was valued at 100000 and is a total
loss to the owner, as they had no war
insurance upon her. The New York
Express, referring to her destruction.
says:
1t caused the most intense excite
ment among the shipping merchants
in New York on Saturday, and form
ed the chief topic of conversation in
business circles.
It's effects on change We're quite
apparent, there was general dis
position among shippers to operate
very cautiously in breadstuffs, until
further advices wers obtained from
the other side. The effect upon
freights was depressing, so far as
American bottoms are concerned, al
though there has scarcely been
enough done to tell what the effect
really would be. There was in fact
a very unsettled and rather gloomy
feeling among business men generally.
The Board of Underwriters held
long session on Saturday morning
upon this matter; and finally conclu-
ded to advance war risk to five per
cent. They will issue to a moderate
extenta this rate, although many yes
sells now in the British channel will
be unable to get insured, unless at a
still higher rate. There is consid-
erable anxiety felt here in regard to
the steamer Arago, which was due
at Southampton two days after the
Nashville arrived there.

No Pay .t0r the Eight-Aouv Pyim-
tcrs.-When the bills for labor by the
journeyman printers in the public
printing Office at Washington were
sent in for payment recently, the
controller, Mr.. Whittlesey, returned
them unpaid,with letter containing
his reasons. These were that while
the men in the army and in the navy
were worked night and day, and the
clerks in the departments many nights
until 10 o'clock, and while printers
throughout the United States work
at least ten hours, he did not see
why those printers in the government
employ could ask full pay for day
of less than ten hours.
From the above, knowing the
character Of the disciples of Faust,
we should not be at all surprised if
the printers quit work, if the comp
troller persists in not allowing the
face Of their bills. Look out for
big "strike" soon. 1t will not be
long before we may hear Of a general
embroglio all through the North.

BY ID. II. RICHARDSON.


When wandering forth alone at night,
While stars hedeck the evening sky:
Deep thoughts return ON pinions bright,
To those we loved in days gone by.
At midnight's hour when thoughts arc
dreams
When sleep has closed each restless eve
We wander near our native streams,
With those we loved in days gone by
When musing meath our garden bowers,
While snow-whitc clouds are seen on high;
Our thoughts face back-we deck with
flowers,
The brows we loved in days gone by
When first we rise at mor1's still hour,
While loudly screams the lark on high;
Our minds return with magic power.
To dwell with those of days gone by.
When DER the Western plains we roam,
While tropic brcezcs sweetly sigh;
Our minds return to seek the home,
Ofthose we loved in days gone by.
When all alone mid Western Wilds,
Where savage foes like demons cry;
Our thoughts glide back to seek the smiles,
OF those we loved in days gone by.
When on Old Oceans storm-tossed breast,
Where foam-capped waves are rolling
high;
Sweet Thoughts return and gladly rest,
With forms we loved in times gone by.
