Now nnd Then.

Facts arc sometimes ugly things to get
round. Whom the Davenport Gazette tail,
about nominating and eleoting Carl Schurr ID
the Governorship Of Wisconsin. il seems 10
have forgotten that the Republican, of that
State nominated him, two years ago. for Lien.
tenant Governor, and beat him badly. The
leaders undertook to play "smart" az the
Gazette now proposes to do, and succeeded
only in proving the hollow. heartedness AZ
their sympathy for the foreign born citizen.
They elected Randall, their candidate for
Governor, but left poor Schurz long vay
behind his ticket, and turned him out to praas
with . lea In his ear,'' as big as a South
American beetle. They showed their love
Tor him as q cat shows its love for bull ter
rler, TO Witty scratching" him flour
nal.
AS 10 quite common, in the above article
the Journal talks with more zeal than sense
more regard for party than for truth. The
facts are these: The Wisconsin election two
years ago Was very close; with the exception
OF the candidates for Chief Justice, (Whitou.
Republican, being elected by rising OF Is. 900
majority irrespective Of politics,) ons-half Of
each ticket was elected. the Republican can
didate for Governor succeeding by II 8 votes.
Mr.. Schurs, with three of his associates. va,
defeated, and the four corresponding candi.
dates on the Democratic ticket we're elected.
But IN examination Of the vote shows that
be Was beaten by smaller majority than
either OF his native born associates. and that
he ran 26l votes above the average OF his
party ticket. So much for the assertion thu,
ne Was defsatsd BY ssscratohing,' and be-.
cause OF his foreign birth. On the Other
hand, while four OF the candidates on the
Dem ocratic ticket were elected, the two citi.
zens Of foreign birth on it-Habich Ger
MANI and McGarry (Irish) -were defeated.
the former By IS votes, having received ls2
isss than the average party vote, and the lat
ter BY Al votes, having rscsived 358 less
than tho average vote Of his party. So .ha.
while Mr. Sohurs Was not defeated on tbs
Republican ticket because Of his foreign ORR
gin, Habich and Notary Uere defeated on
the Democratic ticket because thew were M.
born IN America. "Facts are sometimes ur-
~ thiDgs to get around"

IL was my intention to meet the keeper,
if possible, and place the maniac in his
charge. Fortunately, on our way to the
yard, he came out OF one Of the cells; and,
having told him our plans, said he would
try his skill in jumping, too; and, taking
the hand Of the maniac, led him to the
door of his cell, and telling him to rest
before trying his exploit, closed the door
and turned the key on him
The unnatural strength which had
borne me up thus far could hold out no
longer, and, as sense of the danger |
had just escaped came upon me, my shat.
tered nerves gave way to the shock, and
| sank senselcss at the keepers feet
Three weeks hovered between life and
death, as delirious as mailman, and then
gradually my strength began to return.
But my nerves were completely unstrung;
| never shall be the person | once was,
and the mere mention Of o maniac makes
me shudder and think Of my perilous
adventure

"HAvE PATIENCE."

A youth and maid emo winter night,
Were sitting in the corner,
His name, we are told was Joshua White,
And hers was Patience Warner.
Not much the pretty maid said,
Beside tho young man sitting;
Her cheeks were flushed q rosy rod,
Her eyes bent on her knitting.
Nor could he guess what thoughts OF him
We're to her bosom h0cking,,
As her fair fingers, swift aud Slim.
Flew round and round the stocking.
While as for Joshua, bashful youth,
Hie words grew few aud fewer;
Though all the time, t0 tell the truth,
His chair edged nearer TO her.
Meantime her ball Of yarn gave out,
She knit so fast and steady;
And he must give his aid, no doubt.
To get another ready
He held the skein; of course the thread
Got tangled, Snarled and twisted;
"Have patience ~ cried the artless maid,
TO him who her assisted.
Good chance was this for tongue.tied cliurl
To shorten all palayer;
"ITave Patience" cried he, dearest girl
An,l may really have herr"
The deed wss done no more that night,
Clicked needles In the corner;
Aud she Is Mrs. Joshua White
That once was Patience Warner.
