DAWKINS'S MISHAP.
Dawkins came home cne night quite late,
And some say "flustered" sadly;
He leaned his back against the grate.
And tcorched his coat right badly.
However, he brushed it up next night,
And unton ball did go: ;
says he : "Ent few can tell, by sight, \
Whether cloth is scorched or no "
But, soon as his first bow ne tried,
terrible rent did yawn, .

THE DELAY.
ET L. D. BARBOUR.
Down the long and narrow street,
In winter snow and summer heat,
I have watched the whole year through, •
Waiting patiently for You;
When the wind blew'cold and bleak, •
Often with my lips and cheek
I have thawed the frost away
From the window all the day,
Caring not for ontwardpain,
Could I meet thy smile again. .
I have thought, when April rain
Pattered on the window pane,
When my listening ear was drowned
In soft music of the sound,
The sweet influence of Spring
Surely his return will bVng ;
But no ring of manly feet
Echoed through the narrow street;
His excuse, I think, will be,
:When again he comes to me:
In‘raY way, a perfect bar,
Was the crowd around the "Srss; , '
Wlibre since I have spell-bound stood,
To buy these clothes, so cheap and good.

TE.NING BULLETIN.
,A.TIYRDA.Y, MARCH 24, 1866
HONORABLE STOCK FON.
It was decided in the Senate, yester
day, that Mr. John P. Stockton is-one of
the "Honorables" of that body. • In fact
Mr. Stockton decided it himself, and
who should know about it better than
he? Grave doubts were entertained as
to 'the legality of his election, and Mr.
Stockton very properly declined to enter
the jury -box, or to sit in judgment upon
his own case, until it was suddenly re
vealed to him that his head was totter
ing on his shoulders, and that he was
about to be retired to the shades of New
Jersey by a tie vote.
Straightway the
instincts of his party were aroused, and
Without a blush, so far as we can gather
from the telegraphic report, he recorded
his vote for 'himself, and became an
"Honorable" itidue form of law.
The abstract question of Mr. Stock
ton's election was a fair ground of differ
ence, and therefore we see that several
goodUnion - Senators showed their inde
pendence by voting in favor of Mr.
Stockton's admission, This liberty of
independent action which we, not un
frequently, see exercised by the Union
side of the house, is not allowed in the
ranks of the Democratic faithful, and
therefore that interesting little body
went as usual in a unit on the party
question. It is a convenient rule of dis
pipline, and saves these honorable gen
tlemen a deal of thinking. We only
make the point involved by the delicate
good taste of Mr. Stockton in voting
himself into the - Senate, where his right
to a seat was, to say the least, so ex
ceedingly doubtful.
BROAD STREET.
The bill for the improvement of Broad
street, by removing the railroad tracks,
has now passed both houses of the Leg
islature, by large taajorities. tThe op
, position to it, although not very ex
. tended, was very, strenuous. But the
wishes of the vast, majority of the peo
ple, and the forthal and earnest demand
of the City Councils, prevailed, and we
thank the two Horses for one of the best
pieces of legislation, in which Philadel
phia is especially concerned, that they
hail) accorded us since the consolidation
act was passed. By the provisions of the
act, ample time is afforded to all coal
dealers, and oth.ers doing business re
quiring freightrailroads to moveto other
and more convenient localities. But by
the end of three years, at farthest, we
expect to see the rails wholly removed,
the pavement very much improved, and
new and splendid public and private
buildings going up all along this mag
imitleent street. Then, all good citizens,
even those who opposed the passage of
the bill, will acknowledge that they
were wrong. and that they, in common
with the rest of the community, are
gainers by the change.
TELE BIirILDING SEASON.
Despite the demand . 'for stores and
dwellings li there are comparatively but
few heavy buildib'g operations in pro
gress. There are several large business
structures in progress or projected, and
some operations are going forward in the
way of improving new sections of the
city by the erection of dwellings; but all
that is doing in this line is in a small
and feeble way, when the wants of the
community in respect to new stores, a d
more numerous houses for the peo e,
are taken into consideration. e
reasons for This condition of things are
obvious. The high cost of material; the
heavy rates of compensation demanded
by mechanics; the uncertainty caused
by constant agitations among working
people concerning wages and the hours
of labor; and last, but 4not least, the
onerous burthens imposed by municipal
taxation being levied almost exclusively
upon real estate, are among the print
cipal reasons why building opeFations
are not fully up to the demands of the
season. There will be but few stores or
dwellings erected this spring as mere in
vestments or for speculative ' purposes.
Capitalists generally believe they can
use their means more profitably in other
channels: the owners of property that
needs modernizing, put off their hrt.
around;
until cheaper times come
around; and where changes are impera,
tively demanded, property holders con
tent themselves with altering their old
buildings instead of demolishiaig them
in toto, TO replacing them vilts new
structures.
It would be well for mechanics to look
at things as they are, and to reflect
whether by resisting the downwardten
dency of prices, as regards their own
wages, they are , not injuring themselves
by bringing about enforced idleness,
keeping up rents to their own directand
indirect disadvantage, and retarding the
prosperity of the community of which
they are membersi These things are
worth thinking !About.
As regards the policy of levying mu
nicipal taxes upon real estate alone, we
have frequently given our opinion and
we have nothing to add to our oft re
peated expressions of a conviction of the
unfairness and injustice of the system.
MR. 'WAVY ON THE WAR p.m'.
The Democratic politicians being
hard up for orators for the Connecticut
campaign, they have sent for Hon.
Richard Vaux, who, somehow or other,
has been quietly dropped by the Fenians.
So he has gone to make speeches in the
nutmeg State, carrying a head filled
with solid chunks of wisdom, and
covered with ambrosial curls. When
he shakes his curls, and lil rls out wis
dom to the nutmegs, there will be Con
sternation in the ranks of the Republi
cans. Speaking of Vaux,his magitificent
style is missing from,,the annual report
of the BOard of Direct Ors of Girard Col.
lege, this year. Mr. Charles E. Lei,
having been elected President, we hay/
a plain, well written, scholarly and sen
sible report,which is refreshing after the
long series of bombastic and senseless
annuals that the' Girard Estate had to
print during the Presidency of Mr.
Vaux. He ought to read these reports
to the Connecticut Democracy. They
would throw as much light on the
reconstruction question as they ever did
on anything else.
Death of General Williams.
The telegraph announces the death of
Brevet Major-General Seth Williams, at his
brother's residence, in Boston. General
Williams was a native of Maine, and gra
duated at West Point in 1842. He served
with much distinction in the Mexican war,
and was brevetted captain for gallant con
duet at Cerro Gordo. , After that war he was
assigned to the Adjutant-General's office,
and upon the breaking out of the rebellion
was appointed Adjutant-General of General
McClellan's staff, a post which he filled with
great ability throughout McClellan's career.
General 'Williams's services were too
valuable to be disnOnsed with, and he re
mained as chief of staff of the army of the
Potomac, through its various mutations
until the close of the war. His last assign
ment was to General Meade's staff in this
Department, but failing health had ,pre
vented his entering'actively upon his new
duties.
General Williams was not only a gallant
and able soldier, but was distinguished for
a modest amiability that made him one of
the most popular officers in the army. An
over-taxed brain has suc,cumbed under the
pressure of protracted official duties, and
another distinguished name is added to the
long list of the, victims' of the war. Hifi
death will be mourned by a host of friends
who had learned to love him for his rare
soldierly and personal qualities. He was
fortyfour years of age at the time of his
death.
Pike's Opera House.
In our hurriedly written note to 'the tele
graphic despatch published in: the BIILLE-
Txx yesterday, concerning the burning of
Pike's Opera House, in Cincinnati, we fell
into, the error of confounding Pike's Opera
House with Smith t Nixon's Hall. The
writer of the note to the despatch has not
been in Cincinnati since the Opera House
was built, and he got the two institutions
mixed up together. He discovered his
error almost as soon as it was made, but it
was too late to correct it.. Such mistakes
will occur in -the best regulated newspaper
.offices.

lode in the Territory. It has been purchased of the

It is deemed unnecessary to refer to the already well

" ' St. Martin's Summer' Is the journal of a residence

Is more concerned, however, with inner experiences

tongue Is powerless to convey. The sights and sounds
