IMMORTALITY.

When friends depart, why do We call 1t death7
All! let Us say their passage into life,
The heayng breast, the quickning Of the breath,
That Inst sad spectacle Of human strife
With hope and fear 40 rife.
One pang! The curtain rises; We behold
The things Of Immortality unveiled;
Then search1eas mysteries, one BY one, unfold;
The power and majesty OF Heaven . revealed,
From our dull eyes concealed.
True, many sad reflections are conveyed
To see some dear, loved face grow white and cold,
The oacs most chtrishcd in the damp graTe laid,
THE LIST Of them that We CAD here behold,
4 uass OF clay and mould.
But zee the chrysals from ont it. caze,
In beauty now, a bright-wfng'd butterfly;
We, in our turn, do cast our cov'ring base,
To soar immortal to our homes On high.
Some 7sy this IL to die.
'Tis but transition. All why call it death7
9ages and noralists must this believe:
After last struggle Of the feeting breath
Hers dust to dust We give.
Veil see the faces Of the loved and lost;
Well hear the voices that on earth are DER;
And when for Us the one great die is czss,
"Not lost but gone bsfose."
Then it's not death and, II we but reflect,
'Tis Life, 'tis hope, to leave Earth's dark abyss,
With soal unfettered Join the bright elect,
Pass the " dark valley" from scene Ike this,
Merged into realms OF bliss;
To wing cur flights to 1aods Of loveler birth,
BIZ angels guided o'eT 1ow'r-st1eWn way,
Beyond the confines Of this feeling Earth,
Where life is ons eternal sumrner-daJ,
And oought eao ear decay.

OF Her Malesty's Government, so far as the
Swiss, Brazilian aud Italian arbitrator are con.
cemed 20 propose to Parliament TO vote sums Of
and "hear.'1 may Just state q summary Of
what took place. When the arbitration was ln
progress, the United statcl Government pro
posed that each Of the two Governments should
present TO each Of those three arbitrator
sums Of money. Her MaJestys Government
were OF Oplhlon-nrst OF all, that nothing should
be done until the aTblttatlOn was concluded;
and, secondly, that 10 lieu OF offering
sum Of money, it would be better 10 follow the
precedents In such cases, according to which IL
has been the custom TO offer some article Of
value In which the money IA Invested. 80 much
took place atth time, aud the United States Gov
ernment entered Into that view. When the matter
was resumed some correspondence took place,
should make presents to these three ATbltratOrs.
The American Government proposed that the
gift from each OF the Governments should be
separate CIR. The British Government there
upon proposed that there should be Joint gift
from the two Governments. The American
Goyernment were quite s.iling 70 accede to that
proposal, but they found that the discussion of
the matter had been anticipated, and that an
order had been given In America for plate TO be
presented. The consequence was that the
American Government presented plate TO these

The arbitrator gave full, fair hearing to
the long aud, perhaps, not particular rly er-
citing arguments Of the agents and counsel OF
tho United States aud Great Britain, deyoting
three months exclusively to the matter In dis
pute, to the neglect Of their private Interests,
financial and political; for all this they do not
accept cent OF pay. And yet Mr.. Caven-
dish Dcntlnok and others Of the House OF
Commons, begrudgp recognition of these
valuable services three months Of severe
labor In cause In which the srbItrators
could have no interest bui the desire 70 arrive
at just and equitable decision. The cries OF,
"Oh OH" with which Mr.. Gladstone was
and the concluding "murmurs"

The LATEST ACT Of the President, So
charged, which oiTends the Democratic and
Liberal organs Is tho appointment Of hls son
TO the STAFF Of Gen. Phil Sheridan, as an ad-
ditional aidc-do-camp, with the rank OF leu
tenant colonel. There has been to-do, In
which the World takes leading part, over
this very small matter, and Gen. Grant has
been charged with favoritlsm and injustice.
We venture to say that he really had nothing
TO do with the appointment, and II the facts
were known, It would be found that II was
made at the request or upon tho rceommonda-
tlon Of Gen. Sheridan himself. Again, ii
p not a promotions but simply chance
Of duties with higher temporary rank, be-
cause next week the nppolntoc can, and may,
be ordered to serve as q suhaltern with his
regiment on tho frontier. Each general on.
Ger, aecordin. to law, Ia allowed a certain
number of aidcs.te-camp, with prescribed
rank, TO be selected by the general on whose
stad they arc TO serve, from the line Of the
army. By some officers this particular sys-
ten OF staG appointments IA regarded as
little fringe on our military outht, which Is
allowed to remain there by Congress more
because Of Its beauty than lts utility; but we
are sure General Sheridan, an active, go-ahcad
officer, will lnd employment for all the sub
ordlnates he asks to have about him, 50 that
Lie Itenant Grant, while he may learn much,
will by no means have q sinecurc.
