Love and Death.

When the end comes, and we must say goodbye,
And am going to the quiet land;
And sitting il sone loved place hand In hand,
For the last time together, you and
We watch the winds blow, aud the sunlight lie
About the spaces OF our garden home
Soft by the washing OF the western foam,
Where we have lived and loved in days passed by:
We must not weep. my darling. or upbraid

But know that parting would not be such pain
Had lot our love perfect flower been made,
And we shall md 1t in Gods garden laid
On that sweet day wherein we meet again.

II one had watched prisoner many year,
Standing behind barred window-pane,
Fettered with heavy hHndcun and with chain,
And gazing on the blue sky, far and clear;
And suddenly, some morning, he should hear

His freedom and was safe, would this bring pain7
Ali would Il not to dullest heart appear
Good tidings?

The Winter has been severe Ia Paris,
aud the Figaro asks why the Belgian sys-
tenn OF roughing horses SHOULD not be
adopted there. In Belgium the horses
shoes are pierced with holes In which the
drivers themselves can screw pegs, which
is effected rapidly, without losing time and
without the least difficulty. The idea Is
practical.

N. Y. Tribune. Mr., George H. Pen,
dleton has been extensively assailed for
his conduct in the Kentucky Railroad
business, on the theory that he was the
guardian of the Bowler heirs, and that
he was thus bound by his duty as guar.
dian, as we'll as by his duty as President
of the road, to preserve for the heirs (who
were its principal stockholders the large
sum of money which he received for col
lecting its war claim. 1t is curious in
stance of the way in which injustice is
done by the wide acceptance of a first
hasty impression, that throughout the
country this supposed relationship of
Mr.. Pendleton to the Bowler heirs, as
guardian, has been cited as the chief
reason for finding fault with his action.
In point of fact it now appears that MIR,
Pendleton is not, and never was, the
guardian of the Bowler heirs. Journals
which have made the mistake ought in
justice to him make prompt and COM
plete correction.

loans on District certificates as collateralss
and the simple pledge of Boss Shepherd
and Stubbs Magruder got $4,000 one
Saturday night in November, 1878, on
check drawn by Magruder on the First
National Bank for $4,000, and 10000
Certificate of the Board of Public Works
The check was not good, for there was
no money to the credit of Magruder IN
the First National Bank, and Stickney
held it until he learned that the appro-
priation made by Congress was placed, to
the credit of the Board of Public WORKS
and then he got the 100000, The other
$4,000 ran along until February or
March, 1874, when Shepherd wanted
another loan of $4,000. The $40, 900 was
added in making $4,000, and for this
the bank finally had to take board certlti-
Gates at S5 cents. When loan of $4,000
was made to Vandenburg, in November,
1872. Stickney says Shepherd promised
that out of the first appropriation made
by Congress the bank should be rcim-
bursed the whole amount of the loans to
Vandenburg, then about $lOO,OOO,, but
when the appropriation was made Shep-
herd would only allow the bank to get
$40 900.

COURIER. JOURNAL: The Cincinnati Ga
zette is very much exercised over what
it calls Democratic ISLANDERS against Sec
retsry Bristow and other Presidential
candidates, forgetting that all the ISLAM
ders" thus far sprung on Bristow, Blaine
and the rest, have originated with the
Republicans, General Boynton, the Ga
zette's Washington correspondent, has
repeatedly told US THAI eleven rings,
known to be engineered by Republicans,
are seeking to crush Bristow, and the
Blaine scandal was certainly the fruitage
of Mortonian plotting. The Democrats
have nothing to do with these charges
except to print them, read them, and
watch the scratching and tearing OF rep
utations going on in the radical family,

The Cincinnati Enquirer keeps stand
ing at the head of Its editorial columns
a resolution entitled " The Allen County
Increment for 1876" The Enquirer has
a fondness for Allen County movements
Three years ago, when Doan Cunning
ham and Sam Cary secured the adoption
of resolution in Allen County substanti-
ally advocating the disbandment of the
Democratic party of Ohio, the Enquirer
hurrahed for the "Allen County Move
ment," but Judge Thurman and the rural
Democratic newspaper knocked the
breath out of the movement, and the En-
guirey yielded to the fiat. 1t does not
forgive Judge Thurman for adhering to
the Democratic party.-C2e0eland Rai"

THEBARTLEY OF TO DAY

It seems that Mr.. T. w, BARLEY, the
hero of the 1903 rejected cotton claims,
was the same Democrat whom old WI
liam Allen caught intriguing against him
when many years ago when he was a
candidate for the Senate. The remark
of foghorn William on that occasion is
historical. Shaking hig bony finger at
BARLEY, the sageo of Fruit Hill said: Sir.
you are a..dirty dog, and you had lived
in the days Of Jesus Christ you would
have sold him for less than three pieces
of silver" TIE BARLEY of those days

The banks are contracting the currency
in order to get more money to loan the
people. This is very simple business
matter. Here is bank with, we will
saw for convenience of calculation, $lOO-
600 invested in bonds. The bonds are
at premium of twenty per cent The
circulation authorized on the $lOO,O0O
par value of bonds is 100000, By with
drawing the circulation, taking out the
bonds and selling them, the bank increa-
ses its currency for business purposes to
the amount of $4,000. This is what the
banks are doing to an extent that is CON
tracing the currency very rapidly, and
at the same rate increasing the available
money.-Cin. Com.

Perhaps the Cincinnati Enquirer will
call us a liar for saying that at one time
it was as much enamored with Tom
Scott of Pennsylvania, for President as
it is now with Allen. Ifthe Enquirer is
not too busy in writing up Allen, killing
off Thurman, and demolishing every
Democratic paper that differs with it, we
would like to have it tell what influence
was brought to bear to make it skedad-

THE brutality of Caulfeld in examin-
ing Davenport is justly censured. Black"
guards are out of place at the head OF I'M
portant committees.-Di Dispatch.
Mr.. Caulfeld was very brutal-he IN
sisted that Davenport should tell the
whole truth, and explain just how, he
spent the money placed in his hands
Any man is brutal who insists that a
Radical official shall tell what becomes
of the contents of the Treasury. The
savage brutality of Mr.. Clymer's Com
mittee, who exposed Belknap; Jenks
Committee that unearthed the Pension
frauds the committee that brought Gov,
ernment Printer Clapp to book, and all
the other committees that are engaged
in unearthing frauds, are brutal to the
last degree Their predecessors in the
halcyon days of Radicalism used to cover
ND and whitewash these things; and 1t
was only when brutal Democratic
House got into power that Radical thieves
were disturbed in their downy nests, and
their unparalleled larcenies exposed to
the gaze of Mortified public. The bru-
tality ofthe exhibition is enough to con-
sign the Democrats to defeat, and the re-
instatement of the Radicals to power
With a Radical majority in the House
once more these stealings would be ma
den from view, and Belknap and Bah
cock would put on purple and tlne linen
and sit in high places.--PihS. Post

The spectacle of two such men man
aging the Democratic factions of New

ton in their State convention, is charm

Democratic politics, That graduated

should be acknowledged leaders OF a

ing lease of power, is something TO
waken laughter under the ribs Of Death

That is true, The people would vote
for him, knowing his integrity of charac-

plan to all of our candidates this year, and
to the party itself. Owing to the great
