The Two Merchants.

When trade grew slack and notes
fell due, the merchants face grew
long and blue; his dreams were
trouble through the night, with
sheriff's bailiffs all in sight. At last
his wife unto him said: Rise up at
once, get out of bed, and get your
paper, ink and pen, and say these
words unto all men:
My goods I wish to sell to YOU,
and to your wives and daughters,
too; my prices they shall be so low,
that each will buy before they 20.
He did as his good wife advised,
and in the "papers advertised. I"
Crowds came and bought of all he
had; his notes were paid, his dreams
made glad; and he will tell to you
this day, how well did printers ink
repay. He told us this with know
ing wink, how he was saved by prin-
ter's ink.
The other in place as tight, con
tented was the press to slight; and
did not let the people know, of what
ne did or where to 60. His drafts
iell due and were not paid, and O
levy on his goods was made; the
store was closed until the sale, and
Tor some time he was in jail. A bank
rupt now without cent, at leisure he
can deep repent, that he was foolish
and unwise, and did not freely nd.
vertise.
Ii you think the moral of thi.
advertise. :

Congress-,

In the Senate, yesterday, Mr.. Stewart intro.
duced bill to provide Provisional Govern
ment for Alabama, which was referred to the
Committee on the judiciary. 1t declares the
Constitution framed at Montgomery the fuuda-
mental law for a Provisional Government so
far as the same is not in conflict with the laws
of the u S., and the officers elected at the
election for said Constitution shall, on the llrst
of May 1868, qualify, as provided IN the Con
stitution and the ordinances OF the Convention,
and shall Immediately enter upon the discharge
of the duties of their respective Offices Pro-
vision is made for converting the Legislature
and the submission of the Constitution to the
people of the State for ratification, majority
being sufficient to ratify the same, and upon its
ratification it shall be presented to Congress
for approval The Legislature is also required
to ratify the amendment to the Constitution OF
the u. S. known as the Fourteenth Article. |
The report OF the Committee on the Rules OF
the Senate was taken up, and several impor-
tant changes we're agreed to-. During the dis
cussion of the rules MIR. Davis made an attack
upon Secretary Stanton, and he was replied to
by Messrs. CONFESS and Fessenden in defence
from the President vetoing the bill relative to
appeals to the Supreme Court, and it was read,
Mr.. Davis moved to postpone action upon the
bill and veto until to-day, but this was rejected
A motion to 60 into executive session was also
rejected. A long debate in which Mr.. Rev
erdy johnson and other Democratic members
all urged the postponement OF the bill, follow
ed. Mr.. johnson moved to postpone the bill
until to day, and the motion was again rejected.
Finally the subject was laid over until this
morning, with the understanding that the vote
be taken at six o'clock this afternoon. At one
time it looked as if the two parties could not
agree, and that there would be night session;
but the Conservatives at last agreed to let the
