See the crimson clouds Of evening
Lattice-bars across the blue
Where the moon in pallid beauty,
Like an angel gazes through!
Over all the winding river,


By the fading sunset kist,
Slowly rises up the yapor,


In a cloud Of ghostly mist.
While the Eve is slowly turning
Its last grains Of golden sand,
What holy quiet hoyers


Over all the drowsy land!
There is now the spell of silence
Of silence calm and deep
Over all the placid water


Where the blue mist seems asleep.
And the vessels slowly gliding
Down the river to the bay,
Show on sheets Of spreading canvass
Tints which change from red to grey.
All quiet, save the murmur
OF the tide upon the bar;
See each little breaker playing
With the image Of star!
And it's thus that human creatures
Bowed with age, or fresh in youth,
Give back brokenly the image
Of each grand, celestial truth.
Now the brooding silence decpens,
And the scene is one of rest
While the wrecked day drifts down grandly
To be stranded in the West
On yon rugged coast of cloud-land
High above the village spire
On its mighty purple hcadlands
And its crags all tipped with fire.

daughter are away. In the world below, they
were united in faith, and love, and peace, and
ioy. In the morning of the resurrection they
assembled together. Before the throne they bow
together in united alteration. On the banks Of
the River Of Life they walk hand in hand, and
as family have commenced a career Of glory
which shall be everlasting There is hereafter
to be no separation in that family. No one is
to lie down on a bed Of pain. Noone to wan
der into temptation. No one to sink into the

We do not need any currency tlnkerlng-any
arbitrary withdrawal of Greenbacks or OF
National Bank notes. Make the National
Ranks redeem their notes at par at some
central point; redeem the Greenbacks IN gold
where any one chooses to present them, and
tbe Currency may be safely left to regulate
itself If the National Banks shall prove un-
sound, the people viii refuse their notes and
force them into liquidation; If Greenbacks are
not as good as Gold, they will follow the Bank
notes. But this will not be, simply because our
existinp Currency needs but Specie Payment
ond Central Redemption to make it the best in
tbe world. We for example, are doing bus-
ness of s., 900 900 per annum, which could hardly
be done at all on a purely Specie Currency
Both Greenbacks and National Bank notes,
beipg redeemable at par, are better to US than
Gold: we should probably never present a
dollar of either for redemption And what Is
true of our business is true of most other
peoples.


Even if some competent Court should decide
that-the War and its necessities being ended
Legal Tender is no longer legal, it would
be of no practical consequence; for the Green
backs would thenceforth circulate on their
merits, not by virtue of Government compul-
sion. In Montana, Nevada, Idaho, and Colo
rado, they would often, if not always, COM
mand premium over Gold, because equally
valuable and far more convenient for remit
tance. Whether there is too much, too little,
or Just enough Currency in the country, Ke-
sumption would speedily determine; and if for
eigners (as is absurdly imagned) should see INT
to send our bonds home and sell them at a
sacrifice for Gold (as they can do now or at
any time) why so much the better. Better
pinch ourselves little to pay them now at n
heavy discount than be obliged to pay them
ultimately in full.

The report of DR.. Dalton, Sanitary Supern-
tendcnt, which accompanies the Report of the
Board of Health, contains many hints for the
future as well as facts of the past. AS soon
after the passage of the act authorizing the
appointment of the Board Of Health as its or
ganization could be effected, preparation was
made for detailed inspection Of the entire
District as the first defense against the ex-
pected pestilence. New-York was divided into
seven inspection districts, and Brooklyn into
five. Scmi-weekly reports were required upon
all Duisances found to exist. A book was also
placed in each Station-lIouse for entrance, on
the part of citizens Of known or alleged nuisan-
ces.


The condition Of the city may be Judged from
the fact that complaints were soon filed at the
rate of fifteen hundred per week. The original
number of inspecting officers was found totally
inadequate and thirty-seyen additional clerks
were needed TO properly inspect the streets and
buildings. The most prolific cause of disease
was found in the condition Of the tenement
houses, whose want of proper conyenences,
ventilation, drainage, and sunlight were all
active allies of pestilental epidemic.
The investigations of the inspectors led to the
conclusion that reformation, to be permanent
must be made by forcing the responsibility
upon the owners of the property, from whom
it is now too frequently shifted by the practice
of sub-letting. REQUIRE landlords 70 mike mike
weekly examination of their houses and then
hold them accountable for any condition of such
houses which is detrimental to health, and the
dangers of tenement living would be very
greatly reduced

sioners, after showing the downtown markets
To be detrimental to health, and deserving OF
abatement as public nuisances, assert that were
the said property charged with city taxes and
interest, it would not only fail to pay its own
way under the present management, but would
run in debt nearly Sl5OOOO per year
In another column will be found synop-
sis of a bill introduced into the Legisa-
ture providing for an entire change IN the
management of our public markets. 1t is pro-
posed To vest this management in Board OF
five Commissioners, to he appointed by the
Governor and confirmed by the Senate, which
Board shall have power 10 sell, remove or es-
tablish any market according to its convictions
of the public necessities. The bill enacts that
the present markets shall not be sold or abol-
ished until others have been provided in
suitable localities. For carrying out the
decisions of the Board, the Mayor, Aldermen
and Counclmen are To create and issue public
fund of stock for this specific purpose, to an
amount not exceeding Sl,O0O0O0, and bearing
interest not exceeding seven per cent per an
mum.


Our markets could hardly be worse managed
than they are now with such commission
they might be much better. We now squeeze
our way through struggling masses of basket
laden humanity, and dizzily emerge from en-
tangling knots of teams TO find ourselves IN
wretched market-sheds which would be dis
graceful in a tenth-ate town. If we must
have public markets, give us wide, high, clean
market-halls, built of iron and glass, located in
points accessible by wide streets, and kept
under strict discipline by this or any other
Board of Control. That will be n great inn
provemcnt on matters as now managed, but the
greatest improvement of all would be that
the city should go out of the market business
