Tie crowded Streets.
WILLIAM CULLEN BRYANT.


Lei me move slowly through the street,
Filled with an ever shifting train,
Amid the sounds OF steps that beat
The marmuring v llks like autumn rain.
How fast the littiIg figures comel
The mild the ii srce, the stony face
Some bright WITH thoughtess smiles, an'
some
Where secret tears have left their trace.
They pass to toll, t. strife to rest
To balls in which the feast is spread
To chambers where the funeral guest
In silence sits beside the bed.
And some to happy Lomes repair,
Where children pressing cheek To cheek,
With mute earesses shall deelare
The tenderness they cannot speak,
Aud some who walk in calmness here,
Shall shudder as they reach the d aor
Where one who made their dwelling dear,
Its flower, its light, lie seen no more.
Youth, with pale cheek and tender frame,
And dreams Of greatness in thine eye,
Cost thou TO build an early name,
Or early in the task to die?
Keen son OF trade, with eager brow,
Who Is now fiuttering in thy snare,
Thy golden fortunes, tower they now.
Or melt the glittering spires in air
Who of this crowd tonight shall tread
The dance till daylight CLEANS again:
Who sorrow DER the untimely dead?
Who writhe in throes Of mortal pain?
Some, famine struck, shall think how long
The cold dark hour, how slow the light;
And some who tlaunt amid the throng,
Shall hide in dens OF shame tonight.
Each where his task or pleasure call
They pass and heed each other not;
There is one who heeds who holds them al
In His large love aud boundless thought.
These struggling tides of life, that seem
In wayward aimless course to tend,
Are eddies of the mighty stream
That rolls to its appointed end.

There was on the table of the boudoi
an album, richly bound and closed by
silver clasp. 1t wasa COLLECTION of photo
graphs, all representing the Empress il
various actress cosluT es. She figures
there as soubrette, as Rosina, as a page
as first young lady, as an opera dancer
in tights snd gauze. The last photo
graph represents her az Agnes, wearing a
long white dress, and with eyes cast down.
Below this photograph the Emperor had
written "Eugenie en- Agnes HIP accom-

Our Washington Letter.

WASHINGTON, d. c., May 9TH, 1873.
When Speaker Randall took the floor, last
week, and charged extravaganza upon the Re-
publican party, he did what he ought to have
done long ago. Few could make the charge as
forcibly us MIR. Randall. His long experience
in the House, his quickness in debate, almost
made me wish he had remained on the floor
Mr.. Atkins, Mr.. Eden, Gen. Banning, Gen. Bragg,
MIR. Glover, Mr.. Springer and other efficient
Republicans might say-indeed have said on par
ticular subjects-all that Mr.. Randall said. But
they did not say it so well. 1t was something
wonderful to see all the prominent Republicans
take their turn in meeting the plain charge of
Randall that, SO far as Congress was concerned,
Republicanism meant extravaganza and De-
mocracy economy. Garfield, Foster, Hale
Conger and the rest defended their party, but the
facts, plainly given by the Speaker, were against
them. When we look at the situation as it is
we cannot help agreeing that, as the Speaker
put it, the country must this fall decide, in the
Congressional elections, whether it will have De-
mocracy and economy or Republcanism ana ex-
travagance.
The Treasury Department, it appears, has been
engaged in making up tables of amounts ofmon-
ey claimed by Southern men, with q view of
frightening people into voting the Republican
ticket this fall more legitimate business for
the Secretary and his subordinates would be to
pass upon the numberless Northern and South
crn claims already before them Another good
thing if the Secretary does not care either to pay
or reject these claims, would be to urge the crea-
ton of Commission or Court with authority
to pass upon them. In this connection l wish
to renew a suggestion, first made in this CORES.

and soldiers OF the late war an opportunity to
