BONNETS its where, peichance, no warbled note is heard, Some slimmer 's evemben fast the daylight fide% • And silence reigns, as around slumbering maids, Whose mindr f by pleasant dreams al ,__one are stirred 4)f happy days and lore; some stranger bird Comes singing homewards to the leafy shades, And all the rest with carols fill the glades, In rivalry; so with no joyous word Was our home vocal, gravely mute were we, And each mind rested like a stagnant sea; When thou, with flowing hair and tender eyes, And ;bellow tones and thousand witcheries, Cattiest, as sleepers by a ray of light, Arousing Us and tilling with delight. A long half-year has passed since I saw thee And many thoughts have dwelt within my brain, But yet the thought of thee would still remain; Aid many paths have since been trod by me, But none can o'er eilace,the memory Of that we trod together, love—we twain! Many fair forms have met my eyes, again And yet again have tried their witchery, Yet cannot cast over me the chains of love; The brow of none thrones intellect like thine, No voice discourses tones so much that move, No scarkling eyes with happy wit so shine, None claim such soul, such love, such worth above All else, a thousand times surpassing mine. NEW PUBLICATIONS larrka Woman. Part Second. By Louisa M. Alcott. Published by Roberts Bros., Boston and for sale by Turner Bros. & Co., and Olenton, Bemsen & Haffelfinger. The second part of this capital delineation of youthful thonghts and feelings will not be spoiled to those Who have devoured the first by the "coming out" of the heroines as young ladies initead'of little girls. The characters have been, admirably maintained by the authoress, and each is, as before, recogniz able for some distinet species of witchery. Of course, the original "Jo"— " with her venturous elimbings, and tumbles, and childish escapes," developed into a very faulty and irresistible young person, is the favorite with the reader. As a Spetinien of the book's occasional tender ness and power, we may extract a little scene at the close of "Beth's" short life: JO Mil) Mail. Often when she awoke, Jo found Beth reading in her well-worn tittle book, heard her singing softly, to beguile the sleepless night, or saw her Jean her face on her hands, whim, slow tears dropped through the transparent fingers; and Jo would lie watching her, with thoughts too deep for tears, feeling that Beth, in her simple. unselfish way, was trying to wean herself from the dear old file, and fl herself for the life to come, by sacred worse of comfort, quiet prayers, and the music she loved so well. Seeing this did more for Jo than the wisest sermons, the saintliest hymns, the most fervent prayers that flay voice could utter; for, with eyes clear by many tears,nnd a heart softened by the tenderest sorrow, she recognized the beauty of her sister's lite—uneventful, unambitious, yet fall of 'the genuine virtues which "smell sweet, and blossom in the dust;" the self-forgetfulness that snakes the humblest on earth remembered soonest in heaven, the true success which is pos sible to all. One night, when Beth looked among the books upon her table, to find something to make her forget the mortal weariness that was almost as hard to bear as pain, as she turned the leaves of her old favorite Pilgrim's Progress, she found a little paper scribbles over in Jo's band. The name catight her eye, and the blurred look of the lines made her sure that tears had fallen on it. "Poor Jo, she's fast asleep,so I won't wake her to ask leave; she shows rue all ber,things, and I don't think She'll mind if I look at thia," , thought Beth, with a glance at her sister, who lay on the tag, with the tongs beside her, ready to wake up the Minnie the log fell apart. "NY WITH Bitting patient in the shadow TIII the blessed light shall come, A serene and saintly presence Banatifiee our troubled home. Earthly, joy's. and hopes, and sorrows, Break like ripples on the strand Of the deep and solemn river Where her willing feet now stand. Oh, my sister, passing from me, Out of human care and strife, Leave me, as a gift, those virtues Which have beautified your life. Dear, bequeath me that great patience Which has power to sustain A cheerful, uncomplaining spirit In its prison-honae of pain. Give me, for I need it sorely, Of that courage, wise and sweet, Which has made the path of duty Green beneath your willing feet. Give me that unselfish nature, That with charity divine Can pardon wrong for love's dear sake— Oh, meek heart, forgive me mine Thus our parting daily loseth filomething of Its bitter pain, And while learning this heart-lesson, My gnat loss becomes my gain. For the touch of grief will render Sly wild nature more serene, Give tolite new aspirations— A new trust In the unseen. Henceforth safe across the river, I shall Fee forever mere A beloved, household spirit Waiticg for me on the shore. Hope and faith, born of my sorrow, Guardian angels shall become, And the sitter gore before me, By their hands shall lead mo home.' Blurred and blotted,fuulty and feeble as the lines were, they brought a look of Inexpressible soplort to Beth's faise,tor her one regret had been that she had done so little; and this seemed to ssinre her that her life had not been useless— that her death would not bring the despair she feared. As she sat with the paper folded between her hands, the charred log fell asunder. Jo started up, revived the blase, and crept to the bedside, toping Beth slept. "Not asleep, but so happy . dear. See, I found this and read it; 1 knew you wouldn't care. Have 1 been all that to you. Jut" she asked, with wistful, humble earnestness. '.'013, Beth, so much, so much!' and Jo's head went down upon the pillow. beside her slater's. "Then I don't feel as if I'd vyastsd my life. I'm not so good as you make mu,bnt I have tried to do right; tind pow, when it's too Isle to begin even 10.do,heiler, it's such a comfort to know that ems one loves use so much, and feels as if I'd helped them." "More than any one In the world, Beth.

They will turn to yon—don't fail them; and if it's nard to work alone, remember that I don't forget you, and that you'll be happier in doing that, than writing splendid books, or seeing all the world; for love is the only thing that we can carry with us when we go, and it makes the cud so easy." "111 try, Beth," and then and there Jo re nounced her old ambition, pledged herself to a new end better one, acknowledging the poverty of other desires, and feeling the blessed solace of a belief in the immortality of love.

A Cbamplon for Smokers. The man who smokes does not reason about it; he does it because he enjoys it, and the habit once formed, he finds it almost as difficult to go without his companion and solace as he would to do without eating or sleeping. Counterblasts against the weed trouble him not; Parton's "coming man" who will not smoke is to him an inhabitant of Utopia, and he has a supreme contempt for the patent medicine man who proposes that he shall take "gentian root" as a sub stitute for his favorite. One draw at his pipe, one puff from his cigar, and all the warnings of those who tell him be is exhausting his vital forces or poisoning his system go floating away in the blue smoke, until they become as shadowy as the smoke itself. "But though tobacco defends itself, and will undoubtedly bold its own in the controversy, it Is plea sant to smokers to know that their danger is not as great as predicted, and ought to be gratifying to those that do not smoke to be relieved of the alarm they have felt for that great aggregation of smoking humanity which is continually destroying and poison ing itself. Therefore, smokers will repice to learn that Dr. W. A. Hammond, a name standing high in the roll of eminent members of the medical profeaton, has contributed to the April number of the North American Re view a paper on "The Sanitary and Physio logical Relations of Tobacco," in which he concludes that there are "no grounds for the apprehensions which have been expressed re lative to the deleterious influence of tobacco, when not used in excess." The paper has been prepared with great care and caution, and embodies the evident convictions of a thorough and scientific investigator of the subject. To test the effect of tobacco per sonally, he—previously not a smoker—ad dicted himself to the habit. The result of these experiments, as he records them, shows that tobacco is not injurious except when need in excess, or under certain abnormal circumstances. During these experiments be carefully took an account of the amount of food taken, &c., and from the whole ex periments concludes: "First—That tobacco does not materially &fleet the excretion of carbonic acid through the lungs. "Second—That it lessens the amount of aqueous vapor given off in respiration. "Third—That it diminishes the amount of he intestine excretion. _ _ "Fourth—That it lessens the quantity of the renal excretion, and the amount of its urea and chlorides. That it increases the amount of free acid, uric acid, and sulphuric and phos phoric acids eliminated thrOrigh the kidneys. "It was ascertained that tobacco in moderation lessons the destruction of the tissues as a whole, and espe cially diminishes the wear and tear .if the nervous system. The question, there fore, scarcely admits of a doubt, that other things being equal, a person can do more mental and physical labor, and with less fatigue, under the moderate use of tobacco than without it. The excessive use may be injurious, just as may be the excessive use of almost any substance taken as food or drink. Another important physiological effect of tobacco is Been in its action upon the stomach, as increasing the secretion of gastric juice,and thus promoting digestion." Tobacco, the Doctor says, enables man to support the effects of hunger with less loss of strength and less bodily and mental fatigue than would otherwise result. it affects the brain and nervous system favorably, and it is for this purpose that it is used. Civilization increases the wear and tear of nerve tissue. We look about us for some means capable of lessening the ill effects which are produced by the labors, the anxieties, the sorrows, the troubles, of which every man .who. keeps up with the world must expect to befir - a large share, and which cannot be altogether avoiied by persons-of -the most-quiet-pursuits. The Doctor adds : "Among the substances which man has been led to use in order to bring about this result, tobacco is ono of the most efficacious, as it is the least harmfuL As a soother to the nervous system, and a promoter of reflection, it acts with a degree of certainty, and yet of mildness, which places it far. above all its congeners.

The greatest men the:world, has ever seen used tobacco, and men, h hoth great and common-place,will continue tonse it till they get something better." To test the effect of tobacco on those who worked among it and who were most likely to be affected by its excessive absorption into the system, Dr. Hammond visited a large tobacco factory in New York city, and tells what he saw and learned there. We quote: "In the snuff-room were two men who had worked, one of them sixteen and the other forty-two years. The latter Mated that he had never taken a dose of medicine in his life. All the operatives were of healthy appear ante. 'The next room visited was in a cellar. Here the snuff is packed in bladders. Three men were employed at this work. The at mosphere was literally laden' with tobacco in fine powder. No miller was ever more thoroughly covered with flour than were these men with tobacco dust. It was in their hair, their eyes, their ears, their mouths, and entered the lungs with every inspiration. One of them had worked seventeen years. He was large, well-formed, and of remarkably healthy appearance. Another was 68 years old, and had been 45 years engaged in the work. His face was covered with tobacco dust, his nostrils were full of it,and even his teeth and gums showed its presence in large quantity. In answer to my inquiries he informed me that he had always enjoyed good health, but occasionally had nervous twitching.s of his face.' It is im possible to conceive of any situation in which greater exposure to the influence of tobacco could exist than in this room." With such surroundings the workmen were found to be healthy, and the Superintendent had never heard of any diseases being in duced in those who work in tobacco fac tories. Dr. Hammond says that tobacco re tards the regressive or destructive metamor phosis of the tissues. "In other words, it enables an individual to save his body-capi tal." He supposes the case of a;ploughman, who has a certain amount of work to do, and has a certain amount of food, but the food is insufficient, and so he loses weight. Tne Doctor says: "Let him smoke two or three pipes of tobacco daily, and he will ascertain that he ceases to, lose weight, though he has not diminished the amount of his labor or in creased the quantity of his food. The to bacco has enabled him to do the same work with a less expenditure of material, and has therefore retarded the destructive metamor phosis of his tissues." Of those who protest so strongly against smoking, Dr. Hammond Bays that they to long to a class of reformers who attack every habit and custom which results from civiliza tion. They appeal to statistics, too, and in their zeal, after a visit to prisons, asylums, &c., conclude that smoking makes paupers, criminals and lunatics. Others find special disease in a smoker and conclude that to bacco is the cause of that disease. On this, the doctor says : "While it is doubtless true that the excessive use of tobacco may ewes siooally give rise to disease, it has never been shown that this substance, when used with becoming moderation, causes any serious derangement of the mental or physical organization." There are people who cannot smoke without the unstringing of their nervous system for days, and there are those who cannot eat strawberries,or shell fish, or'smell roses with out positive sickness. He remarks that those who use tea and coffee obey the same instinct ' that prompts others to smoke, and that both of these beverages have quite as bad a name among superficial observers as tobacco has, and the Doctor adds that it is proved "by the experience of every physician in active prac tice, that there are as many persons to whom tea and coffee are injurious as there are per sons who are harmed by the moderate use of tobaceo."—Baltimore .American. glodern and AlOdiSOVtil Architecture. It is a sad truth that there is something in the solemn aspect of ancient architecture which, in rebuking frivolity and chastening gayety, has become at this time literally re pulsive to a large majority of the population of Europe. Examine the direction which is taken by all the influences of fortune and fancy, wherever they concern themselves with art, and it will be found that the real, earnest effort of the upper classes of European society is to make every place in the world as much like the Champs Elysees of Paris as possible. Wherever the influence of that educated society is felt, the old buildings are relentlessly destroyed; vast hotels like bar racks, and rows of high, square-windowed dwelling houses, thrust themselves forward to conceal the hated - antiquities of the great cities of France and Italy. Gay prome nades, with fountains and statues, prolong themselves along the quays once dedicated to commerce; ball-rooms and theatres rise upon the dust of desecrated chapels,and thrust into darkness the humility of domestic life. And when the formal street, in all its pride of per fumery and confectionery, has successfully consumed its way through the wrecks of historical monuments, and consummated its symmetry in the ruin of all that once pro- moted to reflection or pleaded for regard, the whitened city is praised fur its splendor, and the exulting inhabitante for their patriotism, —patriotism which consists in insulting their fathers with forgetfulness and surrounding their children with temptation. Is this verily the end at which we aim, and will the mission of the age have been then only accomplished when the last castle has fallen from our rocks, the last cloisters filed from our valleys, the last streets in which the dead have dwelt been effaced from our cities, and regenerated society is left in luxu riant possession of towns composed only of bright saloons, overlooking gay parterros i If this be indeed our end, yet why must it be so laboriously accomplished? dud are there no new countries on the earth, as yet uncrowned by thorns of cathedral spires, untormented by the cunscioußnesi of a past ? Must this little Europe—this center of our globe, gilded with the hi )Itl of old battles, and gray with the temples of old pieties—this narrow piece of the world's pavement, worn down by so many pilgrims' feet—be utterly swept and garnished for the masque of the future? Is America not wide enough for the elasticities of our humanity? Asia not rich enough for its pride? or among the quiet meadow lands and solitary hills of the old land, is there not yet room euough for the spreadings of power or the indul gences of magnificence without founding all story upon ruin, and prefacing all progress with obliteration?—John Ruskin. gel,L turd.

Queen Anne. (From "The Stan Who Laughs.. by Victor !logo.] Hand in glove with any one was Queen Anne. She was gay, kindly, almost august. No one of her - good qualities reached up to Victoria; none of her imperfections descended to depravity. Her embonpoint was puffy; her humor was easy; her kindness was Eli timed. She was tenacious and yielding. As a wile, she - ifai unfaithful - and faithful,having favorites to whom she gave up her heart, and a consort for whom she reserved her couch. As a Christian, she was a heretic and - a bigot. She had one beauty, the full neck of a Niobe. The rest of her person was nothing to boast of. She was awkwardly coquettish, and hon estly. Her skin was white and fine; she showed much of it. From her came the fashion of a collar of large pearls fitted close to the neck. She bad a narrow forehead, sensual lips, fleshy cneeks, a protruding eye, short sight. Her short-sightedness extended to her wits. Apart from an occasional out-- burst of joviality almost as - Oppressive as her anger, she lived in a sort of taciturn grumb ling, and of silence In the dumps. Words escaped her, the meaning of which was only to be guessed. She was a compound of good woman and mischievous devil. She liked surprises, which Is thoroughly womanish. Anne was a specimen, hardly rough-hewn, of the universal Eve. To this rough draught had fallen the chance of a throne. She drank. Her husband was a Dane, thorough-bred. Tory, she governed by the Whigs, femi ninely, insanely. She had fits of rage. She would break things. No person more mala droit in handling affairs of state. She let events slip through her fingers. All her policy was cracked. She excelled in bring ing about great catastrophes from tittle causes. When moved by a freak of authority, she used the term "hitting with the poker." She uttered,with an air of profound revery, such phrases as this : "No peer can be cov - ered before the king, except Courcy, Baron Kinsale, peer of Ireland ." She said : "It - would e unjust not to have my husband Lord Admiral, as my father was." And she made George of Denmark High-Admiral of England, and "of all her Majesty's Planta tions" She was in a perpetual perspiration of peevishness. She did not express her thoughts; eke exuded them. In this goose there was something of the sphinx. She had. , no aversion to fun, to the farce that is biting and offensive. If she could have made Apollo humpbacked, it would have been her delight. But she would have loft him a god. Her ideal of benignity was, not to drive any one to desperation, while wearying all the world. She had many a -crabbed word, and for little more would have sworn, like Elizabeth. From time to time .she took from the man's pocket attached to her petticoat a small round box in repougai •silver, on the lid of which was her portrait in profile between the two letters Q. A. (Queen Anne): opened it, and with the tip of her fin ger extracted from it a small quantity of pomatum, with which she reddened her lips. Then, having prepared her mouth,ahe laughed. ;She was excessively fond of the flat ginger bread nuts from Zealand. She was proud of being fat. Anne was popular. England loves female sovereigns. Wherefore? France excludes . them. That is one reason already. Perhaps, after all, there is no other. For English his torians, Elizabeth stands for greatness, Anne for goodness. As you please. Be it so. But there is nothing delicate in these feminine. reigns. The lines av heavily drawn. It is .gross greatness and ; rose goodness. As for their immaculate vi •tue, whereto England -clings, we have nothing to say against it. _Elizabeth is a virgin t simpered by Essex, and .Anne is a spouse coripliCated with Boling broke. -Davtd, the Chief of the Parisian Claqueurs, has amassed quite a fortune in his business. Ho receives, generally, from authors, managers and — au frifilcireirlit tie - curtatir number of tickets, which ho sells again. Auguste, the Chief of the Opera Claque, who died a few years ago, paid for that position eighty thou sand franca and loft his widow a large fortune. All these chiefs of the Claque have well-dis ciplined bands, and without their consent no play and no actor can be successful. Abr. the the moment HiP s ii entrance upon !I the scene, 7 -for it is Riplian:linkle, and not !, Uri Jelfelson, s r—the atidleticilOhas assurance that a Worthy'descendant of Ahe noblest of the old players is before them. He leans I , lightly against a table t , 'big 'disengaged hand holding his gun. standing there he ls in him self the incemation of the lazy, goott-natured, dissipated,"good-forLtiethLug "Dutchman that Irving drew. Preponderance of ; humor is expressed in every feature,' Yeti, in every limb ,1 and motion of the light, supple figure; The kindly, simple, ..inobticitair face, ruddy, smiling, lighted by the tender, humorous blue eyes, which look down Upon' his dress, ela borately copied bit by bit from the etchings of Darley; the lounging;.careless grace of the , figure; the low; musical voice, whose utter ances are "far above singing;" the sweet, rip plinglaughter,--all combine to produce an ' effect which Is rare Wits simplicity and ex cellence, and altogether satisfying. The impersonation is full of what are-tech nically known as points; but the genius of Mr. Jefferson divests them of all "staginess," and they are only such points as the require ments of his art, its passion, humor or dig nity, suggest From the rising of the curtain on the first scene, until its fall on the last, nothing is forced, sensational or unseemly. The remarkable beauty of the performance arises from nothing so much as its entire re , pose and equality. The scene, however, in which the real greatness of the player is shown in his "so potent art," is the last scene of the first act. It is marvelously beautiful in its human ten derness and • dignity. ilere the debauched good-for-nothing, who has squandered life, friends, and fortune, is driven from his home with a scom pitiless as the storm-tilled night without. The. scene undoubtedly owes InuCh to the art bf the • dramatist, who has combined the broadest humor In the begin nirrg with-the deepest pathos at the close. Here there is "zoom and verge enough" for the amplest display of the comedian's Power. And the opportunities are nobly used. His utterance of the memorable words, "Would you drive me out - like a dog?" is 'an' unsur passed expression of power and genius. His sitting with his face turned from the audi ence during his dame's tirade, his stunned, dazed look as he rises, his blind groping from his chair to the table,are all actions conceived in the very noblest spirit of art. In a moment the lazy drunkard, stung into a new existence by the taunts of his vixenish wife, throws off the shell which has encased his better self, and rises to the full stature of his manhood—a man sorely stricken, bat every inch a man. All tokens of debauchery are gone; vanished all traces of the old care less indolence and humor. His tones, vibra ting with the passion that consumes him, are clear and low and sweet—full of denbt that he has heard aright the words of banish ment—full of an awful pain and pity and dismay. And so, with one parting farewell to his child, full of a nameless agony, he goes out Into the storm and darkness. —Atlantic Monthly. How flinch Dlftsy Hang on the Nose of Hanlikome Woman. From Harper's Bazsar..l A man comes to Paris—or Washington, if you please—with lkszife, to so icit a place for himtelf under Government. He is timid and awkward; .she is neither deficient in grace nor self-assurance. "Let me manage this affair," ri3.ys she to her bustrand, "for If you interfera we shill miss it." -- • - "But—but—my dear,they say the Secretary is a great admirer of the sea; and you are so handsome." "What does be care for beauty ?" "Care for it: or' 'not, you are cticulating somewhat on its effects upon him for your success." "I hardly gave it a thought. lam count— ing on our claims and your talenta'e am willing for you to go to'the Secie tary, but you must leave your eaarms at home." "How is that possible?" "Leave it.to me." "Well?; "Just let me daub the tip of your nose with a little red paint each time that you make s visit." Wehave the authority of the relater of this incident for the statement that the woman positively refused. He adds, moreover, that the most virtuous and constant wife living would never have consented thus to deface her beauty. Women set a high value upon good looks, and we hold that they are right, though our admiration of a pretty face may not equal that of Madame de Pompadour, who thought that the greatness of God is more visible in it than in the genius of Newton. A. woman's grace and beauty more than compensate her for all her inferiority in strength to man. History shows that she has a power in gen tleness which even the mightiest conquerors have not been able to resist. Pascal says: "if the nose of (ileopatra had been shorter, the whole face of the world would have been different." He means that if the Queen of Egypt had not been beautiful, she would not have subjected Ctesar by her charms, and thus loosened his grasp of the world. It is not only natural for women to value beauty, but proper for them to cultivate it. It is a ray of divinity thrown for a brief time upon this world that it may lighten its dull ness. It should be esteemed accordingly. From our Late Editions of Yesterday Declines au Appointment. (Special Despatch to the Philadelphia Evening Bulletin.) WASHINGTON, May S.—President Grant again tendered to Gen. Markland, yesterday, the posi tion of Third Assistant Postmaster-General, but the latter, finding that certain Senators were pressing other names upon the President for this appointment, and that it might in some degree cause embarrassment by accepting it, • thanked Gen.
