EVENING STAR. FARE THEE WILL. This beautiful production, says the New York Atlas, is copied from the works of a well known, noble bard, at the request of a lady, who we do not often feel inclined to disappoint. do not think that there will be found in the whole world an indi vidual who will not appreciate the superior merit of the production. Fate thee well! and if forever, Still forever, fare thee well! Even though unforgiving, never 'Gainst thee shall my heart rebel. Woula that breast were bared before thee, Where thy head so oft hath lain, While that placid sleep came o'er thee, Which thou ne'er canst know again: Would that breast, by thee glanced over, Every inmost thought would show! Then thou wouldst at last discover 'Twas not well to ipum it bo. Though the world for this commend thee. Though it smile upon the blow, Even its praises more offend thee, Founded on another's woe. Though my many faults defaced mc, Could no other arm be found Than the one which once embraced me, To inflict a cureless wound ? Yet, oh yet, thyself deceive not, Love may sin It by slow decay, But by sudden wrench, believe not Hearts can thus be torn away ; Still thine own its life retaineth. Still must mine ; though bleeding, beat ;* And the undying thought which paineth, Is.that we no more may meet. These are words of deeper sorrow Than the waul above the dead; Bot i shall live, but every morrow Wakes us from a widowed bed. And when thou wouldst solace gather, When our child's first accents flow, Will thou teach her to say " Father!" Though his care she must forego ? When her little hands shall press thee, When her lip to thine is prest, Think of him whose prayer shall bless thee, Think of bun thy love had blessed r Should her lineament * resemble Those thou never more mayst see, Then thy heart will softly tremble With a pulse yet true to me. AH my faults perchance thou knowest, All my madness none can know ; All my hopes, where'er thou goest, Whither.yet with thee they go. Every feeling hath been shaken; Pnde, which not a world could bow, Bows to thee.by thee forsaken, Even my soul forsakes me now: But 'tis done.all words are idle. Wo'ds from me are vainer still; But the thoughts we cannot bridle Force their way without the will. Fare thee well!.thus disunited, Tom from every nearer tie, Sear'd in heart, and lone, and blighted. More than this, 1 scarce can die. The Down-Town Beggar Girl. It was two full hours after the carriage had left the up-town palace, when a little forlorn creature held out her bony hand.in front of the large white building cornering on Broad¬ way and Chambers street.to solicit a meagre penny of the passers-by. The little girl was go thinly clad you could see the outline of her half starved little frame. The day was blus¬ tering, and the wind seemed to penetrate to her very heart, as she stood there holding out that miserable mite of a hand, more like a bird's claw than a human hand. An elaborately dressed lady, blazirg in satin Aid jewelry, came out of the building. "Please, lady, one penny".spoke the little weak, timid voice. But the lady merely glanced at the shiver* ing little morsel of humanity, remarking to her oompanion that she wondered what the «» authorities permitted such objects to block up the way for; for streets ought to be cleared of such nuisances." Jest then a dirty rag picker, who had been busily engaged in picking over some offal in the gutter. pro ached. The enteprising searcher affSfcbits ef linen stopped and hesi¬ tated ; it was, however, but for a moment. He fumbled in his dirty, ragged pockets, brought forth a coin, and dropped it into the Utile girl's hand. (4I>kI you see that manuvre,'1 spoke the Tolceof the heartless beauty, from the car¬ riage, M she again addressed her friend " It ia the old adage of the blind leading the blind, illustrated with cuts," and the lovely Mrs. C. laughed at he own wit. " I did see it," replied the friend, stepping out of the carriage again. " Wait a moment;" and the friend re-entered the large building, returned in a moment with a neat little shawl, which she threw over the shoulders of the lit¬ tle girl, and handing her a half dollar, disap¬ peared in the carriage beside her scornful friend Mrs. C. A whole half dollar!.it was more than the little ereature had ever had in her life. " But won't mother, and sissy, and baby and I have a good dinner," thought she, as .he sought the wretched place she called her home, to show her new shawl and the prize in jnoney.

HOOVKR bu fitted up ki attractive style a the large and spacious store in Iron Hall, Pa avenue, between 9th and 10th street*, and furnishei it with perhaps the largest and bwt selected stock of Boots and Shoes ever exhibited in this city. It is hi? determination to make this establishment excel in all particulars every other of the kind in the country. With this view he has made arrange mente for a regn ar supply of every article in his line of business with the most celebrated manufac¬ turers fn this country, and in future every variety of Boots and Shoes tor Ladies, Gentlemen, Children and Servants may hetf he found at the very lowest prices. I beg leave to refer to the following commend ations of tills extensive establishment from the Wa<|hlngton press: Hoove*'8 8hob Stom..Yesterday we made a visit to the place of business of Mr. S. P. Hoover, in that imposing structure, the Iron Building, on Pennsyl¬ vania avenue, between 9th and 10th streets. We have given this notice the modest caption of 8hoe Store; but we oan truly say that H is a most invit¬ ing, and even magnificent, establishment.one high¬ ly creditable to the city and to the taste and enter¬ prise of the proprietor. We doubt if there is any of the large business marts of the country an estab¬ lishment of the kind more extensive, oonvenient, or beautifu'i than the one it is our pleasure to notice. The stock of Mr. Hoover is large, and ladies and gentlemen can procure shoes and boots of the most superior quality and at moderate prices. The en terprise of Mr. Hoover should be rewarded by a discriminating public.. Washington Union. Ibok Hall Boot and Shoe Saloon .This establish* ment, just opened by Mr. S. P. Hoover, is one of the most extensive in the United States, the saloon being one hundred and thirty feet, with twenty-five feet front. Entering, one observes a long line of el egantly made shelves and counters, filled with the fashions oi the day in the line. Io the rear is the ladies' department, which is carpeted with three ply carpeting, seats and cushions covered with French moroco, and, that the dear creatures ma; a themselves in all their beauty, as oth*rs see them, a magnificent mirror is suspended for their accommo¬ dation. The mirror, Including the rich frame, is eight feet high and three feet and a half wide. Sere is, therefore, an unequalled boot and shoe aloon, and the stock therein is at least equal to any in style and manufacture. We were surprised to find so many varieties. There were ladies' high heeltxl Gaiters, Congress and Button Gaiters, with and without heels; ladies' .HJlicerious" slippers, enam¬ elled toilet, carpet, black and bronze French kid and morocco slipper?, Jeffersons and ties, morocco boo+s of all colors, Ac., to suit every taste of the fair purchasers. For gentlemen, there are patent leath¬ er and calf skin boots, kid lop and cloth Congress Gaiters, English patent leather and low quartered shoes. Suitable for boys we found youths' patent leather heeled pumps, button leather gaiters, Mun roes, Oxford and English ties, fine calf skin and cork soled boots. For girls, he has also a rich and general variety; and for infants and small children the beautiful little foot coverings are quite elegant. We were also shown an assortment of excellent shoes for servants. These, with boot-hooks, button books, and shoe horns, all kinds of trunk, carpet¬ bag*, umbrellas, and other articles "to numerous to mention," as Shakspeare says, constitute the materi¬ al of this magnificent addition to the fine stores on Pennsylvania avenne. The stock is both of home and foreign manufacture, of the best, and sold as cheap as such understandings ean be bought in the Northern cities .Evening Star. Niw and Splindid Snoi Store..Mr. 8. P. Hoover h»ving removed from his old stand to a new ani el- store in Iron Hall, is now prepared to wait upon his customers in an establishment that is most ad¬ mirably fitted up and well stocked with the most fashionable and substantial articles in bip line of business. This new store, which is said to be the largest of the kind in this country, is 130 feet long and about 25 feet wide. The carpenter's work was executed by Messrs.

TRANSCRIPT

EVENING STAR.FARE THEE WILL.

This beautiful production, says the New YorkAtlas, is copied from the works of a well known,noble bard, at the request of a lady, who we do notoften feel inclined to disappoint. W« do not thinkthat there will be found in the whole world an individual who will not appreciate the superior merit ofthe production.

Fate thee well! and if forever,Still forever, fare thee well!Even though unforgiving, never

'Gainst thee shall my heart rebel.Woula that breast were bared before thee,Where thy head so oft hath lain,While that placid sleep came o'er thee,Which thou ne'er canst know again:Would that breast, by thee glanced over,Every inmost thought would show!Then thou wouldst at last discover'Twas not well to ipum it bo.

Though the world for this commend thee.Though it smile upon the blow,Even its praises more offend thee,Founded on another's woe.

Though my many faults defaced mc,Could no other arm be foundThan the one which once embraced me,To inflict a cureless wound ?Yet, oh yet, thyself deceive not,Love may sin It by slow decay,But by sudden wrench, believe notHearts can thus be torn away ;

Still thine own its life retaineth.Still must mine ; though bleeding, beat ;*And the undying thought which paineth,Is.that we no more may meet.

These are words of deeper sorrowThan the waul above the dead;Bot i shall live, but every morrowWakes us from a widowed bed.

And when thou wouldst solace gather,When our child's first accents flow,Will thou teach her to say " Father!"Though his care she must forego ?

When her little hands shall press thee,When her lip to thine is prest,Think of him whose prayer shall bless thee,Think of bun thy love had blessed rShould her lineament * resembleThose thou never more mayst see,Then thy heart will softly trembleWith a pulse yet true to me.

AH my faults perchance thou knowest,All my madness none can know ;All my hopes, where'er thou goest,Whither.yet with thee they go.Every feeling hath been shaken;Pnde, which not a world could bow,Bows to thee.by thee forsaken,Even my soul forsakes me now:

But 'tis done.all words are idle.Wo'ds from me are vainer still;But the thoughts we cannot bridleForce their way without the will.

Fare thee well!.thus disunited,Tom from every nearer tie,Sear'd in heart, and lone, and blighted.More than this, 1 scarce can die.

The Down-Town Beggar Girl.It was two full hours after the carriage hadleft the up-town palace, when a little forlorn

creature held out her bony hand.in front ofthe large white building cornering on Broad¬way and Chambers street.to solicit a meagrepenny of the passers-by. The little girl wasgo thinly clad you could see the outline of herhalf starved little frame. The day was blus¬tering, and the wind seemed to penetrate toher very heart, as she stood there holding outthat miserable mite of a hand, more like abird's claw than a human hand.An elaborately dressed lady, blazirg in

satin Aid jewelry, came out of the building."Please, lady, one penny".spoke the littleweak, timid voice.But the lady merely glanced at the shiver*

ing little morsel of humanity, remarking toher oompanion that she wondered what the«» authorities permitted such objects to blockup the way for; for streets ought to be clearedof such nuisances."

Jest then a dirty rag picker, who had beenbusily engaged in picking over some offal inthe gutter. proached. The enteprisingsearcher affSfcbits ef linen stopped and hesi¬tated ; it was, however, but for a moment.He fumbled in his dirty, ragged pockets,brought forth a coin, and dropped it into theUtile girl's hand.

(4I>kI you see that manuvre,'1 spoke theTolceof the heartless beauty, from the car¬riage, M she again addressed her friend " Itia the old adage of the blind leading the blind,illustrated with cuts," and the lovely Mrs. C.laughed at he own wit.

" I did see it," replied the friend, steppingout of the carriage again. " Wait a moment;"and the friend re-entered the large building,returned in a moment with a neat little shawl,which she threw over the shoulders of the lit¬tle girl, and handing her a half dollar, disap¬peared in the carriage beside her scornfulfriend Mrs. C.A whole half dollar!.it was more than the

little ereature had ever had in her life." But won't mother, and sissy, and babyand I have a good dinner," thought she, as

.he sought the wretched place she called herhome, to show her new shawl and the prize injnoney. Happy little beggar!

Thedisease was of three years standing, began in theright cheek, which is partially consumed. He was. sufferer with constant pain, wnich has entirelyleft him.This case will give your preparation a popularity

in Britain which no other medicine has. Direct toWilliam Dick, Esq, Collydean, by Leslie Scotland,in care ot Messrs. Penfoed, Clay & Co., Druggists,N. York, who will forward it.

We doubt if there is any ofthe large business marts of the country an estab¬lishment of the kind more extensive, oonvenient, orbeautifu'i than the one it is our pleasure to notice.The stock of Mr. Hoover is large, and ladies andgentlemen can procure shoes and boots of the mostsuperior quality and at moderate prices.
