90 THE Old. OLD Story

Summer moonbeanis softly playing, .'.- q &
Light the woods Of Castle Keep.
And there i see o maiden straylng, -.
Where the darkest shadows creep.
Che il listening-meeky, purely,
To the wooer at her side; ~.
IT'S the ~old, old story" surely,
Running on like time and tide. ..
Maiden fair, oh have q care;
Vows are many-truth Is rare.
He IL courtly, she ~ simple;
Lordly doubtlet speaks his lot;
She Is wearing hood and wImple- ..
. his the castle, hers the cot.
Syeeter Tar she deems his whisper
Than the night birds dulcst thrill:
She Is smlllng-he beguillng-
It's the "old, old story" still.
Maiden fair, oh, have csre;
vows are many-truth is rare.
The autumn sun is quickly going
Behind the woods of Castle Keep;
The AR Is chill, the night wind blowing,
And there | see q maiden weep.
Her cheeks are white-her brow is aching
The old, old story sad and brief;
vi heart betray ed, and left. nj gh breaking,
In mute despair and lonely grief.
MaIden's fair, oh have a care;
VOWS are many-truth Is rare

Muddy Walking.

Ih,rain has come, and so has the mud,
and the mud has made muddy cross-walks,
md tho rain and mud together have made it
very inconvenient for out door work, so like
the Arkansaser. we can't think of having
cross walks constructed until the weather
clears up.and after the weather clears up we
won't need cross walks at all If n majority
of our "Trustys" had thin boots, and cold
in their heads, and long walk to and from
their meals, and proper regard for blaoked
boots, and their official concences tinged
with some little patriotic ardor pro bono
pubiico. to say nothing Of the looks Of
the thing, why, it wouldn't be more
than a reasonable period Of time before the
most frequented crossing places would be
supplied with plank pavements or flagstones
We don't wish or worthy town dad dies any
very bad luck, but we do hope they may
have to black a leaky air of boots every day
until they cause some of the worst crossings
to be fixed.

Additional Atlantic Items.

Three more of those wrecked in the Gen.

picked up by the Scottish brig Mary after
being nine days without food or water
Their names are Alexander Grant, fireman,
John Tice, First Assistant Engineer, and
Geo. W. Dawson, colored man, who will be
remembered as o Porter at the st. Nicholas

ferngs and experience is full of the most
appalling horrors,
The panic among bankers, stockholders
and depositors all over the United States is
of more general and distressing nature
than anything Of the kind which has occur
red in twenty years. The frmest banks
have had to yield, and desperation seems to
have seized the business men of all quarters.
The New York City Banks are represented
as still firm and likely to withstand the
shock.
A great prize fight was fought near Prov
idence, Rhode Island, between New Yorker
named Barney Baron, and Londoner nam
ed Johnny Monnegan. Eighty rounds were
fought, at the end Of which Aaron was de-
clared the victor. The fight was very ex-
citing one among "the fancy" and great
sums of money were lost and won ON the re-
suit
A terrible explosion took place at steam
plaster mill in West street, New York, by
which one person was killed outright, about
thirty buried in the ruins, and four houses
destroyed
Dispatches have been received from the
Navy Department from Capt. Hudson. of the

The New York Yacht Club regatta came

test. The race was won by the Una.
The great race over the Fashion course,
between Nicholas, the northern horse; and
Charleston and Engineer, the southern
horses, was not run as originally designed,
in consequence Of n severe accident which
happened to Charleston, The latter was
Withdrawn, and the two other horses ran.
Nicholas was the victor. Time, 7;45--1:E.
The news from Burope is generally unin-

A good deal Of interest was felt with res

The Car and the Emperor Napoleon. The
Car had arrived in Berlin.
We have no further news of Importance

THE SACRAMENTO CHAIN GANG.-This
institution seems to be in flourishing con-
dition, judging from q statement published
in the State Journal of Tuesday. From that
paper we learn that it has cleared the city
during the month of October, $3.50 so. That
is a very considerable saving for the city ,and
shows that the rascals of Sacramento are
made to pay their way. The Orovlle Jail
occupants ought to be compelled to earn
their living.

A CLrNcHER.-We publish to day q COM
munication from one of the Kirk wagon road
party, which as proof of tho assertions we

concerning Kirk's movements, is the most
conclusive of anything we have yet been pro-
vided with. We have long been Intimately
acquainted with the author of the communi-
cation, and can vouch for his good judgment,
fairness and veracity. We commend it to
the attention Of tho Sacramento Union
Oroville daily Butte record., 1857-11-05
The OroytlIe Banks.

While all other cities of the Union are in
intense tribulation and excitement, and rich
men of one day are the veriest bankrupts the
next, and poor depositors are being made
poorer in the general crash and confusion
following the failures that one after another
have occurred to many institutions Of all
grade and character, it seems worthy OF re-
mark that 0rovile with three banking
houses, mas felt so little of the general
alarm, and moved along so quietly in the
even tenor of her way. Curious to learn
how our banking institutions "stood the
racket" we went to each of them yesterday,
and'on pretence Of casual visit, glanced at
the bankers faces and peeped slyly at their
"piles,' but we saw no unusual marks Of
care depicted in the former, but did see II
very generous allowance Of the latter,
enough indeel indeed to keep care and
anxiety from anybody's face We heard
vague rumors of n run on McWillams &
Tymeson's house during the former part of
the day, but in the evening their counter
looked as if depostors had been bringing
cash there instead of taking it away Hedges
& IIannon looked impregnahly fortified,
with big pans Of glittering dust and stacks
Of tens and twenties, and Emery & Co
looked as bland and smiling as a May morn
ing as they stood counting ont the mint
drops to Celestial who had just been selling
his gold.
In the general prosperity, the rondo
banks held their own, notwithstanding an
immense run of depositors, many a one Of
whom went away growing because forsooth
" check" as he would, the deposits wouidnt
come; but still t. institutions thriyed The
mud banks are holding out too, and the run
upon them which this last rain is making
has proved godsend to them, and they are
paying out more literally than ever. These
last will keep all the others alive when every
savings bank in creation is in trouble.
