BLHssING IN DISGUISE

Mine eyes wers stiened with the last nights tears
And my brow aehed too heavily to weed.
oppEett with sorrow past and future fears.
Too weary to avake-too sad to sleep.
With Hstless hand drew away the blind
To look where lay the morning duh and gray;
Iheard no whisper Of the cold night wind,
saw no gleam to chase the gloom away:
Spread like a morning veil on every hill
Hung eheerloss miEt, thro' which the dark dawn
crept;
The rain drops on the trees hung cold and still,
Like tears of one who in his sleep hath wept.
Sadly turned and laid me down again
Til sorrows leaden trance my s9nze did steal,
As those lulled by very strength of pain
Forget their pain a while and cease to feel.
30 passed the hours away, and awoke;
But while slept the world had Travelled on
The damp mist rolled away, the morning broke,
And, pouring radiance forth, up rose the sun.
The purple hills were tinged with living light.
The grass was waving in the morning breeze,
Like sparkling gems the raiu-drops of the night
In rainbow showers were glittering from the
trees.
Then my heart melted too, and the deep gloom
Passed like the dreary morning mist away;
The sun shone warm and bright into my room,
And IrOse up from my dull tran:e to pray.
o God, most mersifuli it's ever 50:
While thankless man feels but the present pain,
Andlie steeped in the WEAKNESS of woe,
Thy step is drawing near to heal again.

self into great fury, in which I left
him to 60 to work at the theatre. He
continued in this rage throughout the
night, and spent terrible night with
him. All the next day, the goth, he
remained at home, abusing and tor
menting. He used to me expressions
which never could forgive or endure,
and still harping on the fact of my
being at Richardson's room. He asked
me, before Percy, who was all the time
present, "Did Richardson ever kiss
you? Have you ever been in his room
alone with him ? and others which I
considered insulting and objectionable.
He was under the influence of liquor
all the day, remaining at home, and GO
ing out every little while to drink.
At last he declared he was willing to be
separated from me, and that might go
home to my fathers, and leave him.
When l assented, he wanted me to
bring in some of my friends to talk the
matter over before them, but l refused
to take counsel from any one till
my father could be sent for, and I
only prevented him from calling in some
Of my friends by representing to him that
he was then so intoxicated that his cause
would be pre- JUDGED by that fact. On the
morning of the Goth, before going to the
theatre, l secreted his razors, his pocket
knife. my scissors, and all articles l
thought dangerous, as l often did on such
occasions, and left him. When l came he
was still raging. He frequently had made
threats of committing suicide, often going
out doors with that avowed purpose. On
this occasion, about midnight, he bade me
an unusually solemn and eternal farewell,
and told me this time he was certainly
going out to destroy himself. He had
done this so often that said nothing, and
made no effort to detain him. At the door
he hesitated, and asked if had nothing
to say in this last parting. said, II can
only say that am hopelessly sorry for
you" He went cut and in few mo
ments returned, as l knew he would,
cooled and sobered by the night air, and
then, it being nearly morning, as mildly
and firmly as l possibly could, began to
talk with him. told him / should leave
him forever; that had borne, with Pa
tience, for many years, great outrages
from him; that he had made my life miss
cradle and had often put me in great
dread of my life r; that ! could not endure
it any longer; that by his conduct the
past two days, and by his language when
he found me at Richardson's door he ad-
ded the last drop to my cup of endurance,
and | should 60 away from him at once.
On this he grovelled at my feet in the
most abject penitence. He wept and Sob
bed, and begged me to forgive him.
He confessed he had wronged
me that no woman would have borne
with him as | had done, and about day,
light went to sleep exhausted. The next
morning did not allude to my purpose,
but after seeing him leave the house for
Mr.. McElrath's Office, went to Mr.. Sin

tion of his roof, and never afterwards

British Female Suffrage.


The woman's suffrage question is seri~
ously before the British Parliament, and a
bill to that effect in the House of Commons
was passed to its second reading last We'd
nesday, We are confident that it will be
rejected in the House of Lords. In our
own country it is not surprising to see the
woman suffrage question pushed with so
much pertinacity. Women have ever
been regarded, in the United States, with
a degree of respect to be found neither in
France nor England for in France the
courtesy shown them cannot be called re-
spcct-t is species of elegant and empty
homage-while in England women are
treated with the civil y extended to men
in the same social position, nothing more.
1t is only in the Uniled States that women,
as sush, have accorded to them, by GUS
tom, degree Of respect that runs beyond
mere politeness. At the same time it
must be confessed that this courtesy is
rapidly wearing very thin, owing to the
unfeminine exertions of some women to
render themselves conspicuous as cham
pions of 'equal rights These women
are fast destroying the national character
of Americans for gallantry. They are
reducing, little by little, the conditions Of
the female sex, here, to precisely its stat
us in England, where "a tcomdn is treated
to no extra tenderness because of her sex.
The efforts made in England to bestow
the ballot on women amount to very little,
however. They are contemplated, gener-
ally, either as huge political jokes, or else
as simply means to get up "A novel ex-
citement Few people view them in the
light OF sincere desire to elevate the sex,
for few Enslishmen are disposed to admit
that, in political sense, men and women
are equal. Women have held, at all
times, so high place in the judgment OF
men in this country, that we may infer an
honest sincerity in the exertions of such
Of the latter demand that both sexes be
made equal at the polls; bat whom have
ever been practically considered, in Eag-
land, as an inferior though amiable race,
and there is not much sincerity in the oc-
casional endeavors made, by certain poll.
ticians there, to concede to them political
rights.
This movement in the Commons there
fore, has not the political significance II
would be entitled to here if such bill
had made such progress in our federal
House of Representatives. 1t is simply
what we call "bumbc smbc" on the part OF
the British House of Commons. The bill
in question might pass that House be.
cause its quietus in the House of Lords
would be thought inevitable. The latter,
being composed of members who belong
to the aristocracy, is naturally an exclu.
sive body, and being such is just as nat
urally conservative. 1t will be impossible
to make the Lords do much more than
smile at such proposed innovation upon
established political principles. We can
not believe that the Commons has any real
disposition to introduce women to tie
sphere of politics, but we are confiien,
that the Lords will be unwilling even to
coquet with proposition, socially speak
ing, so radically revolutionary.-N. j.
