The Printer is the Adjutant of
Thought, and this explains the mystic
ries of the wonderful word that can
kindle hope as no song can-that can
warm heart as no hope-that word
"we," with hand in-hand warmth in
it, for the Author and the Printer are
Engineers together. Engineers indeed.
When the little Corsican bombarded
Cadiz at the distance of five miles, it
was deemed the very triumph of engi-
neering. But what is that paltry range
to this whereby they lombard the ages
yet to be?
There at the case he stands and
marshals into line the forces armed
for truth, clothed in Immortality and
English. And what can be more no
bic than the equipment of Thought in
sterling Saxon-Saxon with the ring of
spear on shield therein, and that com
missioning it when we are dead, to
move gradually on to the last sylla-
bic of recorded time" It's is to win
a victory from death, foF this has no
dying in it. ~
The printer is called Iaborer, and
the office he performs is toll. Oh, it is
not work, but sublime rite he is per-
forming, when he thus sightsn the
engine, that is to fling a worded truth
grander curve than missiles ere befo1c
describle-fling it into the bosom d
an age unborn. He throws off his coat
indeed; We but wonder the rather,
that he does not put his shoes from off
his feet, for the place where he stands
is holy ground. -
A little song was uttered somewhere
long ago, it wandered through the
twilight feebler than star; it died
upon the ear. But the printer takes it
up where it was lying there in the. ST.
lence like wounded bird, and he
equips it anew with wings, and he
sends it forth from the preserving ark,
and it flies ON into the future with the
olive branch of peace; aud .around the
world with melody, like the dawning of
a Spring morning.-Bayard Taylor.

A correspondent of the New York
Tribune throws some light upon the
cause of the burning of the Crystal
Palace in New York, in the following
communication to that paper:
SIR:-No doubt the. name of the in
cendiary that set fire to the Qate) Crys-
tai Palace, and who is reported to have
been dressed in black, would be inter-
esting to many of the sufferers by that
disastrous event, and believing l am
correct in my deductions, / have no
hesitancy in saying his name was Gut
tG PerchQ.
A few moments before the alarm of
fire was given, l was standing on the
lower floor, in a position which COM
manded a direct view of the north
nave, and my attention was turned that
way by hearing some one observe
"They are going to light the gas;"
and Immediately after | heard the cry
of "F'ire! fre!" looked at it, and
supposed it would not amount to much,
as / expected the building was fire.
proof, and that portion on fire, would
be easily subdued. These thoughts
had scarcely crossed my mind, when ]
saw streams of fire, like snakes, run
ming in all directions through the
building, and setting it on fire nearly
as fast as man could run. The col.
OF of the smoke, the intensity of flame
and two or three small explosions
forces the idea to my mind that to save
a few dollars, the gas pipes of the
Crystal Palace had only been gutts
percha, instead of wrought iron tubes
and that shortly after the gas was
turned on, there was leak somewhere
in the rear of the north nave, which sci
fire to the gas tubes, and their being
composed of highly infamable materi
al, and heavily charged with gas, wa.
the true and legitimate cause of this la
mentable disaster.
With the above ideas as to the cause
of the fire, yesterday visited the ru
ins, and, as l expected, could not fint
any iron gas tubes, or other evidence
save the above, and shall take it fo
granted such was the case, until l hea
a better. r. GRAHAM.

Who is Jefferson? The Niles Re
publican as it factiously styles itself,
and several other Lecompton, Pro-
Slavery Locofoco papers, have pub
lished bitter attack upon Republican
men, and Republican principles, signed
" Jefferson" and when the paper first
named produced it, the Niles Repu6li-
can made the following editorial COM
ment: %
"See an article on the outside Of this
paper signed Jefferson by repub-
lican." ."-Niles Rep.
In reply to this statement, it will on
ly be needful to say to the people who
reside respectively in Oakland, Wayne,
and Cass counties, that Jefferson"
the self styled Republican, is no other
than Samuel N. CAN'T, who was q
fierce and bitter Locofoco in Oakland
county twenty years ago, and was
elected Justice of the Peace in the
township Of Pontiac, on the first Mon
day in April 1888, and held that Office
until he brought it into disrepute by
official misconduct. In 1910, Mr..
CAN'T removed to the city of De-
troit, and came out for Harrison, and
was active in making speeches, and
in abusing his former political as
sociates, and was elected Justice of
the Peace, in and for the county
of Wayne, from which Office he was
removed by Hon. John S. Barry, for
malfeasance In office, on the twenty
first day of June 1912 as appears by
the Executive records in the Office OF
the Secretary of State. Mr.. CAN'T,
as the Republicans of Cass county well
know, has been disorganizer, and has
for nearly year, styled himself a
Douglas Democrat, and has not for
that time acted with the Republican
party, but has exercised toward it, and
toward all good and true Republicans,
the most bitter and vindictive hostili-
ty.
Now, Republicans of Michigan, look
at the men and means by which the
National Pro-Slavery Administration,
through their Post Office and officials
are seeking to blind you to the true
issues which give vitality and impor-
tance to the present campaign. They
are seeking to draw you away from
your allegiance to the cause of human
freedom, by circulating false and base
statements, charging fraud upon your
public servants, concocted by your
bitterest foes, but purporting to come
from consience-stricken Republican.
1t is to traitors and renegsdes to whom
they resort for aid, and it is to forged
and manufactured testimony upon
which they depend te2@ 4s}lIis=atlfey

which she had intended to speak to
him-for she feared they would add to
his mental disquietude. During the
evening, she cleaned from him some
thing he said, the real cause of his as
pect. At once her thoughts commenced
running in new channel. BY a few
leading remarks, she drew her husband
into conversation on the subject OF
home expences, and the propriety OF
home restriction in various points.
Many things were mutually pronounced
superfuous, and easily to be dispensed
with; and before sleep fell soothingly
on the heavy eyelids of Mr.. Freeman
that night, an entire change in their
style Of living had been determined
upon-a change that would reduce
their expenses at least one-half
"I see a light ahead" were the
hopeful words of Mr. Freeman, as be
resigned himself to slumber.
With renewed strength of mind
and body and a confident spirit, he
went forth the next day-a day that he
had looked forward to with fear and
trembling. And it was only through
this renewed strength and confident
spirit that he was able to overcome the
difficulties that loomed up, mountair
high, before him. Home had proved
lis tower of strength-his walled city
Strengthened for the conflict, he had
gone forth again into the world, and

The Buffalo Express says, ga cor
respondent sends us a poem of consid-
cradle length in the Hiawatha measure
on the propriety and luxury of paying
the printer. We give the concluding
portions oft, for the benefit ofour city
contemporaries who are always nudg-
ing their patrons to pay up:'"
If you wish to go to Heaven f
To that place of peace and splendor-
Where no cruel thing will vex you,
Where no sin can ever enter,-
Pay the Printer for your paper. i..r -
Pay that tall and and handsome fellow chats us
Who has worked so hard to please YOU
Then at night when shadows gather, iif
Round your hearth and round your pillow. ia
And the ghosts of the departed,
Stand and becon at the doorway; -
You may laugh, and you may mock them, l
Saying to them, "Oh, We scapegoats,
Get ye back into the darkness o
Come not here again to yex mes
/ have done what best becomes me-
Paid that tall and handsome fellow,
For that great, that magic paper,
Paid him every cc7s owed him.'

By JOHN G. WHITTIER.


As o'er his furrowed fields which lie
Beneath a coldly dropping sky,
Yet chill with with winter melted snow,
The husbandman goeth forth to sow.
Thus, Freedom, on the bitter blast
The venturers of thy seed we east,
And tt ust to warmer sun and rain,
To swell the germ and fill the grain.
Who calls:thy glorious service hard?
Who deems it not its own reward!
Who, for trials, counts it less
A cause of praise and thankfulness.
1t may not be our lot to WELD
The sickle in the ripened field;
Nor ours to hear, on summer ewes,
The reaper's song among the sheaves.
Yet where our duty's task is wrought
In unison with Gods great thought,
The near and future blend in one,
And whatsoever is willed is done!
And ours the grateful service whence
Comes, day by day, the recompense;
The hope, the trust, the purpose stayed,
The fountain and the MONDAY shade.
And where this life the utmost span,
The only end and aim of man,
Better the toll of fields like these
Than waking dreams and slothful ease.
But life, though falling with our grain,
Like that revives and springs again;
And, early called, how blest are they,
Who wait heaven their harvest day!

Mr.. Douglas Chicago organ says
that he "displays the coolest courage" !"
Ifhis courage isn't cool now perhaps
the November elections will cool it.
The Washington correspondent of a
Boston paper says /" the Administration
will not throw to the Douglas men a
bone to pick" Oh, well, the poor fell
lows can pick their o,cn bones, we take
it. ~ ~
One of the Douglas editors in Illinois
SAYS that his candidate has shitherto
had difficult path to pursue" but that
he has "overcome all difficulties" and
that s'the high road lies at length in
full view before him." SO the Little
Giant, like footpad, is about betaking
himself to the higltacay.
Mr.. Douglas organ in Chicago
claims that he is still sovereign in
that State. But his kind of ''sover-
eighty is not popular"
Mr.. Douglas has evidently no fixed
principles, though he himself is Ger

Joseph X. Walker informs the editor OF
the Christian Adoocate, of Memphis,
that In Upton and Shelby counties,
Tennessee, the white oak trees are

hull something in the shape of wheat,
upon which the hogs are feeding and
thriving finely.
