Whalen, the murderer Of Ac0hse,
4 hung, - murdsrsfs ought 10 be
hat murders done BY Railroads-O,
''These are mere accidents you know
Alas What safety can there be.
When Guilt 90 easily gets nee!
Card-playen ore absorbed In Games
Naught else the least attention claims
And 20 tho .Stonewall' cstchcs Are,
And proves mammoth funeral pyre!
While scores Of lives, 'twixt Flood and Flam
Are lost, and-n06odv to blames
We are bat mortal, and we must
Leave It with God. All.wise and Just.
Death with its..overwhelming wave.
Bears millions yearly to the gfave-
The many, Ill unknown to Fame;
The few who brief attention claimed.
| JOIN MNoR Boris, the Unions friend,
Southron, yet loyal to the end.
Ex-Governor PIcKHxs, traitor base,
Who finds, At last, his proper place
The King Of Belgium's only son:
And something, surely, must he done,
Since II would be an aarfui thing.
Were Belgium left without king.
BRADY, the Loyal Democrat;
The lawyer, yet, In spite of that,
The gentleman, refined, sedate;
Well nigh resistless in debate:
Who lived and died bachelor.
And kept the memory OF her
Whom he had loved in days long past
Alive and sacred to the last
PARDxK, whom Sunday Schools revere,
And yainly seek hir equal here:
The Frcnchman, LAxARrINF, who seems
Ns'er to have realized his dreams
lJAxEs HARPER, SO to speak, the germ
OF what Is now an honored Firm
EDWARD CUNARD, Of Steamship fame,
Who wore q SIR before his name:
The Russian Admiral, MEScmKoYr,
Whose lriace-ly title leave off:
The Missionary, KING, OF Greece,
Who found In death glad release:
RAYMOND, the Editor-in Chief
Alas that must be so brief
The founder of The NeW York Times
Know and esteemed In distant climes
The man whose quick and powerful brain
Seemed capable OF constant strain:
The worker, ever at his post
lKultum In parro. yea, . host /;
Dying score Of years too soon
Whose sun had scarcely reached high noon
OF whom we said, with bstcd breath,
I"Alas he worked himself TO DEATH
ToUcEY. Elk Cabinet Minister,
Who helped the Rebels make a stir:
RAwLISs, the Secretary, tried,
And faithful found the Nations pride
PIfr FEssENDKN, grand and austere,
Who lily could endure peer:
I q 49,
Whose equal we can nowhere fnd:
The blind HoHANSE-,- good old man
Able to do what few men can
Most al Gods Holy Word rehcarse.
And give the chapter and the verse
Proving less blind, as seems to me.
Than we are, who have eyes to see:
JOHN BILL. who IL remembered well
By some, as the BELL Everett Bell
FRANK PlEHcE, who died some years ago.
Bat buried recently, you know;
MARQUIS or wksrMIss En-, renowned
AZ wexlthiest Noblcman around:
The worthy LADY PALxkRsToN,
With honors well and nobly won
DERAY, the Tory, counted great
10 classic lore, and fierce debate:
STEWART and Wool almost the hast
or names that link Us with the Past:
WALKER and KENDALL who Of old
We're Cabinet Ministers, we re told
GEORGE PEABODY, who used his wealth
To give the poor man life and health:
Ready generous hand to lend,
And forward every noble end
Who. when the hour of death had come.
Said, Let me make my grave at home:
Bear me away. and Icy me down.
.sAn quiet in my native town.
GEORGE .PLABoDY, to all so dear;
Whose name two hcmisphcrcs revere
ALBERT D. RIeHARDeoN, whose late
SO tragic, need not relate:
Whose brilliant Life and rising fame
Were soiled perhaps twill provc-by shame
STANTON. The Fearless and The Just,
Whom loyal hearts could ever trust
Counted by friends and foes, "a Host. =
Ne'er leaving, dag nor night, hi- post;
At last rewarded with place
Which none so well as he could ..ac.:
7 ct not permitted here to wear
The robes OF Justice up Their
"Conhrmed" in his especial Right,
And decked in Ro es Of peerless Whitc:-
Ali these, and myriadr more, now sleep,
While sorrowing friends sad visil- keep.
The Year now past has realized
While .'natives" gre, Of course. :. surprieed -
The Contamination of Grand Schemes,
Surprising all our former dreams.
The Iron Horse now makes his way
From where Atlantic pillows play,
Zen to the far Pacific shore,
Before he finds his journey DER.
Anon he Turns his footsteps back.
Retracing quick his iron track,
And, on new commission bent.
Brings treasures from The Orient
Thus. hastening ~ best he can.
The Promised Brotherhood Of Man.
Another Cable makes TIA way
