THE
A. Yonug Ladr'a Soliloquy.
Uselessly, aimlessly drilling through life,
W hat was I bora for ? '- For somebody'! wife,"
I am told by my mother. Well, that being true,
'Somebody " keeps himself strangely from view;
And if not but marriage will settle my fete,
I believe I shall die in an unsettled state ;
Tor, though I'd. no! ugly pray, what woman is ?
auu uiigui easily nna a more ieauiiiut pniz:
And then, as for temper and manners, 'tis plain
He who seeks for perfection will seek mi in
rain.
Say, in spite of .ikese drawbacks, my heart is
perrerse.
And I ht..iid not fel grateful, "for better or
worse,"
To tae tue first body that graciously came,
And nfi-red those treasures his horns and his
name.
I thin., then, my chances of marriage are small.
But why should I think of such chances at all ?
My brothers are, all of them, younger than I,
Yet ih-y thrive in the world, and why not let me
try?
I know that in business I'm not an adept.
Because from such matters most strictly I'm kept;
But this is the question that puzzles my mind
Why ax I not trained np to work of some kind ?
Uselessly, aimlessly drifting through Hie.
Why should I wait tp be " somebody's wife ? "
Chamber's Ediuburg Journal.
It is related that a diffident Hart
ford bachelor went to the sea shore in
August to seek refuge from the loneli
ness of the celibacy, and one dark even
ing, enjoying the breeze on the piazza of
his hotel, happened to take a seat that
had just been vacated by the husband of
a loving wife, with whom the happy man
had been chatting. In a few moments
'he lady returned, and mistaking the
stranger for her husband, lovingly en
circled his neck, and gave him an affec
tionate kiss, with the remark, " Come,
darl ng, is it not about time to retire?"
He did not faint, but the shock was very
severe.
Enlisting Negroes in the Union
Armt. The Nashville Union tells the
following matter-of-fact good one:
A slaveholder from the country ap
proached an old acquaintance, also a
slaveholder, residing in this city, the
other day, and said:
"I have several negro men lurking
about here somewhere. I wish yon would
look out for them, and when yon find
them do with them as if they were your
own."
"Certainly I will,'' replied his friend.
A few days ago the parties met again,
and the planter asked:
"Have von found my slaves?''
"I have"."
"And where are they?"
. "Well, you told me to do with them
just as if they were my own, and, as I
made my men enlist in the Union Army,
I did the same with yours!"
The astounded planter absquatulated.
An officer who was inspecting his
company one morning, spied one private
whose fhirt was badly begrimmed.
" Patrick O'Fin," called out the captain.
" Here, yer honor," promptly responded
Patrick, with hand to his cap. " How
long do yon wear a shirt ?" thundered
the officer. u Twenty-eight inches !" was
the rejoinder.
Jeff's House. The Hartford Post is
responsible for the following capital ap

Sharp Practice. Many years ago,
at a dinner party in Glasgow, there via.3
present a lawyer of very sharp practice,
fond of giving toasts or sentiments.
After the cloth was removed, and the
bottle had gone round once or twice
the ladies withdrew to the higher pleas
ures of the drawing room, all but a very
plain old maid. She remained behind,
and as the conversation began to be a
little masculine, our friend of the long
robe was anxious to get rid of the
" ancient," and for this purpose rather
prematarely asked Thrumbstbe privilege
of giving a toast This being granted,
he arose and gave the toast of " Honest
men and bonny lasses." The toast was
drank with all honor, when the dame,
who was sitting near the lawyer, rose
from her seat, gave the lawyer a poke in
the ribs, with the end of her finger, and
after having said, "Mr. the toast
neither applies to yon or me," then left
the room.

Steamer-
The river is receding slowly but the
channel is washing out and navigation
remains about the same as for a week
past.
The officers of the Colossus report 23
incbes at French Island, the worst place
hence to Louisville.
They also report the Hastings, Fisher
and Pocahontas aground at French Is
land, and the mighty Colossus was there
detained many valuable hours.
The Huntsman arrived from Cairo
about half past 11 o'clock on Thursday
night
In order to give the Des Moines City an
open field she lays over until to-day at
noon when she will leave, under com
mand of that veteran and unsurpassable
officer, Commodore Dexter, chief of the
Evansville and Cairo packet Kne, who
thrives on opposition, and can get a
boat through aa long as the ground is a
little moist. Fred Huston is the courte
ous and popular clerk.
The Colossus arrived about 2 o'clock
yesterday having been detained several
hours as indicated above.
Speaking of the Colossus, the erudite
and astute editor of the river depart
ment of the New Albany Ledger thus in
diteth, truthfully and eloquently:
