Go look within your closet. friend, And see what you can find; And if you fail, in looking there, A skeleton to find, Then say of me whate'er you may, And place on scandal's tide Your version of the son of one Who chanced to step aside. But do not say I took the step * Without sonime good excuse, ,Or call tme yet a metuirep, For that would be abuse: I know I err'd, and feel the sin That poisons all my pride, But, Oh ! if placed as I havtbcen You, too, mnight step aside. I loved as only woman can, And hoped as women do; I trusted, but I found the man As false as I was true ; He pronired with a sacred vow To make of m6 his bride, Ah-well! you comprehend me now, And why I stepped aside. -N. Y. Clipper. THE EARLY FALL MOSQUITO. 'Tis not becausc lie lhummeth On airy wing, That you may know he cometh, Your flesh to sting. He tIobbeth up serenely To take a bite, So quietly and meanly, With silent spite; And thus you furnish meat to .The early fall mosquito. At bars and screens he laugheth, So lithe and small, And blood lie freely quaffeth, * In spite of all. His sharp phlebotomizing * By day and night, Corpuscles analyzing With keenest sight, Maketh existence sweet to The early fall mosquito. The crime that he committeth Is shocking, too; For while your blood he letteth, He ppusoneth you. No sta.ion le respecteth, If lily or high ; No person lie neglecteth, Or passeth by lIe'stings both rich and poor, too, The early fall mosquito. --. Y. 8un. OUR NEW YORK LETTER. Hott Hotter! Hottestl-How It Affects the Freight Handlers-ItalIans and Hebrews Oat of Luck-How the Dutchman Got Away With the Short Boys-Good News on Wall Street-The Flight to the Water Ing Places--aliding News, etc. NEW Yoag, July 22, 1882. EDIToR CIIIEP: I think it was last year as the dog days drew nigh that I mnde the discovery that warm weather wa~i not conductive of morality. It is not that mlen do a little more swearing than usual, or that they become morally oblivious to their per sonal obligations; but as the thermom eter rises the moral barometer falls, so that while zero might represent an aver age degree of frozen virtue, 80 degrees in the shade would stand for average ras cality, 90 degrees for infernal villainy, and 100 degrees for the usual class of crimes punished by the State prison or the gallows. While the thermometer stood at 70 degrees the freight handling strikers were tolerably peaceable and undemonstrative; but the moment it rose to 90 degrees in the shade it seemed as if the devil, or some one else, had got pos session of them. They iolt poor wretches with stones, whose only offense is that they are compelled to work for what they can get or starve; and for this they are knocked down and beaten with clubs; and this in a country which is supposed to be the model republic in the world! The Driscolls, McCarthys, O'Dwyors, Ilennesseys, Kellys and Sullivans swear "be St. Patrick we won't have ana av thimn Oitalian fariners intherferin' wid our roights." This question will have to be met sooner or later, and maintained at the bayonet's point, if necessary--the right of every man to his own free labor without let or hindrance from any other 1man; and until the day comes when ev ery man can say, without fear, what he y.ill take for his labor, this is not a free country; and the government that won't maintain a man in that -right--I don't care whether he is :n Italian or a China man-deserves to fall. Let the boss be free to say what le will give, and let the man be free to say what he will take; hut do not allow him to beat or kill any other llln who feels inclined to take less. Nothing pan be more pitiable than the condition of some of the Russian Jews who have lately landed here. Many of them are in the extreme of destitution. In their own country they would work from the rising of the sun to the going down of the same, for half a dollar. A dollar and a half a day looks like big wages to them, so they eagerly accepted the offer to go to work. What must be tieir opinion about our American civili zation when they found themselves chased like wild wolves, and saw'someof their poor companions brought in all maimed and bleeding, their only criurie being that they tried to make an honest living. New York is booming now with Land League meetings, and thousands of dollars are being collected for poor op pressed Ireland; but if England has done any thing worse in Ireland than the Irish have done to the Italians and Russians in New York, I have yet to see it or hear of it. It is disgraceful that such a state of allairs should exist in the principal citey of the Union, and if Mayor Grace were not afraid of losing votes at the next election, with the unlimited power at his control, it would not exist for an ]hour; but these low ruffians have votes, and a few broken heads might endanger the Mayor's majority. About thirty years ago a party called the Short Boys, a lot of the worst rnffians that ever cursed a city, thought- we were getting too many Dutch among us. The Dutclhmen were inclined to be peaceable, but the Short Boys were spoiling for a fight. Well,-they got it after a time, and it wasn't necessary to say to theml, t: Don't you forget it," for they did not forget it without telling, and they have not fiorgotten it yet, tihat is, if any of them ltae alive alid ollt of prisonl. Oh! what. a wallaping t he Dultehi11e11n gave Sthem ! 'l'h'ere "wl'e no ahllanc1llles lhlen, but. t-herer lwCt ;i ots of dead and broken np Short ih.ys cal ritd offl on doors and hlniLteirs. to the great delight of all order loving citizens, who would have been happy if they had all been blown up with nitro-glycerine. German stock has been at par from that day to this, and is likely to continue so; and I hope to see the day come when the Italians and Rus sians shall be able like the Germans to take their own part against a lot of cow ardly curs who would attack a destitute stranger trying to make an honest living in a strange land. As I said at the beginning, it's the thermometer, so I sat down to study out the case, and I finally discovered that no good people are to be found in any very hot place; and the hotter it is the worse they are, so my advice is to keep cool. The week has been one of exceptional violence, assaults, murders, suicides and robberies. Two murders have occurred here within a few days, which if they had taken place in Mexico or Arizona among the Indians, would have aroused the nation; but we have got so familiar with this sort of thing that no one seems surprised at it. It would appear that no place is as safe to kill a man as the streets of New York. Within a very short time two men were killed under exactly simi iar circumstances ; that is to say, they were with friends; they were not alone. in a dark alley, but in a broad street, well lighted, yet in both cases the mur derer escaped, and from present appear ances it don't look as if he ever would be found. The only thing that we have had at all cooling or consoling for a week was Bro. Beecher's formal announcement last Sun day of his disbelief in a personal hell. Shades of John Calvin and Wesley, but it must have kicked up a row if some of the good old orthodox Presbyterians who are now enjoying their otiunt cum dignitate on the other side of the Styx could have been flying around when Henry Ward made that comforting declaration. I look upon hint as a public benefactor. I don't want any Gehenma in mine; the taste I have had of it for the past five days assures me that it is not a pleasant thing to have. I've been ciphering. If it so intolerable with the thermometer at 96, what would it be at 10,000,000 degrees ? No, NO! No hades in mine. I'm going to apply for membership at the Plymouth Church forthwith. SThe hot weather has not been wholly unproductive of good; the bears have begun to hunt their holes in Wall street, and the bulls are sloshing around with blood in their eyes. Stocks have gone up with a boom, and present appearances indicate a rising barometer; money is abundant and cheap, and people feel that they must do something; it's agin the law to go in for a little anto at poker or thbe Egyptian king; but you can go in for your bottom dollar on Lake Shore or Northwestern without the slightest fear of a church inves tigation, s s their wives and families are all off at the watering places, the boys are going in for fun. The good news from the West of big crops has something to do with it undoubtedly, hint whatever it is, the boom has come to stay. A friend at my elbow snggests that the average Wall street broker will have to get used to this weather sooner or later, and that may be the reason why we have so buoyant a market when the thermomete r touches the nineties. Everybody who could conveniently get out of town has gone; one very worthy man remains, but mty modesty forbids me to name him. The advent of a new loco motive on the Erie road has been one of the sensations of the week. It is built on the principle of a naphtha stove, the generating power being naphtha and water. One thing is certain, and that is the thing will go. The trial trip last Tuesday was of the most satisfactory character. There is one thing that will recommend it to the traveling public-no possibility of getting a cimler in your eye, for there is no smoke and cinders, which is a great advantage. The activity in building is wonderful; some of the largest structures that New York has ever seen are now being built. A imillion 'of dollars in a building now seems nothing; and its for height, I don't know where they are going to stop. Ten, twelve, fourteen stories are not uncom l1on, anid for fear they are not imposing enough, every man now puts a tower or steeple on his house and every fellow is trying to get a little higher than every other fellow. When you get down ill the street after an excursion to the top of one of the buildings you might imagine your self on tlhe plaitns of Shinar, for such a polyglot of tongues could scarcely have been mustered at the base of tile tower of Babel.

If subscribers order the discontinuance of the periodicals, the publisher may con tinue to send them until all arrearages are paid. 3. If subscribers neglect or refuse to take their periodicals ronm the office to which they are directed, they are held responsible until they have settled their bills, and or dered them discontinued. 4. If subscribers move to another place without informing the publishers and the papers are sent to the former direction, they are held responsible. 5. The courts have decided that " refusing to take the periodicals fromu the office, or removing and leaving them uncalled for is priutu facie evidence of inteutional fraud." 6. Any person who receives a newspaper and makes use of it, whether lie has or dered it or not, he is held in law to be a subscriber. 7. If subscribers pay in advance they are bound to give notice at the end of their time, if they do not wish to continue taking it; otherwise the publisher is authorized to continuei sending it on, and the subscribers will be responsible untlil an express notice with the paylment of all arrears, is sent to the publisher. In the operation known as skin graftl ing, Dr. Lamaller6e of Paris recently used at the same time grafts from the abdomen of a rabbit and from the forearm of a man. The skin from a rabbit gave much the better results, as it readily adhered and grew while the other did not. Three months after the operation the healing of the sore had continued to progress favorably, and the engrafted skin showed no trace of its origin. BAILEY'S SALINE APERIENT.-This article has grown into rapid favor with the people -the masses, and very justly too, because the proprietors were liberal enough to offer it at one-half the price such articles had been heretofore selling at. It is placed at 50 cents per bottle so all can afford to use so potent and pleasant a medicine. It is a charming purgative, well adapted to sum" mer use, as it cools the system, cleanses the stomach, opens the bowels and unlocks the liver, while it is one of the most pleasant beverages in use. For immediate cure of sick headache, heartburn, etc., it has no equal. Dr. Hasselberg of Pulkova has been able to trace to some distance in the tail of the comet the bright lines of sodium seen by many observers in the spectrum of Comet Wells. This observation is an important one, and must explode many of the theories advanced concerning the constitution of those remarkable and mysterious appearances known as comets' tails. A Good Foundation. In American households the prevailing complaints are weakness of the stomach and its consequences, Indigestion, Nervousness and Rheumatism. Such sufferers can lay a good foundation for health by using Par ker's Ginger Tonic as it tones up the stomach and nerves, and keeps the kidneys active to carry off the foul matter.-N. 0. Picayune.

The delicate odor of Floreston Cologne is entirely novel. Look for signatures of His cox & Co., N. Y., on each bottle. Many persons take medicine for their ail ments, and as soon as they feel better they disregard all directions and stop taking it. They try it again and again, and finally throw it aside as worthless, when, had it been persevered in from the start, a perma nent cure would have been effected. Now in taking Prickly Ash Bitters for all com plaints of the stomach and bowels, remem ber to give the medicine a chance, and don't expect one or two doses to cure you.
