For The Chicnay Tribute Cnid as the berg of Polar seas, The splendor of ber Her lips are like a scarict thread, Cnstirred by smiles or sighs. A Jewel sparkles at her throat, Where never clings a rose; She moves as thouzp the world were hers, nd ordered as she chos Aginter and a frosty clean Are all that make her fair: To love ber would be more than you Wouid either dare or—care. A scintillating ginnce she darts From ber long-lidded eve; And straightway one starts, shivering, From thoughts of snakes that lie Coiled for a spring in grassy paths. You wonder if that mouth. red-tipped, Holds not, within, a fang-like tongue, ‘With deadly venom tipped. O fair but fatal damnsel. Thou canst not rob my heart of rost; No subtle. fascinating wile Can wake desire within my breast. Thouzh rou were twenty times as fair, should uot worship at your tvet; Though rou were only half as eo!d, Ishould tind nothing in you sweet. Some wiser und some better men Have owned the charm that I disdain; Bat. if it please your ladysuip. Tshuil not wear your silken chain.

During business hours there was no definit informations to the extent of the storm, and at one time ul intercourse with New York was cutoff. New York advices stated that Wabash was talked up on account of the prospective value of its Western extensions. Vanderbilt was reported te be buying Lake Shoro. The operat- ing expenses of this road have been increased 30 to 40 per cent by the winter wouther, but it has bad a most fortunate accession of coal business. Large amounts of anthracite coal in transit by water for the West were froven up in the canal and inke and had to be transshipped to the Lake Shore.

The grain markets started up early, as a consequence of the storm hore, with advices of atrength in Europe, but were scon depressed by very large offerings from purtics whoure xen- erally anxious to scllvon what they call 2 “weather bulge.” The receipts of produce were reduced by the storm, and the effuct wiil probably be felt more in that regard the early part of this week than it was on Saturduy.

A fair number of orders were re- ecived through the mails, but they for the most part remained unfilled, owme to the almost im- passable condition of the streets und the inter- ruption to freight trailie resulting from the storm. Dry-goods .mercbunts were fairly busy on recount of back orders, but there was littic new business. Tho same was true of grocers, clothing, and millinery goods dealers. and values were not subjected to any important change. There was some call from the loca) trade for dairy products, but beyond that little or noth- ing was acconiplisned. Goud to choice creamery butter sold at 8u@3Hi¢, and good to best dairy at 25@28c. Full cream cheese was at W@hic. Oils were Inactive and nominally unchanged. Lard, turpentine, and linseed were firmly held. Retnil coal dealers were doing little fn the way of till- ing orders, the condition of the streets render- ing it next to impossible tu deliver save in frac- tions of tons. Leuthor, bagging, tobucco, and pig-iron were nominally unchnnged. The Kinzio street markets were dull at our former quotations, excepting wool, in which a concession of about per ® bus been made on most grades. Eggs were slow ut about 18¢ per doz. Aslight advance bas been made in some descriptions of building materials. Hay was lifeless, there being few buyers on the market. Hops continue steady at the rates ruling for the past fortnight. ' Howard, White & Co., say: ‘There probly never Rus beon nreport of Tio pack ing of Chicago which has been more consistent wiih the net rec. ipix of hogs (exclusive of the arrivals by teams) than our report compiled of the business of the prevent winter season. ‘Iho following ble shows the excess of the reported packing during the winter seasons nnined over the net receipts: ?.

There ought to be no excess whatever. The number of bogs arriving in the city by teams and on foot is undoubtedly less than the number taken in tho careuss from the arrivals by rail, for city consumption. If the report were in regard to the number of hogs “cut up” in the city it would be auother thing entirely. The reports are about * packing " only.

Per contra, agentioman who was listening said afterwards that he knew of over a dozen letters which re- ported a great deal of corn down. AILof which suggests the Inwyer who lost his case and his client, though offering to call fifty witnesses. each of whom would swear that they did not sce the aforesald client commit a murder. A letter from Lemurs, Ia., says in substance: We received yesterday our first mall over the Central Railroad for the frst time since about Feb. 23. There was not much plowing done Inet fall on account of snow in October. A large quantity of corn is uncut and lying in the snow. The prospects are not flattering for the sowing of ‘small grain. The general opinion is that at icast balf the wheat or last crop is still in farmers’ bands. In Northera Towa and Southeastern Dakota at feast balf the smull grain is still unthrashed, and subject to great damage from the flood which fs sure to follow a thaw. Tbe fall uf snow bas been simply enor- mous. Our winter commenced with Oct. 15. I do not think we can expect to be out of the snow before April 15; which will make six months of winter. We are destitute of wood and coal, and consuming immense quautitios of corn for fuel., The railroads arejagain making strenuous efforts to open up; but, 1 fear, only to be blockaded again.

One morning, when Spring wasin her teens— A morn to a poet's wishing, All tinted in delicate pinks and greens— ‘Bliss Bessie and I went fishing: Iin my rough and ensy clothes, ‘With my face at the sunshine’s mercy; * She with her hat tipped down to ber nose, And her nose tipped—vice versa: L with my rod, my recl, and my hooks, And a haniper for luncbing recesses: She with the bait of her comely looks, And the seine of her golden tresses. So we sat down on the sunny dike, Where the white pond-lilics tecter, And I went to fishing like quaint old Ike, And she like Simon Peter.

WIG MACOMBER AND SAMANTHA MORRIS. Milford (Pa.) Correepondence New York Sun. There had been an elopement up the river, and some of the boys were sitting around the Crissman Louse stove talking about it, As the girl in the case was soon to have been married, the burden of the conversation was. the disappointinent and grief that must have overwhelned the deceived bridegroom, “Yes,” said the Sheriff, striking a match on his trousers leg and lighting the stub of his cigar for tho fifth time, “yes, the poor fellow must have felt bad; but what is his disappointinent to that of Wig Macomber,? I don’t know whether you ever knew Wig. He was a solemn cuss, and lived down in Ulster County. Ie was in love with a girl named Samantha né Morris, This was before the War.. They were engaged to be married. A fellar named Jim Aicher came tothe town where they lived. He was a tinker, and set upatin-shop. He fell in love with Samanth. I will call her Samanth now, butifshe were here I wouldr’t. VI tell you why. ayoung blood in those days, and ‘a mackerel snaked for a month couldn’t be any fresher than 1 was then, Not long after 1 went to the town I got ac- quainted with Wig. He took me over to see his girl une night, and introduced me. Be- fore £ went one of the boys said: “Yowll like Samantb. 1f you want to make 2 good impression, don’t betoo formal, Actasif you'd known her for two years, and she'll take to you.” “Wig and L wert tothe house. I saw at once that Miss Morris was a girl whose ap- petite must be good, and that she hadwt been raised on ice-cream and cake. She brought out some of her old man’s cider, That elder wasn’t Intended for boys to tamper with. There was $10 or ten days In every two glasses of it. I didn’t seem to get aloug with Miss Morris very well. [thought may be [wasn’t familiar enough. After I had drank two glasses of that cider 1 made up niy wind that I'd show her I didn’t come there to puton airs. She sat bya window. Ut was in July, and the window was up, ‘There was to be a festival in the Methodist Church, 1 walks over to where Samanth and stood in front of her, re you going to the festival, Samanth?” Then I thought to myself. *Thav’s familiar enough to suit her, 1 guess, and I siniled all over, P . “ Boys, Miss Morris gut up like 3 jack-in- the-box. She swatted me on the side of the head with her flathand. I dropped out of that window as if coal-train had struck me, and doubled up ina barrel of rainwater that stood under the window, As I crawled out Lsaw Smanth leaning out of the window. “<Samanth, is it? she yelled.” ‘You ever come ‘round these diggin’s again, an’ Pll git you upa_ festival, an’ you'll think they’re eraminin’ ice-cream down you red-hot’ “I found afterward that Samantha was a little tender on bemg. called Samanth, and the boys had played iton me. “Well, dim Archer set up his tin-shop, and fell in Jove with Samantha Jane Morris. She was a blame good-looking girl, if she was a little particular, and her old man_ had the rocks. Ifelt sorry when Samantha shook Wig Macomber and froze on to Jim, for Jim was a staving guod fellow, and one of the joys. fle used to set up with us and take a hand in our little 10-cent ante, four shillings limit, and generally held his own. “] remember a funny thing that came very near breaking up his mateh with Samantha, He sang in the choir of the Methodist Church. One Saturday night we had been holding a session at poker a little later than usaal, but Jim went to chureh all right Sun- aay morging. ‘Che preacher was a flowery young rooster, and when he began to preach, Jim tell into x doze. ‘fhe preacher preached along and grew eloquent. He began to de- scribeascene atdaybreak, ““*See where it comes,’ he said, ‘ the morn- ing, all aflush——’ | “Jim woke up just then. He'd been dreaming, 1 s’pose. “s\ flush?’ he said, loud enongh to be heard all over the church, old man; take the pot.” “Jim saw where he was, and walked out. Samantha was there. She got mad, and it tuok Jim a good while to fix things with her, ‘Shen they got married. Wig Macomber v all broke up over it, and he grew more sul- einn than ever, “Poor Jim died afew months afterward. He lett his widow $300, some second-hand stoves, and other store goods. Maybe you won't believe it, boys, but a year after that Wig was engaged to Samanta again, Then Frank Lawson came to town, and went to tending bar at the tavern. He hada black mustache and the bigzest wateh ehain I ever saw. Samantha met Frank ata picnic, and L hope to get shot if she didn’t break off with Wig again, and she and Frank were en- gaged. Wig was all bound up in that girl, and you can imagine how he felt, “Well, sir, while Frank and Samantha were spooning, who should conr town but a young fellow named Will V He was from Poughkeepsie, and we N ing inastore in town. You may think Dm stretching it, bat Pl treat if he didn’t expt ure Samantha. tter she had given Wig the slip for ¥: Lawson, Wig wouldn't speak to Frank, he felt so cut up. When Frank got the grand bounce, I remember see- ing Wig meet him in the street. He went up to Frank in his solemn way, and without a word shook hands with him and passed on, ‘That was a comical sight, and no mistake, “Tr wasn’t long before It was noised about, that Samantha and Wiggins were to be mar- ried. Frank Lawson went away, but Wig stuek toit. Well, Samantha, didn’t marry Will Wiggins. He got full of beer one aft- ternoon, and the boys put him to bed. He slept until nearly daylight next morning. He looked at his wateh. It was_half-past 5. He thought it was halt-past 5 in_ the after- noon of the day he went to bed. He was to eat supper at Samantha's house at, 6 o’clock the same atternoon. Je dressed himself and hitrrled down to the house. He thought it was funny there weren’t any lghts in the house, but he knocked and banged at the door. Pretty soun a window was raised up- stairs. ‘“*\Vho’s that down there, and what are ye bangin’ at that door far” “Tt was Samantha’s mother’s voice. “<Why, ve come to supper,’ said Will. *Ain’t you well, Mrs. Morris 2” “Mrs. Morris came down-stairs. | She opened the front door. .Mr. Wiggins found that Mrs. Morris was quite well. “The match swas broken off, and if you ever wanted to see aman get up and hop, all you had to do was toask Will Wiggins to take supper with you. oN see here, boys. [don’t want you to be suspicious of what Pm going to telt you, for it’s the ironclad truth, and if you ever go down in Ulsier County they’tl tell you the same.

He’ w much older than Wig Macomber. He lived up the Rondout Creek, and. had about $25,000 stowed away. He had written Wig a letter after each one of Wie’s little set-backs with Samanatha, kind o’ making fun of him. That racher riled Wig, and he thought he would get even with his uncle by inviting him down to see him ‘A flush is good, | married. Uncie Job didn’t have much to do just then, and he came down a couple of weeks before the wedding-day ‘to kind —.o? get acquainted with his new relations, he said. Boys, it’s a solemn fact, and a hard one to ve, but if Wie's Unelo Job didn cus tim out with Samantha I hope to holler, Cut him out dead, and, more than that, married her, “Disappointed? Wig was all tore to strings. ‘Talk about this young fellow up the river whose girl ran away with another man!

A real clean, nice-looking old couple were at the Union depot yesterday to take a train going south. The husband was nearly 70 years old and pretty lively, and the wife was only a year or two behind him, with a voice ‘that meant business every time she opened her mouth. There was considerable politi- cal talk around the depot, and the old man at once became interested. “Tye been over in Canada in the woods for the last two weeks, and L-hadn’t heard a thing,” he explained. *‘ Is the election over with 2”? “ Yes,” replied one of the men. “ Many riots and knock-downs?” “ Thousands of them.” “T used tobe the worst man around the polls you ever see,” continued the old gent as he Spit on his hands, “I’ve seen the time it took four Constables to hold ine.” “Peter, what are you doing here?” asked. the old Jady as she suddenly appeared, “Finding out about politics,” “What kind??? “All kinds,” “Well, you let politics alone and come inte the waiting-rooin.” “Purty soon.

HOW TO GET A WIFE IN INDIA. TAfe in Bombay. When a man in a decent rank of life wishes to marry, and can prove that he possesses the means of maintaining a wife, it is customary for him to apply to the mistress of the By- culla School, state his wishes and qualifica- tions, and inquire into the number and char- acter of the marriageable girls, An investi- gation immediately follows as to eligibility; and, if all promises satisfactorily, he is forth- with invited to drink tea with the schoolmis- tress upon an appointed evening, to give him an opportunity of making his selection. The elder girls are then informed of his intended visit and its purport; and those who desire to enter the matrimonial lists come forward and signify their wish to join the party. Frequently four or five competitors make their appearance on these occasions in the iistress’ room. The gentleman, while doing his best to make himself universally agreeable, yet contrives, in the course of the evening, to mark his preference for one particular lady. Should. these symptums ot budding affection be favorably re- ceived, he tenders his proposals int due form on the following morning. But it often occurs that the selected lady does not participate in the inamorato’s sudden flame, in which ease she is at perfect iiberty to de- cline the honor of his alliance, and reserves herself for the next tea-party exhibition. We have known an instance when an am- orous old gentleman from an_out-station presented himself three successive times at these soirées in the hope of obtaining a wife to cheer the solitude of his up-country resi- dence, but all in vain; the young ladies unan- imously rejected him with the highest dis- dain, wondering “how such an ugly old fellow could have the impudence to think of a wife?” But a very different recep- tion is given to the dashing young Ser- geant or smari-lookin’s conductor; their at- Tentions are never repulsed, and the announce- ment of the “chosen intendeds,” as Miss Saqueers would say, is anticipated with the ut- most impatience by many an anxious youne heart. The wedding speedily follows, the bride’s modest.“ trousseau” being provided from the funds of the establishment, and every girl in the school cheerfully contrib- uting her aid in the manufacture of the dresses. SOME FAMOUS DRESSES. Demorest’s Monthly: Magazine, In thespring of 1793, after the execution of of Louis XVI, which took place on Jan. 21, 1793, and was followed by that of Marie An- toinetteon Oct. 16 of the same yeur, it was decreed vy order of the Court that the furni- ture and all else that remained in the Palace of the Tuileries was to besold. The sale lasted six months, and had it not been stopped, would have lasted six months Jonger. At this sale, Pierre de 1a Riviere, of Nor-- mandy, Minister’ of Foreign Affairs, pur- chased three dresses belonging to Queen Marie Antoinette. These became the prop- erty of his son, who reimuved to San Do- mingo, from which plies he fled during the Jast insurrection to Philadelphia. a ‘The three dresses purchased at this sale were blue, purple, and the present one, old- gold color, all of them richiy embroidered. They descended to hisdaughter, Mine. Remie Mignot, of Charleston, 5. C., the granddaugh- ter of Pierre de la’ Riviere, who afterward married M. Rutjes, of Charleston, From her the gold-colored «tress descended to one of her daughters, Miss Rutjes, now Mrs. Charchill, from whom it was purchased by Mine. Demorest in 1879. This interesting souvenir is pale-yellow satin, the color mel- lowed by age to an old-gold tint, richly em- broidered In bouquets and garlands of flowers in natural colors. which to a remark- able degree retain their original brilliancy. The genuineness of this dress is beyond question, and can be fully substantiated, ‘She blue dress became the property of a daughter of Mine. Mignot, who married and removed to Holland, and was made into a suite of furniture now in the possession of her husband, at Eindhoven, Holland, near frontier of Belgium. ‘fhe purple dress, after hayme been in the possession of a sister of Mime.

The following story fs told of a two-story brick house, in the snburbs of Boston, whose doors and windows are nailed up, and which has never been occupied: ‘“ Nearly thirty years azo a young man built it for his bride, intending to mortgage it and pay for it grad- ually as his worldly goods increased, to all | of which she axreed. When the wedding- day was appointed, the trousseau ready, and the house finished, he took the fady out from Boston to inspect it After going over che house, be presented her with adeed of it for a wedding gift, Knowing his citcum- stances, she was astonished that he had actually paid for it. He explained that, buying a ticket in a lottery, he had drawn the first prize, which just covered the cost of the house, The Puritan maiden protested she would not take a home obtained by gambling and_ refused the deed. His arzu- Inents were of no il; she remained ob- durate. When they ieft the house he locked the door and threw the key into the brook nearby. The next day he boarded up the windows, and only the spiders and mice have ever occupied it The man never married; he became rich, but is a wanderer on the face of the earth. ‘The woman never married; she is living, poor and an invalid” ~ FEMININE NOTES.
