Free and easy, but not bold,
Like an apple, ripe and mellow,
Not too young and not too old ;
Half inviting, half repulsive.

There is mischief in her dimple,
There is danger in her eye.
She Las etudiecl human nature ;
She is schooled in all her arts;
She has taken her diploma,
Ae the inistrms of all hearts.
She oan tell the very moment
When to sigh, and when to smile ;

Bat a widow all the while.
Alt you sad ? 'how very serious
Will Ler handsome face become;
Are you angry? she is wretched,
Lonely, friendless, tearful, dumb ;

Silver-sounding,, will ring out,
She can Lure and catch and play you,
As the angler does the trout.

Who have grown so bald and wise,

n4rGirls, let me tell you a stubborn
truth. No yonng woman ever looked
so well to a sensible man, as when
dressed in a neat, plain, modest attire
—without.a single ornament about her

possessed worth in herself, and needed n 0
artificial rigging to enhance her value.

time in cultivating her mind, training
her temper, and cherishing kindness,

of them do in extra dress and ornament
to increase their peisonal charms, she

A Romsulce.
The following fro the London Cbarrt
Journal, reminds : one of a beentiful
poem ofErazA Coux, and provesfomance
to be as rife now b.ti eter :
"Among the presentations of her
Majesty, at ore of the drawing rooms
this season, was a young lady upon her
marriage, and about whose nuptials a
story is current of more than usual in
terest in unromantic times. She is the
daughter of a karonet, holding a dis
tinguished potion. Among the suitors
of this young lady, who is as pretty as
accomplished, was one of very advanced
years; but It was in v&in that all the
allarements consequent upon the pod
session of riches were set forth. 'rho
fair maiden showed herself completely
indifferent to the golden prize that lay
at her feet, and in spite of the strong
recommendation of "papa" it was un
es ita t ingly reject ed. So far, therefore,
everything was perfectly natural and
unronunitie. But it seems that the
gentleman, after his proposals had been
declined, (of course with the usual pro
testations of respect and esteem,) again
sought an interview, and assured the
lady that his attachment was not selfish
—that ho was ready, et any sacrifice, to
do tiny thing that would contribute to
her happiness; and that, if her affections
were fixed on any ono whose wealth
might not be adequate to his good for
tune, he was ready, by a settlement even
to the extent of 100,000 pounds, to place
her happiness in her own power. Such
a proof of disinterested attachment was
perfectly undeniable, and it is said that
the young Inds pondered no much over
it, that, like the recital of thheno's dan
gers, it wrought u complete revolution
of feeling. We do not pretend to know
on what kind of " hint.' the venerable
gentleman spoke again, but speak again
he did, and a itlt so much rfiect that the
happy day was soon named, and the
nuptials in due course gelatinized, and
the fine bride presented on her marriage
to the Queen. The world gives,
its usual generosity, an ahnost fabulous
account to Mr. fortune, but it is
eery well known that one item in it. is
81,500,000 rail way stock, and more than
half of which is 'paying six per cent."
Neck Broken in Kisoing.—Ofr Tuesday
night, a girl of 17, ret.iding in Bridge
gate, Glasgow, minted Catharine Burt,
was brought to the Central Police Of
having, according to the report
given, had her peek fractured in a
titnigglo arising from a young man Lav
ing attempted to kiss her in her own
d ome . No extra violence, it was said,
had been used. Thu injury appears to
be partial dialmontion of one of the ver
tebrae of the neck, causing great diffi
culty in respiration and swallowing,
presumed to be from pressure on the
respiratory nerve. She now lies in a
d.ingertnis state.—X , ,rth Reciac.

The new's from India shows that, as
The London Times expresses it, the

The' brief and almost sybilline

mere glimpses of what is going on in
rebellious India. One single line is
enough : " All the troops of °tide muti

dom of Oude contains several millions
of inhabitants and is the nursery ot'tho
Sepoy army for Bengal. The grasping
policy of the East India Campton)-, in
annexing by a stroke of the pen this
important province, has thus overreach
ed itself and been the prohalde canse of
the piesent mutiny, which threatens
the existence of the Indian Empire,.
and with it portends an eclipse of the
glory, of Englund. Toward. these East

Pompany has been remorsely deceitful.
It has nursed their vices, and-neutral

What - is a "Nigger-Driver?"
Sereral of our Republican .exChunges
have been in high glee over theidea
that Rollins, Know Nothing candidate
for Governor of Missouri, was elected.
When charged With chuckling over a
Know Nothing victory, they replied
that the issue was Emancipation ) that
Rollins was an Einancipationist,Sx. )s.nd
that Stewart, to use the chaste' and ex
pressivelan'ortage of one of them— , the
3feadville Journal—was a "nigger
driVer." In view of this fact, the
question' naturally enggests
what is a " nigger-d river ?" Stewart,
the Democratic candidate, whose eleo
tion is now conceded, never *as tke
owner of a slavein his life, and because
oath was the fact, was reproached spa
the stump by Rollins because, "hcchav
lag the means, and having been so long
a resident of the State, eheald never
nave bottg,ht a nigger.' " In addition
to this,:the St. Louis Intelllyentw; the
leading' Know Nothing paper in the
S'tate, 'and one of the chief sappoirters
of Rolling, contained a letter from him
'before the election, in which octirred
'this sentence :

ba to identify me with the Enuiskei

4k former mustier shown-Abe active part
Wilmot took to assist. the slaveholderk
accomplish their' plans. lh 1144,
Clay and Vim Burets were the two
great parties for nomination for Presi
dent and both came out against the an
nexation'of Texas with slavery. Clay
was , sinsnimously nominated by` the
Whig National Convention. The slave
liPfdrag I.)emixsracy made known that

In Ilivor of Van Buren. but the Distoo
teats saw that they could not elect him,
sea large por:ion of their party would
not support him, so the Democratic;
tional Convention adoptk.d the two-third
'rule, and by doing so defeated Van
Flimen and nominated James K. Polk,
who pledged himself to support .the
oexauou of Texas with slavery. Darid
Wilmot opposed henry Clay and sup
ported James K. Polk and the annexa
tion of Texas with slavery. We ask
our readers to bear in mind the fact
that by the laws of Mexico the slaves
in Texas were free, but their owners
would not submit, and asked the United
States to assist them to defeat the!aws
of their government which regnirkd
them to give up their slaves. Cray 're
fused to pledge himself, if elected Preili
dent, to tonlist Texas, by annexinglier
to the United Statee,,to sustain slavery
in opposition to the laws of her general
government. James ,IL Pair :pledged
himself to do so, and as already swirl,
Wilmot was determined that the Mare
iu Texas should' not hecorrio free, and
labored faithfully to keep thetiii-in
boritlige.
The - election between Clay and :Polk
