,MERIoAN woMEN IN THE CARS.

The woman. rs she enters, drags after her q
misshappen, dirty mass of battered wireworks,
which She calls her crinoline, aud which adds US
much to her grace and comfort as o log Of wood
does 10 a monkey when tied to the animaPs leg
in a paddock. OF this she takes much heed, mol
managing it so that it may be conveyed up the
carriage with some decency, but striking It about
against mems legs, and heaVing ii with violence
over peoples knees. The touch Of real WOman's
dress is, in iteelf, delicate but these blows from
harpy's fins are loathsome. If there be two OF
them they talk loudly together, having theory
that modesty has been put out OF court by
women's rights.
But though not modest, the woman descrine
is ferociOus in her propriely. She ignores the
whole world around her, US she SITS WIN ralseu
chin and face aattened by stectaton she pre-
tends to declare aloud that she is positively not
aware that o man is even near
But every twist Of her body and every tone ol
her voice is an unsuccessful falsehood. She
looks square at you in the face, and you rise tC
give her your seat. You rise from deterenc'
10 your own old conviction, and from that cour
tesy which you have ever paid to woman
dress, let it be worn with ever such hideous de
formities. She takes the place from which So'
have moved without word or bow sh
twists herself rouud banging your shins VIII
her wires, while her chm is still raised, aud ne S
face is still fattened, and she directs her lfioIu
attention to another seated man, as though u'a
place were also vacant, and necessary Ut nv,

abuse The stamps can be stuck singly npon ~
thin piece of paper, large enough to fold over US
face and keep it from being soiled. This course
will also assist the Government with the tempo
rary use of money. as, in fact, it will be an ek-
tension of the paper.money system. Though u
is not ou this account alone to be recommended,
yet having come to point where some one will
have to issue shinplasters for small change, II
will be better that it shall be done by the Gov
ernment rather than by individuals. We have
exported this year but a small part of the gold
imported last year, and the present premium
cannot be accounted for on the ground OF the
present or anticipated export demand. If the
export was prohibited or not called for BY COM
merce, the premium would be very nearly what
it is now 1t is simply the natural law Of the
decline of au article in price from its abundant
supply, for it is hardly necessary to say that
gold has not changed, but that paper mas le-
clned The ealue of the metal is the same, but
the price has changed We measure it now by I"
different standard.

Small Change.

The New York Tribune makes the novel; but
practcable, suggestion of using postage stamps
The Iremlum of 10 to II per cent. on gold aud
of & to 6 per cent on silver, naturally takes from
circulation all our small change. On several OF
the ferries and in some shops tho premium Is
charged 10 any one who offers bill IN paymseo'i
answer. But in little while the gradual disap-
pearance Of silver will make some substitute
necessity. For this purpose we have at hand
postage stamps. which are of all the denomina
lions needed for change, have the great advan-
tare of being Of intrinsic value, as Government
promise, and would become current anywhere
while the tickets Of restaurants or terry-poe'

TIE RARITY MARKET.

The London Atheneum says:
.tIts a question of some curiosity to settle
whether any book which has been printed is now
totally lost, 80 that not n copy remains. On the
one hand, ii is certain that there are recorded
volumes Of which no one copy is known; on the
other it is certain that some Of these extinct
productions are revived from time TO time by
copes actually turning up. Now and then ap-
pears a work in q sale which is pronounced uni
que it has never been mentioned for centuries,
aud the possessor never saw or heard cf another
copy. But no sooner has the sale information
had time to get about than or more persons hnd
comics of the rarity among their rubbish, bought
perhaps at vile prices from low stalls. The
BUYER of the unique books at unique price Is
himself sold; but when the second and third
comics come to the hammer the lot bears the
note. Sold at IS sale for --- T. And
this will be repeated when the fourth copy IS
sold; though perhaps it will not be thought ad-
yisable to state what the second and third copies
sold for. There is all the interest Of gambling
about the rarity market.
ga celebrated dealer in old goods was passing
a cbandler's shop, where he was stopped by Il
few filthy old volumes in the window. One OF
them he found to be volume OF old Englsh
puetry, which he--a practiced haRd in that line
saw was utterly unknown as existing, though
not unrecorded. Three and sixpence was asked

the first person he saw was Heber OF that ilk-

Not penny under thirty guinees!' A cheei

The Sun and the Wind.
ny THE BARD OF TOWER IA

ny THE BARD OF TOWER HALL.
The Sun and Wind, (old writer's tell us,)
Once Of each others strength got jealous;
A while they quarrelled, fumed, and fretted,
Then of cigars box they betted
To be the prize, without denial,
OF him who strongest proved on trial;
And as a traveller went by
They both agreed on him to try
Their strength, aud by n powerful stroke,
To strip the wanderer of his cloak.
"Now," roared the wind, ''you'll see me do it,"
He puifed the fellows cloak, and blew it,
Trying his best away to tear il
But the owner thought he couldn't spare it
So all around the garment tucked in;
Then Phoebus cried, 81 think you're sucked in;
So Mr. Puffer, stop your bellows,
While convince such windy fellows
They can't begin my power to equal,
As you'll discover in the sequel"
Then he, with all his force began
To pour his beams upon the man,
Who soon-half melted in the blaze
Threw off his cloak, CHE story says
Then PL@bus cried, by forty Sykes,
I've won the bet-haud out the SKIES"
You may discover, if you're able,
A score of morals in this fable;
But one think will do at present:
Hot suns make winter clothes unpleasant
So. il you wish to feel luxurious,
While Summers heat ia fierce and furious,
To Tower Hall speed like fairy,
And pick out garments cool and airy,
from the largest and most complete assortment
in Philadelphl, comprising all sizes, styles
qualities, and prices. Our goods are unsurpas
sed in style and workmanship. We buy and sci
for cash only; therefore at the lowest possibl

Yoyaee Of the Good ship Union.

Tis midnight through my troubled dream
Loud walls the empest's cry;
Before the gale, with tatter'd sail,
A ship goes punging by.
What name Who're bound ?-The rocks around
Repeat the loud halloo-
The good ship Union, southward hound,
God help her and her crew
And is the old Gag flying still
That DER your fathers flew,
With bands of white and rosy light
Aud field or starry blue
Ay look aloft its folds full Oft
Have braved the roaring blast
And still shall fly when from the sky
This black typhoon has past
Speak, pilot OF the storm-tost bark
May thy peril share?
O landsman, these are fearful seas
The brave alone may dare
Nay ruler of the rebel deep,
What matters wind or wave
The rocks that wreck yonr reellng deck
win loave me nought to save
o landsman, ant thou false or true?
What sign hast thou to show
The crimson stains from loyal veins
That hold my heart blood's flow
Enough what more shall honor claim ?
know the sacred sign;
Above thy head our tag shall spread.
Our ocean path be thine
The dark sails on the Pilgrims Cape
Lies low along her lee,
Those headland crooks its anchor tnkes
To lock the shore and sea.
No treason here il cost too dear
To win this barren realm
And true and free the hands must he
That hQll ie wAalvrs helm
Still on Manhattan = narrowing bay
| No Rebel cruiser scars
Her waters feel no pirates keel
That haunts the fallen stars
But watch the light on yonder height
Ay, pilot, have a care
Some lingering cloud in mist may shroud
The capes of Delaware
Say, pilot, what this fort may be-.
Whose sentinels look down
From moated walls that show the sea
Their deep embrasures' frown?
| The Rebel hosts claims oil the coast
But these are friends, we know,
Whose footprints spoil the sacred soil,
Aud this is - Fort Monroe
The breakers roar,--how bears the shore
The traitorous wreckers hands
Have quenched the blaze that poured its rays
Along the Hatteras sands
Ha say not SO / see ils glow
Again the shoals display
The beacon light that shines by night,
The Union Stars by day
The good ship flies to milder skies,
The wave more gently flows,
The softening breeze watts over the sens
The breath of Beaufort's rose.
What fold is this the sweet winds kiss
Fair striped and many starred,
Whose shadow pals these orphaned walls,
The twins of Beauregard
What heard you not Port Royals doom?
How the black war-shps came
And turned the Beaufort roses bloom
To redder wreaths OF dame
How from Rebellion's broken reed
We saw his emblem fall,
As soon his cursed poison-weed
Shall drop from Sumter's wall?
On on Pulaski's iron hail
Falls harmless on Tybee
Her topsails feel the treshening gale,
She strikes the open sea;
She rounds the point, she threads the keys
: That guard the Land of Flowers,
And rides at last where firm and fast
Her own Gibraltar towers
The good ship Unions voyage is DER,
AT auchor safe she swings,
And loud and clear with cheer on cheer
Her joyous welcome rings;
