THE    TlMl'l.
'Twas a morning iu November,
When leaves began to tail.
And the pold north wind was blowing,
And tire Irost shone on the wall ;
Wbeu tbe skies were draped in mourning,
And tire luntral of the year
Swept by in yellow wardrobe,
O'er tire landscape brown and sere ;
That embattled busts were foimiug
In many a gallant build,
On prairie, pbiin, and mountain,
Throughout this inighiy laud.
TtlE   OATI.IKIUN'G.
Over head a thousand banners,
Like meteors were unfurled ;
Under foot, ten thousand columns
Like an earthquake shock the world.
IIu ! cohorts from Penobscott,
Rally 'nealli your mountain pine !
Hoi squadrons from Mt. Holyoke,
Funn linn your bristling lice I
Ye hero sous ot Bunker,
Buckle on your armor bright!
And you. ye brave Green Mountain Boys,
Lock phalanx tor the light!

Doling thunders,
Afar, like r
When the storm king mounts his throne.
I hear the iramp of militóos,
And tremble at the tone 5
The firm gr mod reels beneath them ;
Before them lightnings fly ;
Above them float blight banners,
As stnrs float in the sky.
They come, they cornel    New England,
Prepare to QJeet the shock ;
Rise, like your stormy waters!
Stand, like your granite rock !

Up streams the Yankee peuoo,
And on its cotton fold,
I read : "Huzza lor Lincoln !

Ha! ha! a shout defiant
Cleaves the welkin to its dome.
And rings, as Caesar's watchword
Rang in the ranks of Rome !

And Napoleon on the Rhine !
So charged the Southern Legion,
So charged the Western Band,
To shield our glorious Union,
And save our nativo land!

There's nothing right but what I think,
There's nothing good but meat and drink.
There's nothing to compare with "chink,"
Said the dirty little snob.
And work's the greatest " bore" I know,
And learning's dull, and virtue ''slow,"
So, fast shall be the road I'll go!
Said the dirty little snob ;
Devoid of sense,
An ass intense,
And dirty little snob.
I'd like to know the use of friends,
Unless they serve one's pleasant euda ;'
The best is he who gives or lends,
Said the dirty little snob.
Your learned men are heavy swells,
Your moral youths tremendous sells,
And slang's the only speech that tells,
Said the dirty little snob ;
The simpering slave,
The brainless knave,
And dirty little BUob.
However chaste arid pure she be,
And bright and beautiful to see,
No woman can say ' nay' to me,
Said the dirty little snob.
Is there no husband, son or sire,
To drag this creature through the mire,
And kick it till his toe sbali tire—
The dirty little snob!
The fool and crass,
Conceited ass—
And odious little snob!

Prlnc*: Albert Edtvnrd'a Gcucnlogy.
The pipers for some time have been busy tracing the lineage of the present Prince of Wales;
but none of them have presented it ut once so fully and correctly as the Boston Traveler ia the
statement which follows :
Albert Edward, Prince of Wales, is the eldept
sou of Queen Victoria, who is the daughter of the
Duke of Kent, who was the fourth son of George
III., who was the son of George the II., who waB
the son of George 1., (and of Sophia Dorothea of
Zell, George I. being Elector of Hanover when he
succeeded to the British throne, in 1714, by virtue
of the Act of Settlement,) who was the son of
the Elect roes Sophia of Hanover, (by Einest Augustus, first Elector of Hanover,) who was tbe
youngest daughter of Elizabeth Stuart, (by Frederick V., Elector Palatine, aud "Winter King" of
Bohemia,) who  was the eldest daughter of James
I. of England, (James VI. of Scotland,) who waa
the only Child of Mary Queen of Scots, (hy Henry Stuart, Lord Darnley,) who was the daughter
of James V. of Scotland, (by Mary of Lorraine.)
who was the son of Margaret Tudor, (by James IV.
of Scotland,) who was the eldest daughter of
Henry VII. of England, who was the sou of Margaret Beaufort, (hy Edmond Tudor, Earl of Rich
mond, son of Owen ap Tudor and Katherine Va-
wdio 'was the daughter of"the Diike"of Sornersut.
who was the son of Ihe Earl of Somerset, who was
the son of John of Gaunt, Duke of Lancaster, (by
Katherine of Swynford,) who was the fourth sou
of Edward III., who was the sou of Edward II.,
who was Ihe son of Edward L, who was the son of
Henry III., who was tbe son of John, who was tbe
son of Henry II., who was the son of Matilda, (by
Geoffrey Plantagenet, Count of Anjou,) who was
the daughter of Henry I, who waa the son of
William I., who was the bastard son of Robert the
Devil, Duke of Normanay, (by Arlette, a pretty
girl of humble origin, who lived at Falaise, and
who became the Duke's mistress, hy the advice of
ber uncle, a pious hermit, who lived and died in
the odor of sanctity, but whose opinion was that
the sovereign was always to be obeyed.) It will he
seen that there have been several breaks in the
royal line of England, which is illegitimate in every sense. Henry VIL, tbe victor of Bosworth
Field, may be said to have founded the modern
line, he being the first of Tudors; at.d he was descended from John of Gaunt, Suakspeare's "time-
honored Lancaster," who, by the way, never saw
sixty years ; and the Beauforts, through whom he
was connected with the royal bouse, were tbe consequence ol the Duke of Lancaster's intrigue wiih
Katherine Swynford, the first of their number being a bastard. But then Henry VII. married Kliz■
abetu Plantagenet, daughter oí Edward IV., aud
Edward IV. was a legitimate descendant, iu tbe
female lina, of Lionel, Duke of Clarence, an elder
brother of John of Gaunt ; aud he was the true
King, according to the principles of regular succession. Thus, in Margaret Tudor, Henry VII.'b
eldest daughter, who married James IV. of Scotland, and from whom tbe present Prince of Wales
is descended, were united the blood of York and
Lancaster; and when ber great grandson, James
VI., became King of England, as James I., he had
as legitimate a record as you often can find in a
family of note. But, in 1688-9, the English upset
the main line again, and established revolutionary
sovereigns in the persons of William and Mary of
Orange. When the Act of settlement was passed
in 1701, almost threescore persons were passed
over by Parliament, who bad better claims to the
succession, and the crown was settled on the Elec-
tress Sophia and her descendants, the Electress
being the youngest child of Elizabeth Stuart,
daughter of James I. Indeed, the House of Hai-
over reigns over Great Britain through the trL
umph of principles as revolutionary as those that
placed Napoleon III. on the French throne, th*
difference in the two cases being, that in the one
tbe revolution was effected by tbe aristocracy, and
in the other it was a piece of democratic work ;
and as against kings even an aristocracy Í8 a democracy. No people have shown a less regard illegitimacy than the English, the house of Lancaster, Tudor, Nassau, and Hanover, and the last Stuart sovereign, all'reigning in violation ofthe
principles of regular descent. In 1399, in 1183,
in 1485, in 1689, in 1702. and in 1714, the English
crown was usurped, in the opinion o£ all legitimates.   The descendants of Charles I. and James
II. were set aside by tbe Act ofsettlemect, the
makers of tbat arrangement going back to the
youngest daughter of James I.'a eldest daughter.
Tt would seem as if tbe illegitimacy of William I..
ihe Conqueror, placed the stamp of illegitimacy on
almost the whole of the royalty of England, the
stream partaking of the fountain.   The artiese
Arlette was the fountain; and it is said the word
harlot íb derived from her, and she is often called
Aalette, or HarloUa. It helps to show how
strangely human affairs are influenced by common place things, that if the duke or Normandy
had never seen the tanner's daughter, or she had
had a more virtuous adviser than her reverend un
cle proved, there would have been no William the
Conqueror, no Norman dominion established ill
England, and consequently no England, such as
t'ie world has seen and knows. The whole course
oT events in Christendom, and tbe fortunes ol
millions of men through twenty-four generations,
have been gradually influenced by Ihe simple fact-
that a wicked elderly gentleman, nicknamed "The
Devil!" by hia contemporaries, was Bmitten by
the charms of a pretty girl, and persuaded or purchased her to sin! As some one says, or sinjjs,
" What dire effects from trilling causes spring!"

A Lover Finds Hapi-ixess in his Disai'i-oint-
ment.—A correspondent at a Northern watering
place these reveals bow he once passionately eutilr*
ed and was cured :
"Down in an inner pocket of that valise, there
lies a perfumed little glove ; years have íed since
it was worn, yet the sc;nt of the rose leaves it
once pressed clings to it still; you might turn
each of ita fingers wrong side out and discover
nothing therein—yet that little glove contains the
histoiy of a life—a two-volume romance net in
nonpareil solid. It is a memento of a watering
place; it tells where I met my fute ; anda postscript in the thumb lining tells where our paths
diverged. She was pai-sionatcly fond of music,
andyourcorrespoudeut—though he hadn't thought
of it befere—suddenly discovered he "bad an ear
but no voice." Subsequent events led him to
helieve that his ears were much longer proportionally than his voice was loud. Well, from long to
short-metre the transition to meet her by moonlight was quite natural. Iu the course of one of
those moonlight meetings—it was in June; I remember the month perfectly, aud could tell you
the day were it necessary—I gave her my young
heart's aflections, and a ruby ring and a red rose,
and she—she gave me that glove you see there,
and said she'd always be my friend. She is married now to a small lawyer in the southern part
ot Illinois, and has two small children aud the
There is now in the library of West Point, fold

flag which was first hoisted on the Rio Grande
during the interview of Generals Worth and La

again floating from the National Palace in the
city ot Mexico, on the day when Gen. Worth turned ever tbe city to Gen. La Vega, and the United
States forces finally evacuated the i;lace. Tbe coincidence is quite noteworthy that the same flag
and tbe same General officers were thus conspicuous in both the opening and the closing of the

and it is extremely gratifying that it ia thus preserved.

The Convenience and Advantagk of Poveiht.—
A humorous correspondent of one of the morning
dailies, now at Saratoga, says: "I, for my own
part, am never afraid of having my pockets picked. In fact, I rather wish that seme one would
pick ¡t on halves, it is eo hard for me to find any
money there, that I fully appreciate the difficulties another man would encounter, aud should have
no objection to paying him well for bis trouble,
and then,'as regards a watch. I feel confident that
any man who took it, would be very glad to bring
it back. For he would be taking that which enriched me not, but nude him poor indeed. Keeping the wretched little thing in repair would
break the proprietor of a faro bank or a horse
railroad. It is a lively piece of mechanism for its
size, however, and generally contrives to beat the
old clock down in tbe office an hour or two in tbe
twenty-lour. Next to keeping a wife. I cau't conceive of anythiug more expensive and troublesome than to keep a watch."
A newspaper before us, states th'at at Ihe breaking of the ground for the commencement of the
Lynchburg and Tennessee railroad, at Lynchburg,
a clergyman slowly and solemnly read a manuscript prayer ; at ttíe conclusion of which an old
negro, who bad been resting with one toot on his
spade, and his arm on the handle, looking intently
iu the chaplain's face, straightened himself up. and
remarked very audibly : -'Well, I recon dat's the
first time de Lord's eher been wiit toon the subject of railroads."
A correspondent of the Northwestern Christian
Advocate tells of a Methodist minister, who, having overheard the conversation of bis flock on
secular subjects, just before the Sunday service
began, concluded his opening prayer as follows :
"Aud now, O Father, grant especially to bless us
in our corn interests, and if we should be permitted lo come up on next Fourth Sunday, may we
be abletoreport favorably concerning our poultry,
and all other domestic affairs, and at last bring us
to thyself in heaven.    For CbriBt's sake, Amen."
Some wag proposes thut the Republican papera
should hoist the name of their candidate at the
head of their columns thus :—"For President,
Abraham Lincoln, the Irreproachable 'sucker.'
Such as have virtue always in their mouths,*and
neglect it in practice, are like a harp which omitB
a sound pleasing to others, while itself is insensible ot tbe muBic.
At a down-east revival an old lady prayed fervently for the "young Iambs of the flock." Another lady asked, "Wouldn't it be as well to include
the old-ewes ?   A titter pervaded the meeting.
Clinrncter oí William   Cullei. Bryant.
The New York World, in a late number, Bays !
"William Cullen Bryant ia one of the purest
minded characters, and has one of the moat enviable reputations in the fcoiintry. He deservedly
ranked aa the first of our poetB until he almost
ceased to write in verse, and allowed Longfellow
to climb nearer to the summit of Parnassus, while
he reclined on the bill side, or rather while ho
turned into a more rugged path. The beat energies of his maturer years have been given1 to Iho
discussion of public questions, and among all the
able journalists, hia cotemporarics, there ¡a not
one, nctiVe or retired, living or dead, who haa
succeeded iu securing such universal respect,
while plungine, as Mi\ Bryant always has, into
the thickest of the fight; and vigorously assailing
the opinions and measures of political opponents.
He has never trod the tortuoiia path of vulgar and
crafty politicians; he has never descended tobo
the apologist of abuses in bin own party,; he has
never hung around lobbies or political conventions ; but his whole influence, both aB a man and
a journalist, has been on the side of straightforward, robust honesty in all public as well as in all
private matters. Holding himself aloof from
scheming cuquea, and dealing with great principles, he has had the forceaste to anticipate public
opinion, ot which he has beeu au influential leader. His whole career is a standing contradictiori
to the shallow notion tbat a journalist cannot exert a marked influence in politics, unless he ia
hand and glove with the able rogues and lesser
rogues who pack caucuses and manipulate conventions. The Evening Post, under Mr. ííryant'a
management, has alwnys ranked as one of the
very best newspapers in the country, and the influence it baB exerted has been due not more to the
ability and taste that have presided oVcr ita columns than to its uncompromising honesty and
fearless independence."
First Lesson in Gambling.—Wherever there
are great collections of people, there are alwayí
bad and foolish people among them. It was bo at
Bridgeport, where the State Fair was lately held.
Outside the grounds, behind or within tents or
booths, were many who gambled and led others to'
gamble. Now, it is a very simple thing to gamble ; bo simple, and often it appears so lair, that a
boy is led to take the first Btep before he knows it:
There was behind one of the oyster stands a circle of men and boys ; on the ground aat a degraded and dissipated man, poorly clothed and looking sick and weak. He held in bis hand several
iron rings, before him was aboard with large nails
driven in it, which stood upright. A clean faced,'
bright eyed, handsome little fellow stepped up to
him. He was just such a boy as is prompt at Sab-
stepped up to the man and said :
"What's that for?"
" Give rre a cent and you may pitch one ot
these fiugs, and if it catches over a nail, I'll give
you Six cente."
Tbat seemed fair enoagh ; so the boy banded
him a cent aud took the ring. He stepped back
to a stake, tossed the ring, and it caught on ono
of the nails.
" Will you taka six rings to pitch again or sif
cents?"
"Six cents," wna the answer; and íwó' three
cent pieces were put into his hand, and he stepped off well satisfied with what he had done, and
probably not h'aiing aa idea that he had doné
Wrong.
A¿ gentleman standing near bad watched him,
and now, before he had time to look about and
join his companions, laid hia hand on hia shoulder.
" My lad, that is yóirr firSt lessen in' gambling."
"Gambling, Bir?"
" You staked your penny and got six, did you
not?"
"YeB, I did.-"'
"You did not earn them, and they were noi
given you ; you won them just as gamblers win
money. You have taken tbe fust step in the path ;
that man has gone through it, and you can see the'
end. Now, I advise you to go and give the eil
cents back and ask him for jour penny, aud then
stand square with the world again."
He had hung his head down, but raised itquicít-
ly, and his bright, cpen look, as be said "I'll do
it," will not be forgotten. He ran back and soon
emerged from the ring, looking happier ilian ever. He touched bis cap and bowed pleasantly, as
he ran away to join his comrades.
