Of the banks there were no discounts The inquiry
is made, why is money so scarce or why are the

readily answered. As regards the scarcity people
have, under an easy position Of finances since the
spring Of 1858, induiged in too large expenditures;
others have borrowed to invest in lands and ne
groes az the very highest prices, just the same as
some parties are now investing in swamp lots and

PARTICULARS OF THE DEATH OF
THEODORE PARKER.
From the London News, Nay 1asa

The following is an extract from a
private letter to Professor Newman, dated
Florence, May 10th, 1850:
81 have sad news to communicate. Our
dear suffering friend, Theodore Parker,
died yesterday evening Yet, there never
was an easier end to life but lately full Of
vigor. l saw him about three hours be-
fore he died, lying calmly, while life was
ebbing away unconsciously TO himself. He
left written directions for his funeral, lin
iting to FIVE persons the attending him to
the grave, of whom I was one Many Amer
leans here are expressing their wish to ap-
pear as mourners, but it is thought best to
abide by his instructions. He desired the
eleven first verses of the Sermon on the
Mount (the blessing of Jesus, to be read
over lis grave, and then plain gray stone,
with his name and age, and nothing further
of inscription. Mr.. Cunningham, the Bos-
ton Unitarian Minister, will read the pas
sage. He is sincere friend and admirer
of Parker We hope to get a east taken
of Mr.. Parker to-day. Mrs. Parker his
poor dear wife, has hitherto borne up well.
Miss Stevenson, who has so long resided
with them, was also with him to the last.
She thinks from the peculiar tenderness of
his manner yesterday, that he knew he was
dying. He had been dreamy for some
days, and talked ramblngly of two Theo-
dore Parkers, one here and one planted in
Boston, who would finish his work; per-
haps true thought, only mystically ex-
pressed Among his last we'll connected
words were these:
"'Of course you know I am not afraid to die,
though l wished to live and finish much work
which longed to do. l had great powers CON-
miDted to me, and I have but half used them
"Since writing this I have seen him ly-
ing, o, so peacefully! I have never seen
death under form so devoid of terror
The hectic color remains on his check, and
it is hard to persuade ourself that he has
passed away. He ceased to breathe with
out the least struggle .. .....

SEEING THE ELEPHANT.

When the first elephant came out to
this country and went the rounds down
East, he was q wonder indeed. The keep
used to take him from town to town in
the night, and put him in farmers barns,
an agent riding on ahead to secure GUAR
ters. One night the agent engaged a
barn yard for the accommodation of the
enormous brute, and having done so, re-
quested the worthy agriculturist to secure
bull of his, until then master of the yard.
''Look out for your bull, squire %
"Looh out for yoau ELEPHANT" retorted
the squire. in huge disdain. "My bull is
mighty peart, tell you, and I wouldn' t
advise no elephant to come too nigh to him. -
In due time the elephant appeared
The bull was wide awake: he showed a
firm front to the intruder, and stood, with
glaring eye and lowering front, believing
defiance. But not liking to charge in front,
he made an echelon movement, and screw
ing up his tail and bis courage made a
headlong charge in flank. But the big
brute of India had kept his little twinkling
eye on him, and just in time to save him
self, with one wallop of his vigorous trunk
he laid the 'lord of lowing herds pros
trate on dung hill.
The next day thousand pounds of
tough bull beef werc offered in the mar
kets, and the squire was satisfied with see
ing the elephant.

A TOILET IN A GILLIAN VALLEY
While I was sitting on a skeleton of a
horses head writing by the blaze of the
fire, I saw two girls dressing for ball
They were standing near stream of wa
ter which was stunning at the back of the
hut. After washing their faces with their
hands and drying them with the lower hem
Of their garment, they put on their gowns
and then, twisting up their hair in a simple,
pretty way, they picked, by the light of the
moon, some yellow flowers which were
growing near them. These they put fresh
into their hair, and when this simple toi-
let was completed, they looked as interest
ing as if ''the carriage was to have called
for them at eleven o'clock.-1roueZs IN

The EEGL1sa RIFLE MoYEMEyT.--The vol
unteer or rife corps movement has spread its
ramifcations into every little town and vii.
lage of England. There are now enrolled
nearly two hundred thousand, and before two
years they expect to number half q million.
Every one seems imbued with the importance
of this movement against invasion, from the
Queen to the humble subject in the realm.
The volunteers comprise in their ranks the
best of the young men that can be found. Ii
is talked of in English circles to invite the
New York Seventh Regiment of volunteers
to visit England next spring, and go into
camp with a dozen regiments of British rife
men, and compete with them in proficiency
of drill. There is little doubt that the gal.
liant Seventh would accept the invitation
They could make arrangements with some oi
the steamships for a trip out and back at q
reduced price. Such visit would benefit the
volunteer systems OF both nations.
