At the Spencer House, in Cincinnati, a
: young man mistook I'iccolomini, the Ital-
ian einger, who was passing along a hall,
for his sister whom he had not seen in
two years, and imprinted three or four
kisses upon her lips. Pie. broke away
and ran off. The young man, learning
his mistake, wrote her an apologetie letter.
She said it had frightened her at first, but
now she didn't care, for, said she : "Ze
kecs did me no 'arm indeed it was Dot 60

her." Mr. Van Horn bid against bim
and the price was run up to $4,000, at
which the vessel was knocked down to Mr.

The VCUCl.blo lr. T.ruau Umbt mow
84 years of age, had a family re union last
week, at the residence of his ion, Iter.
Henry Ward Beeeher, in Brooklyn. All
the children were present exeept James,
who is now in China, engaged as Chaplain
to the seamen at Hong Kong. Their
names, in the order of their ages, are as
follows : Miss Catharine Beeeher, of Hart
ford, Conn.; Rev. Wm. Henry Bccchcr,of
North Urookfield, Mass.; Rev. Dr. Edward
Beeeher, of Galcsburg, 111.; Mrs. Mary F.
Perkins, of Hartford, Conn.; Mrs. Harriet
Beeeher Stowe, of Andover, Mass.; Rev.
Henry Ward Beecbcr, of Brooklyn, N.Y.;
Rev. Chas. Beeeher, of Georgetown, Mxss.;
Mrs. Isabella Hooker, of Hartford, Conn;
Rev. Thos. K. Beeeher, of Elmira, X. Y.
The absent son, Rev. James C. Beeeher,
is the youngest of the children. So large
a family gathering, occurring at a period
af tcr the youngest has reached the prime
of life, the original circle at the samo time
remaining so unbroken, is seldom witness
ed in any family.
This large household of rcmirkablo
mental power and influence has lost one
of its brightest stars Rev. William F.
Beeeher, who was accidentally killed by
the discharge of a gun in his own hands,
about 1815, in Cbillicothc, Ohio. All
were or are men and women of uncommon
minds.

This veteran hero and statesman closed, ou

I public career. In 1S14 be was a volun-
teer in Jackson s army iu the Creek war
more than forty years ago a member of
Congress; then Governor of Tenncsseo,
which office be resigned suddenly to take
up his residence among the Indians, and
adopted tueir mode ol liu ; aitorwards in
witn T'ew to revolutionize and annex it
t0 lne United States, which, afterencoun- j
''Dg tno greatest difficulties and over-
coming every obstacle, tie accomplished
thci' purposes, and Texas became a State.
Previous to the annexation, b was Prcsi
dent of Texas, and since that time be has
represented tbe State on the floor of the
U. S. Senate. Iu early life, he was intem
perate, but is now very correct, and tries
to lead a Christian life. Ho retires to

1 saw a row of twenty beams.
From every beam a rope was hung,
In every rope a lover swung.

Ten hud lips said heavenly blue,
Au I leu accused the darker hue.
I nked the matron which she deemed
With fairest light of beauty beamed;
She answered.some Ihought both were fair,

I might have liked her judgineit well,
But, as she spoke, she rung the bell.
And all her girls, nut small nor few.
Came marching iu their eyes were blue,
I asked a maiden ; back she flung
The leeks that 'round her forehead hung,
And turned her eye, a gloriutu one,
Bright as a diamond in the sun,
On me, onlil beneath us rays
I felt ps if my hair would hlaze.
Mte liked all eyes but eyes of green :
She looked at ine w hat did she meau !

Though every limb was cased in mail.
Well, both might make a martyr break
The chain lhat bound him to the stake.
And boih with but a single ray

And both, when balanced, hardly seem
To stir the scales, or rock t!i; beam
But that is dearest, all the while.
