AN AB•OBIGINAL TALE, DISPLANING h WOE INDIlitlifiMITY. EY A. fIAVAGE.,, Down in the eaFtein part of Lived a Pentbscot brave; Be was the pride of alibis tribe, Who named him floppy Dave; Though of a barbarous race, yet he Was never known to shave. Now, David in his youth, was not In, ignorance kept dark; Beecitin -could read and write aa well .As any parish clerk; End yet his teacher said he would Be cute to , mako his mark.

Be met her in a field of corn, In early autumn days; And when he drat declared his lope, She was all In a maize; She hurried quickly hnme,•beeanso She wasn't used to stays. Unto his cilia wigwam, then, With happy stepB they irent; Be thinking on the morrow's chase, And she on love in tent; And when he bowed to welcome her, She Bawler bean was bent. One morning, David started out, ;With arrows and with bow; And Weeping-Cloud upon hiibunt Resolved with him to go. eaid.sho; VD' there's no other game, Yon'illutve your dear, yon know." But she got lost, as on they sped, , Thiough field and wood and dale, She was not looking for a storm, ~And did' not hear his hail; Elie could not find her lover till Be was upon her trail. :.'turatiddenly behind a tree • Be drew his bow with care; And straightway, with unerring aim, His arrow cleaved the air; He did not hit a rabbit, but Be shot his lady's hair. "A lass!" he cried, "is all my joy To end in woe like this I" But soon he found she was not hurt; She smiled to meet his kiss. "I'm We enough, my dear," she said, "But 'twos an arrow miss." And be resolved that she should be His own, come woe or weal; That soon before the altar they - Their vows of love should seal. Oh, happy time, he thought, when she Would share his Indian meal. Their dream of love was soon dispelled, Ales! by war's alarmE; Tor David joined tbe volunteers From factoiles, shops and farms, And Weeping-Cloud was left, although Accustomed to bare arms. Bbe saw her lover, as the troop Went marching through the street; And the applause of thousands made Her heart with gladness boat; Bhe knew that his small arms would soon Accomplish some great feat. 4.33 d day by day our hero grow In all the soldier graces; • Do shunned the company of those Who went to naughty places; Who drank the sutler's whisky till it made them have wry faces. At last the eve of battle came, That hour eo still and solemn; And David thought upon the foe, And hoped that they should maul 'em; rii have my bullet ln,raid he, Upon the leaded column. He took the letters from his love, And read them o'er and o'er; Ho smiled at her endearing term, "The flower of all the corps!'' "I ougbt to be," he said, "If I Had only ten drills more." She wrote to him of many thoughts Her tenderness would utter; And not a pang of jcalousy Her loving heart. did flutter; She knew that he, a soldier bred, . Would not have any but her. And David served until he joined The victor's joyous shout; They clove the ranks of sinner men, And put them to a rout; The enemy were peppered well, When he was mustered out. The war was o'er—the purpose gained For which the patriots rose; And Sn the early !Spring they turned Their backs upon their toes; Although the Blues were put out,' They hadn't come to blows. And now, on the return of peace, Our lovers' hearts were gay; The marriage was accomplished in The good old fashioned way; And they had many stable joys Upon their bridal day. And David to MB daily toll With chef c IEII heart did go; The Tirkiug run bIIW him employed With plough, or spade, or hoe; The happy wile would follow him— /Re loved to see him Bow. quiet and a peaceful home, You may be sure, was Choirs; And Weeping-Cloud was nappy, raised Above su umuy cares.

The palace was built, and you may judge what it must be like when you are told that the walls alone cost two millions. A large Porte-cocbere forms the corner of the street and the Avenue. Over the door - way are seen two magnificent groups in stone, carved by a master hand. Iu the court of honor you perceive a vast stairway of' white marble, the ornamentation on which is really splendid. Then you penetrate into the apartments. The luxury which there reigns ie unheard-of; the marvels heaped up there cannot be counted.. The very stables are en— chanted, and are, by consequence, far above certain neighboring stabtee (those of the Emperor, on the Qum d'Orsay opposite) too much vaunted in the chronicles of our epoch. Near the platforrif of the first floor, where the rarest flowers are blooming, open two galleries furnished with pictures, curiosities and objects of art. Amone these costly toys you remark, not without surprise, an ele phant's-tusk, a colossal tooth, which has cost thernderate sum of 80,000 francs! The' Prince, after three months' residence in his ,mansion, abandoned it mcontinently and has not reappeared. It would, perhaps, be pushing Jenkinism too far to explain the cause of his determina tion. I prefer to let M. do Guillodet form such suppositions as he may like on the sub ject. The Prince will' sell hie furniture, reserving for himself the works of art enclosed in the galleries. The Queen has paid, they say, 1,600,000 francs for the building. She pro— poses besides to buy the vacant grouuds ad joining the mansion to make a park and gar den. These changes are to be put in nand immediately, but as a year at least will be needed by the workmen to finish the works projected, it will not --be before the end of iSsu that the Queen will find herself installed in her future home. She appears, let us say in passing, to have no further hope of return ing to Spain. During the present year the Queen will occupy the two houses of Baroness Montailleur. The furnishers were to deliver the two buildings completely fur nished by Christmas. Doors of communica tion between the two houses are already pierced. The Queen will take possession of her new lodgment the beginning of January. Theresa's last song is named, from its re rain,'"Tis a chef d'oeuvre." A writer in Figaro has some reminiscences of Gluck: When the Royal Academy- of Music (as the Opera was then called) mounted the Iphi genia in Tauris, Gluck was become old; a little man, angular, lean and dry, his eye burning like a furnace under its thick brows, the mouth angry and mobile, the skin leath ery; all nerves, excitable to excess, irritable, sensitive to the finger—nail, impassioned and violent. It was the artist-temperament in the supreme degree. The parts studied, the work was rehearsed on the stage, and Gluck appeared. He took the leader's stand, ana unchained with a little crisp gesture the furies of the orchestra. The tempest chorus, the imprecation of Thoas,the Recital of Iphigenia, all went well. Mute and abstracted, Gluck beat the time, balancing his head, half pleased and half grumbling after hie fashion. - Then came the dance of the Bey Iliuns and the war dance folio wing. Gluck thereupon watchei, with his kindling eyes upon the actors, but still mutely a storm was gathering in silence,and the li.fht, Ling was ready to leap from his eyes. What was the matter? It was this: Conformably to the traditions of the day, the ballet-master and costumer, all impregnated with the false taste then in vogue, had constructed, the one a dance, the other a dress, of a quite conventional sort of savagery. The Scythiana wore Bilk stockings, and extorted pirouettes and circular figures. They had plenty of tomahawks and spears, hut they waved them gracefully, like modish savages. Gluck had imagined tnem terrible, and they were charming; striking and fero and they were pretty and graceful; they made pigeon--wings and pirouettes, when Gmck desired tiger-leaps and frightful pan tumimes. Thereupon something infernal passed over the lace of Gluck; surprise, grief, rage, an ger, all mingled. He started trom his chair and sent forth a cry so furious that the mu sicians and (lancets paused. Then cursing, swearingj sbisering some outlandish anathema in German-French- Italian, he broke his bow and threw it in fragments on the stage; then he grasped the music and threw it at the beads cf the stupefied orchestra; then, having nothing else to throw, he tore otf his wig and darted it at the ballet. Then, grotesque and superb at once, with one leap he mounted from his platform, bestrode the footlights, precipitated himself on the stage and ran to take the ballet-master by the collar, suffo cated, breathless, gasping, frenzied: •'Wretch!—that a dance of savages, that! Why, robber, scoundrel, look here at what I mean, and what you are to do." And old Gluck, wigless, cravat untied, coat flying,- undertook to dance down the stage; he snatched a hatchet, and with insane motions, grimaces and attitudes, he sketched out some indescribable Pyrrhic frenzy in the way of a dance. At the commencement the spectators laughed; it was indeed grotesque, that old man with a bald head, his face wrin kled, his stiff gestures, his stern expression, executing that extravagant and ferocious salta tion; but at the close they laughed no more, they were grasped. Tats dance of a demo niac spread terror around. Gluck had un veiled the eyes of those dancers by tradition; he revealed to them a now art, the first concep tion in choregraphy of Realism. When old Gluck sat down breathless, they clapped their bands; they understood, and the war dance was corrected in the sense designed by the old musician. ART ITEMS THOMAS BUCHANAN READ A letter from a lady correspondent in Rome says that Thomas Buchanan Read proposes to make a visit to the United States in the spring. He will bring with him his picture of "Sheridan's Ride" a subject he has already made immortal with his pen. He w ill also bring with him several other pic tures for exhibition in this country. Among these is a portrait of the ex Queen of Naples, ordered by her as agift for her sister, the Em press of Austria, which he has Permission to bring with him. Also a portrait of Cardinal Pentini, which has been much admired by connoisseurs in Rome. Mr. Read is about to engage there a second hindio room, loge enough for him to work at the large picture of Sheridan's Ride, intended for the 'Billion League of Philadelphia.

We. have seen a recent sheep-picture by Ifiray C. Sispham, just . delivered to svgen-, lleman in this city. The laUdsChpe is an ad- Vance', and the animals' are' hew and well sketched types, hardly to be seen in America. The shepherd, in blouse, and aabots, with a crook of complicated shape; the meagre, brown sheep; and the spirited. rtgure of the watch-dog, are profiled against the distance under a serene afternoon sky, while every tuft of broom in the foreground sends its pen ciled shadow towards the speetator. ' It id a very pleasant pastoral,lind . Contains more solid study and more good paint than some of the artist's more extended performances. The improvement made by Mr. Milne Ramsey in the atelier of la: Bonnet, at Paris, is steady and encouraging. A couple of new fruit-pieces, with faience, now at Hasaltine's galleries, will bear us out in saying this. Among the curiosity-shops of the Rue Mont martre Mr. Ramsey has only to pick and choose among the most seductive examples of ceramic and goldsmith's art for his com positions, while the solidity added to his style by good instruction in the best of schools is evident in every recent picture, We may now quite deliberately place him at the head of the American painters . of nature rn9ree with whom we are acquainted, while we believe that he will very soon find 'himself painting too well for a mere still life career, and feel impelled to push on into figure art. Who Plbiltadelphla Navy Vaard. The following debate omtheNaval Appropria tion Bill, on Monday last,vvill be of muchlnterest to Philadelphians: The bill, am reported, appro priated $50,000 to the Philadelphia'Nioiry Yard for repairs of all kinds. Mr. Kelley—l move to strikehut $50,000 and insert $25,000. Ido this rbecause Congress has already determined to abandon the Philadelphia navy yard at the earliest practicable day. It has accepted League Island, and directed it to be pre pared for a naval elation. The sum of $25,000 will therefore cover all the necessary repairs at the Philadelphia yard. If $50,000 is appropria ted it will lead to improvements and extension of buildings there. The property now in the navy-yard, although but a small yard, will probably yield • the Gov ernment when sold, as applicable to the new institution, $2,000,000. There Was at the close of the last year a balance ,of $151,000 remaining over for the Philadelphia yard. That balance, I apprehend, ait the Chairman of the committee says, has been expended by this time, and it has been very improperly expended in purchasing tools, many of which are old ones, which the workmen declare they cannot work with. They say they will not undertake a job of work if they are to be held responsible for the Web of time and damage caused by the destruc tion of the stock worked upon. I am, therefore, disposed to cut down the appropriation to the smallest sum that will answer for the present purposes of the yard. There are some things that it is necessary should he kept in repair. There are docks that rimy be removed at veryhttle expense and put up again. There aro other, matters that re quire to be done, and $25,000 will be ample for that purpose. The Secretary of the 'Navy has asked for an appropriation of $lO,OOO for making a survey of League Island and suggesting a plan for its gradual improvement. That appropria tion, I understand from the chairman of the Committee on Appropriations, will come pro perly in the miscellaneous bill. When it comes up 1 shall suppoit it, and I hope daring the next Congress to see an order made for the sale of the Philadelphia yard, and the application of the fund thus creator: to the Improvement of the now and enlarged station. Mr. O'Neill—l concur to some extent In what has been said by my colleague (Mr. Kelley) rela tive to the appropriation for the Philadelphia Navy Yard, but I presume the Chairman of the Committee on Appropriations and the Commit. tee itself has looked very closely into the esti mates of the Secretary of the Navy of the expenditures required at that station. I suppose they know well what is required to be done there, and I have no doubt they have cut down the ap propriations as much as they possibly could tin der the circumstances. Now, sir. I am in favor, as my colleague is, of making an appropriation to survey the territory which has been given by the city of Philadelphia and accepted by the Government for a naval sta tion at League Island, and I am willing to see a laree part 01 this appropriation—say ten or fif teen thousand dollars‘—transferred for that pur pose, and 1 hope that the chairman of the Com mittee on Appropriations will permit that to tie done, leaving thirty-five or forty thousand dol lars for repairs. lam of those who believe in keeping the Government property in rep fir. I also believe that all buildings belonging to the Government should be kept in good order at all times, and not be permitted to go to destruction for want of proper appropriations. While, therefore, I am satisfied that we should not put up new nuildinge in the Philadelphia Navy Yard,s et I do not wish to see the buildings all eady there neglected. It will take, of course, BeVt rol years to carry to completion the work to be done at League Island after it is commenced, which 1 hope will be at an early day; hence I am anxious to see an appropriation for its survey made at once. 1 think it might be put in this bill, although the chairman of the Committee on Appropriations informed me this morello.; that it would come more properly in a miectllancone appropriation bill. My ids a is that we should now get ready to prepare the plans of the docks, buildings, and the various structures necessary for naval purposes, so that the real work of constructing wuat will be when finished the greatest naval station in the world bbUtlld be begun. But 1 say that, unless with the concurrence of the chairman of the Committee on Appropriations in my suggestion for the survey, 1 am not in favor of cutting down this appro priation If it is not more than Is necessary, and which 1 understand is to be applied to repairs of buildings, and not to repairs of vessels. Mr. We the r—l would ash the gentleman if be will be satisfied with an appropriation of $25,000 in this bill. Mr. O'Neill--I will be satisfied with what the Chairman of the Committee on Appropriations will say is absolutely necessary to repair the pre sent buildings, provided he will let an appropria tion be made in this bill to go on with the survey of the League Island Navy Yard. lam perfectly willing to Luke ten or fifteen thonead dollars from the amount proposed for repairs and with it pro ceed with the survey. Mr. Welker--I ask the question because the members representing the Navy Yard at Philo 41phia do not agree as to what they want. Mr. O'Neill—We do agree entirely us to the necessity of an early survey, and as to its great importance to our naval interests. We can do much better with a smaller appropriation to the old yard than we can with delay in commencing the work at League Island. Mr. Welker—l understand that it is proposed to eell this Navy Yard at Philadelphia next year, and I want to ask these gentlemen representing Philadelphia whether the Navy Yard will not stay there without any appropriation for another year, and whether we might not strike out this appro priation entirely? Mr. O'Neill—lt Is not designed to sell the Philadelphia Navy Yard next year. I wish this House in its liberality would give us ouough to build the League Island yard, so that in two or three years we might have it finished, and the Government then might have the benefit of the proceeds of the sule of the territory of the old yard, which would amount to nearly two million dollars.and cover the expense of the coustractien of the new Navy Yard. Mr. Washburne (Illinois)— I move to amend the amendment so as to make the amount $20,- 000. The gentleman from Pennsylvania who last spoke (Mr. O'Neill) referred to the amount which would be satisfactory to me. Now, I pre sume I have lees to do with the amount of ap yy than any other member of the Bense,hecause my views do not correspond with the viewe of the inaiority. In regard to this matter of the appropriation for the Philadelphia Navy Yard, I will say that there was nothing be -fore the Committee on Appropriations in M ission to this League Island Navy Yard excepting a communication asking a email amount for the survey. There was melting before the committee to indicate that the Navy Department prof used to go on there and Jgraphed in Europa, will dclubtletkbe 1n :'demand omo-4tho RAMSEY build b a navy yard.

New-claims were eollected by -the Attorney- General during the year just passed, amounting to $96,746 26 on account of principal sums, and $4,464 89 on account of interest. From appeal cases sud sults of different char acters. 11152,299 72 bave been collected. • One hundred and twenty 7 two suite were renght during the Yeari e " . = I , General nominations were made for State Trea surer.- The election takes_place on Wednesday (to-day). Adjourned. k2:t. Message of Governor Ward. of N. 3. Governor Ward transmitted his atIMULI'MOS• sage to the Legislature of New Jersey on Tnes day.- In it he says that the receipts for the: iscal year ending with lust November were $514,72203, . of which $269,613 46 were derived from transit duties from railroads and canals. $113,38281 from tax on capital of railroads; $31,600 frourdiVi. ' dends and interest; $20,410 95 from Morris Canal Company; $50,000 from State tax. of 1867. ,and $7,664 from taxon foreign 11113nratlee companies' The expenditures were $572,853 06 for the same period, or $58,131 more than the receipts. The State prison, coat $115,093; ptiblic schools, $92,957; the Imate asylum, $59,628; the.Legis• lature, $59,683; the militia, $22,288. The income exceeded the estimate $50,000. The , deficit Ives caused by unusual appropriations. If the ex pendittira, charged to the war fund were charged to the school fund, as should be done, the deficit would be about $120,000. The war debt last No vember was $3,196,100, a decrease of $99,500 in a year. The sinking:fund and State fund balance leave the real debt only $2,121,413 62. !here were $1,063,449 99 .received from the United States on war account last year, and $300,000 from the State tax. Nearly all of the United States debt to New. Jersey is now paid, save a claim for troops during the invasion of Pennsylvania. The indebtedness from the State fund to tee war fund is $93,270 71. The wholepayment reeelved from the United Statei is , $1,238,147 89. The school fund amounts to $560,760 01, and pays $36,204 62, which is paid to the $lOO,OOO di vided among the counties by the School law. The receipts last year_were $138,078, and there is a balance left of $10,382. The agricultural fund of $115,000 yielded $6,924, and was disbursed to Rutgers Scientific Scholl. The 'securities in the slaking fund foot up $976,402 70; against a war' debt of but $2,121,413 62. The school tax last year was more than double that of any former year previous to 1867, and the subsequent increase is nearly double the total increase for the ten years prior to 1866. The total expenditures for public ehools in 1868 were $1,313,358 02. There are 240,570 children between five and eighteen years; arlincrease of 9,852 over last year, A' law is urged by which the school. fund shall be dis tributed only where education is really free, as in a greater part of the schools tuition is charged. The school fund should be increased. The Nor mal school had 250 pupilklast;Jear; the Model School 555 , and the Preparatorsei3chool, 302—0 r 1,116 in all. The Agricultural' College at New Brunswick is in operation. The final report of the GeolOgical survey has been made, arm is flat tering; but the continuance of the survey is asked for. Another year. The agriculture and manufactures of the State are developing equally. The prison system needs reform. Power to pun ieh disorder promptly must be given; but this should not be corporeal punishment. The habit of confining prisoners upon bread and water, In duegeops, and manacling them, has been abol ished. The expenses of the prison should be retrenched. The contract system has been ap• proved in several States, and its failure may be owing to incomplete carrying out rather than to defects In the system itse f. The management of the institution should be dissevered frem politics, and a board of marm ot:Ts appointed; or additional inspectors may be appointed by the Supreme Court. A hones of correction might take the place of a new prison buildirg,and a moral instructor should devote his whole time to his duties. Insane prisoners should be eent to the insane asylum. The loss In the urison.accounts last year was $128,970 34. The estimated expenses the current year are $135,949 85. The prisoners number 578. Their health has been gOOO. The Reform School has done well. It has held 65 boys, and cost $18,656 47. There are 85 State beneficiaries in the asylums of other States. Of the 715 patients in the Lunatic Asylum through the year 77 were discharged recovered and 55 Improved. There have been 2,731 in all. The New Jersey Home for Dis abled Soldiers has aided 573 soldiers and sai lors during the year, sod had 254 under its charge in November. The cost has been $30,- '265 92, and $26'508 60 have - been received tor those chargeable to the National Asylum. The Suers' Children's Home contains 162 children, s approved. The Soldiers' Claim Agency hterminated. The enrolled militia number i,446. The militia system needs revision, and a Moderate appropriation is recommended to each ortaeization. A legislative representation should be made to Washington to lessen the loss of lite and pro perty at Atlantic City, by the washing away of the shore. The value of the lands under water is daily made more apparent. Large sums have been received from late legislative action on this point, and $500,000 have been awarded from lest year's act, "to enable the united railroad and canal companies to increase their depot and terminal facilities," and the companies have paid in their bond for this amount. This subject Is opened at some length by the Governor In relation to the "wharf act," and an act to fix the rights of owners along New York bay, which he did not sign. The results of the late 'election are not considered fair, naturali zation papers having been openly hawked for sale. A registry law is needed to preserve the purity of the polls. There were twenty-one for eign arrivals at Newark last year. Closing with a reference to national affairs, the Governor says that the end of Johnson's admin istration is welcomed on all aides as the end of a government administered without reputation to himself or advantage to the ..coalltrY • He has increased domestic troubles by a policy disloyal in its teachings and its practice, and he closes his career by an Infamous proposition for repudiat ing the public debt. The inauguration of his suc cessor will be welcomed by the whole country, and he will be faithful to the best interests of the country. Finally, New Jersey has a deep interest in the faithful payment of the public debt; but the Gov ernor deems a speedy return to specie payments the best defence of the public credit. This, libe ral protection to all departments of American in dustry, economical expenditures, an honest col lection of revenues, a settlement of disputed questions in the rebellions States, the opening of the Pacific Railway, and the enterprise of our people, will soon place us in advance of any other nation. 110118133110LD RECIPES• lIY BARON _LIRLSSE Veal a la Mareroo is one of the newest ideas in French cookery.

Breast of ,Vearit la Marenyo.—Ctit neatly into three-inch squares the breast of veal: rinse the pieces in cola water, take them oat and drain on a white cloth. Place on the fire a frying-pan with a piece of butter, (the chicken fricasee should be made with oil), let the butter fry, then add the pieces of veal, a few very thin slices of onion, a little,mineed bun; a little sonp-stock, gait and pepper. Fry the Whole together, and when the veal and onions are cooked and of a line color, add a little vinegar and serve. Those who wish a sauce may, when the pieces of veal t are _nearly cooked, dredge, thew with a little flonr, fry a: few moments longer, thpn 'add mare soup, and serve after a short extra cool( lug.—Petzt dual nal.
