BABY on the Porch.

Out on the porch, by the open door,
Sweet with roses and cool with shade,
Baby is creeping over the floor .
DSar little ~insome blue-eved maidl
All around her the shadows dance,
All above her the roses swing,
Sunbeams in the lattice glance,
Robins up in the branches sing.
Up at the blossoms her fingers reach,
Lisping her pleading in broken words,
Cooing away in her tender speech,
Songs like the twitteI of Nesting birds.
Creeping, creeping over the Hoor,
Soon my birdie will find her wings,
Fluttering out at the open door,
Into the wonderful world of things.
Bloom of roses and balm of dew,
Brooks that bubble and winds that call,
All things lovely, and glad, and new,
And the Father watching us over it all.

Tear

Tears, idle tears, know not what they mean
Tears from the depth of some divine despair
Rise in the heart aud gather to the eyes,
10 looking on the happy autumn fields,
And thinking of the days that are no more.
Fresh as the first beam gittering on a sail
That brings our friends up from tue outer world
Sad as the last which reddens over one
That sinks with all we loyesbelow the verge;
So sad, SO fresh the days that are no more.
All, sad and strange as in dark summer dawns
The earliest pipo Of halfawakened birds
To dying ears, When unto dying eyes
The easement slowly grows glImmerng square
So sad, 50 strange, the days mat are no more.
Dear as remembered kisses after death,
Aud sweet us tSose by hopeless fancy feigned
On lips that are for others; deep as love,
Deep as Hrst love, and wild With all regret;
U Death in Life, the days that are no more.

MATRIMONIAL DIFFIcuLTIEs IN HIGH LIFE.-
A St. Louis dispatch to the Cincinnati Gazette
contains the following:
g The morning papers contain some revela-
tions of a scandalous nature relating to Col.
Jas II. Blood, City Auditor, and, until recently,
President of the Fifth street K. i,road Company.
He is charged with being the husband Of three
living wives one OF whom is a Madame Hollardi
a woman who obtained con iderable noteriety
here as a clairvOyant physician, and who, It Is
said. by her wiles and fAscInauons, succeeded
in getting large sums of money from her victim.
Another Of his reputed wives is said to have
once been a servant in his family. The Colonei's 5
first wife, and with whom he has lived since
their marriage, is II daughter Of a clergyman u
| Massachusetts, aud is Il beautiful, Intelligent
and amiable lady, and bears AN irIepro tchaOle
character. This lady went with her husband
last Monday 10 Chicago, where they mutually
arranged for divorce. Thence the Colonel Is
said 10 have gone to New YORK, where he will
| sail for Mexico or South America, bankrupt IN
reputation and purse, and leaving behind a
eloud of gloom which rests heavily upon hls
family, Who are among our most Respectable
j people He was Colonel of the 9Th Missouri To-
fantry during the war, was brave officer, had
hosts OF friends, and succeeded in acquiring q
fortune of $50 900, nearly all of which, 1t Is be-
lieFed, be squandered upon Madame Hollard
So far as is at present known, his accounts Al
City Auditor were left in the proper shape

AS man, physically, tits said she was not intends
ed to be direct ruler IN Republican Govern
ment What an argument. Yet it passes for
argument, and is, indeed, the common reply to
a suggestion in favor of female suffrage. The
grand National rule, if the Constitution Of the
Union is to prescribe it, should be Every white
adult of the age of 81 shall have and enjoy the
elective franchise. Some who are now strenu-
ously insisting that all men in the South, OF the
African race, shall vote scout the idea of white
fem lie suffrage, and retail all the stale and
trashy filings against the proposition. No less a
man than John Stuart Mill declares his thorough
belief in the proprety of female suffrage, and
he announced this when recently canVassing
Westminster District for a seat in Parliament !
Henry Ward Beecher expresses his hope aud eou-
6deuce in the success OF a movement with this
object in view. II is evident to the careful and
candid observer that woman's right TO vote IS
approaching formal concession through the
laws that extend her privileges for conducting
business in her own name, and the general,
though tacit, admission of her "proper sphere

FAST LlrE.-The s. F. Dramatic Clironicl. tel

FAST LIFE.-The S. F. Dramatic Chronicle tells
vast deal of truth in the few words that follow
concerning fast life. 1t says:
Lives are worn out faster here the Pacific
coast than any where else, perhaps in the world
Men who come Of long-lIved families, and whose
fathers aud grSpd-fathers, uucIes aud aunts,
died at seventy and eighty, here drop ciE at forty
and forty five; fifty is here rare age to attain,
and sixty very rare. Sudden deaths, too, are
the rule, and not the exception. The diseases
that carry men off, are not, general thing,
fevers, consumption, contagious diseases, etc.
they ure diseases caused by oyerwOrk, fast hv-
ing, long continued excitement ; by Keeping the
machinery going too steadily, by lack of repose
or rest or quiet. A fire that is kept burning in
full blast soon burns out, and here we keep the
blower up all the time. it is true we have our
'recreations,' but they are not rest. Our en-
jOyments are as wearing as our work, for we
nave no calm or quiet enJUyments. trOm'th
rush OF business, We turn to the whirl Of pleas>
urc from wearing labor, to shatterlug excite
ments, sometimes to wasting dissipation. Body
or brain, and sometimes both, are kept on tue
strain. We go upon the high>pressure plan,
aud keep the steam up and the engine going
until the machinery suddenly gives out or the
boiler bursts Heart disease, brain disease, par
alysis, cerebral apopleky, short sharp, sudden
attacks that result from Over-strained nerves
lhtse are what sweep US away III Otuer " h'e
ong, it is requisite to live sloVLy and to live
naturally The strongest constitution must give
way prematurely under the influence of pres.
sure that is never relaxed, or an excitement that
is never remitted. AS We must die At some time,
it may seem Of little importance whether it be
ten or fifteen years sooner or later. But in re-
aity every premature death san unnatural and
violent death that interferes with that full de-
velopment which is the best happiness Of life /;
and besides there is no true happiness in the life
that is continual whirl, even while it lasts" 7"

Grain Market.

We clip the following from a California ex.
change, and invite the farmers of WallA Walla
valley to give it perusal, deeming its sugges-
tions fully as applicable to this locality as to
California
" Warmers who are now harvesting, and
who hAFe not disposed of their grain we would
respectfully suggest the impropriety Of tie great
haste manifested in selling their crops at the
present low rulings. From every indication
we believe that the price of breadstufs will rule
higher much niger, than at present. The grain
| crop in the East, as reported by reliable cor
respondents, public and privately, is almost en-
tirely total failure. A large amount will be
| needed there to supply the deficiency, and it
must come from California. Europe has no
grain TO spare, and but little If any surplus
exists on the South American coast. China will
demaut large increase in grain and -four trade
over The preceding year. Europe conVulsed
with war, will import largely to feed her fight
ing millions. This great demand for food must
he met from the American continent, and Cali
fornia and Oregon will be the chief source of
that supply. With these facts staring them in
the face, why will farmers hasten the sale of
their grain at prices which fail to leave profit
to the producers? Even the California yield
will not be near as large as has been anticiPa-
ted. The falling of the grain while the berry
was in the milk, or dough-, has in many cases
rendered the grain shrunkpn, AMI in conse-
quence much Lighter. This, of itself, will make
difference which will be sensbly felt in the
quantity to the acre Before the season is far ads
vanced, as soon at least as the annual yield is
fairly known the demand will exceed the sup
ply, and prices will be found to r-muuerate.
Grain in bulk "eats nothing or in other words
it entails no expense additional to the farmers,
unless it be the interest on its present value.
Grain stored at the present prices is better than
money at interest, as farmers will find before
the year has ended. California has been cursed
by spectators ever since it has had market
where its commodities were bought and sold.
That it is so is in measure their own fault.
Instead of forming societies for mutual protec-
tion and interchange of views, they have at.
tented, glehanded, to oppose the wealthiest
combination ia the world. When their grain is
ready for market, many are compelled to either
dispose of it at ruling prices, or else hire mon
ey ut usurious rates. That class must sell at
whatever figures they realize. But would
those who able to hold their grain wait sale
until living price was attained, the former
class wonld give small supply thatthe mar
ket rulings would be always at a remuneraIive
figure. Let farmers combine fer mutual prOtec-
tiun, as the various tradesmen have already
done in largeeities. II they will bu: do this
and hold to their stock Of grain, three months
will not pass e'er they will receive AN equiYa-
lent for their produce.

TRIBUTE TO OCR GovERYMENT.-The London
Times, in the course of its article on Govern
ments preservation of neutrality in the Fenian
afair,shys:
''If we have sometimes thought that the Amer
lean Government were tardy in discerning suii-
cieut grounds for their interference, we must
now acknowledge that when the occasion oc-
CURED they have acted in manner which even
exceeds anything that could have reasonably
heea expected from the most friendly nation.
The public will not fail to see the most conspic-
uous evidence of this disposition in the persons
to whom they have entrusted the duty of sup,
pressing this ignoble raid. force Of police
might have seemed the more appropriate agents
for capturing a mere band Of robbers and muir
derers, and, at the utmost, II subordinate mill
tary officer might have been thought amply suf-
ficient to deal with so trivial II disturbance.
But instead of this, the Federal Government
have employed the most distinguished officer in
their service, together with his most trusted
Lieutenant. General Grant, in America, holds
something of the position which the Duke of
Wellington held among ourselves, aud Oeherhl
Meade was only subordinate to him throughout
the final operations of the war. To employ these
two officers is not only to insure that the Feni-
an attempt shall be most efectualy suppressed,
but to give the most conspicuous evidence OF
the determination of the Government to oppose,
aAd, if necessary, to suppress the Fehian SOci-
ety. In point of moral force, PRESIDENT john
son s proclamation itself could hardly be more
efectual This document, however, and tae ar
rests by which it has been accompanied, are the
most complete blow which could have been
struck at the movement, and will do for MS ev-
erything we could have wished to do for our
selves These energetic acts of genuine friend
ship on the part of the United States Govern
mpnt will be long and cordially remembered"

Secretary Welles wrote

To the honor Of your Society it has in all times
and under all circumstances, in war and in
peace. been faithful TO the Union Of the States
and the rights of the States. At no period since
its organization have its teachings and services
been more required than at the present, when
the victorious arms of the Republic having sup
pressed the false theory that the Uniou can be
divided by secession, or the voluntary withdraw
al Of n State from its Federal relations and obli-
cations, we are compelled to encounter the op-
posite extreme of compulsory exclusion, by
which the ceEralists deny 10 eleven States the
representation 10 Congress which is guaranteed
to, them by the Constitution.
This doctrine of compulsory exclusion is
scarcely less offensive than that of voluntary
secession. Each is fatal to the perpetuity OF
the ULiOn.
After long and exhaustive war, which has
cost us so much blood and treasure, the country
needs repOse, that industry, commerce and the
arts of peace may revive, and friendly relations
between the States and people may be re-estab-
iished. Friendly confidence among the people
is to be encouraged, and must supercede hatred
and revenge. No portion of the States or peo-
pie can be deprived of their just rights without
producing arrangement.
