wOMAN's WORK.
Darning little stockings
For restless little feet;
Washing little faces
To keep them clean and sweet;
Hearing Bible lessonsj
Teaching cateohism;
Praying for salvation
From hcresy and schlsm-- tt
Woman's work,
Sewing on the buttons;
Overseeing rations;
Soothing with kind word
Others lamentations
Guiding clumsy Bridgets,
And coaxing sulcn cooks;
Entertaining company,
And reading recent books
Woman's work.
Burying out Of sight
Her own unhealing smarts;
Letting in the sunshine
On other clouded hearts;
Binding up the wounded,
And healing OF the sick;
Bravcly marching onward,

Leading little children,
And blessing manhood's years;
Showing to the sinful
How Gods forgiveness cheers;
Scattering sweet roses
Along another's path;
Smiling by the waysido,
Content with what she hath

Letting fall her own tears,
Where only God can see;
Wiping OF another's
With tender sympathy;
Learning by experience;
Teaching by example;
Ycarning for the gateway,
Golden, pearly, ample
Woman's work.
Lastly cometh silence,
A day of deep repose--
Her locks smoothly braided,
Upon her breast rose;
Lashes resting gently
Upon the marble check;
A look Of blessed peace
Upon the forehead meek
Pale hands softly folded,
The kindly pulses still;
The lips know no smiling,
The noble heart no thrill;
Her couch needs no smoothing,
She craveth for no care;
Loves tenderest entreaty
Wakes no responses there.
Fresh grave in the valley
Tears, bitter sobs, regret.j
One more solemn lesson
That life may not forget. !.
Face forever hidden,
Race forever run
"Dust to dust" voice saith,
And woman's work is done.

THE DEMOCRACY.
Threatened Rebellion I'm the Camp-Th

Managed.

Threatened Rebellion I'm the Camp-The
state Convention and How It was
Managed.
The Democratic newspapers of Pennsylvania
do not seem to be unanimous in accepting the
platform adopted by the state Convention on
the gath ult. The West Chester ye6ersonidn, a
well-known Democratic sheet, says:-
On the day before the convention several
Democrats went up to harrisburg from this
place to prevent, If possible, the party from
taxing the contemplated step. The first one of
the ring encountered on their arrival was H.
G. Smith, of the Lancaster Intelliqencer. From
him they learned that there was determination
to put through the substance of the Vallandig-
ham platform, he going so far as to say that he
was opposed to the repeal of the fifteenth
amendment.
In the evening, determined to seek the spring
head of this dark and hidden stream, r. E.
Monaghan, Esq, and Jos, Hemphill, Esq, re-
paired to the room of Hon. w. A. Wallace.
The conversation soon turned to the platform,
when wallace read some resolutions he had
prepared, and Myers some that he had written
both going the whole figure for the amend
nentS and the ntgger. Mr.. Wallace prefaced
the reading of his resolutions by the remark,
that he feared the first one (the negro one)
would not suit his friends from Chester After
hearing 1t read, the gentlemen from West
Chester condemned it in the severest terms,
saying that ii ooouId be ruinous to the party in
Chester county and throughout the Stdte-that
the record of the party was such on this ques-
tion that it would be impossible to rally it
upon such a platform X
And Monaghan, quite excited, arose from his
seat and said-"Well, gentlemen, l have not
yet learned TO be id scoundrel in politics !''
The ninth resolution was passed by 76
yeas to So nays. The announcement of the vote
was received with Kisses and some little ap-
plause. During the deSate the excitement was
intense, and much feeling was displayed on both
SIDES
William A. Wallace was then very properly
elected chairman of the State Central Commit
tee, in order that he might demonstrate to the
people of the State ho1o totally destitute Of con-
Sistency is a professional politician.
This whole affair was Job set up by lot of
scheming, huckstering politicians, headed by
such men as Lewis @. Cassidy, William A.
Wallace, B. F. Myers, senator Davis
of Berks, and others; and who no more repre-
sent the true sentiments and principles of the
Democratic party than do the edicts of the King
of Dahomey.
Our suggestion is, that there should be another
convention called, to expuuge this odious and
inconsistent resolution, treating it as the famous
resolutions of censure against Andrew jackson
were treated by drawing black lines around and
through Ii.

A SHARP TRICK.
A United States Marshal Outwi


A sharp trick was played yesterday in the
vicinity of LGffler's Garden, by a party who
had some time ago purchased piano from
the G9hle Factory, in Baltimore. 1t appears
that promised payments had not been made, and
SO the agent of the concern came to the city
yesterday to recover possession of the instru-
ment. He first went to the house and demanded
He then proceeded to the Marshal of the Dis
trict and after the arrangement of brief pre-
liminaries that officer armed with the proper
legal document. went to the house. and, finding
the door locked, broke 1t in, and entering seized
and levied on the piano, and brought it away.
AS the triumphant marshal and the agent left
the premises they received a note from the
party from whom they had seized 1t, in which
the writer expressed a fervent hope that the
agent would be satisfied with his bargain.
Away went the instrument the agent, the
deputy marshal and the specials, in great glee,
in furniture wagon.
But in order to comply with some legal form
1t became necessary to have the piano examined
by an expert, and its value estimated So the
party drove down to Ellis music store, and
transferred the prize to the interior for exami-
nation and valuation. 1t was locked A piano
key was produced, and the corner raised when

Mr.. Weller had in his mind when he proposed
his plan to Sam, for getting Mr. Pickwick out
of the Fleet Prison. 1t hadn't got no vurks
in it."
1t turned out that while the enterprising agent
was looking up the Marshal, somebody had
used good screwdriver with such expedition
that the entire action of the instrument had
been removed and spirited out of sight. The
agent now understood the meaning of the note
which he had received as the piano was being
a valuation on the instrument Washington

Meeting of the Stockholders of the New
Jersey yRailroad-MaiOrityf for the Lease.
The stockholders of the New Jersey Railroad
held meeting yesterday at Jersey City, which
was designated the regular annual meeting, but
which was really the gathering of the tribes
around the dying bed of old Camden and Am
boy. There was lachrymose expression about
the faces of a few men of the olden time
as they began to realize that the former
things had passed away. Dudley s. Gregory
was there, an advocate of the preservation of
selfgovernment in the New Jersey companies;
so were Nehemiah Perry and Martin A. Howell,
and above all Judge Black, of Mount Holly,
who made himself heard on the lease question.
He was on his feet throughout the entire discus
sion, though he is an old man, aud like the
prophet in Nineveh, warned his hearers to the
last against the ruinous consequences of the
proposed lease. He gave
FACTS AND FIGURES,
and though frequently interrupted, maintained
his protest against being called upon to witness
the signing of their death-warrant as corpora
tion possessing the finest railroad In the country.
John Q. Stevens, of Trenton, chief of the old
railroad block, sailed in under full canvas for
the lease, while pete" Duryea, of Newark, exc
cuted some admirable sparring maneuvres and
somersaults, while entertaining the meeting to q
harangue in favor of the measure. "Pete"
passes for q wit, and in his effort to cajole the
stubborn old gentleman of the opposition into
submission to the inevitable he was particularly
successful. Voorhees,, the good old anchorite
shook hands with "Pete" on the question, and
as they both passed out of the shade of the de-
parted, pete" triumphantly cried out, "a great
day for New Jersey!" Voorhees, responding,
"And for Pennsylvania"
OPPOSITION WAS FRUITLEss,
as it was evident the destroying angel had
passed over the assemblage during the mornng
hour. ''No use," said Perry; ''the thing Is evil
IDENTIFY fixed" And Nehemiah left for Long
Branch without waiting to drink, like the
others, to the days that are over. An election
for directors was held, and the following gen.
tlemen we're chosen:-Dudley s. Gregory, Henry
George r. Chetwood Martin A. Howell, Ferdi-
nand Suydam. Nehemiah Perry, and Isaac w.
Scudder. There was only one ticket, and the
result is an overwhelming vote in favor of the
lease. The number of shares voted on was

Terrible Casualty at Rochester.

Terrible Casualty at Rochester
From the Rochester Express, 5th.
On Saturday night, about 10 o'clock, a terrible
accident occurred on the corner of State and
Centre streets, which resulted in the death of a
young lady and the serious inju of three other
persons. At that time John Klenhanz was
driving team of horses belonging to Henry
wagon, on Jones street. Just then the 10 o'clock
Niagara Falls train came along, at which the
horses became frightened and started on q run,
dashing down Jones street at fearful pace.
The driver maintained his hold of the rens until
reaching the corner of Centre and Jones streets,
where in turning, he was thrown to the ground
with great force, the fall breakiag leg and one
of his arms, and bruising his body.
The maddened animals dashed onward with
increased speed through Centre to State street.
At this point gentleman, accompanied by two
ladies, was walking leisqrely oyer, the cross
walk. Their namesIare Henry Hawley, Amanda
Hawley and Mary Green. They did not notice
the approach of the team, and were knocked
PROSTATE upon the ground. immediately large
crowd collected, and the injured parties were
taken up and conveyed into a store.
On examination it was found that two of the
persons were injured severely, and one, Amanda
Hawley, 1t was thought fatally. She was in
sensible when taken up, and in terrible agony.
Under the influence of stimulants she was re-
turned TO consciousness for a short time. Blood
issued from her mouth, and 1t soon became ap-
parent that her injuries were OF fatal nature.
1t was decided to remove all three sufferers to
the City Hospital, whittier they were accompa-
MED by physicians.
Deceased was a relative of Henry Hawley, the
injured man, whose thigh-bone was found to
be fractured, and his head and body badly cut
and bruised.

THE PITTSTON DISASTER.
A Card from Mine Inspector Williams.

Card from Mine Inspector Williams.
T. NJ. Williams, Inspector of Coal Mines, who
was censured for neglect of duty by the Coro-
ners Jury in the recent investigation concerning
the Pittston coal mine disaster, has issued a
card to the public in order to refute what he
calls ''the many vile reports and ISLANDERS" which
have been circulated in the newspapers as to
his responsibility for the calamity After allud-
ing 10 the coroners inquest as that farce of a
jury" and complaining that he was expelled
from the inquest because he informed the coro-
ner that he was not competent to conduct 1t, he
shifts the responsibility for the accident on the
Superintendent of the mine by the following
statement

If any of them belonged to the slope that we
had seen before. He said, Eyes, that those
men from the slope were there on din

on into the west gangway and airway. Returned
to place where they were making new

drick said ''No, not now; they have been, but

four chambers and a gangway were at work at

and some new hands were employed to do so
From there we went to the return airway at
foot of shaft; measured the air at the same
place that Kendrick made out report a few days
previous and sent to me; my measurement (with
him there to see it done) was 1880 cubic feet per
minute at foot of upcast shaft. For the three

to was 5000 cubic feet; and when 1 mea-
