BREAKING A BANK.

CAPTAIN Summons is very clever TEL
low-and the " DR.. franklin sras a very
superb boat, albeit inclined to rock abou. a
good deal, and nearly turn over on her
side when visited by breath Of air in the
least resembling gale. Capt. Summons
is a clever fellow. All steamboat captains
are clever fellows--or nearly all; but what
mean to say is, Capt. Summons is a par
ticularly clever fellow!--a clever fellow
in the widest sense Of the term-a fellow
thai is clever in every way-anxious that
his passengers shall be comfortably be-
slowed, and well fed and well attended to
and determined that they shall amuse
themselves "just as they id please" as
the saying is. If he happens TO have
preachers on board, he puts on serious
countenance Of Sunday morning con
sents that there shall be preaching orders
the chairs to be set out, and provides bibles
and hymn. books for tho occasion himself
and officers, whose watch is below, TAX
ing front seats and listening atten,ively to
the discourse. Likely as not, at the close
Of the service, be will ask the reverend
gentleman who has been officiating, with
his back in close proximity to hot fire in
q Franklin furnace, to accompany him to
the bar and join him in some refreshments
If there are passengers on board who pre-
fer to pass the time away in playing po-
ker. ucre, Drag, backgammon, or whist,
tables and chairs are ready for them, too
poker, brag, ucre and whist be il! All
sorts Of passengers are accommodated on
the DR.. Franklin -ille rights Of none are
suffered to be infringed all are free TO
follow such employmenis as shall please
themselves. A dance in the evening is a
very common occurrence on this boat, and
when cotilIons are on the carpet, the cap
tain is sure to be thar.
It's sometimes the cuse that at the COM
mencement Of voyage, II is found some
what difficult to reconcile all the passen-
gers to the system Of Captain Summons,
which is founded on the broad principle
of equal rights to all. On the occasion of
my voyage in the Doctor" in December,
1874, found myself surrounded by a
crowd Of passengers who were entire
strangers 10 me--a very rare occurrence
to one who travels so often on the West
ern rivers as do. wished my absence
from New Orleans to be as brief as posi-
Bile, and the doctor" was the fastest boat
in port at the time Of my leaving the cres-
cent city; SO | resolved to secure berth
in her, and trust in luck to find ST. Louis

Oh, wear for me no Sable Hue.
ny ANNA CORA mowArr.

Oh wear FOR me no sable hue,
No garb of blazoned grief, whenl
Shall bid this gladstone earth adleu,
And fling my spirits garmentby.
Nor mark the spot with urn or stone,
Where worthless dust, unconscious, lies
Within Your loving hearts alone
The monument ask should rise.
And shed for me no bitter tear,
Nor breathe my name in mournful tone
Your smiles twas mine to waken here,
And would think them still my own.
Nor link my image with regret
a pleasant memory | would be,
To consecrate and brighten yet
The scenes that once wear dear to me.
All why should tears bcdew the sod
Where some beloved ones ashes rest9
The soul rejoceth near its Cod

Then weep not for the loved one fed
To realms more pure-a home more fair
And call not the departed dead!
She lives-she loves she waits you there.

SIR RoBERT PEEL.--A writer in the I'm
ion furnishes sketch of the English Pre-
mier, Sir Robert Peel His personal APP
pearance is thus described -
In person he is about FIVE feet eight inches
high, rather full aud round in flesh, arising
from light tendency 90 corpulency. The
manners Of the premier are Of The most bland
and conciliatory character. He is exceed
ingly guarded against the display Of hasty
feeling or temper; and under the seyeresi
contest in the Ho'dse Of Commons, exhibits
no undue exciten tent, appearing at all times,
even IN defeat, cool, collected, bland and
amiabie. Thls power over his passions
gives him gre at advantage, of which his tall
enis enable i'm TO obtain the full benefit
In dress lie is always genteel, a little nice,
tasty and trim, without foppishacss. lie is
deeply att lched TO the fame, glory, antiqui-
ties, &c, of old England-guing strongly
for the ancient institutions, with disposition
TO yield TO modern exigencies what is Just
and reasonable. His eloquence is not that
stirring, genius-Inspired oratory Of Sheridan
of Burke, or of Chatham but what he
says is always well said, clear, perspicuous,
and generally to the point, occasionally run
ming slightly into redundancy. Such are
my recolleciions of Sir Robert from having
been his auditor on several occasions in the
House Of Commons.

A Lone StOry.-In the North Adams
Transcript story is related of fair dam
sci in that town, who found it somewhat diff
ficult TO decide between rival suiiors for her
hand, and made them both agree to accom-
pany her to the Office Of the SQUIRE where
she promised to make her selection, on con-
dition that the rejected sutton should pay the
marriage fee, present her with five dollars,
and then depart the town for the space of
one year The Transcript says that this
bit of drama was actually performed, and
the desolate one left town per agreement.

A DEscRIPTIoN OF GuIzoT, the French
Prime MiniSter.-Form an idea of this man
of little stature, with his head bent forward
and his body leaning to the right from weak
ness, with his gray hair, pale complexion
hollow cheeks, as he steps up TO the chair
Imagine that this man, weighed down by
the cares Of his office, by his feeble health,
and the troubles caused to him by two sick
children, also labors under an unpopularity
unparalleled since the days of Richeleu and
MaZarin. Arrived on the chair, he crosses
his arma throws back his head-his fore
head is clearing up and extending, his eyes
are enlivened, and from his lips, with mo-
ton of contempt that plays round the cor
ners of his mouth, the most admirable lam
guage flows. You find the saloon crowded
with the elected ola whole nation, the most
distinguished peers of France, strangers Of
all nations, but in vain you look for a single
counienance that gives signs of inatiention,
ennui, or indifference. On the contrary.
you find antagonists and adherents chained,
enchanted, puzzled, or enthusiastic IN their
expressions, according TO their political po-
s'tlon. That is an astonishing spectacle,
and is to this great statesman an atonemeni
for the injustice he is suffering, aud which
viii soon terminate his life. Afer he has
descended from the chair, his vital spirits,
feverishly excited. still sustain bin, but he
hasiens home and his body yields TO exhaus-
ton he lays himself down and seeks rest,
either in conversation with his two children
or in sleep, if it does not refuse him its re-
lief
