THREE AND ONE
by ELLA WHEELER.

They stray through the sunlit summery weather'
Two maids and yonth meath skies oil olue'
And each of the three, as they Walk toSe1her'
IL secretly wishing there were but wo'
Yet the maidens loved each other dearly,
And both love the youth, If he only knew
Buthe loves one as sweet friend merely.
And the other he loves as lovers do
Che who has won his hearts best passion
Gives back fancy, a passing whimi
she loves him only coquette fashion,
While the other maid-she would die for him.
And while they wander across the meadows,
Their three hearts brimming with loves sweet
pain,
Fate Is sitting within the shadows,
Weaving for them a tangled skein.
And she shall weave till the autumn weather.
When III threads shall unravel and all come
straight;
nut well she loves to knot them together
And tangle the ends for time, doth Fate!
She at whose feet Is cast that treasure,
Il mans heart strong with loves full tide,
Shall use it awhile as a thngof pleasure,'
Bruse 1t, and break 1t, and cast 1t asde'
And she who is loved as a sweet friend only
Shall find 1t bleeding upon the ground
And being herself so sad and lonely
Shall strive through pity to heal the wound
And after time when she's hushed in grieving'
She shall take It with all its wounds and scars
And hide taway In her breast, believing
'Tis the richest treasure under the stars
mt the three walk on DER the sunlt meadows,
And dream all life is summer land
And they pass by one who sits in the shadows,
And see not the webs in her bony hand
And so we all while the days are fitting
Plan out future of joys and pains,
And see not Fate in the shadows sitting,
Knotting and tying the tangled skeins'
The VOWS we VOW with a fond Forever"
The pledges we deem there can naught beisll'
Fate with touch of her hand can sever;
All mel It's folly to plan at ALL
Those that we love may the soonest fall us
We may grow to worship where now we hate'
And what do ourpans and our dreams avail US
Better to leave it all with Fate. Ou,,.,

A Spicy and Protracted Discussion.
CLYMER REFUTES WILD RUMORS
WASHINGTON, March 8, 1876
THE SENATE.
P1NCHBACK NOT ADMITTED,

At the expiration of the morning hour
the Chair laid before the Senate the un-
finished business-a resolution for the
admission of P. B s. Pinchback, as Sen
ator from Louisiana.
The debate was lengthy and was par
ticipated in by Messrs. Logan, Harvey
and Morton, who favored the admission
of Pinchback, and Messrs. Paddock, Nor
rill (Vt.) and Edmunds, who opposed it.
The question then being on the amend
ment of Mr.. Edmunds, to insert The
word "not' before the word admitted"
80 that the resolution should read
ResOlved, That P. B. S. Pinchback be
not admitted as Senator from Louisiana
for term of six years beginning on the
4th of March, 1873. 1t was agreed to
yeas, 49, nays, 20, as follows:
Yeas-Messrs. Bayard, Caperton, Chris
tiancy, Cockrell, Cooper, Davis, Dennis,
Eaton, Edmunds, English, Gordon, John
son, Jones (Fla.), Kelly, Herman, Key,
McCreery, Mcdonald, Maxey, Merrimon,
Morrill, (Me.), Morrill, (Vt), Norwood,
Paddock, Randolph, Ransom, Salisbury,
Stevenson, Thurman, Wallace, Whyte and
Withers-32
Nays-Me ssrs. Allison, Anthony, Bout
well, Bruce, Cameron (Pa), Conkling,
Conover, Cragin, Dorsey, Ferry, Freling-
huysen, Hamilton, Hamlin, Harvey,
Hitchcock; Howe, Ingalls,, Jones (Nev.),
Logan, Mcmillan, Mitchell, Morton, Pat
terson, Sargent, Sharon, Sherman, Spen-
Ger, West and Windom-29.
Messrs. Bogy, Booth, Wadleigh, Gold
thwaite and Dawes, who would have
voted in the affirmative, were paired
with Messrs. Alcorn, Oglesby, Cameron
(Wis.), Clayton and Wright, who would
have voted in The negative. Those not
voting were Messrs. Burnside and Rob-
ertsOn.
The question then being on the resolu-
ton as amended, it was agreed to-yeas,
32; nays, 29, the yeas and nays being
taken and recorded as above.
While the vote was being taken, Pinch
back was on the floor of the Senate, and
stood near the entrance to one of the
cloak rooms. AS the roll call proceeded
he manifested some nervousness, and
soon after the vote was announced left
the chamber.
The Senate then, on motion of Mr..
Hitchcock, took up the bill to enable the
people of New Mexico to form a Consti.
tuition and State government, and for the
admission of said State into the Union
so it would come up as unfinished busi.
ness Tomorrow.
After an Executive session the Senate
adjourned.

SENATOR THURMANis said to be gaining
ground as Presidential candidate, but
the indications of such advance are not
apparent intb newspapers. He has one
firm friend in the atlanta Courier, how
ever, as witness the following: 1T is
our deliberate opinion that, with Blaine
and Thurman in the field, Thurman
would get rousing majority of the elec'
toral votes. But Thurman is, in our
opinion, the only man who can be sure
of carrying the flag to victory. Hen,
bricks is strong in the West, but could
not control the Eastern vote. Tilden
and Bayard are strong in the East, but
cannot control the Western vote. Thur
man can control Ohio, and is also as
strong in the East as any Eastern man
could be. His nomination is, in oul
opinion, the only key to the situation

the power of the House when the report
was made, the fact being that Marsh had
left the city three hours before.
Mr.. Blackburn made the correction,
but intimated that Blaine seemed to have
been keeping company with the witness,
or keeping close on his track.
Mr.. Blaine responded that he had nev.
er seen Marsh, and he never heard of
him until the case was brought before
the House. But that the fact of Marsh's
leaving the city at that time was a very
essential fact in the history of the case,
and so essential that after the newspa
pers throughout the United States had
blazoned it abroad that Marsh had been
frightened off by an order from the Elk,
ecutive Department. He (blaine) had
taken pains to find out when Marsh lett
the city.
Mr.. Danford, another member of the
Committee, stated his connection with
the matter. He had never heard it
spoken of till Saturday evening last,
when gentleman of credibiiity came to
him and said Mrs. Marsh would prove
certain matters alleged against the War
department., anu aSkeu lndI Slo po ouu
penaed at once. 1t was too late on Sat
urday evening to do it, and on Monday
morning he had come to the House and
found Chairman Clymer as soon as ne
could and asked that Mrs. Marsh be sub
penaed to appear forthwith before the
Committee. The Chairman's reply was
that he would gladly and willingly do it;
that he did not know the purpose for
which she was to be summoned, nor had
he (Danford) stated it, but that he would
bring her here and let her testify-le
her testimony strike where it might,
friend or foe. The name of the witness
had been given to the Chairman, who
had at once gone in the direction of the
office of the Sergeant-at-Arnls. That was
the entire connection that he (Danford)
had with the matter.
This ended the discussion, and the Sec
ond bill reported by the Judiciary Com
mittee was reCommitted
Adjourned.

To the Editors of The Argus
The much advertised Hayes and Wheel
er blowout at Cordova came Oft on Satur-
dav evening last and the weather seemed
to be in singular harmony with the sent-
ment of the meetipg-chiling all through.
The outpouring of Iowa and the vicinity of
Cordova fully demonstrate the necessary
precaution which was taken to have MIR.
Hawley bring his audience with him from
Rock Island and the towns along the way.
for the crowd that awaited his special
train could not have been more than 800
men, women and children. The proper.
ton of the latter was quite large to see the
promised display A band and torches,
numbering probably fifty or seventy five,
belonged to this crowd, and when Haw-
ley's imported crowd was added the
torches by actual count were 400, mostly
carried by boys, some quite small at that.
The whole crowd, including torch bearers,
may have mum bered 800 persons. There

ties similar to most of the leaders OF

Others Captain Shew's orchard was Az
vaded so uumerously as 10 compel him to
stand guard to save his fruit. The meet
ing was on the east side OF the Baptist
church, and the captain lives close by,
hence the invasion.
Mr.. HawIey did not commence his
speech until after 10 o'clock. He spoke
mainly in laudation of the Republican
party, and in condemnation OF the Demo
cratic party. H. stated that if Tilden was
elected the rebel debt would be paid but
afterwards corrected himself by saying
the rebel debt was unconstitutional, but
the rebal claims would be paid by the
| Democrats, but he failed to state that the
Republicans have already paid many of
these very claims, and he also failed to
say one word about quoting land titles 10
favor of railroad corporations, but he did
state that the management OF public affairs
by the Republicans down to the present
times was something of which every
American citizen ought to be proud. He
probably winked when he said that, [
know some of his audience did The whole
affair was tame, and did not make single
vote for Hayes
Our local Republican politicians were
hugely happy over the affair. For weeks
| they have been going about with gloomy
| faces elongated to an extent that was any
| thing but pleasant to behold, but what a
change last Saturday night was wrought
| in their countenances; the sudden trans
formation into broad grin as they met q
Tildeu man, and would say "How's that
| Big thing is mt it ?" made them look almost
as unnatural as before. Well [ could not
help but acknowledge that it was more ex-
tensive than an audience Of one janitor,
but then it was imported, and paid for,
probably out of Uncle Sans Exchequer
after all, but they, apparently, could not
realize that fact. and it would have been
cruel to have mentioned it in their pres.
ence could net help but feel happy my
self to see these erst so gloomy nelghbors
