I am thoroly happy so hap py, indeed, tbat tbe privabbens and troubles tbat I her bin tbro are fadin out or my memory entirely. I her paid Bascoin's account wicb bez bin runnin for so many years, and her tU receet in my safe my SAfE I say. Proudly I wrote these words, ily eafe. Who, thirty dayg ago, wood her supposed that I should ever say mt safe! Then I her two soots ur clo3e good ones wich is ono and a half more than I her hed sence 1 was I'ostma3ter under John son Ileven rest his sole. J her to shirts for the first time in my life, and I am wearin stockins! I her but one pare ez yet, but one can't rise to the summut u hooman graadjer at wun bound. I shel buy another parp in a week, or two. I think every ban!, president ought either to her two pare ar stockings or return to the stern vircboos ur tbe Republic in its Letter days, and go barefoot. Goin barefoot or e via a change is necessary to the keepin of a bank president's office in a sweet smell in condition. Cut this is a digreshua. Suffice to say, I am clothed. I pade three dol lars and a half a pare for then stock-ins- they is cotton wich ii three dolUrs and a quarter more than they wuz worth in old money; but wat difference does it make? That three dollars and half was made by four pulls on Simpson's printin press, and when money can be made in that way wat difference does it make wat J pay for cotton box? At the beginning w ishood JO, 20, 93, and 5Q-cat currency, hut we her quit that. Trices bare gone up aot under the general prosperity, tha, there aint anything in the Corners that sells for less than a dollar per one, and the frckshnel carrency wai desired to be yooselis. Besides it costs jest ez much to print a ten-cent note az it does a dollar, and we bleeve in economizio. Simpson the priatcr, is matin a lit tle trcuble At the bfginnla yoos- ea to pay tun lor p-intm our bill by jedt sixain enuff ur em ea they come ijora ths press to make his amount, but lately be has refoosed to take oar money, and insists on grceabax.

It is singler tbat sich u en throw impediments a. tlie war of progress - The obstacles in tbe way ur the back that her thus fr developed themselves. Lav hia happily and eas ily removed- Bascom demanded wheat uv us to ship to Looi&ville to get more whisky, and we bed to let him her it, and take pay in our own money. Andez he demanded that we take our money jest the same as greenbax, tbat bein tbe standard in Looisville, we met a heavy loss. The account fctantis as follows; 1.0CO Lashels av7beul cot as, tn ouxown, moncj. kit 50 per bushel ,ki,W0 Sold It to Bascom at Louisville greening prices, wich if 11 per bushel, taken pay i& the same money w. paid tor it I,0u0 Loss (which Isessi'y figured) fAtos We had one more trouble which we got on easier with. Pugsby, the shoemaker, who took our money, was sun out uv leatber.and when he tent to Looisville for more the merchant there, ez in the case uv Rascom, re : foozed to take our currency. Tugsby knowd or Rascom's experience, and be came up smilin to her us sell him wheat enutf at greenbax prices to renoo his stock. "Wat kin we do?" I demanded ia dire distress, for really I didn't see why Pugsby shoodent her wheat to renoo his stock ez well ez Iasoo&i, ceptin the whisky is wore "necessary to the Corners than leather. "Do?" said Isjaker Gavitt, with a expresshun or tkora on his classic feechers? Ilez Pug9by a safe? No. Well, where does he keep the $11,000 ur our money? In Lis desk? Yes. And that is wooden. And his bildin is wood. Veiy good. Tell Pugsby to come to mot row, and we will give him wheat at a dollar a bushel for all ar our money be has got. We ber twenty-four hoar?, and banks ez well aa nashens kin be saved in twenty-four hours." And Issaker put some matches in his rest pocket about $3 worth. Matches he: gone up to $4 50 a box our money That niie Pugsby's shop burnt up, and the Gre conimeaced jist under his de.sk. The next niornin that nnforch init man came to us and insisted on hcven the wheat on tbe score or money be bad ur ours. "Bring as tho money," said Issa ker, beauiia sweetly onto, him "and we'll give you all the wheat you want" "Rut yoo know tbat I bed your money, and tbat it was burnt up last nite." "I persoom yoo hed some ar our money, but I don't know it," replied Issaker. "So well-regulated bank kin lire ir they a hood take erery man's word, ezyoa wont ns to.

It s heroic I admit and good enufffora temprarr expedient, but it won't do for a reglar eve-tern. Ef our money atimoolates a man's biz nis to the point of Lia bildut a new house we her benefitted him, and the commoonity as well. But ef to avoid tLe inconvenience ur redeemin that money we her to burn the house wat good her we accomplished? None. We her tot to find some other war. I don't see anr other way, but co doubt it will seiect its elf to me in time. It is astonishin how the Corners is boom in, new ralerodes are beia bilt, twelve new turnpikes, one hundred aa tweaty-cight new cellers for houses is beia dug, and last week the cornerstuns for eight factrys wua (aid witn appropit ceremonies. Ibegradea is bein dun oa the ralerodes and turnpikes, aod that part or tbe work will be poshed to aa early compleshun, for the labrers furnish their own shoyela aod picks, and take our money for wages. The labrers buy their livia of the farmers along the line with money, and then tiie iarmera come to Corners with it, and cheer their soles at Bascon's. So far all is serene and sweet So far the money sheds blessing, ej a nun, qoe3 perfum. But at this pint, comes worry. Wat is Bascom to do with it? The Louisville mer chant refuses to tech it for likker and we can't afford to giv? him wheat at Looisville pritaa agin. We wood build a distillery, but alas! we can't pay for the nails, the glass, and the stillia apparatus ia our mcaey, ao we am t trot any other. But thanks to an overrulin Providence, Bascom hez enuff litter to last two weeks, and sutLia will turn up afore that ii gone. alyoos her gone up so that it takes a vast volume nr currency to transact tbe biznis ur the Corners. Simpson's hand press wont answer the demands made onto it, and he hez purchased a power-preii, which will print 1,009 sheeu aa boar. And to facilitate binis, and to make it perreckly shoor that we shell her all the currency we want, I her hed my name and lssaker's engraved so tbat it kin be printed in, thus sarin ns the trouble ur aiguia em with a pea.

Xiw York, September, 23, 1875. DEMOCRATIC LEADERS. John Morrissey was ignomiciously kicked oat of the Democratic Conven tion at Syracuse, bat be has no idea of letting tbe matter drop wuh that defeat lie changes tbe field of bat tle merely from Syracuse to Xew York, and that he will do better her,e there can be no doubt la the State Convention fee was terribly oat of his element. Tbe farmers, merchants. and other decent men sent to that convention irom the rural districts did not take kindly to the short-haired, broken-nosed gambler, not know ing that, prize-fighter as he was and gambler as be is, he is a better man, by all odds, than he who opposed him. Trne. he ia a gambler, but what better are any of the leading Pemocrats of the city? John Morrissey wants power, and he wants control ol patronage that he may add the profits of political plun der to the profits of bis faro banks; but he could not steal more than the leaders who bar proceeded him, if he tried. As between tbe gambler Morrissey and the other Democratic aspirants for the control of tbe city, I should much prefer Morrissey. lie has a sort of honesty, a rough sense of honor, and a great deal of liberali ty. What he should plunder the city of wonld not be thrown away in a reckless manner, aad the city would get back something. He ia the most decent man of the lot. Morrissey and his adherents are making a splen did fL'fit sjraicst Kellr and Tamni- I that the "oats" have become restive.

But ther will not do it BROOKLYN. Brooklvn is suffcrinar quite as much as .ew lork for wan; of good gov ernment indued, if any difference, the Democratic ring in that city is the more rapacious of the two. For the year 1375, $3,000,000 was col lected lor citr expenses. This mon-, ey is all gone, and three months le- main to be provided for. The tax levy next year will have to be not less than $15,000,000 which is seven per cent, oa the valuation. The way the money goes is frightfu'. In 'CT $115,000 was appropriated for the Wallabout Bay improvement- The next year the commission got 3o,000 mere, and in eight year they swell ed the expenditure to $1200,000. The big bridge is another swindle. Tho coat was originally placed at $3,000,000, but the way money is be ing expended upon it, it will cost $20,000,000 to finish it. Prospect Park, which was to cost $MO,000, has already reached an expenditure of $10,000,000, and it is not yet half finished, l aving has been made the vehicle for Tery big steals. Xearly a million of dollars have beea paid for paving oa three streets, which any fcossit contractor would have been glad to have done for $200,000. Is it any wonder that 6,000 houses are standing empty in Brooklyn, and that a man's poverty is estimated by the amount of real estate that he owns? Tea principles, one hundred lieutenants, and about two thousand strikers, have stolen ail this money from the taxpayers. And yet there are Republicans who look for reform by an alliance with the men who are, aud have been for years, donj this kind of work. HuE A'1N. Tho cold weather has brought back to their homes the thousands of families who have been feasting and flirting at the various summer resorts for the past four months. When it is pleasantly cool here it is very cold on the seashore and up in the mount ains, and there is precious little fun in flirting on hotel piaszaa in over coats and fura. ; And so back they coma from uncomfortable quarters, to whick fashion drives them onee a year, to their comfortable homes in the city, where they would have been better off all the season. They come back wearied, tired, and sick. Xot rested by a season of rest, but weari ed by the season cf dissipation. They will rest in their own homea a month, to get strength to. go through the dissipation of the w niter that is before thsav E.ut with the return of tha fashionables, Xew York looks once raore like Xew York. The Streets are full of pretty women prettily dressed, the Avenue and the Park shine sgain with handsome equipages, and the long deserted houses op-town are once more open ed to admit the light of heaven. The theatres and places of amusement be gin to show the effect of the incoming flood and so do the retail stores.

It is probable that aa enormous building, sonet'niog like Barnum's Hippodrome, will be erected for these men. which will be tbe centre of re ligious action for tbe city. That they can do a vast good here there can be bo doubt If they can con vert the Democratic leaders of the city, it would be a result for which, as in the old times, they would hare been canonized. If they work with as much zeal and effect as they did in England, they will make it possi ble for tbe Kedublicaos to carry tbe city next year. If the rum mills could only be closed, their chances of effecting something woiki be bet ter. But wua thousands of bars kept up and made a power by thou ands ot thieving politicians, tbe ten dency downward is terible.

BUSINESS still continues fair, and, if anything, is improving. There are large num bers ef merchants from all over tbe country here, and they are buying with tolerable freedom. While it is not the old-time rush, business is so much better than it has been, that everybody feels encouraged. The jobbers look for a still better trade later in the season. ISrLATIOX IS Till CITY.

Color wf Hwnsea. j Ia a letter which recently appear - ed ia the London Times, Lord Calth I rope, offering to contribute handsome-j ly towards a fund to be expended for the encouragement of horse breed ing ia Great Britain and Ireland. Oa which tbe Pall Mall Gazette says : The moderns, for the most part, have contented themselves with tak ing up the unassailable position as serted in the saying that "a good horse cannot be a bad color :" after all, looks very like a begging of ; tbe question. Ia all such questions we naturally turn the eyes of inquiry towards Arabia ; and the preference of the Arabs for a particular color is evinced very characteristically. 'If you are told," says one of their pre cepts "that a horse has been seen fly ing ia the air, ask what colo? h was; and if the answer be ' chestnut,' believe it" Their tradition also contains a story telling how an old Artb chief and his young son were one dr living before their enemies. The chiefs eyes were dim with age, j and there were in those days no field i l v i .1 e I- ,t .1 I glioses j ue tiiiu mereiure, tu ucpeuu oa the younger eyesight for all that could be seea of the pursuers. "My son," said he, "what horses do the? ride ?" "My father," was the an swer, "they be white horses." "Go ws, tten, towards the sun, and they wU melt away as the snow." After awhile the chief asked again. "What horses now, my son ?" . "My father, tney be black: norses." "Oo we, then, on the hard ground, and their hoofs will cleave to the hard earth A third time the chief asked. "What horses now, my soa ?" "My father, was the answer, "they be chestnut horses." "Quick, then, quick !" ex claimed the old chief, or we be dead men. Whether we English have any proverbial saying in honor of the chestnut may be known to somebody ; but there is no doubt tt at among our race tbe chestnut has very much distinguished himself. The taste for bays is, perhaps, more prevalent ia England, partly because the chestnut is believed to be peucliarly s: inject to inBrmities of constitution and of tem per ; and it is &aid that ia France under the secoad Empire the same taste was carried to to an extreme. It U asserted that, with the excep tion of a few saddle horses, all tbe horses admitted into the Imperial stables were required to be not only bays, but the "bais zains" that is bays without a single white Lair And it must be admitted tbat a com plete bay, with main and tail and four feet perfectly Uaik, is as hand some a quadruped as eye can see. How msch or little climate has to do with the eolor of horses, it is I very difficult to predicate at this ae of the world, for, though we may be told that white or gray and chestnut s most common in Kussia, and tbat in England, France and Germany bay ! is Lund to grea:ly outnunbf t any other, there is no telling bow far fashion and consequent high prices may have spurred oa enterprising breeders to the primordial tenden cies of climate. We should be in clined to confine the color of horses I in this country to black, bay, brown and chestnut. It is true that there are plenty of grays, but gray really belongs to the composit colors; and it is stated by authority that "all grar horses come into the world chestnut, or, more generally, black."

Theirs has gone to Ouchr, ia Switzerland, where he will receive a visit from Prince Gortschakoff as sooa as the later has completed hi "raisin cure" in the vicinity. The treatment of general debility by grapes is by no means new here, but it will probably appear a novelty oa your side of tbe ocean. At certain towns in Switzerland grapes are "rown solely as medicine, aud th vineyards are put to no other use. Instead of drinking water, 83 at other places, the patient is ent out to eat grapes, and must pick them himself from th vines. Where the doctor loruinanly instructs j drink so many glas; the patient t ;s of water, he- is instructed to eat just so many fcuaches of grapes, and no more. It i3 assumed to be dangerous to go be yond the doctor's prescription a sin gle grape. As strange as it may appear, invalids experience tha bes4 of good effects from the "raisin cure," or at least think they do, and go away very well satisfied. Another popular treatment is found at tbw mud baths of Schwalbach and other other places, where the patients are immersed in soft black mud up to the chin, and remain in the bath fo? some hours. Most of them Lave a floating table before theuiopon which they keep books, cigars, or refresh ments, according to the tastes- of the patient. After remaining two or three hours ia the mud one is washed off with a hose-pipe and put into a tepid bath, after which one is sap posed to feel better. If he does not. the operation is continued the next morning, and is repeated until the patient is cured or tired. Paris Cor mjionfltnt X. Y. Time. Liberal 3Iasaariss. There is profound philosophy ia the remark of the English nobleman who asked his tenant what made a certain spot ia the field grow so much stronger and better grain than the rest. "That," said the farmer, is muck midden" that is, a place where manure had been piled. "And why." asked the nobleman, don't you make tbe whob field muck rid den ?" Tbe point of the story lies in the fact that it has always been con sidered practically impossible to ob tain enough manure to secure the best results oa all land. Farmers have beea compelled to use manure sparingly in order to make it extend over their fields as far as possible, and even then tbey have failed in part, and only manured one-third to one-fourth of their tilled land. The result has been that much of the la bor employed has been on poor crops, when it might, by the U3e rf fertil izers have been on good.
