11 .0g t 1 non In the country wh. are
longing leave their galet homes for the
excitement of i
city life, and who imagine
.thatthey mould be perfectly happy in the
freethim of a boarding house, away from
the restraints of their relatives, will do
well to read the following graphic ,sketch
which ha,ti l een handed to us, entitled
"My Firs! Night in a Boarding Reuse:"
I, had just come from home- 2 not a
house where I ate and slept—but a home
in the.fullest meaning of the good old
English word, and the city was new to
me. But business called me away, and to
the city I came. We must eat and sleep,
and I must find a place for doing so. One
good woman's house was full; another
landlady—her tongue sharper, if possible,
than her_noie, "wan't any strang
ers '! and so the aggravation grew, until
I f4uxill,alOrge-lxdroling house, occupied
mostly .by. young men,, on the noisiest
street in town. The buxom keeper of
the•house told me that one hundred clerks
lived there, and would find it very pleas
ant ' "Llyed," she' said: That set me
to thinking. Living is`, from the same
root as leying. Love is necessaryoto real
life. - Whom do the
,young men Jove—
anybody?! 'Perhaps only a thing, a habit,
an amusement, a saloon, or some worse
place. Do they live here? I asked
myself.:
But I must eat, so I will stay. Supper
is ready. A battery 9f two hundred crit
ical eyes'is not very inviting to a lonely
man;.faid -Surely so, if not one glance is a
kindly one. But supperis over, and now
where shall I go? The large sitting-room
is filled ' with smokers and the vile old
pipes drive me away. Up, up winding
stairs I go, and the only vacant room is
on - the fourth floor, with no stovi3 and no
tire. , is too cold to stay here, and I
will go 'to the office of a friend, who
comes down town evenings to escape the
miseries of his boarding place. I knock
at his door. 'No reply. But there is the
light of a fire 'in theme Can't I get in?
No: 'No key, no sign'of life, except the
flickering of• the fire-light, and the gnaw
ing of the mouse in the partition, trying
to get Ah, if I was a, mouse I could
get in', and I wouldn't wait so long in
vain for some one to come. But he
doesn't come, and I pace up and down
the hall;Waiting, listening, but no foot
fallnor • snatch of song meets my eager
ear. I will go over to the Young Men's'
Library Rooms. "Only for the benefit
of members" is the burden of the pla
cards. But I will look here formy friend.
He isn't in the magazine-room; nor in the
news-room, nor in any of the alcoves.
Brit I musn't sit down; for the clerk is
.loekig silt' me closely.- 8o down the
stairs Igo and play the sentinel 'again
before the,office door. But why be sen
tinel? There no one to watch. The
room is empty and dark,,... T hut for the
mockery of that fitful flickering of a dy
ing_fire.
Well, I will go to the Christian Asso
ciation Reading-rooms. Up LaSalle
street, and a woman is running along
alone, who disappears in the dark alley.
The poliieman follows her with his eye
till she rii. , out _ of, sight, Alone, poor
thing? So am I alone, and these dim
himps „make this Merchants' In
surance- building, and • this Chamber
of Commerce, look like so many grim
jails, for the full moon is just rising, to
cast dark, heavy shadows in the heaven
- high walled streets. Up the long stairs,
and the Library-rooms are dark, and
dusty, and cold. The street lamps
throw in a light, and show them 'open
and deserted. A young man in the hall
says the library is moved, and won't be
open for two weeks. "It io in Alcove
alley." he says, "and why so called I
can't conceive, for it is the confounded
dirtiest place the Lord ever made," and
the coarse laugh that -follows his savage
-retort makes the two,girls that have just
come up and greeted him seem loath
sbme sand repulsive. Ahi there's no
home here. Back again through the de.
serted streets; : but my friend is not In his
Office. He won't come to-night, and to
my cheerless room I must go. in spite of
all my . dread. •
- The street lights reveal no lamp in the
room, but here in the corner is an old
brass candlestick with a tallow dip, and
in the generous tray a handful of matches.
The shades of a house-light obsolete
years and years ago, are called upon to
furnish light, and by the dim shining—
not of a fiery eye of flame—but of a pale,
sickly, tallowy glimmering, I can scan
this sleeping room. The wall paper is
black with smoke and age, the ceiling
once whitewashed, has long ago forgot
ten "the day with the white stone;" the
carpet so faded and thin, so dirty and
worn, is shrinking from 'sight; the bed
stead, a relic of the secondhand auction
store; the paint on the sash was long
ago scrubbed away ; the bed is musty and
lumpy, and .even the looking-glass is
cross-eyed, and distorts more and more
my homesick face ; and the candle-stick
—that .was the straw that broke Wel
comers back ! That was too much to
stand! That unmanned me, and I took
out the little Testament and read a little
of the Sermon oil the Mount, and cried
—cried, because I'was. lost in a great city,
where I couldtilt find a single heart that
seemed,to care for the sorrow of loneli
ness. •
And the bed was worse 'than sleeping
in the woods in the army; th 4 clothing so
old, that it had grown thin but not light,
and the coverlids fell like sheets of lead
about me, While the mattress was damp
_ and -claim. : It is enough ,! No sleep
that night. The Court House bell found
me awake to hear the striking.of the fun
eral of the long-night hours, arid the roar
and jingle of the horse cars kept me lie-,
tening for a reprieve until midntgh‘while
the rattling of the baggage wagons over
-the cobble-stones, and'the (*am tniMling
of their drivers, sounded like ininiinan
torture in the early dawn.
0h . lip of luxury,! ;you-': not pour
out a Young Man's Home, with warmed
and lighted rooms, separate ones for new
corners, with library and music and bath,
and a good genial motherly soul to wel
conte in strange faces that miss a home in
this great city ?
Goaway from home one night to a 'public
boarding house, and then see how wide
hell yawns at every warm and well-light
ed saloon, and dance-house, and gamb
ling hall, and see how wise the: devil Is,
and how thoughtful some Christians might
be.—.ohicogo Eve. .Post.

A dismal eiblif hid Settled do*ii on' - the
Street since %holiest had•abated:. A haze
of calm butperfect bliss has hung over
,the stone edifices of the nest. . of bankers
and money ,brokert for some time past,
and yesterday the,placid surface of secu
rity had a splash, and the lake of placid
ity was convulsed. The smash was
among the - houses doing a foreign ex
change and commission business, and
particularly, among those who dabble in
petroleum. The house of Schepeler &
Co. whose place of business is at No. 52
Ex4inge Place, came down with heavy
crash. The most incredible rumors
were afloat. Some said that , the house
had gone under for $10,000,000. Some
laid the failure at $1,C00,000; others $5OO,
000, and various other sums were named
from $50,000 to 5,000,000. But to all it
was certain that this formerly respectable
and always well-known firm had gone to
the dogs, to speak financially. The Mer
chants' News-room, at No. 52 Pine street,
where the greasy petroleum men and na
val stores people do most congregate, was
a scene of boiling excitement from noon
yesterday until dark. Petroleum men
came in with their hats jammed away
back on their heads, andafter looking a
moment at the black-board-with its chalk
hieroglyphics, would rush out to convey,
in acute sentences, the news that some
body in Antwerp, or, Hamburg, r Firank
fort, or Havre, would have to 'burst or
take in sail. From Broad street to Wil
liam, in Exchange Place, Gierewas a per
fect jam of people, all men doing business
On the street, Who were, in addition to the
Davis & Aiken embezzlement, all
very much bothered ; nay, many
were in great agony about the
failure of tne house Of Schepeler. It
was expected that half a dozen other well
known firms, who had large business
transactions with Schepeler & Co., would
also be necessitated to burst or smash up;
butat three o'clock yestarday the most of
the suspected houses had satisfied all
claims against them, and those who did
not appear with clean Piper were of
small account,. and it was therefore im
probable that their influence could be felt
among houses doing a heavy business. It
was believed at one time that they were
short on their gold contracts for as large
a sum as eight millions of dollars. The
cause of the failure of Schepeler & Co. is
said to arise from the fact that some time
since they made contracts with different
parties in the street to furnish gold to the
amount of ten millions of dollars at a cer
tain price, and that since these contracts
were made gold advanced so rapidly (as
much as 8 per cent.) that the firm found
it impossible to keep their contracts, and
consequently the failure. The firm did a
general commission business, and also
speculated more heavily than was gen
eally known In. gold. 'lt was also believ
ed that this firm were short on Govern
ment bonds, and that they were involved
to large sums in bills of exchange on for
eign houses. A number of these bills
have been sold here on the ; market, and
they will Luive to be returned, and will
have to be covered by specie shipments
or by other bills or. first-class houses.
The gold market was very much affected
by the failure, and at* first the falluresent
crowds to buy in the gold market,• but af
ter the alarm had decreased a little, mat
ters assumed a steadier aspect, and the
brokers and buyers began to breathe more
freely, and gold fell slightly. It will be
impossible for a few days to get a correct
statement of the liabilities of Schepeler &
Co., but they are credited as high as $lO,.
000,000 and as low as $1,000,000. At all
events, "Wall street had a great cause yes
terday for gossip, and the clubs last night
had a sensation of the first water to talk
about.—.Y. Y. World 18th.
The Boston Post says: The Bob-olink
was due in this latitude on Tuesday, the
11th. He did not make his appearance
until Sunday—tipsy with his rollicking
music, that made one think the air was a
vast bird cage. Wednesday's weather
must have been the cause of his delay.
He had an eye out to what was coming.
and refused to come hlinselt. As his wife
is a notoriously dilatory body on her
journey, it was no great "put-out" to
him, for he could have a few days longer
to perfect his killing little suit of motley.
110 might have thought the season gone
by, had he landed in the meadows on
Wednesday, and gone off to other lati
tudes. But on Sunday he burst forth
with the'whole volume 'tif his indescriba
ble song• rattling, Crazy, tinkling, shiver
ing, liquid•melodies, that on a sudden set
the brain of the listner to spinning with
a Confusion of delightful sounds and fresh
born sympathies. The bob-o'link is here.
The air resounds with his resistless song.
Men become boys on hearing that riotous
vocalism from their little friend of other
days. And the charmingly gay • rascal
himself; seeing the tumult of emotions he
has excited, chatters his musical recitative
with a new glee,-and breaks away with a
fillip of melodyending with—" Good bye
—l'm off."
Negro testimony is right in principle.
It is demanded by common sense. No

SPECIAL NOTICES.
rigr SCHENCK'S
1: 1PUILItIONIC
SYRUP. SEAW ER TONIC AND
MANDRAKE PfLLS will cure Consumption,
Liver Complaint and Dyspepsia; if taken accord
ing to directions. They are all three to be taken
at the sometime. They cleanse the stomach, re
lax toe livor and put itto work; then the appetite
becomes good; the food digesta and makes good
blood; the, patient begins to grow in flesh; the
diseased matter ripens into the lungs, and the
patient ontgrd,ws tue disease and gets well. This
is the only way to cure consumption. •
To these three medicines Dr. J. if. Schenck, of
Philadelphia, 'owes his unrivaled success in the
treatment of pulmonary Consumption. The Poi
motile Syrup ripens the morbid matter in the
nines. nature, throws It off by an easy expectora
tion, for when the phlegm or matter Is ripe a
slight cough Will throw ft off, and the paUenthas
rest and the lungs begin to heal.
To do- tiffs, the seaweed Tonic and 'Mandrake
Pills must be freely used to cleanse the stomach
and liver, so that the Pulmordc Syrup and the
food will make good blood.
Schenck's Mandrake Pills act upon the liver,
removing all obstructions. relax the ducts of the
gall bladder, the bile starts freely, and the liver
Is soon relieved; the stools will show Cat the
Pills can do; nothing has ever been Inv nted ex
cept calomel (a deadly po'son wedett Is v dan
gerous to use un-ess with great care,) that will
unlock the gall bladder and start the secretions
of the liver tine Schenck's Mandrake Plus.
' Liver Coniptaint is one of tl most prominent
causes of Consumption.
Schenca's Seaweed lonic is a gentle stimulant
and alterativg. and the alkali In the Seaweed,
watch this preparation Is made ot, assists the
stomach to torow out the gastric Juice to dissolve
the food with the Pulmon lc Syrup, silo it is made
into good b 0011 without fermentation or souring
In the stomach.
Ihe great reason why physicians do not cure
Consumption is, they try c ou gh , too much: they
give medlcineto stop the to stop chills, to
stop night sweats, hectic fever., and by so doing
they d- range the whole digestive powers. lock.
lug up the secretons, and eventually the patient
sinks and dies.
Dr. Schenck; in his treatment, does not try to
stop a cough, eight sweats, chills or fever. Re
move the cause, and they will all stop of their
own accord. No one can be cured of Consent
Liverlion, Lir Complaint. Dycpepsia. •Catarr
Canker, Ulcerated Throat, unless tne liver an on
stomacn are made healthy.
If a persons has consumption, of course the
lungs in someway are diseased, either tuberelee,
abcesses, bronchial irritation, pleura adhesion,
or the lungs are a mass of inflammation and fag-.
decay lug. Inianch cases what must be dout? .It
is not only the lungs mat are wasting, but It is
the whole body. The stomach and liver have lost
their power to make blood out of fo d. Now the
only cnance Is to take Dr. Sebenck's three medi
cines, which bring up a tons to the stomach,
the patient will begin to want food . linen' digest
easily and make good blood: then the patient he.
gins so gain Melesti. ands. soon as the body be.
gins to grow, the lungs commence to heal up,
and the patient gets 0, any and well. This Is tee
only way to mire Consumption. .
When therett no lung disease and only Liver
Complaint and Dysimusla, Schenek's Seawee
Tonic and Maindr.ke Pills are sufficient, w 'Mout
the Pulmonici Syrup. Take the Mandrake Pills
freely In a.l trillious complaints, as they are per
fectly h armlets.
