MY NATIVE HAY.
My native bay is calm ami bright, i
as e'er, it was of yore,
When in the days of hope and love,
1 stood upon its shore !
The sky is glowing, soft and Iduo,
As once in youth it smiled,
When summer seas and summer skies
Were always bl ight and mild.
The sky?how oft hath darkness dwelt,
Since then upon its breast; r
The sea?how oft have tempest woke '
lis billows from their rest!
So oft hath darker woes came o'er
Cairn self-enjoying thought;
And passions' storm a wilder scene
Within my bosom wrought.
I
Now, alter years ol absence, passed
In wretchedness and pain,
i come, and find those seas and skit's
All calm and bright again.
The darkness and the storm from both
J lave trackless parsed away;
And gentle as in youth once more
Thou seem'st my native bay.
Oil, ihut, like tliee, when toil is o'er,
Ami all my giIts are past,
This ravaged bosom might subside
To Peace and joy at last !
And while it lay all calm like thee,
In jiurc urnitlled sleep,
Might then a heaven as blight as this,
He micro wed in its deep!

than new teams. Set the coulter in ,

Nkw York, May 2, 1870.
The latest mania among our young
"bloods" ami turfman, ami one which
seems likely to be the ruling one in
their intervals of Centennial seeing
this summer, is the revival ol the old
fashion English couching facilities lielore
the introduction of railways.
There seems always to have been a
peculiar fascination to some people in
the exhilaration of driving or riding
on the t??p of, these bulky conveyances,
and it we may credit, those inimitable
descriptions ot Dickens, a vast deal ot
dignity attached to the magnate who
prolessionally held the "ribbons.*' In
spite ol steam the stage coach has never
become quite extinct in England,
but to day the pursuit ol co idling
among the aristocracy amounts to h
passion. In mhminer many a tilled
driver runs his daily route out of London,
and no more thinks of missing a
trip on account of weather, or losing a
fare I hate.in he obtained by any ol '.he
approved methods, than it his sole support
was derived from his occupation.
Well as 1 have said, the rage has
spread to our own shores, and we are
now the delighted passengers of a

see the Inn.
The paying out. of silver in exchange
{or fractional 44shiiiplastcrs" has been
going on for some ten days over the
counter ol the Sub Treasury, but it
comes slowly into sight. $100,000
has already been thus put into the
hands ol the people, and it, is intended
by the (Government to get $ 1,000,000 of
it in circulation here as rapidly as possible.
Mat the novelty is hs yet too
great. I To some sixteen years since
we have been able to jingle the dimes
and (piarLers in our pockets without
going to the trouble of buying them
at a big premium ol some broker or
other bloated aristocrat; so now that
ro! can hear the exhilarating tinkle at
small expense, we have got to feast
our eyes and ears lor a while, before
trusting the coins out ot our hinds.
Its as good as a play to see n crowd ol
little street Arabs, most of whom were,
so to speak, born into a paper eurrcn
r.y (or father the hud; ol it), get their
heads together over a dime. The little,
sli tier arouses no tender recollections
in them. Silver had hid its head
before their trou-btes began.*, but the
looks of eager curiosity or pleased surprise
as the centre ol attraction passes
cautiously from one little grimy baud
to another with the various quaint, and
original comments which are freely
made, are extremely amusing.
The death of the veteran Irish actor,
Marncy Williams, has developed the
I set that, he+idtss his .rare professional
accomplishments, he was a cultivated
and unusually exemplary man and eili/ioi.
The notice of his decease has
called forth numerous and wavm eulogies
upon his character and carver
through the columns of the press, lie
was one o! the most wealthy of contemporary
actors, his real estate in this
city alone being valued at upward of
j>*0,()00.

Disappearance ol (^eor^iu Lakes.
A third lake in Lowndes count v

Times has several times alluded to the
fact that Lowndes county had within
its borders nun hers ol lakes froiu ten
to five hundred ( uut several beyond

he that these lakes arc all connected
with a grand underground water
