He buried his face in the child's curls,
and when he raised his head, though he
tried to make the tones cheerful, his voice
was choked and hoarse: Fasten Man,
my's dress, piggywiggy. And now,
Nanny, If you know what is good for
you, you will make Tip bring in that VA
lise and you and Nellie and Grace will
open it; and then if you don't like what
is in it, why, you can just send it back
where it came from. That's all papa has
to say about it; so here's the key"
Tip brought in the valise, and Nanny
and the children eagerly poured forth its
contents, Nanny receiving her gorgeous
turbans and "store shoes" with the same
innocent delight that the children derived
from their bonbons and babies, the old
woman and her nurselings throwing aside
with equal facility all thought Of their re-
cent trouble.
Mr.. Larrantree's subsequent interview

queathing her blessing to Nanny.

NATURE AND LOVE.
SPRING.

SPRING.
The tender spring comes tremblingly;
Quiv'ring the blossoms softly break;
Each zephyr breathing gently by,
New forms, new beauties seem to wake.
So trembling wakes my love for thee,
SO letters burst, springs fair and free.
O first sweet love! 0 maiden mine
o strange new love! 9 birth divine!
SUMMER.
Full summer now-the genial hours
Lend radiant noon to glowing night.
Full summer-see the cleaning flowers
Baskng in feryid life and light
And love too has its perfect noon,
It's summer sun, its summer moon;
In thy deep, radiant eyes, my Queen,
My triumph lies-there love is seen.
AUTUMN.
Adown the fields the golden grain
Hangs heavy on the burdened stems,
Through shimmering leaves the fruits again
Clean ruddy ripe, rich autumn's gems.
Hearts harvest too gather in,
Love, sweet to cherish, sweet to win;
For future days o'ertiowing store,
Love, could l ever love thee more?
WINTER.
Where are the flowers? Where the leaves ?
Where the sweet zephyrs' gentle breath
Where mellowed fruits and golden sheayes
Dead, dead; all icy bound in death!
Is love too deadg Hence, needless pain
Love only sleeps to wake again.
Love dead? An, no, not so with love!
Love only dies to live above.

Yesterday G. Nj. Clay addressed large
assemblage at this place. He said that
while In foreign country. tryingto serve
his Government. separated from the in
nuence of partisan strife and conflict, he
bad observed the course of political events
here as they shaped themselves under the
management of the party in power; had
watched the steps and progress OF so-called
reconstruction, ani seen its entire policy

and made the pretense for repeated
wrongs. Injuries and manipulations. re-
sulting in strife and financial ruin In the
Southern states and In the oppression OF
their people. At the close of the war he
favored general amnesty and com lete re-
construction. Each State should have
been restored to its equal rights and privi-
leges. Slavery being abolished, there was
no motive left 10 induce further struggle
and fruitless loss After the conflict and
the acceptance Of its results the South had
no longer any cause Of complaint. and had
made none except when the party in pow
er had placed the heel of oppression on
them 10 further its purposes. England
had conquered ireland. and held IL as a
conquered province. Now the gallant
sons of Ireland are seen i'm other lands and
nations; in war as marshals and soldiers
in their armies; in pesce as statesmen and
useful ciuzens. Poland was subiugated
Hungary was conquered. We remember
that from the former country Pulaski and

Bringing a Great Man to Terms.

The present Lord Mayor of London Is
an unusually stupid man, and his name il
Stone. II Is the custom for every Lord
Mayor TO give dinner 10 the clerks and
other officials connected with the Mansion
House, a goodly number, who are general
ly educated men belonging to the best
mercantile families. The present Lord
Mayor gave the dinner "a usual, but when
the eating was over and the speaking was
about to begin, his Lordship got up from
the table and marched out of the room.
He evidently did not regard bis official
subordinates as sufficiently grand to ASSOC
ciafe intimately with himself OF course
the gentlemen present were disiDclined to
be snubbed In this fashion, and they were
all about TO leave the room. Before doing
40 they all agreed TO resign their Offices
under the Lord Mayor. They appointed a
deputation to proceed TO his Lordship's
private apartment and inform him Of their
resolution. He was found quietly enjoy
ing himself In an easy chair, which could
not have resenbled that royal chair In the
East which suddenly becomes hard as
stone TO the monarch who sits I'm ii when
ever any thing is going wrong in his king
dom. In this case the monarch was Stone,
and the cushion was velvet. But his Lord
ship was a good deal moved at the pros
pect OF having every Office vacant next
morning, and 50 he fastened 10 the dining
room and concluded his repast with hum

[From the New York SUM-


The prosecutions instituted against the
st. Louis Whisky Ring will not result in
the conviction OF any Of the principal cnl-
prits. No doubt Secretary Bristow is In
earnest In his endeavors tobrng to justice
the men who have been defrauding the
Government, but he will not be per-
mitted to fasten the guilt upon the chief
offenders, for this would render doubly
sure the destruction of the present Admin
istration.
II is matter of notoricty that the great
est frauds in st. Louis were committed I'M
der Instructions from Washington, and that
the members of the Whisky Ring contribu-
ted millions Of dollars ostensibly to carry
elections for the Republican party, though
no one can tell how large proportion Of
these contributions stuck In the hands o.!
those intrusted with the work of disburs-
ing. In return for these contributions he
disiillers were permitted to dcfraud the
revenue, and officers Of the Government
assisted in the work. The doors once
opened to such depredations upon tine
Treasury, those engaged In the business
continued II upon their own account
until they were brought to halt by the
active measures instituted by Mr.. Bris-
tow.
But the ofFice-holders implicated In these
disclosures have been shrewd enough to
