There Comes a Time.

. . . =
There comes n time when we grow old
And like sunset down the sea,
Slopes gradually, and tho night wind cold
Comes whispering sad and chilingly;
e,.tti And looks are gray
AS winters day,
And eyes Of saddcst blue behold
The leaves all weary drift away,
And lips Of faded coral soy, N
There comes q time when we grow old.
There comes n ijme when joyous hearts,
Which leaped us leaps the lnughing main,
Arc dead to oil save memory
AS prisoner in the dungeon chain;
And dawn Of dny
Hath passed away, 0
The moon hath into darkness rolled,
and by Tho cmbcrs wan and gray
hear voice in whisper say,
There comes a time when we grow old,
There comes time when manhood's primo
Is sl,rouded in the mist OF years,
and beauty, fnding like dream
Hath passed away in silent toars;
And then; how dark
But OH, the spark,
Tint kindled youth to hues Of gold,
Still burns with clear and steady ray,
And fond affections, lingering. say.
There comes u time when we grow old,
There comes time when laughing spring
And golden summer cease to be-
And we put on the autumn robe,
10 tread tho lust declvity;
But now The slope,
With rosy Hope.
Beyond the sunset wo behold,
Another dawn with fairer light,
While watches whisper through tho night,
There c es o time when We grow old.

DATE OF THE CRucIrIx1oN.-A dstiu.
guished German scholar, Herr Kelb, in re-
Gently published work, considers that he has
settled beyond dispute the true date of the
cruci6xion He shows that there was total
eclipse of the moon concomitant with the
earthquake which occurred when Julius
Caesar was assassinated on the 18th of March,
Is. g., Al. He has also calculated the Jew
ish calender to A. D. 81, and the result of
his researches confirms the facts recorded by
the Evangclists of the wonderful physical
events that accompanied the cruciGxion.--
His astronomical calculations also shows that
on the 9th of April, A, D. 81, there was to-
tai eclipse OF the sun, accompanied, in all pro-
bab'Ilty, by the earthquake spoken of in
Matthew. This mode Of reckoning is veri-
he'd by another calculation, made by calcula-
ting backward from the great total eclipse of
April, 1918, which also gives April as the
date of the new moon, A. D 81 AS the
vernal equinox of the year fell on March 25
and tho Jews ate their Easter lamb and
celebrated their Feast of the Passover on the
following new moon, it is clear April was
identified with Nisan 18th of the Jewish cal.
endar, which moreover, was on Friday, the
day of preparation for the Sabbath, aud this
agrees with the Hebrew Talmud, SO that as.
tronomy, archaeology, tradition and Biblicai
history seem to unite in fixing the date OF
the cruciGxion at April 6, A. D. 81.

NASHVILLE, May 26Y-The Germans oi
Nashville held a meeting last night, G. O.
Giers presiding, and p. R. Albert and

made in favor Of Greeley and Brown and
the Liberal Republican movement, by j.
B. Jeup, editor OF thes sEniordnt, General
Trauernlcht, A. Hltsfeld, Of Memphis,
and others. Resolutions were adopted
renouncing all former party alliances and
assuming position Of neutrality until a
new party may be framed based upon
honest principles and true republicanism;
indorSing the platform OF the Cincinnati
Convention and pledging their votes to
Greeley and Brown; congratulating the
country upon the passage Of the general
amnesty law as one Of the good effects OF
the Cincinnati Convention; expressing
gratitude to Greeley for his course
during the Franco German war; declar.
ing they will hereafter support no
man for Office OF any kind merely
because he is q party candidate, but
will vote for the best and most honest,
and in conclusion demand for the German
proportionate share Of republic officers.
The meeting was large and enthusiastic.
Voorhees, Terre Haute speech, published
this morning, is universally condemned
by all Democrats and other supporters Of
Mr.. Greeley. It plesses only Grants
friends. The Union and American, the
Democratic organ, regards it as contain
ing all that could be said against Greeley,
and says his friends must recognize that
influences are at work against the adop-
ton Of him at Baltimore. To meet these
influences and secure the consummation
desired, all true friends Of the Cincinnati
nominees, it says, should close ranks,
ignore petty quibbling and put their
shoulders Stogether to the work before
them.

the opposition to Grant and whose cleo.
tion Is an absolute impossibility, and dc.
mands that his pledge'to withdraw in case
his candidacy would not unite the oppo.
sition should now be fulfilled. It further
says: 1.-THE Cincinnati meeting having
failed to present a candidate who can

comes now the duty ofthe Baltimore Con-
vention TO furnish such a candidate. either

ting measures for holding a general Con-
vention OF the opposition under the style
ot a new political organization, and in
which all the several parts OF the opposi.

method must be adopted. Some earnest
effort must be made TO remedy the lamen.
table failure Of the Cincinnati meeting by
presenting to the country a Presidential
