INDIAN SUMMEE.
Jaft after the death of the flowers,
And before they are buried iu snow,
Here couies a festival seuoro,
When nature i all aglow
Aglow with a mystical splendor
Xhat rivals the brightness of spring
glow with a beauty more tender
loan aught which fair summer could bring.
Some spirit akin to the rainbow
Then borrows its magical dies.
And mantles the fur spreading landscape
In hues that bewilder the e.ves.
The son from his cloud pillowed chamber,
Smiles soft on a virion so gay.
And dreams that his favorite children,
The flowers, have not passed away,
There's a luminous mist on the mountains,
A light axure base in the air,
As if angel, whilst heavenward soaring,
J J ad left their bright robes floating there.
The breese is so soft, so caressing,
It seem a mute token of love.
And floats to the heart like a blessing
from some happy spirit above.
ete days, so serene and so charming,
.Kvaken a dreamy delight
it fremulouj, fearful enjoyment.
Line soft strains of music at night.
We know tbey are fading and fleeting.
That quickly, too quickly, they'll end.
And we watch them wi'h yearning affection.
As at parting we watch a dear friend.
Ob ' beautiful Indian Summer!
Thou favorite child of the year
Thou darling, whom nature enriches
With gifts and adornments so dear!
How fain would we woo thee to linger
On mountain and meadow awhile, '
For our hearts, like the sweet haunts of nature,
Kejoice and grow young in thy smile.
Not alone to the sad fields of autumn
Dost thou a last brightness restore.
But thou bringest a world-weary spirit
Sweet dreams of itsohildhoott once more.
Tby loveliness thrills us with memories
Of all that was brightest and best ;
lliy peace and t-erenity offer
A foretaste of heavenly rest.
The Eeduction of the Public Debt.
It h; been a favorite theuie with all Cop
perhead orators and rgans to predict a dire
iul condition of the national finances, to
f- retell the most hopeless ruin to all depart
ments of industry, from ihe crushing influ
ence of the public debt. "We can never
-i-y tho National debt," asserted thee pro
mulgators ol ill omens. The national debt
was described as certain to reach three hun
dred thousand millions of dollars. This
ftremion would pass away before such a
lad oi indebtedness could ever be reduced
iu fractional parts. To pay the interest
i-ould require more of the resources of the
uople than they could spare from their bi
iine.ss aud continue prosperous.
Now, what do t he real results fIiow?
What has Congress actually accomplished
in this connection, because Congress alone
can open the sources whence the means are
derived, to pay the public debt? The an
wer is plain. In the first place, the esti
mation of f he amount of the nati'onal in
debtedness was too large by several hundreds
nf million-', while the rapid declension of the
a -tiial auiouut is unprecedented in the his
tory of any nation in tie world. No nation,
bo soon after a great war, commenced the
reduction of its debt. Peace was scarcely
declared, when the reduction of our debt
was made to the amount of many millions,
and continued to be reduced at the rate of
al)Out twenty millions per month. During
the last six months no less a sum tha $J38,
308,574 has been subtracted from the aggre
gate of our indebtedness. While the national
debt is thus reduced at the rate of two hun
dred and fifty millions a year, it is safe to
calculate that, with equal good management,
iu tcu or twelve years we shall be entirely
free. Our national expenses will be lessen
ed yearly, and our resources will increase as
the systems of revenue are perfected and
the industry of the people becomes more
fully developed. The estimate we have giv
en above may be too favorable ; but any man
who carefully examines the condition of our
finances cannot but feel a justifiable pride as
he contuii lates the rapidity with which our
Government is shaking itself tree of its fi
nancial burden. Congress, has legislated
wisely and well, and to it the people owe
miost entirely this unprecedented payment
of a ponderous debt. The success of the
great Union patty of the land gives fresh
vigortoour securities,and furnishes a pledge
that the best will be done that can be done
to speedily free the people from-the debt in
curred in saving the nation from ruin. . , .
Chanqk in the Fashions in France.
It is bewildering, and almost ridiculous,
says the London Queen, "to note the chango
hich fashion has of late wrought in the
appearance ot French ladies. During the
last SIX weeks thorp Kopn ft nllani all
the women who strictly follow the fashions
ppear to nave suddenly shrank, and, to
outward appearance, have grown both thin
ner and shorter. This is all owing to the
decrease in width of both crinoline and pet
ticoats, and the decrease in length of all
out-door dresses ; for it is an undisputed
feet that a .trained skirt adds considerably
to the apparent height of the figure-.... Still,
with all their graceful folds and sweeping
hoes, no sensible woman will regret the dis
appearance of the absurdly long trains and
sweeping dresses which have been worn
during the past two years in the streets, for
hey proved so-exceedingly inconvenient and
.uncleanly. The new fashion is infinitely
Biore reasonable, for it leaves the trains for
drawing-rooms, and insists on short petti
coats in the street and promenades.
A traveller in Montana relates that in
wme of the streams at the sources of large
rivers the speckled , trout are so ravenous
lht they will; bite at anything. He says
tey even followed , him into the woods and
bit at the . spurs on his boota as he rode
wy. Fishy story, that.
Accidental Insurance;
Between Keuosha and Milwaukee, an
agent of the Traveler's Insurance Company,
of Hartford, entered the car, and having
issued tickets toseveral passengers,approach
ed an elderly lady who, it afterwards ap
peared, was deaf.
"Madam, would yon like to insure against
accidents?" inquired the agent,at the same
time exhibiting his tickets.
"I got my ticket dowu to Kenosha." '
"Not a railroad ticket, madam ; I want to
insure your life against accident."
"I'm going to 0-hkosh to visit my dar
ling darter, who s married up there, and
has just got a baby."
The agent raised his voice a little.
"Would you like to insure your life against
accident?"
"She's been married two years and a half,
and that's thj first child. It's a gal.
Agent still louder.
"I am an insurance agent, madam. Don't
you want to insure your life against acci
dents?" "She got along first rate, and is doing as
well as could be expected."
Aeent at the top of his voice
"I i in an insurance, agent, madam; can
not I insure jour life against accident?"
"O, I didn't understand you," said the
old lady. "Xo, her name is Johnson, my
name is Evans, and I live five miles from
Kenosha."
Soup or Nothing. At a very excellent
hotel, not a hundred miles from our parts,
they were one day short of a waiter, when a
newly arrived Hibernian was hastily male
to supply the place of a more expert hand.
"Now, Uarney," said mine host, "mind
you serve every man with soup the first
thing serve the soup first."
"iJjdad I'll do that same," said the alert
Uarney.
Soup came on, and Barney, after serving
all but one guest, came up to the last one.
"Soup, sir?" said Barney.
"No soup tor me," said the man.
"But you must h; ve it it is the rules of
the house."
"D n the rules of the house!" ex
claimed the guest. " When I don't wane
soup I wont eat it."
"Well," said Barney, with all due solem
nity, "all I can say is this, it's the regula
tions of the house and d - n the dhrap
else will ye git till ye's have finished the
soup." . 1
The traveler gave in, and the soup was
gobbled.
Boys Using Tobacco. A Mrong .and
sensible writer says a good .-harp thing,' and
a true one, too, for boys who use tobacco.
It has utterly ruined thousands of boys. It
tends to soficnius and weakening of ti e
bones, and it. greatly injures the brain, the
spinal marrow and the whole nervous fluid.
A boy who smokes early and frequently or
in atiy way uses very large quantities of to
bacco, is never known to make a man of
much energy, and generally lacks muscular
and physical as well as mental power. We
would particularly warn boys who trant to
be anything in the world to shun tobacco as
a most baneful poison. It injures the teeth.
It produces an unhealthy state of the throat
and lungs, hurts the stomach and blasts the
brain and nerves.
Sleep When You "want. Let me as
sure you, that if you are seeking rest, and
feel the breath of the dream god about you,
even directly after breakfast, yield at once
sleep when you can and as much as you
can. Thus nature knits up not only the
ravelled sleeve ot one day's care, but goes
carefully over the whole fabric of your be
ing and makes good many a threadbare place
which incessant work has left unmended
from week to week. Yield to her hand as
she feels for the worn spots and if you can
go to sleep in the day timex even after a
good night's i est let no affectation of shame
hinder your acceptance of the privilege.
Lay the monotonous newspaper down, put
your legs upon the sofa, and go to sleep.
A gentleman once upon a time, entered a
small shop in which vegetables were kept
for sale, and inquired ot the proprietor it he
had any onions. "Onions onions," repeat
ed the puzzled vegetable dealer, "onions !
no sir, I believe not!" -After the gentleman
had left, the perplexed vegetable man scratch
ed his head for a moment, and then, as if
struck by a sudden solution of the mistake
be exclaimed. "Wonder if the darned ig
norant fool did'nt mean ingions 1"
A Surgeon, a short time since, was called
as a witness, for the purpose of provirg
damages upon an assault. He deposed that
he had bled the plaintiff; and being asked
if bleeding had been necessary, candidly
answered, "We always find it necessary to
do something when sent for.".
A "certain newly elected Iri-h Mayor,
speaking of certain articles in a vivacious
newspaper, observed : "I despise those un
derhand attacks. When I write an anony
mous letter, I always sign my name to it."
The London Stir, retiring to the Presi
dent's speeches in his tour to Chicago ex
presses iu belief that, "government by bill
ingsgate is not yet, and never will be. estab
lished in 'the great American Republic."
The editor whU "did not raindhis stops,"
introduced some verses thus : . "The poem
published this week was composed by an
esteemed friend who has lain in his grave
many years for his own amusement."
I never knew how it was, , but I always
seemed to have the most come in when I
gave the most away. Baxter.
A Copperhead who got drunk at an elec

Josh Billings says that "owing to the

An Irishman remarked to his comnanion.
on observing a lady pass, "Pat did ye ever
see a woman as tmn as that? Thin,
replied the other, "I seen a woman as thin
as two of her put together, I have."
A western editor lately married one of his
