KATV DAULING.
Oh. they tell mc thoa art dead. Katy Darling,
That thy smile I raay never more behold,
Did they tell thee I was false, Katy Darling,
Or my love for thee had e'er grown cold ;
Oh, they know not the loving
Of the hearts of Erin's son3.
"When a lova like thine, Katy Darling,
Is the goal to the race he runs.
Oh. hear me. sweet Katy,
For tho wild flowers greet ma. Katy Darling,
And. the Iotb birds are singing on each tree,
Wilt thou never more hear mc, Katy Darling,
Behold, love, I'm waiting for thee.
I'm kneeling bv thy grave, Katy Darling,
This world is all blank world to rce.
Oh. coul J'st thou hear nay wailing. Katy Darling ,
Or think, love. I am sighing for thee,
Oh. me thicks Use stars are keeping,
By their soft and libent light,
And thv heart would bo melting. Ka'.y Darling,
Couli'st thou see thy lone Dermont this night.
Oh. listen, eweet Katy,
For the wild-flowers arc sleeping. Katy Dirling,
And the love birds are nest ling in each tree,
Wilt thou never more hear me. Katy Darling,
Or know, love, I'm kneeling by the.
'Tis cat-less, all kj weeping, Enty Darling,
But I'll rsy that thy spirit bo my guiio,
And that when my life is spent, K:y Dr'ing,
They will lay me down to rest by thy side.
Oh. a Luge great grief I'm bearing,
Though I gearce can heavo a sigh,
And I'il ever be dreaming. Katy Darling,
Of thy love every day till I die.
Farewell then, sweet Katy,
For the wild-Cowers will blossom, Katy Darling.
And the love birds will warble on each tree.
But in heaven I shall meet the, Katy Darling,
For there, love, thou'rt waiting for me.

New Yor.K, October 30, 1854. )
I am not knovra by the cognomen cf 'M"ose.'
nor Jo I answer to the nam;; 'Sykesy' neith
er, as a general thing, do I pronu-na-Ie the
middle of Broadway with ray pantaloons tuck
ed in my boots. Still, by way of i new excite
ment, I lately joined the fire department, and
connected myself with the company of Engine
i7. Bought my uniform, treated the con.pa-r-y,
took up my quarter? in the Lank-room,
where I slept by night iu a bed occupied inthe
daytime by a big yellow dog- first night,
went to bed with ray boots on, ready fur an
alarm. At last it came seized tLs roje with
the rest of the boys ; started ca a run ; tugged,
and toiled till we get Ler into the 11th district,
four miles an 1 a half from home; found the
alarm hal been caused by a barrel cf shavings,
and the con narration Lai extinguished itself;
had to drag her clear Lick; tired most tod--ath;
ii wasn't funny at all; turned in; half an hour,
r..-w alarm: started ataia. Ilese fc-) laid in the
same alley, got our apparatus j iiuiael on the
corner; Cj'nt; 07 victorioi.i: got cur oucLiuc
out, and carri

appraiser and auctioneer ; knocked him down
without any bidder; took water; got our stream
on the fire ; fun ; worked till my arms ached ;
let go to rest ; foreman hit me over the Levi
with a trumpet, and told rae to go ahead; thot
d n, but kept at it: children in the garret;
horrible sltuition; gallant fireman made a
rush up the ladder; battled his way through
the smoke, re-appeared with a child in each
arm, and his pocket full of teaspoons.
Old gentleman from the country; much ex
cited; wanted to help, but didn't exactly know
. how ; he rushed into a fourth story bed-room ;
threw the mirror out of the window ; frantical
ly endeavored to hurl the dressing table after
it; s-.-ize I the coal scuttle, hurriedly put in the
poker, bootjack and a pair of worn out slippers;
carried them down stairs, and deposited them
in a pi ace of safety lour blocks awjy; came
back on a run; into the parlor; took up the door
mat, wrapped up an empty decanter in it, and
transported it safely to the barn of the nearest
neighbor; he kept at work; by dint of heroic
exertions he at various times deposited, piece
by piece, the entire kitchen cooking stove m
the next street, uninjured; and at last, after
knocking the piano to pieces with an axe, in
order to save the lock, and filling his pocket
with the sofa casters, he was seen to make his
final exit from the back yard, with a length of
stovepipe in each hand, the toasting fork
tucked behind his ear, and two dozen muffin
r!nT in hi hut. which was surmounted by a
large-sized frying pan.
During the next week there were several
alarms fire in the big block full of paupers
first man in the building; carried down stairs
in niv arras two helpless, undressed children,
thereby saving their valuable live?; on giving
them to their mother, she, amid a whirlwind
of thanks, imparted the gratifying intelligcr.c
that one was afheted with the measles, and the
other had the Michigan itch". Fire in a board
ing school; dashed up a ladder; tumbled thro
a window; entered a bed-room; smoke so thick
I couldn't see; caught up in my arms a femi
nine specimen in a night gown; got lack to
tlTe" window; ' tried to go down; laddc-r broke
under me; stuck adhesively to the young lady;
and after unexampled exertions, deposited her
safely in the next house, when I discovered
that I had rescued from the devouring ele
ment the only child of the black ccok.
Tire in a storehouse went on the roof; ex
plosion; found myself in somebody's cellar,
with one leg in a soap barrel, and my hair full
of fractured lien's eggs; discovered that I had
been blown over a church, and had the weath
ercock still remaining in the rear of iny demol
ished pantaloons. FireiiL-ir-fiquor store. hose
burst; brandy 'lying loosir,' gin 'convaynient,'
and old Monongoheia absolatly begging to be
pioteeted from furt hex dilution j Croton water
too much for my dellefvte constitution; carried
home on a shutter. Fire In a church-Catholic-little
marble images round the room in niches ;
wall began to totter;" -statues began to fall; St.
Andrew knocked my fire hat over my eyes; St.
Peter threw his whole weight on my big toe, St.
Jerome hit me a clip oyer the head which laid
rae sprawling, when a picture of the Iloly Fam-J
ily fell and covered nle up like a bed quilt.
Fire in a big clothing store next.day our
foreman epcrted a new silk velvet vest, seven
of the men exhibited twelve dollar doeskin
pants, and the black boy who sweeps out the
hunk-rooin and 6cour3 the engine, had a new
hat and a flaming red cravat, presented, as I
heard, by the proprietor of the stock of goods,
as an appreciation of their endeavors to save
his property. I didn't get any new breeches,
on the contrary, lost my new overcoat and got
damaged myself. Tell you how Cre out; cr
der came take up 97;' took up the hose; turn
ed her round; got the boystogetber, and start
ed for home; corner of the street Tlook and
Ladder 100, (Dutch;) Engine 73, (Irish;) Hose
88, (Yankee,) and our own company came in
contact; machines get jammed; polyglot swear
ing by the strength of the companies; got all
mixed up; fight; one 88s men hit foreman of
Hook and Ladder 100 over the kead with a
spanner; 97's engineer clipped one of 73'smen
with a trumpet; 73 retaliated with a paving
ston ; men of all the compnies went in ; resol
ved to 'go in' myself; went in; went out again
as fast as I could with a black eye, three teeth
(indigestible, I have every reason to believe,)
in iny stomach, intermingled with my supper,
my red shirt in carpet rags, and my knuckles
skinned, as if they had been pawned to a Chat
ham, street Jew; got on a hydrant and watched
the fun; fc8s boys whipped everything; 73"s
best man was doubled up like a jack knife by
a dig ia the place where Jonah was; four of
97?s fellows were lying under the machine with
their eyes in mourning; Hook and Lader took
home two-thirds of their company on the
truck; and the last I seen of the foreman he
was lying in the middle of the street, with his
trumpet smashed flat, his hoots under Li 5 head,
and his pockets inside-out. Four policemen
on the opposite corner, saw the whole row.
On the first indication of a fight they pulled their
liatsdown over their cyes,covered uptheir stars,
and slunk down their nearest alley. Got home,
resigned my commission, made my will, lelt
the company my red shirt and fire cap. Seen
enough of fire service; don't regret my experi
ence, but do grieve for my lost teeth, and my
new overcoat. Sorrowing years, sorrwful
years. Q. K. Philander Doestics, P. B.
1 S. Have just met the foreman of 73 he
had on my late lamented overcoat; ain't big
enough to lick him magnanimously conclude
to let him alone.

A Biblical Critic.
The best speciman of original criticism we
have ever heard, was in a stage coach ride to
Eerry Edge. Three of us were talking about
Adam and his fall. The point of discussion
was the apparent impossibility that a perfect
man like Adam coul J commit a sin-
'But he was'nt perfect!' said one of the
three.
'TVas'nt perfect!' we ejaculated in amaze
men. " " t " nj JlllT"
commentator.
'What do you mean?' we asked.
'Well,' answered the authority, 'he was
made perfect, I admit, but he did not stay
pcrfect.'
'How ?'
Whv. waa not one of his ribs removed ? If
he was perfect with alibis ribs, he was not
perfect after losing one, was he ? Say V
Our say was silence. We were convinced
then, that woman was the cause of man's ori
ginal imperfection.
C7An Irishman haing plead guilty to an
indictment, was asked by the judge if he had
anything to say for himself.
The Erinite gave no answer.
"Do you not hear, Patrick, what the cov.i
says to you ?"
Still no answer.
"Are you going to answer, sir?"
Still silent.
"Sheriff, commit that man for contempt of
court."
"Jkay
dumb.
it Tlase your honor, sir, I'm dafe and
I can neither hear nor spake at all
all."
The judge was satisfied.
Nr.cito Prayer. A black minister was
closing up bis prayer, when some white boys
in a corner bad the ui manners to laugh, so
that the sable sui idiant heard them. He had
said but a moment before, very earnest
Eress all dat is human," when the laugh oc
curred, and, commencing again, just before
the "Amen," the pious old negro said: "O,
Lord, we are not m tne habit of adding post
cripts to our prayers, but if de 'spression,
'brcss all dat is human,' won't take in de-
wicked white fe-llers, den we pray d it de Lord
will bress some dat ain't human, also, be
sides."
A.vi cdote of Johnson. Dr. Johnson, trav
elling in the north of Scotl md, could not see
a Louse or tree in riding a great many miles ;
nothing but desolation and barrenness every
where presenting themselves to his view, till
at last he east his eyes on a crow, that was
perched on the stump of an old tree, gnawing
with great violence, and cawing for want of
food, which the doctor observing, could not
help crying out
'Caw, caw, caw, and be d d ! if you will
stay in such a country as this, when you have
wings to fly awav."
CC7""W"hy don't you give a little Greek
and Latin occasionally ?" asked a country dea
con of the uew minister.
""Why, do you understand these langua
ges?" "N'o, but we pay for the best, and we ought
to have it." '
KTMagistrate, to prisoner. "Are you
drunk?"
Prisoner. ''Drunk, your honor ? Oh, no, not
at all. I've only drank two pints of gin, and
four epuarts of beer I never drink much so
early in the morning. "
FIF" The children are so dirty in a place on
Cape Cod, that a mother frequently goes into
the street and washes the faces of half a dozen
childrtn before she finds her own.

UAIIAl'S MAGAZINE. NEW VOL-
receive orders for the New Volume, the editor doea
not know he has any very brilliant ideas to hold
out in large capitals to dazzle people's eyes
Grahem" will bo pretty much what it hefi'beeb
tho l3St volume, with some improvements which
experience suggests. No number will contain less
than 100 pages of matter, and the readers of 4-Gra-bam:'
may rely with great confidence upon tLU
the volume shall contain
OVER TWELVE HUNDRED PAGES !
Of the very best reading matter that capital can
command from ojiginal sources, or taste select from
the vast mass of available material.-
The aim of the editor will be to produce a pub
lication which shoil be valuable in matter, and
choice in taste and style; and he flatters himself,
from the kuown talents of his contributors, that he
will be able to present as many good original ar
ticles to his readers as any publicatjon cf the day.
Ho shall not, however, hesitate to pnli'.ish, from
time to timt, articles from English authors, and
translations from the best German ami French
writers, provided the pieees have never before rp
pc.iredin print in this country. Essays on impor
tant Political Subjects will likewise be inserted,
and criticisms on the Literature of America and
the movements of the Ago. Tho l.eview Depart
ment, in which a large aud liberal spirit of crit
icism wiil always be maintained, will be extended.
For the defence of Aiuei iccv. Diteratnre tho editor
will always be ready ; the maintiinmice of a cor
rect tone in the Magazine, he will, if possible, bo
still more watchful.
EACH NUMIiKR WILL CONTAIN AN KXGKAVINtf FKOil A
TINT STEHL TLATK IN Al'-MTICN TO THE rtviCS
uesks andengravinos or DKviar.LX,
who will supply illii!rnf icits fr-r the text in the
body of the book. The aim of the editor wiil net'
be so much to increase tho number vi" his engrav
ings, as to secure lor tiiose ne puriL-ncs tne ut
most finish the artist can give them ; for common
wood-cuts arc so easily multiplied, that tho most
ir.dilferent publication may outrank in dreary dis
play the choicest periodical.
1 he Editor docs not feel, that with bis own rea
ders, he can increase his el ims to respect by in
sisting on any very great superiority of -Graham'
over several similar publication?, but thinks ho
may safely confide in their friendship for the
Magazine, and in its past management for iis pre
sent list, and such increase as naturally grows out
if an extended cireulnt'cu in a eoutitry where
readers are multiplying so rapidly.
Of the January number the first adition will be
30.001) copies, and the editor trusts his old friends
will be so prompt in renewing old clubs, and ex
tending the list among new ones, that th fret
-edition shall bo but hatf 03 what the year will ul
timately establish, as the pernmr-ert circulation of
