v Tho TorcU-Llght Procession. The New Orleans Picayune produces tho following touching lines, appropriate to tho present electioneering times: In the dark, with a child on her bosom, A woman is walking the door, Moaning, while hushing her darling, "Oh, God! what it is to be poor;' In the dark, with a child on her bOBOm In the dark of a comfortless room Not even a candlo'e dull ray to sootho Tho terrible acho of tho gloom. Down the street throngs a Joyous proces? sion, With thousands of lamp? Bil alight, And the glare of whispering rockets, Ascending tho shadow? of night. Oil enough for the multitude's marching, And music, aud hauners, and flower?, Whilo the blue of tho zenith is blazing With grand pyrotechnical showers. All alone, with her poor littlo burden, A woman, with hungering eves. Soothes, with lips that aro pallid with fast? ing, Hor famishing baby's cries. She catches the echoes of loud huzzas "Great God!" she sighs under her breath; "While opulence squanders so much away, Must my little one staive to death?" Hark! tho tramp of tho marchers comes nearer Transparencies gleam past her door "Our Cause," "Our Kind," and "Our Country," sho reads, I But never ono mottoed "Our Poorl" And she looks at tho dickering torches, And counts tho magnificent flags, Then tunis, with a gasp, to her darkness again, And her scant and unseemly rage. Like a riv6r of light, tho procession Flows away down tho Btony street, And the star-studded gates of the mid? night Cloee on tho retreating feet. The music dies ont-in tho dim afar AU is silence, and peace, and rest. Save a maaiac mother paefng the floor A littlo cold corpso on her breast. THE LITTLE OLD GENTLEMAN. .'Would you like to look at the Times, sir? Singular trial, that of Bisk Allah Bey against the Daily Telegraplu" The speaker was a curious little old man, cleanly dressed, cleanly shaved, with short crisp, white hair, and a face like a red pippin; such a face as is hardly ever seen ont of this coun? try, and even here rarely, eave amongst farmers, game-keepers, or others who aro much in tho open air at all seasons. This little-for ho was very small indeed as to 6ize-this little old gentleman was encountered in a first-class smoking carriage, on the South-western railway. "Curious trial, that, before tho Lord Chief Justice," continued the old gentleman, os if he wished to promote further conversation. "I was once tried for murder, myself," (with a pleasant smile.) ''Yes," said the little old gentleman, "and very nearly hung, too. I did not get off free. I was sentenced to transporta? tion for life; went through seven years of it, and they pardoned mo for what I had never done." "You see," said the little old gen? tleman, smiling more than ever, as tho five other smokers in the carriage stared at him-"You seo, I was for many years a cattle merchant in London. My business consisted in receiving from nbroad-from Hol? land, Germany, Normandy, or wher? ever I could form a connection oxen, cows, sheep, pigs; somo on my own account, others to bo sold on commission for correspondents, who sent their animals to me for sale. Tho trade was a profitable one. Every beast sent sent over on my a 3 count was fully insured, so that if they died on the passage, I came upon tho insurance company. I had very few debts, and taking one thing with another, I may havo fully cal? culated upon realizing at least twen? ty-five per cent, on my capital every three months. In other words, I got a profit of one hundred per cent, on the money I had commenced business with. "But with money comes tho desire for more. There was a time before I began to deal in cattle, when I thought myself rich, if, at the end of ft year, I had two hundred pounds in bank, over and above my expenses for the last twelve months. Now it was otherwise. I lamented that I had not always an idle balance of fifteen hundred or two thousand pounds. I was fond of money for money's sake. I could not maka money fast enough for my wishes in the cattle trade, and therefore deter? mined to do a little in the loan'and discounting way. "It is nearly twenty years ugo, and I have gone through a great deal of tron?o since. My system was never to put too many eggs in one spot never to lend very much to any sin pie person-but to lend very small amounts to various people. I used to answer the advertisements of tradesmen in difficulty, and if I found that a borrower had good se? curity to offer, I would lend him per? haps thirty or forty pounds, taking ten pounds a month for the accom? modation, and much more in propor? tion for longer periods. One of my clients was a printer, with a small business, near what was then called tho New Road, near Marylebone Road. Ho had often borrowed twen? ty, thirty, and once as much as sixty pounds from me, and had always re aid mo to the day. The security s gave me waa all the Mame, joint note of band of himself and his bro? ther, a grocer up Hockney way. The name of this borrower was Strange_ Edward Strange. He waa in a deli? cate state of health, always suffering from his chest, and in severe winters he used to be laid op for weeks toge? ther with a bad cough. He was a widower, withont children. "One day, Strange carno to me and ] said that ho had a very exciting offer to enter into partnership with a print? er who had been established in busi? ness several years. The sum required to be paid for the partnership was three hundred pounds, and he asked me to advance that amount upon tho security of a policy insurance for ono thousand pounds upon his own life. On inquiry I found that, years be? fore, Strange had. whoa a young ?nd healthy young man, effected an in? surance upon his lifo for live hun? dred pounds. This policy he always mannged to keep up, and .still wished that it should not relapse. As it had been running on for nearly twenty years, and as ho paid a very smul premium, and wns now in very bad health, the insurance company would have been very glad to have pur? chased it back. Therefore, after looking nt the affair in every possible way, I carno to the conclusion that the security was good, and that I might safely advance tho sum of three hundred pounds upon the se? curity policy beiug endorsed over to me. This was done, and I ad? vanced the money. Gentlemen, it was the worst day's business I ever did in my life. "In general, a creditor sees but little of his debtors, whether they are few or many. Tho man who owes money generally avoids tho indivi? dual to whom ho owes it. But it happened otherwise with Strange and myself. With the now business that he had bought, ho was not ex? pected, nor oven wished, by his part? ner to interfere ; and his own indif? ferent health made it very desirable that ho should bo as free as possible from the confined air of tho close printing rooms. Tho partnership he had purchased secured for bim a certain amount of income which, together with what ho had besides, allowed him to go about in divers parts of the country, traveling being much recommended by tho medical attendant. Knowing that I had to make weekly trips to Harwich, and that I had often to go to Rotterdam in the way of business, when looking after cattle, ho asked me whether ho could bo of any use to me as clerk. He asked for no salary, only his actual traveling expenses; and for this ho was to keep my accounts and write my letters and mako himself generally useful. The bargain was a good one for both parties. On the one hand, my business was increas? ing evoy week, and having to knock about n great deal at fairs, and to see a great many dealers, I had no time to look properly after my ac? counts, which sometimes got rather complicated. On tho other hand, Strange had enough to live upon, but not enongh to pay traveling ex? penses with comfort. Having been friends for several years, when we traveled together wo always had our meals in common; and in country places, or where the inns were very full, wo generally took a double-bed? ded room between us. "After a time, I found Strange's assistance of such value to me; that I was able to increase my connections very materially indeed. Being a shrewd mau, he was able at the end of a twelve-month, to make purchnses and conduct my business as well as I could. This led, naturally enough, to a partnership being formed be? tween us, by tho terms of which I was to lend him five hundred pounds to put into the business, of which he was to have a fourth of the net profits. As surety for tho five hun? dred ponnds, he insured his lifo for another thousand. Thus, when we commenced working together os part? ners, Strange owed me eight hundred ponnds, and I held policies of in? surance on his life for two thousand pounds. "Our business trips used generally to last from a week to a fortnight. Sometimes wo were detained at the port to which we had brought tho animals for four or five days, await? ing tho means of shipping them to England; for it is not every steamer that will take bollocks, or sheep, or pigs, as cargo. Sometimes ono of us would remain in London conducting tho sales of such animals as his part? ner sent him from abroad. And this had happened when tho event of which I am now going to tell you took place. ICONTINUED IN OUB NEXT. J a- , . " _._-5 DEMOCRATIC NOMINATIONS. MUNICir-AIi OFFICERS-CITY COLUMMA. For Mayor.
