Am! I will dream as I hear your voice,
Sweet and tender, and stainer and clear,
Like your mother's voice, when theft songs she

none ago when we both were young -
You are so like her, dear.
Take down her harp and touch the strings;
Too long, too long have they silent been;
My heart has been full of hurry and strife,
And the care and the worry of mange life -
I long for the songsagain. •-

Unlucky Cotton.
Speaking of the favored specelat srs
who contrived to run cotton through he
-lines during the war the Washing on
Herald remarks :
It is a curious fact that the wealth b-
tained in this way always brought W th
it misfortune, culminating in finan ial
wreck. and of all those who made se eh
t normous amounts of money in theay
mentioned not one has been able to k ep
it till, now. The two firms most o-
miuent in this trade - were Ho t,
Sprague & Co, of New York, rid
Sprague Brothers & Co., at Providence,
Rhode Island. Owing, it is said, to he
influence the last-named firm ad
with Mr. Chase, it obtained permits fr m
the Secretary of the Treasury to p r -
chase cotton wherever it could be fou d,
and the army commanders were obli ed
to protect thee agents whenever cal ed
on to do se. Their main agent in
fainiaiana was a gentleman from be
north who a 'few years before the -'ar
had married a wealthy lady, ownin a
eery large estate in the best cot on
region of that State. He was .thoron /li-
ly familiar with the section occupied by
the Union Army during the Red River
episode, -and perhaps no betterperson
could have been selected for the pan he. In eighteen months the great
purpose
than
New York firm and Rhode Island spin-
ners purchased nearly 10,000 bales along
the Mississippi and Red Rivers and their
tributaries and !brought it safely out,
sending to Liverpool all they them-
selves did not ! require. At this time
the persons named really had a monop-
oly of the business, and it was estimated
that, they niaele 500 per cent. profit
in their cotton transactions. But they
heaped Up riches not knowing who
should gather them. Their troubles be-
gan at this very time, and misfortune
pursued` them with * a relentless un -
changeableness that knew no variance.
The senior partner, Mr. Edwin Hoyt,
died worse than bankrupt after making
$5,000,000, and the curse seems to have
descended to his children. The Spragues
have made and lost three great fortunes.
Their history, in all its various ramificas
tions, is tete well known to .require any
extended mention.
