SHOCKING, IF TRUE The New York
World is telling some terrible stories of
the wickedness at Washington, in which
the professional woman of the lobby and
their friends in Congress are the fig rantes
Columns of details are given, but the fol-
I lowing will suffice to show what loath-
some picture the writer has been painting.
Among the lobby women in Washington
last winter was the daughter of present
U. S. Senator whose father years ago re-
fused to let her marry the man of her
choice. She eloped with him; he deceived
her by mock marriage, he having two
other wives, SO called living he took ID

home, and the father and daughter used
to pass one another in the Capitol year
ago, she a wanton aud he Senator, and
never speak. Nor did either ever be;ray
the event to any one. He called her
dead, she consented to be dead even to
him.
Another Senator's wife, who is an in
valid, cannot be unaware, for no one else
is. that her husband has stocked no less
than six of his mistresses on the civil
service as clerks, and that he adds to the
number every session
Another Senator, Southwest carpet
bagger, toistcd his mistress on the Trea-
sury Department last year. and was in
fuential enough to have her salary con-
tinued while he seat her on to New York
to undergo an abortion. She died The

Just there, and Mr.. Darcy went stornling-

All the ielJ of battle was reached at

before the FIRE, trying to quiet the screams
of an eigh,-months old baby scion of the
house Of Darcy, while another rosy
boy of Eve years-lay on his back, prone
on the Hoor, kicking and crying in an I'M
governable fit of childish passion.

Demands high thoughts that cannot quail,

And given to countless changes birth.

To me, to me, there comes no night.

Lies upward to the immortal dead,
That few hairs are turned gray,
Or one more year of life is fed?
Swift years but teach me how TO hear,
To feel and act with strength and skill
TIE reason wisely. nobly dare;
And speed your courses as ye will.

How calm, how rich he twilight glow

Which shines not here on things below.

What, then, shall We not meet again,
Where parting comes not-sorrow ends!
The fondness of parents care,
The changeless trust which women gives;
The smile of childhood it is there,
That all we love in them still lives.
Press onward through each varying hour;
Let no weak fears thy course delay;
Immortal being! feel thy power;
Pursue thy bright and endless way.
