1t adds that the warrants were not
issued in Senator Whittemore's name,
but to the Clerk of the Senate. We
don't know that we clearly understand
what is here charged.
Does the Union-HerdM mean that the
contingent fund of the Senate is used to
pay the rent, grocery bills and luxuries of
the Senators? Does it mean and has it
warrant for saying thnt this particular
bill was paid for Whittemore? We should
like to know exactly if that is the allega-
ton, and if there is any proof And if
there is, then we say that the people
ought not to stand such outrages any
longer. Let this thing be Investigated
to the bottom. 1t is somebody's business
to do it without delay.

The Use of TOads.

The Journal DIES Connaissdnces states that
the French horticulturists have followed
the example of the English ones, and
peopled their gardens with toads. These
reptiles are determined enemies of all kinds
of snails and slugs, which, it is well known,
can in single night destroy vast quantity
of lettuce, carrots, asparagus, etc. In Paris
toads are sold at the rate of fifty cents a
dozen. The dealers in this uninviting article
keep it in large tubs, into which they plunge
their bare hands and arms, without any fear
of the poisonous bite to which they are sup
posed to expose themselves. Toads are also
kept in Vineyards, where they devour during
the night millions of insects that escape the
pursuit of nocturnal birds. -Forest and

"A wedding was lately postponed
in Kansas under circumstances of a
somewhat thrilling sort. The bride
WIS the only daughter of a family of
early settlers named Falconer, and the
day of the wedding had arrived, when
it was discovered that Miss Falconer
was missing. Her parents, supposing
she was in her room, went to the door
to warn her that the time for the cere-
mony had arrived, when they found
the room empty. 1t was early evening,
so they walked to the window to dis
cover the truant. Their horror may
be imagined when they saw, rapidly
disappearing through the woods near
by, man carrying in his arms the
form of young girl, which, from the
dress, they Immediately recognized as
that of their daughter. In an instant
the alarm was given, and the whole
party, well armed, started in pursuit.
Within few minutes they were with
in gunshot of the fugitive, but were
unable to use their weapons in con-
sequence of his shielding his body with
the loved form of the bride elect. The
young bridegroom was almost frantic,
and overtaking the almost breathless
abductor, he seized him, and after
brief struggle wrested the girl from
him, at the same time discovering
that the abductor was a Cheyenne In
dian. AT the same time that the lover
regalned his sweetheart, the savage,
with an eel-like wiggle, escaped from
his hold, but the pursuers were too
much for him, and one of their number
brought him to the ground by means
of a well aimed bullet The wedding
is said to have been indefinitely post
poned in consequence Of an attack Of
brain fever, the result of the fright the
bride received.

The Common Lot.

"There is no flock, however watched and
tended,
But one dead lamb is there
There is no Preside, howso'er defended,
But has one vacant chair !"
The hour of bereavement is the
common lot of us all and we come
back from the newmade grave where
we have laid our loved ones to sleep,
come back to the vacant chair, the
des2|ate room, the empty life--oh,
how empty! Yet not for all do the
cares and duties Of life press on us
with any less weight or diminish
aught to their demands. Wisely it is
thus ordered. To sit down and nurse
our grief to give full rein to the indul
gence of sorrow and tears, is the worst
possible thing for us and for those
around us. If grief opens our hearts
to feel the woes of others, incline, us
to forget self and selfish sorrow in
binding up other bruised and bleeding
hearts, leads us to double our diligence,
that before we too are summoned
away, the whole work given us to do
shall be done and we'll done; it will
be possible in some near future for us
to say from the heart 1T is good for
me that have been afflicted.
Bitter as is the cup of bereavement,
says the Tribune, cruel as are the
pangs of separation at the jaws of the
sepulcher, lasting as is the sense of
loss, yet, from these all, good may be
evolved, for only those who have had
this baptism know how to feel for
others woes, to speak words of conso-
lation and to keep silence when no
words can be of any avail. Death
runs bis plowshare through our house
hold tearing up the sod, cutting off at
the root roses and violets, and the
tender blossoms whose fragrance
cheered our lives, wither and perish,
but bye-and-bye richer harvest justi-
fes the ways of God; and, as
little by little, our affections are trans
ferred from this to another world and
the fruits of patience and hope and
resignation ripen above the sod thus
rudely up torn, we begin dimly to per-
ceive that "whom God loveth He
chasteneth."

The proclamation of the virtual
bankruptcy of New Orleans by the
Mayor and City Council will be re-
ceived with more regret than surprise.
1t was difficult to see how such Il re-
suit could be long postponed with all
the outside burdens that had been put
upon taxpayers. The property-hold
ers have struggled manfully to keep
up their municipal credit, but they
could not accomplish impossibilities.
Their burdens have been grlevous in
deed. Aided and supported by Fed
eral influence and Federal troops the
citizens have lost control of their fl
nances, and the direction Of them has
been carelessly handed over to I'M
scrupulous adventures from outside,
who had no interest in taxation excep:
to make it as large as possible for their
own individual advantage When i'll
a great commercial city sucn state
of things is forced upon the citizens
that they cannot rent their real estate
for enough to pay the taxes, and in
many instances cannot rent it at all,
bankruptcy or its equivalent cannot
be long deferred. The consideration
asked for in the case Of New Orleans
should be granted 1t will be for the
benefit of the creditor to DO so. The
city desires to pay its Indebtedness.
There are many hopeful signs of
change for the better in Its business
conditions. Give it time and restrain
further Federal interference and all
will yet he WELL There is too much
vitality and elasticity in the commun-
ity to permit it to stay down when
once the weight is removed. and the
Crescent City may now feel that better
times are ahead.

The Lonely Heart.

1.-THE following pathetic lyric was writte
by the Rev. Charles Wolfe, author of tn
lines on "rhe Burial of Sir John Moore,
and, though published in his works, is no
generally known. For singing it is adapte,
to the Irish air "Grammachree. Wolf
said he on one occasion sung the air owe
and over till he burst into a flood of tears
in which mood he composed the lyric
If had thought thou couldst have died,
| might not weep for thee;
But | forgot, when by thy side,
That thou couldst mortal be;
1t never through my mind had passed
The time would e'er be DER,
And on thee should look my last,
And thou shouldst smile no more.
And still upon that face 1 look,
And think twill smile again,
And still the thought will not brook
That must look in vain.
But when speak, thou dost not say
What thou meier left'st unsaid
And now feel as well may,
Sweet Mary thou art dead
If thou wouldst stay cen as thou art,
All cold and all serene,
| still might press thy silent heart,
And where thy smiles have been.
While cen thy chill bleak corse have.
Thou seemest still mine own
But there, lay thee in thy grave
And | am now alone
| do not think, whereer thou art,
Thou hast forgotten me;
And |, perhaps, may soothe this heart
In thinking too of thee;
Yet there was round thee such dawn
Of light meier seen before
AS fancy never could have drawn,
And never can restore.
