WHITE PINE NEWS
SEA FOAM

fThe following lines appeared originally in the
found Table. They have attracted much atten-
ION, and have been very generally copied by the
'ress throughout the United States.l
The sun is a golden goblet
Up1ung by the ~revellef Day
How the red wine CLOVIS and sparkles
AS he reels on his bacchanal way
And the mermaids rise to greet him
Up from their coral caves,
And they chant him a chant Of welcome
That sounds like the plash Of the waves.
They leave the mermen lonely
Far down In their dim sea hall,
And they fawn at the feet of the fair young Day,
Those fond niermaidens all.
Their passionate pale faces
Are upturned pleadingly,
And their floating tresses fall and rise
Wrfsthed with the foam o. the sea.
But wearied a. last of wassail
TIL ~reveller sinks to sleep,
And the wine from the fallen goblet
Pours purple over the deep.
And 10 those sad mermaidens
Shrek out in wild despair,
And dash white breasts on the cruel rocks
Amid the breakers there.
Then up the mermen swarming
Laugh loud in scornful glee,
And hale the shining corses
Far out along the sea.
Their passionless pale faces
Are uptnrned mournfully,
And their trailing tresses fall and rise,
Floating like foam on the sea.

AFFAIRS OF GENERAL HowARp.-The
following statement is based on Informal
ton from an official source The nc
counts of General Howard and his officers
show a deficiency of Sl1,00 though only
a small portion is in the name of Gene
raj Howard. He admits that he has a
balance of So, 000, which he is ready to
pay over to the proper officers. Nearly
one-half the deficits are charged in the
account of the subordinate formerly on
duty in the West. Letters have been re-
ceived from colored men who served in
the army and navy, stating that they
never received their bounty, though in
some cases the accounts show to the
contrary. 1t will require investigation
to ascertain whether forged entries have
been made, or the statement in the let
tiers is false. The accounts have to I'M
dergo further examination by the col
~lectors, and their figures may be changed
either for or against Howard, should
those officers differ from others in the
construction of the various laws bearing
upon the subject. All agree that there
has been some dishonesty on the part of
subordinates, though it is not believed
the defalcation will amount to as much
as is generally supposed.

Their strong suit is to make trouble and
bustles, and the proficiency they have
acquired is the c%onundrum Of the age.
In a game of talk they invariably hold
the right bower or take the ace with the
king. They are totally ignorant Of the
rules Of civilized warfare, and never let

can look pretty and ugly, happy and sor-
