Youth but now 'twas mine to taste; Manhood's purpose next I abased: While its spring my life retains, And theblood bounds through my veins Aged people passed along, Seeming as if never young ; And I thought their state from me Very far indeed to be. But Age met me on the way, Unexpectedly, one day ! I supposed him passing on, To attend some Ober one, And a wide berth, to go by, Gave his reverence, rather shy, Yet I bowed and touched my hat, For I always have done that, To denote respect for what, I must own, I covet not. Much it startled me when Eld Stopped me, and my button held, With familiarity, I thought, And an honor all unsought. Waiting not for his address— " Sir, your notice, I confess, Undeserved, for one, in Booth, Of my inexperienced youth. And "—I added, somewhat flurried— • " Just now, sir, I own, I'm hurried. You have business, too," said I, "Therefore, reverend sir, good bye!" But, he smiled; and, with a look Too familiar, would have took My reluctant hand in his, Had I not avoided this. Though so civil, all the while, I disliked his toothless smile ; And by no means bad a whim For a tete-a-tete with him. Much 1 feared his chill breath might My imperial whiskers blight: Now, like gold Hyperion's, they, Should he sprinkle them with gray, Would look wiser, silvered so; Yet the honor I'd forego. "Friend," said be, "your haste appears Unbecoming for your years. I have business, as you say; But, 'tis with yourself, to-day !" This unlooked-for compliment Through my veins a shiver sent ; And the case of Felix shot, Like an arrow on my thought,— How to listened to Paul's word, Trembling at the truth he heard ; And.delayed with him to reason, Till a more convenient season. My own state I felt to be Felix's infelicity. "Sir," with faltering tongue, I oried, "Much, to-day, I'm occupied: Go thy way but now ; and I Will attend you by and by." So I turned to pass him; and Left my button in his hand. "Rash Man ! will you go ?" he salth : " But a little on is Death. If my company you shun, He will be upon you soon ; I. alone can make him stay From you, a while, away." Ilearing this, I shuddered ; and Proffered Age my trembling hand. Since then, every way and weather, Ile and I go on together; Till that other shadow grim Frees me finally from him— Then immortal youth shall be Mine for all eternity ! THE FACE AT THE WINDOW. It was a woman's face I saw as I drew rein at Cuthbert Hall—a pale, calm, al most proud face, with large creole eyes, and coal black hair looped away from the cheek in heavy, shining folds. I had seen many more beautiful faces during my winters in Philadelphia and Washington—my summers at Cape May, Newport and Nahant ; and, besides, I was expecting to meet at the Hall a certain belle and heiress, a sister-in-law of the friend who had invited me to, his house.— So I. gave only a passing glance to the pale stranger, and then dismounting, rang the bell. 9 servant answered the sum mons, and, conducting me into the library, went to call his master. In a few mo ments the door opened, and the lady whom I had seen at the window came in, with two curly headed children clinging about her. She bade me good morning in a voice sweet as the trill of a lute string, and said, with some embarrassment— ' I am sorry that Mr. and Mrs. Cuth bert are both out riding.' 'Ah! so am I,' was the answer: bit I suppose they will not be long, for, though they, did not expect me to-day, 1 wrote them I should probably be here this week.' Then you are Mr. Vincent 7' Richard Vincent, at your service ; and now introduce yourself.' I-I—l am '—she paused, wound one of the little girl's ringlets about her finger in her confusion, and began again--' I am'— Once more she hesitated, and I re sumed— , I have guessed—you are the gover- She smiled, but the color rose to her very temples. Poor and proud,' I soliloquized.— ' How that blush became her.' this moment we heard the tramp of horses' feet, and .soon saw Cuthbert and his beautiful wife dashing up the broad avenue leading to the mansion. The gov erness hastily left me, and I shortly after saw her talking to my friends in the veran dah. Their brief conference over, my host and hostess entered, and gave me'the cordial welcome which is characteristic of the south. When the greetings had been interchanged, I turned to Ciithbert, and said— Pray, where is Miss Dupont, the charm ing sister-in-law of whom .you spoke ?' He and his wife exchanged significant glances, and 1 continued— , I am impatient to see this paragon— don't keep me in suspense.' I will not. You will meet her at din ner,' The next moment the dressing bell rang, and the host led the way to the guest chamber, where he left me to make my toilet. In those days I was not indifferent to my personal appearance, and with the aid of an attentive servant arrayed my self in the most elegant suit my wardrobe afforded. I wonder if I shall suit the heiress I queried mentally, as I took the last sur vey in the mirror and descended to the dining hall. Near the table sat Cuthbert and his wife, the face. I had seen at the window, and not far from the governess a young lady with a fair complexion, a blooming cheek, the sunniest blue eyes, and a pro fusion of golden hair. I was a connoisseur in ladies' dress at that period, and I took in at a glance her costly India muslin robe, with its frills of Mechlin lace, the splendor of her bracelets, necklace and eardrops, and' the exquisitely wrought golden comb, which looped tip the rich tresses.. Why: was it that my.face wan dered from her to the pale, calm governess, with her band of "riven . heir and her ireat, eloquent eyes, and_ a dress that fell in graceful folds about her.' Blanche,' said my host, allow me to present my old and valued friend—Rich ard Vincent.' The blonde beauty colored and sim pered. He then presented me to the governess. She greeted me with the grace of a queen; and I, as respectfully as if she had been one, said— • We have had the pleasure of meeting before, Cuthbert' As I told you,' murmured the gover ness, I went down to tell him you were absent.' The ceremonies of dinner now began, and as a seat had been assigned me beside Blanche, I tried to play the agreeable ; but I often found that my thoughts wan dered to the pale, silent girl opposite.— When the meal was over, and the ladies had left the table— What do yon think of my sister ?' asked Cuthbert. • She is very beautiful,' I replied. • And have you fallen in love at first sight ?' • If I have I shall not tell you,' I ex claimed, and then we went on chatting in a merry strain. When we adjourned to the,great, cool, luxurious parlor, I found Mrs. Cuthbert and her sister ; but the governess was walking to and fro on the terrace, appa rently absorbed in thought. The usual small talk ensued, and at last, at my re quest, the heiress sat down to the piano, and played and sang with much skill. I had observed a harp in the boudoir adja cent, and begged her to sweep its strings for me. 4 I cannot,' she said ; 4 but Miss Mar guerite can. I will call her.' Then, moving to the window, she ex claimed, imperiously— ' Come, Marguerite, we wish you to play some upon the harp.' The governess hesitated a moment, then came in, and took a seat at the harp. As she sat there, I noticed for the first time the superb proportions. of her figure, and the graceful poise of her head on the state ly neck. But I forgot those when she smote the chords of the harp, and began to sing. Was she an improvisatrice ? I thought she must be, so full of soul was the music she poured forth ; and, when she had concluded, I asked Mrs. Cuthbert whose composition it was. Her own,' she replied, and she never knows what she is going to perform when she commences.' I used no fulsome words of commenda tion to Marguerite, but my eyes must have spoken volumes of approval. That night, when 1 retired to rest, my dreams were not haunted by the heiress, but by the pale face I had seen at the window—the face of Marguerite the governess. The next morning pI was awake at an early hour, and, glancing out, saw Mar guerite gliding across the lawn. I hast ened to join her. Her cheek wore a richer glow, her dark, lustrous eyes were full of light, her lips tremulous with smiles, her white apron was foil of snowy blossoms, and she had wreathed a spray of jessamine amid the blackness of her hair. How we began to talk I scarcely know, but I never was so entertained by any woman 'as by her. I could touch on no subject in literature or art with which she was not familiar, and Madame de Stael might have envied her conversational powers. On the lawn we separated, but when we met at breakfast, in the presence of the Cuthberts and the supercilious heiress, I saw that the old governess look had come back to her face, and she was more reticent than ever. My friend proposed a horseback excur sion to a boiling spring in the neighbor hood, and when our party assembled on the verandah, I noticed with the keenest dis appointment that the governess was ex cluded. I rode at the bridle rein of the fair Blanche, who looked very pretty in the blue habit, and with her velvet hat set coquetishly above her golden tresses, but I found it an effort to interest myself in her comumnplace chit chat. I felt a sense of relief when we dismounted at the Hall, and as soon as I had led my partner in, I bounded up the staircase. On my way to my chamber I passed an open door, and through it caught a glimpse of Marguerite. The two children were busy at their tasks, and she sat patiently correcting a sketch which one of them had made. A portfolio lay beside her, which I doubted not was filled with her own drawings. She heard my step, and, looking up, saw me on the threshold. What !' she exclaimed, have you re turned so soon I I did not expect you for an hour or-two. I hope you have enjoyed yourself.' No, I have not. I was really disap pointed because you did not go.' A faint smile passed over her face. 4 I—l' she muttered ; you can't under stand etiquette, if you suppose a govern ess is to be made an equal.' I felt the blood rush to my brows as I replied— , There are many false notions in society. I am sure Mrs. Cuthbert's governess is the equal of any one here, and as such I regard her.' Her face crimsoned, and for a time there was silence, which I broke by say ing— g Is this the school room 3' Yes.' It looks very cool and pleasant. May I come in 3' I suppose Mrs. Cuthbert would have no objection.' I hope not,' and with these words I moved to the table at which she was sit ting. Does this portfolio belong to you 1' in quired I, laying my hand upon the article in question. She bowed assent, and I resumed— Shall I have the pleasure of exam , . . ming its content?!' • Certainly, sir.' She was calm, grave and quiet ; but when I drew forth the pictures and began to expatiate, then her reticence vanished.. Her eyes lit, her pale cheek glowed, her lips—those mobile lips of hers—parted, and she talked with the enthusiasm of girlhood. "The sketches were indeed won , derfnl, and at last :I said.: 4 lt is a shame for yon, with your genius for piating, to, drudge as a governess.' Again the peculiar smile flitted over her fellurtisae'she inanitired " THAT 00IINTIIT 18 TEI YOST PROSPIiB,OI7B WHEW LLSOB, 0010WIDS TES OBIATIST ILIPAARD:' LANCASTER CITY, PA., TUESDAY MORNING, FEBRUARY 24, 1863. The poor must do what they can, not what they would.' In the afternoon, as I was lounging on aluxurious sofa in the library, the door opened and Marguerite appeared, bat at sight of me she precipately retired. 'Stay ! stay !' cried I, following her. ' No, no, I cannot. I did not dream yon were here. I was lonely, and came down for a book.' 'Come and get it.' With some reluctance she entered and took a splendidly bound copy of Tasso from the shelf. I glanced at it, and said : What—do you read Tasso? 6 A little.' Then take a seat beside me, and we will read together.' She hesitated an instant, and then as sented. The liquid Tuscan sounded very beautiful, syllabled in her accents, and the spell with which the governess bound me deepened with every passing moment. A month wore on, and one night I sat in my chamber holding communication with my own heart. The face I had seen at the window on my arrival—the face that had seemed so pale, so calm and so cold— had since assumed every variety of ex pression. I came hither to woo Blanche, and I had fallen in love with the gover_ ness. Yes, I was in love at last. Mar verite haunted all my sleeping and wak ing dreams. I was musing thus when I heard a tap at my door, and Cuthbert entered. 4 Well, a penny for your thoughts,' he said : lam thinking,' I replied, how mys terious a thing love is.' You are in love, then I Glad of it— glad of it. Blanche will be a happy woman.' 'Tis—'tis not Blanche,' I stammered ; ''tis not Blanche my heart has chosen. I love the governess.' The governness !' said Cuthbert; zounds, man, what do you ipean 4 1 have laid heart, hand and fortune at her feet. If she accepts me, I shall envy nobody in the wide world.' Cuthbert meditated a while ere he re sumed : You must be sincere, Vincent, or you would not marry Marguerite.' Sincere ! God knows I am.' My host gazed at me, and laughed a merry laugh that rang loud and long through the hall. iMy dear fellow,' he began, you are the victim of a little ruse. My sister-in law has had a mortal fear of falling a prey to some fortune-hunter ; and when you, on your arrival, mistook her for the governess, she could not resist the temptation to car ry out the imposture. In the bit of a con fab we had with her on the verandah, she begged us not to undeceive you, and we humored her whim. She coaxed the cousin, who was staying with us, to act the part of the heiress, and as she had taught the children during the absence of their French governess, they were not likely to betray the secret. Blanche Marguerite Dupont, come here and confess !' Dear, dear Richard, I know I can trust you.' Blanche is now my wife ; and, peeping over my shoulder at my manuscript, she bids me tell the worinhe has never re pented the stratagem that won my love. End of Great Men. Happening to cast my eye upon% printed page of miniature portraits, the personages who occupied the four most conspicuous places were Alexander, Hannibal, Cmisar, and Bonapart. I had seen the same unnum bered times before, but never did the same sensation arise in my bosom as my mind hastily glanced over their several histories. Alexander, after having climbed the diz zy heights of his ambition, and with his temples bound in chaplets dipped in the blood of countless nations, looked down upon a conquered world, and wept that there was not another one for him to con quer, set a city on fire, and died in a scene of debauch. Hannibal, after having, to the astonish ment and consternation of Rome, passed the Alps ; after having put to flight the armies of the mistress of the world, and stripped three bushels of gold rings from the fingers of her slaughtered knights, and made her very foundations quake—fled from his country, being hated by those who once exultingly united his name to that of their god, and called him Hannibal —died at last by, poison administered by his own hands, unlamented and unwept, in a foreign land. Caesar, after having conquered eight hundred cities, and dyed his garments in the blood of one million of his foes, after having pursued to death the only rival he had on earth, was miserably assassinated by those he considered his earnest friends, and in that very place, the attainment of which has been his greatest ambition. Bonaparte, whose mandates, kings and popes obeyed, after having filled the earth with the terror of his name, after having deluged it with tears and blood, and cloth ed the world in sackcloth, closed his days in lonely banishment, almost literally exil ed from the world, yet where he could sometimes see his country's banner wav ing over the deep, but which could not or would not bring him aid. Thus four men who, from the peculiar situation of their portraits, seemed to stand as the representatives of all those whom the world call great ; those four, who each in turn, made the earth tremble 'to its very centre by their simple tread, sever ally died—one by intoxication, or, as some suppose, by poison mingled in his wine— , and one in lonely exile. How are the mighty fallen. A GOOD JOK_E.—A few days since an extra train, loaded with jackasses, was transported over the Louisville and New Albany railroad. The telegraph operator at Salem, a boy, getting wind of it, sent a rumor that Governor Morton, of Indiana, and Governor Yates, of Illinois, accompa nied by a large delegation of Republicans, with bands of music, etc., would pass through at a, certain hour. Immense crowds of enthusiastic Republicans repair ed to the depot, bats in hand, ready for the expected cheer. When the train thun dered in, an aged and venerable owner of a pair of fabulous ears stuck his head out of a 'stock car and gave vent to a long ago nizing hee-haw that fairly shook the hills around. Consternation seized the crowd, and in two minutes not a Republican was to be seen within .a square of the depot.— Complaint has been made to:- the Supetin tendant against the •operatorilind -MIS in to" titiit: BARON ROTHSCHILD'S LITTLE MIFF.- An amusing adventure is related as hav ing happene4 to the Bank of England, whiph had committed the great disrespect of refusing to discount a bill of a large amount, draft by Anselm Rothschild, of Frankfort, on Nathan Rothschild, of Lon don. The Bank had haughtily replied that they discounted only their QWII bills, and not those of private persons.' But they had to do rith one stronger than the bank. Private persons ! I will make these gentlemen see what sort of private persons we are !' Three weeks afterward Nathan Rothschild—who had employed the interval in gathering all the £5 notes he could *cure in England and on the continent—presented himself at the bank at the opening of the office. He drew from his pocketbook a £5 note, and they natu rally counted out five sovereigns, at the same time looking quite astonished that the Baron Rothschild should have person ally troubled himself for such a trifle.— The Baron examined one by ones he and put them into a little canvass bag ; then drew out another note, a third, a tenth, a hundreth. He never put the pieces of gold into the bag without scrupu lously examining them, and in some in stances trying them in the balance, as, he said, the law gave him the right to do.' The first pocket-book being emptied, and the first bag full, he passed them to his clerk and received a second, and thus con tinued till the close of the bank. The Baron had employed seven hours to change £21,000. But as he had also nine em ployees of his house engaged in the same manner, it resulted that the,house of Rothe child had drawn £210,000 in gold from the bank, and that he had so occupied the tellers that no other person could change a single note. Everything which bears the stamp of eccentricity has always pleased the English. They were therefore, the first day, very much amused at the little pique of Baron Rothschild. They how ever laughed less when they saw him re turn the next day at the opening of the bank, flanked by his nine clerks, and fol lowed this time by many drays, destined to carry away the specie. They laughed no longer, when the king of the bankers said with ironic simplicity These gentlemen refuse to pay my bills-, I have sworn not to keep theirs. At their leisure—only I no tify them that I have enough to employ them for two months !' For two months! —Eleven millions in gold drawn from the Bank of England, which they have never possessed ! The Bank took alarm.— There was something to be done. The next morning, notice appeared in the jour nals that henceforth the bank would pay Rothschild's bills the same as their own. A FEW HINTS IN GOING TO CHURCH.— It is well to go to church late. By walk ing boldly up the aisle during the first prayer, you attract more attention, and consequently more admiration than by going at any other time. There are some people who will be annoyed at this, but they are of that class of ' old fogies' for whose opinion you will not have the slight- est regard, if you are a young man of spirit. Yon will, of course, wear your brightest colored clothes, and a quality of flash jewelry. If there is a large choir, by all means sing loudly, and try to drown the sounds of the organ. This emulation pleases the singers, and centres the attention of the congregation upon you. Whisper loudly to your companion your comments upon tho dress and appearance of the ladies, and by all means chew tobac co during the whole service. It will look well if you should laugh heartily at whatever pleases you—for in stance, if a deformed person comes in. A small dog, walking up the aisle, will cause you to go into convulsions of laughter, and much sport will be occasioned if you should succeed in kicking him. Allow no chance to escape you that will afford you amusement. Make signs to any acquaint ance you may see on the other side of the church, and even whisper loudly to him. When the service is concluded, and during the benediction, commence to get your hat and gloves ready for a start, and the word amen, be off—don't lose a second— and take a good position at the foot of the stairway. It will be difficult to get into position very soon, for all the ladies will stop in .the aisle to converse upon family matters, &c., which will, of course, make it very difficult for everybody to get out. But persevere, and, when you are in position, let nothing divert your attention from the scenes before you. We forgot to notice the fact that the asile of the church will be completely blockaded, if it should be cold weather, by the ladies standing by the register. If this should be the case, step over the pews on each side. These general rules, if constantly fol lowed, will suggest a great many others of the same kind, which neither time nor place will admit my noticing. How , TO GET ox.—To push on in the crowd, every male or female struggler must use his shoulder. If a better place than yours presents itself beyond your neighbor, elbow him and take it. Look hots a steadily purposed man or woman at a ball or exhibition, wherever there is a competition and a squeeze, gall the best place ; the nearest the sovereign, if bent on kissing the rcyal hand ; the closest to the grand stand, if minded to go to Asco ti ; the best view and hearing of the Rev. Mr., Thnmpington, when all the town is rushing to here the .exciting diyine ; the largest quantity of ice, champagne cold pate, or other his or her favorite flesh-pot, if gluttonously inclined, at a supper whence hundreds of people come empty away. A woman of the world Will marry her daughter and have done with her, get her carriage and be at home and sleep in bed, while a timid mamma has still her girl in nursery, or is beseeching the servants in the cloak-room to look for her shawl, with which some one else had whisked away an hour ago. What a man has to do in society is to assert himself. Is there a good place at table ! Ask 8., ask Mrs.. C., ask everybody you know, your own way ; what matters if you are consid ered obtrusive provided you obtrude.— By pushing steadily, ninety-nine people in a hundred will yield to yon. Only com mend persons, and ytri may bp kretty sure that:a good ,number wiil obey. If ,your neighbor stamp on it, c won't take it aiar .71 , :2 CAN A CARPET BAG EAT 1-•—it was but a day or two ago while traveling upon the cars between this city and Columbus that a train stopped at a small village not a hundred miles off. The conductor cried out, 'Fifteen minutes for dinner!' The passengers, of whom there happen ed to be a large number, rushed into the dining apartment and took the seats at the table, one of them depositing his carpet bag in the chair next to him. At the usu al time the landlord passed around to make his collection, calling- upon the aforesaid passenger for his payment for dinner. How. much I' says the passenger. Eighty cents,' replied the landlord. 'Eighty cents for a dinner? why that is extortionate. No sir, it is not extortionate. Ain't that your carpet bag?' Yes, sir; that is my carpet bag.' W ell, that carpet bag occupies a seat, and of course I must charge for it.' Oh! is that the case Well, here is your 80 cents.' Turning to the carpet bag, the passen ger remarked: Well, Mr. carpet-bag, as you have not had much to eat, suppose we take something,' at the same time open ing its mouth, and turning therein half a ham, a roast chicken, a plate of crackers, and!isundry other articles, amid the roars of laughter of the other paisengers. The prevaling opinion among the pas sengers was that the carpet-bag won.-- Cincinnati Enquirer.

A HAYFIELD ANECIDO f TE.--AD old gen tleman, who was always bragging how folks used to work in his younger days, one day challenged his two sons to pitch on a load of hay, as fast as he could load it. The challenge was accepted, the hay wagon driven round, and the trial commen ced. For some time the old man hold his own very creditably, calling out— , More hay ! more hay !' Thicker ,and faster it came. The old man was nearly covered ; still he kept cry ing— More hay, more hay ! At length, struggling to keep on the top of the disordered and ill-arranged hay, it began first to roll, then to slide, at last off it went from the wagon, and the old man with it. 4 What are you down here for V cried the boys. 4 I came down after hay,' answered the old man stoutly.

" TEM dal" will advocate the principles and policy of the Dethocratlo party, and will, therefore, necessarily favor the restoration of the llnfoti 'as it wee, and defend the Constitution of the Dotted States, and that of this Com monwealth. It will freely and fairly discuss all legitimate subjects of newspaper comment; including, of course, and pre-emt neatly at this time, all questions connected with the existing unhappy condition of our country. It will fearlessly criticise the public acts of public sex saute, and defend the legal and conetitutional rights of in• dividual citizens of sovereign States, against assaults from any quarter. It will seek to awaken the minds of the people to a proper genre of the actual condition of the Republic—to present to them, truthfully, the fearful perils in which we stand as a nation—to exhibit the magnitude of the task that is before them, if they would check our downward progress—and to inspire them with patriotic determination to apply re■ ILIMEDY for our national file. ' In brief, it will, in all things, aim to be the faithful ex ponent of Democratic principles, and to render itself worthy to be an organ of the Democratic party, under whose auspice' our country prospered so long and so well. The restoration of that party—the party of the Constitu tion and the Union—to power, in the legislative and execu tive governmental branches of the States and of the Union, we believe tdibe necessary to avert anarchy, and the utter ruin of the Republic. To contribute to that restoration will be our highest aim. The News, Literary, Commercial, and other departments, will receive due attention, and will be so conducted as to make "Talc des" worthy of the support of the general reader. inr The many difficulties now surrounding an enter. prise of the magnitude of that In which the undersigned are engaged, require them to appeal to the public for a generous support, and ask for "Tax Mix" a liberal patron age and extended circulation • The present state of the preparatory arrangements war rants the expectation, that the first number of the Daily will appear before the close of the coming month, (Febru ary, 1883.)
