[Of tbe following poam Georjrc D. Prentic.
•yi: "One might almost vrlah to die If h.
knew tbat no beaatlful a trikeffto as tliil
Mould ba written to bi. memory :"]
On tbe boeom of a river,
Where the sun tinlnneed its quiver,
And the starlight gleamed forever,
Sailed a Teasel light and free.
Morning dew-drops hung like manna
On tbe bright folds of her banner,
And the rephyra roee to fan her
Softly to the radiant sea.
At bar prow a pilot beaming
In tbe dnah of youth stood dreaming,
And he waa in glorions seeming
Like an angel from above.
Through his hair tho soft breeze sported,
And as on the wave he floated,
Oft that pilot, angel-throated,
inroiei lay. ot nope end lovo.
Through thoae lock, so blithely flowing
Bod. of laurel bloom were blowing,
And his hands anon were throwing
Mimic from a lyre of gold.
8wiftly down the stream ho glided,
Soft tho purple wave divided,
And a rainbow arch divided.
Ou it. canvas.' aiiowy fold.
Anxions hearta with fond devotion,
Watcb-d Mm sailing to the ocean.
Prayed that never wild commotion
'Midst the elrme:.:. would Ha».
And he sailed some yonng Apollo,
Charming .nranier winds to follow,
While tbe water.Hag.* carol
Trembled to his innate Nigh*.
But thoae purple waves enchanted,
Rolled beside a city hanntcd
By an awful spell that dauutod
Every comer to the >hore.
Night shade, rank tbe air encumbered,
And pale marble statue, uuuilieinl
Where the lotus-eater, slumbered,
And woke to life no more.
Then there rushed with lightning quMcMH
O'er his face a mortal sicknc...
And the duw in fearful tliickuca.
Gathered o'er hi. temple fair.
And there svtopt u dying murmur
Through the lovely Soullu rri Summer,
A. the iM-i&iitcoiiH pilot coiner
Perished at that city thcr.-.
Still rolls on that radiant river.
And the -un illil.ii d. hi. quiver,
Anil the ■ ijr :. Ii' -treain. forever
On it* hoaoni a" Wfore.
Hill thill vessel', rainbow l.ann. I
Orei'ls nn more Ibe gsy MTejilM,
And tbat pilot's lute drop, iminiiu
On the purple wave, no mote.

Ttie plan contemplate.! by tlie naso

ajrency ol reH|ioiiHil.le iiu.l known I.MIII
■(rents in each one of the eonntlee of
this State, and ol Hie several StiitcM in
which auxiliary associations are or
may lie organized. Home delay lias
taken place in tbe appointim-iit ot
enmity agent, iu this State, on account
of the difficulty of getting the names
ot pro'ier |H-rMona in some of (lie eoun
tie., but they will be eppointad either
by tbe asHociation or by eoanty UMHO
cialioiia foriued under I lie auspices of
pminiueiil and res|M.s:talile citizens,
and all .ueb county association*, as
already been formed, or which may
hereafter lie formed, will be rii-ognizcd
as miiml>li- agencies of the main asso-ciation
; and tbe formation ot sucli in
all tbe counties is recommended. In
Other StOtr ■ tho.l Virginia ll.o del nil,
ol operations will Is- left to the tinxiliury
associat wiiH formed ill those Slates ;
but it is recommended to I hem to adopt
tbe plan alstre mentioned, and to all
stain from all schemes. All funds
raised can lie forwarded to Col. Win.
II. Palmer, of Richiiii.ini, who is treas-urer
of tbe asKis-ialion. The associa-tion
having been iaeorporated by an
act of the Virginia Legislature, almii
dant precanlion will lie taken to pro-vide
for tbe safely and due apprnpiia
tiou of the funds that may In- raised.
1 speak only tor tbe Monumental
Association proper, but I deem it not
JDappropi iate to state here tbat Ibeie
ia no cnnilii't lietween the objects of
this association and that organized at
Lexington lor the pnipeae of suitably
adnrniiig and commemorating the pre-sent
tomb of General Lee, nor of the
Ladies' Hollywood Memorial Associa-tion
in providing a final resting place
for his remains among those of the
soldierswhofell under him. The scheme
of this association tot creeling a grand
monument nt Richmond, the capital of
11 IO Confederate Stales, can lie earned
out in entire harmony with the other
two schemes, and it is a very mistaken
idea that there is any antagonism be-tween
them.

Hum.—Mirk Twain, in the Qalaxyjhaa
a portrait of King William, of Prussia,
It is i ust such a picture as a small boy
i-iiul.1 draw on his slate, representing
the full face of a belmeted personage,
with his moustache and eiiaaletts. In
the commentary appended. Mark says:
Whatever I am in art, to-day, I owe
to tbe Crhu-y portraits. I take no
credit for myself—I deserve none.—
King Will nm wears large, bushy side
whiskerSeUid some critics have thought
that this portr-.ut would be more com-plete
if they were added. But it was
im|H>ssiblc. There was not room for
side-whtoken nnd epaulettes both, end
so I let Ibe whiskers go, anil put in
tbe epaclettea for the sake of style,—
Thai thhg on his bat is an eagle—it
is a natonal emblem. When I say
hat, I inran helmet; but it seems im-possible
to make a picture of a helmet
that a Imly can have coufideuce in.
The follow ing are commendations of
the portlait:
There s nothing like it in the Vati-can.

The annual aneetiug of the stock-holders
of the Pennsylvania railroad
company waa held In Philadelphia
Tuesday, and a hmg and very interest-ing
report ot tbe doings of the com-pany
for the past year, aad of its pros
eat ajtuatiou, was read ; The gross
earnings of the main line for the year
were 117,5,11,700, and the expenses
•11, 200,085—leaving of net earning
$0,271,021. The gross revenues of 1870
are equal to $48,971 per mile, and arc
$280,8».-. in exoossoftho.se of 1809.—
The actual euet ofoperaiing,includiiig
the branch lines, was slightly less thau
00 per cent, of the receipts. The revc-uuee
of the lines operated by the Penn-
H.» ' vauiu railroad company (the Port
Wayne, the Philadelphia and Erie, and
and the Pituburg and Erie}, including
those from their own, were £29 005,-

which wae paid in dividends and inter-est

ITarrisburg railroad; and in payment of

Works. $S,K49,:<40, hiving a bnlaucc

year.wbich, added to a similar surplus
in 1888, of W46Sft33 gives a total of $1-
011.081. FaTorable as these figures
present tbe attain of llie company, and
■ .peeialiy the investments iu other lines
the report say* it is confidently expect-ed
that after the current year they will
show a very material increase, andrwtll
yield an atiionnt fully sulfieient u, meet

the report of the treasurer shows that
the net revenues in IS70 were in ex-cess
of the summit required to meet
dividends of 10 per cent, ■pea tnta in-crease
of capital, and as there is no
reason to expect less favorable results
in the future there would seem to he
no reason for appreheusiouoii tbe part

and purpose of tho •' bureau" to

of the oompany's efforts to establish a

were oommunicated to tbe meeting ;
