TO THE MARQUIS OF DUFFERIN AND AVA.
I.
At times her steps are swift and rash; She moving, at her girdle clash The golden keys of East and West.
II.
The sceptres of her West, her East, To one, that ruling has increased Her greatness and her self-content.
III.
Their ruler. Your viceregal days Have added fulness to the phrase Of 'Gauntlet in the velvet glove.'
IV.
Not all, as honouring your fair fame Of Statesman, have I made the name A golden portal to my rhyme:
V.
From me and mine, how dear a debt We owed you, and are owing yet To you and yours, and still would owe.
VI.
And drew him over sea to you— He fain had ranged her thro' and thro', To serve her myriads and the State,—
VII.
And on thro' many a brightening year, Had never swerved for craft or fear, By one side-path, from simple truth;
VIII.
And caught her chaplet here—and there In haunts of jungle-poison'd air The flame of life went wavering down;
IX.
And lay on that funereal boat, Dying, 'Unspeakable' he wrote 'Their kindness,' and he wrote no more;
X.
And now the Was, the Might-have-been, And those lone rites I have not seen, And one drear sound I have not heard,
XI.
Not there to bid my boy farewell, When That within the coffin fell Fell and flash'd into the Red Sea,
XII.
And alien stars. To question, why The sons before the fathers die, Not mine! and I may meet him soon;
XIII.
Nor settles into hueless gray, My memories of his briefer day Will mix with love for you and yours.

Deming's Appeal
A motion has been made on behalf of Deming to reinstate this case upon the calendar. The suit was originally instituted in the Court of Claims. A judgment was rendered in favor of the United States, and the plaintiff brought the case into this court by appeal. That case and the case of O. B. and O. S. Latham v. The United States, also brought into this court by appeal from the judgment of the Court of Claims, were supposed to involve the question of the constitutional validity of the paper circulation issued by the United States, known as legal tender notes. On the 1st of April, during this term, both these cases were set for argument on the 11th of that month. On that day the argument was postponed until the 18th of April. The hearing was further postponed to the 20th of April. On that day the counsel for the Lathams and the counsel of Deming united in a written motion that both appeals should be dismissed.
The court recognizing the right of the counsel to have this done, thereupon dismissed the appeals. No reason was given for this step, and no explanation was made by either counsel, except the statement that they did not wish further to trouble the court in relation to the cases. The court continued to sit until the 30th of April. The long vacation then commenced. No motion was made prior to that time by Deming, to set aside the dismissal of his appeal. On the 5th of May the mandate of this court was sent to the Court of Claims to carry the judgment into execution. This motion was filed on the 7th of November, instant. It appears by the affidavit of Deming that he was aware of the dismissal very shortly after the order was made. This must necessarily have been so. It was announced in the proceedings of the court published the next day. Nothing is produced from his counsel who made the motion. Deming states in his affidavit, that the counsel acted without his knowledge or consent. Granting this to be so, his silence after the facts came to his knowledge, must be held to amount to acquiescence and ratification. The dismissal of the appeal left the judgment of the Court of Claims in favor of the United States in full force. They can sustain no prejudice by the overruling of this motion. We therefore lay out of view, as an element to be considered, the consent of the Attorney-General that the order of dismissal shall be rescinded.
The motion is addressed to the discretion of the court. Under the circumstances, we are all of the opinion that it ought to be.
DENIED.

156 U.S. 574
Corinne Mill Canal Stock Company v. Johnson
The grant to the railroad company was not of all the odd-numbered sections within 20 miles of its line of definite location, but of those sections subject to certain exceptions. Proof that the road had been located and completed, and that the tracts claimed were odd-numbered sections within the 20-mile limit, was not sufficient to establish title in the company. The evidence must go further, and the burden was on the plaintiff to show that they were not of the lands excepted. Land-Grant Co. v. Dawson, 151 U.S. 586, 14 Sup. Ct. 458.
Now, the defect in this record which is fatal to the case of the plaintiff in error is that nowhere is it shown that all the testimony received on the trial is preserved. Under such circumstances, we are not at liberty to assume that there was in evidence a patent, or other instrument, of itself working a transfer of the legal title from the government to the railroad company, or evidence of any character removing all doubt as to the matter of exceptions, nor, on the other hand, that there was not testimony which conclusively established the existence of some one or more of those exceptions.
Take for illustration the question whehter these were mineral lands. The grant, in terms, excepted such lands from its operation. There was no evidence of any adjudication by the land department, either through the issue of a patent or otherwise, that they were nonmineral lands. Barden v. Railroad Co., 154 U.S. 288, 14 Sup. Ct. 1030. While there was, on the part of the plaintiff, some testimony, of a general character, tending to show that the lands were grazing lands, and that no mineral had ever been discovered in them, yet, for aught that appears, there may have been overwhelming evidence that mines had in fact been opened and worked in them, or that there had been an express adjudication by the land department that they were mineral lands, and excepted from the grant. And so of other exceptions.
The presumptions are all in favor of the rulings of the trial court. And, before it can be adjudged that it erred in instructing that the plaintiff had failed in its proof of title, the record must affirmatively show that the title was in fact proved; and that, as we have seen, includes proof that the lands were not within the exceptions named in the statute.
The supreme court of the territory, whose judgment we are reviewing, did not err in refusing, upon such a record, to disturb the decision of the trial court that the plaintiff had not established its title to the land. The judgment is therefore affirmed.

United States Supreme Court
156 U.S. 574
Corinne Mill Canal Stock Company v. Johnson
This was an action brought by the plaintiff in error (plaintiff below) in the district court of the First judicial district of Utah, to recover possession of certain real estate. A trial before the court and a jury resulted in a verdict and judgment for defendant, which judgment was, on appeal, affirmed by the supreme court of the territory. 7 Utah, 327, 26 Pac. 922.
The contention of plaintiff was that the lands were within the grant made by the acts of congress of July 1, 1862 (12 Stat. 489), and July 2, 1864 (13 Stat.), to aid in the construction of a railroad from the Missouri river to the Pacific Ocean, and that, by virtue of the admitted completion of the road, the title to them had passed to the Central Pacific Railroad Company, under whom it claimed. The statement on motion for a new trial and appeal, signed by the trial judge, which is substantially the equivalent of a bill of exceptions, does not contain any patent from the government for the lands, nor does it purport to contain all the testimony offered on the trial. The trial court, in its instructions to the jury, expressed the opinion that the plaintiff had failed to prove any title, but, while expressing such opinion, submitted to them the question of the statute of limitations. The views of the supreme court of the territory are summed up in these two paragraphs:
'In this case, no evidence having been offered that the railroad ever obtained a patent for the lands in dispute, nor that it filed its map showing its line as definitely located within the time provided by the law, nor any proof as to the time when said railroad was completed, nor that the lands were not within any of the exceptions or reservations provided in the statute, we think plaintiff failed to show its title, and that there was no error in the instruction given by the court to the jury.
'The trial court submitted to the jury the issue of the statute of limitations raised in defendant's answer, and this is assigned as error, upon the ground that there was no evidence tending to support this issue. We have examined the evidence contained in the record, and while it does not purport to contain all the evidence in the case, yet, from the evidence set out in the printed transcript, we think no error was committed in this respect, and the judgment of the district court is affirmed.'
John A. Marshall, C. W. Bennett, and Jeremiah M. Wilson, for plaintiff in error.
O. B. Hallam, for defendant in error.
Mr. Justice BREWER, after stating the facts in the foregoing language, delivered the opinion of the court.

United States Supreme Court
152 U.S. 405
Corinne Mill Canal Stock Company v. Toponce
This was an action by Alexander Toponce against the Corinne Mill, Canal & Stock Company to recover money. There was a verdict and judgment for plaintiff, which was affirmed by the territorial supreme court. 24 Pac. 534. To review this judgment, defendant sued out this writ of error.
The facts in this case are as follows: On June 9, 1888, the defendant in error, as plaintiff, commenced his action in the district court of the county of Weber, in the territory of Utah. His complaint consisted of five counts,-the first, for moneys paid out for the defendant; the second, for feeding and caring for certain stock of the defendant; the third, for his services as general manager of the defendant; the fourth and fifth, respectively, a claim for work and labor, and one for board alleged to have been due from defendant to Lea Owsley, and by him assigned to plaintiff.
The defendant answered, denying all but the claim in the fourth count of the complaint, and pleading also certain counterclaims. The case went to trial before a jury, which returned both a special and a general verdict, and on such verdicts judgment was rendered, March 19, 1889, in favor of the plaintiff, for the sum of $11,339.56. Subsequently, on July 12, 1890, this judgment was affirmed by the supreme court of the territory, and thereupon defendant sued out this writ of error.
C. W. Bennett and John A. Marshall, for plaintiff in error.

   French men of science tell us that love is a microbe, a bacillus, like the busy little beasts who bring us small-pox and typhoid and consumption and all other ill things. It is a comfortable theory, and explains much. . . . But being for the first time in the Presence of the disease, he could not diagnose it. He said, “I am interested”—and flattered himself on his scientific attitude. Whereas he should have said, “I am in love,” and abased himself before the commonest of all disorders.

In the meantime, Springrove was pacing up and down the arrival platform of the railway-station. Half-past eight o'clock--the time at which Owen's train was due--had come, and passed, but no train appeared.
'When will the eight-thirty train be in?' he asked of a man who was sweeping the mud from the steps.
'She is not expected yet this hour.'
'How is that?'
'Christmas-time, you see, 'tis always so. People are running about to see their friends. The trains have been like it ever since Christmas Eve, and will be for another week yet.'
Edward again went on walking and waiting under the draughty roof. He found it utterly impossible to leave the spot. His mind was so intent upon the importance of meeting with Owen, and informing him of Cytherea's whereabouts, that he could not but fancy Owen might leave the station unobserved if he turned his back, and become lost to him in the streets of the town.
The hour expired. Ten o'clock struck. 'When will the train be in?' said Edward to the telegraph clerk.
'In five-and-thirty minutes. She's now at L----. They have extra passengers, and the rails are bad to-day.'
At last, at a quarter to eleven, the train came in.
The first to alight from it was Owen, looking pale and cold. He casually glanced round upon the nearly deserted platform, and was hurrying to the outlet, when his eyes fell upon Edward. At sight of his friend he was quite bewildered, and could not speak.
'Here I am, Mr. Graye,' said Edward cheerfully. 'I have seen Cytherea, and she has been waiting for you these two or three hours.'
Owen took Edward's hand, pressed it, and looked at him in silence. Such was the concentration of his mind, that not till many minutes after did he think of inquiring how Springrove had contrived to be there before him.

Then Cytherea felt her way amid the darkness of the room till she came to the head of the bed, where she searched for the bell-rope and gave it a pull. Her summons was speedily answered by the landlady herself, whose curiosity to know the meaning of these strange proceedings knew no bounds. The landlady attempted to turn the handle of the door. Cytherea kept the door locked. 'Please tell Mr. Manston when he comes that I am ill,' she said from the inside, 'and that I cannot see him.'
'Certainly I will, madam,' said the landlady. 'Won't you have a fire?'
'No, thank you.'
'Nor a light?'
'I don't want one, thank you.'
'Nor anything?'
'Nothing.'
The landlady withdrew, thinking her visitor half insane.
Manston came in about five minutes later, and went at once up to the sitting-room, fully expecting to find his wife there. He looked round, rang, and was told the words Cytherea had said, that she was too ill to be seen.
'She is in number twelve room,' added the maid.
Manston was alarmed, and knocked at the door. 'Cytherea!'
'I am unwell, I cannot see you,' she said.
'Are you seriously ill, dearest? Surely not.'
'No, not seriously.'
'Let me come in; I will get a doctor.'
'No, he can't see me either.'
'She won't open the door, sir, not to nobody at all!' said the chambermaid, with wonder-waiting eyes.
'Hold your tongue, and be off!' said Manston with a snap.
The maid vanished.
'Come, Cytherea, this is foolish--indeed it is--not opening the door. . . . I cannot comprehend what can be the matter with you. Nor can a doctor either, unless he sees you.'
Her voice had trembled more and more at each answer she gave, but nothing could induce her to come out and confront him. Hating scenes, Manston went back to the sitting-room, greatly irritated and perplexed.
And there Cytherea from the adjoining room could hear him pacing up and down. She thought, 'Suppose he insists upon seeing me--he probably may--and will burst open the door!' This notion increased, and she sank into a corner in a half-somnolent state, but with ears alive to the slightest sound. Reason could not overthrow the delirious fancy that outside her door stood Manston and all the people in the hotel, waiting to laugh her to scorn.
