Who heaves the bicnst of sweet sixteen I
Ily every namo I cut on bark
Belore my tuornliig star grow, dark j
Uy Hymen's torch, by Cupid's dart J
By nil that thrills the heating heart ;
Tin bright black eye, tho melting blue
I cannot choose between the tw o.
I had a vision In my dreams;
I saw a row of twenty beam, J
From every beam n rope wns hung,
In overy ropoa lover swung!
I nsked tho huo of overy eyo
That hade each luckless lover die;
Ten shadowy lips said heavenly blue,
And ten accused the itaiker hue.
1 asked n matron which alio deemed
Willi fairest light of beauty beamed ;
8ho answered, somo thought both were Iftlr
Olve her blue eyes and golden hair,
I might havo llltod her Judgment well,
Hut as sho spuko she rang n bell,
And nil her girls, nor small nor few,
Came marching In their eyes were blue,
1 nsked n maiden; hack she flung
The locks that round her forehead hung,
And tin ned her eye n gtorous one,
Bright, ns n diamond In the sun,
On me, until bencnth lis rajs,
1 felt as If my hnlr would blaze;
Hho liked all eyes but eyes of green ;
She looked nt me; what could sho menu?
Ah I many lids Lovo links between
Nor heeds the coloring of Ills screen t
And when his random nrrnws lly,
Tho victim falls, but knous not whr,
Onze not upon his shield of Jet,
The shnft upon the string Is set ;
Look not bencnth his nzurc veil,
Though every limb were eased In malt.
Well, both might make n martyr .reak
The chain that bound him to tho stake ;
And both, with but n sluglo ray,
Can melt our very hearts away;
And both when batanced, hardly ceni
To stir the scute 1, or rock the beam ;
But that Is dearest all Hie while
That wears for lis the sweetest smllf.

Ihichanau was not a man of decision
except in eases whero lie had fully ex
amined himself. Thus, when lie gave
un mo law at tne age 01 lony, lie was v
never but oneo tempted back to it, and
then on the earnest plea of it widow. Ho
was frequently urged to como forward ,
again, but his mind was made up,
There are Instances of professional

saying to tho man; ,
"Do you take this money and move ,

drinking and go to church, and that is
tho best way you can pay me. !
Tradition relates that tho man came
back after a period of years, repentant
and well-to-do, and thanked the old
lawyer.
As a lawyer, Huchantiii was noted
chiefly for tho perspicuity of ids state
ments. Like Lincoln, he presented n
case so that.both.sldes ol it wero exposed.
Ills voice wns of fairstrength, very de
liberately enunciated, and pitched In n
peculiar tone, attended with a blinking
of ono eye as ho drew line sights of
meaning. Ho had no personal collision
witli opposite counsel, being too cold of
temperament to sell his heart with his
talents, Nobody ever saw him cast
down; lie was sometimes angry, but
put a small vnluo upon vindletlvcuoss ;
whatever personal despite or humilia
tion ho felt was husbanded up in his
secret bachelor heart and no man shared
its Jiang. He laughed often, moro ve
hemently than heartily, and chielly at
his own relations of things pa-t or per
sons nbsent.
TIUCirANAN'rl MOHEI.s AND AVEHSIONS.
Mr. Swarr, his executor, says that ho
has often heard Mr. Huchanan express
his admiration or Mr. Henry Clay. Tills
wns, f,f course, after Mr. Clay's decease.
Said ho:
"Of all tho men 1 ever know, Mr.
Clay stood highest In magnanimity, In
conscious, posltlvo superiority. Ho was
it splendid leader, largely endowed with
tho graces, with eloquence, genius,
heartiness, nnd soul."
His generlcndnilratloiis wero not east
about among popular nud representative
favorites, howovcr. Mr. lirown, n
leading lawyer here, states that tho old
gentleman used to mention, with high
rosptct, Hllns Wright as his chief mod
el. So did ho tidiiilro Nathaniel Macon
Win. Lowndes, of South Carolina, Mr.
Chestnut nnd Mr. Pinckney. Ho had a
regard for the good that was In Pre-I.
author nmong statesmen was Thomas
Jefferson, and ho used to describe, with
a single mixture of iiniusomentiiud as
tonishment, tho rough-grained sagacity
of Andrew Jackson, From tho com
bined testimony of his visitors It ap
pears that Biiclmnan's expression of
love for his Stato favorites wns ifn In
tellectual measurement rather than 11
reverence or a grateful reminiscence.
He stated to Mr, Smith, editor of the
famous old Democratic sheet, tho Lull
mister Intelligencer, that Andrew John-
son Iiml oiico vlsttctl Wliofltlftuil, nnd
Impressed him (lluciinnnn)with nn Men

Diirltip; Jolniioii'd dliputei with Con

President seemed unduly nnxlotn about
liis relative rank with his nupportcrit.
Tho ex-l'rcsideiit said Hint a President
ought todo without sueh Jealousies. Hit
chaiian believed that Johnson ivouldbo
convicted. Ho mid to repentcdly dur
ing tho trial, onco alleging that nn ng
grewivo party having committed Itself
to n project, wns bound to enrry it out
on tho principle, of self-preservation.
"There will not bo enough independent
Senators to clear him," ho said, nmong
Ills last remarks upon tho news. When

Buchanan said ! "Tho wind shifts, Par

an ns tho founder of tho llcpublicnn par
ty. Ofhlm ho dletnted thoe words:
"He wns much moro of n politician than
n statesman. Without strong convic
tions, lie understood the art of preparing
in his closet, and uttering before tho
public, antithetical bcntcnces, well eal
culntcd both to Inilnmo the nrdor of his
anti-slavery friends nnd to exnipernto
his pro-slavery opponents. He raised
n storm which, llko others of whom we
read In history, ho wanted both thceour-
ngo nud tho power to itiell."
Among the other dlstingubhcd peo
ple who havo lived in this County of
Lancaster were Langdou Cheves, Gov

During Mr. lluchanau's life, Wheat

"Provided they do so of their own

any person whatsoever,"
Lying in his colllln so like a gravoold 1

In everything nnd everywhere. At
homo nnd nbrottd sho Is equally doml

nnd, inplto of King, Kaiser, or Police

den that she shall go? Xot tho largo
boned, muscular woman, whatever her
temperament; unless, Indeed, of the
exceptionally haughty typo In distinct
ly Inferior surrounding, nnd then sho
ca i itieen It royally enough, and set
everything nt lordly defiance. Hut In
general tho largo boned women obeys
the orders given, hecutieo while near
enough to man to be somewhat on a
par with him, sho Is still undoubtedly
Ids Inferior. Shu Ik too strong to shelter
herself behind her weakness, yet too
weak to assert her strength, and defy
her master on equal ground. Sho is
like n flying fish, not one tiling wholly;
and while capable of tho inconveniences
of two lives, Is incapable of tho privi
lege of either. It is not she, for all her
well developed frame nudjffornildablo
looks, but tho llttlo woman, who breaks
the whole code of laws, and defies all
their defenders tho pert, smart, pretty
Utile woman, who laughs In your face,
nnd goes straight nhend If you try to
turn her to the right hand or to tho left,
receiving your remonstrances with the
most sublime Indifference, ns If you
wero talking a foreign language, which
she did not understand. She carries
everything before her, wherever she is.
You may sec her stepping over barriers,
slipping over ropes, penetrating to tho
greenbeiiches with a red t icket taking the
beat places on tho platform over the
heads of their rightful owners', settling
hei'nolf among the reserved seats with
out nn inch of pasteboard to float iter.
You cannot turn her out by mnln force.
Hrltish chivalry objects to tho public
laying on of hands lit tho case of n wo
man, oven when most recalcitrant and
ui.-obedient ; moro particularly if
biimll mill frngllo looking wotmvn. So
that, if it is only n usurpation of places
specially masculine, sho is allowed to
retain what sho has got amid tho grave
looks ofthe elders not really tllsiilcas
ed, though, at tho flutter of her ribbons
amongst them and tho tho titters and
nudges of tho young fellows. If tho
battle Is between her mid another wo
man, they are left to fight it out us they
best can, with the odds laid heavily on
the little one.
All tills time there is nothing nf the
tumult of contest about her. I'lery and
combative as she generally Is, when
breaking tho law in public places she
I- the soul of serene daring, Shu shows
no heat, no pus-Ion, no turbulence ; she
leaves tlie.-e as extra weapons of defence
to women who are ns-allalile. I'or her
self she requires no such aid-. She
knows her capabilities and the line of

knows, too, that the fewer point- of con-te.-t.-he

to which nature ha- dedicated herfinm
the beginning.
A- a rule, tho little women are brave.
When the lymphatic giantess falls Into
n faint or goes off Into hysterics, she
storms, or bu-tles about, or holds Jon
like n giiinn terrier, according to tho
work on hand. Sho will lly nt nny man
that annoys her, and bears herself equal

Tiio Dioceso of Pennsylvania at pres

prising about thirty thousand square
miles, nnd containing n population of
moro than two millions of souls, It 1
evident nt 11 glance that there Is a lar
ger population nnd grenter extent of

Tho precarious health of Hlshop Ste

a matter of economy, division is
the cheaper. The Convention raised
tho Ill-hop's salary to W'fi00,nml recom
mended the piircha-e of nn Epl-copnl
residence, nt nn additional expense of
$3.i,000, nnd the salury of uu assistant
would not be less than $3,000. Wo be

In concentrating and organizing tho la

An assistant Bishop is after nil only n
Journeyman. He cannot; originate, lie
can direct, only lu subordination to the
Bishop. His powers are ns perfunctory
as his duties, and in neither is ho n free
or Independent agent. It was under

" X have Asked Jesus, but He did
not."
Ol'lt llttlo boy the only one, not yet
1 four years old-liasjust had an attack
little boy butter ; you know he can do
It." In a very sorrowful tone he re
plied, "1 have a-ked Jcmw, papa, but
ho did not."
HI-answer was like n sword In my
heart, but I endeavored to explain b
him that God does not always answer
our prayer.-ju-t when we ask Him, und
; Ju-t ns we wi-h Him ; uud that the Inst
way is to u-k Him till lie does.
On the following clay, while rellectliig
upon ids words, tho thought nuddenly
Hashed Into my mind, "Pool that I
have been! What an lire.-Utiblu plea
at tho throne of grace has the child
, given 1110 I What a mighty lever for
1.11th to grasp !" And the prayer went
, up insometlilng llkethe.-e words," tile.
scd Jcsu-, thou knowe-t that I have
, told the child over nnd over again that
, thou art God, and that thou heate-t
, mid nnsvereat prayer. Oh, If it bo thy
' ble.-ecl will, for the glory of thy great
name, don't let tho child think thnt I
1 have told him lies. Don't let him say,
'I iiave asked Je-iis, hut ho did not.'
Oh, bo pleased to restore him nnd! let
him know thou hast done It."
Now, mark tho result. Tho child bo
gnu to mend from that hour; and niter
u week's llluc-s, from Its commence
ment, Is how comparatively well. Hih
complaint, 1 11111-t mention, too, wa
1 ono which tho doctor, say Is always
I threo weeks before It Is nt It- height.
' I will only add, "Ulcus tho Lord, tl
1 my soul, and nil that Is within me,
i bless His holy name. We. the Lord,
' O my Mini, uud forget not nil Ills bent
