Summer Days.
In Summer, when the days were long,
We walked together in the wood;
Our heart ). was :. light. our step was strG3Ig,
In Summer, when the days were long.
We strayed from morn till evening came;
We gathered flowers and wove us CROWNS.
We walked mid poppies red as flame,
Or sat upon the yellow downs.
And always wished our life the same.
In Summer, when the days were long,
:. We leaped the hedge-row. crossed the brook,
Or else she read some graceful book,
- In Summer, when the days were long.
And then we sat beneath the trees,
With shadows lessening in the noon,
And. in the sunlight and the breeze,
While larks were singing DER the leas.
In Summer, when the days were long,,
On dainty chicken, snow:white bread,
We feaste6, with no grace but song,
We plucked wild strawberries, ripe and red,
In Summer, when the days were long.
We loved, and yet we knew 1t not,
For loving seemed like breathing then;
We found q heaven in every spot, ..4.
Saw angels, too. In all good men,
And dreamed OF God in grove and grot.
In Summer, when the days are long,
Along wander, nauae, hlone;s
j see hernot, but that Old song
Under the fragrant wind is blown,
In Summer, when the days are long.
,Alone wander in the wood, .~,.
But one fair spirit hears my sighs;
And half see, so glad aad good,
The honest daylight In her eyes,
- That charmed me Under earlier skies.
In Summer, when the days are long,
love her as we loved Of old;
My heart is light, my step is strong,
For love brings back those hours of gold,
In Summer, when the days are long.

The CASSIE ca THE Decline IN GOLD
The New York Hcria, speaking of the
decline in gold, says The uselessness
of gold under our present lawful money
system is the real cause of its steady de-.
cline in price. There is really but little
legitimate use for gold in the city of
New York. The stock Of gold in the
city i- enormous. The only relief for
this glut of gold on our market namely,
it's export to foreign countries-seems to
be remote, owing to the large exports of
cotton and our bonds and othsr ssouri-
ties to Europe"

EAST rENNEssxE RAILROADS BEFORE CON-
gRRss


PAYMENT FROM SOUTHERN RAILROADS
The House Committee on the Judiciary met
yesterday morning, and had under considera-
ton bill providing for the enforcement Of the
collection of debts due from certain Southern
railroad companies. Judge Perry, Of Cincin-
natl appeared and delivered an extended argu-
ment in favor of the Government Hon. Viii
liam r. Chandler will be heard in connection
with this subject, and on behalf of the railroads
concerned, tomorrow. Washington Chronicle.
The Bill referred to above is one intro
duced to authorize the War Department,
through the Quarter-Master General, to
institute summary proceedings to enforce
the collection of the claims held against
the East Tennessee and Virginia, East
Tennessee and Georgia, and Nashville and
Chattanooga Railroads, and Others in the
South. 1t will be remembered by our read
ers that these claims are now i'm litigation
in the equity side of the Circuit Court of
the United States in this city. The pre-
liminary motion for an injunction and
Receiver, made in those suits, was heard
last November, before Associate Justice
Swayne, at Chambers, in the city of Nash
vile. The motion as prayed for was dis
allowed, but, by advice of Judge Swayne,
and by concent of parties, an arrangement
was made by which the companies
were left in possession of their roads and
rolling stocks until the litigation should
be finally determined.
The bill now under consideration by the
Judiciary Committee, is one which it il
said is not intended to effect our East Ten
nessee roads, but which in principle is adj
verse to their interests. Judge Perry, who
appeared for the Government before the
Committee, is counsel in the cases now
pending. Hon. VIM. Il. Chandler, who
appears for the roads, was formerly Assist
ant Secretary of the Treasury and is a law
yer of great ability and influence
We have not seen the text of the bill
under consideration, but hope that Con-
gress and the Committee will not now
make any new laws which will be preju-
dicial to the rights or interests of our East
Tennessee roads. We believe their claims
stand upon footing far different from these
or Southern roads, and we trust that Con-
gress will so recognize it by appropriate
legislation. The claims of the East Ten
nessce, Virginia and Georgia Railroad COM
pany are now under consideration by the
House Committee on claims, and the bill
before the Judiciary Committee is in the
nature of counter-movement on the
part of the Quartermaster's Department.
We shall await with interest further de-
velopements in the action of the Commit
tee.
