lied power. The public welfare requires
the supremacy of the civil over the mill
tary authority, and the freedom of person
under the protection of the habeas corpus.
We demand for the individual the largest
! liberty consistent with public order, for
the States self'g government, and for the ma
ton return to the methods of peace and
the constitutional limitation of power
Fifth. The civil service ofthe government
has become mere instrument of partizan
tyranny and personal ambition, and an OBJ
ject OF selfish greed. 1t is q scandal and
reproach upon our free institutions, and
breeds decentralization dangerous to the
perpetuity ofrepublican government. We,
therefore, regard a thorough reform of the
civil service as one Of the most pressing ne
cessitics of the hour; that honesty, capa-
city and fidelity constitute the only valid
claims to public employment; that the of
! fees OF the government cease to be a mat
ter Of arbitrary favoritism and patronage,
| and that public stations become again posts
of honor. To this end it is imperatiyely
required that no President shall be can
didate for reelection.
Sixth. We demand system of federal
taxation which shall not unnecessarily in
tertere with the industry of the people, and
which shall provide means necessary to
pay the expenses of the government, econ
omically administered, pensions, the inter
est on the public debt, and moderate re-
duction, annually, of the principal thereof,
and recognizing that there are in our midst
honest but irreconcllable differences of opin-
ion with regard to the respective systems
of protection and free trade, we remit dis
cussion of the subject to the people in their
congressional districts, and to the decision
OF Congress thereon, wholly free of execu-
tive interference or dictation.
Seventh. The public credit must be sa-
credly maintained, and we denounce repu-
diation in every form and guise.
Eighth. A speedy return to specie pay-
ments is demanded alike by the highest
considerations of commercial morality and
honest government.
Ninth. We remember with gratitude
the heroism and sacrifices of the soldiers
and sailors ofthe republic, and no act of
ours shall ever detract from their Justly
earned fame or the full reward of their pa
triotism.
Tenth. We are opposed to all further
grants of lands to railroads or other
corporations. The public domain should
be held sacred to actual settlers.
Eleventh. We hold that it is the duty
OF the government in its intercourse with
foreign nations to cultivate the friendship
of peace by treating with all on fair and
equal terms, regarding it alike dishonora-
BILE either to demand what is not right or
to submit to what is wrong.
Twelfth. For the promotion and success
of these vital principles, and the support
of the candidates nominated by this con-
vention, we invite and cordially welcome
the cooperation of all patriotic citizens
without regard to previous political affilia-
ton.

William Rowe was punished lately
in Western city for beating his wife
with hoe, and a local paper objects that
the punishment was illegal, on the ground
that a man has right to hoe his own
Rowe.
"A vacancy having occurred in GER
tain church by the resignation of the organ
list, the trustees advertised for a candidate
for organist, music teacher, etc. Among
the numerous replies to the advertisement
was the following: Gentlemen: l notice
your advertisement for organist and music
teacher, either lady or gentleman. Hav-
ing been both for some years, | offer you
my services"
Everything in nature INDUCES in
amusement of some kind. The lightnings
play, the winds whistle, the thunders roll,
the rills and cascades sing and dance, the
waves leap, the fields smile, the vines creep
and run, the buds shoot, and the hills have
tops to play with. But some of them have
their seasons of melancholy. The tempests
moan, the zephyrs sigh, the brooks muir
muir, and the mountains look blue.
DIR. C., of Sy camore, ILL.,, riding in
the country one day, saw a sign upon
gatepost, reading thus This farm for
Sail" Stopping his horse, he hailed lit
tie old woman who stood on tip-toe hang
ing out clothes. 81 say, madam, when is
this farm going to saH?" "Just as soon,
sir" replied the old lady, placing her thumb
to her nose, "as anybody comes along who
can raise the wind !" The doctor drove
thoughtfully on.
"A worthy Scotch couple, when asked
how their son had broken down so early
in life, gave the following explanation:
"When we began life together we worked
hard and lived upon porridge and such like,
gradually adding to our comforts as our
means improved, until we were able to dine
off bit ofroast meat and sometimes BOLT
chickie, Chicken y but Jack, our son, he
worked backward, and began with the
chickie first"
The Spaniards have saying that a
wife should resemble three things, and yet
differ from these same things. First, she
should be like snail, which always guards
its house, but she should not carry the
house with her whenever she goes out. Sc
cond, she should be like an echo, which
speaks only after the other is finished, but
she should not always have the last word
Third, she should be like the town clock,
which always sounds the hours with regu-
larity, but she should not sound so loud
that the whole town shall hear it.

MY OLD LOVE.

hear in the thcket the brookletS fall
A thrush on the lilac spray
Sings, us Of old, the vespcr song
Ofthe slowly waning day;
And the fragrance comes down from the chest
nut trees.
In the meadow where dai sizes blow,
AS it came when the tender twilight came,
In the spring long ago.
Far over the dark and shadowy woods,
Comes floating the Church BELLS chime,
AS wander and dream in the fading light,
AS dreamed in the odcn time,
When | fingered under the chestnut boughs,
Till hushed was the birds sweet strain,
And the shimmcrng light of the moonbeams
fell,
On the leaves like silver rain.
But never again shall wait and watch,
In the hush of the sweet Spring night.
For step in the depth of the rusting copse,
And the CLEAN of garment white.
And never again, meath the dew-gemmed
flowers,
Shall linger my love and |,
When the tremulons stars through the Aeecy
bars
Look out in the western sky.
Yet a joy which is nameless and strangely sad
Throbs oft in my hearts deep core,
AS the sweet, sweet love of the days long fled
Is thrilled into life once more.
o dear was | to the heart that is cold
And her love o ershadows me still
And the stars shine down on her grave TO-
night

1t will be observed that Mr.. Bucka'
lew voted to take up the bill for consid'
Grafton and passage, so that the prior
act of the 25th of June should be nc
longer exposed to misconstruction and
its proper and benevolent objects defeat
ed. Though this effort to vindiSate the
law failed at that time, it is gratifying
to know that subsequently, under the
pressure of public opinion. the Govern
ment, ,or the administration, gave tC
the law its just construction and applied
il in practice. The Hours.oflabor
act of 1865 stands upon the statute book
of the United States to the honor oi
those who passed it, and has, upon trial
vindicated itself against all objections.

The Later Logan.

"Lo, the poor Indian" once more re
appears under the name of LOGAN, bu
now with pouch too well filled to per
NIT US to fix upon him the stigma O
pauperism. 1t seems that the sudden
conversion of Senator LOGAN from 9
bitter enemy into burning advocate
of Grant was effected by the same mys.
tic force which, according to tradition
will make the mare 60, and a fortiori
the mule.
An appropriation of 100000 to feed
and clothe rather less than Ave hundred
noble redmen in the Northwest known
as the Teton Sioux brought LOGAN to
terms. For it is not true of the later
ILLINOIS LOGAN, as of the earlier In
diau LOGAN, that "his blood runs in
the veins of no living creature" On
the contrary, with the exception per-
haps of Grants, no mans blood runs
more freely and profltably in the veins
of living creatures than the blood OF
LOGAN. And LOGAN having presen-
ted to the President kinsman and
nam esake of his as the proper person
to control and disburse the half million
aforesaid,the President promptly hand
ed the matter over to him. Persons
on the spot estimate the necessary out
lay of LOGAN on the Western lodges
at about 5000. This will leave him
at liberty to practise "division" and
silence" with his Senatorial namesake.
1t would have been strange indeed if
with 475,OOO shining reasons for a
change of heart LOGAN had remained
