Middle-Age.

Tie sun OF life has crossed the line:
The summer-shine OF lengthened light
Faded and failed, till where stand
IT'S equal day and equal night.
One after one, as dwindling hours,
Youths glowing hopes have dropped away,
And soon may barely leave the CLEAN
That coldly scores winters day.
! am not young; am not old;
The dush OF morn, the sunset calm,
Paling aud deepening, each to each,
Meet midway with solemn charm.
One side see the Summer fields
Not yet dsrobed OF all their green;
While westerly. along the nils
Flame the first tints OF frosty sheen.
All, middle point. where cloud and storm
Make battle ground Of this, my lie
Where even matched, the night and day
Wage round me their September strife
bow me to the threatening gale;
know when that is overpast,
Among the peaceful harvest days,
An Indian Summer comes at last

The public schools in Aboevlils were s"s-

mus requiring the school commissioners to
countersign orders for their pay during the
suspension, which orders were drawn by the
trustees of the district. Judge Orr decides:

This plea was ovcrruled by Judge BAR

From this decision Of Judge BARNETT an

the question wns deliberately arg,fcd again.
The unanimous Judgment OF the General

In every respect that previously rendered

President GRANT II now surrounded by
extraordinary chances of distinction, and
the problem is whether he has the sense
and ability TO Improve them.
In 1867, while ANDREW JOHNSON was still
In power, Gen. GRANT, in conversation
with Mr GEORGE WILKES, avowcd himself
m favor of limiting the tenure of the
President To "a single term. Since then cir
runs stances have induced him to change
Lfs views on this question, or, as DIR. GREE
10y expires cs II, he has gone into another
ne ui business. We trust, however, that
this change IN hi, sentiments will prove
tut temporary.
After Gen. JACKSON had become Presi|
dent for second term ho recommended in
his annual message In December, 1888, that
all possibility OF the reelection of Presi-
dent, and all thc temptations and mischief
connected with IL. should he removed by

Greeley.
The returns of the votes thrown at the
recent election are hardly complete In
single State: but so far a. they have come
in they lead irrcsistibly TO the conclusion
that Notwithstanding the heavy majorities
Gen. GRANT has obtained, the number OF
votes he has received i'm those States which
took part in the Presidential contest of
1868 is less now than it was then. This
would be q most significant fact in any
event, but II Is especially striking because,
on account Of the increase of population
and the participation of n large mass Of
negroes for the first time in Presidential
election, the number OF persons entitled to
vote IL very much larger now than II was
I'm 1863.
Among the states In which the returns
already render it certain that GRANTS
vote is diminished are Maine, New Hamp-
SHIRE, Vermont, and Connecticut in the
East, and Illinois in the West This seems
an almost incredible result in Illinois,
GRANTS own state, and where he has such
great majority, for probably the voting
population of no state in the Uuion has
shown n larger percentage Of increase
since 1868 than Illinois.
During the pnst four wears the popula-
tion OF Pennsylvania has rapidly increased
Not only has its number of voters been
oorrespondlngly enlarged on this account,
but all Its colorcd men were now for the
first time permitted to go to the polls.
Notwithstanding all this GRANTS vote In
Pennsylvania is only 7,i0o larger than IL
was in 1865. so far rs the returns are yet
In from New York and Indiana, IL is ap-
parent that the results win be about the
same in those States rs in Pennsylvania.
But this Is only a partial view of the
case. Gov. sEYMorR's defeat after the
October elections four years ago was re-
garded rs just a. certain rs was that OF DIR.
GREELEY after the October elections OF the
present year: and this assurance of ult
| mate failure in the Presidential contest OF
| 1868 ought to have eXerted, one would
naturally suppose, as chilling an influence
upon the masses of the Democracy then
NJ il certainly did now.
| But in spite OF those disasters to the De
mocrucy In October, 1863, which rendered
sEYMoCR's election in November n politi-
cal impossibility, he was beaten in Penn
| sylvania only 5000, he carried New York
by 10000, and he lost Indiana by only 1900
whereas, though the vote now given 10
GRANT in those states is scarcely increased
at all, he beats DR.. GREELEY In Pennsyl-
vania, 1900, in New York 5000, and in
Indiana upward OF 20,O00.
What is the inference from this curious
state OF facts? Do GRANTS heavy majori-
ties prove that ne has increased in popu'
laIity since he entered the White House
BY no means; for his supporters are fewer
now than they were then. But we are
panied to be obliged TO say that the fair
deduction from these facts seems to be that
under the peculiar and trying exigencies
of the campaign DR.. GREELEY has proved
TO be a very weak candidate and not a
very strong one, as We had hoped ana sup
| posed him 10 be.
