BY MARGARET LINDSAY

BY MARGARET LINDSAY,
1t was towards the close Of a beautiful
summers day that a heaviIy-Ioaded
stage wound slowly up the hill which
surrounds the little town of Prospect.
Finally, it reached the elevation upon
which the clustering white houses stood.
Turning toward the left, it drew up be-
fore a large hotel, whose broad piazzas
were filed with merry groups gayly
chatting and prOmenading. Laughing
tones became Somewhat subdued, and
conversation tagged, as furitive glances
were cast toward the new arrivals.
First matronly lady alighted, fol-
lowed by two young ladies and a SER
want with two children; then several
nOndeseript individuals, none of whom
attracted particular attention. The first
mentioned lady was at once styled the
chaperOn of the two younger, and the
mother Ofthe children, and in this, con-
lectures were correct.
The young ladies upon thep piazza, TAX
ing a critical survey of the dress and APP
pearance of the strangers, pronounced
it ar fIit, while the gentlemen exhibit
ed their approval by looks of interest
and admiration. The former inwardly
Iamented the prospect of an addition to
the already full company of eligible
young ladies, while the latter rejOiced
in the accession of new and pretty
faces.
Somewhat apart from the others, sat
a young man reading. He was evil
.dently absorbed in his book, and uncon-
.scious UfsurrOunding circumstances, un-
til aroused by an acquaintance touching
him slightly on the shoulder, and say
ing;
Hal, wake up! Are you so deeply
hurled in that dry criticism of Ruskin's,
as to Lave no eye for present beaUty?''
Tbus a a,ecOsted, Harry Vincent turned
from his b,pOk to the direction which
his comDanio.y's look had indicated,
where stood the stbree ladies who were
being go critically reviewed, during The
few minutes in which they were giving
the necessary orders for their baggage.
Turning from the calm, unruhledi
matrOnIy face, to the brightsweet, bsau-
ty by her side, his eyes finally rested
upon the tall graceful girl who stood ap'
parently in utter Inconsistencies OF the
many eyes directed towards her.

your name upon his lips, he passed
from darkness into light"
This, and no more. No knowledge Of
the bitter struggles, the loneliness of
heart endured for weary days, and
months, and years, when the heavens
seemed brass above him; when, parched
and thirsty, his soul found no relief
All this Margaret never learned. It
was well she did not. She only knew
that, out of all, he had risen victorious;
and knowing this, she thanked God fer
vently.
How was it with her, during all these
long years? Had she forgotten her one
love, or had the thought of him embit-
tered her whole life? ] believe that
those who earnestly strive to fulfill their
duties before God and man are never
left utterly cOmfortless. She was ever a
loving daughter and faithful wife. No
known duty was neglected. Thus her
heart had come to learn the lesson of
peace. If ever she lOnged for life
which should satisfy her hearts hun
CRY cravings, if ever in midsummer
there came before her, as a phantom of
the past-"The thought of another sum-
mer whose garlands had faded away"
all these griefs and wearisome burdens
were cast upon Him who has promised
rest.
Knowing and feeling that she had
failed of a great happiness in life she
found it her joy to live for others pleas
ure rather than her own. By rich ex-
periences she came to understand these
words:
''To do Gods will is sweet; and to
bear Gods will is sweet; the one as
sweet as the other, to those to whom he
reveals himself"

II we had but known, if we had bat known,
Those summer days together,
That one would stand next year alone.
In the blazing July weather:
Why, we triaed away the golden hours.
With gIadness, and beauty, and calm,
Watching the glory ofblossOming flowers,
Breathing the warm airs balm;
Seeing the children like sunbeams play,
Inthe glades oftbe long, cool wood;
Hearing the wild biFd's carol gay,
And the song OF the muTmuring flood
Rich gems 10 Times pitiless river thrown,
If we had but known, If we had but known.
1--we had but known If we had but known,
Those winter nights together.
How one would sit by the hearth alone,
In the next December weather;
Why, we sped those last hours, each for each,
With music, and games, and talk,
The careless, bright, delicious speech,
With no doubt or fear &c baylk.
Touching on all things, grave and gay.
With the freedom Of two in one,
Yet leaving, as happy people may,
so much unsaid, undone.
All, priceless hours, forever flown,
1--we had but known, IL we had but known.
II we had but known, II we had but known,
While yet we stood together,
How a thOughtless look, sighting tone,
Would sting and jar foreverl
Cold lies the turf for the burning kiss,
The cross stands deaf to cries,
Dull, as the wall of silence is,
Are the grey, unanswering skies!
We can never unsay a thing we said,
While the weary life drags past,
We never can staunch the wound that bled,
Where a chance stroke struck II last.
On, the patient love meath the heavy stone,
five had but known, II we had but known.

The path before US seemed all our own,
And the glorious Autumn weather.

"NOt an Orangemen injured, says the

Why, "thank God for that?"
Isit because Orangemen are all protes.

Is itbecause Orangemen are all Repub-

Isit because Orangemena are oath-hound

Isit because Orangemen generally re-

Is itbecause Orangemense seldom enlist

OF Caleb Cushing the Washington
Capital has this to say: He is one of the
most wonderful men of the day. With
out office and without official reeogni-
ton of any sort, he is yet power. We
hazard nothing in saying that for the
last three years Of our Washington OBJ
servation, no State paper has been writ
ten of any importance, or move made,
or diplomatic agent selected, without
calling in aid the pen or advice of this
remarkable man. He reminds one
more of a European statesman, one of
that sort who aeeumulates years and in
formation without age, and up to the
last moment of long career is as valu-
able to his country as in the prime of
manhood.

New Departure.

The phrase "new departure" which
has recently been adopted into political
literature, did not originate among
either land surveyors or seamen, as
might be supposed, but among lawyers.
1t means, technically, the abandon
ment, in pleadings, of one ground Of ac-
ton or defence and the taking up of an
other. Senator Wilson of MsSsaehU-
sets was the first man of any note who
applied it to political matters, but its
appropriateness was Immediately per-
ceived by other writers and speakers,

exasperated people have commenced the
work Of retaliation on the Indians. Their

killing Of good citizens on the San Pedro

He CONECTICUF ELECTION


The Democratic papers are denoInc-
ing in the bitterest terms, the ousting,
by the legislature, of English who,
through fraudulent returns was declared
elected governor of Connecticut 1t is
called high-handed outrage upon the
liberties of the people, and all that.
So far as we have been able to discover
from the report, it was shown, beyond
question, that English was not duly
elected, but that Jewell was; that in
one ward in New Haven the votes for
Jewell were cut down one hundred by
those making the returns. This was
proved by af6davits. Now in what
consists the Outrage" of the Legisla-
ture in unseating English and seating
Jewell? Is it one of the CELEBRITIES of
the people" to tamper with election re-
turns? Is it the right of English to
hold the reins of government in Con-
necticut another year when another man
had been chosen by the people? If

could have easily been shown. but such
showing was wanting on the part of
EnglIsh's S friends. The Democratic pa
pers that are now vigorously pouring out
their expletives upon the Republicans in
the Legislature for ferreting out this
fraud do not deny the fraud-at least do
not bring forward any explanation of the
facts as sworn to before the investigating
but they say that there were
frauds by Republicans. IF this were
true, it is no excuse or palliation for the
fraud at New Haven. We believe in
exposing fraud wherever it occurs, and
righting the wrongs which it may have
perpetrated. Democratic papers would
better show their regard for the ''liber-
ties of the people" by devoting more
space to the exposure and denulciation
of election and other frauds of their own
party and less to the denunciation of
those who are so doing.-Evening WIS

MIR. BANCROFT.

how little wirepuIling politicians at Washington

The resignation of Mr.. Bancroft, and his probable
succession by politician who has greater claims on
the party, is the of much regret among those
OF his countrymen and those Germans who look at
the Importance and duties of diplomatic represen-
tatve with different eyes from the members of the
victorious party at home. If Mr.. Bankroft did not
consider it his principal duty to introduce court

offered TO the German people if Mr. Bancroft had
been asked for his advice. His intimate relations
with the most prominent men of letters and public

politics, have enabled him to do more for the
mutual understanding of the two nations and for
their mutual appreciation than any of his predeces
in office.

Our Ultimate object I'm the Back.
ground

The Democrats are actively engaged
just now IN trying to conjure up some
| plan by which to defeat the present rul-
ing party and get control of the general
government In the coming campaign. Ar
linking OF what they propose to do should
| they be successful In their projects may
| be obtained by reading the following ex-
tracts from some of the representative
| Democratic papers in the country. The
Montgomery Mail says:
When the Fourteenth and Fifteenth
Amendments have been once subverted
| the structure Of negro suprenad cy founded
upon them naustnecess0rlty fall a0ith them.
In this belief we are entirely willing the
opposition to the Fourteenth and Fif-
teenth Amendments shall be shaped to
whatever policy the wisdom of our lead
ing minds may determine to be safest and
surest for effecting the great end we have
first In view. If for instance, that policy
shall be SO shaped as TO attack the odious
amendments on the ground of their neu-
tralizing tendency with regard to govern
ment powers, we are content to fight the
battle on that issue, and bide the time
which must at length set all things even.
But although a1c teaUe Our ultimate Object
IN the background for a season 1t shall
nerertheless be kept duly aliUe; so that at
the proper moment it may be brought
prominently forward to assume the lead
ing position in the matters for final ad-
justment before the bar of right and JUS
tice that its immeasurable importance de-
mands.
The Atlanta Intelhgencer expresses it
self in this manner:
The 18th amendment is the great
plague spot on the face of the great char
ter of American freedom. This is the
fruitful source of our greatest woe, the
authority claimed for that infamous brood
of laws which are intended to enslave
the people by destroying the freedom of
the ballot and placing the country under
martial law at the will of the President.
This wrong, this usurpation, can never
be sanctioned by one who stands upon
the principles of the democratic party.
If it cannot be stricken from the Consti-
tuition, let it be condemned as the off
spring of usurped power, and the govern
ment placed in the hands of men who
will pluck out its poisonous sting, by re-
pealing the legislation which is claimed
to be authorized by it, and necessary to
enforce it.
The Augusta Constitutionalist says:
IF the Southern people can have, as
the legitimate result of what those North
ern Democrats profess to have fought for,
union of equal States with their SOW
ereign rights as they stood before the
war, unim paired they will make no issues
with the party as between peace Demo-
Gratis and war Democrats. But if they
are ex expected to accept the usurpations of
the Republican party, which have for
the time being practically made this an
imperial government and an overshado
wing military despotism, as among the
legitimate fruits, the protest will be long
and loud, inside and outside of national
party conventions.
