I'm afoat, I'm afoat on the wild. raging sea,
And there Amt any use of your looking for me-
Some day I may trouble myself to tell why

Deal gently with Dunham-remember the line,
It is human to err, to forgive is divine.
I convinced him by arts which have at com

That a bird in the bush is worth two in the

Be kind, too, to Justice-that blindfolded miss
Don't blame the poor girl for . tribe like this
She always, I think. does the best that she can
And amt up to the tricks OF . clever old man.
Good bless my dear country. and cherish hel

Though 1 quit her for good, yet love her tne

For she taughtme that freedom was every man.

in Atchison's old stable at Bullionville by
some parties who were digging around
and came across it. 1t was wrapped in
an old sack that was rotten from age. It
had probably laid where it was found two
or three years. The bullion was claimed

WELL SAID.-The San Francisco En-

is a noble position taken by Chief JUS
tice Waite. when he declares. that no
Judge should be allowed to even think of
being President, as he might be tempted
to make electioneering decisions. Such
an utterance cannot fail to have effect for
good upon the country. 1t is worthy of
the first law officer of a great people.
The danger that has most threatened the
purity of the American Bench, has long
been recognized to be the possibility Of
Its connection with partizan politics.
There should be a complete divorce be-
tween the Judicial Office and dependen-
cies upon popular favor. Ability, learn
ing, purity and honesty are the Judges
qualincations. and when he devotes his
life and energy to the work he has Sc
lected, and to that alone, he performs his
whole duty. The Chief Justice Of the
United States has done well in setting
such an example,"

The CUBAN PRESS ON THE MESSAGE
The Voz de Cuba, commenting on that
part of the Presidents message which
relates to Cuba, says Gen. Grants Ian
guage seems to have been chosen to
wound the susceptibilities Of the Span
iards. He seems to like playing with
fire. He does not know the temperament
of the Spaniards any more than Napoleon
did.
The Diaro censures the tone of the
message, which was published while ne
g%otiations were pending between the
United States and Spain. 1t praises
family the Presidents refusal to acknowl-
edge the Cuban insurgents as belliger-
ents, and says that the part of the mes
sage relating to Spain is studiously OBJ
scure finally the Diaro, in the conclu-
sion of two columns and a-half of criti-
cism says We believe that Gen. Grant
has disguised the insurgents; that he has
wounded Spanish pride in an unfounded
assertion his entire message is contrary
to the spirit of the American people, who
eminetly desire peace, and has satisfied
no one.
TWEED AND Hrs Er~FEcrs.--A New York
dispatch of the 11th instant says: The
Police Department and the Sherif's Off
GERS are following up the numerous clues
obtained, but as yet there are no tidings
of the missing "Boss" of Tammany.
The police are not very confident of his
restoration to Ludlow Street Jail, and
the general belief is that Tweed is far
beyond the reach of the law. On Mon
day morning in the Court of Oyer and
Terminer, the District Attorney will take
mp the Tweed case andmake a motion for
his trial on some eighteen indictments,
to which the BOSS" has never plead
upon. Upon Tweed's non-appearance.
his bail will be declared forfeited, and his
sureties. Charles Delin and Fred. B.
Sands. will be called upon for SIS, 900.
SIS, 000, 900 WORTH OF BONDS STOLEN.
A trunk containing SIS. O00. 900 worth of
bonds was stolen from one of Dodd's ex-
press wagons at the corner of Watts and
Canal streets, New York, last Saturday
night. The bonds were in the care of the
Minister of Guatemala. who arrived there
on Friday, and were to be used as part
payment due the. United States. The
Minister, Senior Don Vicente Dardon,
was stopping at 1910 Second street, in
tending to 60 to Washington. and had
packed the bonds in his trunk. When
the robbery was made known to him he
fell in a faint and required medical assist
nee to restore him. He said the bonds
could not be replaced. He went to Wash
ington last night. One man has been
arrested, charged with participation in
the robbery.

The PRESIDENTS MEssAGE.-The Gold
Hill Neos of a recent date closes a leader
on the Presidents Message in the follow
ing words: 1.-THE message is remarkable.
1t is second to no State paper ever issued
from the White House. 1t is strong,
terse. convincing, manly, statesmanlike.
It sounds the keynote of that bugle call
which will rally to the support of free in
stitutions the patriotism, integrity and
intelligence of the nation. 1t is compre-
hensive, yet minute; broad, yet pointed;
calm, yet impressive, in its earnestness.
AS a review of our national condition it
is exhaustive; as a declaration of the
principles, upon the enforcement of which
our national existence and prosperity de-
ponds, it is mastery, both in analysis
and conclusions. We repeat again, that
this last message of the President stands
unsurpassed, if not, indeed, unequaled,
among those of his predecessors, and
stamps him as in full accord with the
most advanced advocates of liberty and
progress throughout the world.

RALLY1Na TO GRANT.-A special of the
18th instant from Washington says the
Democrats are generally accepting the
idea that they should fall in with the
Presidents suggestion of a constitutional
amendment prohibiting the support of
s~ectarian schools out of the public
money. and at a meeting of the Demo-
cratic Association of the District of Col
umbia last night, the first step towards
such q movement was taken by the intro
duction of resolutions r~eciting that a free
school system OF the United States is the
bright particular star in the galaxy of the
Republic, and that on its maintenance
and perpetuity depends the present and
future of the American people, and that
the Democratic party has at all times,
and hereafter will resist any and all at
tempts lookingto the division of the pub
lie school fund, no matter for what pur-
pose; that the Democratic party has
been, is now. and always will be in favor
of free schools, free press, free speech,
free trade, and gold and silver as the only
constitutional money of the nation, paper
money being the illegitimate offspring of
a Republican party. 1t is well known to
the nation at large that the only fatal
blow ever attempted to be struck at the
free schools of this country, was by the
Republican party in Congress, where it
~endeayored to mix black and white chill
dren in the same schools. No State shall
make any law respecting an establish
ment of any religion or prohibiting the
free exercise thereof, and no money
raised by taxation for the support of pub
lie schools, or derived from any public
fund therefor, shall ever be under the
control of any religious sect. nor shall
any money SO raised ever be divided be-
tween religious sects or denominations.

Toe Presidents Message.

We surrender most Of our available
space this morning 10 ffes.arnt Grants
FIRST message to the Forty-ioath congress.
II is u sing ularly able and conprehen-
slye document and discusses almost every
phase Of public affairs with characteristic
Doldaess, perspicuity and decision.
Without space for comment at this time,
we shall merely summarize the principal
topics under review. The president
treats popular education rs u subject OF
paramount national concern earnestly
recommends the taxation of church
property; believes that neither the indie
pande,rc, of Cuba nor her beliigerent
rights should be recognized in the exist
Ing condition of affairs; defses interna-
tional rights and privileges as affecting
the submarine electric cable companies /;
comments upon the Mexican depredations
on the Texas frontier; naturalization
frauds, and the gross impositions prac-
ticed upon the government through the
court of claims; advocates specie resum-
ption on and after January LIST 1879, as
provided by act of Congress; makes sun
dry recommendations concerning finan-
cial legislation, specifically the redemp-
ton of two millions monthly of legal
tenders. by issuing in their stead long
bonds bearing interest at the rate of 81
2o-l0o per cent per annum and provid-
ing for increasing the revenue by n
restoration of the duty on tea and coffee.
Various practical observation are sub
United concerning the mining states and
territories, and the institution of polyg-
amy and the importation of Chinese
women for illegilimate purposes are
severely reprobated and denounced.
These are the leading features of the
presidents message, which councludes
with brief recapitulatipn of the ques-
tions he deems of the most vital import
ance, and calling for immediate
legislation by congress. He pronounces
in favor OF compulsory education SO far
as to deprive all persons who cannot read
and write from becoming voters after
the year 1890, advocates tine distinct and
perpetual separation of church and state,
AID that no sectarian tenetS shall be
ever taught in any school supported in
whole or part by the state or nation;
that licensed immortality shall be sup
pressed, and that such laws be enacted AS
shall secure speedy return to sound
currency; and suggesting that the begin
ming of the second century of our
national existence will be the most
fitting time for the Inauguration of these
reforms. 1t is altogether the most
interesting and impressive utterance
that has emanated from President
Grant, and as addressed to the opening
session of the f0urtv-fourth congress, and
upon the eve of another presidential
canvass, will lie read with universal
interest and elicit wide spread and
exciting comment.-Kansas City Journal
