Around tier head no jewels bind,
Symbols of pomp and pride ;
l’rcsh flowers, through th* hair entwin’d,
Befit so young a hiide :
No diadem shall rear its weight
Above that child-like brow ;
The future may bring robes of state,
But dress her simply now.
Load her with roses, whose sweet breath
Like memories fond and pure,
Bequeath their fragrance after death,
Still cherished to endure :
Heart’s-ease shall typify her lot,
Her love by pinks be told:
And she shall have forget-mp-not,
With its true heart of gold.
Give her no pearls—for “ p ills are tears-’—
To hang about her neck ;
No gems betokening woes or fea-»,
Her youthful form to deck:
No opal with its changeful line—
This is “misfortune’s ston"
No sapphire, by whose dephts of blue
“Repentance” is fore--holm.
Our bride in flowers shill be dress’d,
Which bode not g-ief r.o sin;
As best beseem a trsmj lil breast.
And loyal heart within:
And we will wish her Joy’s best wealth—
A life with bless tig.- ft aught;
But, chief of all, (he spirit’s health,
To use them a5 she ought.
A Doi.orous but (jiraimiic View of
Human Affairs.—A correspondent of
the Wisconsin Chief thus sums up the
characteristics of human existence:
All fFii.HilianPu 1C litcl Imt itMiui tnu n n nrl
man. The bottom lias fallen out of every
thing. Shrewd business managers are
cheating GoJ in their bargains. Ginger
is made out of mustard, mid cotfee uf chick
ory, Young Hyson is raised in the cow
pasture, and Young America in the dratu
shop. Pure wines are made of poor whis
ky, and Havanas of herbs. Rascality has
become' a virtue, and rot-gut turned to vin
egar. Legislatures are marked as mer
chants mark goods, and the people’s funds
absorbed by “ charitable purposes.”
Governors are knocked off forSSO 000;
le ;islatures from So 000 to $ "JO 000.
Railroad stock is down below zero, r.iu
cusos are “ packed ’’ on I you ig men elec
tioneer on the Sabbath. Fairbanks scales
have taken to swindling, an I ,! rain sell
ing their tails to spike caisn m. Jews
harps are palm J oft as harps of a thou
sand strings, and Democtats us “genuine
Republicans”—sperms of just men made
perfect. Sausages are adulterated, and
templing links seem to wag in the most
dogged manner. Our territory, ns well as
our crinoline, is definitely expanding. In
fine, there are none trull,ml .-am hoise
jockeys; none patriotic save politicians;
none talented but those who make “on
change” of a grocery corn r, and client
out of the needy what they give to the
Lord.

A Qmn Mis taxi:.—Bell's Life, in
copying a |Kiragraph which appeared on
the subject of the fresh lot of American
horses recently taken by Mr. Ten Bro.-ck
end Mr. Harlan to England, makes the
queer mistake of translating tin abbrevia
tion “ imp,’’ used in ibis country to indi
cate “ imported” horses, into the word
'• imperial.” Tnus it i.as Air. Harlan's
Lincoln, os by Imperial Belshazzar, dam
try Imperial Jordan, instead of imported
Belshazzar and imported Jordan. T.iis
mistake reminds us of the reply winch a
well-known turfman of tins country, whose
hordes, during a certain season, had been
distanced almost every time they run
made to Ins young wile, at a unmet party,
when she asked him wh t the a’ .'vn
lion “ dist,” meant, which she I d always
s eu attached to the names ni Ins h uses ?
hue gentleman looked up an I down the
knowing line of Inf'S at e tali', and
dryly replied, “ that mour-s distinguished,
