I :m almost there," Said a dying child, As lie upwand 'o 'ked And sweetly smiled; "The happy homes Of the blest I see, And an angel band Awaiting me. "I am almost there ! But do not weep ; In a Savionr's arms It is sweet to sleep," And he closed his eyes, And gently piaoed His folded hands Across his breast. 'I am almost. there ! Sweet Jesus, now." And the dawns of death L'erspread his brow ; And his brightening features Almost smiled, As we wept beside The dying child. "'As some tall cliff that rears its awful form Above the rest., and midway leaves the at orm, Though r.and its breast the rolling clouds are spread, Eternal sunshine settles on Its head." Lloyd Kingiman's Rival. It was a face for a tradegy-dark, passionate, melancholy. The mouth sweet, the eyes, so dark, so luminous; the ehesnut brown hair, so utterly beautiful. She looked innocent of her fate, standing there in the red light to the damask curtains, . un. conscious of Lloyd Kingn en's eyes, that one could not hope she would pass unscathed the ordeal of that bad man's wicked thoughts. W When she felt his baud touch her shoulder she started. 6"M1r. Kingman ! "Madge I" 11er soft eyes dilated - she atte mpt ed to retreat, but he prevented the movement. "Don't be afraid of 'me, child. I have scmething to say to you." 11er face was not encouraging, but he overlooked, as was characteristic, her wish. ''t love you. I want you to be iy wife, don't shrink from me in tOat way. You have nothing to be afraid ot. I want to take care of you and make you happy. She stood silent, trembling. "You do not know where I live. It is a beautiful place, full of trees and fountains and arbors covered with blossomed vines. The house is full of warm, rich rooms, you could wan der all day. and constantly find some thing new and beautiful. There t' a little boudoir, roboud in crimson, that has always been waiting for my wife. It has pictures, and couches, and soft, swinging lights in alabaster, for dark winter nights like this. There is a library, holding thouands of vol tines, Madge. You find nil the fairy tales and poe ry that you want, little one. Will you come ?" She shook her head tremublingly. "You need not promise now. Lis ten, I have wvealth and power, but no one to love me. You can make mec happy. Is that any consideration to your very kinud heart?" She litted her eyes to his face. They fell again. "But I do not love you," she said simply. "Liet me teach you l'' he said. 4 She tried to think ; drew a quick breath. "Don't be trule, lhe said. "I will give you all the time you want. Only do wear this to remember ame by, for I am going away to-morr'ow to be absenut a week.

She looked at the sparkling lng and saw ease, comfort, protec tion ; on the other side was only lone liness and toil. The alternative that should have been was not. The sol dier lover had proved fal.e ; the man she did love had forgotten her; the romance was ended, and here was a blank, but for this new episode. She looked at herself in the mirror as she daily brushed out the waves of her hair and saw how the rose had faded upon her cheek in the last year, and how the shadows seemed to have gathered around her eyes. "Martin will come back sume day in shoulder straps and spurs, with a wife on his arm, and I shall be such a pale shadow that he will even wonder that he ever called me pretty," she thought, and pride strengthened King man's Cause. When he came, the girl's promise was gained without difficulty. She seemed to lose herself after that. The novelty of her position gave her a now existence. It was so ftrangc to have anything worth caring tor but the old wearing thought, Mar sin. Rolls of rich goods appeared i. her room ; flowers and billets uccom panied them. Lapped in the velvet cushions of a luxurious coups she rolled out of the dingy city into the free breath of the country, where the blue birds had come and the skies were growing with the spring. She was young-not ready, after all to give life for you. It was so pleasint to be taken care of; wealth brought so much that was gratifying. She drove Lloyd Kingman to a clergyman's house one evening-was then made a wife. Then the horse's head was turned to a splendid hotel, who a luxurious suite of rooms were r vided for two rainy days. lie was her husband. She tried to realize it as he shut the rosewood be hind them, and quietly took off the wrappings which had protected her from the murky night. le drew a cushioned chair before the glowing grate. "Sit down, love, and get warm. I will be back in a moment." In a sort of a dream she saw him go out. Slowly she g l:nced about the exquisite room. Velvet carpet, snowy draperies, glowing f~aces upon the can vass, the wreath of glittering lights, suspended from the corniced ceiling, showed she smiled. The -warmth was luxurious; the place seemed smiling upon her. Nearly an hour had passed, and Kingman did not return. She rose at last, passed softly to a window, and looked. The street was bright with gas. The crowd surged to and fro beneath it. "Oh God I" she cried suddenly. She turned, and then snatehed her cloak from the couch, and fled hastily from the room. She flittered down the broad stairs, and, out at the eutrance into the chil ly night. She crossed the street un der the heads of dashing horses, and knew nothing but the tI e face beyond -Martin's face, pale and sad, and abstracted, as he slowly walked. She must look at hin-speak to him. In a moment more she had gained the uuru reached out, and grasped his arm. He startle~d, clasped her hand, and drew her aside. "Martin|I" "Madge, mny darling." For her face was pale and wild and pitiful, upturned to hisa. He flung the folds of his cloak about her as they stood in the shadow, and drew her shivering fornm close to his side. She stretched her ittle hand up to his face, forgetting the jewel upon it. "Martin, where have you been so very long ?" "In Camp Chase Madge."~ "Then you did net forgot me ?" "Forget you ?

The Supreme Court of the United States, through Chief Justice Uhase, has decided that contracts made for the pirohase of Confederate currency are valid, and that the parties holdiog unpaid obligations of this character are entitled to recover, in the United States Troasury notes the proportiou. ate value of the Confederate currency. This is an import t doi.-.i-n. it sets at rests all questions us to the legality of contracts, made in the cur rency of the late Confederate States, and settles the rule upon which op account of the total failure of that currency these are to be adjusted. But another and perhaps more seri ous question has arisen, and that is the validity of the United States our rency itself. The Supreme Court has already held that two classes of contracts are payable in gold. First. Th-ase which had their ori gin before the passage of the Legal Tender Act, and when gold value was the basis of all operations. Second. Those, whenever mado, in which the contract was spocial for the payment of gold. lint the question has now arisen as to the validity of the Legal Tender Act itself, and whether Congress, in its passage, did not exceed its juris diction under the Constitution. Heretofore, the Supreme Court has not met this question face to face. In previous cases the State Courts held the law to be constitutional, and, therefore, under our judiciil system to appeal lay to the Supreme Court, unless thelr decision was against the constitutionality of the law. But this has now been done. The case was argued at the last term, and in Janua ry the ultimate decision is expected. Its imp-)rtance will at once be per. coivod. It affects almost the only currency in existence in the country. It will extend to every department and character of business. The great issues at stake need but to be stated to be appreciated. Although the Supreme Court has not as yet pronounced its judgment on this question, yet it is believed by many of. the ;ableut lawyers .that the decisin wily beggainsttlte power :of Congress, and that the Acts is contra. ry to the Constitution.-Courier. Tun MIDNIoT SUN.-The follow i ig is a description of the scene wit nessed by m r. Campbell and his party in the north of Norway, as they stood on a cliff 1,000 feet above the sea. The passage is unsurpassed in graphic b"nuty: The ocean stretched far away in silent vastness, at our feet; the sound of its waves scarcely reached our airy lookout; away in the north the huge old sun swung low along the horizon like the slow boat of the pendulum in the tall clock of our grandfather's parlor corner. We all stood silent looking at our watches. \Vhen both hands came together at 12 o'clock, midnight, the full round orb hung triumphantly above the wave-as bridge of gold running due north spanned the water between us and him. There he shown in silent majes. ty which knew no setting. We in voluntarily took off our hata; no word was said. Combine, if you can, the most brilliant sunaset and sunris ing you ever saw, and its beauties will be pale before the gorgeous coloring which now lit up ocean, heaven and m )untain. In half an bour the sun hud swung up perceptibly on his beat, the colors changed to those of morn log, a fresh breeze rippled over the flood, one songster after another piped up in the grove behind us-we had slid into another day. Tuns Souorn CAROLINA Cran.-A meeting of young mep, in attendatice upon the Fair from different portions of the State, was held on Friday even. l-ig 'last, with a view to the organize 'tion of a society for* the purpos'e of p -dinoting sooial intercoutso amongst I t o gentlemen of South Carolina.

Spiritualistio Triokertes. Mrs. Iiarriet Thaekaborry, the me diumn, last evening held another un. earthly seance at 056 Broadway, at which there wore present thirty-five persons to wiiness the extraordinary doings of "lion" the sailor, who had the bad luck tobe drowned sime time ago in a lake which had more froh water in it than the doomed "salt" could c ueniently swallow. The cabinet was us usual placed upon the stage, and ani extennive piece of adhesive plaster was pinfed over the mouth of the gentle medium, who was attired in deep black ent mani fosted very little concern as to the villianies of the committee who tied her to a rickety chair and left her alone in her loneliness. "Ben" caine to time in strong-voic ed condition and explained how he swallowed more water than was good for him, and how, after an Uueonscious existence somewhere for six months, he got into spirit land on his own hook, where he was gr eted by his sister, who, he ungraiimatically ex plained, looked "more palor" than when she was a worldling:' The audi. ence was of course delighted, and so was "Ben," who, on the strength of his drowning, sang a rollicking song alone and then gr o 'illy gave way to two invisible fewajes, who sang in a strain that betokened much adhe sive plaster over their mouths. Then oamo the questions. The first was : "Wh~at Is the eraet distance be tween the moon and the seccad story of the Fifth Avenue Hotel 1" This was a stunner, but " lin" was, in an indefinite way, fully equal to the occasion; for he made the coo. nomical reply that, as he had never been "to" the Fifth Avenuo Hotel lie couldn't toll the distance, which was of course a very spirited responso in deed. "Is it lawful for a man to marry his widow ?" asked a young man who didn't wear glasses, and' who parted his hair in the middle. "Of course not," replie4 the medi um, much to the morrimeri, of the aw'lionce. "What is the density of the atmos phere to the square inch .in the spirit land ?" inquired another yotla "Ben" said he hadn't. 44p. suren vey of the iIrit laud, afid so wasn't able to answer squarely. Here a gentleman asked "Ben," as a sailor, how many feet were contain ed in a fathom, but the medium con tended he wasn't "learned" about that sort of thing. A lady wanted to know if he "be lieved in the iudefimnte of the ab stract," and he made a reply as intel ligible no doubt, to himself as it was a mystery to other people. An individual whom the medium, in answer to a question, designated as a Mr. Luna, wanted to know "which, was the gray goose or the white goose the gander ?" ion stuttered for a while, chuckled quite audibly, and then in an angry tone declared that no "fowl" talk was allowed among the spirits. This brought down the house, and shortly afterwards, when the me dium had untied and tied herself by spiritual means to her chair, the audi once .dispersed, of course believing in spiritualism, Yelept ventriloquism.

WALKER. -The fuieral of the late Robert J. Walker to)k place at Washington on the 13th inst.. and was attended by a large nunbor of citizens, including a great many members of the bar. The funeral services were conducted by. the Rev. Mr. Chew, of St. Albun's church of this District. The Preai dout's family were represented by Mrs. Grant, General F. ). Dent and Mr. Dent, the father of Mrs. Grant the President being unable to attend on account of business engagoments. Merars. Fish, Robeson and Cox, of the Cabinet, were also present, as well as a largo number of other distinguish. ed gentlemen, many of whom have occupied prominent official positions in thin District. A heavy snow storm prevailed at the time the funeral moved from the house. The remains are interred at Oak Hill Cometary, Georgetown. The Treasury and Post Ofioe Departments were both closed to-day ; the former in respect to the memory of the late Robert J. Wal kor and the latter in respect to the memory of Amos Kendall. It has been stated that Mr. Wal ker's health succumbed to severe mental exertion. It Is known that he w is most indefatigable in his financial labors. Indeed, almost up to the hour of his death he was eng.aged upon a pamphlet, showing by the closest statistical calculation that New York must, before long, become so much the superior of London as to com mand the commerce of the whole world ; ; when a hill of exchange drawn on Now York will be worth more than any other in the world. Calculating the actual distanoes, he shows that New York is really nearer the centre of communication with the oommeroial.world than London, which is eleven degrees north of the centre of production, and the natural path way of the world's commerce. Seve ral improvemonts he also suggests in the harbor of New York. This was the last work of Governor Walker's ac tive mind, and is addressod to S. B. Briggs, of Now Brunswick, N. J., who has been associated with him on these subjeots for the past two years. ---N..Y. Herald. BNie. BUTLER REA.LY BLUSHa. A loyal friend has repeated to us a good joke on the honorable member of Cotgross from Massachusets, Benja min F. Butler, simply because it is good. The gentleman is a friend of But ler, and tells the truth. %% hen Bon was in the last time, which was only a few days since, he was a guest at the Astor House. At dinner one evening he met with one of those provoking accidents that will happen sometimes, and that have hap pened to many better persons than Butler. A spoon slipped up his coat sleeve. This, of course, was all un noticed by Butler, as well as by any parties at the table, until a few mo ments later, when the cock-eyed statesman lowered his hand, and Clang.lanq-long-lang-ang / The spoon fell out of his sleeve and danced on his plate like a nigger on fire. Of course all eyes were turned that way. Every one saw the spoon, Butler and the point I The narrator says it was the first time Butler ever blushed .-Democrat. SOUNDING IN 'TffS SUEz CANAL. The steam launch Pauline, under the command of Captain Kirlon, of the Peninsular and OrIental Company's servica, has (says the London Post, of November 2) surveyed the Suez Ca nal throughout, taking soundings all the way. The least depth in the channel Is twenty feet, and the re maining obstructions are being rapid ly removed. The decline that took place In Paris In Suez Canal shares is said to have been oaused by the receipt of the following dispatch : "The cap tain of the Algte declares that lei steamer will not be able to make the passage of the canal. Great eonfu-. sion is the result. The Em~press is said to have insisted on the Emperor's sending direet orders to mnake fresh soundings, and lighten the Aigle, which must pass at any cost." UNDERDRAINING.-The subjeot of drainage is one so simple, and the weight of testimony so powerful, that there can hardly be two opinions. Drainrage and deep and thorough til lage are the things to make farming luerative. flrainasgo not only, icrease es the fertility of land, but 1inports wvarmth and genislity, and causes crops to ripen earlier.

A REMsDY Nanon.-Justice has becotho an expensive luxury. In a case of assault and battery, which has just been tried at the present sitting of the Court, we understand that six ty witnesses were bound over on the part of the State. The lowest.amount due any witness in this case that wo have hoard of is nineteen and the highest twenty-five dollars; so the expenses of the case may safely be estimated at one thousand dollar. When the tax-payers of the county remember that they are responsible to witnesses on the part of the State, they will certainly fool same interest in the matter; for a few oases of this sort would soon put the taxes up to a fig uro were every tax-payor in the coon. ty would have a fine ohance of fooling the effects of justice. Magistrates should not forget that in the mouths of two or three witnesses all things shall be established-that a half doz on are as good as a 'hundred, and that a thousand cannot make a bad case just. While it is the duty of a mag istrate to be careful Ingseouring the means to justice, it is o ually his duty not to run the tax-payers to an unne oessary expense. By so doing he will, to some extent, apply a remedy. The true remedy, however, we think is in the old system of not paying wit nesses on the part of the State. It is the duty of every man to aid the Stato in maintaining its peace and dignity, for the life of the individual and the welfare of the community de pond upon the protection extended, and it is but a small return lie makes when he aids the solicitor with infor mation to effect this objeot. But un der the powers that be we have no hope of a change for the bettor, for the higher the taxes the better are they pleased ; and we, therefore, ap peal to the magistrates, when binding witnesses in a case, not to give to it an unnecessary number, for such a course is certainly great injustice to the tax-payers.-Larenaville Iierald. A MAnRIAGE AND A FUNERAL. SER VICE AT THE SAME TiD1E.-The Rev. Timlow,, of East Cambridge, says the Newborryport (Mass.) Herald, was called upon on the 8th inst., to per form a duuble service and of directly opposite nnfu-e. It was that of a marriage and funeral in the same family and at the same hour. The mother had died, and just before b1r death requested her daughter to have her contemplated marriage consum mated as soon after her death as prac ticable. It so happened that conve nience and other things pointed to the hour of the funeral service. And so it occurred that, by the side of the mother's coffin, the daughter was mar ried. There was the weeping father, with the sacred marriage tie just bro ken, and there was the daughter just forming the tie, and with emotions that can hardly be imagined. Just after the marriage ceremony Mr. 'Tim low proceeded with the burial servi ces. It was a season of great solemni My, and yet must have impressed all the spectators as very strange. The greatest co-oporative enterprise yet projected in this country is the Sutro tunnel. More than $500,000, 000 is supposed to be hidden in a most unluckily constructed mountain in Nevada, the previous veins runnDing through the centre of the mass rather than along the convenient slopos. ,Already the mines have been sunk to such a depth that they cannot be pumped out or ventilated except at too great coat. Mining ingenuity pro posed a tunnel Into the mountain, cut ting the veins, draining the mines, and laying open the whole deposit. 0on gress was asked for a loan to aid in the work, but refused, and Mr. Sutro was In a measure forced Into the co operative scheme, which Is already ad vanced to some extent. Three th ous and laboring men are asked to paey in an average of ten dollars each a month, to b ppid to the construction of the tunnel, and secured by ownership 1n the inine. The money, of course, omes back to the' mainers In tho shape of wages, with the prospeot of a rich Interest when the silver deposits are reachod. The plan seems to have struck the infancy of the Nevada mi noes, and many are respondhIg to the call for thirty-three oents a day, and beoomingprospetite owners' of whoi is believed to be'the greatest silver mine on the continent.
