around her and seated her in the big chair he had been in. Then sat down close to her and gazed in her lovely face, and as we talked put his hand gently on hers and called her dearest and darling, and seemed perfectly to idealize her, and I felt that their relation in poetry was cold and barren compared to that in their daily life and I was happy to be with such lovely beings. But alas! Maria has a sad cough. Oh, what a misfortune it would be for the world if she were to pass away.... Maria talked more than I ever heard her before and I should never wish her to stop. She apologized for the aspect of James's room, but said it was much worse before he was married, at any rate. Whereupon James averred that she was like Admiral Van Tromp who carried a broom at his masthead. November 18, 1858 . . It is remarkable that James Lowell was . . . entirely unprepared for Maria L.'s death until a few days previous; she had been so frail so long, and he was so unable to entertain the

Ordered to leave. --Three free negroes, Maria, Harriet and Wm. Hill, were before the Mayor yesterday, for remaining in the city improperly, and on promising to leave Richmond by Monday morning, were discharged. These negroes are all from King William county, and have once before been directed to return to the place of their nativity. The Mayor is of the opinion that there are not less than one thousand free negroes from other towns and counties in the State, now remaining in Richmond, contrary to law, and he has determined to have them ferreted out by the police, and punish them by the lash every day they remain here. The free negro population as a mass are regarded as indolent and dishonest; and to prevent them from roving about, to the injury of slaves, the laws are to be executed to the letter.
