All day the south wind nestled in the trees

And fell ON moss and stone.
The golden rod has lost its crown OF fame,
Tie aster MT It's doom,
Ere yet adown tie hills tie frost king came
To blast their wildwood bloom.
The meadows still their robes Of freshest green
Wore IN those autumn days,
And through their brightness with its Sayest sheen
The sparkling river plays,

Some glad remembrance Of the genial time
Gone with the passing year.

In THE CITY.

Two artless souls met today
A P II Of homespun lovers;
As llghtsOrns and as careless they
As aught the sunshine covers.
Stray moths that fioat the summer through
Had wingless seemed beside them,
Who, wholly glad, fouCd nOught 10 do
With what might yet betide them.
Along the busy street they slept,
Their arms close intertwistei,
And of the crowd no record kept
While one 10 other listened
could not hear a word they said,
Yet quick, returning chances
Between them, spoke Of spirits wed
Like those in old romances.
The satchel Swinging on his arm,
his garments quantity fitted,
Her old-time dress dress vet girlish charm,
All help me while they fitted.
cav they would not barter one
OF either's valued kisses
For any riches under sun
that make up rneaner blisses.
And then thought how heaven comes down
To bless the simple-heartel,
Who have nc care for fashions frCwn;
Nor fear but 10 Le parted.
Ami thought, too, If the world but guessed
The half of what it loses
By sighting love, 'twould stand confessed
In shame of what II chooses
Yet nothing wrecked the happy pair
OF sugh lesson needed
By folk O.. rlooke,l, while passing there
Themselves rs little needed
All unconeerned they DR., amed not why
/ seemed their tell tale faces,
And pitied silent ones 60 by
To cold, heart-lunely places.
These laughed and talked deliGhting each,
And slept as On the heather;
Supremely blest one goal TO reach,
Linked arm IN arm together.

PUBLIC DEET AND INTEREST.-The Uni.
ted States pays six PEI cent interest On
S1,O1O, All $50 of bonds When We consider
that rhe interest ia paid in gold, which l.
ordinary business currency Of this country,
this rate Of interest seems excessive. France
and England can borrow all the money they
want at from three 10 four per cent. In
effect the amount Of interest money paid Is
of more importance than the amount of the
bonded debt Neither England nor France
contemplate paying the principal Of their
debt. but their people will DE taxed to the
limits Of endurance 10 pay the interest prompt
ly. Adding one per cent. to the interest,
therefore, il equivalent to adding about one
fifth TO the principal. For instance, debt
Of $500, 600, 600 at four per cent l. no more
burdrnsomu than n debt of S400. 800. go at
FIVE per cent. The principal is larger and
would he more difficult to pay, but if no one
proposes to pay the principal, that does not
make 20 much difference Even if the prin'
cipal should be paid in full at some remote
period Of time, the amount will have been
paid many times previously in the form OF
interest. Keeping the Importance. OF interest
in view, it will be satisfactory to know that
the secretary Of the treasury has been success
| full in placing the new issue of $500, ,OW
of FIVE per cent. bonds. This Will enable
him to redeem an equal amount Of the siz
per cents The action of the government IN
voluntarily paying gold interest where legal
tender was all the bond required, should
make cur credit as good as that OF England
/ or France; our resources are as large, and
/ the discrimination Of the people to Psy then
debts can no longer be doubted. Thr reduc'
( ton in the rate OF interest Is but forerunner
Of vha. Is TO come We sell five per cent
bonds now, and in few years, If We main
tain our credit, We will refund at four Pei
cent.
