WISHING.

sv jowv c. uat.

Of all tha amaeemeats for tha mind, From logic dowa to fishing. There is'nt one that yon eaa find, -,

Sa

vwy cheap as "wishiag!" 4 A choice diversion, too. If we bat rightly aae it, "j *1 Aad not as are are apt ta do,

Pervert il, and abaee it. I wiah—a common wish, ladead—• parse was aomethiag fatter, That I might cheer the child of need.

And not my pride to flatter That I might make oppression reel, As only gold can make it, Aad break the tyrant's rod of steal.

As only gold can break it! I wish that Sympathy aad Love And every hnman passion, That has its origin above,

Woold come, and keep, in fashion, That Scorn, and Jealousy, and Hate, And every base emotion, Were buried fifty fathom* deep

Beneath tho waves of Ocean! I wish that friends were always true, And motives alwsys pure I wish th* good were not so few,

I wiah the bad were fewer I wish that parsons ne'er forgot To heed their pious teaching, I wish that practicing was not

So different from preaching! I wish that modest worth might be Appraised with truth and candor I wish that innocence were free

From treachery and slander I wish that men their vows would mind That women ne'er were rovers I with that wives were always fkind,

And husbands always lovers. I wish—in fine—that joy and mirth, And every good Ideal, May come, erewhile, throughout the earth,

To be the glorious Real Till God shall every creature bless With his supremest blessing, And hope be lost iu happiness,

And wishing be possessing!

"Partner Wanted.**

So say the advertisements every day.—Every body wants a partner, though everybody doesn' advertise for one. Sleeping, silent, or active—ail sorts are "in request."

One man wants a partner with $10,000 auother partner with a capital of bright eyes, fair form lid a clear thousand a year, of undivided affection third, with a good honest heart, isn't particular about the way its "put up," provided he can have the undisputed title thereto. And so it gohs everybody, the world over, Is looking for a partner—waiting for a partuer—sighing for a partner Some are ashamed to confess It others speak right out," and all, as they look, disclose some petty wctknew of their own. One man has a pen chant for a particular fashion of nose he doesu't care what the owner knows, if she only owns a Raman nose.

Another is bewitched with black eyes, csring little what is behind and above them A third wants a form like an hour-glass, and he finds it so ail three marry respectively, eyes, nose, and hour-glass. The eyes grow rheumy dim, and peer queerly over a pair of spectacles for "forty-five Just thiuk of that, forty-five! The nose loses its fair proportions and becomes a receptacle lor

Macaboy" and the hour-glass grows old and craxy. Another man marries a voice and has noth ing left at last but the echo. And worse than all he that marries "a plum" and a woman to boot, makea way with the wealth, and—the woman remains.

Sometimes, but not often—we will give them credit for that—the women are seeking for partners one a pair of whiskers another, six feet in his stockings a third, a house and lot. But the whiskers get frosty, the six feet lean like the tower of Piaa, the house is mortgaged, the mortgage is foreclosed," and nothing remains but the man himself.

And so it goes, and so they all'go.—"Partner wanted."

The Reward of Rebuke. The Rev. Mr. Milburu, who is elected Chaplain the House of Representatives, is only thirty years of age—of decided ability, eloquent in ItU calling, and of most amiable, excellent nnd alofo. character. For some years he haa suffered fiom disease iu hi/ eyes which renders him nearly blind. Some five years ago he was chosen Chaplain of the House, and gave universal aatisfaction. The circumstances of his election at that time, aa we have heard them narrated, were curious ana credible. He was travelling on one of the Western Rivers, in a steamboat—being upon one his preaching Circuits. He was about twenty oue years of age, and seemed younger. A great number of members of Congress were on board, on their way

Washington, and had drawn a good deal of eltenion to Ohemselvee by card-playing, drinking and profanity. Aa Sunday camo round, Mr. Milburn was asked to preach, which he did. In the course of tlte sermon he addressed himself directly the members of Congress, and rebuked thetn the aevereal terms, for the reproach their conduct was calculated to bring upon the country, the eyes of the public al large, and enforced upon them the duty of remembering the responsibilities which rested npon them. He retired lo his room, believing that he had offended them, fearful thai he bad overstepped the bounds of propriety, bnt conscious that be bad done bis duty. Soon afterwards a commitee appointed hjr the members, called upon him, thanked him for the reproofs, solicited his acceptance of a purse of money they had made up, and asked permission lo present his name as a candidate for Chaplain of the House of Representatives. His assent was given and ha was elected.

The Late Fire in New York. The New York Tribune in giving a graphic ac count of tlte late destructive confljgrutiou iu tho Sixth ward of that city, says "The crowd assembled at the fire was a fit sub ject for the most graphic description. The house less wreches flying half naked from their burniug homes in oue place a woman ami two children brought out as they laid in bed, and so tying lor an hour In a nook behind the steps of a house in Elm stree, the brawny firemen, battling the ground with the fiend Inch by luclt, glisteuiitg in the scaly armor in which their lulol.tr, Saint Cro.ton had encased thetn the squalid creaturea, all rags and filth, who came up from Cow Bay, and Robbers' Alley, and Misery Lane, glad of any chance to warm their almost frozen limbs, ami glaring upon the flames with a half smile of joy to think that others were being roudered as wretched aa tlicy the scores of thieves and pickpockets, who sought thiu—as they do every similar occasion—to plunder the sufferers the latest stragglers of Broadway—not a few of whom were so drunk that the slippery streets were too much (or perp*n dicular position these, with hundred* from the theaters, which had just closed, hundreds of resldentfl in the neighborhood, and the half clad women and children who had been driven forth by fire,huddled in door-ways in Pearl street, watching, with anxious faces and shivering forms, the destruction of llteir homes—all these made up a congregation highly picturesque and instructive. The strong light from the fire illuminated the Mtreel* in erery direction, and made the whole neighborhood as bright as mid-day."

Man Cowhipkd sv a Woman.—A rich scene occurred on oue of Cipt. Air's ferry boats at the Newport landlug yesterday moruing, nbout nine o'clock. The ex-Murshni of Newport Mr. Marsh was standing on the forward deck, when the wife of Geo. N. Bedgood, a pilot, who reside, in tho same place, came ou board, and accosted him with—

Mr. Marsh, why did'nt you call and see me a* you promised ou Monday He replied to :h« effect that lie had'lit time, or was loo busy, when she remarked, "Pin prepared to see you, sir," and drawing a cowhide from under her cloak, dealt him ten or twelve severe blows over the face, shoulder* and back, lie made no resistauoe, but left Ihn boat threatening to kill the parson who had told stories about him. Mrs. Bmlgood crossed over to tills side apparently ns unconcerned as if nothing had happened. It appears that she had heard that he had spoken disrsspectlully of herself and others, and had twice appointed a time for him to meet her for a proper explanation. Having lulled to keep his word, she touk this method of reveuge for the Insult.—Cin.

No Danger of Disunion.

Some of onr contemporaries In various parts of the country, are beginning to look rather svl at the prospect of contemplated danger to the Inteprlrily of the Union from the discussion of the Nebraska Question, now before Cougreaa. Their morbid fane tea see nothing but blue ruiu in every cloud of doat that jolly Congressmen, or scheming politicians may fake it into their heads to kick wp at the Capital, not reflecting that ebullitions of redhot fury from Congressional weannda and yelling denunoialiotM of Ihe biood -a nd-thunder-stamp, which make timid f®lks tremble in their shoes, are usually followed by the interchange of innumerable friendly drinks between the apparently bellicose representatives, who puff cig*r smoke into each other's faces, and expectorate floods of tobacco juice around each other's feet, in the most sociable manner imaginable. The flwww nor ted from tha expanded noetrila of ramjimt politicians in such lavish volmnes as to make old women appro* hen.1 a general coufltgration of th" country, lands, leuemonts, here.»U«nvM»*, railroad*, rivirs an I all, are notuiug more t(i,»u iunoiiumt* wili'o-tho-wls^s, that conii)u*t scorch a featlvir even, and aro only calculated to lead focda into the quajrinires of foar and folly.

may look rather weak In tho

knees al times, but there is t|ot a stouter old geutleman on tlte earth. The Union is more aluunch and firm, this l«y, than al any previous period of its existence. Tne occasional storms of passion and sectional animosity that sweep fiercely across the poiltio. horiion. and spend their force ou the towering truiik of the treeofour nationality, only ntske the roots thereof strike deeper into the solid and strengthenIng foundation of popular Hffecliou. The Compromise of I860, under the guidance of a man whose patriotism and genius ever siioue brightest amid tho dark gloom of impending catitstraphe, alloyed the tempest of bltlnr feoliiig, whoae simoon breath gave birth to such uoxious growths as Nashville Conventions and dally Abolition muelings. Since then, three year* of uninterrupted prosperity have been ours, during which time, promiscuous an I friendly intercourse between UiaSantli an I North, the East nnd West, haa been greater lh ill evfer before, and is still increasing.

Iutern.il trade and ooui'iiuiiioatlou, a flu need by common and mutual interest, are fast destroying all lines of divUiou, and uniting extreme seciious into oue great nationality, with one general weal. Such geogyaphiuul terms as "North"and ••South," will either disappear from ou4 vocabulary entirely, or lose all significance, when the Lakes and the Gulf are drawn within a few hours distance of each other, Every rail that Is laid nil a ronl runuiiig towards Mio South and North, forms part of a »y*.
