HOME.

When daily tasks are done, and tired hands
Lie still and folded on the resting knee,
When loving thoughts have leave to loose thei1
bands,
And wander over past and future free;
When visions bright of love and hope fulfilled
Bring weary eyes spark of oden fire,
One castle fairer than the rest we build,
One blessing more than others we desire;
home, our home, wherein, all waiting past
We two may stand together, and alone;
Our patient task-wOrk finished, and at last
Loves perfect blessedness and peace our own
Some little nest of safety and delight,
Guarded by Gods angels day and night.
We cannot guess if this dear home shall lie
In some green spot EMPOWERED with archinp
trees,
Where bird notes, Joined with brook notes Gid
ing by,
Shall make us music as we sit at ease.
Or if amid the city's busy din
Is built the rest for which we look and long,
No sound without shall mar the peace within,
The C I'm of love that time has proved SC
strong,
Or if-ah, solemn thoughti-this home of ours
Doth lie beyond the worlds confusing noise;
And if the nest be built in Eden's bowers,
What do we still but silently rejoice?
We have ahome, but of its happy state
We know not yet. We are content to wait.

The village of Bethlehem, in Syria, the
birthplace of Christ, is at this time the
scene of dlsgraeeful quarrel between the
Latin and Greek patriarcbs. In the quaint
old church which is supposed to stand on
the spot where stood the msager in which
Christ was laid at his birth, the chief of the
Roman Catholics has hung new tapestry
curtain across the ''Grotto of the Nativity
in the place of the one burnt in 1871, aud
which the Ottoman government was to
have replaced in order to end the traditional
disputes between the Greek and Latin
churches, relative to the proprietary rights
in said curtains. This action of the Latin
clergy has called ont protest from the
Greek, which the Greek patriarch at Jeru-
salem has ad 'ressed to the sublime porte.
Both parties have now agreed to refer the
question to tie French Ambassador at
Constantinople.

THE legal meaning of the word s'either"
was graveiy argued in an English Court of
Chancery the other day. A certain tesla
tor left property, the disposition of which
was affected by the ''death of either" oftwo
persons. One lawyer insisted that .seither'
meant both; and in support of this view he
quoted Richardson, Webster, Chaucer, Dry
den, Southey, the story of the Crucifxion,
aud passage from Revelations. d The
Judge suggested that there was an old song
IN THE Beggar's Opera" which took the
other view: ',How happy could I be with
either, were tother dear charner away
In pronounclng judgment, the court ruled
that "eithern meant one of two, and did
not mean 'both." 1t might have that mean
ing occasionally in poets, but never in a
Court of Chancery.

The merry heart! the merry heartl
OF heavens gifts hold thee best;
And they who feel its pie asant throb,
Though dark their lot, are truly blest.
From youth to age it changes not; =
In joy and sorrow still the same;
When skies are dark and tempest scowl,
1t flames a steady beacon fame.
1t gives to beauty half its power;
The nameless charm worth all the rest,
The light that dances DER face,
And speaks of sunshine in the breast,
If beauty meier have set her seal,
1t well supplies her absence too,
And many a check looks passing fair
Because merry heart looks through,

A SONNET no PAULINA.

By PAUL II. HAYNE.
Thine eyes are like the fawn's so clear and shy,
And all thy motions own maiden grace;
There is pure, deep pathos in thy face
Shading its heauts--Oh, how tenderly,
Like those mild clouds which glinmer gently
nigh
A summer moonrisel Gazing thus on thee,
think of some low, melting harmony
Which blends divinely with the south-Wind's
sigh
When twilight fancies touch our hearts to tears.
Dear grill sweet spirit may this mournful life,
So hard TO others, at Gods soft command
Pass DER thy head in bright harmonious years,
Like birds OF Eden, whose rare notes are RTE
With loving concords from the heavenly landl

LOCAL STOCKS AND BONDS.

Tennessee bonds were quoted in New
York yesterday at 1870. Under this quo
tation they would bring here about 7844c.
The past due coupons are very dull at 60c.
Comptrollers' warrants are very dull in
in the absence of any demand by taxpayers,
and brokers will not offer over 94c.
The main feature in our local stocks is
the advance in Nashville and Chattanooga
Railro i'd stock, which is now quoted at
73c. We heard of a sale yesterday of ST.
900 at Is. This stock has been in demand
for a very long time and has been strong at
the quotation whatever that might be-.
This road is said to be doing an immense
business, and notwithstanding its working
capacity has been increased very much,
both by the addition of engines and cars, it
cannot transport the freight that is offered
and is frequently weeks behind. From the
work it is known this TO ad is doing, it is be-
lieved that coed round dividend cannot
be withheld from the stockholders many
months longer. In addition to this an opini-
on is prevalent that a stock dividend of at
least so per cent will be declared at the
meeting of the stockholders in August
next, and that thereafter the stock will be
an eight per cent paying stock. This rapid
advance and prospective advance speaks
well for the management of the road.
We hear of no change in other stocks and
for rates paid we refer to the quotations as
given by the National Savings Company,
corner Union and College streets.
