CoLD WEATHER.--The mercury in this Sec
ton of the country has figured lowly. II has
been the coolest spring ever experienced by
the Oldest citizens. Though TO the present
time il is thought that the fruits cereals and
vegetables, which have all ready spouted, are
not in the least injured. Reports from all
parts show that the cold spell has been gem
eral throughout the country, engendering a
considerable loss to the hnsbandman. Also
preventing him from filling the soil for the re-
cepton of later products.

let the woman stand as the man stande,

then the two sides of the arch will be
equal in strength and integrity, and the
structure will not give way before the
heavy burden Of society. Mrs Howe closed
by speaking of the great Handel ald Haydn
chorus with which she had often sung
Here there were the bassos and tenors on
one side, and the sopranos and altos on the
other. What sort OF an oratorio should we
have if we had only the male veicoe. grand

unless the glorious sopranos had tn part
also. She remembered how all on both
sides looked at the conductor, and he, with
his baton, was ever signaling, frat &c one
side and then to the other. keeping both up
to their mark. And so the prayed the wO-
men TO give such heed to every suggestion

great music of human life they might be

joaquin Miller on Walt whitman.

In his lecture on Literary London" at
Washington, Saturday night, joaquin Mil
Ter, comparing the respect paid to literary
men in London with that shown to the same
class in the United States, made the follow,
ing allusioi to Walt Whitman:
But here in America, here in this high
capital, there wss once Q colossal mind; an
old, an honorable old man, with soul o.
grand as Homer's-the Milton of America
He walked these streets for years, Q plain,
brave old man, who was kind even to your
dogs. He had done great service, in IN
humble way, in the army; he had written
great books, which, had been translated in
all tongues sndread in every land save his
own. In consideration thereof he was given
little place under the government, where
he could barely earn bread enough tor him
self and his old mother. He went up and
down, at work here for years. You Knocked
at him when You saw him. At last, stricken
with palsy, he left the place, leaning upon
his staff, to go away and die. saw him
but the other day, dying, destitute.
Grand old Walt Whitman! Even now
he looks like Titan god. [Applause.]
thank you, that you sympatnize with him
Don't tell me that man gives all his youth
and oil his years in the pursuit of art, en-
during poverty in the face of scorn, fol
nothing. That man shall live. He shall
live when y0n mighty dome of your Capitol
no longer lifts its rounded shoulders Q gains,

Busby distillery for purposes of defrauding
the government. Toe other Indictment
charged Fitzroy with having knowledge
of the frauds perpetrated by Busby upon
the government, and failing to report the
same to the district collector and commits
siOner of internal revenue; also with having
enabled Busby to perpetrate frauds of this
character; alec with having conspired with
Busby. Mcdonald and Joyce to defraud the
government; also with having conspired
with Busby, Bevis s. Frazier, Jewetr vi.
rici Tinschor, Bingham and Federer to de-
fraud, and with deirauding the government
Of the tax oa 500 gallons of distilled liquors.
Mr.. Fitzroys plea OF guilty was accepted in
both cases.
After Fitzroys case had been disposed of,
the district attorney introduced to Judge
Treat, Schor D. Thorpe, one of the late
government st0rekeepers, against whom
two Indictments are pending. Mr.. Thorpe
then pleaded guilty to both indictments.
The first had only two counts, both of
which charged that Thorpe aided in the
fraudulent removal of spirits from Jewett's
Thorpe, while government storekeepsr,
had knowledge Of the fact that Jewett cat
ried on distilling business for the purpose
of defrauding the government, and failed
to report such knowledge to his superior
officer; also that he had knowledge that jew
EFT produced 500 gallons of spirits and re-
moved them from his dstillery for the
purpose of defrauding the government, and
failed to report such knOwledge; also that
he conspired and colluded with Joyce, Nc
Donald, and others, to defraud the govern
ment of revenue. The plea in these cases
was also accepted. The court deferred
making Judgment on previous occasions
where the members of the ring have made
a like plea, Tue general opinion here is
hot ha bou do Of
compromise with those who have pleaded
gully, whereby they are to be let OH with
comparatively light punishments. The
government authorities and the friends of
Secretary Bristow here are quite jubilant
over the result of to.day's doings in the
courthouse. Undoubtedly the bottom has

For day and night Love sang with US. played
with rs,
Folded us round from the dark and the light;
And our hearts were full lied of the music he
made with u.s.
Made with our hearts ard our lips while he stayed
with us,
Stayed in mid passage his pinions from flight
For day and 1ght.
From his foes that kept watch with his wings had
he hidden us.
Covered US close from the eyes that would
smite
From the feet that hAd tracked and the tongues
that chidden us,
Sheltering in shades of the myrtles forbidden US,
Spirit and flesh growing one with delight
For q day and . night.
But his wings will net rest and his feet will not
stay vii h lie;
Morning is here in the joy Of it's might
With his breath has he sweetened \ night and .
daV for us:
Now let him pass, and the myrtles make way for
Love can but last in US here at his height
For day and night.

Wales at Athens.

The editorials of the London Telearaph
are sometimes eloquent. The following
passage is from the leader announcing to
the people of England the arrival of the
Prince Of Wales at Athens:
Though all that is beautiful and noble
in Athens presents itself-as did the faded
charm of this lady-under the Ruise of age
and discrep.tude, still this wonderful spot
remains one of the natural pilgrimage
points of thu world. For him, in truth, who
knows ugh of ancient literature and
art to estimate correctly the part played
in the education of mankind by ancient
Hellas there can be few experiences like the
caught of tae Eternal City, es the Cam
pagna is ciossed from Civita Vecchia, or
the northern 'oad is followed, may suggest
more Overw nelming thoughts of imperial
grandeur, and the sight of Jerusalem from

monument of the antique glory, the I'M.

the clear blue sky, inspires even those who
are destitute of high culture with ire
preesible admiration for its intrinsic
beauty of form and position. Other memo

President Barrios, of Guatemala, and his
able Secretary of State, Senior Marco A.
Soto, hage begun movement which de.

and even, if it should prove advisable or
desired BY the Central Americans, the off,

pose federal union of the five Central
American States-Guatemsls SanlSalvador,
Honduras, Costa RIGA and Ncaragua-un-

develops his plan OF union was printed in

general treaty between the five States in

of all our prosperity and glory.
If we were asked to advise our Central
American neighbora, We should urge them
to copy q nearly o. they can our own fed.

several years showed to the American peO-
Pile that . mere confederation Of independ.

States, and we do not doubt that if the
Mexicans had substituted it for the looser

Mexico would to-day be far richer, happier
and more prosperous than she is.
If, as every American must hope, this
movement toward Q closer union of the
