny wajiderthe earth thio' he sunniest vales, Where youth blooms in beau ty;al ways; Yet lliere, on the wings of the balmiest galea, Are wafted the seeds oi dei-ay. Go search the rose dyed with crimson and red, That yesterday bloomed 'neath the hill ; Its leaflets are scattered its. beauty is fleJ Its breat.i Oft!' I'ners there still. Go view the stout oak, where branches are spread. 9 In the depths of the forest away, Go visit the hovel where poverty dwells W here sorrow and wretchedness stay Ah I s. d is the story the broken heart tells Of l.opes that have withered away. In the fondlv loved home where aObctionV bright chain,,; Like a rainbow encircles the hearth; ' The soi rowing heart and the tears rent in twain, Tell of gems that have faded from earth. Ye are passing away it is thundered around. By the voice of tlie ca nract s roar ; And ocean re echoes the sorrowful sound, 'Till it vibrates from island to shore. Ajnd of the wild winds as they sweep o'er the plains, Where empires and kings lie forgot: Rcp3:iting their sory ift sad wailip.g strains, Will wh.sper. .they were, but are not. Thus Natbre, and Reason, and Time will reply '1 hat 'earth with its joys must decay ; That Heaven alone, in those mansions on "high, Hath pleasures that pass not away:' A Horrible Story-A Youus Lady Buried, All ve. ' About a month ag the lower por- a young lady of that locality, and very well eonnected had been buried and ' ' yet no definite information could be gathered lo authorize publication in the oaners.- Since that time, however, we have been enabled to obtain the following U:.

The death of this young lady in the lloqnj of life, (at ;lw age of 20) caused much svmpathy in the neighborhod, and her funvral, which took place in the evening of the day ot ber death, attrac- led a lartre concourse of people. She had died about 1 o'-oloek in the mor ning, and the funeral occurred at 5 in the evening. So far there is nothing remarkable in this account, except probably ihe short lapxe q" time from the time of the biJy death to that pi her interment at ouce ofthe Catholic cemetaries of the second district. - ' But the report goes on to ssy that on that same evening the sexton of the graveyard, having some business to attend to in town, left his son, of ma ture age, in charge of the keys, with tne instruction to ciose me gates at the uual hour, after making his round through the cemetery, in order that no victor might be accidentally confined irisde.

The spectacle raa too horrible to describe. Iler.faec. and body were in alcrrible state of distortion, her hair torn f rem the roots. In the terrible cbnTulions which had preceded her death, she bad literly harrowed her beautiful face with hejr nails, and the clenched fiss in contact with her foaming lips showed the traces of ber teeth.

The first Masonic fffncral that ever occurred in California, took place in the year l84D,and was performed over a brother found drowned in the bay of San Francisco. An account of the cere monies states that on the body of; the deceased was found a silrer mark of a Mason, upon which were, engraved the initials of his name. A little further investigation revealed to the beholder the most singular exhibition of Mason ic emblems that was ever drawn by the ingenuity of man upon the human kin. .There is nothing in the history of traditions of Freemasonry equal to it Beautifully dotted on his left arm, in red and blue ink, which time could not efface, appeared all the emblems of the entire apprenticeship. There were the Holy Bible, square and compass, the twenty-four inch gigue nnd common gavel." There were also the Masonic pavement representing the ground floor of King Solomon's Temple, the indens ted tassel which surrounds it, and the blazing star in the centre. On his right arm, and artistically executed irt the sama lndelhble liquid, were the em. blems pertaining to the fellow craft's degree, viz: the square, the level anJ the plumb. There were also the five columns representing the five orders of architecture the Tuscan, Doric, Ionic, Corintllian and Composite. In removing his garments from his body, the trowel presented itseir, wttn Over his heart was the dot of in- cense. On other parts of his body was the bee hive, the book of constitutions, gaarded by the Tyler's sword pointing to a naked heart; the AlUsee.ng eye, ihe anchor and ark, the hour glass, the sevthe. the forty-sever.th problem of Euclid, the' sun, moon, stirs, and com- ' ets : the three step, which are emule matical of youth, manhooj and age. Admirably executed was the weeping viroin. reclinins on a broken .column, upon which lay the book of constit 1 ; -. , - , . . , i 1 1 ,u ttons.

John Jay Anderson against James M. liar ris, and tho Bank of Cape Fear; June 29, 1809 Chief Justice Chase delivered the opinion ofthe; Court, as follows : ! . This is a suit in equity b the plain tifT. a citizen of Kentucky; -against the defendant, who are citizens of North Carolina. The substance of the case is, that Anderson having sold some mules to Harris, received his bonds for the price, and deposited them iin the Ctnli of Cape Fear for collection, late in 1860 or early in 1GG1. Subsequently the Bank-received partial pay wonts, which were transmitted to Anderson. The rebellion broke out soon afterwards. and thro were np more payments until leoa, wnen tbe twlauco on the first bond was pahl. The secopd bond of $450, and interest, wcro paid Ii full early in 18G3. These payments were made in Confederate Doles, and the bonds were surrendered to Harris The bill charges that there was col lusion between tho Bmk and Harris, in this attempt, to satisfy the bonds by payment in Confederate money, and prays that tin defendant may be com pe.led to satiny the debt due from Har ris. The bill does not allogo that. liar ris is insolvent, and this charge cf coU lusion is denied by the answer, and not supported by proofj There is no doubt that the Bank was constituted agent for collection by the plainliir, and it i not denied that lUo duties as such were faithfully fulfilled until after the corns mer cement of the civil war. Tho agen cy ofthe Bank was r.ot terminated by tlie bieaking out of hostilities. Thtj Biink might, indeed, have! declined to act further under its agency, aud might have retained the bonds fur delivery to the plaintiff; if it acted at nilit wa bound to act with care and diligence. In our opinion, the receipt of Confed erate notes, in pa ment of a debt to a citizen of a State, adhering to tho Na tianal Government, was nut the exorcise of such diligence. T Suh j-eceipt, however, did not dis charge the debtor fronv his debt. The bonds, though paid in form, and deliv ered to him as paid, by the agent, were not paid in fact. IIi still remain ed liable for the full amount of the debt Nothing could discharge him except ratification of thej acts of the agent, or voluntary release by the cred itor, or actual payment iii lawful mon- e". . I No discharge, such as is hero descri- j "ef The evidence is that tho creditor disavowed the authorized ftCt3 uf lhe RnJ ingted on pay merit inXuIJ. But, we think that ha could not disv . , ruar nA u aLlrt to r,sv ih dht and no loss has arisen to j the creditor - ei r j from the acts ofthe Bank, it is difficult to sej how the creditor can establish I ant? rirrtit na nffilncf tliuf Anrnnrnl R-htsJ and remedies ft,: beVwecn the an(j the debtor are matters-be j tween them, ind not between the Bank and the creditor, unless loss has arisen l . . 1 if .. . .1 - I'll . .. . . . . ebtor or of other loss.
