The following is an enigma, said to
have been written by Mr.. Canning
which for time bafied all England to
solve:
There is word of plural number,
A foe TO peace and human slumber;
Now any word you chance to take,
By adding IS you plural make;
But if you add an IS to this,
How strange the metamorphis is;
Plural is plural then no more,
And sweet what bitter was before"
The word is "cares," to which. by
adding an IS" you have "caress."

The glory and pride of our beautiful West
Chicago in ashes rs grandeur non est
marvel if ever the telegraph bore
More terrible news on its swift wings before.
Such marvels of splendor, and greatness, and
toll
For the red-hand of Vulcan to madly despoll
Turning beauty to ashes and riches TO dust,
And proving earths treasures dangerous trust.
TO perish in flames with n bordering Lake
Ard rivers of water, sufficient TO Stake
perdition of fire-fiends--was yielding to fate
With that horrid composure which terrors create.
The rivers ran molten rejecting the flame,
The Lake wore a ribbon of deep ruby stain,
The heavens like brass, and the prairie winds
free
To sweep the Doomed city abreast with the
sea.
The city we loved In whose presence We felt
The soul of its grandeur and pride of its veal ill.,
Its spirit of progress inspiring all hearts
That surged in the ranks of its glorious marts--
Or throbhed TO the tune which its proud pnlses
beat
In the glow of the soul and thrill of the feet
And whose compact superbness of nature and art
No rival has known for its youths counterpart
We mourn with the manly and noble of heart
Who in moments hare seen gears Of glory depart
With the homeless and penniless--prostraie in
Whose enterprise knew ncitherl bound'ry nor
scope
Whose mortal achievements commend them to
fame,
Tho the works of their hands have persisted in
fame
IT'S the lesson of life, on q wonderful scale,
That we gather to lose. and struggle TO fail
Still in climbing we gain some invisible height
In a spiritual way, unrevealed to the sight,
And the work of to-day, tho dashed out of view
Shall inspire the true soul with genius anew
And, like Phoenix of old from lis ashes arise,
To gladden. the earth with grander surprise

Republican Meeting at Jerusalem. Southamp-
ton County.
JERUSALEM, October 16, 1871

TO the Editor Of The State Journal:
A convention, to nominate a Republican
candidate for the House of Delegates, as
sembled here this day, at ~ o'clock NJ,
every township in the county being fully
represented.
Mr.. Oswell w. Arts was chosen presi-
dent, and Mr.. George r. Hunt secretary.
After an examination of credentials, the
convention proceeded to business, and
unanimously nominated Rev. Jos. Gregory
as their candidate for the House of Dele
gates.
The announcement of Mr.. Gregory's
nomination was received with hearty cheers
by the large number of Republicans assem-
bled on the courthouse green.
Considerable disappointment was ex-
pressed at the non-arriyal of Hon. James
IL. Platt, who was expected to be present
and address the meeting.
James III. Clements, of Portsmouth, was
introduced by the President and proceeded
to address the assemblage, which very soon
became large crowd, in consequence Of
the mass of white people who were attend
ing court crowding around to hear Mr..
Clements remarks. Mr.. G. proceeded to
give a history of the Conservative or Demo-
cratic party of Virginia. His remarks were
so pointed and effective, that the Conserva-
tives became very FESTIVE, interrupting the
speaker on numerous occasions. He kept
his temper, and those who asked questions
were fully answered, and were, evidently,
sorry they had not kept their mouths shut.
The meeting was afterwards addressed
by Messrs. Austin, Sykes, and Gregory,
who eloquently urged active aud unceasing
labor for the success Of the. Republican
party.
The meeting adjourned with cheers for
their candidate and the party.

OUR WASHINGTON CORRESPONDENCE.
Help for the Chicago and Nlichigan Unforiu-
nates-The Cotton Cr0p-Civil Service Conl-
misison-The Presidents Proclamation.
WASHINGTON, Oct. Is.


In the Legislative Assembly of this dis
trict, which isnow extraordinary session,
the bill approprating 100000 for the re-
lief of the Chicago sufferers, will come up
to-day for final disposition. 1t will pass
with scarcely a dissenting vote. 1t will
swell the fund for this purpose to about
100000. In addition to this large contri-
button from the people Of this city, q hand
some sum, amounting to from $50, 900 to
100000, will be raised before the close of
the week, for the unfortunate people of
Michigan and Wisconsin.
The cotton returns for October, received
at the Department of Agriculture, are no
more favorable than those of the preceding
month. In no State is the average of Sep
TENDER fully sustained. The general aver
age of the condition in the first week of the
present month is 76 per cent. against so
per cent. in September. In some sections
in the Mississippi valley and in Texas i'm
proved prospects arc reported, while the
preponderance Of testimony in the South
west, as well as on the Atlantic coast,
favors further reduction of the expected
yield. The per centage of the condition of
the several States is as follows: North
Carolina, so; South Carolina, 70; Georgia,
70; Florida, 70; Alabama, 10; Missis-
sippi, 76; Louisiana, 10; Texas, y; Ar
kansas, 80; Tennessee, o..
The present indications do not pointto q
crop of more than three millions of bales,
and if the remaining season should prove
untavorable for the development and gath
ering of the fibre, smaller result must be
expected.
The commission appointed last spring by
the President to report plan for the reform
of the civil service, convened here yester-
day after a recess of some months. Messrs.
Curtis, Walker, Elliott and Cox were pres
ent, Mr.. Medll being detained by the dsor-
ganized condition of his business in Chicago,
and Mr.. Cattel by sickness. The whole
session of yesterday was spent in the con-
sideration of the opinion expressed by the
attorney general, relative to the powers of
the commission, and the scope of the du-
ties devolying upon it.
The proclamation of the President sus-
pending the writ of hdbeas corpus III several
of the counties of South Carolina, should
teach the Ku-Klux Democracy of that, as
well as other Southern States, that Presi-
dent Grant is in earnest, and that he will
put down this unlawful organization and
punish the ring-leaders if it takes the entire
army and navy to do it. They would not
take fair warning-they will hare to submit
to punishment. AGA.
