serenade, both vocal and instrumental,
accompanied BY liberal discharge Of

In response, General Schurz spoke
briefly in English, after which the
enthusiastic crowd dispersed.

American Securities Abroad.

Our Consul at Frankfort, writing to
the. .Departmentofs State. says lead
ing fnancier Of that city explains the
increasing demand for United States
securities by the Circumstance that
the United States are making an ad-
vantageous exception from all other
countries of reduced currency; for
while the latter are, obliged to cover
deficiencies by the contraction of new
loans under more and more onerous
conditions, and are thereby more and
more embarrassing their finances, the
United States are successfully work I
ing for a reduction of their public
debt, and consolidation of the same
by paying off their obligations at short
maturity.

their faith in the Union cause than as

in the name of the Union cause, rather

SONG OF THE BROOK.

From the spring beneath the beach tree,
Where the bubbling waters rise,
There began my wayward wander1ngs,
Meath the blue and summer skies.
Like thread of liquid crystal,
By some fairy fingers spun,
Lengthening out my tiny current,
Day and night tireless run.
Through the meadows, where the daisies
Fleck the emerald turf with snow,
With the sunshine in my bosom,
Singing merrily 60.
Through the woods with troops of shadows
. Dancing through the restless leaves;
Where the wild vines DER me streaming
Many a quaint, weird chaplet weaves.
And the sun, like golden rain drops, !.
Filters through the oaken screen
Where the moss-beds and the ichens
Edge my path with tufts Of green.
Down the rocky hillside sliding
In and out, from stair to stair,
Till, midway the rocks DER sweeping,
One swift plunge, the last, dare.
Then, from outthe white foam stealing,
Past the mill make my way,
Where the ponderous wheel hangs dripping,
Green with moss for many day.
Underneath the little foot bridge,
Where the sunburnt children fish,
With their bare feet dangling downward
For my cooling lips to kiss.
Hiding in the rocky shadows,
Shining by the dusty way --- ---
Murmuring by the lowly cottage,
Whispering meath old turret gray.
Ginning this refrain forever,
AS i tinklng, ripple on:
'Tis the heart we hear within us
Maketh life sigh or song.

A SLIGHT MISTAKE.

A story-teller relates the following, to show how
fond people were of play during the flush tunes on
the Mississippi, before the war. He says:
I had been down in Arkansas. and during my
stay in that country became acquainted with one OF
her citizens, concerning whom very good story
was told. He had been to C9ngress ana was no no
ted for the great care he took OF bus personal ap
pearance. The faro dealers on the Mississippi Klv-
er boats were wont to carry the peculiar implements
of their profession in small mahogany boxes.
Our representative friend, upon a certain time,
having occasion to 90 up the river, took with him,
for state-room convenience toilet box, which Tor
few minutes after getting on the boat ne carried
in his hand His advent was very cheering TO the
souls of two or three Kentucklans on board, VINO
had been all day itching to jump at tiger,
thinking, from bis foppish appearance and from
the box he carried in his hand, that he was mem
ber of the sporting fraternity After consultation
among themselves, one of the Kentuckians advan-
ced toward Mr. -, and in most affable tone
bade him good evening. The salutation was re-
turned courteously, and thus encouraged, Ken
tucky proceeded to interrogate: .,
"When you going to open up, Stranger
ssWhat did you observe, sirT said the honora-
bic member, not precisely understanding the DRIFT
Of the remark.
'Ol open up, you know; when are you going to
give us show agin the animal? 80. -,
IT don't understand your allusion, sir, in the
least. I am entirely in the dark regarding your
meaning in asking such questions, sir, was an
swered with dignity.
"Ola-playing the 'posssum game areyou! ;, May,
be you think we amt game tor your gun, salo
Kentucky, and as his companions came up, ne ex-
hibited a large roll of bills, ard added, Thar ar
three such bundles in this crowd stranger, and ken
tucky boys arn't afeard to risk their money. Wont
you open up this evening, Stranger
Mr.. was growing angry; the passengers
were beginning to press around; and In voice
bursting with wrath, he asked:
"For whom do you take me, sir, and what 90
YOU suppose is my business"
sTake you for? What should we take you tor
Amt that faro box? Maybe you mean to say you
are not sporting gentleman, and never heard OF
sich a thing as tger!
A light began to break upon the mind OF the as
tonished gentleman from Arkansas. Anxious to
correct q misapprehension which he saw extended
to the passengers, he nervousy unlocked his toilet
box, and displayed to the vision OF the kentuck,
ians his complement of combs and brushes, and
other adiuncts of the toilet in triumph.
Silence was observed for moment on both sides,
Then the Kentuckans, with an air Of disgust, turn
ed away simultaneously, as one Of them muttered :;
Stranger, we thought you were sporting Gen
aenae! But if we had knowed you war barber,
we wouldn't have spoken to you"
