SELECTIONS.
The embrros Or al forms are alike.

THE embryos of all forms are alike
The activity of love is goodness.
Good expands and wars with evil al
over the Garth, first 10 contract and i'm
prison, and finally to destroy it.
Faith, not sight, must be our guide
We cannot do without a compass.
We should Judge of a man muct
more surely from what he dreams thar
from what the thinks.
I'LL health is often not only sin, buI
a prolific mother OF sins.
Disease seems to be more fertile
source Of evil than depraVity.
TO be able to bring your thoughts tc
a point Is genius.
Blessed is the day whose morning is
Weakened by the patter of little feet.
Most new truths crawl out OF the
shell Of some old one.
He dies in whom all daily life and
thought are fashioned into words.
"A Just retribution for any wrong or
woman Is sure to come in the vice and
crime Of her children.
Mo other creature has the hold or
Heaven that mother has. -
Those men are always best, noblest
and most harmonious, in whom is seen
tho reflected influence Of elevated and re-
fined women.
1t is one OF the fatalities Of humanity
to be condemned to an eternal struggle
with phantoms.
To speak aloud and all alone, has the
effect Of q dialogue with the good one has

Faith Is as much the key TO happi-
ness here as 1t Is the key TO happiness
hereafter.
Clouds never send down 10 ask the
plants and grass how much they need;
they rain for the relief Of their own full
bosoms.
Pure instinct is but law of Nature,
like termination; there is in 1t only one
degree more toward life.
The morality of the intellect, when
It has q morality, is only calculation ap-
piled to ambition.
Work done under protest, like an
oath taken with mental reservation, lacks
Its true life.iOrce.
ALI minds are flssurcd with incapaci-
ties in one direction or anothGr,-ClIpped
away on this side or that; all are irag-
mentary.
We may as well throw our money
into the gutter, or go fighting wind.mills,
as to try 10 make our fellOw.creatures
better while we neglect their physical
conditions.
In valiant suffering for others, not
a slothiul making others suffer for us, did
noblencss ever lie. Every noble crown is,
and on earth will ever be, a crown Of
thOrns.
"A little word, act or look, when the
heart is sore, fingers rs does the fragrance
of the rose long after the vase is broken.

To the Senate and House of Representatives:
Your attention is respectfully invited - he con-
dition of affairs in the State of Louisiana. Grave
complications have grown out of the election there
on the 9th of November last, chiefly attributable,
it is believed, to an organized attempt the part
of those controlling the election officers and the
returns to defeat, in that election, the will of the
majority OF the electors of the State. Different
bodies are claiming to be the Legislative Assembly
of the State and the confusion and uncertainty pro-
duced in this way falls with paralyzing effect upon
all its interests. Controversy arose soon the
election occurred its proceedings and results,
but declined to interfere until suit involving
the Circuit Court of the United States under and
by virtue of the act of May 81, 1870 entitled an
Act to enforce the right of citizens Of the United
was made to the Judicial process IN that suit with
%aoafy any sng r to review

or other questions arising rR,, in the
such process, and to use, If necessary troops for
that purpose, in accordance with the thirteenth

opposed to this has been another government
claiming to control the affairs OF the State, and
which has to some extent been pro to,t''d or:
ganized. The recent investigation Of the said
election has developed taany frauds and
forgeries rs to make it doubtful what candidates re-
ceived majority OF the votes actually cast, and in
view of these facts a variety of action has been
proposed. have no specific recommendation to
make upon the subject but II there is any practical
way of removing these difficulties by 1egisla-
ton, then earnestly request that such action
may be taken at the present session of Congress.
1t SENS advisable that / should state now what
course / shall feel bound to pursue in re-
ference to the matter. in the event Of no action
by Congress. At this time 1t will be my
duty, SO far as it may be necessary for me to
act, to adhere to that Government heretofore rec
ognized by me. To Judge Of the election and quail
ifcation Of its members is the exclusive province
OF the Senate, 1t is also the exclusive province
OF the House to judge OF the election and qualif-
cations of its members; but to State offices
filed and held under State laws, the decision of
the State judicial tribunals, it seems to me, ought
to be respected. am extremely anxious to avoid
any appearance of undue interference in State af-
fairs, and if Congress differs from me as to what
ought to be done respectfully urge its immediate
decision to that effect. Otherwise shall feel OBJ
lged, as far as can by the exercise of legitimate
authority, to put end to the UNHAPPY controversy
which disturbs the peace and prostrates the busi-
ness of Louisiana by the recognition and support
of that government which is recognized aud up
held by the courts of the State. Z. S. GRANT.

The Difference.

We have heretofore called attention to
the difference between Republicans and
Democrats in their methods of treating
corruption within their own ranks. The
Republican party has shown no mercy to
its corrupt members, whenever proof
could be presented showing the least
taint of corruption. They have expelled
members of Congress, turned out great
many other officers, and are now engaged
in exposing a scheme of corruption
which is calculated to weaken and de-
stroy some whom they have been accus-
toned to count in the ranks of their best
men. They never stop to inquire the
politics of an officer whom they suspect
of guilt. But when has the Democratic
party pursued this course? When has it
not been ready to shield its own members
from merited punishment Take the case
of Bogy. There is little doubt that he
defeated Blair for the Senate by the use
of money, yet Democratic committee of
the Missouri Legislature has decided that
he is innocent as an unborn babe. There
was one Republican on that committee.
He dissented from the report of the ma
iority, and will make minority report.
This looks as though the Democrats had
been at their old white-washmg busi-
ness.-7oledo Blade.

WHAT OF THAT?

Didst fancy life was spent on beds of ease,
Flutterng the roseleaves scattered by the breeze
Come, rouse theei work while it is called to-day;
Coward, arise, 60 forth thy wayl
Lonely! And what of that?
Some must be lonely; tits not given to all
To feel heart responsive rise and fall
To blend another life into its own:
Work may be done in loneliness; work on
Darki Well and what of that?
Didst fondly dream the sun would never set?
Dost fear to lose thy way? Take courage yet;
Learn thou to walk by faith and not by sight,
Thy steps will guided be, and guided right.
Hardi Well, and what of that?
Didst fancy life one summer holiday,
With lessons none to learn, and naught but play
Go, get thee to thy task. Conquer OF diei
1t must be learned learn it, then, patiently.
No helpi Nay, tits not so;
Though human help be far, thy God is nigh,
Who feeds the ravens, hears his ch ildren's cry;
He's near thee wheresoe'cr thy footsteps roam
And he will guide thee, light thee, help thee
home.

Michigan.

The Republican State Convention, of
Michigan, held at Lansing on the 26th of
February, unanimously adopted the fol-
lowing resolutions:
ReSolred, By the Republicans of Michigan in
convention assembled, that we have no apology or
excuse for corrupt action proved against any mem
bers OF our party but desire the fullest invesiga
ton and demand the punishment of the guilty con-
scious that the Republican party is strong enough
to purify its own ranks that IL cannot be strong II
tneglecs its duty in this respect; that can only
continue to command the confidence of the conn
try by purging itself Of unworthy elements.
