The .amount of Gold and Silver in the
New York Banks, is more than triple the
average antecedent to the crisis of 1SH7.
The largo amounts now boing distributed
for government purposes find their" way
back in less than a fortnight. Even du
ring the past week SI, 000, 000 have been
added to the Eum named in the last state
ment. This Eteady maintenance of a spe
cie resorvo of near 40,000,000, altbo' in
ordinary limes perhaps indicative of stag
nation in trade, is now a sure relianeo for
the worst emergencies that may occur.
A singular superstition prevails among
the common people in Austria and Swit
zerland in regard to tho Free Masons.
They believe that the portraits of all tho
members are hung in the lodge-room; and
that when a member betrays the secret of
the order, a pistol is fired at his portrait,
causing his instant death wherever be
Bay chance to be at the moment.

THE WAR.
BY Tim DARD OF THE EASTON HALL OF FASHION.
One topic now engrosses
The thoughts of old and'young,
In valley, plain, o'er hilltop,
The notes of war arc rung.
Tho pruning book's forsaken
For the musket, spear, and knife;
Peace-loving men arc hasting
To engage in deadly strife.
The times, when our proud nation,
Stood a beacon for the world
When the glorious "Stripes and Stars,"
Were but on gala days, unfurled.
When our noble eagle's pinions,
Were not fettered in their llirht,
When without contending evil,
The "might would yield to right,"
Are times among the bygones;
Yet the cloud that hovers oe'r
Our country now, and threatens
Ruin and death to pour,
Is destined soon to banish,
Northmen can never bend
Law and Union, arc the blessings
.For which they now contend.
A gallant hand of brothers,
They have pledged themselves -to stand
Defenders of the freedom,
Of this once favored land.
They have left the cheerful fireside
For a soldier's life of care ;
And manfully, the hardships
Of a soldier's life they bear.
To relieve from some discomforts,
Which to their lot must fall,
Purchase for them all good clothing,
At Pyle's Easton Fashion Hall.
A splendid assortment of clothing, for sale
cheap, at Pyle's Hall of Fashion, opposite
the old Laston Bank.
Cleansing Gun Barrels.
We see in tho Scientific American and
other papers reecipes for cleansing gun
barrel. J hey aro all open to the objec
tion that thoj iuvclve the uc of water,
thus requiring time to dry the barrels and
incurring the danger of rust. We give a
method used by scientific sportsmen in
England with fiucccs: Get a quantity
of quicksilver which can be kept in a
strong pill bos, Bnd when the barrel is
foul place tho thumb on the nipple, pour
the quickiler at tbe mouth, and then
run it up and down for a few minutes.
Turn it back into tho bos and the barrel
will be perfectly clean. Tho mercury
forms an amalgam with tho -load and. re
moves it. The lead can be taken from
the mercury by straining.
