SPRING.
BY JDI M'nOWELL.
Iu the spring voracious small boys
Of the unripe fruit partake.
Mid the neiglilKiiliood may hear them
" Moaning with the belly-ache.
In the spring the trees are tinted
With the colors of the south;
In the spring the festive shad man
Miootcth oft' li i tuneful mouth ;
In the spring the trees are whitewashed
And the carpets dusted well :
Husbands tackle sooty stovepipe?.
Take down stoves and swear like the deuce.
GREEN APPLES.
An employee of the mint is a person of
some eoiusequence.
Circuses are getting ready to produce
in tents excitement.
One of the Pullman sleepers is called
the Minerva. It's a special Pallas car.
Old people are generally in their an
tedotage, and the result is history gets mixed.
It is said that the French have no
respect for the oyster because it never had a bony
part.
An exchange says that new novels
nre flooding the laud. Ibis, of course, does not
include the dry kind.
An exchange asks: "When does a
lK-kgct ripe enough to pick?"' As soon as the
t-pring opens, of course,
It rains alike on the just and the un
just on the just mainly because the unjust have
borrowed their umbrellas.
A phvsician of Galena told Grant he
could curchira of his fondness for tobacco. Grant
carefully avoids that physician.
A voting city fellow hought a farm
lat winter. He had a fine orchard of about two
hundred apple trees and a fnr weeks ago bo tap
ped every one of them for cider.
Over his sweetheart he leaned and
laughed ;
A picnic boy with a clear blue eye,
Foolish and idle he sat him down
Heaven help his pants it was custard pie.
Surrounded by Satisfied Suckers.
The members of the Illinois State Ee
publican Association called upon Hon. BobertT.
lincoln Saturday evening, to pay their respects
and congratulate him on his selection as Secretary
of War. They were presented by Mr. S. J. AVhit
nker. president of the association, and Hon.
Tlioma. J. Henderson and Hon. William Aldrich,
of Illinois delivered short congratulatory ad-dres-3.
Mr. Lincoln thanked the association for
the visit, and said that during his administration
of the War Department he should use his best
efforts to always merit the approbation of the
citizens of Illinois a State that had such able
representatives at the Capital, both in the halls of
Congress and in the executive departments.
Among those present were Hon. J. C. Sherwin,
Hon. Mr. Cullen. Mr. E. B.Wight, of the Chicago
Tribune, Mr. T. L. Lamb, Theodore L. DeLand, Mr.
(., Colonel B. F. Chase, Colonel W. A. Moore,
Colonel A. H. Holt, Captain Cutler, Mr. Marsh, Mr.
Samuel McPherson, IUram Pitts, S. M. Findley,
and C. C. Svmson.
Tlie District Surveyor.
It seems that the District Commis
sioners are unnecessarily delaying the appoint
ment of asuceessor to Mr. Partridge. The citizens,
embracing every class interested bankers, real
estate dealers, business men, the judges of the
courts, the bar "and property-holders generally
have indicated their preference and desire in
signing the application of Mr. William Forsyth,
and it seems that their wishes should be gratified,
as they are the parties most interested. His ex
perience in all the duties pertaining to the office is
greater than that of any other man, and heap
pears to be entitled to the appointment.

MONETARY MATTERS.
FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL NEWS.
Wall Street Transactions The Latest Quotations
in Stocks and Bonds Xcw York and Bal
timore Produce Harkets London
and Paris Money Market.
The following observations on the transactions In
the financial market yesterday, together with highest,
lowest, and closing stock quotations, are furnished by
the banking-house of H.D. Cooke, jr., fc Co., 1192 F
street, Washington, D. C:
The market opened strong this morning and main
tained a firm tone all through the day. Tho trading,
although only amounting to about 200.0CO shares, was
very lively. There being very lew " country " orders,
tho operating was done mostly by people who were
" on the spot." This condition of affairs almost always
makes an active trading market. The list closes to
night with an advance of from jx to Zli per cent., the
exceptions being fractional declines In Western Union
told and new), Manhattan Elevated, Delaware and
Hudson, Delaware, Lackawanna and Western, and a
drop or Hi per cent, in Nashville and Chattanooga.
Toward the close there was a slight reaction, caused
by a few sales from "one day scalers," people who
take in profits made between opening and closing.
It Ls now apparent that the Treasury Department
intends (as far as It can consistently and justly do so)
to keep money easy and nourish the financial inter
ests of the country. This fact certainly makes a good
" bull " argument, but too much stress must not be
laid upon its eftlcacy to advance prices. The condi
tion of the money marker is certainly a very impor
tant consideration in determining the present and
prospective status of prices In the market, but there
are many other Important factors which must enter
into one's calculations. There exist certain other ar
tificial causes which may have their temporary effect,
but when they have spent their strength the market
must necessarily find Its proper level, and that level
is founded upon a just ratio between costs and earn
ings. In the present instance many think that be
cause money is easy, and is apt to be so during the
near future, that stocks are going up " ad infinitum,"
regardless of all other Influences. This Is surely very
unreasonable. Easy money cannot repair the dam
ages produced by the very severe past winter; it can
not till the thousands of acres which would have been
plowed and planted last fall but for the early advent
of the winter: it cannot give us an early spring for
the sowing, which was nearly completed this time Inst
year, whereas this year our farmers have not yet
turned a furrow; It cannot replace Into the coffers of
the various railroads the vast sums expended to keep
their tracks open, nor will it give to them, the money
they should have accumulated since the first of the
year, but which they could not make because their
lines were absolutely snow-bound; It cannot revivify
the vast herds of cattle that have perished this winter
and now lie burled under many snow-drifts on tho
plains. These facts are vital points they are the
stern realities that sooner or later will be felt
in the market Easy money may make the
future look bright and rosy, but it cannot
reconstruct the past, and on the past depends entirely
the statements and dividends of the time being, and
consequently the existing prices. This must not be
regarded as a prediction of lower prices. Wc would
merely warn persons not to place too much confidence
in the power of easy money to advance prices to fab
ulous figures. Many other Influences are to be con
sidered. As yet there has been no movement on the part of
the national banks to restore their circulations. All
the furore raised at the time this subject was pending
was Instigated entirely for effect, the question really
having no practical bearing on the market. It is prob
able that some of the banks wiU not retrace the steps
they have taken in this matter, It being believed that
they retired their circulations as a simple matter of
business policy, and entirely irrespective of the action
ofCongrcssonthe funding bill. The others who re
tired for a different reason (the passage of the funding
bill) will resume their circulations; but as this will be
done gradually In small amounts, it will probably
have no effect on the markets
