BY W. CTILI;EN BRYANT.
There comes from yonder height,
A soft,, repining sound,
h Where forest leaves are 'bright,
Andfall like flakes of light
To the ground.
It is the autumn breeze,
That lightly floating on,
Juit shim the 'weedy leas,
• Just stirs" the glowing trees, -
And is gone.
He moans by sedgy brook,
And visits with a sigh
The last pale flowers that look
From out ,their sunny nook,
At the sky:
O'er shouting childrentlies
That light 06tober wind,
And kissing ckeeks and eye;
He leaves their merry cries
• Far behind.
And wanders on to make-
That soft uneasy sound
By distant nook and - lake, - - -
Where distant fountains break
From the ground.
•
No bower where, maidens dwell
ICan win a moment's stay;
- No fair mitrodden dell;
He sweeps the upland swell,
And away.
Ram- j•
Mourn?st !thou thy homeless state?
•
Go soft repining wind!
That early seek'st and late _
The rest it is thy fate
Not to find!
Not on the mountain's breast,
Not on the ocean's shore,
In all the - East and West—
The wind that stops to rest--
Is no more.
By. valleys, woods and springs,
No wonder thou should'st grieve;
For all the glokions things
Thou touchest with thy wings
' And must leave.
The Death of Dr. Dtiraehetr-Address by
Bishop Stevens.
,:. At St. Stephen's Eplsc4al Church, on
Tenth street, above Chestnut, yesterday
morning, an impressive scene was wit
nessed by the large number of persons
present. As a token of respect to the late
beloved rector, the Rev. Henry W. Duca
ebet, who died suddenly on Wednesday
Might last, the chancel, altar, reading desk,
pulpit and other portions of the sacred edi
nee were draped in mourning. After the
regular form of morning prayer had been
concluded, the beautiful and appropriate
143 d hymn was sung by the choir. The Rt.
Rev. Wm. Bacon Stevens, the Bishop of the
Diocese, then proceeded, to deliver an elo
quent and touching address upon the be
reavement which the Church and the Zzfinis
try had met with.
Bishop Stevens said that three times
during the present year had this building
been clothed in habiliments of woe—first,
for the President, who had been suddenly
called from us ; then when the beloved
Bishop of the Diocese passed away ; and
now in respect for the esteemed rector,
whose, sudden death had caused such an
electric thrill to pervade the community
when it heard the sad news. This was not
the plaCe . nor was, he prepared, to give a
funeral discourse or memorial sermon on
his beloved brother. All knew what a life
of usefulness his had been, and how greatly
he had improved our Church. The speaker
hoped the good results of his teachings
would stretch far into the future. Forty-two
years ago Dr. Ducachet was ordained to his
sacred office, but *before that he had been
aPphysician of large practice and influence
in New York, with-prospects as flatter
ing as ' any :young man could possibly
desire; but in the providence of God
he was called upon to minister to a,
higher duty—that of attending to the
sick in soul=and giving up the profession
which held forth such liberal promises and
high hopes, he -dedicated himself to the
work of God. His services were immedi
ately sought after, and he obtained exalted
positions. Thirty-two_ years ago, on the
eleventh of the present month, having been
selected to succeed the noble Montgomery,.
he was installed by Bishop,White and. As-.
sistant Bishop Onderdonk as rector of this
church. Tris was a long pastorate in this
day of change, of 'turmoil, and of restless
ness; and it was a noble "thing for one who
came in, in the very morning of his youth,
to live to see an entire generation pass into
the grave and another come upinto their
place, for when he was called away he was
ministering to the Second generation. For
many years he was a leading member of
the Standing Committee of this Diocese, in
- which position his' superior learning gave
him great influence; in the conventions he
was always prominent, and often, by his
genial spirit s hdaled differences which had
arisen; and in the Advancement Society he
•always took great interest.
The Bishop then referred to the Orphan
Asylum connected with. St. Stephen's,
which was commenced by Dr. Thicachet,
and prospered under his supervision; and
also to the fact that only a few weeks ago
the friend whose loss he now so deeply
mourned had been the spokesman on an
agreeable occasion when a number of the
Episcopal * clergy had gathered to *express
their affection for him (the Bishop).
He referred to a portion of the morning's
service, which he, deemed peculiarly applica
ble to this day of mourning, and which
seemed to shine out just -as we sometimes
See a sinle bright star when all the rEvt of
the sky is overhung with clouds; arta con
chided by calling the attention of his hearers
:to the. importance of preparing for that
world wherein there is no sorrow and :no
tears and by invoking them to let this
death be a warning to all, that they should
live in'Chriat so that they may die in the
Lord. •
The Austrian Empire.
The Austrian Empire is now passing
through a - crisis which will test to the ut
most the capacity of its statesmen and the
patriotism of its people. The -meeting of
the Diets'of the German Provinces of the
monarchy has been marked by a movement
openly, hostile to the recent policy of the
Emperor, and particularly to the attempt
which the government is making to ctrne
to a direct understanding with Ilungary.
• Those differcnt Assemblies are acting not
only with unanimity, but in concert, and
with a decision and secrecy which, as a po
litical symptom, are most remarkable. Lmst
Thtusday the .Provincial Diets of Upper
Austria, Lower' Austria, Styria, Carinthia,
Vorarlberg anti --- Salsburg met, and in all
one and the same n. The
was submitted to
the Deputies. The authors df this motion
take their stand on the imperial diploma of
Oct. 20, 1860, which theyc observe was pro
iitolggted.as.a fundamental law,beyond the
power of the > Emperor to change without
co-operation of the Provincial Diets or the
Belebsrath. That fundamental law they
maintain is still in force, no one having the
right to suspend it; but it has been violate.
by the issue of the'patent, of Sept. 20, 1865,
and thus.the nation finds itself deprived of
'rights which it joyfully . took possession of,.
and which it has exercised for five years.
,By this patent the rights of the„Provincial
TdOts are imperiled, and, the work of-legis-
lations, is taken from the representatives of
the people,and assumed by' absolute poWer.

_Letter from the Director of the Mint to
the Secretary of the Treasury !
The Director'of the 'United States Mint at
Philadelphia has sent to the Secretary Hof
the Treasury several specimens of coins,
with a new motto thereon. Accompanying
the coins the Director sends the following
letter
"PETT , AnPLPHLk, December 15th, 1865.
: By the fifth section , of the act o4Con
gress,, approved March 3, 1865, entitled an
act to authorize the coinage of three-cent
pieces,und for other purposes, it is enacted
• that in addition to devices andlegendsrupon
gold, siver, and other coins of the Umted
States, it shall be,lawful for the Director of
the Mint, with the approval of the Sedre- ,
tory of the Treasury, to cause the motto", 'ln-
God we trust,' to be placed upon such,coin'
hereafter to be issued as shall admit of such
legend thereon. In pursuance of this au
thority I directed the engraver of the mint
to prepare dies with this motto, for such
gold Wand silver coin as would admit the'
addition. The execution of this order
required time, ' care and skill,
and, now . I- forward to you , specimens
in copper of double-eagle, eagle
and half eagle gold coins, and dollar, half
dollar and quarter dollar of silver coins
with the motto, "In f3od we trust," on the
reverse of each coin,. for your approval or,
otherwise, as ,recured by law. The other
gold and silver coins are too small to receive
the motto, so as to be legible. The,- *zting
-legend and devices not a. .. it of a
greater prominence being given .. the
motto on the coins, but the addition, as now
presented one sperimens,udd much to the
appearance of our coinage. Should you ap
prove ofthe speahnens submitted, I will ' at
once cause to be struck off, with the worth
of the gold aratsilver coins, the denomina
tions representhd by the specimens. I pro
pose to direct the engraver to revise and re
model dies for the gold and silver coins, so
that, by retaining the legal devices and le
gends, he may, by the change of size, posi
tion, &c ., give to the coins with the motto a
more artistic and elegant appearance. I
think it can be done. If succesuful, I will
submit them to you for your judgment and
approval. For this purpose no additional
legislation is required.,
Yours, respectfully,
J.k.IMES POLLOCK, Director.
Circular from the Postmaster General.
The Postmaster General has just issued
the following important circular to railroad
companies :
,t
POST OFFIC DEPARTMENT, WASHING
TON, Novemb r 30, 1305.—T0 Railroad
Managers: I is known to you that mail
service on the railroads generally during
last winter was so irregularly performed as
to seriously delay the transmission of the
mails. Various causes were assigned for
the failures; but the principal one was the
great length of trains that made it impossi
ble for them to make their schedule time.
No satisfactory reason for this was made to
this Department or the public.
The compensation for carrying the mails
is remunerative to the railroad companies,
and their obligation is clearly to convey
them according to their most expeditious
schedules, whateVer may be the delay to
their paSsenger or freight traffic.'
The interest of the public in the regular
and speedy transmission of the mail is
superior to the private interests of railroad
companies, and delaying the mails by over
burdened trains is virtually a violation of
implied contracts of the companies with this
Department/ The remedy is with the com
panies. Lessen the number of cars on the
mail- trains, especially on' those carrying
through mails, to the maximum that will
riot necessarily prevent. the schedule time
being regularly made, and the difficulty
will be removed. The request now made
for you to do so is in no sense unreasonable,
but demands alike for the interests of the
Government and the public, while your
faithful compliance will only be a proper
observance of your contract with the de
partment. I trust your company will
heartily co-operate with the department in
its earnest desire to furnish the mails regu
larly and expeditiously to the public.
Respectfully, W. DENNISON,
- Postmaster General.
Confession of a Suicide
An old man, who committed suicide by
strangulation in Paris; on the 27th ult., left
the following document among his papers.
headed—" The Mysteries of my Life," with
an introduction to this effect;
I belong to a very good family; I was
well brought up. Fatally for myself, I
adopted as my device the Italian maxim,
Chi vapiano va sano. I know now that, on
the contrary, no marl should leave for to
morrow what he can do to-day. For my
part, I believe that before doing anything
it was necessary to. deliberate long and
maturely, and the consequence was that
all I took part in turned out unsucces§frd.
By this mania of postponement and this
dilatormlss of execution I injured my for
tune, I forfeited an important situation, and
I missed ten marriages. I have broken
with all my friends, because I never could
return a visit in proper time; pay back an
act of politeness, nor keep an appointment;
I was always an hour too late. Ihad excel
lent servants, but I never was *ell served I
because I was never ready to be served.
thought myself extremely prudent, and I
always found myself in a false or a diffi
cult position. After long and profound
reflection, I am now convinced that my
constant habit of putting off everything
was but a pretext; that my real character
was one of selfishness and sloth; and that I
sought to hide, or to cover,. that double vice
with a fictitious virtue. I was 'deterred by
the fear of fatigue, by my disgust to bodily
and mental exertions, by the indulgence
of continuous and lethargic repose. Such is
the true cause of tbe vexations which I have
constantly experienced. I believe the judg
ment I now pass upon myself to be correct.
At my age I am on the brink of the grave.
Thethought of self murder has come upon
me, and as for once in my life I mean - to
take an • energetic resolution, iiind . not to
postpone it, -I hang myself.
From New Orleans.
NEW ORLEANS, Dec. 12.—Gen. Winfield
Scott arrived here to-day from New York,
on the steamer McClellan. •
The steamer De Soto, hence for Pasca

A citizen of New Orleans who returned
from Matamoras a few days since) and who
was intimate there with French affairs,

France and the United States, to commence

already their plan of campaign mapped out,.
Which anticipates a sudden crossing, of the
