Cuuld I think why be hugged me so
close?
If 1 couldn't, bow could IT could you ?
At eve bo tied under my chin,
My hood with its bright ribbons blue:
Why be gazed in my face, could I toll?
If I couldn't, how could I? could you.?
He told me my eyes were so black,
The brightest of any he knew:
I blushed and looked down; could I
help it?
If I couldn't, bow could I? could you?
He left on my cheek a warm Mrs,
Then off with the lightning's spred
flew;
If I could, I'd have stolded and stampt;
If I couldn't, bow could I? could you?
'Tivas long years ago, and since then
He bas spoken words loving and true;
I only leaned cloBe to his breast,
For bow could I belp it, could you?

A Mvstshy Wo aru credibly inform
mat siuce the recent increase of the
Bros, well, Brown farm, which was n
ly torpedoed, certain mystericus doings
have been going an in that vicinity. A
patch of land has been cleared up; a cellar
bss been dug; pipes have been laid from a
certain spring of water, and rumor hath It
that a vast amount of lumber bus been or
dered nnd that a viuo-embowered cot is to
be built. What these mysterious prepara
tions are for Is it uot chronicled in the bouse
of Elliott and Kinney. 'Twas ever thus
from childhood's hour."
Pennsylvania has produced 28,000,000
barrels of petroleum In ten years; and a
largor quantity has been brought from the

At no
period In tbe previous history of the Erie
Kailway has its business reached the amount
which it is now doing. All passenger trains
fast a d west are loaded down, while
mount of freight offered is taxing the
pucity of Ihe road to its utmost. The
uneral freight superintendent telegrnpbed
from Buffalo yesterday that six hundred car
loads of freight was awaiting' transportation
in that city, and requested that cars to re
move the same bo tent thero at once. Tbe
numerous friends ol the Erie throughout the
country will be glad to hear of its continued
aud iBcreasiug prosperity, and that it Is a
complete success, butu In its business and
its management.
Young ladles should not go rowing with
gentlemen unless they ere capable ol man

water recently, und a dress costing $6 a
yard was completely ruined. Tbe ludy was
drowned.
