To all our ladyea fair; ere, before all, I pledge the name Of asunton's proud and beauteous dam- The Lady GOndamere." ouick to his feet each gallant sprang, And joyous was the shout that rang As Stanley gave the word; And every cup was raised on high, ;or cea-ed the loud and gladsome cry "T ll Stanley's voice was heard. . Enough, enough," he smiling said, And lowly bent his haughty head. , That all may have their due, Now each in turn must play his part, And d,lgige the lady e of his heart, Like gallant knight and true." flen, one by one, each guest sprang up, And drained in turn the brimming cup, And named the loved one's name; And each, as hand on high he raised, Il-j ladyQ's grace and beauty praised, Her c,,flstarcy and fame. .1L) nowL.

KAansav : Communicate at -once to the respec tive agents of your superintendency to send out runners to all the hostile and other Indians in their agencies, to meet the Indian peace commissioners at Fort larned,. at the full moon in October next. N. U(. TAYLOR, Pres. C('em's. A similar dispatch to the above was also sent to H. B. Denman, of the north ern superintendency, instructing him to assemble the Indians at Ft. Laramie. ATTEMI'TED REGICIDES--The danger to which the Russian Czar was exposed the other day in the Bois de Boulogne. is an ordeal from which few ot his fel low sovereigns have wben exempted. Even Queen Victoria, in spite of the loyalty and affection which attonded her, has been four times attacked. There have been at least six l.lots to assassinate the Emperor Napoleon. In October, 1852, when Napoleon. who was on the eve of becoming Emperor, was at Marseilles, an infernal machine, formed by 2,50 gun barrels, charged with 1,500 balls. was to have been discharged against the prince and his eorte~, but the design was not carried out. On July 5th. 1853. a fresh attempt was made to assassinate him as he was going to the ()peraComique. Twelve Frenchmen were arrested as being concerned in the con spiracy. On April 28th. 185.5,Jean Liv erani tired two shots at the Emperor in the Grand Avenue of the Champs Ely sees. In 1857. Tinbaldi, Bartolotti. and Girilli went from England to Paris to as sassinate the Emperor, but were discov ered, arrested, tried and punished. On January 14th, 1858, Orsini. Gomes, Pieri and Rudio threw their shells at the Em peror. On December 24th, 1863. Greco. Trambucco. Imperatore and Scaglioni, who had gone from London with the in tention of killing the French Emperor, were arrested in Paris. The king of Prussia was fired at by Oscar Becker, a law student of Leipsic, at Baden, on the 14th of July. 1861-the excuse given for the attack being that he was not capa bleofetffecting the unity of Germany : and his minister, ('ount Bismarck, had a narrow escape tromm young Blind. The Emperor of Austri t. on February 18th, 1853, was struck with a knife in the neck by a Hlungarian named Dibney; In 1858 an att.empt was made on the life of Victor Emanuel. and the Queen of Spain has been twice assailed. There is some thing very remarkable in the almost in variable failure. of these attempts. In recent times only two rulers have fallen victimns to assassination-thie Duke of Parxma, whlo, in 1854, was stabbed with a lo)ignard in the abdomen. and Abxa ham Lincoln, on April 14th, 18(::.-the murderer in each ot these cases making good his escape.
