TO 4 BUTTERFLY

So thou vast made to hush thy perfect wings
Upon cold urns and shapes Of dim decay,

Beyond the dreaming Of a summerday.
With doathlcssness,
>' Did snatth from thee,
Slight creature Of an hour,
The grace that is thy dover,
To symbolic 70 time her bright eternity.
Yes, thou art linked with that diviner past;
Thou tak'st from golden years thy curvipg
fight;
From elder gods and singers sad thou hast
A lot secured to morning. out OF sight.
And yet to-day, In this delicious an,
This sunlight rare,
From bloom to bloom
A rival bi0ssom skimming,
Inc sweetness overbrlmmlng,
Who now would mate with thee the insignia
OF the tomb.
Rather, an emblem filter far thou art
Of life swung deep amid the moments bliss,
Fine sense, line soul, a thrill on beauty's neart,
Nor breathing cave at to.ich OF beauty's kiss.
The wanton bee his gr0sser need supplies,
He feeds and flies,
And Still the ear
Follows his greedy hasting,
Whilst thou. Thy leisure wasting,
Brea l'st not with pompous stir the lang uorous
atmosphere.
But tits where Nature, tired Of her crown,
Comes TO tne earth in generous embrace,
Here, where she let's her radiant splendor
down,
That thou art won't, so near her shining face,
In mute delight reflected sun aud blue
To still pursue;
And poets say
They wereambition losing,
Tny amless pastime choosing,
Only to feel with thee, with thee ior once to
stray

Cardinal Cullen has issued summons
| to the Catholic bishops In Ireland, con-
voklng a synod in Maynootn on the 17th
inst. The special object OF the synod is
supposed to be the consideration OF the
educational system, the troubles OF the
| Church in Italy and the discipline Of the
Church in Ireland.

fight, had a, public man dared
to brave. the influence Of the
great monopolies Of the State headed by
the bank of California. In the progress
of events. this state of things had to
come to an end, and it was, perhaps,
better that the giant should overstep it.
self and end its career by terrible
crash, than that it. should live to be
slowly beaten down by the power and
intelligence of the people. Gov. Booth
had commenced the fight that was finally
to end in its annihilation. and 1t will be
better for all tnat the victory should
come in this way, as hard as it may be
for few weeks, than for it to have been
won after fight Of many years. The
embarrassment to other and more solid
ly conducted concerns will be but tenn
porary, and in few weeks, at farthest,
business on the coast will be in a better
condition than it has been since the
State was admitted into the Union. The
| fate OF MIR. Ralston is a most deplorable
one, but 1t is another lesson against the
custom of engaging in immense specula-
tions with other peoples funds. As
promising as the prospects may be, and
as rich as the returns at first may prove
there is always possibility of turn
in the tide, bringing reverses and ruin.
1t is nonsense to try to .construe this
California panic into a disaster to the
general business Of the country. 1t
arose from causes which nowhere else
exist, and Its influence is confined to the
other side of the Rocky mountains. We
can view 1t from here with as much
GOODNESS as il it were agitating France
instead Of one Of our own States, and
with as much certainty that it can in no
way affect the business interests of this
section. A little damage-a very little
may be done here by the attempt OF
political demagogues and by partisan
papers to impress people with the idea
that we are, in some unexplained way,
greatly interested in the Bank of Cali
fornia. and that its failure is to affect
the trade OF Cincinnati. But this fallacy
is too apparent to do much harm, and,
in spite OF people who would paralyze
business IN the interest Of political
trickery, we shall have brisk faH
trade.

THE terrible financial struggle through
which the Pacific coast is now passing
may, after all, result in.good to the pee-
pie of that monopoly section. The
Bank of California and its connections
has been the power that made California,
richest in her mineral wealth and most
productive In agricultural resources, the
worst State in the Union for the man
that had to earn living by his own labor
or by any legitimate business. This con-
teern was not, in the true sense, bank,
but vast accumulation of capital, ex-
tending its influence into, and controll-
ing, as far as 1T could, every branch ol
industry known to the coast. 1t owned
ships and ship-owners, ranches and
srancheros, hotels and hotel propri
etors, factories and manufacturers
In fact. there was no branch of business
in which a man could engage without
.finaing himself either I'm competition
with this vast power, or Ia some way
compelled to pay tribute to it. Its bane

of The State, and almost controlled both

THE new Constitution Of Nebraska, to
be voted on at the coming election, pre-
gents some especially novel features. 1t
provides that the Legislature preceding
that which is TO elect q new Senator may, +,
by ballot, express its preference tor u
person for that office, which vote may be
regarded as an expression OF popular
opinion by the next Legislature when it
comes to the work OF election, or may be
entirely disregarded. Another feature
is that it makes drunkenness a sufficient
cause for the impeachment Of public Off
GERS. County taxes, by it, are limited to
one and one-half per cent, and munich
pal Indebtedness to five per cent. Rail-
roads are declared public highways, ON
which the State may fix maximum
tariff. The first named provision will
probably be about as effective as the
wishes of predecessors in Office usually
are, and will be simply Of no effect. The
second named Is, however. good, as are
also the others, and would be q benefit
to the Constitution Of any State.
