The CONFESSIONAL cloud was seen to pas

The lustre forsook her dark eyes. Her spirl
seemed troubled
"Triumphs the lily now on that young cheek
Where bloomed the rose.''
Ten times that evening did Harvey impo1
tune her to acquaint him with the cause Of BID
sadness but not word escaped her lips
Sadly and family she sat
And now and then a sigh she stole,
And tears began TO flow.
"Breathes there wretch so base as to injur,

THE MONROE DocrRINE-As the Monro
Doctrine is the only thing upon which on
members of Congress agreed and as the Mexica
question may involve us in a war in defense
this doctrine. we put on record its origin,
the following extract from President Monroe
annual message, December ., 1928:
The political system of the allied powers
essentially different in this respect from tbs
of America. This difference proceeds frol
that which exists in their respective Covert
ments Add TO the defense Of our own, whic
has been achieved with so much loss of bloc
and treasure, and matured by the wisdom
our most enlightened citizens, and under whic
we have enjoyed unexamped felicity, this who
nation is devoted. We owe 1t, therefore,
cand0r and the amicable relations existing b
tween the United States and those powers, I
declare that we should consider any attempt O
their part to extend their system TO any porto
Of this hemisphere, as dangerous to our peac
and safety. With the existing colonies or o
pendencies of any European power we have nj
nterfered, and shall not interfere. But th
Governments who have declared their ind,
pendence and maintained it, and, on just priI
ciples, acknowledged, we could 20, view an
interposition for the purpose of expressing then
or controlling in any other manner their destin
by any European power, in any other ligt
than as the manifestations of an unfriendl
disposition towards the United States.

VAST WEALTH OF CRGsUs.-In our iottings
of millionalres, it would seem as though these
pages were incomplete without some data con-
corning him whose name has for centuries and
generations-fresh down to the present day
furnished the standard representative Of vast
wealth. Cfnsus hourished about the middle
Of the SIKH century 3. c. The prodigious
wealth which he had inherited had been in
creased by the tribute of conquered nations, by
the confscation of great estates, and by the
golden sands Of Pactolus. Perhaps some idea
of the extent of his wealth may be formed from
the rich votive offerings which he is known to
have deposited in the temples CT the gods.
IIerodotus himself saw the ingots of solid gold,
six palms long, three broad and one deep,
which, to the number of one hundred and sew
enteen, were laid up in the treasury at Delphi.
lie also saw in various parts of Greece the
following offerings all in gold, which had been
deposited in the temples by the same opuent

size a wine bowl of about the same weight as

posa estate is as prolific of lawsuits as sand
bank of feas, and periodically during The pad
six years, suits have been instituted by partid
who are desrous of getting hold of the rc|
mines which are known to abound on the estatI
The last one has just been commenced in tll
District Court, and is for an amount of mone|
which would make handsome fortunes for
large number of poor men. In 1857, John
Fremont, being hard up for capital with whid
to develop his mines, issued three hundrd
bonds for one thousand dollars each the bond
bearing interest at the rate of ten per cent. 4
order to make the bonds salable, mortga9
was made upon the estate to secure their pay
ment The bonds were taken up. and MessrI
j. j Dixwell, F. Haven, and T. w. Pierce, 4
the city of Boston, appointed trustees of ttI
estate, to secure the payment of the principd
and interest of the bonds. The trustees, b
power invested in them, appointed Maurid
Ketchum, j. W. Pryor and George OpdyA
their successors, who, finding that neither til
principal nor interest of the bonds has bee|
paid have instituted suit in the Fourth Distrid
Court against Fremont for the sum of fV
hundred and seveDty-seven thousand dollar
with interest at the rate of ten per cent, anI

THE POOR WOOD-HAULER

Do you think OF the forty years ago,
When you and were smaller,
And the Geld, dead man that was found il the snow
Whom We'll call the poor wood hauler?
With manly heart he was ba-terins wood,
From the home where love had bound him,
To deal with an honest hand the food
To the flock that cuddled round him.
When that staff we leaned upon was broke
In that awful hour, my brother
We had nothing left TO lean upon,
Bat God and Roman mother.
But that mothers form is trembling now,
(Though her spirit is strong as eyer)
And is tottering down with feeble step
To the banks Of stormy river.
Hark hear voice on the rivers roar
'Tis voice that seems TO call her
And it comes from that man on the misty shore
Oh, I see-'tis the poor wood-hauler.

The ORDERS CT Col. DAHLGREy-It will
be remembered that a short time ago ii was
stated that the rebels had caused the orders
which were found on the body of Col. Dahlgren
after he was killed near Richmond to be pho
tographed in order to be used as evidence. Il
now appears that the rebels desire that their
authenticity may be officially established, and
therefore General Lee. under a flag of truce,
sent letter TO General Meade, inclosing pho
tographed copies of the alleged orders, and
asking whether they were sanctioned by Col
Dahlgren's superior officer, and approved by
the Government. General Meade referred the
matter to General Fitzpatrick, who denied that
they were the instructions be gave Col. Dahl
gren before he parted with him during the raid
The reply was communicated TO Lee, and Gen.
Meade also replied that be had given no iu-
structions to the late cavalry expedition not
warranted By the necessities of their situation
and sanctioned By the usages OF warfare.
