A GALLO LEGEND.

THB TRAVELLER AND HIS FRlbNpS
GALLO LEGEND
gentleman, about to make
trip at sea, was begged 10 take
Commissions for a dozen friends:
One wants a watch; another sends
For wine.-"A very special cask;
And-if 10 IS not too much 10 ask
Some choice cigars box will do; -,
Or while you re at IL, purchase two"
Another friend would like PAIR
OF boots.-"They re so much cheaper there'
lady friend would have him BUY Ay
Rome laces.-"H they re not too hgh;
Another wants box Of gloves
French kids, you know, are real loves
Thus one wants this; another, that;
book, a bonnet, or a hat
Enough 10 make the moody man
$50 high their " small commissions ran
In tale and bulk repent that nc
Had ever thought 10 cross the seal
Moreover-be il here remarked
Before the gentleman embarked,
His friends for fear he might forget
Their little errands, plainly set
Their wishes down IN black and white;
sensible prOceeding-qute
Rut-as il happened-nOt friend
with one exoephon) Thought TO send
The ready money, ana 10 say, -.
"see here s the cash you'll have 10 pay :!
The man embarks; sees Paris, Rome,
And other cities; then comes nome
We'll pleased with much that met his eye;
But having somehow, failed TO buy
A single thing for any friend,
Except the one who thought TO send
The wherewithal. Well, need say
That soon his neighbOrs came to pay
Their greetings at his safe return,
And charming health; and (als0l learn
About their little errands,-wDat
For each the traveller had gOtf
Nv love Z" he said, cit makes me SAD
To think what wretched luck had!
For as at sea sat one day
Arranging IN proper way
The papers you : kindly sent,
gale arose, and OF they went
Into the ocean! nor cOuld go
Remember aught you bade me 0uy!
"But" grumbled one, " If that were so,
How comes il, sir, yOu chanced 10 know
What This mGR's eTrand was for ne
Has GOT what he desired, we see'
"Faith! SO he has,-beyOnd doubt!
And this Is how IL came about:
His memorandum chanced to hold
A certain sum Of solid gold;
And thus the paper by its weight
Escaped the others windy fateV
As contrast to the preceding we will quote MI
,aIe's quaint version Of
THB VISION OF THE FAITHFUL.
Iypon the faithful in the common things
EuiOiued OF Duty, rarest blessings wait.
A pi0us Nun Tan ancient volume brings
The legend and the lesson, while she sate
Reading some scriptures Of the sacred word
And marveling much at Christ's exceeding grace
raw I'D her room . Vision OF the Lord
With sudden spendOr filling ali the place
Xhereat she knet enraptured; when a DeH
Signaled her hour 10 feed the cOnVents poor
which humble duty done, she sought her cell,
And loi the Vision, brighter than before,
Who smiling spake even so Is Heaven obtained
I-hadst thou fingered here-had not remained!
The author has no doubt found recreation, If not
amusement in stringing these rhymes together, and
many readers will probably repeat the same experience

preserve the purits of the Bench and
made it possible for those in search Of
Justice at the hands of the Court of last
resort that an impartial judgment shall
there be melted out to them.
We are not of those weak sentimental
lists who reecho that mendacious plausi-
biity that Judges should be above poll
tics" Judges are but men: and beneath
the surface of politics lie principles Of
government life within which are ger
minated the very tap roots and feeders of
statutory enactments; and until the
Bench assumes something akin to SUI
perhuman character and loses its sympa-
thies with humanity, its members must
and will have, and will exhibit their polit-
ical proclivities and sentiments. And
while We say this We also lay it down as
something which may not proitably be
controverted, That political parties should
not hold their mere partizan schemes as
above those public necessities which can
only be dispensed with at the peril of
the purity, dignity and usefulness Of the
Judiciary.

PRESIDENT GRANTS SOLICITUDE
FOR EOREIGN MIGRANTS.

While Carl Schurz was connecting his
conspiracy against President Grant he
(the Presidency was preparing his mes
sage to Congress; and in doing SO he did
not forget that the countrymen Of this
same Carl Schurz we're sadly in need,
when landing upon our shores, of some
other sort Of assistance, advice and en-
couragement than such as can be derived
from the vaporings to which they are
daily treated by demagogues and mischief
makers of the stripe to which belongs the
Senator from Missouri no matter which
one-they are so sadly alike in DISPOSE
ton and purpose.) In that message the
President made the following wise and
humane suggestions, the wisdom and
timeiness of which should not be for
gotten by those who entertain an inter-
est in the well being of the natives of
Europe who are constantly coming to this
asylum of the oppressed of all nations:
The number of immigrants ignorant ofsour
laws and habits coming into the country coutinu-
ally has become SO great and the inpesitions
practiced upon them so numerous and fragrant,
that suggest Congressional action for their
protection. 1t seems to me . fair subject for
legislation by Congress- l cannot now state a.
fully rs desire the nature Of the complaints
made by immigrants of the treatment they re-
ceive, but will endeavor to do 50 during this
session Of Congress- particularly ii the subject
should receive your attention.
There is more ''nutriment'' in such a
well considered suggestion as this than
can be found in o fathom of Carl Schurz's
criticisms of Grants Admins
tratiOn.
The new daily appeal. [volume] (Carson City, Nev.) 1872-1873, 1872-09-13

Here lisa nut for the Concretes to crack,
if they can: While Carl Schuz in Feb
ruary last was cudgelling his brain and
exhausting the gall and bitterness of his
jaundiced constitution to trump up false
and untenable charges against Grant,
Grants administration ,oas paying cf .ft-
teen millions Of the public debt and in the
succeeding month Of March, while SchurE
and Sumner were putting their heads to-
gether to deceive the people into the be-
lief that they had made out their case and
proven that the administration had been
guilty of an infraction of our neutral OBJ
legations with Germany {when they knew
full well that no such disregard of our in
.ernational obligations had either been
made or contemplated) during that month
of March while Mephistopheles Schurz
and Polonious Sumner were maliciously
contriving to fasten this false impression
upon the public mind, G,unfs adsaasis-
tratiOa reduced the national debt BY more
than t,relre millions Of dollars. Who was
doing the honester business? Who was
more strennously exciting himself for the
good name and fame of this nation then?
Grant or Schurz? Which was the most
patriotic endeavor-an attempt to fix up
on the American government the stigma
of having deliberately proven itself false
to its obligations to a friendly power? or
so conducting the financial affairs Of the
country as to make our institutions res
pected by the people living under that
power-people who, more generally than
those Of any European nationality hold
the binds of this governments? The peo-
pie all along from the pine topped hills
of Maine to the vine clad slopes of the
Golden State are answering these quSs-
hons; and their answer thrusts his ma
Iignans slanders down the false throat Of
he mendaeious Schurz and confounds
nth an overwhelming and insurmount-
Ible confusion the sore psted and mean
'pirited egotist who now, for the last
ime represents loyal Massachusetts, in
he Senate of the United States. Glory

She had spent some miserable weeks at Spa, but sine was too proud to. write and ask me to explain myself; at the Dufferkins' dinner she heard of me from Mir.

 The arrival of Tom with the pony phaeton put an end to the tete-0-tete; and there was great commotion when we arrived at the house. Mrs. Montague embraced her daughter as if she had just come m from heading forlorn hope, and bestowed tragical scowl on me when inadvertent- ly asked if the doctor had come yet for
 Geraldine. MT. Bottletop stood look ing on with face absolutely funereal, which knew to be the very verge of burst of laughter. Miss Werter, being a strong minded charmer, wanted to cut my coat of. and volunteered the information that she was remarable clever at binding up wounds, and never felt faint at the sight of blood: to which interesting facts every one, including myself, displayed the most chilling indifference. Her younger sister, on the contrary, went in- to mysteries on discovering certain mys- terious gory traces on the back of Geral- dine's waist.
 "My dear, you'll die if you have been shot here," said the eldest Miss Werter consolngly; and, at the sight of Geral- dine's crimson cheeks, Mir. Bottletop sud denly exploded into an ectasy of laughter, and rushed out the hall door.

THE BRIDGEPORT TMURDER.-Seven thous- and dollars reward has been offered for the detection of the murderers of Captain Colvocoresses, but the officers seem to be completely at loss to find any clue, those that they supposed they did have prov ing to be worthless. In connection with Captain Colvocoresses, the following incident is told: During the war he had command of the corvette St. Marys, and was on duty at Valparaiso, Chili, when 8 powerful Spanish squadron was threaten ing it. One morning he sailed in theharbor between the Spanish fleet and the city, and was informed by the Spanish admiral that he intended to. lombard the city, and un- less he moved his sloop the Spaniards
 would not be responsible for the conse- quences. This reused the ire of the Greek and he hastened to inform the Spanish admiral, Ill language that was model of expicitness and force, that the St. Mary's was anchored to his perfect satisfaction, and would remain where she was, and addedfurther: '1n the event of lombard ment of the city, l beg of you, sir. to have care that none of your shot touch the hull of the St. Mary's. lam perfectly aware of the weakness of my corvette in
 comparison with the powerful squadron of her most Catholic majesty now block ading the port, but beg sir, to remind you that the flag that floats at her peak represents three thousand guns on the sea-" The correspondence was printed
 in the Spanish papers, and, besides erea- ting the greatest enthusiasm for the plucky captain, rather opened the eyes of the Chilenos to the tremendous force of the American navy at that time. But this ac- tion subsequently, caused him him no lit tie inconvenience, for whenever he showed himself on shore he found himself imme- diately surrounded by a crowd of enthu- siastic citizens, who attributed the inn munity of their city for long time after ward to his refusal, and who made the hills ring with the vivas for the 'brave American. s--- a,.
