PIONEERS OF THE PACIFIC.

 " bat lives they lived? what deaths they rEh died, 4 thousand canyons. darkness wide Below Sierra's slope of pride, Receive them now. And they who died Along the dim, far desert route, Their ghosts are many. Lei them keep Their vast possession. The Plute, The tawny warrior, will dispute No boundary with these. And l, Who saw them live, who felt them die, Say, let their unplowed ashes sleep. The bearded, sun-browned men who pore The burden of that frigh1ul year, Who toiled, but did not gather store, They shall not be forgotten. Drear And white. the plains of Shoshone Shall point us to the farther shore, And long. white shining lines of bones Make needless sign of white mile-stones. Tho wild mans veil, the grooming wheel; The train that moved like drifting barge; The dust that rose up like cloud, like smoke of distant battle! Loud The great whips rang like shot, and steel Flashed back as in some battle charge. rbav soupht-yea. they did find their rest Along that long and lonesome way, Those brave men bufieting the West With lifted faces. Full were they Of great endeavor.
 Brave and true As stern crusader clad in steel, They died afield, as if was flt. Made strong with hope, they dared to do Achievement that host to-day Would stagger at, stand back and reel, Defeated at the thought of 1t. What brave endeayor to endure! What patient hope when hope was past! What still surrender at the last, A thousand leagues from hope! How pure They lived, how proud they died! How generous with life!
 The wide And gloried age of chivalry Hath not one page like this to me. Let all these golden days go by I breathe beneath another sky. Let beauty glide in gilded car, And find my sundown seas afar, Forgetfnl that 'tis but one grave From east unto the wcstmost wave. Yes, remember! The still tears That o,er uncoffined faces fell! The final silent, sad farewell! God these are with me all the years! They shall be with me ever. l Shall not forget. hold trust. They are part of my existence. When Adown the shining iron track We sweep, and fields of corn flash back, I turn to other days, to men Who made pathway with their dust.

What is the cure for gossipa Simply culture. There is great deal of gossip that has no malignity in it. Good natured people talk about their neighbors because, and only because they have nothing else to talk about. There are country neighbor- hoods in which gossip rages like pest. Churches are split in pieces by it. Neigh bors are made enemies by it for life. In many persons it degenerates into chronic disease which is practically incurable. Let the young cure it while they may.

fnd him saying with much truth, that
Tho simple principle Of the American
school-laws 10 that the people can be
trusted to attend to their own business
And here: Every movement is forward.
In tho ultimate accomplishment OF the
destiny Of the republic. the usefulness
and success of it's education system and
its influence as first measure in the de-
velopment of national power and pros
perity are unlimited"
Here we have outlined in brief. what
has been lately said touching two OF the
very important interests of the United
States as at present, under Republican
rule and fostering they exist. We hnd
that by q system Of wise enactments. the
west aud western rivers. the natural
highways of commerce and the artificial
channels of trade have been so widened
and deepened and multiplied as that our
farmers out bid even the cheap labor OF
Russia in supplying Great Britain with
her breadstufrs. We find that, despite
all the mumbliug problems Of State
Sovereignty and Federal Capitalization.
spite OF nll opposition to the general
course of the most enlightened poilcy
ever pursued by This people. commerce
and agriculture have marched hand IN
hand and taken possession of the most
important traffic in Europe. The Mis-
sissippi runs invoked to the sea. anu out
into the sea rs never before, cutting its
own great channel as it goes. And yet
until fifteen years ago, the Democratic
partv had very strong hand upon the
course and current not only of the Mis-
sissippi River but of tho country. The
foregoing evidence shows the status OF
our public school system-a system
which does not find its birth in any
Democratic State; System which he's
not needed the fostering care OF the
South to develop it; a system which does
not iansnish for want Of Mr.. Samnel j..
Tilden's manner and method OF reform
The Republican record will stand ap-
proved. 1t will be uninterrupted. II
contains all that has been worth having
done and perpe.uated (ssve what is pre-
served for reference in the captured

the elections Of 1860. The Atlantic
cable; the Pacific railroad; the mail car
system; the overland telegraph; tbs night

The Safc-BurSiary Trial.

Colonel Cook making the opening arsu-
ment for the defense. General Bah
cock on the behalf OF Somerville.
Justice Miller of the SHIFTED States
Supreme Court and DIR. j. B. Blake.
formerly member of the Boarn OF Pub
lie Works, testified that the reputation
of General Babcock before his lndlct-
ment at St. Louis was as good as any
mans.
Nettleship (recalled) testified that as
far as he knew Somerville knew nothing
of the safe burglary, and only appeared
professionally.
Ex-Governor Shepherd testified that
under the law it was Babcock's duty to
certify to work done adjacent to Gov
eminent parks and avenues, and that he
(Shepherd) requested Babcock to have
work measured as promptly as possible
Anumber Of witnesses testified TO the
GOOD character and official integrity OF

save myself, and had to put it on Bah
cock Whitley said he had put Bah
cock in a hole and intended 10 keep
him there. The case will probably go
to the jury tomorrow evening:
The friends of Babcock are jubiisnt
Tonight, and the general verdict pass
ed by them is that no case can be
made against him. Even the most
positively opposed to Babcock's acqni-
tai. which is now looked on as an as
sured fact, say a case might have been
made against Babcock with reputable
witnesses, but assailed by such un-
scrupulous and irresponsible charac
tiers. he shines ont as an injured man
before the public, and is presump
lively innocent Of any completely nth
or knowledge of the safe-burgiary.

during the seven wears from 1867:

The committee say they have no pos
tive information for 1874, but they have
reason to believe the result is less favor
able to Russia than that of 1873. The
figures given above show that in seven
years Russia and tbs United States have
in this very important matter changed
positions. In 1866 Russia supplied Al
per cent and the United States II per
cent. Of England's demand Tor foreign
wheat; in 1873 the United States sup
piled A per cent, and Russia only Il
per cent. The Odessa Committee have
no illusions; they indulge no hope that
even a more prosperous harvest IN Rus-
STA will turn the scnle, but rather believe
that the United States will take still
higher position among the grain pro-
ducers of the world. Congress has
granted $2.OO0,O0O for deepening the
mouths Of the Mississippi, and on the
completion of these works 1he cost OF
the TRANSPORT of wheat from Chicago TO
England will be diminished by more
than so per cent The Odessa Com
mittee see in a near future the United
States so absolutely the controller Of the
prices Of the London market that we
shall be utterly unable to compete with
her" Thus quotes Mr.. Arnold. Ger
tainly this does not present very dis
couraging seven years of Republican
rule, within which. as he aptly quotes.
Congress has appropriated So, 600 600
for deepening the mouths of the Mis-
sissippi." This, it strikes us, is most
excellent testimony concerning our pros
perity from dieinterested and competent
Witnesses
And now, in another direction. let us
SEQ what is said Of rs by competent OBJ
servers abroad. Mr. Francis Adams,
Secretary Of the National League for
promoting elementary education in Eng
land. has recently been writing book
upon the School System Of the United
States. He is very careful observer.
OF the quality of our public school
teachers he says. 1.-THE Giles and
large towns possess a class of teachers
not to be surpassed in the world"
Touching that part of the subject
which comes nearest the American
heart, Mr.. Adams says: "If it be
true, as it probably is, that the Roman
Catholic hierarchy would not be con-
tent with anything short of the divi-
sion of the school fund, the last thing
they would rejoice to see would be
the expulsion of the Bible from the
schools. 1t would deprive them of their
present undoubted grievance. We also

Our Democratic friends have been try
ing very hard for good while to make
the Republican party seem odious to the
moral element Of the country. Much OF
this attempt has been like unto the effort
of an idler to expose the mistakes OF an
industrious workingman; much OF 1t has
taken on the look of professional thief
trying to entrsp an unwary and mex
perienced, careless business man
much Of it has seemed like the
effort of a blistered harlot to cast re-
proach upon the character OF good
women and honest mothers. Some Of
the criticisms directed against the Re-
publican record Of the past fifteen years
has been well directed. But the bulk OF
it has been of tho nature of malicious
prosecution. Meantime. we hear much
prievous talk Of hard times. The party
in power, rs it has been said. has much
to do with these hard times. Having
assumed that the times are hard, it is
easy for the Democratic mind to shift
the burden Of the responsibility for those
hard times upon the universal pack
horse, 1.-The party in power No doubt
the times have been hard. 1t would be
q wonder, if after such tremendous
war as we had when We demolished the
Southern rebellion there did not come
reaction of even harder times than We
have seen. The temptation to trade has
been very great; Inventions and manufac-
tures have accumulated in an unwcntet
degree, even to the shipping of cotton
and iron and wooden fabrics 10 Eng
land; and not enough of the men who
were turned, idle. out Of the army went
west and got farm. But We have the
best Of authority for say ing that the peo-
ple of the United States are very much
less embarrassed by hard times than the
the people of European countries.
Caleb Gushing. among others, has been
quoted AS an authority ia this statement.
No doub, he is correct. But let US gee
what others than Mr.. Gushing, others,
indeed. than any merely American or
even English authority have to cay upon
an important branch of this subject. Mr.
Arthur Arnold, cautious and careful
writer, has been compiling for Frasier' s
Magazine some important facts about
the grain trade of Russia. He quotes
from report of the Odessa Committee
on Trade and Manufactures to the
Council for Trade and Manufactures in
St. Petersburg 10 exhibit the remarkable
change which has occurred within the
past seven or eight years in tie grain
trade between Russia aud Great Britain
and the United States and Great Britain.

8, 900, 900 to Il 100000 quarters Of for
eign whe, required by England, the
proportions supplied by Russia and the
United States have been ~ follows

General Braxton Bragg, the man to

have addressed his suggestion relative
to . "little more grape" fell down
dead at Galveston, Texas, on Wednes-
day morning. His death was caused
by heart disease. Bragg, who was
educated at West Point, was quite a
conspicuous rebel officer. The infor-
nation comes from rebel sources that
he was most unrelenting and Inerci-
less in his cruelty toward his own men

shot them summarily and oftentimes
