Generosity Repaid.

In old times, when debtors were liable
to Imprisonment, q gentleman now well
known In this city failed, and was forced
by some of his relentless creditors to
become the inmate of prison. But
among his creditors was one glorious
spirit, who. by great exertion, and by
involving himself, fully accomplished
the liberation of his friend. He was a
commission merchant, and partner in a
house that ranked with the first in our
city for q period Of nearly fifty years,
without the slightest taint of blemish.
In the evening of his days, however,
misfortune reached him, and he found
his house tottering amid the financial
storm of last autumn; and whilst his dis
tress was geatest, and his fortunes
looked darkest, the bread that he had
cast upon the waters, siX-lnd.twenty
years before, came floating to his door.
1t was his former debtors check-book,
showing balance in one Of our city
banks Of TWO hundred and fifty thousand
dollars, with checks signed in blanks to
his order, and a request that he would
use the whole, or any part. il IT would
be Of service to himl-tPhiladelphis

An Old-Tirne Joke.

When about seventeen, the poet Camp
bell, together with couple of friends,
played a joke upon d couple Of trades
mon in the Trongate of Glasgow. A re-
spectacle apothecary named Fife had
placard in his window, printed in large
letters: "Ears pierced by A. Fife,''
meaning the operation to which young
ladies submit for the sake of wearing
earrings. Fife's next door nejghboi
was spirit dealer, named Drum, and
these two shopkeepers were. from some
cause or other, on bad terms. Tom ano
friends struck on an expedient for recon,
cillng them. They procured long deal
board, and painted ON it in flaming capi
tails this Inscription from "Othello:
sThe spirit stirring Drum-the. ear
piercing Fife" This they nailed one
night over the contiguous doors, to the
great annoyance OF Drum and Fife, and
the great amusement Of every one else ir

BY TELEGRAPH.
New Hampshire.

New YORK, March ga special dispatch
to the Times from Concord, N. H., says the
campaign ended last night with great meetings
10 the larger cities of the State, held by both
parties. Both parties show by their canvasses
that the State is sure, and it is impossible 10
predict the result. There can be no doubt that
both parties are 10 a better condition than ever
before. The Prohibitionists are scarcely heard
of, and the feeling is that they will very gen.
orally vote with the Republicans. About Con-
gressmen there is little talk, the interest being
centered in the Gubernatorial contest. 1t is
thought the First District will be carried easily
by the Republicans. The Second will be saved
by a small majority, aud the Third will go to
a Democrat. The excitement over the natur-
a~lization frauds is great. Yesterday two ar
rests were made, and one man confessed he
had falsely sworn and had run in several
men and intended to grind the mill further.
There is exciting talk here but no serious trouble
is apprehended. All are hoping for a good day,
much depending on the weather.
MANCHESTER, N. H., March 9.-The cleo
ton throughout the State is progressing quiet
ly, the excitement preceding the election hav-
ing given away to calmer feeling. Voting is
brisk and up to noon a larger vote has been poll
ed than ever before. Both parties are polling
their full strength and there are but few split
tickets. In this city the democrats lead 10 a
majority of wards, and express confidence of
being able to carry the city.

The U. S. steamship Mooougahela brings. news
from the American scientific expedition locat-
ed at Kcrguelen Land for the purpose of OBJ
serving the transit of Venus. Their labors in
observing the planet track on the 9th Of De-
cember were eminently successful. The wealth
er was very favorable considering the general
state Of the weather on Dessolation Island. The
English aud French parties stationed there for
the same purpose were also successful in OBJ
serving the phenomenon. Several excellent
photographs Of the sun at periods of the plau-
cts contacts we're obtained. All the instru-

absent aud the sexton at once showed them to

ladies, who we're strangers and who had pre-,
viously been shown 10. The latter we're high
