TO more than Roman imperialism.
denOunce the attempt to weaken US by a
studied policy Of arraying the blacks against
the whites. denounce the designs Of barba-
rizing US ny the corrupt and irresponsible rule
of men from the North who have no common

and waste our substance.
denounce the attempt TO reverse the natural
order Of things, by subjecting to constitution
al changes aud ingeniously contrived laws the
intelligence and property Of the South, 10 iQ-
nornnce and paupersm
denounce the eDmity Of the Grant rule 10
the Independence Of Cuba, because they know
that Cuba must, in interest, finally gravitate
toward and belong to the South
denounce the union Of the powers Of the

The Burning of Moscow.

AS Napoleon Bonaparte was marching his
army into Moscow on September Is, 1872, the
Russian authorities determined to burn the
city rather than to allow it to be occupied by
him. They accordingly distributed combus-
tible material throughout the city, ready to be
lighted should his army enter it. His entry
and attempted occupation Of Moscow, and the
subsequent burning Of the city by the Russians,
are matters of history, from which we quote
the following;
On Wednesday, September Is, 1912, Ma
noleon took up his headquarters in the Krem-
lin, and on the same day the fire broke out in
the shops Of the kital Gored. The night Of
the 10th was Illuminated by the fire Of a gen
eral coufagration The explosion of the bal
looms Of flame which were seen falling from
the tops Of towers showed the means which
were being taken TO spread the fire. A vast
sea Of flame illuminated the horizon for miles
and announced TO the unhappy Moscovtes
who still fingered near town that their homes
no longer existed. The different quarters of
the town took fire. burned and disappeared
all at once. Heaps of calcined and blackened
stones indicated the spot where houses had
stood. The silence OF terror was only inter-
rupted by roarng like that of the waves of
a stormy sea; this was produced by the wind,
driving with violence, the torrent of fame hur-
red far and wide the destroying clement
a crash. Wherever the eye turned nothing
conld be seen but smoking ruins or devourng
flames. Ever and anon was heard the mourn
full toll Of n bell which sounded like the sig
nal passed between one and another of equal
destruction. In spite of tho vigilance of the
scntries posted at the houses, the fire spread as
it it had been driven by an invisible power.
Although n great part Of the town was built
of wood, it took many days Of general con-
migration 20 consume it. AT last in most
quarters of the town there were left so few
traces of habitetons that the streets could
hardly lie recognized. Human bodies half
burned, and the dead carcasses Of horses, cows
and dogs, lay in the midst Of the ruins. B.
600 houses, besides great number of palaces
were reduced to ashes; scarcely 5000 build
ings were left standing. The private loss by
the destruction Of the houses and their con-
tents was calculated at not less than $50, 000-
600 sterling $3.50, 900, 0O0), and this was
probably under the mark The first torch
which set Moscow ablaze was said to have
been applied by Count Rostopchone, the gov
rrnor Of the city.

OUR OWN.

If had known in the morning
How YEARLY all the day
The words unkind would trouble my mind
That said when you went away,
had been more careful, darling,
Nor given you needless pain
But we vex our own with look and tone
We might never take back again.
For though in the quiet evening
You may give the kiss ofpeace,
Yet it well might be that never for mo
The pain of the heart should cease
How many go forth at morning
Who never come at night;
And hearts have broken for harsh words spoken
That sorrow can ne'er set right.
We have careful thought for the stranger,
And smiles of the sometime guest;
But oft for our own the bitter tone,
Though we love our own the best.
All lips with the curve impatient,
All brow with the shade OF scorn,
'Twere cruel fate, were the night too late
To undo the work of morn
