FOREIGN LNTELLIGENCE.

President Figueras announce Ito the Cor
tes his determination to return to them the
powers with which the assembly had invited
him as president of the provisional govern
ment of Spain. He said the conditions of the
tenUie Of his grave responsibility had become
more difficult than heretofore.
-All quiet in France. President MTacMa-
hon has made some trifing changes in the
new ministry, since first announced, and seems
to have the reins of g overnnent well in hand.
There Is proposition to give him a definite
term of five years. and to declare the presi-
dent irresponsible to the assembly for his
acts. The assembly has agreed to rebuild the
column yendome, and has taken a recess of
some days, to be out of the way. The army
list, published for the first time since the
war, shows 5S1 generals and % 500 officers.
The attacks of Irun were made by the
cure eff Santa Cruz. The Carlists announce
that it has been successful, and the town is
now in their hands. The Carlists shot twen-
ty-seyen carbiners captured near Irun Great
Indignation is felt in Madrid at the atroeity,
but the Carlists claim that these men first
hoisted white flag and then poured volley
into the Carlists as they approached. For
this they were shot down without mercy.
- dispatches from Melbourne report that a
panic prevails in New Zealand over frequent
and terrible assassinations by the mountain,
GERS. The settlers are organizing for defense
and another Mauri war il probable.
Duke de Brogle, minister of foreign af-
fairs, has addressed circular letter to the
representatives Of France abroad, declaring
that the difference between the majority in
thelassembly and Theirs was on his domestic
policy, which did not offer sufficient guaran-
tees against revolution. The policy of the
new government, he continues, will be mod
crate at home and pacific abroad All at
tompts at revolution will be vigorously op-
posed without attacking existing institutions.

DAY-DREAM.
,pr KArr prrr.N.n osnooD.

BY KATE PUTNAM OsGOOD.
Here, in the heart of the hills, lie,
Nothing but me 'twixt earth and sky
An amethyst and an emeBald stone
Hung and followed for ne alone
Is it a dream, or can il be
That there is life apart from me? p
A larger world than the circling bound
OF light and color that lap me round?
DrOwsily, duly, through my brain,
Like some recurrent, vague refrain,
A world of fancy comes and goes.
Shadowy pleasures, shadowy woes,
Spectral tolls and troubles seem
Fashioned out of this foolish dream
Round my charEei quiet creep
Phantom creatures that laugh and weep
Nay, know they are meaningless,
Visions of utter idIencss
Nothing was, nor ever will be,
Save the hills. and the heavens ana me.

NATHAN GREGORY has removed
with his family from near Bellefon-
taine, TO Pella In order to secure the
excellent school advantages which
that place affords. The former place
has lost, temporarily, good citizen,
one Of the founders Of the the town.
He has made wise choice-not In
leaving a good farm and removing to
the city, but in his determination to
give his children better educational
opportunities than are offered by the
average common schools. Clay town
ship will have ten or fifteen students
in school Mt Pella this winter. II il
gratifying to note such signs OF n
growing interest In and appreciation
Of the importance OF education among

1t is to be hoped that Senator Car
penter, of Wisconsin, will be remov-
ed from his position of President pro
ten. Of the U. s. Senate upon the
converting Of that body. Aside from
his disgraceful conduct at an eastern
watering place recently, which he
has never been able to explain away,
he is the Senatorial champion Of the
"back pay grab" which the people
Of the entire country, without re-
spect to party, have so emphatically
condemned. He is not a representa-
tive Republican, and should not be
retained i'm the exalted position that
might in certain contingencies place
him in the Presidential chair. The
Republican party cannot afford to
to bolster up such men as Senator
Carpenter, whose immoral practices
deeply disgrace the position he holds,
and disgust the moral sentiment of
the great mass Of the people of all
parties-&dte Journal.

JUSTICES OF THE PEACE are not
furnished by the State with copies OF
the new Code. II they want to know
the law they must buy 1t. Most OF
our Justices hold the Office rather
against their will than otherwise.
Being elected, they accept the office
as duty; and If they do not accept
must pay a fine. These things being
true, II is wrong, and almost oppres-
sive in many cases to require them to
purchase the Code, without which
they cannot properly fulfill the duties
of the Office. Heretofore the State
has furnished each Justice with q copy
OF the Code, and required him to turn
it over to his successor. The same
rule should have been continued and
it IL 10 be hoped that the Legislature
will make provision at Its next session
for supplying each justice with the
new Code.

Efforts are being made in Pella to
organize joint stock company for
the purpose of erecting buildings and
establishing foundry and machine
works on u large scale.

a disposition upon the part Of the
members to make the Band a credit
to the place, and are disposed to give
them such help and encouragement
as they deserve.

The October report of statistics OF
the Department Of Agriculture,
from digest Of returns from counties
producing large proportion of the
corn crop in the United States, is not
the final report upon the quantity,

was 1913, or per cent. above. The
crop of last year was estimated at

Farmers who have grain to sell,
better wait till prices have advanced
to what they were before the panic.
Gold is being shipped from England
to buy grain, for expectation. There
Is no need OF the farmers being in
jured at all by the late excitement,
If they will hold back their product
for short time. The unanimity of
feeling throughout the majority of
the nation, that railroad rates are too
high and should be reduced, has
weakened the price Of railroad
stocks, and deposits have been with
drawn from banks that were suppos-
ed to be connected with railroad en-
terprises. But this money will soon
seek investment, yet if there were
no more here with which to buy
grain, gold is being shipped from
England for that purpose, for Great
Britain must have wheat, panic or
no panic. Brain and Muscle.

Common sense is most ginnerally
despised hi those who liant got 1t.
Among the blu laws of konnekti-
cut. (which are now obsolute) are
this-"No man shall chaw terbakker
on Sunday, unless he swailers the
split"
Some folks are always trieing tew
see thru milestone edgways, when,
if they would only turn it over on
the fiat side they could look rit
thru the hole.
But fu sights, in this life, are more
sublime and pathetick, than to see a
poor but virtuous young man, 1uli
of christion fortitude, struggling with
mustach.
As in a game of cards so in a game
of life. we must play what is dealt
tew US, and the glory konsists, not SO
much in winning, as in playing a
poor hand well.
We are told that "an honest man
is the noblest uork of God"-but the
demand for the Cork has been SO linz
tied, that j have thought a large
share of the fust edishun must still
be in the authors hands.
