Aa Idler*. Idyl. ? borrowed boat, a certain sky, A tide whereon to dream and dnft, Delay that never seems delay, Are more to me than gam or gift. A boat ls broader than a hearth. To borrow better than to own, For Care is In s manner blind. And follows Thrift by touch alone. The miller's heart is in his toll. The sower's thoughts plod to and fro, And who hath anything at sea Forebodeth windanna! never blow. Then, life, for thee the idle oar, A drowsy tide to drift upon, And air that hints of hills new mown, To lull thee when thy dreams come on. .CURRENT NOTES. A C HEAP COP OK TEA. There is a pleasant prospect of once more having some of the universal articles of dally consumption relieved of their present onerous duties. Mr. Schenck has brought in a tariff amendment to the Tax bill, which fixes the duty on tea at twenty cents per pound; coffee of all kinds at four cents; raw and muscovado sugar at two cents; clarified sugar at two and three-quarter cents; refined sugar, stove dried, * In loaf, lump, crushed, powdered or granula? ted,' four cents per pound. This-is progress in tc* right direction. It will be^kserved that tu? duties on these articles arereduced about one-half; and if $e Tax bill, with this amend? ment, is passed, the effect will be manifest in all households. Havinz begun this kind of re? form, let us hope Congress will keep on. THE MULTIPLICATION OP GREAT MEN'. What a puzzle tc the future compilers of biographical encyclopaedias will bethe mania of the period for biography printing; and with what wonderful rapidity the weeklies manage to manufacture celebrities now-a-days. A glance at the weekly press affords some seven or eight a week, which amounts to the manu Jkctxjre of four hundred or more per year. The ujtgtum was begun in 1853 or thereabouts, and bsa proved a money -nuking business. Makeup the Htatistics at the present rate for seventeen years, arid it would be found that not less than B*?en thousand celebrities have been manu? factured at an average cost to the subject of $100 apiece, whieh ls the usual fee for wood . cots and biography. Seven hundred thousand dollars represent the sum that these poor dupes have disbursed for reputations, accom? panied with wood-cms so vlllanous that their own mothers would not know them from their , pictures. But the most difficult part of lt ls bi this multiplicity of biographies-this epidemic of the biographical mania-to find out who is really celebrated and who is not. CHANGES IN THE INCOME TAX. The following seems to be the net result of the recent proceedings lu Congress, in the matter of the income tax. The rate was re? duced from five per cent to three - per cent. ; the amount of income 'exempt from tax was increased from $1000 to $2000, and the allow? ance for house-rent was limited to $500. These changes win operate about as fellows: the In? crease of the exemption to $2000 will relieve about one hundred and fifty-nine thousand sala? ried men, and other people of limited means, - from the payment of the tax, who now pay be? tween nine and ten millions; the reduction of the rate to three per cent will take off about . $8,400,000 more from the remaining hundred apd sixteen ttjoitsaqd, taxpayers, who will still .remain subject to the tai. ?9 the law now stands, the income tax of last year was levied . upon two hundred and seventy-five thousand . persons, who paid $25,025,068, -If the forego? ing amendments shall be finally adopted by the House and the Senate, they will reduce the amount raised from this source about $16,000, 000, and leave about $9,000,000 to be collected. Aa.the House has thus advanced two-thirds of the distance on tho right road, why not go the whole distance and abolish the odious tax al? together? COMMERCIAL NEWS. Export*.

If all the sickly people In the world were to take to their beds, and demand medical treatment, there would not be doctors enongh to attend them, nora sufficient number of the robnst to nurse them. Three conditions are absolutely es? sential to health, viz: a good appetite, easy diges I lion, and the ability to sleep soundly. Seven eighths of the many thousands who suffer from in? disposition, yet do not labor under serious dis? ease, complain that they "can't eat," that their stomachs are "out of order,'' or that they "don't sleep well." For this class of ailments few per? sons think of calling in a physician. Nor is it ne? cessary, inasmuch as a course Of HOS TETTER'S BITTERS will certainly relieve the derangements of the stomach, the liver, and the nervons system, from which want of appetite, Indigestion and sleeplessness arise. This excellent vegetable tonic and corrective is also a delightful anodyne. In? somnia, (or incapacity to sleep,) which has resist? ed all the ordinary remedies, will yield readily to a dose of this, pleasant sedative taken Just before retiring to rest. In ordinary medical practice lt ls usual to give a stomachic, an ape? rient, an in vigoran t, a soporific, or an antiseptic, as tho case for the time being may seem more particularly to require; but In this grand restora? tive all these medicinal properties, and many others, are blended In due proportion. Thns thc digestion ls stimulated, wi. ile the bowels are regu? lated, the liver toned, the strength recraited, the nerves calmed, the fluids purified, and the Circu? lation equalized. It is believed that there ts no other restorative and regulating medicine In the world which* acts so benellclally and agreeably upon all the assimilating" and secretive organs at the same time; and to all who lack the three fun? damental requisites of health and enjoyment, a vigorous appetite, sound digestion and refresh? ing sleep, lt ls confidently recommended as .*peculc.
