he exhibited in his show window as "Gen-
Washington's faithful watch.' Along came a
troop Of excursionists the other day, and one
OF tfcm saw the watch, was overcome BY rush
OF sentiment, and he went in and paid good
round price for the tieker. It kept frst-Tate
time while the buyer walked four or tive blocks,
and during the next two hours it would run Tor
one minute and stop for two. BE found his way
back to the shop, handed the watch over the
counter, and said:
"Here, give me half what paid you"
sis there anything the matter with the watchs"
asked the seller. Don't you feel 4hle to carry
watch which the great George Washington
once carricd!'

Thy spirit binds me with spell
And holds me mute and still,
While Memory's fingers DER my heart
Sound every chord at will:
Ay! chords that long hare silent lain
Now breathe OF naught but thee,
Nor stif1e with their low refraln
My spirits agony.
1wonder If thy soul tonight
Can reach me; II the air
OF this lone, dreary, weeping ese
Or il around me softly bend
Bright forms from that blest cline
Where Death may never come 10 part,
Nor Love be chilled BY Timer
oh, come! If from thy glorious home
Thy spirit maj, depart,
And softly lay thy chilling hand
Upon my burning heart.
Thine was the earliest touch that thrilled
And woke its melody.
And. ecboing through the lapse OF yea1s,
1t murmu1s still of thee
oftheei They laid thee low to rest
Within the waiting tomb;
They gave thee, in thy youths glad prime,
TO cold decay and gloom;
And still see thee as, beneath
Thy clustering hair, thy brow
Bcanled like wave-rclccted star
When willows round it bow
, Thy spirit binds me with spell,
feet that thou art near,
And Faith 50 Oils my rapt heart nows
Thy tones almost hear:
And Peace with snowy wings, like doves,
Above me seems to brood,
And bliss that's very near divine
Now dlln my solitude.

FIRE DEPARTMENT.
The Fire Department is under the control aud
supervision Of an officer called the Chief Of the
Fire Department. He is appointed BY the
Mayor, and confirmed by the Council, and holds
his office for four years. He has general charge.
of the property Of the Department, aud at al
fires has the same police powers as the Chief Of
Police.
One feature Of the new charter, which, its ad-
vocates claim, should commend it to the appro-
baton Of the taxpayers, is the list Of officers
and an acquaintance with the army Of city Of
ticeholders which at present feed at the public
crib will show that no less than twenty-five Of
rials lose their Leads Il the charter be adopted;
and with them thir Offices vanish forever. The
SALARIES whirh will be saved by this amount to
the respectable yearly sum Of Sl20, 900 In adj
dition to this direct saving, all fees and per
ouisites arc abolished in all the offices under
the charter.
The debate on the charter is now filling sew
cral columns Of each Of the newspapers here
every day, aud IS participated in By the best
lawyers and pub6cits Of St. Louis. Tie n1isfor-
tune OF allowing SO short time for the prepara-
tion Of the charter is growing more and more
apparent as the discussion proceeds. Even its
friends admit that it is faulty, but SO far as I
can Judge the measure is generally supported
bv What arc called the better classes, and re-
ctiycs its stoutest opposition from the office
holders and the hummer element, us it is styled
in Chicago This remark, however, may be
modified somewhat, Us considerable number
OF good lawyers are Of the opinion that the
charter is in opposition to the State Constitu-
ton, while other persons are utterly opposed to
an extension of tile city limits. The Germans are
said to be almost solid for the charter, and
they arc even stronger here than in Chicago.
Their support Of the charter, as well as that
Of many other persons, is due more to their hos
tillty to tho county officials (who seem to be
fashioned after the Cook County modeD than to
any Intelligent appreciation Of the points OF the
instrument itself. believe that it is generally
conceded that tie Charter will be adopted.
ANOTHER POINT
in reference to taxation should be referred to
here. Tue new Constitution Of Missouri adopt-
cd about year gyo, limits the power Of cities to
create indebtedness, IS does that Of Illinois; and
it goes further ii limiting the rate Of ta1ation
to | per cent The revenue from u tax Of l
per cent on the taxable property in St. Louis, is
81, ga III, and tae city must be run this sum
plus the revenue from licenses, fines, etc The
valuation of property in the city is SIG, IA 1870;
in the proposed addition, 81, 7,031 400; making
the revenue, according to the graduated scale
Of the new chatter, 81, ,750: 500. The valuation
Ut property in tle proposed new county Is $21, :
