Judge Swayne adjourned the Hous-

derstanding that the counsel having
charge of the various interests agree
upon a decree whereby the interests
of the parties concerned until the case
comes regularly before the full bench

ATTEMPTED OuTRAG4H 4H-We are in
formed by parties from Lafayette, that
last week two young fellows about fifteen
years of age, succeeded in obtaining u
quantity of chloroform, and in admins
tering it to young lady of about the
same age, with the intention of stppefy-
ing her and then violating. her person.
They were fortunately discovered before
their villainous design was accomplished,
and we learn that they are supposed to
have abscondod; probably they have been
helped off to California by the steamer
Orifamme, perhaps to avoid any disa-
greeable consequences that may follow
the action of the grand jury now in ses-
sion. These young fellows come.of re-
spectacle families, but have not been a
credit to their connections for some time.
If they reach San Francisco, where they
can pursue their career, SO unfavorably
commenced, free from restraint, we may
expect to hear from them again through
the criminal courts. Statesman.

PLAIN FAcTs.-Senator Morton, in a
recent speech in Wilmington, Ohio
made the following remarks, which are
as true as gospel, and is line of argu-
ment that is perfectly unanswerable:
And is there any good reason why the
Republican party, after having preserved
the republic, should be required to turn
over the care and custody of it to the
Democracy? When the flames of your
burning houses have been extingqished,
would you hire the incendiary as a
watchman to protect it from FIRE in the
future, or, when your child has been res
cued from the waves, would you deliver
it over for tender nursing and resuscita-
ton to the monster who threw it in
And vet you might do these things with
as much propriety as to turn owe the CON
troll of the government to the Democratic
party.v

The Welcome Home.

We may travel all over the world,
Ay, as far as the billows may roll,
Where they northward southwark are hurled,
Against ice-ields that girdle the pole;
We may wander wherever we list,
We may journey earth's confines all DER,
But the joy which we cannot resist,
Is the grasp of the hand at the door.
For at length when our holidays past,
And we gladly return DER the foam,
The one Joy that's not least, although last,
Is the hand-grip that welcomes us home.
There's something electric that thrills
In the touch of the hands that we know.
Which nor absenca-the longest-e'er kills,
Nor distance---where er we may go.
1t speaks from the heart to the heart,
From earth's fartAest-its uttermost shore
We may remember, though oceans apart,
The warm grasp of the hand at the door.
For wherever our fortunes are east
Meath Heavens eerulean dome,
The one joy that we look for at last
Is the hand grip that welcomes US home.
In the silence of African wiids,
When sleep closes the travellers eyes
In slumber soft a chids,
The dear visions of home will arise.
But of all tha best dreams of delight
That around him kind fancy can pour,
For the happiest fiction of night
Is the grasp of the hand at the door.
In the wilderness lonely and vast
Ay, wherever on earth we may roam,
The love dream that deserts us the last,
But need no longer absence to show
All. need wide distance to teach,
That the dearest of all things below
Is the home-loye ia waiting for each
Is the home that he cannot forget
For his heart is not sound at the core,
Whose breast has not leapt when it met
The warm grasp of the hand at the door.
Heat and cold we endured, storm and blast,
Waves we forded and mountains we elomb,
Are forgotten completely at last
In the hand-grip that welcomes home.
Though for long OF little part
Tried affection all count is above,
For You can't plumb the depths of heart
foE can't measure the leagues of love.
Birth and beauty, and riches nought-
sFor birth, beauty and riches in store
Neyer-neyer a welcome have brought
Like the grasp of the hand at the door.
All. how dear when the holidays past.
When gladly return DER the foam.
The one JOY that's not least, although last,
The warm hand-grip that welcomes US
home.
