darling little birdie
Glanced awhile to rest.
PilloWed its little tiny head
Upon its mothers breast
The brightest little sunbeam
Came our home to bless,
Fairer than the flowers
In our earthly nest.
Brides days Of life were brief;
Other yellow leaves appear
Tremulous of my coming grief,
Emblem of my Ethel dear.
My Ethel love, emblem fair
Angels hover very near;
They crowned with flowers my precious

And took her to her heavenly home.
White and tiny is her coffin,
On the marble slab she lay,
Bud thou vert of choicest primrose.
Like the lily passed away.
They have flown and they are flying
Brides from our nest,
And parental bosoms heaying
Ger deserted nests.

THE ooAPTRoLLER's REPORT.
 The Hon. Chauncey Howard, Comptroller of Public Accounts, gives a detailed account of the receipts and expenditures during the past fiscal year. He says:
 "A very large increase will be found in the matter of judicial expenses. The amount has been steadily growing for many years, and we need not search long for adequate causes. Protracted trials, possibly unavoidable in the administration of justice, necessarily involve great expenditures and we cannot fail to see an increasing tendency in that direction. In the session of 1879, an act was passed relative to the payment of wit ness fees, giving them ten cents per mile for travel to the place of trial, each day of such trial. It is obvious to notice that in some recent trials this must become an i'm portant item, possibly requiring examination. In 1878 an ample report was made by Q con- mission, to the Legislature, upon the subject of State expenditures. In that treatise, many causes were sought for, and found, to which the increase of expenses could be traced; and changes were recommended, by which hun dreds of thousands could be annually saved to the treasury-of whick one hundred thousand would be in an item of judicial expenses But these suggestions were not ratified by the Legislature, nor by the people; and expensive and exhaustive trials go on as before.
 Under the head of contingent expenses'' will be noticed an increase. This is some times regarded as convenient phrase, under which unauthorized expenditures can creep into an account. In reality it is as strictly guarded as any account in the whole series. In every instance the items are regulated by law, or ordered by express appropriations by the Legislature; as, especially, the commis sion on the care of the insane, and the settle ment of the interstate boundary and similar appropriations.
 I estimate the expense of the National Guard at $92, 1000, sum nearly $6O, ,OOO less than last year. The reason of this expected decrease will be fully explained in the re- erals.

LOBses-A Fable.

A correspondent of the Providence journal tells this fable, the moral of which the reader may discover himself:
 An ancient sage once met young man who was weeping bitterly and bewaiiing the loss of his property. "Be comforted, my son." said the sage, land know that aff1ictions are never sent without their proper alleviations, for doth not the plaintain leaf grow wherever the bould- CT barketh the shins. Now, how much real capital did you put into the busincss?" asked the sage. 'T put in the entire proceeds of the note I got discounted" sobbsd the youth. ;" "And you have never paid this note?" said the sage. sHow could l." said the young man, 'when have just been restrained by order of court from paying anything, and to be re- strained from doing what had no intention of doing has added to my great depression of spirits. " "How much have you drawn out of your business for your private expenses 2'' said the sage. "Why," said the young man, 'I thought it would not be modest in one of my years to spend any more than the amount of my discount, ss did not like to run into debt" ''You did well" !" said the sage, flor modesty adorneth the brows of youth; yea, 1t is the most becoming tattoo to the counte- nance of adolescence; but be of good cheer, my son, have heard enough to feel that whoever has lost property, you are not the unhappy sufferer. Fortunate young man, '' he exclaimed, ''you can now carry some of your early dues to refresh your old age, and you will yet learn that failures pay us better than successes, and that apparent losses are often positive gains"

While one of the New York boats was on her trip from here to New York, the mate re- ported to the captain that the boat was on fire in the hold. The captain went and very dis tinctly saw the fire. It consisted of a lighted tallow candle surrounded by three darkies who were playing cards.

The hoseman was ordered not to put the stream on them until the air was well out of the house, and to be sure to keep moving it around in circular manner SO as to make thorough work. The card players tried to find the door, but there was such a force and swashing of the water from the hose that they could not make it out. When thsy did come out they strongly resembled three drowned neOroea.
