Eerilous 0oainrfpse,

Robert Houdon used to say that
f the public knew What ppasses
through the mind Of a ieon;sror
when he sees the barrel of q pistol
turned toward him in the course
IF "firemans trick, - they would
perhaps give him credit for, as
nuch nerve and courage % the.
9rayest soldier shoYs in battle
An omission ip some trifiing point,
ihe breaking off Of the ANAL part
Of the false ramrod, OF the real
bnllet as it il being Withdrawn,
may make the discharge fatal
Often, too, the trick Is . new one,
and some miscalculation may make
The plan a failure where failure
may mean death. '' ..-,.' 80.
A circumstance in HoudonS life
shows how daring tho coiiurors
who amuse ne, will often play With
danger, depending on their ready
fingers to secure their safety. He
had performed some startling fire.

bians, making use, Of course, Of
the ordinary form Of conjuring
pistol, which is so contrived that
the rsmrod withdraws the bullet.
While the rest of the party we're
expressing their sdlniration, o Graf:
ty old Marabout, who had some
suspicion OF the true nature of the
trick said: "The stranger is doubt
less a strong magician, will yon
suffer me to fire at him with nv
own pistolr "Yes,n said Hon-
don, nnhesitating!y )" but I must
make invocation to those who as
gle. me-" The next day he met
the same party, and offered sau-
cerful Of bullets to the inspection
Of the Marabont. Satisfied that
they were lead-as indeed they
were-the Arab handed his pistols
to Houdon, who loaded them, us.

was in perplexity when she saw

Hondon was seen with the bullet
between bis teeth. "Bah," he
said .seizing the other pistol, /" you
cannot nse yonr own Weapons
Ses here You have been unable
to draw blood from my acsh, and
will draw blood from yonder
wall" He aimed at the wall,

blood was seen. The Marabout
went up to the wall, and when he
bad dipped his fingers into the
blood, which was .trickling down,
bis awe and amazement were 80
great that his features assumed a
Shastly hue. Yet the trick was
simple enough, two prepared bull
lets having been skillfully substi-

bullets he took up from the saucer.
Bnt tho experiment. was quite new,
and Houdon tells us that he trem.
bled, and ceuld scarcely control his
terror as he saw the Marabout
drawing the trigger of the pistol.

Beautiful Sunday.

Br A. ,. n. pUa6NNE,
How beautiful is Sunday,
Tho resting day of Toll,
When quiet broods upon the cir,
Aud silence on the soil;
And Ger the suniit meadows
The calm Of twilight sleeps,
And through the woodland shadows;
Tho hush Of evening oroeps;
When weary earth reposes,
BY Heavens smile earess'd--
How beautiful Is Sunday, SD.
Tho Poor Mans day Of rest.
How beautiful Is Sunday,
So holy end 80 stiiiS ...
1t hears no jar of whiriing wheel,
No din of mart or mill;
No ring Of aHe or hammer,
No SQUAD Of groaning vain;
10 voice Of human clamor,
No throb Of lebor's pain.
Tho march OF strife n halted,
The cries OF battle cease!
How bcaas;ful is Suadsy,
nsssatk the kiss of Peace. ...
How beautiful is Sunday,
When Through the village street,
The little children, had in hand,
; Go Es Eiti sssss feet; g..
Before them, slowly wending,
The elders, twain by twain,
Wilde se,emu bells are pleading ..
With hymns OF tender strain,
Beneath the elden portals
And by the church yard sod
How beautiful Is Sunday, ,...
That makes q path to God.
nou beautiful is Sunday,
That uoships without words,
From incense. cups OF fragrant flowers,
1ad ehoiIs OF gentle birds
With soiema rstI Of rivers,
Aud fountains golden chime,
And low hymns Of the .ephyrs.
Aud uaSontain praise sublime;
when Heaven and earth grow nearer,
And kueel in sweet accord
How bcaatifal is Sunday,
The presence Of the Lord.

THE NEW CITY Charter.

We publish in another column, official.
ly, the new city charter, which will be read
with great interest by everybody. 1t is
an important measure, and one which we
should have had at the first session of the
Legislature.
The principal new features are the
change in the system of the city govern
ment from the old plan. of Aldermen and
Assistant Aldermen to a single board,
composed of the Mayor and seven admin
istrators, and the enlargement of the
boundaries of the city by annexing Jefsr-
son City, Burtheville, Greenville and Al
giers.
The new government will be, in some
respects, analogous to the bureau system
established by General Butler in 1862.
The main features of the new charter were
suggested by the Property Owners Asso-
cation in 1863. We believe they are gen
orally acquiesced in and approved by the
majority of the two great political parties
which divide The voters Of the city.
The appointments of the Governor I'M
der this new charter will probably be
announced some time during the day.
There is considerable anxiety in the public
mind to know who are the fortunate gen.
tlemen to be selected, and various theories
are rife on the subject. We commend all
parties to careful reading OF the law
and patient awaiting of events, which
transpire with sufficient rapidly.

ON CARONDELET STREET,

Yesterday was another dull day in Car
pitious, and the brokers, who congre-
gated near the corner OF Common street,
were glad to seek the friendly shelter of
projecting awnings, or the precincts of
the "Gold Room" Within the portals of
this establishment fancy stocks were the
theme of conversation throughout the
day. The principal objects of traffic
were Ship Island and Slaughterhouse.
The former opened with an advance
ing tendency, and holders demanded
l9o, but the price was, subsequently,
fixed at 1856. At this figure some
transa :tions were made. Slaughterhouse

Gold yesterday was weaker than for
some time previous. In New York the
price went below 112 at the closing, so
that the "bull movement seems to be
pretty well exhausted. A Western dis

goods merchants, was for large amounts,
owing to the shrinkage of values consequent
upon the fall in gold. There are many
country merchants here now, but they do
not seem inclined to purchase heavily for
the present.
