THURSDAY EVENING. October IA. 1875.
We have no material change to note in
the market to-day. The offerings at the
banks were reported of fair extent, and
there was good demand for money on the
street. with no quoaable variation In rates.
Gold was higher, corresponding with the
advance in New York. and the rates here
are etill above New York quotations, but
the discrepancy was not so material as yes
terday. A moderate movement was re-
ported in foreign exchange, while domestic
was i'll fair demand and a shade higher for
commercial. The stock market continued
neglected. with only one transaction re-
ported. A few sales of city bonds were
made, of which the particulars are given
below, and new State Consos were in bet
ter demand and advancing.
We continue to quote collateral loans at
10 u cent T. month: first class CONNER

sTHE PENNY YE MEANT TO spE.n

There's funny tale of stingy man,
VINO was none too good, but might have been
worse,
Who went to his church on a Sunday night.
And carried along his well-1lled purse,
When the sexton came with his begging-plate.
The church was but dim with the candies
light;
The stingy man fumhled all through his purse
And chose coin by touch and not sight.
It's an odd thing now that guineas should be-
80 like to pennies in shape and size.
I'll give penny" the stingy man said.
'.Ihe poor must not gifts Oh pennies despise.''
The penny fell down with clatter and ring!
And back in his seat leaned the stingy man.
~ can't help them ALL give what can"
Ha, hal how the sexton smiled, to be sure,
10 see the gold guinea fall in his platef
Ha, hal how the stingy mans heart was
Wrung,
Perceiving his blunder, but just too latel
'No matter" he said; Sin the Lords account
That guinea Of gold is set down t, me.
They lend to Him who give TO the poor; .
1t Will not SO bad au Investment be-"
sNa. ma, mon," the chuckling sexton cried out;
"Phe Lord is ma cheated-He kens thee we'll
He knew it was only by accident
That cut o. thy fingers the guinea fell
SHE keeps an account, ma doubt, for the puir;
But in that account He'll set down to thee
Ma mair o that golaen guinea, my mon,
Than the one bare penny ye meant to gi'el'
There's comfort, too, in the little tale
A serious side as well as a joke;
A comfort for all the generous poor,
In the c0mical words the sexton spoke.
A comfort to think that the good Lord knows
How generous we really desire to be,
