Stock Exchange.

| llN NllhlN NltW.
For the information OF our readers
who may not understand all references
TO Wall street and the stock exchange,
we give the objects, regulations and IN
outline Of this organization; from
which may he drawn correct IDEAS Of
the vastness of their operations and
the dangerous power which lies in their
hands for use against the public inter
est whenever their selfish ends make it
desirable TO use that power
The New York Stock Exchange is
an incorporated body of brokers whose
business it is to buy and sell rcprescn-
tatiye value, namely, gold, silver,
bonds, silver certificates, the stocks Of
all corporations, etc, etc. It's govern
ment is vested in Il council consisting
of the president, treasurer and forty
members, called the governing com
mittee,' who make rules for the gov
ernment Of the exchange, settle all dis
putes, and decide what securities shall
be dealt in under its sanction. Ten
members of the governing committee
are elected each year, together with
president, Nc., chairman and Vice-chair-
man, with standing committees. The
two last-namcd officers preside at the
daily meeting of the board. The pres
ent number of members is eleven hum
drcd, the largest number permitted by
the bylaws; therefore, membership is
only to be obtained by the purchase of
the seats of deceased or retiring MEM
bers. The applicant will then be al
mitted upon payment of an initiation
fee of one thousand dollars.
Seats have been sold within the last
year for from $500 TO $2,4OO. No
one not u member of the exchange can
transact business within its walls.
The floor of the exchange is open for
business from ten o'clock in the morn
ing to three in the afternoon. The
members are forbidden TO have deal
ings in stocks or bonds at any other
hours of the day in the building.
There are two regular calls of stocks
daily, three of state and railroad bonds,
and three of United States bonds.
Transactions are not confined to the
regular calls, but are continually taking
place on the floor of the Exchange be-
tween the hours named. The Gold and
Stock Telegraph Company have opera
tors stationed in the various rooms
where the dealings take place. The
official quotations printed by the EX-
change are those made at regular calls.
Quotations are made at so much per
cent, on the basis of u par value of
one hundred dollars per share of stock,
which are quoted at so much per share
without reference to their par value.
For example, the par value of a share
in any stock may be $50, but the quo
tatiOn, if the stock were worth just
par in the market, would be 100 per
cent. or if the quotation is 10, it
means $40 for 800 worth of the par
value, which, in the case ofstock worth
$50 per share, would be the price of
two shares; while, if the stock were
in 800 shares, il would be the value
of one.
10 "bear" the market is to operate
for u decline 10 "bull' the market is
TO operate for rise. To buy "long'
is 10 buy and hold for a rise. To buy
"short" is to buy on the rise for imme'
ldiate use.

SINGING.

Singing from the mountain spring
AS IL gurgles over;
Through the heather and the ling,
Through the grass and clover;
Singing, laughing all the day;
Laughing, singing all the way.
Singing through the lcafy dclls,
Where the shadows linger,
And the wild flowers ring their bells
70 the merry singer;
llippling, laughing all the while;
Singing, rippling all a-smilc.
Singing round the messy stone,
Meath the hazel bushes;
Singing when its all alone,
Stealing through the ruslcS,
Happy as the day is long,
Never speaking but in song.
, Singing at the mornings dawn,
When the day is breaking;
Singing when the lights withdrawn,
And the stars are waking;
Watching, singing through the night
Singing, waiting for the light.
Singing in the April days,
When the clouds are weeping:
singing through the summer haze,
When the men are reaplng;
Singing through the autumn's chill,
Through the winter singing still.
SO, my sou, take up the song,
Yield not 10 rcpining;
Clouds can never linger long
See their silver lining!
Sing on, sing on, all the way;
Sing on till the break of day!

The state board Of charities atiNew-
port, Il. l., have recently had II heart
rcndng case brought to their notice,
which goes TO show remarkable love
and devotion Of II mother to her imbc-
cife child. The wUman's name is lIar-
rington, and she died about three weeks
ago in the town of Portsmouth, near
the coal mines Soon after her death
her husband made known the fact to
the oycrseer of the poor of the town
that hcarceratcd in the attic of his
house was his son, William Harrington,
nineteen years of age, who was Il mani
nc, and required care and attention
which he could not give. The overseer
of the poor investigated the affair and
found matters as represented by the
father. He learned that for period
of fifteen years the poor lad had been
confined in the attic of the house by
his mother, who during all these years
was the only living person whom her
son had seen. She was accustomed to
visit his lonely room, which was dark
ened, and feed him with her own hand.
The attention she bestowed on him was
tho result of her love aud devotion to
her unfortunate offspring. She had
iealously guarded her secret from the
neighbors, fearing that steps would be
taken to tear her boy from her When
she died the father tried to follow her
example, but was not equal to the task,
Last week young Harrington was
taken from the attic. He was found
to be about half clad and to he literal
lytovered with long growth of hair.
lie was taken to Providence by the
overseer of the poor and two selcctmen
of the town of Portsmouth that morn
ing by the Fall river steamer.

a Norwegian Village.

Vosscvangen is u little farming ham
let on the west shore of a beautiful
lake. The region is one of the best
agricultural districts in Western
Norway; the "Voss' farmers are held
to be fortunate and well to do, and
their butter and cheese always bring
high prices in market.
As we drove into the village we met
the peasants going home from church
the women in short green or black
gowns, with gay jackets and white
handkerclicfs made into llying-but-
trcss sort of head-dress on their heads ;
the men with knee-brccCheS, short
vests, and jackets thick trimmed with
silver buttons. Every man bowed, and
every woman cOurtesied rs we passed.
To pass any human being on the high
way without sign or token of greeting
would he considered the height of i'll
manners; any child seen to do ii would
be sharply reproved. Probably few
things would astonish the rural Nor
wegan more than to be told that
among the highly civilized it is con-
sidered Il mark of good breeding, if you
chance to meet Il fellOw-man on the
highway, to go by him with no more
recognition of his presence than you
would give to a tree or stone wall.
1t is an odd thing that man should
be keeping the Vossevangen hotel to-
day who served in Americas civil
war, was for two years in one of the
New York regiments, and saw Il good
deal of active service. He was called
back to Norway by the death of his
father, which made it necessary for
him to take charge of the family estate
in Vossevangen. He has married a
Vossevangen woman and is likely to
end his days there, but he bankers for
Chicago and always will. He keeps a
fairly good hotel, on the shores of the
lake, with q row of willow trees in
front; dwarf apple trees, gooseberry
and currant bushes, and thiCkets of
rhubarb in his front yard; roses, too,
besides larkspur and phloX, but the
rhubarb has the place of honor. The
dining.room and the parlor were like
those of Eide, adorned with ivies and
lowering plants, oleanders in the
windows, and potted carnations on the
table. In one corner of the dining
room was a large round table covered
with old silver for sale; tankards,
chains, belts, buttons, coins, rings, buck
les, brooches, ornaments of all kinds
hundreds of dollars worth of things.
There they lay all day, open TO all who
come; and they had done this, the
landlady said, for years, and not a
single article had been stolen; from
which it is plain that not only is the
Norwegian honest himself, there must
be a contagion in his honesty, which
spreads it to all travellers in his coun-
trySA

ONLY GOING TO THE GATE.

Like bell of blossom ringing,
Clear and childish, shrill and sweet,
Floating to the pOrch'S shadow,
With the faintCst fall of feet
Comes the answer softly backward,

WhilCthc baby queen OutrunS her,

Always to depart reluctant,

Waiting love Of older date,
And the maiden whispers softly,

Over the waves we have not been,
How they stand before, behind us

Spring gates some, that Shut forever;
Cloud gates some, that melt away.
