STANTON AND THE ENGLISH


~ 80 MISSION.
The Cincinnati Gazette pro-
fesses to have information that
Edwin Stanton will replace Reverdy
johnson as Minister to England.
Unless the President retains some
ill-will to this noted character for
his attempt to overslaugh him at
Vicksburg in 1868, we think it is
quite probable. But, in his appoint
ment to this high trust, neither the
rights, the honor, nor the dignity of
the nation will be enhanced.
Mr.. Stanton has some vigor of
intellect, but he has not the learn
ing and accomplishments which
qualify for the diplomatic duties per-
tanning to this post. In manners,
he is abrupt, arrogant and coarse.
He has the temper Of bulldog and
delights in its display. BE is one of
the class who came to the surface
of public life about the commence
ment of the civil war, having acquir-
ed some reputation previously as a
brass-faced, brow beating criminal
lawyer of more than ordinary
parts. To those with whom
he has been officially associated
for the last seven years, he is pei
sonally unpopular and odious, BY
reason Of his domineering and bru-
tai department. Such a man is
not a fit representative at the
court of st. James in the present
delicate emergency. He would
make the Alabama business a casus
JeHi without caring a grost for the
consequences. His correspondence
and manner could in a fortnight
place the affair where Mr.. Adams
found it, and undo every feature of
amicable negotiation achieved by
that gentlemen and his successor,
Mr.. johnson Stanton, the bully,
and Sumner, the pedant, are, neither,
the men to do work which requires
talent, tact and a refined sense of
honor and iustice.

IT is reported in Washington that
Grant is not at all pleased with the
proposition of the Senate to sus-
pend the tenure-of-offlce law until
the beginning of the next session
of Congress. He sees in this action
that the Radical members of the
Senate are but little disposed to

A nIodeI prIntInr omoe.

In the Union Building is located ont of the
most attractive job printing establishments
In the entire West, of which Messrs. II. L..
Hanscom d Co.. arc the proprietors. Not
least among those men who have sought
and secured n hold upon the confidence and
patronage of the business public, and
achieved a success in Chicago as merited as
it is solid, is Mr.. Hauscom. Some Eve
years ago he opened n small office on Dear
born street, and, in q modest way, COM
menced business, obtaining customers here
and there, steadily making friends. His
plan of conducting business was then, as
1t always has been, to give perfect salts
faction and send out work unsurpassed In
point Of finish and workmanlike execution.
The result was that friends and customers
multiplied, and his business soon necessi-
lated more room, as well as increased facil-
tiles, to keep pace with its demands. Far
well Hall Building was selected as a new
base, and there he opened and operated
upon a much more extensive scale; when
in the midst of prosperity he lost his en-
tire stock OF material and presses with the
disastrous fire which occurred to
that building two years ago. II re-
quired, however, only a few hours to secure
new quarters, and, with q new outfit, set
tled down to business again-this time Mt
Nos. 1873 and 1870 LaSalle street. An inn.
poTtant branch of his business then. as
now, was that Of gummed and cut labels
for druggists use, and while ut the last
named place he very largely extended his
facilities for procuring business, soon sue
ceeding in obtaining customers in all parts
of the country. Tho rapid growth Of his
business made II evident that still more
room was needed for the prompt and eff
cient execution of his many orders. For
this purpose he secured the magnificent
hall over the Union National Bank,
occupying 100 feet on Washington
street and 60 feet on LaSalle. Seven steam
presses are now kept constantly in use, and
some forty of the best workmen to be OBJ.
tanned find steady employment. For the
convenience of the public his counting

ing), is located on tho second floor, easily
accessible from both Washington aud La
Sale streets. Here the energetic and &c.
NAL proprietor or his gentlemanly assist
ants may always be found in readiness to
supply the wants of customers, and when
desired show them through the busy estab-
lishment, If there is a job printer in Chi
cago who is deserving Of widespread pat
ronage it is Mr.. Hanscom; but the fact that
he has, from an humble start Ave years ago,
succeeded in establishing one of the largest
and finest job offices in the West, of itself
speaks forcibly in his praise, and best illus
trates the character of himself and his
work. Chicago Tribune.

wuEN YOU WE'RE SEVENTEEN,

In the years long ago,
And while the western sky was rich
with sunsets rosy glow,
Then hand in hand olose-linked we passed
The dewy ricks between,
And I was Internationally, May,
Andyou were seventeen.
Your voice was low aud sweet, Mary;
Your wavy hair was brown;
Your cheek was like the Wild red rose
That showered It's petals down.
Your eyes were like the blue s~peedwen,
With dewy moisture sheen,
When I was one-and.twenty, May,
And you were seventeen.
The Spring was in our hearts, Mary,
And all lie hopes were ours
Aud we were children IN The fields,
Among the opening flowers.
Ay Life was like q Summer day
Amid the woodlands green,
For 7 was one-and-twenty, May,
And you were seventeen.
The years have come and gone. Mary,
With sunshine and with shade,
And ailvered is the silken hair
That DER your shoulders s,rayed
In many y soft and hayward tress-
The fsirsst ever seen
when I was one-and.twenty, May,
and yfu were seventeen.
Though gently changing Time. Mary,
Has touched you In his zig ht,
Your voice has stu the old sweet tone,
Your eye the old love Hight;
And years can never, never cha ngo
The heart you gave, I ween,
When I was one-and-twenty, May,
And YOU were seventeen.
