ONE HUNDRED YEARS TO COME.

Who'll press for gold this crowded street,
A hundred years to come?
Who'll tread yon church with willing feet
A hundred years to come?
Pale. trembling age and fiery youth,
And childhood with his brow of truth,
The rich and poor, on land snd sea
Where will the mighty millions be,
A hundred years to come?
We all within our graves shall sleep,
A hundred years to come;
No living soul for us will weep,
A hundred years to. come;
But other men our land will till,
And others then our streets will fill,
And other birds will sing as gay,
And bright the sunshine as to-day,
Aahundred years to come.

more than their value. The merchant who
sells on time never knows what price IN paper
to set upon his goods, because he cannot tell
what money will be worth when the bills are
paid; he must, therefore, put his prices a:
such figures as will cover his risk OF loss by
fluctuations in paper. This takes place with
every successive buyer of the same articles
until they reach the consumer, who finds
himself unable to account for the exoTbltant
prices which he is compelled to pay. Tne
close calculations which indicate wholesome
condition of business, are no longer practical
BILE. The money-changing class profit by this
uncertainty, but eli the rest suffer, from the
largest capitalist to the humblest laborer
An abrupt return to gold and silver (or
their equivalent in convertible paper may
not be desirable on account Of the sudden
shock which would be produced, but the
resumption of specie payments and OF specie
rates and prices is the goal towards which
merchants, bankers and legislators ought to
strive with persistent effort. The country
will never again enjoy genuine and assured
prosperity until the great measure and regu-
lator of values, and the sole arbiter between
producer and consumer, laborer and en-
ployer, buyer and seller, debtor and creditor,
is adjusted to golden standard.

DANIEL GORREN, ESQ.

TO q wide and extensive circle Of friends
the sudden death of Daniel Gorren, Esq, will
be received with feelings of heartfelt regret
Born in New York city in the year 1919, about
1850 MI. Gorren came to New Orleans and
embarked in mercantile life, and has for the
past twenty-6v years, by his probity and high
character as business man, gained the con-
fidence Of all who knew him. As friend,
he was true, self-sacri6cing and reliable, a
man of noble impulses and high attributes,
generous and charitable to the needy, and
grateful to those who rendered him the most
trivial service.
His loss to our business community Is
severe one and will be felt by those whose
contact with him had taught them to appreci-
ate the worth of the man and the integrity Of
the merchant. To his grief-stricken family
we tender our deepest sympathies and trust
that an Almighty Providence may, in this
their hour of bereavement, send to them that
consolation which He alone can give, and
strengthen their hearts to bear up undev this
sudden blow.

WHAT IS THIS MYSTERY !
A Sea.Faring Yarn.

The facile and brilliant pen of Capt. Mar
ryatt has already made the pages of many
volume rich with the fragrance Of choice imagery
in sea -faring adventures. The phantom cruises
Of the "Flying Dutchman" have long since
passed into tradition, and it would seem that we
are to have renewal Of the whole story ii the
captains statement just arrived, can be accepted
without corroborative circumstances.
He states that on his last voyage from Ruatan
to this city, when in latitude ~ degrees 30 min
utes, longitude Ills West, during the dog watch
the man on the lookout sung out ''sail no" on
the starboard beam. The tention of all hands
was Immediately attracted to large square,
rugged ship bearing north. by east, half east,
with studding calls st.
The vessel appeared to be an East Indiaman,
as she had four guns outraged, and her paint
was considerably worn.
The schooner sent up her burgee with a
private signal, but no response was given from
the mysterious vessel.
No man could be seen at her helm and no one
on her decks Suddenly, and almost like flash,
this large and majestic craft disappeared from
sight, much to the wonderment Of the schooner's
crew. Those who were on board the fruiterer
find it difficult to give any solution OF this mys-
terry. and although their statements are singu-
larly alike, they offer no suggestion which might
lead to solvement of the matter. Whether this
ia a cock antl-bull story remains to be seen.

PRACTICABLE METHODS OF RELIEF.

The proposition to employ large number
Of laborers in the paving and improvement
of the levee front, the expenses to be met by
private subscription, is one that deserves to
be acted upon-frst, because it will furnish
relief to those who are able to work, but can
find no employment at any price; and, Sec
ond, because the improvement OF the levee
benefits the entire city and not any particular
portion thereof.
The honest laborer will suffer many hard
ships and endure the pangs of hunger for
many q long day before he will consent to re-
ceive aims, either for himself or his family !;
but he will welcome gladly any employment
that will enable him to earn livelihood, how
ever scanty or simple. Those men who clamor
for money and food and shirk employment,
arc not the most deserving Of consideration
or assistance, and there are thousands OF men
and women on the very verge Of starvation IN
this city to-day, who would lie down and die
without murmur rather than beg for food
or the money wherewith to purchase 1t. Inc
burly and blatant beggars who accost one on
the street with an affected whine, or else in a
sort of ..stand and deliver" style, are in nine
cases out Of ten undeserving Of charity, and
do infinite harm to those silent sufferers
whose gaunt, pale faces and sunken eyes tell
with mute, but startling eloquence, the story
of starvation and of the battle with despair.
Ye men and women Of New Orleans, who
live in ease and luxury, who know nothing OF
the pangs of hunger, whose little ones are the
very pictures of robust health, and for whom
tomorrow has no dreadful significance, who
eat and dance and make merry-pause and re-
fleet that there are suffering thousands around
YOU. thousands of despairing men and pale
faced women and little innocent children
whose pinched features and vacant eyes tel
unutterable tales of woe-who would be glae
to have the very crumbs that fall from you
bounteous tables.
1t is the browning glory Of woman that he
heart is ever moved to pity by the cries
distress, and it is, therefore, chiefly to ou
women that we look for the Inauguration O
some general and comprehensive plan OF re
lief for the m any who are in actual need II
this city, and who have before them long
dull summer. The city ought to be REGULAR
districted and committees of ladies and gen
tlemen appointed to visit the poor and need
in each district, so that every dollar as we'll
every pound of food would be given to thos
most in need.
; We ale glad to observe in this connecho
: the very liberal and generous proposition

prevements, to give one-half of his salary t
further the scheme for employing those VIII
: need and want work in improving the leve

praise and we hope will be emulated by Other
to the extent of their ability.
