come in conflict with the general rule,
which forbids the payment Of two salaries
at the same time to the same person, yet
you could not be entitled to it, for the
reason that you became Superintendent

from the duties appertaining to thcm.-

the expenditure was properly made, it
will be paid, should Congress make an
appropriation for that purpose. .
You say, "the Department has UfteM
manifested its approval of the manage

The reverse Of this is the fact. This OfEice

With his little cushioned chair;
And my heart, like them, was vacant,
For hope had witLCrcd there.

And guard it well with care;

it took the shape OF castle and built up
spires and battlcmcnts till il looked a.
though some great intelligence had moul-
died the vapor into form. 1t was o gor-
gcous little st ucturc, and the last light
Of day came up from the west and played
about it, because it was too glorious and
spiritual Il creation to be hid in the folds
of night. But the trees below began to
bend their stately heads, and the vapOFy
towers rcclcd and fell, the walls tumbled
down among the trees, and the phantom
castle went out with the day.
--A-Aower peeped out tilnorOusly- from
among the rocks, it was not the gayest
dressed Of all Flora's favoritcs, but Il was
the first born of the spring time, and as Il
lay upon the frozen bosom OF earth, the
Hover looked innocent and beautiful In
the evening It was dead; beast had tFOd-
den upon it, and it too, died with the day.
A young child leaned her head on her
mothers breast and went to sleep. Had
a snow flnke fallen on her brow Il would
have lost none ofits chastity, and the mo-
thcr looked down on the sweet face as it
rose and fell with her own breathing, and
felt as cxultant and triumphant as though
jewel had fallen from constellation in
the heavens and sparklcd at her feet
But in the evening, when the big trees
lost their shadows and stood like grim
and silent scntincls over a spectral camp,
little Sinlcss soul followed an angel away,
and left the broken castle. and the dead
flower, and the mothers hopes, in the ru.
in of that day.
