THE CI.OMKC SCEffB-
UY T. It- REAP-
The following is P ron «^blJ 7 the finest Ame”
ster Review to be unquesiio y
ican poem ever written:
Like some tanned reaper in his hour of eas^,
When all the fields are lying brown and bare.
0
The gray barns looking from their hazy l”lls,
O’er the dun waters widening in the vales.
Sent down the air a greeting to the mills,
On the dull thunder of alternate flails.
All sights were mellowed, and all sounds subdued,
The hills seemed further and the streatn **ang
As in a dream the distant woodman hewed
. His winter log, with many a mufited blow.
The embattled forests, erewhile armed with gold,
Their banners bright with every martial hue,
Now stood like some sad, beateu host of old,
Withdrawn afar in Time's remotest blue.
On sombre wings the vulture tried his flight;
The dove scarce heard his sighing mate’s com
plaint ;
And, like a star slow drowning in the light.
The village church vane seemed to pale and faint.
The sentinel cock upon the hill-side crew
Craw thriee-sand all was stiller than before;
Silent, till some replying warder blew
His alien horn, anil then was heard no more.
Where erst the jay within the elm’s tall crest.
Made garrulous trouble round her unfledged
young:
And where the oriole hung her swaying nest,
By evefy light wind like a censer swung :
Where sang the noisy martins of the eaves,
The busy swallows circling ever near—
F> reboding. as the rustic mind believes,.
An early harvest and a plenteous year:
Where every bird that waked the vernal feast.
Shook the sweet slumber from its wings at morn:
To warn the reaper of a rosy East:
All now was sunless, empty and forlorn.
Alone, from out the stubble, piped the* quail:
And croaked the crow through all the dreaTy
gloom: _ *
Alone, the pheasant, drumming in the vifle.
Made echo in the distant cottage loom.
There was no bud, no bloom upon the bowers;
The spiders moved their thin shrouds night by
night.
The thistle-down, the only ghost of flowers.
•Sailed slowly by—passed noiseless out of sight.
Amid all this—in this most dreary air,
And where the woodbine shed upon the porcli
Its crimson leaves, as if the year stood there.
Firing the floor with its inverted torch.
Amid all this—the centre of the scene.
The white haired matron with monotonous tread,
Plied the swift wheel, and with her joyless mien
Sat like a fate, and watched the flying thread
She had known sorrow. He had walked with her,
Oft supped, and broke with her the ashen ciust,
And in the dead leaves still she heard the stir
Of his thick mantle trailing in the dust.
While yet her cheek 'was bright with summer
bloom,
Her country summoned and she gave her all:
And twice war bowed to her sable plume—
Re-gave the sword to rust upon the wall. .
Re-gave the sword, but not the hand that drew
And struck for liberty the dying blow:
Nor him who, to his sire and country true,
Fell ’mid the ranks of the invading foe.
Extra.rugancc in Acw 1 ork.—A. New
York letter Says:
As winter approaches, the reign of ex
travagance, iu fashionable circles seems to
be bent on more astonishing developments.
What do you think of $S00 per month for
a funUseed house in the Fifth Avenflfi, as
Far up as the Ctentral I’aik ? said houses
being about 19 by 25 feet. Dozens of such
cases could be reported. Builders are ta
king contracts for whole blocks of bouses,
to be commenced at once, so as to be fin
ished by next spring. These - are to be
on the most showy scale, and will be sold
or rented, no doubt, at fabuluus rates 1
ciurot learn, however, that any arc taking
contracts for constructing comfortable,
moderate priced dwellings for tlie poor.
Wliat is to become of them it is difficult
to say, unless they take refuge in the
abominable tenement bouses which are
multiplying along the North River side
of the city.
The display of toilettes at the opera last
niglkt, in costliness ar.d glitter, beat any
thing of the kind ever witnessed here be
fore. One lady occupying a box in the
balcony, bad nearly gold and jewelry en
ough on her person to stock any of tlie win
dows in Broadway, while near by sat an
other dame clad in apparel, the value of
which could be estimated at a figure much
beyond the modest hundreds. Besides, it
was the general remark, that more fami
lies came in carriages than is usually the
case, and not only that, but almost every
body of the male gender bad white kids,
that must have cost from 82 to S 2 50 per
pair. All this goes to show that, it it be
true, as the financial writer says it is,
“money is growing tighter” down in Wall
street, they have not heard the news at
the other end of the town. ^
Questions Inj a Plain, AIan.—The fol
lowing will interest many young gentle
men with long waisted and short tailed
coats, round crowned hats and baggy
trowsers:
“I wish to know why a young man of
first rate appearance, glossy hair and neat
attire, taken from any station in life, and
put behind a counter on Broadway, or in
any office down town, should conceive the
idea tiiat his mission in life is to treat me
with scorn ? Why does he disdain my
plaintive and respectful solicitations for
gloves or cravats? or why does he look
with such a patronizing air upon me when
I step into the broker’s office in .which he
is engaged, and endeavor to impress upon"
me th.at he is of more importance than
the chief of the shop ? What have I
done that I should thus be Heated? Is
it because I have come to purchase some
thing, or to have a draft cashed, or to
buy one? It is strange that he should
*ake that ill, because his vocation would
be gone if I and my fellow "creatures, for
whom he lias such a contempt, didnot ap
pear before him, in humility, to be
| allowed to lay out a little morey. Yet 1
never offered him any other injury. Then
why does he wound my sensitive nature
by being so dreadfully -stuck up ? Why
does he doit?”
What an Impress does with her old
Clothes.
What lady when reading graphic
descriptions of the brilliant and cost
ly toilets of the French Empress, who
must needs have a new dress every
day in the year, has not. wobdered
what becomes of. those splendid fab
rics, etiquette or fashion allow her to
wear but once? Somebody tells us
how they are disposed'of: *
When Queen Elizabeth died, she
left, as she saia, a thousand and more
dresses. Modern queens are more
practical,, for^they dispose of their
dresses in their lifetime. Eugenie,
who sets the fashions for the civilized
world, has a sale of her cast off dress
es every year, and as she rarely wears
a dress twice, the number sc4d is al
ways very great. A Paris letter gives
a graphic account of a sale just ter
minated. He says that “the custom
was established by the royal ladies of
the Tuileries long before the great
revolution, acceded to by the Empress
Josephine, continued under the resto
ration, maintained by the Princess of
the house of Orleans, and kept*up
with great spirit under the present
reign.

Gen. Howard's Address in Savannah.
(Jfen. Iloward, the head of the Freed-
men’s Bureau, delivered an address in
Savannah on Thursday evening. We
find the annexed substances'of his remarks
in the Savanah Herald :
'j lie General commenced by saying
that he has been assigned to the responsi
ble position be occupied by the President,
to superintend the development and exe
cution of the policy adopted by the Fed>\
eral Government with reference to the
Freedmen, and to relieve, as far as prac
ticable, the shock that must necessarily
follow the sudden emancipation of the
slaves, which comprehend in its range the
management of the abaudoned lands, the
education, as far as possible, of the color*
ed children, and the relief of those whose
actual necessities demand it of the Gov
ernment.
With regard to tln^question of labor, he
informed them that the Government had
set them free forever, but it had not stop
ped work. Formerly they did not receive
the earnings of their labor; these were
now secured to them. Heretofore they
had families from whom they were often
separated; this would never be again. He
urged them to provide for their families,
not only to feed and clothe them, tut to
educate them.—As many of them are re
fusing to make labor contracts for the En
suing year, under the vague notion that
the Governme'r < ? s would do something for
them, lie earnestly desired them to disa
buse their minds in this particular, also;

mr In times past the Southern people were
noted for their hospitality. Their liberality, kind
ness and sociability were world-renowned. Wliat
effect will their late misfortunes have on their
character? Will they become selfish, mean and
stingy becauso they have lost their property ?
We hope not. Yet we see many indications of
such a state of society. Let us work against it.
Let us hold on to our manners and customs. If
we are compelled to change our style of living
we can still be polite and hospitable.

Jones and Brown, were talking lately of a
young clergyman whose preaching they had heard
that day. The sermon was like a certain biogra
phy, “very poor and very oious.”
“What do you think of nim ?” inquired Brown.
“I think,” said Jones, “he did much better two
years ago.”
“Why, he didn’t preach dt all then,” said Brown.
“True,” replied Jones, “that is what I mean.*’
The following is told of a villager at Harper’s
Ferry, with whom Sir Morton Peto had a brief
chat:
‘I don’t know,’ he said, ‘as the war’s done me
much harm. Five years ago. I was the poorest
man in Harper's Ferry; two years ago I was the
richest, everybody else having run away. I
wasm’t worth nothing then; I ain’t worth nothing
now; so I'm square. Judge (to Sir Morton,) have
yer any terbaeker about ye?
Experience of a Tennessee Pardon-Seeker.—Mr.
John Happy, of the Nashville Banner, gives the
following description of his journeyings after a
pardon:
Had a personal interview with the Chief Mag
istrate. and asked him for a small pardon, if he
had any more left. Chief Magistrate wanted to
know what position I held in the rebel army. The
answer was faint, somewhat hesitating, and a lit
tle shaky—I said: “Quartermaster.” .Chief Mag
istrate chuckled and turned his head to conceal a
sardonic smile. “ My ancient and venerable
friend,” he said, “if you think your department
of the rebellion endangered the Union cause,
your innocence is a pardon in itself.”
NonLE Sentiments.—Condemn no man, says
John Wesley, for not thinking as you think. Let
every man use his own judgment, since e^ery
man must give au account of himself to God.
Abhor every approach, in any kind of degree, to
the spirit of persecution. If you cannot reason
or persuade a man into the truth, never attempt
to force him into it. If love will not compel him
to come, leave him to God, the judge of all.
A Cruel 'Joke.—Some mad wag gets off the fol
lowing on Gen. N* P. Banks, better known, per
haps, as Commissary Banks:
Central Hanks can’t take the Oath.—By a law of
Congress, before any member can take his seat, lie
must swear that ho has never, “directly or iudi-
rectly, giveu aid or comfort to the enemies of the
Luiou. ’ Now how can Gen. Banks (if elected,)
get over that point? Why, the “rebs” called him
ilioir chief quartermaster—and Stonewall Jaek-
son, when short o( provisions, always started for
Banks commissary. i tI Texas, ho fid Dick Tay
lor s command, and supplied them with six months’
food and clothing, four wagon loads of paper col
lars, and other dandihed military stores * Perhaps
Banks can get over this thing hut how.'
Mitchel and Davis.
Before wholly dismissing Mitch el,
I will briefly mention bis parting in
terview yesterday with Jeff Davis,
and in 1‘aet the story is only a brief
one. I only learned of the interview
to-day from a gentleman who received
the facts from Mr. Mitchel himself.—
On the contrary, when I wrote my
letter of yesterday I was given to un
derstand most positively that he was
not allowed before leaving the fort to
see either Jeff’or Mr. Clay.
‘I have to bid you goodbye,’ said
Mr. Mitchel to Jeff’ Davis, extending
bis band to the latter, who grasped it
warmly and firmly held it in his dur
ing t|je brief interview between them.
‘The pleasing news of your restora
tion to liberty lias already been told
me,’ replied Mr. Davis, ‘and I congrat
ulate you now that you are a free cit
izen of the world again.’
'•] hope I shall soon have the pleas
ure of similarly congratulating you,’
responded Mr. Mitchel.
‘I hide my time cheerfully and hope
fully,’ spoke up Mr. Davis.
‘Hffve you any commands for me"?’
asked Mr. Mitchel; ‘any service tiiat
I can do for you V
T only ask to continue you on my
list of friends who are doing all they
can for me
‘Be assured of my unfailing co-oper-
tion in your behalf.’
‘I ask nothing more.’
‘Shall I write your wife anything?
Mr. Mitchel further asked.
‘It might be a pleasure to her, al*
though you know I am allowed pret
ty extended freedom now in writing
her. Yes, yes, write her.*
‘Goodbye.’
‘Goodbye.’
The two unclasped hands parted.
Mr. Mitchel was minute to my in
formant,' undertaking to give the ex
act conversation, which in turn I have
given-as minutely as received from the
lips of the latter
“ Truth and happiness are both within easy
reach. We miss them becauso they are so near.
We look over them, am] grasp at distant and
more imposing objects, wrapped in the false
charms which distance JenJs.”
How are you, Clerk ?—We bave’nt hoard
of a richer thing than was lately perpetrated upon
a bookstore clerk something less than a thousand
miles from Genesee street bridge. Everybody
has hc-ard jokes perpetrated upon the odd names
which it is tlie fashion to bestow upon books now-
a-days, but, we venture to say, nothing richer
than this incident. A well known wag stepped
in the bookstore above mentioned, and inquired,
“Have you ‘The Woman in White?’ ” “Yes,”
replied the clerk. * All Alone ?” asked the search
er after literafure. “Yes,” responded the clerk.
"In the Dark ?” still queried the questioner
“Yes, sir,” again promptly answered the attendant.
“Well, all I have to say is,” retorted the wag,
“you have a nice thing of it—Good bye!”
“IIow are you, cleik?”—Utica Telegraph.
The question of negro suffrage was rejected by
the people of Wisconsin, at a recent election, by
a majority of ten thousand.
the presentation of an invitation card
from her Majesty’s attendants, to
whom the privilege of granting them
belongs.
The sale is called in the present day
the “Letour de Compeigne,” but lias
been known under other names dur
ing former reigns—“Sacrifice de Fon-
taiuetyau.” “Caprices de St. Cloud,”
“Soles de la Malmasion”—according
to the place whence the court return
ed to spend the winter in Paris, and
which have varied with every sover
eign. The sale of the regal wardrobe
of the Tuileries is conducted on the
strictest principle of equity. The
shutters of the long gallery are closed,
and ijt is lighted up from one end to
other by lamps and cliandelabra, so
that the light is stronger than it would
be were daylight admitted, as the ceil
ing is low and the windows sunk deep
into the wall. Every article is tick
eted, and, of-course, no deviation from
the original decision can possibly be
allowed.
A long line of stretches are placed
fill down the middle of the gallery;
the doors of the wardrobe oireitlier
side are ftung open, and the visitor,
walking slowly down on one side and
returnining by the other, and makes
choice of what may suit her taste, and
inscribing the number it bears on a
card, hands the latter to the attend
ant in waiting at the door and de
parts.
The stretchers are occupied by the
shawls, the wardrobes by the dresses,
the shelves by the under linen, while
a sort of counter at the farther end of
the gallery is filled with the champig
nons, on which are exhibited the bon
nets, and head dresses, the white satin
dress, most splendidly embroidered in
siver, with the tunic of bouillncf
gauze, and^ the silver noachcs confined
by bands of ponceau velvet in which
her Majesty Went to the opera with
the king consort of Spain, was not
quoted higher than the nankeen-col
ored dress and jacket, braided in green,
^hich was recognized as the uniform
invented by the Empress for the dri
vers at Fontaineblau.
To be sure the * bu'ttons were of
malachite, and set in gold, but the
material of the dress could scurely be
considered as bearing any value what
ever. The shawls were principally of
French manufacture, and mostly for
summer wear; the cloaks and man
tles, deprived oftjieir lace or fur, were
unattractive. The utmost exaggera
tion seems to exist upon the price put
upbn the bonnets.
In the first place, the article itself
is out of fashion almost as soon as
seen ; in the next, it possesses no re
source whatever, and above all, it is
liable to greater deterioration than the
dress. The habit of leaning back in
the carriage, which has become so
general, destroys the bonnet immedi
ately, and renders it shabby in form,
to stay in the neighborhood where they
were, and to show by their good conduct
and haLits of industry, tiiat they were
worthy of their freedom. He advised them
strenuously not to resort to the cities, as
they could not support themselves there,
and would gutter for the necessary com
forts of life.
With regard to the abandoned lauds of
Georgia, he remarked that the Govern*
ment had determined to restore them to
their owners, as they were pardoned by
the Executive of the nation. That it
would he unjust in the Government to
confiscate these lands lying generally on
tlie codst, when the people of the interior,
who h;yl been equally rebellious, Were not
treated in like manner. That equality
in the dispensation of justice should be
observed throughout the South, without
reference to locality or color, when there
were no legal impediments in the way.
If they wanted land they must go to work
in good earnest, sa\ e money, and make
required purchases in another 1 way. He
knew of a colored man who had, by hie
own honest industry, accumulated 815,000
iu the last four years.
Alluding to the subject of education, lie
assured them that muoh had been done,
and much more would be accomplished by
both Northern and Southern Committees
for the education of colored children, and
that they must be ambitious to do all in
their power in the same direction—that in
order to enjoy the blessings of freedom
and make good citizens they must bo im
proved by education.
’Touching the matter of relief in various
ways heretofore granted by the Govern
ment, he stated emphatically that he had
been instructed by the War Department
to grant relief in future to such only as
were entirely unable to help themselves.
All otheis must provide for therr.a.dves by
adieu and thrifty labor.

The Long Branch correspondent of
the New York Times thus chronicles
the feats of a marvelous boy who sat
opposite him at the table:
I was greatly amused at dinner by
an exhibition of the peculiarities of a
shodriy family. That the hotel regis
ter showed the name of shoddy in con
nection with his group, I cannot as
sert. I scorn registers. That the head
of this family whs entitled by divine
right to the name of Cecias T. Shod
dy, I do assert. He was well enough;
shoveled his food into his mouth with
a knife, it is true; but so does many
an honest man. Mrs. Shoddy was re
splendent with diamonds, and her stub
by, red fingers glittered with many
colored jewels, and she was fat, and
not fair, and past forty. But with
neither of these was I wrapt up.’ It
was with ‘that boy.’ - Between the pa
rents, he sat directly opposite me at
the table, aud I concealed with my
napkin the visible struggle going on
within me ; I trust no one observed it
He was a feeble urchin, with watery-
white eyes and a freckled face, and ate
his food with the verocity of a starved
spaniel, and blinked continually, like
a toad in a rain storm. He gobbled,
he gnawed, and he clawed. His fing
ers were in everything alternately
within his reach, including his hair,
his coffee, and his plate.
He scorned knives and forks; or
when he did use them it was with the
cnerg\ r of despair. He would seize a
lot of fricuseed chicken in both hands,
and as he removed the edible portion
with his“ teeth, he tossed the rejected
part over liis shoulder upon the floor.
He got butter upon his coat-sleeve
and he wiped it upon his pantaloons-;
he spilled everything within bis reach;
he thrust his hand behind him to grab
