Sic Transit Gloria Mundi.

San Diego's gifted poet is gone! He has gone to England, doubt less, to follow in the wake of Joa- quin Miller and the rest of the crack = brained rhyme singers. San Diego is no doubt in mourn ing; but oh what a blessing to the readers of either of those excel lent papers, the Onion and World. to be able to open them without meeting the miserable doggerel of this shell "poick."- We have been puzzled to know why those papers continue to publish his spooney effusions. At first they seemed to be advertisements for his "shells," but of late they as- sumed the shape of regular poe tical contributions. We don't know who or what he is. but his poetry is-well we won't say much about it. Here are line or two from what seems tO be his last ! gasp. In his reply to "Anonyma," !" who had become smitten of him, and had written him some verses,
 he says:
 Dear to my heart. thy muse shall ever teem Teem is good--see Webster. Again:
 Nor ihink that ever sweet. refreshing 1 breeze.
 Shall from the Bay thy gentle bosom freeze There's a high old idea; to
 couple a sweet, refresting breeze from the Bay of San Diego or
 anywhere else, with .treeztng, i'

sacred relation without knowing whether they are suited to each other or not. Unhappy marriages result from various causes. In compatibility of temper. is one great cause, and very often naturs al cussedness, in one party or the other, and sometimes both. Some writer has said that if men exer- ised the anne amount of care in .hoosing wife that they do in auying a horse, there would be fewer unhappy marriages. Some of our readers may think it sim gular that we have chosen this subject for a leader. Ifthey don't like it, or the manner in which we treat it, they needn't read it. We consider it one of the most important subjects that can he presented to the minds Of civil ized people. For all the hope of our country and of civilization, the world over, depends on the marriage relation. if
 There has been considerable mating in this section of the coun. try lately and more is expected soon. This is as it should be. We sincerely wish that happiness peace and prosperity may attend them all through life. The fact cannot be too strongly impressed upon the minds of those entering upon this holy relation, that theil happiness is, in a great measure | in their own hands, and by culti vatfng the affec tions, and keeping alive that regard that they had for each other before marriage their union will be pesceful ano beautiful. They can say to eact other in the beautiful language of the poet:
 Thus hand in hand through life we'll go
 It's checkered paths of joy and woe
 With cautious steps we'll tread
 Out its vain scenes without tear. 1 Without trouble or fear,
 And mingle with the dead.
 While conscience, like faithful friend
 Shall through the gloomy vale attend.
 And cheer our latest breath
 Shall, when all other comforts cease,
 Like a kind Angel. whisper peace, And smooth the bed of death.

WASHINGTON, May 5:-The Dill reported by Senator Kelly today provides that the Government shall pay per cent. interest on bonds of the Texas and Pacific Railroad Company, to the extent of eight thousand dollars per mile for ten years, for a distance not exceeding 700 miles; in return for which the Company is to traCs- port U. s. mails, Army and Indi- an supplies forever free. The Com- mittee's written report accnmpa- nying the bill shows that mail and army service costs the Government $341, TIA per annum. The Govern ment outlay on the costs of bonds world amount to S2S0,O ,OOO per year for ten years only. The Govern ment would in twenty years, save, by the construction of this road, some S4,00O, ,000. The report there i fore argues that from the vast benefit of a general nature to the country, at large, the passage ot this bill would result in the di'
 rect pecuniary advantages to the
