Love-Life.
BY JOSEPH BRADFORD.

She bends above me like a night
Deep-skied and tropic-starred;
Her face cline of peace wherefr0m
All sorrow is debarred.
She drops above me like spell
All potent in repose,
While from her mouth the kisses fell,
Like rose-leaves from rose.
| cannot move for utter bliss,
Her beauty weighs me down;
1t broods about me like a sea.
Wherein dream and drown;
The water wleIds me at its will.
Along with all sea things,
Hilher and thither swayed and sent
In endless .iourneyings.
O! rare strange face. within whose rount
Glad things and sad things meet;
Sufficient sweetness. yet made up
Oh things diversely sweet;
Your beauty bends the souls of men,
As a wind bends the wheat,
And they who cannot reach your lips
Die happy at your feet.
lie inert, take no care
For better or for worse;
Her beauty bears me diZzilv
safe through the universe;
One moment sunk in SoundlesS depths,
Aud the next skyward driven,
The buoyant blossom of her face
Floats me as high as heaven,

Like an honest old gentleman Mr.. John
Bull has walked up to the captains Office
and settled at last. The Geneva award
fifteen and half million dollars in god-was
paid yesterday to Secretary Fish, and is now
safely in the Treasury of the United States.
At least we presume it is there, since bows
have been made, hands shaken and official
documents exchanged by the British Minister
the British Consul General and the American
Secretaries of State and of the Treasury
The payment was in the shape of certificates
of coin deposits in various banks, which have
taken the job of making up the amount for
consideration or commission. This COM
mission will, we presume, be paid by Great
Britain. At all events, we are informed that
Mr.. Secretary Fish has, in dignifed and
diplomatic manner, refused to have any,
thing to say or do with the bankers who
took the contract to furnish the amount

not been for timely assistance from otnef
sources we might have been obliged to publish
frightful death record. We think, and we be-
lieve the community will endorse the opinion,
that the captain of the st. John is open to
severe censure for his negligence or criminal
Indifference under the circumstances He is
certainly not to blame for the fragile character
of the railing, that could not withstand pres
sure upon it that might occur almost at any
time-for this the proprietors of the line may
be held responsible-but he is certainly to
blame for not doing something for the rescue
of the drowning people. The instincts of
humanity would certainly dictate this, and we
trust the commander of the st. John did not
reach Albany yesterday morning with any feel
ings of self-satisfacton for what he had done,
or, rather, for what he had neglected to do.
The fact is these Albany boats during the
summer season, when pleasure travel is SO
great, are run with but little regard to the
comfort of passengers. All that seems to be
thought of is to grab the passage and state
room money; after that passengers must look
out for themselves, the women and children
particularly, 30 far as the chief officers of the
boats are concerned We hope there will be
some investigation into this accident by the
steamboat inspectors, in order to ascertain
whether the st. John was supplied with the
necessary life-preservers and other apparatus
for saving life in cases like that under con-
sideration, or whether the failure to employ
them in this instance was the result of crim-
nal indifference on the part of the officers of
the boat.

Our National Guard and the Crccdmoor
Range.

The phrase that history repeats itself is an
explosive expression common to common
people, History is not repeater. The ever
changing, ever ranging shades of social and
political thought that shadow like, run be-
fore advancing forms belle the stereotyped ex-
preston. We are Independent of history,
making history all the days we live. 1t may
seem that we follow examples set by Europe;
but the truth is that we follow no copyists, but
are ever ready to improve on all suggestions
made to us. We were once persuaded
that the magnificent army the English
called into existence on paper when
Napoleon the Little S" colonels clamored
to be led on the English Downs were perfec-
ton. We have seen what the English volun-
teers could do, and we know what they are
incapable of doing. We share in their sue
cessful experience and profit by their faults.
We have near the metropolis a rifle range
equal to any the English volunteer soldiery
claim as their own, and public spirited citi-
zens of means to see that the object of those
who instituted the range shall not be prosti-
tuted to unworthy purposes. The rifle range
at Creedmoor is now national institution, and
is worthy of nationa, support; for if our finely
uniformed militia can ever be effective they
will owe it to the National Rife Association
An armed militia without discipline and skill
in the use of the rife is scarcely less terrible
in an agitated city than mob with brick
bats. The gentlemen who are responsible
for Creedmoor deserve well of the State, and
are entitled to the huzzas of every regiment
in the National Guard and of every person
who believes that our militia should be an
effective body.

The Croton Bug Plague and the
Remedy.

Remedy.
Bugology is branch of science not in very
high repute among practical men, but it's
votaries have rare opportunity of redeeming
its claims to respect in devising a remedy for
the Croton bugs. The learned pro-Darwin
and anti Darwin scientists are now engaged
in an earnest discussion of the ''origin Of
insects;' and we observe that while they are
bitterly divided on the point of their having
been originally winged or wingless, they all
agree that they are of aquatic origin. If We
can trust these philosophers SO far,
and assume that the genus cockroach-
batta, We believe, they call it-emerged
from the water, we may, on common sense
grounds, conclude that they have q
special fondness for their native ele-
ment Entomology aside, however, it is an
indubitable fact that they affect wet and warm
places, where they swarm in largest numbers.
Their known fondness for heat and moisture
suggests the most appropriate means of as
sailing and destroying them. The introduce
ton of water pipes into houses has doubtless
been the means Of multiplying the families of
the Croton bug in our bedrooms, for, as the
hot water pipes however watertight they may
be, warm the walls, and offer snug breeding
places for these insects, the cold water pipes,
condensing the surrounding moisture, soon
become externally covered with "5weat, fur
nlshing the water they need. It might be
found that woollen-covered pipes would be
less Objectionable, but as long as any water
pipes are introduced into all parts of buildings
we may expectthi plague.
The ordinary nostrums for exterminating
them have always failed unless mixed with
red lead, arsenic or some poison likely to en-
danger human lite. But the best remedy
yet suggested is the harmless expedient Of
placing washing bowls in their favorite haunts,
first placing little water and sweet syrup in
the bottom of the bowl and piece of rough
wood reaching from the floor to the edge.
Thousands enter these fatal traps easily
scaling the wood, but the slipperiness Of the
sides of the basin prevents their exit, and the
colony may thus be more than decimated in
single night.
No doubt the better drainage Of the city,
and keeping streets, cellars and all interior
parts of houses dry and dustless (for these
bugs voraciously devour all kinds of vegetable
matter), would help to depopulate the city Of
its invaders. But, as we suggested in the
outset, there yet remains the opportunity for
one Of our distinguished savans to immor-
talze his name by the invention of safe and
sure exterminator of this bug.
