Bat the poor Queen, by raging love oppressed, 1
Nursed the fierce fire, and said she coulJn treat;
She hep a thinking what a trump was he,
| And how he fetched from hesvon bts pedigree;.
His handsome talk, his git-op ail so stsep,
, ... Denied the Queen inwigoratiu sleep.
Beil day the spn.arose at jest suunse.
And sent the dank fog sneskin from the Ales,
'Whoa to his sister lhits shs did declsre,—
- I’ve had, dear Anna, a nocturnal mare. »
FMa wise yoong man. that’* now a stopputhere,
To my affections is a erawUn near:
Bit origin’s eeleatial, I’ve so doubt; '
Such fearless soulsin this ere worlddon t sprout,
. my grief! what upa anddowns that maa basinet.
And what tremenjoua battles be has fit l
<F1 hadn't vowed sot to unite again,
I sial quite certain but I should eavein.
Disco my poor 8ie. waa slswd by brother Fyg, 20
For no live man I’ve aver eared a fig; —
But aisce to Carthago this brave hero came,
j upd o’ feel that same old ancient flame.
But rd he Swallowed up alive right here,
Or kanoked insensible by Jupiter,
Before/oh! Modesty, I’d murder thee,
Or scandalise our best society
While Sicbmus keeps bis coffined itate,
lly heart lies with his ashes,—that’s my gait.”
Thus Dido speaks, her swally choked with tears,—
Whom thus the sympathising Anna cheers;
•*Oh sistsr, dearer than the light of day, #1
Why. will you weep your preeioue eyes away ?
Bo you suppose your husband’s bone-dnst cares
A Bongtown copper who his trowsis wears ?
•Twas weH enough to sack the Lybian poors,
And pnt a Asa ie swart Iarbas’ ears,
But if td this man you take such a shine,
fc-K By-all meant I advise you to sail i*. g
Have you forgot our fierce Numidian foes T
Beth not Gmtulia rob us of repose ?
. Is net Tyre with us for a scrimmage booked t
Will not Pygmalion seek bis pewter hooked?
It’s ssy opinion Juno manned the oars
That pulled this gallant Trojan to our shores,
And if you can but make this match ignite,
Our eity’ll Sourish higher nor a kite;
If Troy and Carthage can their horeei hitch
TI will raise our glorv to the highest pitek.
Bow my dear sister, follow my advice,—
Go and prepare the goda a sacrifice;
Less haves party, and a high old time,
And play your best card for detaining him,
While etormy winter rules the sea and sky.
And his worn ships are laid up high and dry.”
This kind of talk the Queen of shaine bereft,
Till nary a scruple in her mind was left.
8o to the meetinhouse a call they paid, 6(
And on the altar slaughtered several bead
Vi. *wo~ycur~uiu9, iv bcb u iubj vuuiu yum
Ceres, anil sundry other deities:
Bat first of all, they seek the aid of Jura,
Who has a hand in every wedding, you know.
Dido herself stood o’er the-broiling kins,,
And on their foreheads spilt a mug of wine.
Or ’mong the loaded altars wandered round,
To see what happy omens could be found.
Oh ignorant diviners! what’s the use
Of poking into smoking entrails thus.
While through her marrow -the fierce fluid rum
And hot combustion eats her very bones.
Through tho wide city’s avenues and gates
Her restless Majesty perambulates,—
As, in the forest, some unwary stag,
(On whom some sportsman, seeking game to hag
Hath drawn a bead, with weapon pitiless,)
Flies, leaping, through the Cretan wilderness,
Thp deadly arrow siickin in his feelings,
Unconscious what it is provokes bis squealing*.
Bow she locks arms, nod shows him through tb
town.
And promenades the sidewalks up and down,
points out her palaces, and brown stone fronti
And gently hints they are To Lit, at once;
Then put him through another course of feed,
And wants to hear more of lb* Trojan steed.
When nil the guests had left, and gone to bod,
And ths pnlo moon had sunk into the shade,
8he wandered through the lonely banquet hal
And tried his voice and features to recall;
Then sought Ascanius, and hugged the lad,
Because he looked so very like his dad.
The public buildings go up vory tardy,
Tho aqjsr-boys don’t drill, or study Hardee,—
The rampart* and intrenchmonts are neglectcc
And migl ity little progress is effected.
Juno, meanwhile, perceiving how she acted,— $
With Cupids pison ravin and distracted,
Of reputation so oblivious
8ho didn’t cars a continental cuss—
She, (Juno,) went to Venus, and says she,
'* What a condemn Bmart pair of gods you ho I
You and your Boy may deem it a big thing
To got this feeble woman on a-string,
Bui I don’t see it,—but I do see this;
You’reWown on my new-built metropolis.
Bow whither do your machinations tend,
Or when will these deplored contentions end ?
Why not unite them in the bands of Hymen,
ft you and I can live two loving women?
ou have accomplished alt your heart’s desire,—
Poor Dido loves him like a bouse afire,—
Less put ths royal robes on both their books.
And you and I go tutelary snacks.”
Venus perceived that she was playing possum
101
And with deceitful purpose, answered, “ Yes’m
Sinee you’re disposed the handsome thing do,
I must not he at loggerheads with you,—
But Jupiter, you know, must have his say,
Or ols* there’ll be the very juice to pay.
,Yq» are bis wife—you pump him,—I’ve no doub
He’ll be nil right; you lead,—I’ll follow suit.
• ."This little chore I’ll undertake, my dear,” 11
Said royal Juno: “ Bow jest look a bora;
The Trojan prinee and Dido ride away
To go a hunting, at tho break of day '
To-morrow. While the huntera spread the!
toils
I'll ill the sky, with thnnders and turmoils,
Sutter their retinue with hail and rain,
And into the same cavern lead the twain. -
I’ll be on hand, and if .you don’t back down.
I'll join ’em fast, end do the job up brown.”
" Buff eed," replied the diplomatic Venus;
"This trick shall ba Inwiolate between ns.”
And now the morning sun ascends ths sky; 12
The armed kuutsr* to the forests his,
With nets, and such like preparation.
And packs of hounds, that bark like all arsatisi
The Carthaginian peers expectant wait
'Per Dido’s coming, at her door-yard gats,
While the, arisen from unquiet slumber,
Is patting on her Sunday clothes, up ehombsi
Her fiery steed, his foaming bit a chawing.
Impatient stands, With pride ths fresh turf pav
lag.
At length sb* issues from her domieil,
With hoops, and fringo, and point-laee, drtsse
«tu kill”:
Ha* <*rtnM WfLlftli fttirlrin !n liar Invalv wtiil.
Her hair done up with tortorshell and taste,
Her fragile corpus in a French mantiller,
Her hankercher perfumeried with vaniller:
jEueas attends her scrumptious as Apollo,
The Phrygian youths and sweet Ascanius to
low.
And now the party seek the wooded hills, 15
And straightway dislocate the animiles.
Giraffes and chipmunks, from the mountain peal
Tumble and gallop like a tbousan o’ briok:
Lion* and woodchucks clatter down-the vales.
With snorting snouts ereot, and likewise taili
Aaoaniua bravely guides his steed imperious,
And “wishes he could bag a rbinoeerious.”
Bat Tumbling sounds a coming tempest told, Id
Ana quick, from cloud and crag, a deluge roll
*d;
. Fire fought with darkness in the crackling skj
WssnCsuii hung his hellish tapestry.
While beasts and men disperse in dumb alarm
And (ought to hide them from the wrathfi
storm.
The Trojan leader and the Tyrian Queen IG,
In the predestinated cave convene,—
Thep.Earth the signal gives, with laboring criei
Great Juno speeds the nuptial mysteries.
The flashing lightnings tell the consoious sky.
And wood-nymphs shriek from craggy summit
high.
Oh sad birthday of unavailing woe 1
Oh Gave, thou dark abode of mischief,—Oh l
Dido no longer acts clandescently,
Bni openly, and quite indecently,—
Calls him her husband, and in this way tries
To pull the wool o’er circumspecting eyes.
Bat Jupiter, the'great, grand-, high old turk, 2!
8uw what was going on, and said, “What work
Mercury, my son, put on your shappo, .quick,
And fly for Carthage city like a streak;
ABneaa is there, a hangin around Dido,—
1 want to know what he means by it, 1 do!
Tell him to paok up, and he off for Italy,
Or if ha don't, I’ll larrup him, most mightily !
Bo Mareury put his wing-ed india rubbers o«
2l
And are you could articulate Jack Robison,
, He faced the Trojan, busy as a bee
Repairing Dido’s wash-tub, and says ho,
“ How drop that hammer, like a hot potater.
And put your fleet to sea,—thut’a what’s th
matter t
The Fates ordain that you get up a nation
Whose fame and power shall spread through al
creation,
And Jot* says if Jou a°n,t thlt WMsaffb,
Ho’ll knock you etiffer’n a Bolony sassage!
Now stir your stumps for Latium, and be spry I”
With that, ho vanished in the sky-bine sky.
A shiver ran ttyougb JEneas’os ossibus, 279
His speeehlssa vox stuck in his (battering fsuci
bus
The hair stood end wise on his powdered wig,
14 ko quills upon the fretful poreupig:
His situation's awkward and Unpleasant—'
Ho wants to go, and then again he dissent:—
At length he calls MnestAeus, and Sargsstus,
And likewise also excellent Serestus,
And they fit out their vessels on the sly,
And seek to leave those parts in oecreoy.
Bat Dido smelt the Trojan strategom, 296
And like a Fury thus pitch'd into him;
'* 0*1 Jou perfigeous willin! will you play
This heartless game all unbeknown to mot
Will not our love, will pot my given hand,
Will Dido’s tears not atay yon in my land f
Will yon attempt the wintry winds to brave.
And apreadyour sails upon t be treacherous wave.
Where fierce sea-wolves arc rollicking and snarl
ing.
-Whore hungry sharks will pulverise my darling?
By this great grief, that now my bosom wrings,
By love, and truth, and vows, and all them things,
Proceed, I do adjure you, to relent!
For if yon don’t, I certainly .shall faint!"
Says iEoeas, “,1 am your most obedient, 333
But to stay here don’t seem to be expedient.
Wher’er I wander on this earthly ball,
I always will say you're a gay old gal.
I didn’t exactly mean te Sneak away,—
But then again, 1 haint agreed to stay:
The ghost of my progenitor, Anchises,
Each night beside my troubled couch arises,—
The gods command me to get out of this,
And paddle off to find my .destines.”
“ Oh monster!” erics the disappointed woman;
366
*’ Ho goddess Is thy mother, nor no ‘human!
But thou west horn out of tho flinty’ rock.
And fierce Hyrcanean tigers gave thee suck 1
Now, now, great Juno, see this savage creature!
Ho don’t exhibit one redeeming feature!
I took him, shipwrecked on my friendly shore,
I entertained him like an emperor.
Got up a supper, fed bis lousy crew,
And heard bis egotistic yarn clear throuph !
Tou talk about obeying Joro’s decree,—
Flapdoodle ! what a pious man you be !
Well, go, and leave mo, lone and destitute;
I will not argufy with such a brute!
Rui if tho gods are worth a single nickel,
I hope they’ll give you an eternal piekle1
And my indignant ghost, when I am dead.
Shall ride your conscience likea pig of lead !”
Completely overcome by rage and passion, 391

The screaming maidens bear tbeir prostrate Queen
Unto a bed, with croshay counterpane,—
These read the homeopathy book, while those
Hold a cologne-jar to her pallid nose.
When, in the morning, from her palaoe towers
684
She saw his lessening sails, and flashing oars,
She tore her golden locks in ecstasy,
And pounded on her breast considerably .
Oh Jupiter 1 shall this man get away !
Spread sails ! bring firebrands ! Ahlwhatdol
say!
Why did I not revenge me while he stayed ?
I might have found his flint heart with my blade;
Deaconed his pug-nosed boy, while I was able,
And fricassed him for his father's table,—
But now I writhe in impotent dismay,
While he goes, (dum it,) on his heartless way 1”
ller bloodshot eyeballs roll, while thus she
’ speaks,
_ And purple spots suffuse her quivering cheeks;
she mounts, with wild impetuosity,
A funeral pile, Borne 44 feet high,—
q Made of pitch pine, at least 2U0 cords—
And thus pronounces these, her latest words:
' . 65(
i “ Behold, I go tho way of all mankind.
’ I've done the work by changeless Fate assigned.
I’ve built a city, seen my finished towers—
Oh that the Trojan had not touched my shores!’
With these remarks, the deadly dirk she grabs,
And hits herself severial powerful jabs: 66?
[ Forth leaps the boiling life-blood, and the crowi
’ Their fallen Queen behold, with clamors loud:
Loud clamors, nnd loud lamentations rise,
Hoar through the city, and assault the skies.
Thrice she supports herself upon her elbow,
And strains her eyes, to see her infidel beau,—
Thrice does she seek the blazing light of day,
’ And, having found it, groauing turns away.
5 Then Juno, pitying her agony, 69?
Sent Iris down, the struggling soul to free.
The dewy Iris, on her saffron wings.
With thousand radiant encolorings,
Shot through the vapors, with immortal speed
And stood above the death-devoted head.
“This lock to Pluto’s realms I bear away,
And now release thee from this ruined clay.”
So saying, she cut the lock of golden hair,
And life departed on the sightless air.
Figutinu Qualities.—Tue Newburyport Her
ald referring to the fighting qualities of the dif
ferent sections, says:
“The South, fiery and impassioned, were best
for a sudden stroke and a short effect; though
they have hardly given the evidence of personal
courage nnd reckless bravery for which they
! claimed credit. The Northeast shows the pa
’ tient endurance, that wears well, growing better
’ and better. While the South are giving out, the
Northeast has not fully waked up; the war has
not begun in earnest with them. Butthe North
west displays the most soldierly qualities.—
They have not been so well provided as the men
; from this section Their clothing has been
. poorer, and for a long time they were without
> arms; but they have excelled in every field
where they have been called to -act; first in
Western Virginia; then in Missouri; and now in
Kentucky and Tennessee. When they told the
r Southerners that they would reduce their States
to a wilderness before they would see the Union
dissolved, and they would make a fish pond oi
New Orleans before they would give up the pas
sage of the Mississippi—they uttered no idle
words; and what they did at Fort Donelson must
convince their opponents that they will verify
every word they uttered, if the rebellion is per
il sisted in. We think their superior soldiership
J is largely owing to the infusion of Teutonic
blood. They have a large proportion of G ermans
who performed military duly at home. It it
' something of a process and requires time for a
man to lose himself in a soldier, so that he will
work like a piece of maehinery putting aside his
own will for the will of another, unthinking o1
himself, and like a piece of iron acting the
thonghts of his commander. The Germans have
learned this; Americans may be forced to lean
it.
1 Sharp Practice —The Hartford Post givet
the following summary of a cast in the Superioi
Court:—
In 1859 Mr. Converse, the Deputy Sheriff 01
Hartford County, went to the house of Geo. Hen
ry, Collinsville, to attach some property, wi.h i
regularly executed writ. He did attach a cor
found in a barn, but going into Henry’s store,
. left his writ lying on the counter as he went out,
1 Mr. Henry immediately locked up the store and
the writ inside, and went to dinner Mr. Con
’ verse, after an attempt to procure the writ and
make his return, left to get another one, still
keeping the cow. Before this was done, how
• ever, Mr. Henry sold the other cow, the law be
ing that if a man has but one cow, that cannot
. bo attached. Mr. Henry then also entsred an
J action against the Deputy Sheriff for trespass,
and the oase was appealed from the Justice
Court to the Superior Court.

The re opening of the tobacco trade between

• Among the relics from Manassas received at
Washington, are a Springfield musket manufac
tured in 1858, and supposed to be one of the

of which were manufactured from rasps, over a

eured so many and such dangerous cases as this. Some
no human aid can reach; hut even to those the Cherry
I\ctoral affords relief aod comfort
Astor House, New Tour Citt, March 5,1856.
Doctor Ayer. Lowell: I feel it a duty and a pleasure
to inform you what your Cherry Pctoral has done for my
wife. She hod been five months laboring under the dan
gerous symptoms of Consumption, from which no aid we
conld procure gave her much rellof. She was steadily fail
ing, until Dr. Strong, of this city, where wa have come for
advice, recommended a trial of yonr medicine. We bless
his kindness, as we do your skill; for she has recovered
from that day. She is not yet ns strong as she used to
be, but is free from her cough, and calls herself well.
Yours with gratitude and regard,

Consumptives, do uot despair till you have tiled Ayer’s
Cheery Pectoral. It is made by one of the beBt medical
chemists in the world, and its cures all around us bespeak
the high merits of its virtues. — Philadelphia Ledger.
Ayer’s Cathartic Pills.
THE sciences of Chemistry and Medicine have been
taxed their utmost to produce this beet, most perfect
purgative which is known to man. Innumerable proof*
aro shown that these Pills have virtues which surpass in
excellence the ordinary medicines, and that they win un
precedentedly upon the esteem of nil men. They are -afe
and pleasant to take, but powerful to cure. Their pene
trating properties simulate the vital activitiesof the body,
remote the obstructions of its organs, pnrify the blood,
and expel disease. They purge out the foul humorsVrhich
breed and grow distemper, stimulate sluggish or disor
dered organs into their natural action, and imi>art healthy
tone with strength to the whole system. Not only do
they cure the every-day complaints of every body, but
also formidable and dangerous diseases that have baffled
the best of human skill. While they produce powerftil
effects, they are at the same time. In diminished doses, the
saTest and best physic that can be employed for children.
Being sugar-coated, they are pleasant to take; and being
purely vegetable, are free from any risk of harm. Cures
have lieeu made which surpass belief were they not sub
stantiated by men of such exalted position and character
ks to forbid tlie suspicion of untruth. Many eminent
clergymen and physiciaus have lent their names to certify
to the public the reliability of my remedies, while others
hare sent me the assurance of their conviction that my
Preparations contribute immensely to the relief of my
afflicted, suffering^fellow-men.
The Agent below named is pleased to furnish gratis my
American Almanac, containing directions for tlieir use and
certificates of their cures, of the following complaints:—
Costive ness, Rtlfous Complaints, Rheumatism. Dropsy,
Heartburn. Headache arising from a foul stomach. Nau
sea. Indigestion, Morbid Inaction of the Rowels and Pain
arising therefrom, Flatulency. Loss of Ap|>erire. all Ulcer
ous nml Cutaneous Diseases which require an evnenant
medicine. .Scrofula or King’s KvJ1» 'J'bey also, by purify
ing the blood and stimulating the system, cure many
complaints which it would not he supposed they could
reach, such as Deafness, Partial Blindness. Neuralgia and
Nervous Irritability, Derangements of the Liver and Kid
neys, Omit, and other kindred complaints arising from a
low state of the body or obstruction of its functions.
Do not be put off by unprincipled dealers with some
other pill they make more profit on. A*k for Aykk’S
Pili.9. and take nothing el.*c. No other they cans giro
you compares with this in il» intrinsic value or curative
powers. Tho siek want the tost aid there is for them,
and they should have it. *

To* Remedies are carefully prepared under the direct
supervision and inspection of Prof. HUMPHREYS, in order
to meet that great and long "realized want of the publlo, '
namely, remedies for all the more common and simple ail- 1
m<A moment's reflection will show that a vast majority of !
diseases from which we suffer and die, were, at their com
mencement, simple and trilling. A mere cold, a slight diar- l
rhea, a pain in the side, or a headache, or hoarseness, at \
first easily cured and subdued, In time becomes a consump- ;
tion, a fever, a dangerous dysentery, Croup or ot»^* ‘
disease, which all the powers of medicine fail to arre?U
Herein these remedies supply a great public w*ak Ptang 1
on hand, simple, so you know at once ^ take
pleasant, so as to cause no repugnance— and hence
occasioning no risk, while the curatire effects art positive
and certain, they are taken, and at once the spell is broken
and the danger allayed. j
Other Homeopathic Medicines, however carefully pre
pared, or however full and extensive the Manual to which
you refer in order to use them, always require study and l
careful examination, and always leave you In doubt as to
the reiuedy chosen and the result. Such examination or
study and such doubt is always moat unfriendly to the sick
or ailing, and especially to be avoided. Nay, it often strikes
at the very foundation of success, and prevents a result
which, with confidence in the remedy, and hence persever
ance in its application, would have been easy.
Experience has amply confirmed the use of these reme
dies for families and private persons, as being tub bbst m
