UNREADY.
BY HON. FELIX r.. BRUNoT.

/ am hammering at the anvil,
am holding at the pillow,
0 Death hear your summons,
Butt cannot heed it now /;
Know you not that stocks are rising?
See you not I'm pushing on
Buying, building, scheming, thriving,
Half my life-work not yet done.
Day by day the spikes are driven,
Day by day the rails go down (;
When the work and werry's ended.
Mine the riches and renown
Then but waiting for the grasping-
Civic honors loom before;
I must win them,-when / wear them
Death, III drop the laboring oar.
No / canoot heed your summons
See you not I've work to do
When my threescore years are over,
Then, o Death, I'll think Of you;
Then, I'll listen to your calling,
Rid my soul of every load,
Grid me ready for the journey,
Trim my lamps, and mark the road.
Lightly, then I'll reach the river,
Stoutly breast the rolling tide
Oh | give time to face the Judgment,
Waiting on the other side
When--ah how your bony fingers
Strain my heaftstrings, chill my brow
DEATH @ grasp me not so tightly

The Check Of the Heather
Chinee.
[Erona tie Laramie SUM-

From tie Laramie Sun.
One of our city guardians was
standing on the corner of Second
and B streets yesterday, when a
Withholding Chinaman came up,
hurriedly siezed him by the arm,
and said:
"You ketch-um-saw?'
"Yes.o
"You no savoy; you ketcb UNI
saw-ee, dem saw-buck-ee. You
savoy ?"
The officer was bewildered, and
thinking some terrible crime had
been committed, endeavOr9d to
get the Celestial to explain.
John repeated over every word
of English that he had ever learn
ed, yet still he could not make
himself understood. Finally, he
siezed the officer by the arm, and
saying Come long," started off at
a rapid pace, followed by the eager
official. They went first to wash
house on B street, into which the
Chinaman looked, and then, with
a shake of the head, struck out
again.
"Skipped out, has he ?" asked
the officer as he pounded along,
using every endeavOr to keep up
with the Monaghan.
"On they went at a rattling
pace until a house near the roll
ing-mill was reached, into which
John looked, and shaking his
hand dashed off on the back track.
"Where now"
"Come long," said John,and on
they went.
They travelled all over the town,
and at last reached shanty near
the round house. The officer was
by this time nearly dead with ia
tigue, and was covered with pers-
piration.
Going up to the door, John
snow we catch-um.'
Thinking there might be a des-
perate crew inside, the officer
drew his revolver, and they enter
ed the door. A small man was
sitting on the floor, and in him the
officer recognized Jim" an Eng
lish Chinaman.
"What's the row now Jim ?" he
asked.
"He hunt me so / interpret what
he say"
"Well, what is it 2"
The two jabbered minute and
Jim said:
HE wantee borrow saw-buck,
an somebody tell-ee him you lend
um one"
"Saw-buck be dashed! Here |
have walked no less than twenty
miles after that rice-mashing hpa-
then, thinking murder had been
committed or something terrible
had been done. You tell him that
II he ever speaks to me again I'll
mash him into the ground.
And he returned to his beat.

WADpELL, of North Carolina, says his peo-
pie admire BAYARD, like THURMAN and HEN
DRlcKs, don't object to TlLDES, but fear he
can't carry New York, and, finally, arc for

that this is not so. It is Mr. WADDELL who
is Tor Judge DAVIS. Hon. J. d. WILLIAMS,
OF Indiana, is for IIENDRICks. Hon. La
FAYETTE LANE, OF Oregon, said "the De-
mocracy Of the Pacific slope is for In.DES.
That Oregon is for TILDES he speaks with
assurance" Hon. 2. D. WIGGINToN, OF
california, said that in California the De-
mocracy were for TlLDEN. They will not
be tenacious, but they believe the best in
forests OF the country demand his nomina-
ton. He added that If any soft-money man
is nominated the Pacific Coast is lost. LANE

New YORK AND TILDES.-The Tribune
says OF the Ohio folly " On the Democratic
side, also, the result makes New York the
decisive battlefield. ii that party does not
tumble overheard its heresies and its luna
tics, and make such nomination that it can
hope to carry this State, it may as well nomi-
nate nobody"
The World recently said:
"The southern States, Democratic in the
last elections, cast 127 electoral votes. The
Pacific States, Democratic in the last elcc-
tons, cast II electoral votes. The Metro
politan States, Democratic in the last cleo
tions,-to wit, New York, New Jersey, and
Connecticut-cast so electoral votes. To-
gether these States cast $50 electoral votes
more than majority. A candidate and a
platform at the st. Louis Convention which
Shall satisfy the public sentiment OF these
three groups of States will not fail to give a
Democratic administration to the country.
The Pacific and these three Metropolitan
States can be carried, and can only be car
ried, by candidate whom the country may
trust to reform the Federal Administration
altogether, its vicious currency and its
grinding taxation included. The path to
victory is open and clear"

TILDEN'S SUPPORTERS AT THE NATIONAL
OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES GOVERNOR DoRsHEI-
MER BACKING HIS OPINI0SS.-The Tllden
forces here are working like beavers to en-
courage the sentiment for Mr.. Tilden rs the
candidate at st. Louis. Tom Dreamer has
been reinforced by acknowledgements
Dorshcimer, whose massive proportions
were conspicuous on the floor OF the House
to-day. The Tilden propagandsts have
taken sumptuous quarters at the Arlington,
where they pursue at night the canvassing
work adjourned from the halls OF Congress.
Dorsheimer, while chatting with party OF
friends tonight, referred to the nomina-
tion of Tilden at st. Louis rs a
certainty, and then offered to bet, il
such an event, Tildcn would carry the
State OF New York by $4,000 majority. The
bet is coniectured to have been boast to
influence some Ohio Democrats in the party
of listeners. Whatever the motive OF the
offer, DorShcimer was quickly taken up by
criticising Republican, who asked pithily,
60 For how much?"
"a thousand dollars" instantly replied
Governor Dorsheimr; whereupon both
gentlemen proceeded to the desk OF the no.
tel and drew their checks each for Sl,0OG.

The VOICE OF NORFOLK. From the pif-
gilman OF Saturday. MIR. Hendricks Is
now the only prominent western candidate
for the Democratic nomination, and the ac-
ton Of the Ohio Convention has doubtless
very much injured his chances by REOPEN
ing the issue and widening the breaeh' be-
tween the East and West on this question.
The great fact to be kept in view by the
St. Louis Convention is the necessity OF
carrying New York, New Jersey, and Con-
necticut. The man who can most certainly
do this is the coming man OF the Democracy,
be his name Tilden, or Seymour, or Han
cock, or Hendricks. Hendricks we do not
think it will be, now that the Ohio Conven-
ton has declared its intention to repeat the
blunder Of last fall. Experience is hard
school, and most persons will condescend
to profit by it, but there are some people
who can neither be persuaded nor cuffed
into reason, and the Ohio Democrats seem
to belong to that class.
AS the case now stands, Indiana is the
only western State that can be counted
doubtful. The others may be set down as
undoubtedly Republican. We cannot afford
to risk the great States OF the East on the
bare possibility of State which we can do
very we'll without If we can carry these and
the States OF the Pacific slope. The South
is good for any Democratic candidate, take
what shape or name he will; but there is no
use OF piling our 127 votes on q man who
cannot carry besides them enough to make
up the 1S5 necessary to success.

Compromise.

= Va. e y
ar,o ,ct;oa of the Ohio Convention has
fallen amongst the politicians, and burst IKE
: shell OF enormous dimensions. They
know not what to do. We give such news
30 we car, gather as to the effect in Wash
;ncton. The New York Herald suggests
that TlIDES may be unable to gettwo-thirds
OF the votes in the st. Louis Convention,
and that the hard-money men may be
willing to compromise by taking west
crn candidate upon condition that they
be allowed TO have the platform. The
unwisdom OF New York editors is pro-
verbal. They know less of politics
than any other editors in the Union.
The World runs off to BAYARD~ The Tn
6ane seems to fly back to TLDEs. But the
.Hera!ds idea is the most impractical OF all
that have been called forth by the occasion.
There can be no compromise at st. Louis.
There can be nothing but fight, and either
a victory or defeat for the Democratic
party. OF course, it were the very mad
ness OF the moon TO nominate q
southern man for President. lie would be
one would be to betray the Democratic
party into the hands Of the Republicans. II
would be AUGUST BELMONT and the Worlo
selling out the party because the Repnbil'
cans are more worthy to be trusted on finan-
cial questions than the Democrats. Nor
will the Democratic States OF the North con-
sent to nominate 4 western man, or ono
whose views on finance would afford the
eastern Democrats an excuse for indiiter-
ence.
There is but one course left. The south
ern Democrats must go to st. Louis ana,
refusing to readopt the two-thIrds ruie'
render the nomination Of TILDES certain
beyond doubt. To allow such rule TO
be adopted when Ohio has sent up such
nIatiorm and such a candidate as she has to
that Convention would be to imperil unno-
ccssarily the success OF the Democratic
party.
Firnness. courage. capacity, political sa-
oacitv, ability TO lead-thesc must be the
characteristics OF the men whom virginia
is to send to st. Louis. These should be
the characteristics sought for by all the
southern States. The country is in peril.
"Look TO the South Here, said the late
HORACE GREELEY, are "the shrewdest pol
iticians in the world" BY shrewdness we
understand that practical, common-sense,
that devotedness to the public interests, and
that sclf-abnegation which qualify men to
be leaders in times like these.

Francis w. Dawson, OF the Ne,rS and C0,t-
rier, Charleston, 5. c." The facts in me-
moirs of the kind before us are usually OBJ
tanned from their subject. In this case,
there seems to have been the most candid
statement possible OF the history OF DAw.

for the Richmond Examiner afterwards,
how he was offered better pay at the Dis
