GRANT OUGHT TO EXPLAIN

We are among those who believe that
President Grant ought to explain to this
Christian nation why he has pardoned
seven guagers convicted of using their Of
fetal powers to aid in defrauding the
revenue of the United States. We ex-
pressed, two weeks ago, fear that the
whisky men would soon be back in pow
er. The pardoning of seven office hol-
ders, convicted by iuries of defrauding
the revenue, looks very badly to us; and
there are intimations that the rest of Mr.,
Bristow's Jail birds will soon be given
free wings. The least prejudi1ed OBJ
servers will involuntarily think of the
charge that campaign funds came in 1872
from the whisky ring and ask hard ques-
tions.-UethOdiSt.

THE KIND OF MAN Mr., TILDEN Is
Mr.. Tilden is a slender, blue eyed ner-
vous gentleman, standing, perhaps, five
feet ten inches in his stockings. He has
little or no personal magnetism. Stran-
gers are not apt to find either his aD-
pearance or manners prepossessing. He
has, in fact, good deal Of that cold, re-
pelling reserve which is popularly (but
erroneously) attributed to the senior Mr..
Adams. He has won his way through
the world by sheer force of brains and
will. He is not man to inspire enthu-
siastic personal devotion. But he has
known how to make himself formidable
to his enemies, useful to his friends, and
necessary to his party,-SprinGfeld Re

WORK FOR HEA YEN.

If thou hast thrown a glorious thought
Upon life's common ways,
Should other men the gain have caught,
Fret not to lose the praise.
Great thinker often shalt thou find,
While folly plumbers fame,
To thy rich store the crowd is blind,
Nor knows thy very name,
What matter that, If thou uncoil
The soul that God has given;
Not in the worlds mean eye to toll,
But In the sight of heaven.
If fthou art true, yet in thee turks
For fame human sigh;
To nature go and see how works
That handmade of the sky.
Her own deep boUnty she forgets,
Is full ofgerms and seeds,
Nor glorlhes herself nor sets
Her flowers above her weeds.
She hides the modest leaves between,
She loves untrodden roads;
Her richest treasures are not seen
BY any eye but Gods,
Accept the lesson. Look not for
Reward from out thee chase
All selfish ends, and ask no more
Than to fulfil thy place.

Jules Verne's Journey to the Center
of the Earth" turns out to be not so i'm
probable as some might think, two
Young Icelanders having just descended
into a volcano that Verne speaks of, both
being situated in Iceland. At that
depth they came upon vast lake OF
seething hot water, barring all further
progress. Subterranean thunder was
heard, and the air was filled with dense
sulphuric smoke. The lake seemed to
be of great depth.
