I cannot lightly talk and smile,
I will not sit, and sigh ;
I an not vexed enough to scold,
And too mucih voxod to ory ;
So, Annie, do enlight n me
My hope is all in you ;
I'm sure I don't know what he means,
And can't, tell what to do.
Last night when Charlie talked to me,
Though lie was kind anA good,
lie acted like an Injured man,
Who suffered all he could;
'Twoul he a pretty way to be
Without the asking led ;
If he wishes me to take him,
'Tie very easy said.
'One aay lie asked me if I thought,
When to anoth.r wed.
I'd ever breathe a sigh for him,
Becauso his hopes ivere dead ?
And if I did not think he'd feel
Disconsolate and sAd I
I'm sure I o in't tell how he'd feel
I know that I'd feel bad.
He said lie wisheu te kiow my heart
His own was to, with doubts
If ho'd only ask me what I think
Of him, he'll find It out :
So what to think, or how to act,
I'm sure I do not know
]Jut if he wants'to marry me,
I wish he'd tell me so.
Leslie Oharres Hlome on the Extremists.
COLUMnlA,Febrtary 26.-Tho chief
feature of public interest to-day in
the Senato was a speech by Lsoblie,
in which lie took oceasion to say
things, in his peculiar mtyle, that
made not a few of his colleigues
realize how "uneasy rests the head
that wears the crown." As you
know, from past experience, ho is one
of those impulsive men, who, when
the old Adam within him is aroused,
minces neither language nor truth,
and no matter whore his shafts ttrike,
whether it be in the heart of friend
or foe, whether they lay bare the rot
tenness of Radicalism, or reveal the
corruption of his own fellows, he lets
them fly like porcupine quills, right
and left., from a quiver almo.t ex.
haustless. When unable to carry his
point by dip-low-macy, he indulges in
a reekls species of high-jamp hacy,
seizes on the very pillarsof his party,
and then if he falls, frolics amid the
ruins which, Sampson like, he has
pulled around him.
This was his achievement to-day.
Cain introduced a resolution that the
time of final adjournment should be
extended from the 1st to the 15th.of
March, and speech after speek, indj
cated the purpose of the Senate to
adopt the same. Leslie, in his oppo
sition, represented the Governor, who
is understood to have declared that if
the Legislature remained hero ten
days longer, they would ruin the Re
publican party ; and doubtless he was
also stimulated by his own honest
desire to engage in something more
profitable than legislation. He said
to the Senato :
"HeTre you have been three months,
and spent two hundred thousand dol
lars. And in God's name what have
we done ? You have passed act after
act in behalf of chureh organizat ions
and fire companies; you have sat here
legislating on the most trivial of mat'
ter, and yet have little move: to shiow
for it than a pile of 'iteiguiificant
laws and your six dellars *a dpiy. I
there no shame, no honestj, no sentse
of justice that can stop you this side
of that point beyond which decency
cannot go ? What do you pt'oposo to
