Tcne That's what's the Matter.
We're on the road our father trod,
No more the Fpy, with treacherous
nod.
Can rule a despot's cruel rod.
And that's what the matter.
Chorus. That's what's the matter,
Their mobs have had to scatter,
When Andy shot, quacks went to pot
And that's what's the matter.
The men whose slaudeis round us flew,
Who spied, and lied, and mclVol us too,
Can't oo just as thev used to do.
And that's what's the matter.
Casti'e Trovosts, scalawags,
And thieves, who stole the money bags.
Don't want us now, to " hist our Hags,"
And that's what's the matter.
But always to the Union true.
We'll not desert because they do,
llere goes the old Red.. White and Blue,
And that's what's the matter.
"Sustain the President," they sa'd,
" Uphold the Union's drooping head,"
But now they wish they both were dead,
And that's what's the matter.
The " President " sJiaU " he sustained,"
By faith and loyalty unfeigned.
And Shoddy be to Union chained.
And that's what's the matter.
We're for tbe L'nion as before.
The Constitution, and no more.
We swear the oath old Jackson swore.
And that's what's the matter.
The traitorous ' Rump," if need, must feel,
The people's wrath the people's steel,
They shall not harm the Public Weai,
And that's what's the matter.
We've heard Thad's whip in Congress crack,
We've seen the " Niggers " at his back,
He hates the White and loves the Black,
And that's what's the matter.
But don't yen hear the white men shout ?
Old Tha i and Charles are now played out.
And the great Fifteen have got the gout!
And that's what's the matter !
Montgomery Blair,

for he, in company with nil of Lincoln's
' original cabinet, must tako their share of
j't condemnation for its nets of outrage
and oppression. Rut, still history r-houhl
do justice, and, as those newspapers in our
midst are now dumb which, when Mr.
IJIair was Postmaster General and had
patronage to dispense, were praising him,
we mean to try in a modest way to help
history in her duty to Mr. Flair. There
now lies before us an ambitious volume,

abstracted air, and when the conductor ! encroaching upon the shore undermining
came round to demand the tickets, he
seemed to be so absorbed ia his own re-
flections, that it was not until he had been
several times spoken to that he noticed the
conductor, w hom he addressed in French
and inquired what he wanted. The con
ductor explained by signs, the ticket was
charged and the young man returned to
liis icverie.
Fciiing confident that their male com
panion was unable to understand what
they said, the young ladies resumed their
conversation with increased vivacity.
"This young man is very handsome,"
said one.
'Hush, Kate," said the other with a
sort of afhight.
" Why, he doesn't know a word of
Engli.Ji ; we can talk freely."
"Kate, if your mother should hear
you."
"She is too busy with her talk; be
tides I am free to exercise my own opin

"They have no expression."

" Why not, if he looks like this one,
and was spirited, well born and amiable ?
But I can hardly keep from laughing.

again for tickets. Our young man with
extra elaboration, and in elegant English,
sail: "Ah. vou want my ticket. Very

here it is."
The effect was startling. Kate nearly
fainted, but soon recovered under the 'po
lite apologies of the young Frenchman.
They were pleased with each other, and
in a few weeks Kate ratified her good
opinion of the young man, and her will
ingness to marry a Frenchman.
Kate in this instance, was beyond all
question a wise, girl, and she got the best
of him too; for after being made a fool
of by a Frenchman, she also made Lira
make one of himself.
Looking Round. Little Alice, of four
years, talks a good deal about her baby
sister, who is dead. The other night,
while going to bed, she asked :
"Doe3 babv have all the things in Hea

" She has everything she wants there,"
was the reply.
Docs she have a table, and a spoon,
and a little rattle?"
"She has all she wants in Heaven,"
answered mamma.
" Do they have beds in Heaven?" per
sisted the child, springing, at the same
time, into her own little nest.
The mother's attention had been called
to something else, and she replied, ab
sentlv :
" I don't know ; I never was there."
Little Alice sprung up, and gazing
earnestly at her mother, exclaimed:
" Didn't God make you ?"
" Oh, yes."
" And' didn't yen look around you
when you was made?" demanded the
child, in accents of astonishment.

used to relate this story ;
i An Englishman and a Frenchman
I fought a duel, in summer time, and not
; to make the act public, and the better to
i satisfy their consciences in case of the re
! suit proving fatal, they agreed to fight in
I a darkened room. The Englishman, un
! willing to take his antagonist's life, gener
! ouslv fired up the chimney and brought
down the Frenchman.
" When I tell this story in France,"
pleasantly added the relator, " I make tha
Englishman go up the chimnsy."
