The Three Fishers,
BV
REV.
Alli.KS  kin'i..^u-;v.
fhrre Fishers went Batting out into the West—
Dot into the West,, as the sun went down ;
Each   thought  of  tbe  woman that  loved him the
best.
And the children stood watching  them out of
the town :
For men muni work, and women must weep,
And tlHT-'s little In earn, and mBiiy te  keep,
Though the barber bar be moauing.
Three wives Bat up in the light house tower,
And tliey trimmed   the  lamp* aa   lhe  Run went
down.
They looked at the squall, and they looked at  tbe
shower.
And tbe night-rack name rolling up ragged and
jjrywn :
But men must work, and women mustweepf
TIlODgh storms b :   sudden and water* deep.
And tlie harbor bar be moaning.
Three corpses lay out
Iu (he morning gle
And the women are v
hands
For thosu who wili
For men ubii -1 wurl
And tbe
on the shining sands,
,m as tbe tide went down ;
atcbing and  wringing tbe
iever come back to the town
, and women must weep,
, the sooner to sleep,
And good-bye to tbe bar and Its moaning.
Dandles-
Dandier'are not good for much, but they are
good for something;. They uncut or keep in eir.
eolation those conversational blank checks or
counli'i's just spoken of which intelieclual capital
its may sometimes, 'kid it worth their while to borrow theni. They are useful, too,in keeping up the
standard uf dress, which, but for them, would de-
terjoiate and become what some old fools would
have it, a mat fer of convenience, and not of taste
and arl. Yes, I like dandies well enough—on one
condition, that they have pluck. I find that lies at
the bottom of. all iruc dandyism. A little boy
dressed up very fine, who puts hia finger in hia
mouth and takes io crying, if other boys makes fun
of him, looks very silly But if he turns very red
in Ihe face, knotty in the fiats, and makes an example of the bigest. of his assailants, throwing off his-
fine Leghorn and bis thiekiy-butrened jacket, if
necessary, to consummate ihe act of justice, his
small toggery takes on the splendors of the crested
helmet tbat irighfeued Aatyaoa. You remember
that the Duke said his dandy officers were hia best
officers. The "Sunday blood," the super-superb
Bartorial equestrian of onr annual Feast day, is not
imposing or dangerous. But such fellows as Bromine!, and P'Ofsay, and Byron, are not to be snubbed, quilt; so easily. Look out for 'Wa main de
fer sous le grant de Below*." A good many powerful and dangerous people have had a decided
dash of dandyism about ihem. There was Alcibi
ados, the " curled sou of jEnias," au accomplished
young man, but what would be called " a awell':
in these days. There was Aristotle, a very dis
tinguished writer, of whom you heard—a philoso
phr!'. rfl short, whom it took centuries to learn—
ceuluries to unlearn, and is now going to take a
generation, or more to learn over again. Kegulai
dandy, he was. So waa Marcus Antonius; and
though he lost, his inline, he phxjvA for big stakes;
and it was not hisdandyi.-m that spoiled his chance.
Petrarch was not to be despised as a scholar or a
poet, but ho was one ofthe same sort. So was Sit
merly, if I am not targetful. Yes. a daudy is good
foi sometliiug as such, and dandies sueh as I
jast speaking of have rocked this planet like a cradle—aye, and left it swinging to this day. Still
I were you, I wouldn't go to the tailor's on the
etceagth of these remarks, and run up a long bii|
which will render pockets a superfluity in you,,
next suit. Wegans, "nasc/tua, uGiifl.''' A man
is barn a dandy.as he is botn a poet. There are
beads that can't wear bats ; there are necks that
cfii'i lit ore-vats ; there are jaws that can't fit out
collars ; (Willis touched this last point ; in one of
hi9 earlier ambiotypes, if I remember rightly :)
there are tobrnures nothing can subdue to the
gracious suavity of elegant langour or stately serenity which belongs to different syles of dandyisu^

Axbcdotk.—Col. Dick Nash telle a rich story
about "axing for her," in hia early dsys. He
w8s deeply smitten wilh the daughter of a wealthy
old skinflint residing in Alabama. The Colonel,
self confident of success, arrayed himself iu his
best suit, bod proceeds to call on tbe " paricnt,"
for the purpose of obtaining his consent to tbe
consummation he devoutly wished Matters had
all >i!i' g gone on smoolhly. Col. Nash had every
ground to hope for success. Finally, a convenient season arrived for him to approach the old
'un ; says the Colonel —
" 'Squire, my business to-day, is to ask you for
your daughters bind-"
''It is. is if? What! yon many my gal ? Look
here, young man, leave my premises instanter(
and if ever yon set foot here again, I'll make my
niggers skin you. Marry my daughter, indeed!
You ,;
Tbe Colonel had left. He saw that the old gentleman was angry. After getting oft' to a safe
place, he thought he would turn and take a last
fond look at the homo of his lost idol—when he
spied the old man busy, with spade in baud, shoveling up lm tracks from the yard and throwing
them ever the fence 1 Col. Nash imagined that he
was an uuwelcome visitor at that house.
A minister, preaching on the subject of misrep-
fcsentation and slander, said : '■ When professors
of religion  so far  degrade  themselves and   their
profession us to altetr.pt to injure others by lying
and misrepresentation, they should remember
tbat, when the devil was disputing witb the archangel about the body of .Moses, the Lord would uot
permit  the archangel  to  bring a  railing accuse.

It. IV. Pepper, Kmi-, on tlit Comet.
These heavenly bodies resemble snakna in being ell liead and tail. They are unlike snakes in
having a very fiery appearance—red snakes, much
to the regret of naturalists, being astonishingly
rare. Comets lend a very irregular life, aud are
ascfuidle and a disgrace to all tbeir conuections.
We bave seen the eagle descend from a great
height, and take the newly acquired means of subsistence from the industrious hiuvk, flying away
from the astonished bird as quickly as he Game.
Before the hawk recovera tbe ordinary ubc of his
senses, the eagle is lost to sight, and not particularly dear to memory. The efforts of the comet
are attended with the same disgraceful success.
Watching his opportunity, he rushes down when
the sun is eo distracted by bin many cares as to
see nothing apart from them ; and taking from
that luminary as much fire wood as would last
him, if frugally used, twice the length of bis natural life, flies away to his own couutry, wasting .n"
credible quantities of light and heat as he goes,
in vulgai and ridiculous display. He bas the unblushing audacity to come back again, after a few
years, sometimes very much shorn of his splendor
and presenting a very ordinary appearance in
deed. When sufficiently near, he repeats his dis-.
grace, and provides himself with a uew tail. Com
eta frequently rise to tha t pitch of vanity and extravagance, that they will u, feelingly sport two,
three, and even six tails at one and the same time.
flaunting them in the veiy face and eyes ofthe injured sun. But justice at last overtakes the offender ; six-tailed comets are never sent out but
once.— Kniekerbocker.
Literary Cuit Cuat.—The fact that very eminent meu are seldom represented, alt-r a ijrmeration
or two, in a direct line, has frequently been observed. Pope, Johnston, Goldsmith, and many
others of that time were unmarried. Edmomi
Burke died, nearly heart-broken, aner he had lost
his only son. Pitt wart a bachelor, but Fox, a
married man had-iio child. Byron was represent
ed only iu the female line, by
'• Ada, sole daughter of his bouse and heart."
Xtoore's children all died before himself.    Scott
left two sous.    One died unmarried, and the oth<
had   no children by  hia union  with   Miss  Jobso
heiress of Lohore. Tlie ouly one of Scott's
children wbo bpd issue was hit eldest daughter
Mrs. Lockhart. Her daughter, wife of Mr. Hope
Scott, died about six weeks ago, leaving a son and
two daughters. One of the daughters died about
a month ago, and the sou. only a year and a half
old, baa died within the last three weeks. One
little girl is now remaining to bear what Sir Waller Scott fondly hoped would be tbe long honors
of the house of Abbot.-ford.
Thackeray's children are daughters. On tbe
other hand, Tom Hood left a son and a daughter ;
bis son, distinguished an au author and artist, is
about taking holy orders in the Church of England, aud lhe daughter, Mrs. Broderip, is the wife
of a clergyman. Disraeli is childless. Dickens,
aa he lately lold the operatives of Coventry, when
thanksng them for a present of a gold watch, has
seven sous.

A Protkbt os Tick,—One ofthe Louisville
leading houses sold a bill of goods to an Indiana
customer on credit. A settlement by note at. four
months was requested, to which Ihe Hoosier debt
r willingly assented. '■ But suppose I don't, pay
this note when it falls due?'-' inquired he. "Then,"
plied the merchant, "your note will be protest-
and your credit di'slioyed V "How much will
t'.at cost ?'■' said Indium. "Dollar and a baif,';
tremulously answered our friend. "Then look
here, old fel'ow, just iucfude that, amouut in the
note, aud pay it or me when you get the nole protested." A leading merchant collapsed aud was

en it is dyed all manner of colors, and woven

such as—wilh all our pains and cost, with all our

of the Aationul Intelligencer, gpeakurg of tbe

Among lhe applicants to the Court for a ticket
admission, was the famous Mr. Vilh-mairj, "Perpetual Secretary of the French Academy.1'' He
was disappointed, and appealed to Mr. Berryer, in
a note remarkable i-.r French guic' and complais-
ince. The advocate it; turn appealed to the Pres-
dent of the Court, who;;- reply has charmed the
Parisians. " To find a ticket tor this purpose at
his hour," he wrote, " is impossible ; but for Ber-
ycr and Villemain one docs the impossible, I
end you the ticket accordingly."

A highly esteemed correspondent, to whom we
are indebted for many favors, bus sent us tbe following :—
" In looking over some  old  papers a short tim«
9-irice, I found a very touching nnd p&theilo'pomg'
written by a young gentleman who was a  school

rather composed, to convince me tbat " there were
those in the world entitled to  as  much   praise as   ,
Br/fon."    I have copied it verbatim.    The subject j S
(you might fail  to discover it) is, a visit to the   "'

Los Angeles street, second house from Coimuer-
al street. Jan. Isf, 1859,
Trie Option puts  (he responstbiliiy  for a  defeat
so disastrous to the public service on the shoutdera '
of the Republicans, who.  it confesses, however, ■
were aided in  tbeir work by some of the Demo-
| crats.    Au abstract of the House proceedings will, ■
it  is contended, fasten this   responsibility   upon
them.    The  Senate  had   amended  tbe bill  as it-'
came  from the House by adding clauses wbich,-
among  other  things,  raised  the   postage   rates.-
This it was denied  that the Senate were  consti-
tutioiialJy  competent to  do,  on  the ground   that
ilie   Senate thereby  presumed lo originate a re-
31)tie measure.
The o'ij' ction took abapfl in a resolution offered -
by Mr. Grow to return  the bill tO' the Senate fbr '
that  reason.    Mr.  Grow   alluded to an arrangement between bim^-lfand Mr, Phelps which must
be carried  out, or he weuld object to faking   (he
appropriation   bill  from  tbe table.    Such an ob--
vectiun  would neve necessitated a motion te   suspend the rules, whieh could not have succeeded.-
Mr. Phelps disavowed the understanding mention*
ed by Mr, Grow. But under this threat, (rom Mr. -
Grow, his resolution was carried. The Union-'
comment!:
Grant that the House was right in thi? construe--
on of the Constitution, they surely had power to '
cure the objection to the bill by simply rejecting
tbe Senate*B amendment. It was not a«eewary in
order that their drjnity should be vindicated to ■
proscribe and strike down the most important
Drench cf the public service by rtiusing to con-'
aider the whole bill-.
The truth is. that the Republicans, under tho >
lend of Mr. Grow, were  bent upon  doing all  tho
mischief in  their power to defeat, if possible, all
ihe   rii'tsroi'iriiuioii   bills : to  stop  tbe wheels   ot
Governmeet-.

Los Angeles, February 5th. 185S.
y. with a view to etnbar
$ass tbe Administration  and a Democratic Senati
rendered itself to be entrapped by tbe flimsy pre
tence of protecting its  constitutional  privileges,
Mr. Mason, of Virginia, would resist the encroachment upon " State rights,7' and  refuse  to let the
second bill from the House be taken up for action-
The Black Republicans of Ihe liouse would resist
the violation of their constitutional   prerogatives,
and refuse to consider the first bill as amended by
the Senate.   Thus  the quarre! proceeded ae if
iiraong a parcel ot silly children until the bill was
lost.    What the result wil! be is not exactly ascertained.   I am assured by several   members of the
Cabinet that they will resist with all their influenc
the calling of an  extra session.    They take th
ground that the  Executive   is   bound   to p
that Congress Intended the cousequences necessarily resulting from its legislation, and as no mo
was appropriated for the Post  Office Department
that Congress wished the mail service ofthe coun
try to be stopped.   Such is the position ofthe Sec
:y ol the Treasury, and lie will   urge that  the
