Nowhere among the peasants of any
nation that we haye seen in person or in

brilliancy of costume than at a meeting
of Mimic country girls in holiday attire.
The flashing coors of the very full,
manipulated stuff petticoats, the i'm
macuate white sleeves and dark bodice,
with its embroidered border, tle gay
kerchiefs over the dark locks and about
the neck, and the profusion of tiligree
jewelry, little gold being hammered
out so as to 90 great way, and expand
ing itself into cobwebs of delicate ira
Gerry, watllo-iron earrings as large as
the palm of Il mans hand, and several

covered with 4 cuirass of chains, hearts,

all his glory would have found it hard
to rival.

The Garden.

-f'. - -
Fsin would my muse the fowery treasure sing,
And humble glories Of the youthful spring;
When opening roses breathing sweets diffnse
And soft Carnations shower their balmy dews;
Where lilies smile IN virgin robes of white,
The thin uhdress Of superficial light,
And varied tulips show SO dazzling gay,
Biushing In bright diyersities of day.
Each painted aowerlet in the lake below
Surveys its beauties, whence its beauties grow
And pale Narclssus. On the bank, in vain
TRANSFORMED Sgazes On himself again.
Here aged tree, cathedral walks compose,
And mountiiie hill IN venerable rows;
The green infants in their beds are laid,
The garden q Abpe, and its expected shade. =
Here orange trees with blooms and pendants
shine -.rM
And vernal honors to their autumn pine;
Exceed their promise in their ripen'd store,
Yet in the rising blossetns promise more.
There in bright drops the crystal fountains play
By laurels shielded IRON the piercing day;
Where Daphne, nova tree, at once matd,
Still from Apollo vindicates her shade,
stIll turns her beaasie from the invading beam,
Nor seeks IN vain for succOrto hestream;
The stream at once preserves her virgin leaves,
At once q shelter from her boughs receives.
Where summers beauty midst of winter stays,
And winters GOODNESS spite of summers rays.

The Refunding Bill-In What Respects
Amended by the Senate Finance Com

The Refunding Bnl-In What Respects
Amended by the Senate Finance Com
ard, from The Commrtrer Un r,".",.,
reported TO the Senate yesterday the
House bill to refund the public debt
and gave notice that he would soon ask
the Senate TO consider it az soon as II
could he printed with the amendments
proposed by the committee, AS amend
ed il provides for the issue o! bonds to
an amount not exceeding S400, 900, 600,
bearing three-and.a.h half per cent. in.
terest, redeemable after five years and
payable in twenty years and
the issue of not exceeding $500, 900 900
in Treasury notes, also bearing three
and.a-hali per cent interest, redeemable
after one year and payable in ten years.
The fifth section OF the House bill is
stricken out entirely.
There is a wide difference OF opinion
ms to whether the House will concur IN
the Senate amendments to the Refund
ing bill. Mr.. Carlisle, who contributed
largely to the passage OF the measure,
saws that the House will not agree to
the Senate amendments. He believes
that the House will consent that the
time for the bonds to run be extended
t. twenty years, but he thinks it will
not agree to raise the rate of interest to
three and half per cent. In his opin-
ion the House will refuse TO concur in
the abolition of the fifth section, which
compels National banks to accept the
new bonds only as security for circuia'
ton and deposits. All the Greenback-
ers and q great number OF the Demo
Gratis will oppose the removal OF this
section. Messrs. Carlisle, Tucker and
Fry will probably DO the House con-
ierees on the measure.

shots into the womsns body, the third
one striking her in the left breast, kill
