Tile Two Cities.
BY T. B. ALDBICH.
'Twas dusk, und from my window
Upon the street below,
] ?aw che people passftg,
Like shadows, to and fro.
And faintly. wr< faintly,
I beard thc ceasing- din; , * ,
And like thc du>k without me,
There was a dusk wiifciu.
And thoughts, with eager footsteps,
Dun thoughts of joy and pain,
1'illed tht- streets and by-ways of
Thc City of'my Brain. -,
A passing light and holy.
Like that which softly falls
Through open gates in cloudlets
"Upoii cathedral flails,
.Fell down upon the towers of
Thc City of my Mind;
My inner sight, grew clearer.
My outward vision blind.
Forgotten was the window,
Titerc seemed no street below:
I did net see thom passing,
T!rv shadows,'to'and fro!
A S<u THEKX CANDIDATE'S GARD.*
The following announcement of a
candidate wa^found posted on a tree
by the roadside ana brought to the
editor fit thc; Jackson Miss?stpj?an,
who gave &#i gratuitous publication:
fi Attention, Sovereigns!-Allow mo
through this medium to introduce
myself to your acquaintance as a
candidate for Assessor of Tuxes of
Hind? donnty. If any one should
be so inquisitive tis to ask why a man
of my gigantic intellect should ?y so
low, my answer is tinstone Feds, in
?lay, 1864, deprived nv of my left
vingi tliereforo vaulting ambition
.mst stoop her flight toa level with
?iv capability. Again, should any'
. .ne wish to know why I do not have
>a?nt?3 h?ls, I would civilly repjy
^ Lat my pocket-book would laugh for
a week ut the rustle of a greenback,
and would ne*er survive t?ie faintest
clink of metallic currency.
"I would like very much to call on
thc dear people, and talk to them
face to face: but to effect thia, "my
little school would have to close, and
with it my bread and butter.
"Under these circumstances, I
hope to bo excusable. ' m
"With high regard, I am yours to
command.

Ax ExiorrKG COUPLE PURSUED SEVEN
THOUSAND MII.ES.-Capt. Stansbury,
late of the St. Louis police force,
returned Tuesday evening, having
caught, in the city of Quebec, a run?
away girl, who eloped with a man
from her motlier, ii: Cincinnati,
some two months since. The girl
?was *safely returned to her mother bv
thc Captain, w ho was amply rewarded
for his trouble. The Captain infoAis
us that he has traveled over seven
thousand miles in pursuit of the fair
maid. He said it cost him at least
twfl thousand miles of rail and water
travel more titan was necessary, owing,
to the fact that the elopement wits?
prematurely published in the St.
Louis papers. The young lady got
wind that ?he Captain w:*.s in pursuit
while she was "in Buffalo, and then j
commenced a race unparalleled in
police aimais. The Captain chased
ber all over the 2iew England States,
when he found that the fair fugitive
had taken the Canada route. She was
. then followed to Boonshire Falls, in
Canada West; thence to Toronto, By
town. Trios . Rivers and Montreal,
Thc I ?antaiii got off the scent of the
fugitives on tue Grand River, owing
?ti) the fact that they left the main
lines of travel i>.nd took to a, raft, de?
scending tile river two hundred and
fifty miles. At Montreal, the girl's
paramour getting tired out, tho latter
was left behind, when the girl steam?
ed down to Quebec, where she was
caught by her persevering pursuer.
The girl-who, according to thc
Captain's statement, Vi? the prettiest
he ever laid his eyes on"-delivered
herself up gracefully, and was return?
ed to Cincinnati, to sin no more, it is
to be hoped. This was her second
elopement, she having tried tye ex?
periment once before, and waa cap?
tured at the Planter's House, in this
city, in company with a gambler, by
tile same officer who re-captured her
the second time.
^ [St. Louis Democrat, Sept. 21.
Ernest. Renan, the author of tho
Life of Christ, will return to Paris
from the East toward the end of 'this
month. In appearance fie is of re?
pulsive homeliness, but tho extraor?
dinary success of his work, and his
great attainments, together with his
high refinement and fine social tact,
make him a welcome guest in the best
V?reles of Paris. His new work on
die Apostles, the result, of his recent
pilgrimage to Apostolic cradles in
\sia Minor, will appear soon after his
arrival, and ?ill probably excite much
attention. ' Durang his travels in the
East, he was lionised not only by
French and English officials, but also
Mohammedans, who respect nobody
more than scholars like Kenan, who
with the " erudition of the theologian
blend the genius of the poet. The
Greek clergy st?pod almoft alone in
their opposition to Kenan's cordial
treception at ,A thens, when, upon tire
king and his Danish prime minister
offering a most distinguisheft recep?
tion to the French savant, the Greek
patriarch protested against it with the
greatest solemnity, denouncing ?jJBe
non** visit.to Athens as. fatal to. the
Greek church as the- visitation of
Lucifer himself.
THE*HOM LAND.-There is au in?
teresting movement now being mada
in England for the more thorough
survey and exploration of Palestine.
Ages of civilization lie "buried beneath
"the holy city," which no proper
effort lias yeWbee?i mado to. excavate;
am* the same may bo said of a large
portion of the land East of tho River
Jordan. These most interesting
regions are filled with mounds, which,
when fully opened, will? doubtless
contribute largely to compl?te or il?
lustrate the long- and varied history of
the Jewish people. Enough has
already been brought to light to show
the importance of such excavations.
The expedition now on foot will be a
purely scientific and nre*h;elogieal one;
and it is supported by the Ar chi shop
of York, the Bishop of London, 1
and Lords Russell and Derby,
with the patronage of the Queen. It
^ill bo carried on by men whose
tastes and studies have peculiarly
fitted them for the work; and ?he
result must not only be a^gr?at service i
to the history of civilization and art,
but the reflection of much valuable,
bght upon Holy Scriptures. ?

io the Citizens of South Carolina.
The termination of a sar quinary contest,
frhich for the past four years h a# presen fed
an impassable barrier to all social er com
limrc.ial intercourse between the two great
sections of our coan try, having at length
kap^ily cleared away all obstacles to a re
n.oval of those relation? which formerly
bound us together in a fraternal union, J
Vako t'n*) earliest opportunity afforded mo
by this auspicious event, to greet my South?
am friends, and to solicit from .them a re?
newal of that extensivo business connection
??ich for a quarter of * eentary aaa been
uninterrupted, save br the great public
calamity to which I bare ndv?rte'd.
It is scarcely necessary, on'the threshold
of a business re-union, I should repeat the
?r.irning so of?en given to my friends-to
beware of all those spurious and deleteri?
ous eom^.-uods which, ander the specious
and- false thies of Imported "Wines, ^ran?
dies, Holland Gin, Liquors, ?e., have been
equally destructiva A th? health of oar
citizens ns prejudicial to the interests of
Hi? legitimate importer.
Many years of my pant life hara bee?
expended ia an open and candid attempt to.,
espose these wholesale frauds"; no time nor
expense has been spared io accomplish Chi*
salutary purpose, and- tb plaac before my
friands and th/? publia generally, at the
lowest possible market prier, and in such
quantities as might snit their convenience,
! a truly genuine imported article. .
' Twenty-fiTc yeArs'business transactions
j with the Inrgest and most respectable ex?
porting house? in'France and Great Britain
I li?rc afforded mr unsurpassed facilities for
? supplying our ?ionic market with Wines,
i Liquors and Liqucfes o.f the be#t and most
. approved brands in Europe, in addition tc^
{ my own distillery in Holland for the manu
[ facture of the '-Schiedam Schnapps."
The latter, so long tested and approved
I by the medical faculties of thc United
I States, West Indies and South America as
i an invaluable TheKipeutic, a wholesome,
I pleasant and perfectly r afe beverage in all
I climates and during.all seasons, quickly
j excitr 1 the cupidity of the home manufac
1 turora and venders of a spurious article
under the sanie name:
I trust that I hire, after much toil and
expense, surrounded alb my importations
with safeguards and directions which, with
ordinary circumspection, will insure their
delivery, as I receive them from Europe, to
all my custonlers.
I would, however, recommend, in all
caaes where it in possible, that orders be
sent direct to my Depot, 22 beaver street.
New York, or that purchases be made of
my accredited agents.
In addition te a large stoek of Wines,
Brandies, Ac. ifi wood, I have a consider?
able supply of old tried foreign Wines, em?
bracing vintages of many past years, bot?
tled up before the commencement of the
war, which 1 ?Jin especially recommend to
all connoisseurs of these mr? luxuries.
In conclusion, I would specially call the
attention of my Southern customers to the
advantage to be derived .y transmitting
their orders without loss of ; .ie, or calling
personally at the Depot, In order to insure
the fulfillment of their favors from the pre
' sent large and well aelactod assortment.
