Power OF ATToRSEY.-When the widow
Ames had been notified that her share of the
Paul Jones prize money would be paid her
upon presenting herself at the Dummer Bank,
she debated in her own mind-though the de.
bate was never reported whether she should
90 herself or give power of attorney to some
one else to receive the eleven dollars and sixty
two cents that was her share. In this strait she
called on Mrs. Partington, whom she knew had
authorized a person to settle the Beanville
estate for her, when the Beanville railroad had
driven her from the homestead. $50 yourself
dear said the old lady, bringing the poker
down emphatically upon the bail of the tea
kettle, as she was clearing out the ashes from
the stove, "dont trust nobody but yourself
for-(raising the poker)-if you give anybody
power Of eternity depend upon il you won't
never see the end of it, The poker fell again
upon the harmless tea-kettle, WHICH seemed to
sing out with reproach for the outrage, and Ike,
who was looking into the back window with
his nose fattened against the glass like piece
OF putty, wondered if Mrs. Ames wasn't sitting
on favorite piece Of spruce gum Of his, and
whether it wouldn't stick her TO the chair so
that she couldn't get up. 1t showed that the
boy had reflective turn Of mind.

From the Hamilton lohiol telegram.

The little dipped cande-sixteen to the
pound-which casts its sickly rays over the
pages of the Rossvile Sentinel, hickers wickedly
in its socket this week, and emits Just enough
light to render darkness visible. Under present
circumstances we would not advise it to repeat
the effort which it made, last week, to substi-
tute itself for the centre of the solar system
The times are not favorable to the success of
such an enterprise.
1t is unsafe, moreover, for this editorial lu-
minary to get excited. The man who cannot
correctly spell words of one syllable, in his
cool moments, should be very careful in the
use Of trisylables when "fred with indigna-
ton" "A little fluid extract Of valerian, taken
with small doses of spelling book, would go
far to restore his rufiled equanimity and pre-.
vent him from making himself ridiculous in
the future.
In long rigmarole, which is but repetition
Of the assertion that the election Of Beverly
Tucker was designed as thrust at the admin
istration, the editor of the paper over the river
wants to know whether we did not write an
article condemning the first letter of COL Vel.
Ter, to the New York meeting, and suppress
it upon the appearance of his letter TO the
Washington Union. We not only published
both Of the letters of Colonel Weller, but we
expressly denounced ue resolunohs ADOPTED by
the meeting to which his first letter was ad-
dressed. The letter of Col. Weller did nothing
more than disapprove of certain appointments,
but the resolutions adopted by the meeting, to
which it was read, called for dissolution Of the
cabinet Fools generally rush into extremes,
and we have no more respect for those who
would break up the cabinet, because Of certain
appointments than we have for those who
would. read out Of the party tried democratic
Senators because they do not approve Of
certain other appointments. The both belong
to the same category and possess about the
same amount of political sagacity II is more
than probable that Col. Weller, when he ad.
dressed his letter to the New York meeting, was
as ignorant OF the nature Of the resolutions

AN EAGLES PLUME.
BY MISS JULIA PLEAsANTs.

An eagles plume an eagles plume
How bravely hath it battled back
The rolling clouds, the tempest's gloom,
And swept the suns meridian track.
A thing Of air, il proudly spurned
The cartb-born storm. the lions glare,
And like thought, forever turned
In starward triumph through the air.
An eagles plume in whirlng fight,
Swift as clarion note, it rose
From some untrodden mountain height
Ofpurple mists and shining SHOWS.
And far across the desert sky, ~
Der stretching plains of azure dearth,
II bore the camel-bird on high
herald from the lowly earth.
An eagles plume the skies grow dark,
But DER the sea il feetly sped
The sea, where many gallant bark
Before the driving tempest fled.
And through the zenith, blue and gold,
1t scared above the sulphrous cloud,
While fast the rushing waters rolled
Ger stem, and stern, and swelling shroud.
An eagles plume an eagles plume
1t burst through floods of fiery rain,
Where culverins crash, and cannons boom
Broke madly DER the battle plain.
A starry standard foaied there
Above ITS folds 1t quiverlng hung,
And loudly on the leaden air
The deafenng shout of victory" rung.
An eagle plume from Freedoms wing!
II skirts the hills of northern Maine,
And bathes in every golden spring
On Caliiornia's mountain chain.
II rises, like glorious star.
Where wild Atlantic surges roar,
And flies in swooping circles far
Along the lone Pacific shore.
An eagles plume would that my soul
Might burst as chainless and as free
Above the stormy clouds that roll
Across this life's tempestuous sea-.
And oh when life's dark goal is won,
That it might spurn the vanquished iomb
And soar beyond the flaming sun,
An eagle plume, an eagle plume!
