Mr. Slidell with the EmperorLords Brougham and Pnlin-eiNi- on

on the War Distress In-

creasing Apprehensions of Warwith Amenta An ImpressibleCorrespondent W hers are Re-serves? English Politics Canada.

CorrespondenceMf the New York T me'.London, Tu6dny, July 1, 1803. The in-

tensity of the feeliDg of anxiety respectingthe progress of the war ia America ieitover and scarcely less in France,cat Daruiy De less tuau tctit txpuiieuceu inNew York. It is the one great, absorbingsubject of conversation. John Bull evende rts trom his customary unsocial naD-it- o",

and talks with his neighbor in a rail-way carriage or ouiuibus on this dreadiulwar.

Aud he likes it less and less. He growsnitre and more im patient. lie thinks thatsomething ought to be done. If the Con-federates are beaten he never soys rebels

he loots glum r.nd sneaks savagely. Ifthe prospects of Gen McUltllan seem

he is in good spirits. If thereis news of some Southern success, he is de-

lighted. The dtsne for intervention cer-tainly increases.

As to the prospect, it depends upon theevents of the present campaign. Englandeau not act alone, aud her hands are tied bya'l her possessions, while things remain asat present. Fiance is engaged in Mexico,and if the settlement of the Governmentof that country is to be the preliminary ofAraeiicau independence, there is uo hurry.Still, it is certain that the Confederates inLondon are looking hopefully to Pjris, audit is said that Mr. Slidell, within a few dajshas beeu accorded a long and confidentialinterview with the Emperor at the HotelPersiguy. Perhaps it was about the

The nervous desire that something maybe done breaks out every lew days iu Par-liament. Last night Lord Brougham rosein the II use of Lords and denouueed thewar bitieriy as he only eau. He had beenthe lriend of Am-ri- ca he had been calledthe partisan of Jefferson and the AttorneyGenera! ot Madison; but all the evils andhorrors .of slavery were not so bad as thi3war. He wanted it put a stop to but howit was to be done his Lordship did not in-

form us. His speech was a scolding, whichwill increase the public feeling against theNorth, and lessen Abolition sympathy.

In the House, Lord Palmerston, iu an-

swer to au inquiry, said the Governments ofEngland and France were most anxious todo something, but they could not see thatthe time had come for eU'ectual interfer-ence. But the mere fact of the subjectbeing brought up so often, shows the Plateof feeling. Lords and Commons are wait-ing tor the great battle before Richmond.England aud France are wailing.

The cotton famine aud distress growvisibly. The stock at Liverpool dwindlesday by day. Supply there is none, acdprospect very little. All the talk aboutIndia, E2ypt, Tacaica or the Fiji Islands, isfutile. The Government wiil not protectcotton culture there, because it is commit-ted to. free trade; aud capitalists will notembark in an enterprise which the end ofthe American war', by the submission of theSouth or otherwise, will ruin. , So there isno help or hope. The war must be ended,or Laucashhe mu t starve aud England betuini d. It is my conviction that Parlia-ment caiino; put off the consideration oftk" criBis.a month longer.

cession sympathizers in New sij-,-

'lo.v spirits, we seo-i- t in the'Timcs' letter.We know when tin y are rejoicing. A weekago the latest news left them in despair.The last steamer brought indications of re-viving hope. -

Some of the accounts by the last steamer,which brought New York papers to the 17thof June, indicate a longer protraction tothe siege of Kichmo'-- than previous advi-ces had indicated. If they can be reliedupon, the losses of General McClellan'sarmy have been severe, and his force canscarcely be sufficient for the work it is ex-pected to accomplish. Where are the re-serves of the American army? Losses bybattles, atd greater losses by sickness, arewasting the army, which is distributedover a vast area, while the Confederatesconcentrate for the defense of Richmond.I see no body of reserves from whichfifty thousand mea can be 6ent to in-sure success or repair disaster. Is it inaccordance with military science to riskiverything, or risk so much upon a singleGeneral or a single army corps? Nothingbut success, which may disarm any criti-cism, cu justify such tactics. One cannot help thinking of what would be theresult if General McClellan was driven outof the James river valley, as General Bankswas driven out of the Shenandoah. Butthese are useless speculations anywhere,and may seem ridiculous, written, as theymay be, alter the great event has been de-cided.

If the patriotic people of the North havebeen disappointed at the feeling of Eng-land about the war, none, probably, are somuch so as the ultra Abolitionists. Theyexpected sympathy from the well knowuabolition sentiment of Ent find, but I doubtif there is any part of America, north ofMason and D'xon's, where they have less.The feeling of the influenzal classes hereis eminently conservative. The party ofSumner and Greely has very little support,aud that not of a kind topuffthemup withvanity. The party that seeks to restorethe Union and Constitution as they werebefore secession, is respected, though thereare not many who believe, eveu now. thatit can ever be accomplished.

The state of politics here is one of simplestagnation. The Government is not strongenough to venture upon any bold action;the Opposition is piralyzed by a want ofunity among, or ot confidence in its leaders;the financial condilion is perplexing in thepresent and discouraging in prospective;tue authorities are ull at sea with the Navy,and all ashore with their fortifications, or,if you prefer, vice versa. If Lord Derbywere enterprising, if D'Israeli could in-

spire fis much confidence in his integrityas admiral ion for his genius, if Mr. Cow-pe- r

would pull in traces, il the prospectwn3 pi. asant for any administration, Ibhould expect a change. As it is, Palmer-sto- n

is the man for the crisis, when nothingis needed but a masterly inactivity, aud aMicawberish waiting for something to turnup.

A word of Canada. This province, du-ring the Trent excitenisnt, was in high fa-

vor; but it has lost prestige, that in spiteof the war and the prospec; of high taxes,more emigrants go to the United Statesthan to til the British colonies, whileCanada receives a small proportion. WhenCanada was England's most importantcolony it was different. Now people talkmore of Australia, Britih Columbia, NewZeland, Tasmania and Port Natal ihau ofCanada. Were it not a matter of pride toprotect a dependent province, and preservethe integrity of the Empire, you mightabsorb the few hundred thousand peoplenorth of you and welcome. Few herewould miss, or care for Canada. It is noteven an eligible country for emigratinggovernesses, for whom there is a fair tomiddling demand in other directions itbeiDg understood that the amiable crea-tures shall stand ready to marry at the firtttligible offer, to make sure ot pupils.

The Morgan Raid-Cji- tth ana At.tacked A Passenger Train HnrelyEscapes Captain Glass ReportedKilled and Ilistiuii Captured Au-oth-

Bridge Burned Kebtls Me-nacing Falmouth A Rangof Guer-rillas at Verona, 18 Miles fromCovington.

Frcra the Cbclnnatl Gazette.The messenger of tbe Adams Express

Company, who left this city yesterdaymorning, on tbe Covington road, for Lex-ington, "returned last cveuicg, ar.d givesus the following statement:

The train reached Cynlhiuna at 10 o'clockyesterday morning, aod was detained byorder of Col. Lamlraui, commar.diug thatpoint, until 4 o'clock yesterday autrnoorj.Captain Gliss, with his cannon, was onboard this train. About i o'clock threebattalions of cavalry were seen approach-ing from the cast, west aud center of thetown, and one of these parties fired on thetrain. Some sixteen shots struck the ex-

press car. The messenser laid down onthe floor and protected himself behind hissafe.

Captain Glass at once hal hi? cannon,ammunition and horses disembarked andhe started over to the west side of the townwhere Co!. Landram had his infiutry pjw.ed.The messenger doi s not believe Capi. Ginsiwas killed, although it. was so vrer ted.The train was immediately backed downand started for Covington. When it reachedBoyd s station, me conductor teirgrapueufor orders, andhe was instructed to returnto Covington. As the traiu left Boyd's itwas fired on by a party in ambush.

The following is another version of theaffair.

At four o'clock yesterday afternoon, Mr.Fulton, Superintendent of the KentuckyCentral Railroad, was advised by a dispatchfrom Lieut. Col. Landram, commandiug atCyuthiana, that Morgan, with a force esti-mated at fifteen hundiedmen, was betweenthat place and Paris, meuacing both towns.About an hour later, the operator at a

telegraphed that Morgin's men hadmade a furious attack upon the place, andthat he was ordered to remove his instruments. Nothing further was heard fromhim, the rebels having cut the wires a fewminutes afterward. . At half past 5 o'clock,the down passenger train passed Boyd'sStation, which is six miles this side ofCyuthiana. Conductor Vandyne telegraphedMr. Fulton that he remained at Cynthianaas long as safety would permit, when hemoved off amidst a shower of bullets. Hethought the chances were against the Unionforces, the bridge over Elthorn Creek,about seven miles north of Lexington, wasdestroyed by the rebels yesterday aiternoon

At dark last evening information was received in Covington that a force ot onehundred and forty rebels was encamped ata place called Verona, in Boone county,within eighteen miles of Covington. IiWa6 also rumored that the enemy had iuvested Falmouth, which is on the rai'roadIhirty-uiu- e miles from the city, and thatthey would probably burn tue railroadbridge at that point last night.

The Mayor, we learn, received a dispatchlost eveaiug, which reports the loss of thecannon and the capture of" the town, butdoes not mention the death luf Captaintilass.

Our reporter left Covington at midnightlast night. The town was qaiet, and thetelegraph office had closed., They had noconfirmation of the capture ot Cynthianaor the death ot (Japt. Glass.

Another Letter from General ButlerExplanation of tiie "Woman"

Order.The following characteristic letter from

Gen. Butler, explaining his reasons lor is-

suing thii celebrated order in regard to thewomen oi New urieaus, nas oeen receivedbv a gentleman iu Boston, the order referred to in the letter was published in oursummary of news from New' Orleans onSaturday last:

My Dea'r.'Sik: I em a '" of the. J .nil nni niOnofmV frif-e- ,

"f the il r yZl Luj x, 'jl-i-

. a eipuoiis in leg N'o.as leads me to say a word w vi. thesubject. '

That it ever could have been miscon-ceived as it has been by some portions ofthe Northern press is wonderful,and wouldlead one to exclaim with the Jew, "O,Father Abraham, what these Christians are,whose own hard dealings teach them to6U8tect the thoughts ot others,"

What was the state of things to whichthe Woman order applied?

We were two thousand five hundred menin a city seven miles long by two to fourwide, of a hundred aud fifty thousand in-

habitants, a'l hostile, bitter, defiant, explo-sive; standing literally on a magazine; aspark only needed lor destruction. TheDeviLbad entered the hearts of the womenof this town, (you know seven of themchose Mary Magdalen for a residence,) tostir up strife in every way possible. Everyopprobious epithet, every insultiug gesturewas made by these bejeweled,becrino!inedand laced creatures, calling themselves la-

dies, toward my soldiers and officers, fromthe windows of houses and in the streets.How long do you suppose our fl;sh andblood could have stood this without retort.That would lead to disturbances and riot,from which we must clear the streets withartillery and then a howl that we had mur-dered these fiue women. I hud arrestedthe men who hurrahed for Beauregard.Could I arrest the women? No. Whatwas to be done? No order could be madesave one that would execute itself. Withanxious, careful thought I hit upon this:"Women who insuit my soldiers are to beregarded and treated as common womenplying their vocation."

Pray how do you treat a common womanplaying her vocation in the streets? Youpass her by unheed- d. She cauuot insultyou! As a gentleman you can and will takeno notice of her. If she speaks, her wordsare not approbrious. It is only when shebeeomob a continuous and positive nuisancethat you call a watchman and give her incharge to him.

But some of the Northern editors seemto think that whenever one meets such awoman, one must stop her, talk with her,insult her, or hold dalliance with her, andso from their own conduct they coustruedmy order.

The editor of the Boston Courier may sodeal with common women, and out of theabundance of the heart his mouth mayspenk but so do not I.

Why, these s of New Orleansthemselves were at once shamed into pro-priety of conduct by the order, aud fromthat day no woman has either insulted orannoyed any live soldier or officers and ofa certainty no soldier has insulted anywoman. . '

When I passed through Baltimore on the23d of February la6t, members of my Staffwere insulted by the gestures of the ladiee(?) there. Not so in New Orleans.

One of the worst possible of all thesewomen showed disrespect to the remainsof the gallant young DeKay, and you willsee ber punishment, a copy of the orderwhich I enclose iB at once a vindicationand a i oustruction of my order.

I c n only say that I would issue it aga'nundi r like circumstances. Again thank-ing you for your kind interest,

I am, truly your friend,BENJ. F. BUTLER,

jpA Fashionable Wedding in India.A correspondent of the Lahore Chroniclegives an account of the marriage of thesen of the Maharajah of Cashmere'with thedaughter of t he Rfjah of Crumba. TheCashineie chief came to the wedding withhis whole court and 10,000 followers. Themarriage presents were numror. g aid costly.Acco. ding to the Rajpoot custom, eich chiefon becoming a guest received a present ofa bag of money, and on being dismissedby the Maharajah, a handsome khillut, withanother bag of money. During the hoursof the night the nuptial knot was tied, aform which is literal y performed accord-ing to Hindoo custom, by tying the gar-ments of the bride and bridegroom to-

gether, while the incantations are readThe bridegroom is a boy of nini, and ti ebride an infant. The marriage ceremoniesare said to have cost the Rijih 'iO.OOO ru-

pees, and the Maharajah about 15 lakhs.

Lord Palmerston on Mediation.In the House of Commons, Juno 30, Mr

Hopwood inquired whether the Britishgovernment intended to take any 3tep3 toendeavor to put an end to the civil war in

rneiiea, and Lcrd Talmerston replied asfollows:

"I trust I need not assure the honorablemember and the lkue that her majesty'sgovernment are deeply sensible of the euf--

lenngG uow existing in the mauuljetuniigdistricts. We know that the privations inthose districts are great, and also that thosewho sutler them ha7e endured them withthe most heroic fortitude and patience(.bear, hear), thus doing the greatest possible credit to their undei standing and intel-ligence. Tbey know that the sufferings

they endure have not resulted fromany bad legislation or any misconduct onthe part of the government of the country.TI;ey koow they are caufcd by circumstan-ces in other cour-trie- over which we haveno control (Hear, hear.) Her majesty'sgovernment would be most happy if it werein their pov,'er to do anything which wouldbe likely to ahbrd relief to those unhappyclasses of the population. But I am surethe House wiil See that anything like inter-ference with the Wi-- r now going on wouldonly aggravate stiil more the suti'erins's ofthose now under privation, (iieitr.) Withrespect to mediation and good offices, thereis no doubt whatever that both he- - majes-ty's government and the government ot theEmperor of the French w ould be delightedto avail themselves of any opportunitythat appeared to offer a fair prospect thatsuch a step would be attended with success.But iu the present state of the contest,while the two parties seem animated withthe most vehement arger and recentrneutagainst each other, I am afraid that anyproposal of that kind would not be welltimed, and would be sure to meet with ob-

jections on both sides. If, however, at anytime, a different state of things should arise,and a fair opening appear for any stepwhich might be likely to meet with the ac:quiescence of the two parties, it would benot only our duty to offer our Eervkes., butwould afford us the greatest possible pleas-ure to do so.

Letter from Hon. C. A. Vicklifl'e.Gov. Wickliffs thus responds to the invi

tation to address the Democratic Mass Con-

vention at Indianapolis, Ind., on the2uth:Washington, July 10, lSd2.

Mr. J. J. Bingham Sir: I have just re-

ceived yours, as a committeeman, invitingme to attend a Mass Convention of theUnion Conservative citizens of Indiana, atIndianapolis, on the cotn inst.

I approve the purposes and objects of themeefng as shauowea iortn in the addressof the Chairman of your Association.

Allow me to say, that unless the soundconservative peopie, in their majesty, andbv the exercise ct ail their power reservedand secured to them by the Constitution,act promptly, that Constitution and theUnion of which it is the bond, will both bedestroyed by tbe combined eCorts of theAbolitionists at the North, and the mad vio-

lence of the Secessionists.Both have long conspired to destroy the

Union for different ends and reasons ; andtheir object will be consummated, unlessthe people, who love their Government astheir i atbers made it, come to the rescue.

It is in vain to attempt to disguise thefact that the leaders ot the itepublicanparty, in and out of Congress, have combined with the Abelitionists, and are nowthe Abolition party. They may tell youthey are lor putting down the rebel ion,and "resoive that this war is not wasedfor revenge, but to. maintain (tiel'nLJh andenforce the laws. anl wi.:-!- '" done thewar Liiji: ' '1 cease. or:e v I si,by their vu- - acts and s. u. i s

John Morgan,From the Frankfort Commonwealth.1

Why don't they catch Morgan ? He hasbeen for days circulating within an area ofabout seventeen miles ot this place, inclu-ding Lawrenceburg, Versailles, Midwayand Georgetown, aud he is moving aboutas composedly as if he was iu Dixie. Herequires no transportation is unincum-bered with wagons gets his food whereverhe wants it, and takes just such horses assuit bim. He must by this time have thebest mounted cavalry corps iu the world,for he is taking the very cream of the bestblooded horses iu Ihe finest horse regiou inAmerica. The progeny of Eclipse andMedoc and Lexington, and the noblest im-

ported stallions, are now under the troop-er's saddle. Why, then, don't they catchMorgan? There are three timas his forcenow iu Frankfort, and probably fourtimes that in Lexington, to Bay nothingof isolated regiments that might bebrought to bear against him. Why, then,don't they catch him? We know of nosatisfactory answer to the question, unlessthey expect to catch him by the old wo-man's direction to children how to catchpartridges. But the. strategy goes a littlefarther than that, for, as the phrase nowis, they mean "to bag him." That is a pret-ty operation, where the holes in the bagaint bigger thau the mouth of the bag.But where there are so many ways of get-ting out besides the way he came in at, andhe is mounted on such fleet Bteeds, thechances are that he will leave us the bag tohold. However, wa don't feel competentto criticise military operations, and, there-fore, content ourselves that those whohave the control are doing the best theycan, and that in some way not understoodby us or by John Morgan, they will catchJohn Morgan.

Fears of a Iraft Stampede fromMaine to Cauada.

The Correspondent of the Eoston Trav.eler writes from the Alpine House inMaine, under ("ate of the 10th instant, as

follows:As the cars stopped at the Bethel station

about twenty-fou- r and intelli-gent appearing young men came aboard,en route for Canada, fearing that they mightbe drafted for the war. At the next depotabout ten more of the same class joinedthem, and at Norway about twenty more.A note was put into the Conductor's handsrequesting; him to telegraph from this piaceto Island Pond to have a company orderedoat to Btop them and scare them back ifpossible. The Conductor knew that therewould be trouble when the cars should ar-

rive, but thought it best to try a littlestratagem on his own account. He there-fore pretended to send a dispatch, statingthat they would all be arretted as soon asthey should reach Island Pond. This hodthe desired effect, and they all left the carsbut four and took to the woods, wherethey must have remained over night, asthey were 6ome fifteen miles distant fromIsland Pond.

There were in the train of freight carswhich went up morning, someforty persous, and when the lact was madeknown in one of the villages, the men andwomen turned out and hooted them.

liPJGRAMS.

Some of the Witty Sayings of WittyMen.

It won!! be difficult to give a better Cefl- -

ni'ion of the word epigram than that con-veyed in Martial's famous couplet:

'An ep'ram iff lik1 a bee a thingOf little size, with honey and a sting."

Martial was, tirsjself, one of the mostsuccessful tpljtrarjrrialis'.s that ever lived;but as he 'j m Latin, the points ot Lisbest efforts hare beeu lost in the translation. Burns docs not seem to have thoughtmuch of Elphiustone attempt to renderMart'i-- s som"ositions into English; for,on being banned 3 volume, the result ol Ir ,

he perpetrated oa the fly leaf the loilotving:"O thon, whom posy abhors,Whom prose h;iB larneo out of doors,IleardVt thou that groan? proceed no furhcr;'Twas laurelled Martial roaring 'niurthei!' "

Serious epigrams were formerly morepopular than comic ones; the reverse ishow the case. There is rot, probably, inthe English language a verse v.bich hasbeeu so extensively imitated ati Dryden'stribute to Milton. Iodeed, it is cot un-usual to find scholars of no meao attain-ments forgetting the real autnor act at-

tributing it to an imaginary ouc. It isworth reproducing:Three poets, in three distant ages born,Greece, Italy and Kngland did adorn;The first iu loftiness of thought surpassed,The next in majesty, in both the last. ;

The force of nature could no further go;To form a third she joined the farmer two.

A Latin jea d' esprit of Thomas Wharton,which was written to be placed under astatue of Sonanus, is thus turned into Eng-lish by Wolcot, and has been called a gem:C"ome, gentle sleep ! attend thy votary's prayer,And though death's image to nay couch repair,How sweet though lifeless, yet with life to lie,Andwithoutdyiug,0 bowsweet to die!

Montgomery once wrote an epitaph for amonument which .was to be erected overthe grave of three little innocents. As it isessentially an epigram we print it :

Bold infidelity tarn pale and die,Beneath this stone threw infants' ashes lie;Say, are they lost or saved ?

If "death's by sin, they sinn'd because they'rehere;

If Heaven's by works, in Heaven they can't ap-pear

Reason! Oh, how depravedKevere the sacred nai-e-, the knot's untied:Thev died, for Adam sinu'd they live, for

Jesus died.Baileau used to say that the best epi

grams originated in conversation; and ofall ot his own, oi wmcn ne wrote enoughto fill a volume, he gives the preferenceto the loliowing :

Here lies my wife, and heaven knows,Not more for mine than her repose.

Allan Ramsay, whose "Gentle Shepherd"is so much admir-d- , having been handed aoorange Dy tne countess oi Aboyne, ac-

knowledged it in these happy terms:Now, Priam's son, thou may'stbe mute,

For 1 can proudly vie with thee;Thon to the f iirett gave the fruit,

The fairest gave the fruit to me.Sir Jonah Barrington tells of an eccentric

literary man who imagined he was bornwith a peculiar kuack for makiog epigrams.The editors of the periodicals of his time,however, did not seem to appreciate hisfancied vocation; and, were it not for SirJouah.it is doubttul wnether any ot hisfavorite productions would ever see thelight of print. This is a specimen of theeccentric gentleman's ability as a bel esprit:

SIR SIDNEY SMITH AND MISS HCMBOLD.Says Sidney "I'll put all white slavery down,

All Europe I'll summon to arms."But fair Ilunibold replied, "I'll reverse my re-

nown,For all men shall be slave to my charm."

If thus, lovely"

champion, that tongue and thoseeyea

Can yet all mankind by the s,

Go. lire oil" your trlance-- . explode a few ighs,And niaKe captive the Dey of Algiers.hus vou'll rival ?Sir .Sidney in dory and trait-e-.

4 may conquer the tyrant, you'll lead him incuuins.

The German Lessjug is credited with thefollowing: . '

'tile' one at last-o- ld Niger's dead!"Last liidif'twas said throughout the city;

Each quidnunc gravely shook his head,And At'thc town cried, 'What a pity!'

Tbe news proved false; 'twas all a cheat;The morning came the fact denying;

And edl the town repeatWhat half the town last night was crying.There is spirit enough iu the subjoined

tojustifyits being attributed to Puncb, inwhich it originally appeared; having beenwritten Dy inaciceray:"Is my wife out of spirits!" said John, with a

- sign,As her voice of a temncst grave warning.

"Quite out, sir, Indeed," said the maid, in re--

"For'she finished the bottle this morning.'Roussean has left an epigram, the Eng-

lish version of which equals the original.Here it is:

The world is but, a comic play,Where men their varied parts essay.In dressed amat ic, on the boardsStrut bishops, ministers and lords;While we poor people sit below.Despised, though paving for the show.For which we are aliow"d to hiss,Whene'er the farce is play'd amiss."

It will be almost superfluous to informtbe reader that lorn Moore is the author olthe following:

They say thine eyes, like sunny skies,' Tliy chief attraction form;I see no svnehine in those eyes,

They take me all by storm.Oliver Goldsmith, during his "literary

vagabondage," wrote a lew epigrams, someof which have been omitted from his wonIt is said that he penned this at one ot tneLondon taverns, aud handed it to a friend,by way of a practical joke:

It, is a maxim iu the schoolsThat women always doat on fools:If so. dear Jack, Pin sure your wifeMust love you as she does her life.

On a fly-le- of on 3 of Shakspeare'splays these lines were discovered someyears ago, in the green room of an Englishtheater:

Shakspeare. 'tis said by some, stole deer;Oh, shame! I don't believe the story;

Yet harts are deer, and hearts he stole.Which makes hlB theft his dearz&t glory.

In the present age epigrams are numerous enough; and, as belore intimated, leanto the comic 6ide ot tbiugs. About a yearago a reportorial wag of the Evening Postalteredaan old epigram to suit the title of"Wall street," and had it printed as original in these columns. The plagiarism was,however, speedily discovered. In noticingit, a contemporary remarked that our reporter's version was different, in other respects than the title, Irora tne original, thisis a mistake. The stolen lines were spoken,impromptu, by the eminent EnglishmanJames Smith, and were soon answered bySir J. Clark, vve reprint uiem:

CRAFT.

At the top of the street the lawyers abound,And don at the bottom the barges are found;t v. honesty, nv. irom sucn a retrea ,For there's craft in the river, and craft in the

street.

To which Clark replied:Why should honesty fly from such a retreat?From lawyers and barges, 'od rot 'em!For the lawyers are just at the top of the street,And the barges are just at the bottom.

There are some good epigrammatists in"the modern Athens," and their efforts aregenerally regarded quite lavorably. Ofcourse the "Autocrat of the Breaklast Ta-

ble" figures in the front rank. We subjoina characteristic morceau of his:Quoth Tom: "Though fair her features may be,It is her flgnre pleases me.""What might her figure bef" I cried."One hundred thousand," he replied.

The annexed is al60 of Boston origin;and we think it reads like the Professor's:

When Sarah Jane, the moral Mies,Declares 'tiB very wrong to kiss,

I'll bet a shilling I see through it:The damsel, fairly understood,Feels just like any Christian should

She'd rather surfer wrong than do it.Comic epigrams are becoming so numer-

ous that it would require more space thanis at our disposal to chronicle even the be6tof them aud some of them are very good.We merely endeavored to collect a lew ofthe most noted ones.
