POETRY.
MY HOME Is THE WORLD.
By T. III. BAILEY.

Speed, speed, my feetvessel, the shore is in sight
The breezes are fair, We shall anchor tonight;
Tomorrow at sunrise, once more shall stand
On the sea beaten shore of my own native land
But why doesdespondency weigh down my hearth
Such thoughts are for friends who reluctantly part
come from an exile of twenty long years,
Yeti gaze on my country through fast falling tears.
see the hills purple with bells the heath,
And my own happy valley that nestles beneath.
And the fragrant white blossoms spread over the
thorn,
That grows near the cottage in which was born
1t cannot be changed-nu the clemats climbs
Der the gay little porch as it did in old times.
And the seat where my father reclined is still there
But where is my father? Oh answer me where
My mothers own easement, the chamber sheloved,
Is still there oerlooking the lawn where roved,
How thoughtful she sat with her hand ON her brow.
As she watched her young darling--ah! where is
she now?
And there is my poor sisters garden; how mild
Were the innocent sports of that beautiful child
Her voice had spell in its musical tone,
And her checks were like rose leaves-ahl where
is she gone
No father reclines on the clemats seat
No mother looks down from her shaded retreat!
No sister is there stealing silly away,
Till the half suppressed laughter betrayed where
she lay
How Of in my exile when kind friends were near
I've sighted their kindness and sighed to be here
How of have said" could once again see
That sweet little valley, how blest should | be !"
How blest oh it is not a valley like this
Ihat unamed can realize visions ofbiss;
For voices lisien-and then look round
For light steps that used 10 trip aGcr the sound
But see thisgrecn PATH remember il we'll
TiS the way to The echurch-hark! the toll OF the bell
oh Oft in my boyhood a ruant I've strayed
To yondcr dark ycw tree and slept in It's shade.
But surely the pathway is narrower now!
No smooth place is leil meath the dark yew tree
bough,
Der tablets inscribed with sad feelings | tread
And the home had sought is the home Of the dead
And was il to this loold forward so long,
And shrunk from the sweetness of Italy's song?
And turn d from the dance of the dark girl of Spain7
And wep for my country again and again
And was it for this 10 my easement crcpt
To gaze on the deep where dreamed that slept
To think offond meeiings-the welcome--the kiss
The friendly hands pressure--ah was it for this 7
When those who so long have been absent, return
To the scenes ofthcr childhood il is but TO mourn
Wounds open afresh that time nearly had healed
And the ills Of a life al one glance are revealed.
Speed, speed, my fleet vessel thetempest may rave
There's calm for my heart in the dash ofthe wave,
Speed, speed, my fleet vessel the sails are unfurld;
Oh ask me not whi,her--my home is the world

New YORK. December %, 1887
DEAR SIR: The special deposs scheme, as far as its
features could be scanned through the language Of the
President, will, think, find little favor in the eyes OF
the intelligent merchants and fnanciers Of the Union,
while the voluntary connection which contemplaes no
check on the Judgment caprice errors Of the head Of
the Treasury Department, will be as unlikely to pass
current with old fashioned Democratic Republicans If
the special deposte system intends have the funds de-
posted returned, just they deposited the
barrassnents growing out Of daily and hourly calls for
the money-bor the money-bag, viii be constan. and
vexatious Only think of the collector Of the port Of
New York deposting half million Of dollars to-day in
Of banks, which is to be paid out tomorrow in
five hundred items, varying from one hundred to one
thousand dollars each. The first that calls has to
wait until the money-bag, box, is opened, and the
sum counted out. Some officer Of the bank must, Of
course watch the precious treasure, les. the Govern
ment official, who abstracts the specified sum, should
enormously exceed the amount Of the draft
How many such operations could be made in a'day
cannot determine precisely but it appears to that
it would take all the banks in the city to perform this
duty of safe keeping the public revenue, and perhaps
more hlile monsters would be required.
Then again. the receiver ofpubc moneys in the west
would be compelled in self defence to collect all his de-
mands in specie the disbursements at those points
are made, and the funds might he kept on hand for
long time, and he would not, Of course the risk Of
taking bank notes to keep for so long period
Well perhaps some Of the official authorities at Wash
ngton may say, ave don't mean such special depo-
site scheme" In the Of common sense, then tell
,chat you do mean IT you mean the State Bank de-
poste system when the banks resume specie payments
declare it honestly and frankly, that is all that we
contendng for this subject When this is done
and the Globe and its aduncts learn wisdom in the
school Of adversely and become civil, why then there
will be some hope for the Republic.
