THE SONG OF THE CAMP

.Nt" 1O!k tribune, -
Mr.. Tay.Or's la'eS poeticsl work hss bee
IN grave and high strain, and readers VII
are familiar win II may rot readily recal
the Tyre ieTvOr of his early writings. At III
pGbIlc banquet gwen To Mr.. Taylor al d
monicos shortly before his departure, tx
Vi mister P.errepont embodied in speec
a feiici'ous reference TO his first Acquaintance
with Mr. Tayioris poetry lie hal fourd
fray Bew-psi'-r copy OF Mr.. Iayior's .'Son
OF the Camp which he asked Mr. Bryant I
reproduce. TINS poem Is ss follows:
"Give US a song :" the soldiers cried,
The outer trenches guarding,
When the heated guns OF the camps allied
Grew weary of bpmbaid!rs.
The dark Redan in silent scun,
lay grim and threatening, under;
And the tawDy mound OF The MaiakUh
No longer be!cned it, thunder.
There was pause. A gusrdsm n said:
-. { storm The forts 10 morrow;
Sing while We may, another day
VIII bring enough OF sOrToE."
They lay along the ba;t-ry,s side,
Below the smoking cannon;
Brave hearts from Severn ami from Clyde,
And from the banks OF shannon
They sang Of love, and not of fame,
Forgot WIS Bit -in's glory;
Each art recall eli IA q fi-T.D ut name.
But all SANK Annie Levine"
NoiHe after voice caught up the song,
Until its tender passion
Rgse Ike an anthem, rich and strong,
Their Da:ile-eve confession.
Dear girl, her name he dare not speak,
Bat. a. The song grew louder,
something upon the soldiers cheek
Washed of tie stains Of powder.
Eeyond the darkening ocean burned
The bloody sunset, e,nbeIs,
While the Crimean valleys learned
How English love remembers
And once again n fire of hell
Rained on the Russian quarters.
Will scream Of snot. and burst of shell,
And b-llowing of the mortars,
And Irish Nora's eyes are dim
FOR singer, dumb au cory;
And English Mary mourns for him
Who sang of Annie Lawrie."
sleep soldiers still in honored rest
Your truth and valor wearing;
The brasest are the tenderest,-
The loving are the dariux.

TNECYPiIERS.

Mr.. Hewitt is credited with saying tina,
the Democrats are bothered about touching
the cyphers, because the New York men,
bers are reluctant to move in the matter
on account Of their personal relations to
Tilden, while the Democrats from other
sections declare that the subject properly
belongs to New York, and should not be
meddled with by members outside of that
State. New York Tribune says:
That is curious condition of at.
fairs, bat the Democrats from all sec
tions tail TO give the real reason for theii
chyness, which is a lively apprehension that
ha the truth about the cypher oopsrceny
has not been 10 q.

SPECIE COMING IN.

A New York correspondent calls atten-
ton to the fact, gathered from the statistics
for nine monthe past, that the United States
has kept nearly all her gold product al
home, and has imported little silver. Ii
also appears that the export of trade dollars
during nine months Of 1878 hiss been only
sl,6S3, OOo, against SS,255,OoO last year
This indicates that the foreign markets now
open to our coin are already glutted. In
nine months last year We sent abroad S.
100000 more trade dollars than were re-
turned to us. But We took back during
nine months this year 100000 more Of
them than We exported in the same time.

HAS PROVED HIMSELF ACCEPTABLE.



Last week We visited Leavenworth and
spent several days there. 1t is the liveliest
dead town We ever saw. The big snow
storm caused everybody who could rig up
a sleigh TO turn out, and the streets were
merry with the musical jingle Of sleigh
bells. The only wonder to Us was that no
accident occurred in the whirl and dash Of
the many sleighs and vehicles which lined
Delaware street and Broadway, Of Lesven-
worth. Delaware is a street 10 be proud
OF, and the display Of holiday goods in the
stores and windows was grand. Goods Of
all kinds are cheap in Leavenworth, and
We believe our Doniphan county mer-
chants can duplicate their eastern bills
and eastern prices in that city The only
drawback to the prosperity OF Leaven-
worth is her bonded county and city Rail
road Indebtedness, which she is trying 10
settle by compromise, but the Shyiock at
torneys for the railroads, Clough & Wheat,
insist on their pound of flesh, are fight
ing all attempts of The people 10 free them
selves from this load of debt they are una
bic TO pay the interest on, even, and never
can pay the principal. The people Of
Leaven worth should force settlement of
this bond question at once. They cannot
longer afford to suffer from the blightIng
effects of this milestone Of debt which is
dragging them from prosperity to degrada-
ton ard poverty. Leavenworth should be
the leading city of the Missouri Valley to-
day. Her bonded debt settled, che will go
on TO greatness and prosperity.
1t is but justice to the Leavenworth
TINES to say that it has stood up Tor the
people all the time on the bond question.
The TINES office is one of the institutions
of Levenworth. Ii is the most complete
printing Office in the west. The basement,
which is 40 leet deep, contains the four
large power presses, run by a powerful
steam engine, and we'll arranged and COM
modious job Office. Everything about the
press room is neat and clean. On the
msin floor ia the post Office, with its score
of female employees, and on the second
floor ia the sanctum, reporters room, busi-
ness Office and news room. All OF which
are well arranged and kept scrupulously
clean 1t will pay any one visiting Leayen-
worth to 60 through the TINES establish

AND THE BELL RUSG

just Is loudly. Mr.. Smith is not believer
in ghost. or spiritualism, and to prove to
the frightened ladies in the family that the
bell was certainly rung by human az ency,
he sprinkled -four and ashes along the sp-
proach to the front door, confident that he
would thus be able to show the footsteps of
the disturber OF their peace. But the bell
was rurg, and no footsteps were discovered.
Then Mr.. Smith sought the aid of Brook
kn's infallible police, and Capt. McLaugh-
lin, OF the Fourth Precinct. was persuaded
to look into the matter. The Captain and
and Detective Price went to the house last
Monday evening, determined to capture the
ghost, md treat it to a nights lodging in a
police cell. They had been at the house

lSnlldueipnia Times, Il.
Mr.. Hewitt succeeded yesterday in get
ing into the Congressional R>aord the fact to
which the 7imss already has called atten-
ton, that Secretary Sherman has kept on
deposit for six months past 20 the First Ma
tional Bank, of New York, balance aver
aging over thirty millions of dollars
This is shown BY The Secretary's reply to
a resolution of inquiry from the House, as
also that the balance in this favored bank
has been a. high as forty-five millions at
one time. To secure this enormous sum
less than three millions in United States
bonds are pledged with the Treasurer, and
this with bank of half million capital
The bank, of course, pays nothing to the
United States for this deposit, but huns
dred thousand dellars month would be a
moderate estimate of the profits derived
from its Use. 1t is not wonderful that Con-
gress should wish to inquire into this bust
ness. The whole amount OF government
funds deposited with the United States
Bank, the withdrawal of which, by Gener-
al Jackon, turned the whole country upside
down, was but ten million dollars Secre-
tary sherman has kept six times that
amount with his special loan depositor-
les" the greater part with a single bank.

THE DUTY OF CO,GRIsS.

The first and most important duty Of
Congress, upon re assembling after the hol-
iday recess, will be to take whatever steps
may be necessary to compel the clearing
house banks of New York to respect the
laws Of the United States. Their present
attitude is one Of open defiance, and back
ed as they are, by the Secretary of the
Treasury, there is danger that without ad-
ditional legislation they will be able to
successfully nullify the Law Of Congress re-
monetizing the silver dollar. We are fully
aware of the fact that the national banks
of the United States WELD dangerously
great influence, and their present attitude
brings US face to face with the question
whether the banks or the people shall rule.
II permitted to succeed in their present at
tempt to nullify the Law Of Congress, We
shall be compelled 10 recognize the fact
tn at the will Of the banks is paramount to
the will of the people.
