H. H., In Scribner, for September. The'goHen rod is yellow; The corn Is turning brown; The trees In apple orchards With trait are bending down. i The gentian's bluest fringes Are eurting to the sun; In dusty pods the milkweed Its hidden silk has spun. The sedges flaunt their harvest In every meadow nook: And asters by the brook side, Make asters in the brook. From dewy lanes at morning The grapes' sweet odors rise; At noon the roads all flutter With yellow butterflies. By all these lovely tokens September days are here, With summer's best, of weather, And autumn's best of cheer. But none of all this beauty Which floods the earth and air Is unto me the secret Which makes September fair. 'Tis a thing which I remember; To name It thrills me yet; One day of one September I never can forget OBSERVATIONS. Dennis Kearney Is now called "the great Pacifi cator."

The Turning of tne Tide. Baltimore Sun. The export of gold from England and France to the United States is exciting discussion in the English papers. The Times does not expect an immediate ad vance in the rate of discount which is now as low in London as from one to one and a-quarter per cent but con cedes that there may be contingencies which will stiffen the market. Apart from the probability nof larger exports of bullion from London, it is estimated by the Times that the organization in Paris: of a multitude of speculative com panies, more or Jess unreal,; creates in London great uneasiness, where any re action ftom an inflation' movement in Fraflce; would tie severely felt. The London sFiiwTjatfr, while showing that tho present -export -of bullion to the Unrtd States can be met by the bullion imports, , is , of u opinion that the shii ments of bonds and of other commodi ties "will be quite inadequate to settle, for the time, , the ; enormous balance which must be accumulating in respect to American food." When the bills f or the late supplies, which are drawn at sixty days,- tall due, the extent of the demand for bullion will be better known. ' In some quarters it is claimed that demand from the United States for gold in-payment for ; breads tuffs will reach, two millions of pounds sterling, (ten millions of doJlai-i) , Hew much more wi) be drawn for, il is impossible to say j for the English harvest reports, in view of the heavy losses sustained by the recent rains, continue to grow more and more discouraging.
