From its hidden source secure,
In the waste OF void aud moor,
Where the purple heather CLOVIS,
Where the bee its harvest knows;
Dancing down mid flowers and moss,
Dashng in the sud en- "ioss''
Barking in the rocky pool
Glmmering mid The rushes cool
Through sun and shade, thi oual dusk and SILVER
Onward gHles the little river.
Through the mesdo&s broad an fair,
Under beech tree arches Tare
Ihrough deep oollands greer ard shady,
Past gray halls Of ''lorl and lady;''
Where white Lilies e seicne.c,
AMI great swans come floating queenly;
Where brown wings cool and hern
Glance from nests amid The fern;
Where tall W lows bend and culver,
Onward rolls the broad bright river.
Past great towns, whose Ieas anu riot
Start the waters from their quiet;
Past wharyes with birges heavy laden
Bright. sailed boats with youth and ,n.iden
Laundering paddles flashing back.
Mimic bowe from their tack.
BE ring an, Tor work or play,
Hnrrying on, through nighi and dav
Tribute waters to deliver
Seward rolls the mighty river.

The Pail Mall Gazette says: "To young gen.
tlemen beginning life, the story of Lord Albert
Clinton, as revealed in the Court of Bankruptcy,
may be recommended as an exhibition of those
things which they ought most to avoid. Lord
Albert has devoted his life thus far to the work of
showing how soon foolish young may bring
himself'to ruin. The bankrupt told the court : he
had done nothing ior years eeyond getting into
and 10000 under the marriage settlement. He
has now succeeded in reducing his income to f400
ayear; he has spent the fl0.0 900, and he owes
fs0,000 besides. The present age of this intelli-
gent scion ola noble house, is 2S. He has seen
life'-so much so that he lately passed five weeks
in intimate observation of existence in White
cross street. How proud his family must be Of

The City Election.

The election yesterday passed of so peace
ably and with so little excitement that, except
in the immediate vicinity of few polling
places in districts where there happened to be a
struggle over the minor Offices such as Alder
men, Assistant Aldermen or School Trustees,
it would have been difficult TO induce
stranger to believe that a contest was going
on for the Chief Magistracy Of the great city
of New York, with its twenty -four million dol
lars of annual taxation. A very light vote
was poled, not much more than one-half the
registration, and the republican vote fell off
nearly or quite one-half from that cast for
Grant and Griswold. A. Oakley Hall was
chosen Mayor and Richard O'Gorman Corpo-
ration Counsel by majority larger than the
number of votes cast for the republican can
didates. There appears to be question,
from the wording OF the charter, whether tho
| election OF Mayor was for two years or only
| for the unexpircd balance Of the term of the
retiring official. If the former construction
should prove TO be correct Mayor Hall will
not take possession of the Office until the LIST
Of January next; If the latter he will enter
| upon its duties as soon rs the result OF the
election is officially announced.
Mayor Hall win make a popular and efficient
Chief Magistrate Of the metropolis He has
broad, progressive views on the subject of
| local improvements. and will take rs much
| pride in the establishment Of the city and
the development Of its resources as the
Park Commissioners have manifested in the
| perfection Of their magnificent work. We
| predict that the people will have no cause to
regret that they have chosen him their Mayor
| by such decisive and Hattering majority.

There has been fight at Villa del C0bre,
and the government accounts still come
in with the number of insurgents killed and
wounded increasing. There will, doubtless,
be more trouble for month hence in getting
at the real facts of this petty fight than
there was in having an accurate history of tho
gigantic battles during our late civil war. So
much for the contrast between a country
where steam, electricity and live news
papers hold sway and the lands of turn
pixies, postboys and blanket sheets. We
have, however, some definite news this
morning from Puerto Principe. Count Bal
maseda has reached that capital; he has tried to
compromise with the insurgents some leaders
favored an amicable arrangement; the major,
ity want to fight it out on the independence
line Thereupon Count Balmaseda notified,
them all that bloody struggle would soon COM,
mence. There is strong force of Spanish
troops almost due in some Cuban port; the
insurgents have thrown down the gauntlet q
Spain and Spaniards. Can the insurgents rely
solely on themselves9 If not, whose is tbs
folly?
