"I ain Lauretta, sir, ami live with Bridget,

"Yes, I should think she did, you little

by the fire and warm your toes?there now,
I want to talk with you. Arc you Bridget's
child ?"

over the little facc.
"No, 1 thought not. "Washerwomen's

"Alia, you pay your board then ? Well,
little Lauretta, will you since I"1' 1110 now ? " :
' Yc*, indeed," and the little one stands
up in the middle of the rug, and, opening !
her rosebud mouth, she sings Casta l>iva ! j
"JJIess my stars what a voice ! 1 know !
something about music myself; at least
enough to know that such a voice should
be a fortune to the one that possesses il.
Little one, where did you learn that 1 "
"Nurse taught me."
"Nurse ! Who is nurse ? "
"Nurse is dead." The dark eyes fill with
tears, and the ruby lips are nuiverv.
Mr. Patron walks up and down the
room. His curiosity is excited as well as
liis pity.
"Please, sir, shall I have the basket ?
Bridget will scold me if I stay so long."
"No, little one, I will carry the basket, 1
am going home with you."
"It's up five flights of stairs, sir, and there
is no light in the passage."
"All the more reason T should go with

"Shirts all light lhidgct. I came to

something obout her, She has been singing
to me. Will you tell me where she
came from ? "
"Yc take a deal a trouble for a lone bit
ot'a children, indeed, sir, but her stwry is
not so very long. She lived with a furien
woman, in the room below, named Theresa.
The woman she was waiting maid in Lauretta's
family, in Italy, somewhere, and
whilesbe was out with the child, then only
two years old, for the sake of the air, there
came a big row in the city, and the child's
father was in tho middle of it, and got kilt;
mid when she reached the house, all in a
fright, sure it was on fire and the mother
of it gone, and niver was she able to find
it. So she kept the child and comes to
America wiin it, lor she heard how the
streets were paved with gold, and when she
came and found nary gold nor food but for
the working, she had to go to work, as all
we poor creatures do ; an' she look in washing
in the one room down stairs; but niver
a bit would she let the child do for itself;
but waited on it like a slave, and only taught
it to sing, "as its mother did before it," she
said; and last year Theresa died. This
poor creaturo took on so bad that I took
her myself, only I'll be bringin' her up dif
ferently, intirely ; I'll teach her to earn her
bread, at any rate, and so T send her out
every day, to sing to the great folks, an'
makes her help me to carry around the
elothes, and that is all, sir."
"It was very good in you, Bridget, to
take the little orphan ; you liavo saved her
from a sad fate; you will be rewarded, you
reay depend."
Bridget raised her eyebrows and dropped
ff courtesy, while little Casta Diva, as Mr.
Patron then, and ever since called her, hid
lier face in the bed and sobbed to hear her
own story related. The kind gentleman
leoked at her tenderly, and then continued :
"I have a plan for this poor child, which
will relieve you of your charge, and repay
you for your goodness of heart. Goodnight,
little one ;- I'll come to-morrow. Drj
your tears, for I will yet make you happy
Here, Bridget, is some money for you, and
be sure you do not send her out. to sing
again. I have something better for her to
V., Bridget drop, - another courtesy; and
her month opened wide?for she was all
aayBtified and bewilderod.
An Lour laler and Mr. Patron is again
seated in an easy chair before his brighl
e6?l fire, with his dressing ffAWn onnA

folded around him. The only difference is
that he smiles instead of sighing as he did
before.
"As, yes," be says, "I see my way clear

And so he goes to bed and dreams of his I |,
future joys till lie fairly laughs aloud in his |,
sleep. (,
Now it is morning, and if you will put V1

' walking along the hall, lie stops at. No. 8 ,]
I ?knocks gently; but the rich toned piano, j
i touched by a thrilling hand, does not allow ^
so love-like a tap io be heard. 'lliis time v

door is opened l>y a beautiful woman, who T
J smilingly invites liiin to enter. Well, I I j

Well, after all L can't tell what they said (
now; because I promised I wouldn't; but ^
Patron had staid in there a great while, and
lie don't ask her to sing or play all the !
time.
Now the door opens again and theycomo
out together ; he in his overcoat and hat;
she in her cloak and velvet bonnet. lie i 1
looks very much excited, and she looks pale j ^
ami trembles so .she can hardly speak. Sin; j
takes his offered arm, and goes down stairs I '
and out of the street door. I do believe ^
they are going to Uridgel's. j v
And so tliev are. I ^
(Iood Mr. l'alron walks slowly with the ! '
sweet lady, for she has every reas-on to treni- | '

for she has been telling her friend how her !

day, because he was a great politician, and ! V
when they had burned his house they took '1
and threw her into prison, where she re- 1 1
mained a whole year, and only made her V
escape when during the terrible trouble in ; c
Italy, the prison doors were unbarn d to all. <
She sought frantically for her child, but
in vain, and believing that both Lauretta 1

Her kind friend supports her up five ! t
fiights of stairs, and she stoops to take , j

Tlio following amusing scene actually occurred
last summer between a cit izen of our j
own and a Yankee on board one of the
Northern steamboats, perhaps upon the
llud-on.
Our Southern friend discovered a disposition
in a very genteel looking man on board
.bo boat to open a chat with him, and not
loth to hear what his friend had to say, lie
indicated by his manner that bo was approachable
; whereupon the following dialogue
ensued :
Yankee?Well, sir, I wish to ask you one
question ; I hope it will be no oft'encc.
oouuierner?uortainly not; 1 will hear
yon with pleasure.
Yankee?Well, sir, is it true that they
ivork negroes in the plow at the South ?
Southerner?I will answer you in the favorite
method of your own countrymen, by
risking you a question or two.
Yankee?I admit the right, sir.
Southerner?How many negro men do
you suppose it would require to draw n large
onediorse plow ?
Yankee?Well, I suppose six or seven?
say seven.
Southerner?What are they worth per
head ?
Yankee?Well, I suppose $800.
Southerner?That would bo $5,000. Now,
what would one large, strong horse cost ?
Yankee?I guess about $100.
Upon this the Southerner looked a little
quizzical at his neighbor, who, without waiting
to hear th? mnMn.!A? -??*

stammered:

PltKSWKNT BrCUANAN's WlFK AT Ul.ArKWn.lJ
Islani*.?I saw yesterday a lady in New York,
who claims to be the wife of our bachelor President
Mr. liuehanari. She is quite open and
persistent in her claims. She has in a bed
what she says are two children, whom she
claims are the President's children, nnd noth
ing but the constant care of her friends prevents
her from going to Washington and demanding
to be placcil in the White House as
the lawful occupant of the domestic department
of that celebrated putRlilUlinmi.t Ti.r*
lady is in the Insane Asylum at Iilackwell's
Island, and her children arc two white cats,
whom she has trained to such docility, that she
keeps thein in hed nearly all day sleeping between
sheets, on nice elenn pillow-eases, nil
tucked in like children with caps on their
heads. Ail the visitors call on Airs. Buchanan,
sec her cats, and they allowed tho clothes
to be turned down, and a view taken without
an effort to rise from their couch. The name
of one of the cars is John C. Fremont, and the
other is Alexuuder Hamilton.?Boston Journal.

Mail Facilities with tho West.
\W were gratified to learn, yesterday, from
(VI. 10. (J. Kaslnmti, of Nashville, that lie has <1
effected Arrangements with tlie various Itail- 1
road Companies between this city ami Mem- 1"
phis and Nashville, by which our coiuuuitiiea- t
lions with those places will be greatly fueilita- I
ted. Col. Eastman lias been on a tour of duty 1
for some weeks, devoted to tho inspection ami i
reformation of the various mail connections, 1
which has resulted in the adoption of a t>clie- t
dulo by whieh passengers and mails leaving i
Charleston iu the u.J p. in. train tor the vVest, <
will be due in Memphis at 5 p. m. the second t
day after, or iu about 18 hours. This a gian :
of some 14.or lf> hours over tins former ar- j
riingem?!iits. Passengers for Nashville, lenv- i
ing at the same hour, will rcach their destina- 1
tion at '.i a. m. the second day after, or in uO 1
hours. j
We are pleased to notice this attention to
j the wants and interests of the South, by the
I'ost Olliee Department, and we have re ?m to
believe that that it is but the lie^immiu of a
reformation, which lias fw il '""K time. been 1
greatly needed. Tin; improvement in our j
inn il schedule with Memphis derives additional
importance from the I'ncL that il litis been selected
as <'110 of t in; points of departure for the
Overland Mail to California. A despatch
from Washington states :
The 1'ostmtist< ! ( M-neral, with the vpprobntion
of the I'resi dent, has selected the following
route for conveying the overland Mail to
California, namely ; beginning at St. Louis and !
Memphis, oil the Mississippi river ; thence,

You sliavo because your beard is a light color,
aud you daro not wear it; you are a vain |
man, because you shave to make yourself look
better, therefore you have told two lies ; you're
an ignorant man, bccause the color of your
beard-harmonizes with that of your eyes, Hps

knew it; aud you are a saucy man, becauso
you are ignorant* and sneered at me. You

iif.hk has long existed a public demand for an
tive purgative pill which could be relied on as
and perfectly safe in its operation. This has
i prepared to meet that demand, and an ex tentrial
of its virtues has conclusively shown with
t success it accomplishes the purpose designed,
s easy to make a physical jii/l, but not easy to
EC the best of all pills ? one which should have
c of the objections, but all the advantages, or.
y other. This has been attempted here, and
i what success wc would respectfully submit to
public decision. It has been unfortunate for
patient hitherto that almost everv purgativo

This is not. Many of tlicni produce so much
