WAITING.

Five years to wait" Don't do il,
Ny innocent, blue.eyed maid,
For the years inay lats a lifetime,
While your youthful roses fade!
While your eyes are red weeping,
And watching the treacherous sea;
Till you sing the song OF lone one,
He never came back to me"
Five years 10 wait, while others
Arc dancing the dance OF youth,
And the one, perhaps. you are trusting
Is breaking his VOWS forsoothl
shall wait for my love, my darling,
Who has sailed far over the sea,
Five years, or ten, or twenty
Said tue blue.cyed maid 10 me.
So she wrote her lover letters,
Or tended her garden flowers,
Or watched the restless bill Jws
On the beetling cliff for hours;
While she turned her suitors pining
Away from the cottage door,
And waited. patlestly waited,
One long, long year or more.
~iis very weary waiting"
said the blue-eyed maid b me,
And she glanced at her last new euitor,
And then at the restless sea:
A. she glasces at the roses fading
In her garden fair and bright;
Twice come, twice gone, since he left her
Two years before that night.
Anl she married her las, new suitor
Before the sinter sped;
And sbC wrote 10 her absent lover
On the dav that che was wed,n

A CHINESE STORY.

+ ~
yorc arc SO wise a. they who make pretense
TO know what fate conceals from mortal sense
This moral from tale OF Ho-hanR,ho
Might have been drawn thousand years ago.
Long ere the days Of spectaclcs ana lenses,
When ,aon were left TO their unaided senses
Two young, shortsighted fellows, Chang an(
Ching,
eyer their chopsiicks idly chattering,,
Fell to lisputing which could see the best.
AT last they agreed to put it to the test.
Said Chang: "A marble tablet, so hear,
Is placed upon the Bohec temple near,
With an inscription on 1t. Let US 60
And read it (snce you boast your optics so,
Standing together at a certain place
IN front, where VIC the letters just may trace
Then he who quickcs. reads the inscription
there &#A
Agreed" said Chang; land let US try II soon.
suppose we say Tomorrow afternoon"
Nay, not so soon," said Chang; I'm bound 4
go
Tomorrow days ride from Ho.hang-ho.
And shant be ready TIL the following day.
At ten a. IN. on Thursday, let US say"
80 twas arranged. But Ching was wide awake
Time by the f0rclock he resolved to take;
And to the temple went at once, and read
Upon the tablet, ITO the illustrious dead
The chief OF Mandarins, the great Goh-BdnS.'
Scarce had he gone, when stcalthily came Chang
Spicd in a corcr what Ching failed TO sec
The words, This tablet is erected here
by those to whom the great Ooh, Bang was dear
so, on the appointed day-both innocent
AS babes, of course--thcsc honest fellows went
And took their distant station. And Ching said
II can read plainly, To the illustrious dead,
The chief of Mandarins the great Cob. Bang"
And is that all that you can spell? said Chang.
81 see what you have read, but Furthermore,
In smaller letters, toward the temple door,
Quite plain, This tablet is erected here
By those to whom the great q oh Bang was dear.
MY sharp-eyed friend, there are no such words"
said Ching.
They're there" sad Chang, "if see anything,
As clear as daylight" Patent eyes, indeed,
loa hayem cried Ching g" DO you think | can
not reads
Not at this distance, as can" Chang said,
q II what you say you saw Is all you read"
In fine they quagreled, and their wrath incrcas

Til Chang said Let us leave II to the priest.
10! here he CONES to meet us at is WELL"
said honest G. ing; "no falseho01 he will tell"
Tie good man heard their artess story through,
Sud said, 81 think dear sirs, there must be few
BEST with such wDndrons eyes as those you
wear.
There's no such tablet or inscription there.
There was one, il is true; twas moved away
And placed within the temple yesterday"

lHL MALLSToRM AS TT Is.--Nearly mid
way In London strait, huge naked rock
which might fairly be called an island, lifts
Itself above the waters, breastinG the conflict

Between this rock ana the cape on Muskong

inanions have clothed with many tcrrors. It's
geoprahical position is such as 10 expose il
To fierce tidal currents, and, when these are
assisted by high westerly winds, they are, no
doubt terrific. The bottom of the strait Is
slrewn vii. immense boulders, which are so
arranged as TO give the current spiral mo.
ton, directed towards the isolated rock from
the northern side, which is much increased
in times OF high tides and storms, when ii
whirls quite around the island rock. Then il
is that IL becomes difficult, for boats and yes

rocks against which the hayward currents
would dash them While there arc at times

doubt in the course OF time the action of the
water has tended to level doGn the bed of
rocks, some oi which, we NAV presume, show.

have beer the maclslorm much more terrific
than II Is now, and better justified the ancient

FINANCIAL.

The year 1884 was regarded as one Of the
most memorable 10 the financial annals of our
city, more from the effect of the New York panic
and the general disturbance of trade it caused,
than FROM disasters originating in our own COM
merclal community. And yet only year has
elapsed, and many of its prominent features
have pa ssed away from recollection. Hence, as
specially observed in our general and preliminary
remarks, it has been necessary, in order to ex-
lain some Of the salient features Of trade and
notably. the remarkable abundance of idle money
caused by the sbrnkage in the volume Of bust
ness from general depression, to recall the past
and bring prominently before the reader the
causes and consequences of last years revulsion.
The movement in our financial circles has IN
doubtedly been materially checked by the pro-
verbal timidity of capital being exaggerated
into distrust of al securities, but the compare
tive stagnalion from which bankers, or dealers
in money, have suffered, az well as merchants or
dealers in commodities, must be mainly attributed
to general shrinkage of the commercial move.
ment The Immediate effects of the panics were
manifest in numerous failures in financial and
commercial centers, disturbance Of the monetary
embarrassment of banks and con-
sequent check to the general movement. The
Interior effects, caused by an enforced economy
among consumers, q curtailment of the consump-
tive dem and for commodities, and . consequent
falling off in the wholesale trade OF the CONNER
cial cities.
Money is the motive power of trade, but there
