*U THE OLD STOBY.
I tu a *emu, and I’d a hoaK,
And I raved at lon aod conataaay,
And he Mw the to my eyeiide itart,
For ha tm the world to ui» !
He whiopered low when Uoe Spring time
... flew,
Os the tangled path* ia which men etray,
And around me ail hi* anno he threw,
ili» eyee ware on fire that day.
We parted : yee ! hut I olung to h e,
And I put ap my Hp* «« ho hi*je.l »S» ,n ?
Bat the laughing eyea of the heaven grew
dim,
And were ewollen black with rain.
They came to me when my lover was gone,
And oaid he was pour and toiled for
bread } i. ■
They talked of ruin end tear* alone,
And my heart was dull as lead.
And when they laid the bribe at my feet,
’Twee the same old tale that is often
told;
They played on the strings of my heart s
conceit,
And daisied my eyes with gold.
I sold myself to a loveless thing,
And I walked to the altar, and there I
lied;
For my heart was away with tho primrose
spring,
And 1 by my husband's side.
And now you ask me what of the lie ?
I’ve paid full dear for my girlish greed ;
•Twere belter, I think, for a woman to die
Than to live the life I lead.
I am alone, but still I can sing,
And pray for the ruin of Winter's rain,
For the scent of the primrose-crown of
SpriDg,
Will return to me again.

OUR CHILDREN.
“A child is born; now take tho gem and
make it
K bud of moral beauty. let the dews
Os knowledge, and the light of virtue,
wake it
In richest fragrance and in purest hues ;
For soon the gatbvriug of death will break
it
From its weak stem ot life, and it shall
lose
All power to charm ; but if that lovely
flower
Hath swelled ono pleasure, or subdued one
pain,
Oh ! who shall say that it has lived iu vain ?”
UrsETTixu op Titi.es is the South.—
Commenting on the Preamble of the
Congressional Reconstruction Rill,
which declares that “ tio legal State
governments exist in the rebel States of
Virginia,” etc., the New York Journal
of Commerce says:
If there be no legal State govern
ments, then everything done in the legis
lature or courts, or in any other depart
ments of these governments, are void.
The judgments obtained in their courts
are void ; the criminals confined in
their prisons, by sentence pronounced in
the State courts, are entitled to imme
diate discharge. There must be a
general jail delivery. These are the
necessary consequences of illegal State
governments.
Cavet.s Borx ix Captivity.—A
Cheltenham (Eng.) paper says: “An
Arabian or single hump f{Hi and a
p.<,,rinn or double humped camel, noth
belonging to Mrs. Wombwell’s menagerie,
Lave just given bint, to calves. The
Hauimm camel is particnlnrly fond of
its baby, and is nursing it well, covering
it up with its long inane when it lies
down. The Arabian camel is rather
spitelul, and Mr. Fairgrieve was com
pelled to take the calf from her, as she
threatened to kill it. He immediately
procured a feeding bottle, and is bring
ing the calf up admirably with milk
from the mother, put into the bottle.
The father of both the camels is a very
large double humped Baetrian camel,
aud is considered the largest and hand
somest in Britain. There have been
only four camel calves horn in Britain,
and what makes this the more curious
is the two births taking place within
half an hour of each other. Mr. Fair
grievc has named the male calf “Robert
Burns,” ns *it was born on the great
Scottish bard’s birthday.
Dax Rice's Last.— Dan Rice remit
ted, in settlement of an account with a
newspaper out West, a three dollar bill
which was returned endorsed, ‘This
note is counterfeit; please send an
other.” It was two months before Dan
replied, when he apologized for the delay,
saying he had been unable until now
* to get another counterfeit three dollar
bill,” but he hoped the one he now en
closed would suit, professing at the
same time, his inability to discover what
the objection was to the other, which he
thought as good a counterfeit as he ever
saw.
Dr. Franklin's celebrated receipt for
cheap sleigh riding rnns as follows : Sit
in the hall in your night clothes, with
both doors open, so that you can get a
good draft, put your feet in a pail of
ice water, drop the front door key down
your back, hold an icicle in one hand
and ring the tea-bcll with the other. He
says you can’t tell the difference with
your eyes shut, and its a great deal
cheaper.
—A drunken fellow had wandered
into a Sunday School, and taken a seat
among the primer scholars, when the
teacher accosted him with: “Why,
James, do you know what a condition
yon are in ?” “ Yes, m’m, in th’ gall of
bin’nest, ’n the dept’s 'f ’oiquity. Ask
me some hard quesh'n."
—The Princess of Wales has her third
baby, a daughter, born on Wednesday,
the 20th. She has been married not
four years, and has three children,
which is doing as well as could be ex
pected of any princess.
—Mr. Bolts has just recovered a horse
which was stolen from him early in the
lv&r. Although Botts has recovered his
horse, it the horse has the hots he is
past recovery.

Al GI'tJTA, OA.. *UtunUjvNo°P, |
J(p» It should be km** in mind that oar quo
tat tun* represent whoUtal* price*. Small bills, to
Plantar* and others, are JiUed at a shad* higher
RKMABIts.
Bu*lnea» ha* b««n only moderately adfre dnrlfig
the week, excepting in the receipt* and aalea of
Corn, which have been large. Until |he la*t day or
two, arrival* were freely taken at Bill rate*, but
there i* now •• eaaier feeling, and the large ship
ment* on the way will probably atrike a dull and
declining market. Stock* of other Weateiu pro
duce and provision* appear to be comiug In a liute
In excess of the demand. Ihia is especially true
of Oata, which are plenty and eery dull—the de
mand fbr sowing being over. Cotton, which was
dull and declining at the cloae of last week, con
tinued to give way until about the middle of the
week, when it reached the lowest point of the
season—Middling being at me time as low as 2»h
ceuta. During tb* last three days there has been
a better feeling, and prices have improved.
It is, perhaps, idle to attempt to account for the
fluctuations iu this staple—the late decline being
against the previous judgment of the most saga
oious »ueu in (he trade. Prostration in Manchester,
end the large receipt* on this aide, are, perhaps,
the leading causes of the decline in Liverpool; but
the scarcity of money at the South, and the con
tinued agitation* iu Congress, render our markets
quite at the mercy of the combinations of manu
facturers and speculators, notwithstanding the
general lietief thru the crop will not be as large as
past receipts indicate, or equal to the wants of
trade for the season. The Cotton grower who has
grain and bacon to buy can not wait to realize the
value of his crop near the close of the season, and
we believe the resolution is general—at least in
this section —to plant less Cotton, and pay more
attention to fall supplies of food, end thus render
the planting interest in a greater degree inde
pendent of the influences to which wc have re
ferred.
The receipts at aU the ports, at the latest mail
dates, amount to 1,293,907 bales; stocks on hand,
509,711 bales. The amount of Cotton in sight at
interior points, added to the receipts, makes about
1,410,000 bales. The receipts for the last week
show a very material falling off, and there is
nothing to iudicate that the crop will much exceed
1,750,000 bales.
FINANCIAL.
There is nothing new or cheering iu the Financial
aspect of the country. Notwithstanding the pro
position of Congress to increase the currency
?100,0UU,000, the political affairs of the South are
kept in such an uncertain condition that little of
the surplus means of the great commercial centres
find investment here, while the fluctuations iu
Oold are felt more seriously here than elsewhere,
because less subject to our control. Our last quo
tations were 13b to 140 for Gold, and 130 to 133 for
Silver. There was an advance early in the week,
which has been maintained, with little variation,
aud we quote at the close as follows:
Gold, buying 1 40
Gold, selling 1 42
Silver, buying l 32
Silver, selling 1 37
The Banks continue to check on the North at par
Brokers charge *4 to off: thirty day bills I>4
per cent, off; sixty day bills off. Loans on
outside paper are made at 3 per cent, a month,
aud even higher rates.
PROVISIONS.
BACON.—There is but little inquiry, and prices
are easier. We have revised our quotations, to
which we refer.
FLOUR —Is in only moderate request, and prices
are unchanged. The City Mills continue to supply
the principal demand, which is almost entirely
local.
LARD—Is in fair demand at 15j*(3il6c. for Prime
I.eat" in barrels; half barrels, smaller
packages are u shade higher.
t BUTTER.—The market is well supplied with
Northern and Western brands, and prices are
rather easier. Country Butter has declined, and is
in only moderate request at 25@30c.
EGGS —The markefc’is glutted, and prices have
declined to 15 cents.
GRAIN.
CORN.—The demand for Corn was quite active
during the early part of the week, but for the lust
two days market has been rather weak and
irregular, and lower prices are looked for. bales
have been made at $1.40, hack* returned— and at
51.42dt1.45 from the depot, though the usual price
from store is still $1.50.
OATS' —Have decliued 10@20c. on the week.
The demand for seed is over, and the market is
overstocked. Round lots can be bought at 35£i90c.

thousaud, delivered.
TOBACCO.—There is e good demand for Com
mon and Medium grades, at the prices quoted
elsewhere. Fine and fancy brands are in but little
request. Our quotations include taxes.
COTTON.
We left the market dull and irregular at the
close of our last review, when Middling to Strict
Middling were quoted ut 30c.; Good Middling to
Middling Fair, 31c. In the afternoon, advices of a
farther decline in Liverpool unsettled the market,
and quotations were not given. The saies reported
- embracing :*.h*o those of Friday —w ere 194 bales
Receipts, ibid bales.
On Monday, the market continued dull—Middling
to Strict Middling, 29c.; Good Middling, 3Uc.
Sales, 182 bales. Receipts, 245 bales.
On Tuesday, there was a farther decline, and 177
bales were sold at lor Middling; Strict Alid
dlieg to Good Middling, 29@2!%c. Receipts, 107
bales.
On Wednesday, the market opened weak, but
advanced during the day half to one cent. Sales,
370 bales. Receipts, 100 bales.
On Thursday, there was a still farther improve
ment, but buyers and sellers could not generally
agree, aud only 124 bales were sold, ut Lite, for
ADddling; for Strict to Good Middling.
Receipts, 131 bales.
On Friday, there was a good demand, and all
that was offered was freely taken at hardening
prices. 'Jhe market is in a condition which hardly
justifies quotations, but the sales indicate about
30c. for Strict and 30>.(ci3lc. for Good
Middling to Middling Fair. Sales, 200 bales. Re
ceipts, LU4 bales.
The market presents no new features this morn
ing, ;md we refer to the ruling rates of yesterday,
as the only quotations we cun give at the close of
our report.
