Gazing on a glorionaly beautiful land,
Vhere white-winged peace like a dove doth rest;
While the Master, with magic wand,
Scatters*h blessings on©very hand.

As I gazi on this landscape bright and fain

Framed in by mountains grand and old,
And hung up on the nails of arure air.
Sow my heart goes out to the purple hille,
And valleys smiling in the soft sunlight,
Vhose rippling streams and laughine rills
Dancing o’er the rocks in cascades bright,
Are singing forever a psalm of delight.

Float up where thy laurels their foilage spread.
And heroes are resting in Glory’s hallowed bed.

“Truman Harmony, you look sad,” said
[his Honor to the first prisoner out.
It was a tall, lathy, spindle-legged man,
.hose eyes had a hollow look, and whose
voice was that of a child crying out in
Jthe night for bread and butter with su-
|gar on it. Ho blew his nose in that off
hand manner which betrays a wounded
heart, and replied:
“Was I doing anything when they ar-
Irested me?”
“Yes, you were seated on a faded and
Itime-worn dry goods box, shedding tears
land sobbing like a pine tree in Novem-
|ber. When the officers asked you the
ause of your sorrow you wept the more,
fou refused to give your name and place
|bf residence, and believing you to be
either drunk or crazy, you were sleigh-
rided down here.”
“Is it agin the law to cry when a fel-
llow feels bad ?”
“I dont know as it i3, unless your sobs
[disturb the peace. Why did yon sor-
firow.”
“Cause 1 was sad.”
“And why were yefti sad ?”
“Cause I got to thinking.”
“About what?”
“About dead folks—and Heaven—and
Ipngets—and graves—and coffins 1”
“Was it pare and unadulterated sor-
jrow, or was it thres parts whisky and
fone.part sorrow ?”
“She was all sorrow, sir. It comes on
I me every time it looks like rain, and I
have to weep or bust, sir. It’s awful to
be sad, sir.”
“Yes, I think so. Next time you feel
ut coming on you had better write poetry
[to ease your bursting heart. That will
Stake the load away when even tears fail.”

|and placed it on the desk.
He had tried it, as follows :
-i,Li “SIM SAD XIIOTP.

Will ennybody caire ?
Will they laff as they pass my grave,
And forget that I was fare?”
Ilia Honor read the first verse, re

“Please go away. I’ll tell the officers
ot to disturb you any more.”
He went.
Mr. Hayes and the Senate.
In the Senate, when nominations for
ollector and postmaster at Mobile,
la., were under consideration, Hanni-
ial Hamlin, of Maine, called out to the
democratic side ofthe Chamber, “Why
on’t you take your President, and eon-
inn his nominations ?” Mr. Saulsbu-
y, of Delarware, retorted, quick as
bought, “We want none of your found
ings on this side.” Commenting on
his, the Washington correspondent of
he Boston Herald says:
'No incident that has hitherto co
rn rred has more strikingly demonstrat-
' d the absolute lack of any support for.
he Administration in the Senate. The
’resident is absolutely without any
riends in that body, who are worthy
>f the name of friends. The names in
>ach case are known to be respectable
Dominations, and Spencer’s motives in
opposing them are notoriously the
worst possible. He is opposed to them
oecause some of the scalawags who call
-homselves bis friends will not be
properly provided for if the President’s
lominations are confirmed. Yet, in
ipite of this fact, Spencer is able to
:ontrol the action of the Senate, for the
;ime being at least, and to prevent the
onfirrnation of the President’s nomi-
lations. It is understood that Presi-
ent Hayes is .considerably distressed
iy this persistent opposition in the
enate, and that he does not know
hat to make of it. He had expected
hat the opposition in the Senate would
adually die out, but he finds it stead-
ly increasing from day to Jay, al-
hough he is doing nothing special to
invoke it
_ On one occasion Charles Dickens was
I ipholding the theory that whatever
rials and difficulties might stand in a
an’s path, there was also something
o be thankful for. “Let me in proof
hereof,” said Dickens, “relate a story.
7wo men were to be hanged at New-
■ate for murder. The morning arrived;
[he hour approached; the bell of St.
epulchre’s began to toll; the convicts
rere pinioned; the procession was
formed ; it advanced to the fatal beam;
e ropes were adjusted around the
oor men’s necks. There were thou-
nds of motley sight seers of both
ixes, of all ages, men, women and
hildrett in front of the scaffold, when
st at that second of time a bull, which
as being driven to Smithfield, broke
ta rope and -charged the mob nght
,nd left, scattering people everywhere
ith its horns. Whereupon one of the
ndemnei men turned to his equally
nfortunate companion, and quietly
bserved, ‘I say, Jack, it’s a good thing
e ajn’t in that crowd■ ,
The Tribune, in view 'of-' the great
bopular victory, extends a hearty for
giveness even to the hardest-hearted
fhylocks, satisfied that in due time
ven’tbey will find it to the general
enofit that silver has been restored to
he money of the country.—Chicago
'-ibune.
Philadelphia .North Americen.
The two cent pieces were abolished
five years ago.
There are five times as many one
cent pieces used as threes.
Less than $10,000 of one cent pieces
were coined last year.
The old-fasliioned silver dollar has
not been made for five years.
The shipping of silver coins from the
mint began about a year ago.
No fives or threes (pickle) were
coined last year for circulation.
Silver is purchased at the rhint to a
limited extent. It is mid for in gold.
Double eagles are being made for the
depositories because they are more
salable.
Nickel and bronze coins are cnly
ma-’e in the United States mint in
this city.
The Eastern. Middle, and Western
States take most of the nickel and
bronze coins.
No silver is coined in subsidiary coin
for depositors. The Government coins
for itself alone.
In the South, the people are now using
one cent pieces and threes and fives
very extensively.
There is no coinage charged on gold.
The only charge is for parting, refining
and toughening.
Five times as many five cent pieces
;is ones are sent away, and five times
as many ones as threes.
No silver is exchanged for notes at
the mint. This is done by transfers
which come through Washington.
Two weeks ago nearly $300,000 it)
gold dollars were made for tbe sub-
Treasury Department of New York.
There are lying in the depositories
and vaults of the snb-Treasury in this
city nearly $300,000 in five cent nickel
pieces.
Five cent pieces are circulated con
siderably in Aew Orleans. Pennies
were recently sent to that city, which
were the first ever called for.
The largest number of early orders
for small coins came from the South
east. Recent orders are chiefly from
this section of tbe country.
A large amount of the $38,000,000 in
small coins circulated within ih? year
were manufactured during the same
period, and consequently the coins are
new.
The Government has issued over
$38,000,000 of small silver coins since
the redemption of fractional currency
began, and the market is fairly glutted
with them.
The demand for one cent pieces has
increased within the last three or four
months, and ibe demand for fives has
decreased. This is due to the issue of
so many dimes.
In brisk times the Mint pays out
from three to five thousand dollars
day for the accommodation of people
making change and for shipment
through the country.
No trade dollars have been made
this vear. Several millions were coined
in 1877. Their coinage was suspended
in December. They were only coined
to a limited extent for circulation.
Nickel and bronze are kept at par by
redeeming them in greenbacks. • They
are deposited in the mint in sums of
not less than $20, receipted for. and
checks sent to the depositor.
No silver cent pieces have been made
for five years. In fact, they have been
abolished, as well as the silver three
cent pieces. The nickel threes are still
issued, although but few are used.
From five to ten thousand dr,liars of
eagles, 1 eagles, 1 eagles, and S3 pieces
re made every y-ar in order to keep
up the history ofthe coin. About $2,-
000 of ones are made annually for the
same purpose.
The mint shipped over the country
in 187G about $500,000 in small coins,
consisting of one, three, and five cenP
pieces. They went chiefly West and
East. In 1877, only 7 about $380,000 in
these small coins were shipped.
The authorities at the mint can feel
the pulse of business by the amount of
coin sent in for redemption. If busi
ness is falling off the redemption is
larger. When it is steady the redemp
tion moves along at the rate of about
8500 a day.
The greatest demand for silver coins
is for the half dollar. The quarter dol
lar is the second favorite, and the dime
is the third and last in the list. The
demand for half dollars is twice as
great as for quarters, and five tin es
more halves are required than dimes.
When business is brisk in the city
about seven or eight hundred dollars a
day in change is required for nickel
and bronze. The railroad companies
are demanding more than usual on ac
count of the six-cent fares. . This de
mand, however, has fallen off some
what within the past few days.
Although more trade ' dollars were
coined from April, 1873, to December,
1S77, than were coined of the dollars of
the lathers for the eighty-one years
preceding, it does not follow that the
trade dqllar is popular. The trade dol
lar was intended for the China trade,
and nearly all that have been coined
have gone to China, Japan, and India.
