Mr. Buchauan'5 accounts So far us the
dealings of his administration is concerned,
have been posted up TO the present time, hy
the New ork-E Evening post nnI-d1aus lf,,t
make very good show, we must say. IT
the remainder of his term office does not
exhibit a better balance sheet, in proportion,
the business is likely TO be losing one, all
around, and it would be as well for him to
suspend at once. We give some of the
items. "For instance, he began his admin
istration with an effort to 'pacify Kansas, ,
and induced his particular friend, r oberl .
| Walker, to undertake the task. When the
latter thought he was succeeding, the Pres.
dent deserted him, and alien ated many Of
his best friends. Then his mt ssi &c to
Congress, aroused the opposition of the ablest
Democrat in the Senate, ana lost the conf
dence OF three quarters of the Northern De-
mocracy. Then his NJ ,rman expedition, fit
ted out at the expense of $4,000 900, an
nounccd itself unable to do anything until
next spring, and nothing IIlen. without re-
Inducements. Then, by bunglingly allow

/ quently caught by naval ,fficer under in.
struction=, he has drawn upon himself the

cordial support of any section. Then. from
/ being extremely solicitous to reduce an over
! flowing treasury, he has been obliged ia
run the face of the government for funds t.
meetits current expenses. Finally, after
going out Of his way to denounce all possi-
bic United States Banks, and all issnes oi
paper currency not based on one third spa

ty millions of treasury notes, with lut dol
lar in the treasury as a basis of vslu t-'',a-
eXtemporizing a sort OF NuinntI Bsnk

which the Post says must be f"ken iptc

that Mr. Buchanan hls shown himselfa weak

THE VALUE OF TIME.

When the Roman Emperor said, 81 have
lost day. he uttered sadder truth than
if he had exclaimed, 81 have lost a kingdom. -
Napoleon said that the reason why he beat
the Ausirians was, that they did not know
the value OF five minutes. At the celebra-
ted battle of RivoH, the conflict seemed on the
point of being decided against him. He saw
the critical state of affairs, and instantly
took his resolution. He dispatched a flag
to the Austrian headquarters, with propo-
sails for an armistice. The unwary Austrians
fel. into the snare--for few minutes the
thunders Of battle were huahed. Napoleon
seized the precious minutes, and while anu
sing the enemy with mock negotiation, rear
ranged his line of battle, changed his front,
and in few minutes was ready to renounce
the farce of discussion FOR the stern arbitra-
mem OF arms. The splendid victories aud
defeats of The world often turn on FIVE min
utes. Crisis come, the not seizing OF which
is ruin. Men may loiter, but time flies On
the wings of the wind and all the great in
terests Of lie are speeding on, with the sure
and silent tread Of destiny.

The History OF a Philadelphia liI:lbu.ter.

ne HISTORY o. Eniladefpnla fiisiDuSteF
The telegraph last night made the follow
ing announcement:
"Adiutant Bfes has been arrested here,
(ut Norfoik) on charge of grand larceny,
comlMitted at Philadelphia
The history of this arrest anI of the cir
cu,nstances which led to il, is at follows:
Mr.. Edwin R. B;les is Il member of q very
respectable family in Philadelphia. Sever
al years since Mr.. B. became connected
with the extensive dry goods house of Hos
kins, Hieskill & Co., Market st. above Fifth
and he won upon the confidence Of his
employers that he became principal book
keeper and confidential clerk in the estab-
lishment Things prospered with Mr.. Biles;
he became gay man about town, an active
mem Der of a popular order, a prominent III;
itary man, and amateur aaronaut, an last
| liver generally.
Mr.. Bes devoted very considerable atten-
ton to military matters. He first ioned
cracked volunteer corps; in course of time,
| he was elected an officer OF the company,
and at a military election, last spring, he was
made Lieutenant Colonel of regiment CON :
posed of the flower OF the volunteer military.
The first parade after the election took place
in June last, ana aith 1ugh Lieutenant Col
| onel Biles was known 10 have procured for
! himself handsome uniform and other mill
| tary tcappings, the regiment was compelled
! to parade without its Lieutenant Colonel. =
( Mr. Biles suddenly DISAPPEARED from the city,
and the firm by which he was employed be-
came greatly interested in his whereabouts
from the fact that critical examination OF
! his ol, oJ t1,a fopt fhaf 81
of false entries had been pursued by the ab-
sent military man, and it was made mani
fest that the firm had suffered to the tune of
$50, 900, and it is even thought the amount
may reach $4,000.
Dilligent inquiry was set a foot with a
| view to ascertain what had become Of Col.
BiEeS; but all without avail, until the news
of the capture of Gen. Walkers force at
Punta Arenas reached the city, when the
name Of Adjutant Biles appeared ia the pub
lished reports of the prisoners captured by
Commodore Paudng. 1t seems that when
Mr.. Biles left the city he ioined the Ncar-
aguan army of the "grey-eycd man of desti-
n.y." and was made Lieutenant in Compa-
ny, and subsequently became Adjuant of the
Regiment through his knowledge of militia
ry matters.
Adjuant Bies' active military career was
suddenly cut short by the appearance off the
coast of Commodore Pauldng, and, after
Walkers capture, he was transferred, with
other prisoners of war. to the Saratoga, and
in that government vessel reached Norfolk
on Saturday. The tilibuster officers were
suffered to go ashore tn parole; but the CIV
il authority would allow no rest for the quon-
dam book keeper and discomhtted dllibuster,
for Adjutant Biles was immedatly captured
by High Constable. Russell, of this city, who
from authority of requisition from Gov.
Pollock, arrested him. We presume that
ere this he is speeding towards Philadelphia

THE WIND A MUSICIAN.

The wind is a musician at birth. We ex-
tend silken thread in the creyice of win
dow, and the wind finds it and sings over it,
and gees up and down the scale upon it, and
poor Paganini mustgo somewhere else for
his honor, for 10. the wind is performing with
single string!
II tries almost everything upon earth TO
see if there is music in it; it persuades a
tone out of the great bell IN the tower.
when the sexton is at home and asleep; it
makes a mournful harp Of the giant pines,
and it does not disda;n to try what sori of a
whistle can be made of the humblest chin
ney in the world. How il will play upon
great tree till every leaf thrills with the note
in ii, and wind up the river that runs at it's
base, for q sort of murmuring accompani-
ment.
And what melody it sings when it gives
concert with the full choir of the waves of
the sea, and performs an anthem between the
two worlds, that goes up, perhaps, TO the
stars that love music most and sang it the
first.
Then how fondy it haunts old houses;
moaning under The caves, signing in the halls,
opening old doors without fingers, and sing
ing measure of some old soBg, around the
freless and deserted hearth.

THE DEAD CHILD.

Few things appear so beautiful as young
child in lis shroud. The little innocent face
looks 50 subIimely simple ana confiding
among the cold terrors Of death. Cfimeless
and fearless, that little mortal has passed
alone under the shadow. There is death in
its sublimest and purest image; no hatred,
no hypocricy, no suspicion, no care for the
morrow ever darkened that little face;
death has come lovingly upon it; there is
nothing cruel or harsh in its victory. The
yearnings of love, indeed, cannot be stif1ed'
for the prattle and smile-an the little
world of thoughts that were so delightful
are gone forever. Awe, too, will overcast
us in its presence; for the lonely voyager
the child has gone, simple and trusting
into the presence of an allwise Father; and
of such, we know, is the kingdom oi
Heaven.
