Oliver Cromwell was one day engag-
ed in warm argument with lady up
on oratory, in which she maintained
that eloQuence could only be acquired
by those who made it their study In
early life and their practice aftcrward.-
The Lord Protector, ON the contrary,
maintained that there was no eloquenee
but that which sprung from the heart,
since, when that was deeply interested
in the attainment of an object, it never
failed to supply fiuency and richness
ison. render yapid the studied. speeches
of the most celebrated orators.
1 This argument ended, as most argu-
menrs do, in the iady's tenaciously adj
herring to her side of the question, and
the Protector saying he had no doubt he
should one day make her a convert to
his opinion.
Some days later the lady was thrown
into state bordering on distraction, by
the unexpected arrest aud imprisonment
of her husband, who was conducted To
che tower asa traitor to the government.
The agonizcd wife flew to the Protector,
rushed through his guards, threw her
self at his feet, and, with the most pa
thetic eloquence. pleaded for the life
and Innocence of her husband. sCrom-
well maintained "a severe brow until the
petitioner, overpowered bv the excess OF
her feeling and the energy with which
she had expressed them, paused. His
steam eountenance then relaxed into =
smile. and, extending her an immedi-
ate liberation of her husband, he said:
81 think all who have witnessed this
scene will vote on my side of the qHes-
ton, that the eloqaence OF the heart
alone has power TO save"

and that banks be restrained from Ger.
tifying checks except for actual deposit
tors. He goes at length into the sub
ject of the railroads and canals of the
State and thinks there have been grave
abuses In the management Of the former
or canals and transportation the Gov.
says that If all the locks on the Erie
Canal were doubled, as they will be
shortly, and the prism made to conform
to the prescribed dimensions, the ca
pacity of the canal would no doubt be
sufficient for several years to come, and
when to the increased capacity of steam
as motive power is added, the ability of
the Erie Canal to compete successfully
with other routes cannot well be ques-
toned. He discusses the panic and the
currency question, and expresses him
self emphatically against further ex-
pansion or imitation of currency, and in
favor of the resumption of specie pay
ment at the earliest possible moment.
The contempt proceedings against eX-
Sheriff Brennan in relation to Genet's
escape came up before Justice Daniels.
After argument by counsel Judge Dam
ieis reviewed the case and said that the
language of the commitment was so un-
equivocal that the court could not resist
the inference that there was design by
the sheriff and his deputy, Shields, not
10 execute their duty, and the case was
one which called for punishment. Puo-

A TALK WITH THE MOON.
BY N. R. E.

A LITTLE child knelt by her window one
"A night,
Was peeping just over the top of tree,
And face-yes-a face she was sure she could
1t looked straight upon with eyes all afame
Anu the face did not change, 1t Was ever the
Yes, the eyes and the nose and the mouth she
could see,
Twas the face of man just as plain as could be.
And y tremulous feeling Of lear and unrest,
Was stirred into life in the little chld's breast
" AM. can that BE- the reason he's looking to-
Could the moon really seer Could it hear what
And where was it's body if that was it's heade
And why was it moving SO solemn and slow,
moon GO?
So look ing up at it, again and again,
And asking the questions that puzzled her brain !;
She fanciet she heard up aloft in the sky,
In an audible whisper the noon make reply.
And yet heard plainly each word that you SAID
And SO you were naughty, my poor little maid,
Then really don't wonder that you felt quite
When I peeped in upon you Tonight in your
room,
Ard tried iy your smiling to chase away gloom,
Now If had been naughty as you have to day,
would kneel to my Father in Heaven and
And ask for blessing upon me tonight,
And grace in the future to serve him aright.''
II forgot" said the child. that the all-seeing
Looked straight down in my soul as you do
from the sky;'
And she smiled at her tremulous feeling OF
fear,
It was God. not the moon, that could see her and
hear;
For He who had hung up his lamp in the blue,
Both by day and by night was watching her too,
So she thanked the sweet face bathei in silvery
light,
| Sailing steadily on in its heavenward flight;
And she said "Ohi dsar moon, you have made
me rejoice,
With your sweet, pleasant face and your COM :
fDrting voice!"
For how could she tell-the poor little bird
That the moon had never once uttered a word!
And that only her conscience had told her to-
night,
4 Row sinful she was in the all Fathers sight.
And the moon sail ing up on the crest of cloud,
Looked down on the head of the little child
bowed;
As in penitent prayer by her bedside she knelt,
| Confesslng to God all the sorrow she felt;
And He who is ever most really to hear.
In forgiving her,sin robbed her heart of all fear

Imagination plays pranks with the
most matter-of-fact people. 1t is vain
to attempt to refute the charge, for fam
ey has as much aud often more to do
with ones feelings, aud daily walk and
conversation as have sense and reason.
Imagin ,tiou Is the capital upon which
are built the fortunes of doctors aud
lawyers. IL no one sent for the doctor
until his services were really needed. he
could not live by his profession and Ii
a lawyer depended upon fee only when
people were absolutely justified in Eti-
