mer, and from the cellar it was allowed
to rest at length in the cell where it
lies to-day. Whether this account of
the occupants themselves concerning
its treatment be correct, certain 1t is,
that the block as described, with the
inscription as given, is in this dark
coal hole in the cellar Of the White
House, and in any case it is a disgrace
to the present occupant that 1T hes
there-it is more than d~isgraceful, it
is Infamous.
In this connection. though the
story or the legend of Servius Julius
is familiar to every reader, it will be
tween the old Roman King and
President Lincoln. The King was of
humble origin. He was a soldier in
his early manhood. He was kind to
the poor, heartily espoused the cause
of the masses, strove constantly to
elevate them, and especially to confer
upon them the right to vote. Upon
announcing his determination to in
troduce a freer form of government.
he was assassinated by his son-in- law,
who, uniting with the disaffected Sen
ators. was able to bid defiance to the
resentment of his subjects. The
memory of Servius lived long among
the common people. their v~eneration
for him constantly increased, and the
usurper with his followers lived in
daily fear lest the people should rise
in their power and restore the laws of
the martyr. From all this the full
beauty of the inscription, and the
character of the sentiment which
prompted the gift, will appear, and
stern voices will speak to all from out
that past 2,400 years in condemnation
of Andrew Johnson's treatment of
Mr.. Lincoln's memory.

noblest Bergundy; bananas and pine
apples to make favor, and cigars that
are in every roll of the rich leaf a
dream of sensual content folded
away. And all the money falls to
stolid or eager countenances survey
ing. and those who are ruined dare
not for their guilty vanity show de-
spair, and those who win are lured 20

ties of social life meet; the pickpock-
ct and the detective ready to turn upon
each other like hyenas as soon as they
have passed their portal.
If you will pass from the rear OF
the Fifth Avenue Hotel, at night,
down Twenty-fourth Street, you will
see all around you the palaces of
gamblers. They pay the best rents;
if you scruple t o let your house to
them, they will pay down the full
years rent in advance, and bring you
police assurance that you will suffer
no blame. Here has long resided a
celebrity in his profession. He
possessed by nature the gamblers
two great qualifications, boldness and
FEASIBILITY. So glib and deferential
is he that you do not heed the coarse
ness of his English. In his stalwart
role of the frank and courageous host
you barely mark his bruised counte-
nance. and the low, ~curveless fore
head. Among these mirrors and
Turkey carpets and plush chairs, how
can you recall the giant in cropped
hair, blackened knuckles. and des-
perate scowl, shaking the heart of his
adversary while he shook his hand
with the cool assurance that he meant
to kill him at the ropes. Strange that
such men possess almost the friend
ship of the sage and potent citizens
here who are of venerable descents,
while all the day their associates are
the "cappers, "strippers, "ropers,"
and SINNERS" who walk on the
margin of the penitentiary.
l do not believe that among the
more respectable classes gambling is
so universal as in European cities,
but the American plays a more des-
perate game. Among the lower or
ders, however, gambling is the one
great vice. There are four thousand
policy shops in New York, ard six
thousand dens and. cellars, and crazy

sand is the estimated number of pro-
fessional gamblers of first carat in
New York, but this probably includes
the gamblers parasites. who are anx-
ious to pass for his rank. These pro-
fessionals do not acquire more income,
upon an average, than $1,000 a year,
and must exc out a living by some
other dishonorable course; $1,000 a
night is the estimated sum lost in the
city at games of chance, but the fash
ionable clubs for the most part, per-
init gambling. Broadway, after mid
night, is dimly illuminated by the
lamp of gamblers in the second sto-
ries, and yet, all the games that are
played, however ostensibly fair, are
nightly made dishonorable. Holes
are cut in the ceiling, where a spy
reads the hand of the dupe, and
telegraphs the result to his opponent.
-" Braces" or false double boxes are
used in faro. What gambler can be
honest and consistent?

HEINITsH's CELEBRATED
GERMAN HORSE POWDER
For all Diseases to which Horse is Liable.

HHE various diseases to which that no.
u Bile and useful animal, the horse. ia
subject, and tho little knowledge that is
tnown OF them by farriers and ignorant
ostlers, have occasioned many remedies to
be offered to the public under different
forms, with high encomiums, and sane
toned by dignified names. Some OF these
are injurious; others, at best, of little use,
and many entirely worthless, and do not
meet the want. A good medicine, free
from objections of this kind, has long been
desired by many gentlemen who have va
luable horses. We therefore offer the only
good medicine-the true &C ERM a N
HORSE POWDER" which has proved SO
efficacious in all the diseases. 1t is pre-
pared from the original recipe of Dr. Hei-
nitsh, OF Germany. It's extraordinary vir-
tues are attested to by thousands, and for
nifty years has stood, and still stands, first
III the estimation of all experienced farm
ers and agriculturists as the best medicine
for the horse. Il is recommended for
horses foundercd by eating to excess or
drinking cold water when heated, to such
as have symptoms Of glanders or arc cx-
posed to the infection by being with other
horses, for indigestion, distcmper, hide
bound, drowsiness, loss of appetite, inward
sprains, debility, wasting of flesh, sore
eyes, swelled legs, grease, mango, surfeit,
OLD coughs, for exhaustion from work. It
carries OIL all foul humors, purihes and
cools tho blood, and prevents horses be-
coming stiff and foundered. It is stimu-
ius tor weak stomachs, and renders tho
limbs and skin soft and fine, giving a
smooth coat to the hair. Ask for "Hei-

Five O'clock i'm the Morning.
The dew lay glittering on the grass, i.-9
a mist lay on the brook;
at the earliest beam of the golden sun, =
The swallow her nest forsook. .
The snowy bloom Of the hawthorn tree
Lay thickly, the ground adorninR;
The birds were singing in every bush,
At five o'clock in the morning.
And Bessie, the milk-maid, merrily sang,
For the meadows were fresh and fair:
The, breeze of the morning kissed her
brow,
And played with her nut-brown hair;
But oft she turned and looked around.
AS If the silence scorning;
Twas time for the mower to whet his
scythe,
At five o'clock in tho morning.
And over the meadow the mowers came,
And merry their voices rang;
And ono among them wended his way
To where the milk-maid sang;
And, as he fingered by her side,
Despite his comrades warming,
The old, old story was told again,
At five o'clock in the morning.

A M1xN' OF THE BAB1Es.-Some
time ago, there was dancing party
given up North; most of the ladies
present had little babies, whose noisy
perversity required too much atten-
ton to permit the mothers to enjoy
the dance. A number of gallant
young men volunteered to watch the
young ones while the parents in
dulged ina "break down." No sooner
had the women left the babies in
charge of the mischievous devils than
they stripped the infants and changed
their clothes, giving the apparel of
one to another. The dance over, it
was time to go home, and the mothers
hurrledly took each baby, in the
dress OF her own, and started, some
to their homes ten or fifteen miles
OIL, and were for on their way before
daylight. But, the day following,
there was q tremendous row in the
settlement; mothers discovered that
q single night had changed the sex of
their babies. Observation disclosed
the physical phenomena, and then
commenced some of the tallest fe.
male, pedestrianism; living miles
apart, it required two days to unnix
the babies, and as many months to
restore the women to their natural
sweet dispositions. To this day, it is
unsafe for the baby mixers to venture
into the territory.
