Jewels at Work. The session to-day was one of mingled pleasure and Borrow with the Panel. The pleasures consisted chiefly in the enjoyment of eath other's "recounts" of the vacation season and planning out the winter campaign. The sorrow was over the doparture of a visiting statesman now of Virginia, but many years the jovial friend and custodian of the funds of the members as the obliging Cashier of their bank of deposit. lie was to steam on the Shenandoah and the delay of that ship on account of heavy freights prolonged the parting scene. - ' Should any surprise at ?he allusion of "banks of deposits, among the members be expressed by any one we would say that jewels generally keep large bank accounts with mostly small entries, as they are not forgetful of the early lesson taught them that, "modesty is a virtue that greatly adorneth a female, and in the opinion of the Panel, no less appli cable to a jewel." The Panel therefore could bo but sorely grieved at the de parture of he who had with so much kindness, constructed and directed the course of toeiv financial operations in the past after a rief visit to the corner. " He carries with him the hearty good wishes of all , the Jewels both as to health and prosperity in his new home in Norfolk ' . While on the subject of banks, the sale of the bank property was considered and appeared as well as that of the Lodge property further up the street Another source or pleasure was in meeting of his Honor the Mayor out on the.corner after a brief illness; and. the news that the Jones county convention went for the penitentiary authorities without gloves, in the series of resolu tions passed by that body. The Palel regard this as the most difi cult of all the questions of the day. The authorities can't be frightened bj a tniru or tiie penitentiary as they are already there, and as to the alarm of the Governor about tho unhealthfulness of tqe locality of the Quaker Bridge Road, they wish to remind him that tho "Po tomac Flats" are distressingly danger ous, to unaCcliniated persons about Washington.

He had. been now two hours and a half on the pad, and we could tell, as we saw him mount a log, his eyes flash ing, his hair bristling, his short tail lash ing, "as doubting to return or fly," his race ot existence was run. As we raised the view hallo his tail dropped again, which he was elevating as a signal for combat, and he dropped himself from the log with weak, unsteady steps.
