IN VAIN.

We watch for tho feet at the garden gate,
With Dyes that arc almost dim,
And our hearts are sore from the cruel fate
That for years has learned us to watch and
wait
For joys that will never begin.
We cling to the links Of the broken chain
With the tenderness of 1--we,
And watch with o hope, as the bright days
wane.
That at last we can gather them up again
In the fields that bloom above.
There are loved ones dear whose lips we
TO our own, in our bitter woe;
For VIC never knew, as their years grew
less,
And the sweet eyes closed we had learned
to bless, a. 5 :.
We had ever loved them so.
And we watch from the ccholess, painless
shore,
For hand to clasp our own,
As they did in the beautiful days of yore
But now they have strayed thro the gol-
den door.
And kneel ut their Fathers throne.
And we lift our voice and call in vain
On tho ones who went before,
But their ears are closed, and our tears and
pain
will never be soothed by their smiles
again,
On the other and better shore.
For we would not list to the truths they
told
With their trembling, fearful eyes, 1.
And our sinful hearts were cold-so cold,
That our souls will never with joy unfold
In the light of Paradise

THE EATHEIS DARLING.


THE FATHEInS DARLING.
Como, close the shutter, darling,
And stir again the fire,
And sing for me that little hymn
Learned in the village choir;
Then get the big old Bible
My sight is growing dim ,'
Yes, that's the strain, my darling;
How beautiful that hymn!
Your voi.a is J:...e your mothers,
When she, like you, was young:
All we'll do I remember
Those little songs she sung.
She's sleeping in the churcll-yard!
But why be sod tonight?
The volume now lies open,
The fire is warm and bright.
Bcatitudcs, how glorious!
BLESSED are the pure in heart"
Your mothers form seems by me,
As burning tear-drops start;
She's lowering near her darling -,
Her own, pure, indebted;
I feel the angel presence - q
That stands beside my child!
"Thc pure in heart" my darling,
Shall duaff the cup of bliss,
In that bright world Of beauty, il
How different, oh, from this!
Their brows enwreathed with garlands,
A palm in every hand;
In robes of dazzling whiteness,
In blood-wash'd ranks they'll stand.
Our little hymn is ended. aH1r,
Our little prayer is DER;
Now, go up to your chamber,
And, so-good-night once more
Yet, ere you leave me, darling,
Come, sit upon my knee;
And IN these kisses, dearest one, n
Learn all my love for thee.
Good night, good night. my darling,
Sweet dreams be thine, tonight; {
Old memories throng upon mo lie
My heart will not be light. Pisa
How much she's like her mother
She, too, has gone to sleep H..8
Beneath the churcll.yard willows,
And ] am left to weep!
My, precious child, my darling,
The world but little knows
How sad my days, and lonely,
My nights without repose: a
How books have grown distasteful,
How laughter pains my ear;
How commonplace to me, love,
The words, words, words hear.
From those who do not know me, a
And, therefore, cannot feel
That deep, deep, deep loneliness,
seek not to reveal.
But thou 'rt me my world love;
My heaven is in thy smile;
Now, go to sleep, my darling,
And will watch the while.

President-Mnkinx.

The New York Tribune of Monday gives
great prominence to the Washington letter of
an occasional correspondent. 1t is an at
tack upon Grant, and predicts the formation
of a new party to oppose the election of the
regular Republican nominee 1t will draw
its strength from the three following sources: !:
1. The dissatisfied Republicans in the South.
2. Those Republicans in the West and North
wh) believe with General Butler that the
bonds should be paid in currency. ). Those
Republicans who believe the National Bank
ing System to be wrong. The correspondent
predicts that within thirty days after the
nomination of Grant on "a gold-paying, cur
rency-con.racting, protective PLATFORM" we
shall have such ticket as Benz. +. Butler
for President and Thomas j. Dnrant for Vice
President. He concludes with the following
lively notice OF Speaker Colfax:
have spoken of Mr.. Colfaxl Was there
ever such good tempered, chirping, war
bling,real canary bird OF a Speaker? 1t does
ones heart good to look at him; and, if he
were to take wings and fly up among the
trees and carol all day, it wouldn't surprise
me. Well, the popularity OF that man-con-
sidering he does not drink anything, and goes
to ehurch-is astonishing. Some of his
friends say he is no longer in the canvass tor
the Presidency, but that he will be presented
by the West for the Vice-Presidency. Ger
tainly. the nomination OF Mr.. Colfax would
strengthen even the Grant ticket, and, but tor
his sectional position, he would be nominated
by acclamation. As it is, unless you settle
some of your quarrels in New York or Penns
sylyania, and agree upon a candidate, Mr..
Coliax may be nominated anyhow. 1t would

to the service of the Biddeiord Times. An
article in the last number Of that enterprising

following extract, representing the "reiuve-
mated Democracy" as standing with one foot
on the western verge Of the eontirent and

At the close of the war, or December 81,
1865, as will be seen by the foregoing table,
the State liabilities had reached the high fig
ure OF S5, 800. From that time gradual
reduction has been going on; so that the ag-
eregate amount is now S5O90,500. From
this is to be deducted the amount of the sink
ing fund. say S569,OO0, leaving the actual in
debte lness $4,52l, 800.
The debt natures ds follows: $S00,000 in
1871, S475 600 in 1880, s525, 900 in 1888, s2,-
S32, ,500in 1889. For the payment of these
several amounts, the sinking fund has been
established. and is sufficient to meet them as
they severally mature. This sinking fund is
S123,775.90 per year, invested and rapidly ac-
cunulating. Added to this yearly accumula-
tion is 5000, ,14435, collected of the General
Government during the present year. By
statute OF 1866, any money collected of the
United States on account of war claims is to
be assigned to the sinking fund. J his in the
end will show an excess, as the $123,775.90 is
sufficient for all war claims against the State
as they mature.
OF the S369,400 soldiers bounty scrip is
sued in 1865, all but about $4,000 has been re-
deemed. In June last dangerous counter
felt OF the bounty scrip was found on the
market Great pans were taken to ferret
out tn author, but without success. Only
about ten pieces have so far come to light,
and by them the State has suffered no loss.
During the year, as funds could be spared
from the Treasury, and as favorable opportu-
nifty occurred, our bonds have been taken
from the market for the sinking fund of next
year, in advance, to the amount of $4,000.
This procedure has been observed since
the sinking fund was established in 1885.
and so iavorably has this plan worked for the
fund, that its actual condition to-day is ah cad
OF its arithmetical calculation by some SIP 800.
