fendant's road. He returned on the
18th of December, and on the 18th at
Fort Wayne, the conductor refused to
take the ticket, asserting that it was
changed. The General Agent being
on the train, was consulted, and deci-
ded that the ticket was good, and re-
quested the conductor to inform the
next conductor to accept the ticket

Wayne, and remained for ten DAYS.

pronounced the ticket to be all riehl.
and desired him to get on the express
train and he would reach Chicago as

Who lIr. Morrison Is.

|
! General Morrison, the new Chair
man Of the Ways and Means Com
mittee, bears a name new to the pub
lie ear but widely known among the
most sagacious and trusted counsel
lors of the. Democracy. Never an
orator either upon the stump or upon
the floor of popular Conventions or
legislative bodies, he is in better re-
pute as a man whose solid Judgment
and weighty and trusted good sense
have many time in such bodies
forecast and determined the final de-
cisions which orators have common
ded and approving ballots have reg
istered. To-day he is without ex-
ception the most influential man in
the counsels Of the Democracy of H.
linois. To him more than to any
other man, except Speaker Kerr him
self, the election Of Mr.. Kerr as
Speaker is due, for it was he who
marshaled and led the forces which
won that victory for sound Democra-
cy. To him more than to any other
man it was due that the Illinois De-
mocracy, standing shoulder to Shout
der with the Democracy Of New
York in the great campaign of 1874,
declared with unfaltering accents and
unhesitating purpose that under the
banner of Hard Money, Free Trade
and Home Rule they would win or
lose their desperate fight with the
hosts of Initiation, Protection and
Capitalization. To him more than
to any other man it was due that our
splendid victory in the Empire State,
reversing Governor Dix's majority Of
$4,000 with 10000 majority for Gov
ernor Tilden, was matched with the
splendid victory of 10000 Democrat
ic majority in the Empire State Of
the Wcst--a State overwhelmingly
Republican in every election since
the birth of the Republican party
A Hard Money Democrat, Reve-
nue-Tariff Democrat, a Home Rule
Democratic his hands the shaping
of new issues, and the furtherance of
wise reforms, in the face Of hostile
Senate and a hostile President, can
assuredly be most safely trusted.

THE CLOSING YEAR.
BY G. D. PRENTICE.

'Tis midnight's holy hour--and silence
now
Is brooding, like a gentle spirit, DER
The still and noiscless world. Hank
on the winds ;.
The BELLS deep notes are swelling. IT'S
the knell
OF the departed year.
No funeral train
Is sweeping past; yet OIL the stream and
wood,
With melancholy light, the moonbeams
rest,
Like pale spotless shroud; the air is
stirred,
As by mourner's sigh; and on yon
cloud,
That floats so still and placid'y' through
The spirits of the seasons seem to stand
Young Spring, bright Summer, Au-
tunln's solemn form,
And Winter with his aged .ccks-anil
breathe
In mournful cadences. that come abroad!
Like the far wind.harp's wild and
touching wall,
A melancholy dirge DER the dead Year,
Gone from the earth forever.
K II X X
Remorseiess Time!
Fierce spirit of the glass and scythe-
what power
Can stay him in his silent course, or
melt
His iron heart to pity? On, still on
He presses, and forever.
Revolutions sweep
Der earth, like troubled visions DER the
breast m
OF dreaming sorrow: cities rise and
sink,
Like bubbles on tire water; fiery isles
Spring, blazing, from the ocean, and go
back
10 their mysterious caverns; noun
tains rear
10 heaven their bald and blackened
cliffs, and bow
Their tall heads to the plain; new En-
pires rise,
Gathering the strength Of lloary cen
b turtles, ~ <I.fss 81
And rush down like the Alpine Ava
lanche,
Startling the nations; and the very
stars,
Yon bright and burning blazonry OF
God,
Glitter awhile in their eternal depths,
And, like the Pleiad, loveliest of their
train,
Shoot from their glorious spheres and
pass away, :.
10 dark'e in the tracklcss void; yet

Time, the tomb-builder, holds his fierce
career,
Dark, stern, all-pitiless, and pauses moi
Amid the mighty wrecks that strew lis

Upon the fearful ruin he has wrought.
