A LITTLE INclpENr.--A bachelor friend of ours
was riding day or two ago through Athol, in this
State when he overlook little girl and boy APP
parentIy on their way to school. The little girl
appeared to be five or six years old, and was as
beautiful as fairy. Her eyes were lit up with
CLEAN of intense happiness, and her cheeks glow,
ed with the hues Of health Our bachelor friend
looked at her for moment admiringly. She met
his glance with a smile, and with an eager voice
salited him with, Shave you got a baby" He
was struck aback by the question, and something
like regret stole over his mind as he looked upon
the animated and beautiful little face before him.
"No, ;" he answered. swell, she replied, draw
ing her tiny form proudly up, '',cc hare and pass
ed on, still smiling, to tell the joyous news to the
next one she might meet. What world of hap
piness to her was concentrated in that one idea
the baby. And in her Joy she felt as if all must
have the same delight as herself; and IT was a
matter of aectionate pride to her that lifted her
little heart above the reach of ordinary envy, for
in the baby was her world, and what else had she
to crave. Such was the reflection of our friend,
and he remembered it long enough to tell it to us

MONEY AND BUSINESS IN BosroN.-Money rates
have continued to advance during the week, slowly
but surely; although no pressure has been expert
enced in our market in consequence. From seventh
eight per cent may be quoted as the ruling rate.
Contrary to the expectations of many, the foreign
news by the late steamers Franklin and Europa has
had as vet no unfavorable inf uence upon the fnan-
cial operations ON this side of the Atlantic. The
supply of capital is at present abundant with us,
and some time must elapsc before panic or
crisis can occur to seriously impair credit, or
render exorbitant terms necessary. Moneyed men,
however, are paying considerable attention to for
een intelligence, and we doubtvery much whether
loans on time are being made to any considerable
extent. It seems to be the prevailing impression
that even should the next European news be unfa-
vorable to peaceful relations between Turkey and
Russia, or should hostilities have actually COM
menced our condition has been strongly fort-
fed by the influx of large amounts of capital,
that the worst that can happen Immediately will
be merely slight increase in rates over those at
present ruling. AS our readers are well aware,
there have been no important money transactions
entered into on this side of the water for several
months; most of the great enterprises of the day
have received foreign aid. Our markets too
have been almost entirely devoid of speculative in
huenccs, and the general tendency of things has
been towards an accumulation of capital, rather
than to outlay, as in times OF general ease An
inference may be readily drawn from these facts
favorable to the future monetary condition of the
country. Notwithstanding all this, the aspect of
affairs is liable to change in the twinkling OF an
eye ere the borrower has time to look about him,
and it behooves the mercantile community to be
prepared for the results of unfavorable foreign
policy must be felt here, in one shape or another,
although not so suddenly, perhaps, as many i'm
agine. Boston Atlas, 3d.

THE Coach RATTLE AvoDEp.--An intelligent
contributor furnishes the Boston Transcript with
the following account of an Improvement which
is soon to be introduced for public faver. He
says:
ssTo prevent the noise and din Of omnbuses and
other carriages on their way through the streets
has long been great desideratum; and the public
will be reioiced to be informed that mode to
accomplish SO important an object has at length
been obtained. The improvement is said to have
emanated from practical engineer, and to be
applicable to all sorts of vehicles for the common
roads. BY proper arrangement and connexlon
of the doors and windows, on the part Of the
manufacturer, the shaking and rattle generally
80 peculiar to them may readily be avoided But
to get rid of the sound of the wheels, as they
strike against the pavements, has hitherto been
considered almost an impossiblity. This, we
learn, may now be accomplished in the most SIM
pie and effective manner. All that is necessary
is merely to cover the rims with dia-,uJber tires,
of from an inch to an inch and half in thickness,
according to circumstances. AT first, 1t was
thought that the India-rubber would lack strength
and durability. But being expressly prepared tor
the purpose it is asserted that it will not only re-
tain it's place and elasticity, but endure for an al
most incredible time. In a coach, with such
wheels, the sensation is described to be like that
which one might expect to experience in riding
over road composed of layers of velvet; and we
may add that the first person who will introduce
such a model of coach or omnibus into this city
may be sure to reap rich reward for his enter
prise. - N
