Shadows on the Wall.
In early days a little ioy
That much enhanced my boyish joy,
Was given me; I did not rest,
But hard my eldest brother presl,
Till he op'd to my wondering eyes.
The magic lantern’s mysteries.
Upon my little chamber wall
The changing pictures bright did fa'l :
All i 'th'n my cup of bliss ran o'er;
Quickly I rushed across the floor,
To where in colors dazzling bright,
The figures drew my wondering sight—
How quick my hurrying blood grew chill’d,
My eyes with tears were fill'd.
For castles, farics, landscapes, all
Were nought but shadows on the wall !
So ever in my chequered life,»
Alike with grief and pleasure rife:
I've loved, enjoyed and lost, till. I
Have questioned life‘s great mystery;
The loved prov'rl false, cnjoymcnts pulled,
And lost ones uc’c‘r can be rc-crilled. '
The haunts of sin, and pleasure's grol,
lIold not a neck I‘ve cuiered not;
Misfortuncs ever crossed my way;
I've seldom seen a happy day;
But still I‘ve borne my Weary lol,
Nor mourned beenriéo 'it altered not.
Why should I mourn, when all I see
Come to this judgment finally?
All things of e hill, or great, or small,
Are nought but shadows on the wall.

Tns'rmoNv IN THE case or PM JonN
PORTER—In the last chapter Of Gen. Stroth-
er‘s Recollections of the War, in Harper's
Monthly for November, is a statement which
bears very slrongly against the demand of
Mr. Porter for a new trial. Gen. Strolher
was on the stud" of Gen. Pope, and himself
conveyed the order to Gen. Porter for his ad-
vance on the 29th day of August, the day
onjvhich Jackson was sorely pushed, and
when, says Can. Strollrcr, “but for the failure
of McDowell and Porter to reach the field,
we should certainly have destroyed J acksou."
He enters in hisdrary for that day the fol-
lowing : ‘
“ Porter, who received the order carried
by myself (Ibis morning at sunrise) to move
on Cenicrville, and a second order at Manas-
sas, turning his course "toward Groveton,
shelved no disposition to assist in the fight
at all, but he laid quietly in sight and hear-
ing of the baltle all the aflernoon. His con-
duct is indignanlly denounced, and there is
some talk of a summary arrest.” General
Slrother says of lhe battle of August 29th :
“Without hesitation or dela all the ir00ps
opc’s eye were
ihrowu upon lhe enemy. All day long the
roar of musketry and cannon, like the sound-
ing of a mighty gong - invited the absent lo
a least of death and g ory - all day long lhe
white baffle-cloud, visible from hill and plain
for twenty miles around, beckoned to lag-
gard skulker, to the exhausted soldier who
had dropped behind his regiment, to lhe
starred Chieftain who may have mistaken his
way or misunderstood his orders; all day
long lhe anxious commander counted lhe
minutes, and urged his legions lo a succesr
sion of brilliant but cxbaualing attacks,
vainly lislculng for the burst from the cre-
my’s”righl and rear which was to give us vic-
tory. ~

Love and Hornets.
A ludicrous, but still a painful and embar-
rassing incident occurred to an acquaintance
of ours during the Week of lhe Shelby conn-
ly Fair. Our friend, who is a gallant young
widower, was visiting a house in the country,
which at that time, among its other tenants,
contained three beautiful and accomplished
young ladies. It is supposed by the knowing.
ones that one of these young ladies was the
principal fair which attracted our friend to
Shelby county. Be that as it may, he went
to slay the wrek out, and was duly supplied
wilh mimenl suitable for llre'occasion.
On his arrival as was shown to his room
where he immediately commenced gelling
IrimSclf up for dinner. Taking from his va-
lise a glossy broadciolh (font, he hung it by
the window, in order to let the wrinkles in
it get somewhat smoothed out before dinner.
When that important event arrivrd, our he-
ro, hurriedly putting on his coal, repaired lo
1 the parlor, and from thence Accompanied
the ladies in lhe dining-room. He had bare-
ly sealed himself before he astonished the
company by a loud ejaculaiion and a violent
slap of his shoulder. »
He kept on r-jaculaling, writhing and slap-
ping vigorouslyfor a‘ short time. when he,
suddenly jumped to his feel, ncarl upset.
ting the lublo, and roared out: “ hat in
Heavouls name is it ‘2" At the same time he
was stripping himself of his coat and veal.
The ladies became very much frightened at
his frantic movements, and beat a hasty re-
treat. . .
In the meantime our friend had discovered
the cause of his fright. Several enormous
hornets bad crawled into his coat sleeves
- whil that garment was hanging at the win-
dow, nd, not liking lheir confined position,
they had commenced pegging away at him as '
soon as he sat. down. The painful stabs,
coming in such quick succession and so un-
accountably, filled the mind of the victim
with terror. He thought ofvipers, centi-
pedes and larnutulas, and who shall blame
him for being frightened out of his wits ? .
The cause of his curious conduct was ex-
plained to the ladies, much to their relief.
Their hearls were filled with sympathy and
mirth, and that wasa merry little dinner
party, notwithstanding ifs inauspicious com-
mencement—Louisville Courier.

MAJORITY REPORT OF COMMITTEE
ON THE SALE OF lNTOXlCA'I‘lNG
LIQUORS.
[Continued to lire ncxl session of the Gener-
al Assembly and ordered to be printe I will:
the laws] .
'GENERAL AS‘EhIBI.Y, May Scs:inu, 1867.
Tire undersigned, ll majority of lhe jainl
select commiltce on the sale of spirituous
liquors, to whom were referred the pclilions
of diverse persons for the repeal of the law
proliibiling the sale of inloxicating liquors,
and for the eiiaclment of a just and salulrrry
license law, having had said pelilions under
consideration, and heard lhelestimony of vu»
rious witnesses relative thcrclo, beg “mile to
report: -
That the courseol’ legislation in ibis stain,
for a long series of years, was first the regu-
lation rnllrer than prohibition, flint the sale
of intoxicating liquors, as a bevmrgo, has
never been regarded as a crime or a sin in il-
sell, but only as an evil under some condi—
tions and therefore legislation should be di-
rected to confining the sale within certain
fibrils, and resiricling it to certain persons
and places; and that even the so called
“Maine Law," allowsihe sale of liquor by
specific town agents for certain sepecial pur-
poses.
The majorily of your committee also find
that while lhe present prohibilory law Was
doubtless dcsignr (I to stop the guith Ill-
drunkenucss. and to prevent the sale of ill-
toxicaiing liquors. it has utterly failed in ac-
complish either of these results; that either,
because public opinion has failed lo sustain
the law, or, for the reason that prohibilory
legislation is contrary to the spirit of lhe ages
and distasteful lo the people of this Stair, ii
is certain first in all, except in a very sm-rll
portion of t..e Slate, lhe law has been for
years a dead letter, and there has been, in-
stead of a r'egulatcd trrfiic in ardent splrils,a
ractical unlicensed free trade in spirituous
iquurs, rind an-open,consfantnnd impunish-
ed violation of tireluw. Thai while it is true
that, within the past few months, there have
been efiorts made by secret orgfinizations,
with paid defectives, who purchased liquors
and then inform against the sclierdo enforce
the law, and that these prosecutions have in
some inslnnces been successful, it remains in
be seen whether, in many crses, a jury will
convictupou such testimony andlllat prosecu-
tious for this offence were more difficult to
sustain than any other.
It also appeared to the undersigned that a
large revenue might be sceun d lo the state
from this source, and that this ought not tu
be neglected, considering lhe pecuniary bur-
dens which the state is now bearing. , That
this source of revenue is recognized by every
government as one which the present nation-
al system of finance'botli permits licenses,
and from which is drawn no inconsidcrnhle
revenue. I! seemed. therefore lllul lhe gov-
ernment of lhe United Stales ought uni. to
have the benefit of' an income from cilizars
of this state, while our stale Ireausry was de-
prived of what its citizens would be ready lo
pay for like.privilegcs under a slate law, and
that, if it was right for the Congress of the
United States to aulhorize lhe is~uing of‘li-
causes for this lraflic, it might be well for the
stale of Connecticut to (lo-the arms.
The undersigned are of lhe opinion that u
slringcut and guarded license law, while it
would produce a revenue to lhe state, it
would also serve to regulate the traffic and
bring it into the hands of a more respcfablc
class of dealers, would close altogether the
haunts of the more vicious and depraved,
and would be better for the peace and' good
moralsof the Community, lhali the present
law which, while it preleuds lo bc prohibio-
ry, is, in practice, directly Opposite, Sinn- if
is disregarded with impunity, and violated
without fear of punishment.
In View of all these feels the undersigned
beg leave to recommend the repeal Of lhe
proliibiltiry law and the passage of lhe nc-
compnnicd bill. All of which is rcspccllully
submitted.

MINORITY REPORT OF COMMITTEE
ON THE SALE OF INTOXICATING
LIQUORS.
[Continued to lhe next session of the Gcncr
al Assembly, and ordered lo be primed
willi the laws]
GENERAL ASSEMBLY, l
Mav Session, A. D. 1867. f
The undersigned, being a minority of the
joint select committee on the sale of liquors,
l0 wh m w- re referred sundry bills and pe-
tifions respecting the sale of inloxicaiing
liquors, bog leave to report.
That after a full hearing of‘ lhe advocates
of a license law, and the friends of the pres-
ent prohibitory‘lnw, they have come to lhe
following conclusions:
Isl. That the principle ofzproliibiiion in re-
spect lo the sale of inloxicuiing liquors, as u
beverage is Iighl.
2nd. That the enforcement ol the present
law has uniloriuly been allendcd with the
happiest results in diminishing inlemperrmce
and crime in the State: that many portions
of the State this law has always been enforc-
ed, while nearly all recent attempts to en-
force ilrc law in difiereui pails of the Slate
have been countenanccd and slisiained, by all
the friends of law and good government, ir-
respective of parly.
3d. That while many of our citizens desire
the enactment of a more stringent prohbi-
tory law embodying llre Constabulary syl tern
of one of our sister States, and mlrer believe
it wise in break down some of the barriers
already existing against the unrestricted sale
of intoxicating liquors as a beverage, llieuu-
dersigiled tier-in it best to make still further
trial of the present law, which has provrrd in
many towns of the State to have born, from
the first, in the highest degree salutary, and
which, we belieVC will be found in be equal-
ly salutary in every pox-lion of the Slate.
4th. That in order to secure the most ben-
eficial results from the present prolribilui'y
law, we do not deem itcilher necessary or
desirable to make use of any other instru-
menlalities than such as are ordinarily em-
ployed to enforce any other penal law.

fire-ll your mother. I: wonder how
many girls tell their mother everything.
Not those “young ladies.” who, going to and
from school. smile, bow, and exchange no-
lice and carter dc visits: with young men,
who make fun of them and their pictures,
speaking in a way that would make their
checks burn wrlh shame if they heard it. All
this, .‘l'losl incredulous and romantic young
ladies, lhey will do, although they gaze at
your fresh young faces a‘dmiringly, and send
or give you charming verses and boqneis.
No matler what “other girls do," don’t you
do it. School-girls flirtaiions may end disas-
trously, as many a foolish, wretched young ,
girl could tell you. Your yearning for some
one to love is. a grcal need of every woman's
heart. But lherc is a time for everything.
Don’t leithe bloom andlrr-shness of yourheart
be brushed oil in silly flirlrilions. Render
yuui’sclf lmly. intelligent. Never be Albani-
ed to tell her, who a druid be your best friend
and confidante, all you think and feel. It is
very strung lhat so many young girls will
tell every person before “mother," that which
is most important that she should know. It
is very sad that indifferent persons should
know more about her own fair daughters
than she does herself. -

W110 NAirnD POINT J Conn—There has
~ beennplens'rnl legend handed down from
former times regarding the origin of the
name of that point of land known as Point
Judith, which Mr. Edmund Quincy, in his
life of Josiah Quincy, incidentally demolish-
es. The story as formerly told by fishermen
and Sound pilols, ran somewhat in this way.
A skipper who had the misfortune to lose
his compas, wp‘s drifting, after along voyage
in the waters of Narragansett Bay, when hi:
dangliler namrd Judith; possessing a pair 0
remarkably black eyes, discovered land, anr
her father not having such brilliant orbs, ex‘
claimed in his as er'ness,‘ “Point Judith

land, and, as the fishermen sa , the 186
was ever after known as Point ndilb. t a;
pears that Edmund Quincy, who died ove
two hundred years ago, left a daughter JI

the “.ill-rvpuied headland, the terror of a

of his wrle upon it. The present Edmui
Qumcy suggests;_“ll lhe good man can
