Gold,

Thompson's Reporter has the follow
ing upon the subject of gold:
Formerly gold had a value beyond
the cost of producing it, but since the
discovery of the vast regions of gold
bearing rock and soil of California,
Australia, etc., gold, like agricultural
and mineral products, has lost its fancy
value, and becomes valuable just in
proportion to the amount of labor re-
quired to produce it. California and
Australia furnish each about SO, 100000
pvt, or dollars, per annum. This pro-
duct is the result Of actual labor, as
much as the product Of farm; more
labor would bring more gold, the same
as moro labor would produce more
wheat. The labor in each case may be
attended with bad luck the crop may
fail-a season of mining may bring no
gold. In canvassing the chances for
rise or fall in gold, these views are
forced upon us; but this argument has
really very little to do with the price Of
gold; still it has just as much bearing,
and no more, on gold as it has on the
price of wheat.
Our legal tender paper money is the
standard for purchasing property, mer-
chandise, &c., including the precious
metals, aud for. paying debts. This le-
gal tender paper money will purchase
of the Government per cent. bond
at par \ thousand dollars of our pa :
per money is then as good as a thousand
dollar bond, and no better. A thou
sand dollar bond may be worth less or
more than thousand dollars in gold
hence our legal tender paper is worth
less or more than gold, according to
circumstances. The great influencing
circumstance is the rebellion. With
our country at peace, and with good
revenue laws, such as we now have,
Federal per cent bond is worth more
than its face in gold, but with the un :
certainities of war it is not worth so
much; hence our legal tender money,
which is fundable or convertible into
nothing but IA bond, is at a discount as
compared with gold; or, in common par
lance, gold is at premium; and the
premium will be higher or lower, just
as the chances of peace recede or come
near.
This is nearly all that can be said on
the gold question. The price of gold
rests with the army. Victories will
bring down the premium, defeats will
put it up. z~f .-.. ---ss

Deer Shooting.

By State law in the State of New
J York, from April to December, all per-
sons we're prohibited from killing deer,
under penalty of ten dollars, the in
former to get one half, and in default of
payment ten lashes on the naked back.
AYankee passing through the State
ofNew York, near Albany, in the month
of November, observed young Dutch
man, from barn door, squirting over
his shovel at deer about thirty PAGES
from him, and soliloquizipg thus:
"Mine Cot-ifI had my gun here, and
it was not for the law, would have
some teer for mine dinner"
The Yankee had rife with him and
Immediately shot the deer and threw his
= rife into the snow, unobserved by the
Dutchman, and running Up to him, said:
"Ahl my good fellow, you have been
killing deer-for saw you-you shot
him with The shovel" . 3
The Dutchman, vely much frightened.
replied:
Mine Cot didn't tink mine shovel
was loaded. did not tink it would go
off; never knew it to 60 off pefore.
"Well,' said the Yankee, s'you have
killed the deer, and l will go to the JUS
tice and complain of you, and make you
pay your fine, unless you give me the
skin and two dollars
"Vell," said the Dutchman, "tho |
did not tink my tam shovel would go off,
dat is peter as pay ten dollars"
So the bargain was concluded; the
Yankee receiving the skin and the two
dollars, left the Dutchman to take care
of the venison.
While the Dutchman was taking care
of the venison, and before he had put it
ont of the way, another Dutchmau came
up, and threatening to complain, upon
z which Hans, the shovel shooter, relate d
all that had passed between himself and
the Yankee
Vanderhausen told Hans he had been
imposed upon, that the Yankee killed
the deer himself. The two Dutchmen
then agreed to purse the Yankee, and
to bring him before the justice and have
him fined.
They soon overlook him and carried
him before the Justice, and Hans entere
his complaint pro bono puJltco. Where
upon, the justice, after hearing all the
testimony pro and con, and taking the
subject matter into cool, serious dellb
Grafton, come to the conclusion that the
Yankee killed the deer with certain
instrument called the rifle, and that he
pay fine of ten dollars, or that he be
whipped ten lashes. The Yankee chose
the latter. The justice then ordered
the Yankee to be stripped, tied to tree
and the whip applied. There being no
officer present, the justice coaelude d to
do the whipping himself, and at it he
went. After he had given the Yankee
FIVE lashes, and was proceeding to give
him the other five, the Yankee bawled
out
"Stop!"
"Vot," said the justice, "there is five
more to come"
The Yankee informed the justice thai
half the pay went to the informer.
"Dat is tie law" said the justice; Gun
tie the Yankee; tie up te Dutchman; give
him half te fine

Down among rebels and contra ba nd chattles,
What are ysa doing, my Wide-Awake man?
4 All the brave boys under canvas are sleeping,
All ofthem pressing to march with the van,
Far from the home where their sweet hearts
are weeping;
What are you waiting for, sweet little man?
You, with the terrible warlike moustaches,
Fit for colonel or chief of clan,
You, with the waist made for swerd-bolts and

Where are your shoulder-straps, sweet little

Bring lin the buttonless garment of woman!
Cover his face lest it freckle and tan;
Muster the Aprou-string Guards on the COM

That is the corps for the sweet little man!
Give him for escort file of young misses,
Each Of them armed with deadly rattan;
They shall defend him from laughter and
hisses
Aimed by low boys at the Vide Awake man.
AL the fair maidens about him shall cluster,
Pluck the white feathers from bonnet and fan,
Make him plume like turkey-wing duster
TAas is the crest for the sweet little man!
o, but the Apron-string Guards are the fellows!

Handle your walking-sticks r. 'Shoulder

Have we a nation to save? In the first place
Saving ourselves is the sensible plan,
Surely the spot where there's shooting's the

WhereI can stand, says the sweet little man
Such was the stuff of the A[alakof-takers,
Such were the soldiers that scaled the Redan;
Truculent housemaids and Llood-thirsty

Brave not the wrath ofthe Wide-Awake man
Yield him the sidewalk, ye nursery maidens
