| come, come from my spirit home.
Like a bind 10 the early spring,
To the loved ones here whom my heart holds
dear,
A message of love to bring.
Ola the heavens are wide, but the cannot divide
The spirits whom love makes free:
The green old earth and the land of my birth,
With its homes are still dear TO me.
The phantoms of pain 10 my burning brain
Have fed from the heavens clear light;
l lie no more the lakes lone shore,
In the fever dreams Of night.
| am safe from hate, aud the storms of fate,
And that which the world calls sin;
No longer wait at the golden gate,
For the angels have let me in.
Oh not too soon, though at lfe's high noon,
Was the close of my earthly day;
As the roses fade, the evening shade,
passed from earth away;
And knew not the blight Of the bitter night
Wnch withers the autumn fiowers,
Or the length ming years with their weight OF
fears,
Which burden the spirits powers.
In the forest wide, by the lakes green side,
The angels bad whispered low,
From over the sea they had called to me,
And knew that soon must go;
But felt no fear when knew they were near,
Nor shrank from the narrow way;
For / caught faint CLEANS OF the CT, stall streams,
And the light of the heavenly day.
oh the angels bright, with their robes of light,
The clasp of each gentle hand.
And the eyes that smlled on earth's weary child,
As entered the better land
But words weak. when the soul would speak
Of the angel home above;
Faint visions alone are TO man made known
/, OF that dwelling Of light and love.
Nv home is there, in that world so fair
But the space is not deep or wide.
Which lies between this earthly scene,
And the no ne on the other side.
The thought OF love, like q carrier dove,
shall the hearts fond message bear,
And the angel bands, with their willing hands,
Shall answer each earnest prayer.
Fare We WE'LL farewell. NV spirit can dwell
In The earthly form no more;
But whittier go, and the way ye shall know,
To your home on the other shore.
So on, over the sea, ye shall walk with me
On the hills by the angels trod,
In The garments OF white of the sons of light
In the freedom and peace Of God.

AN ANECDoTE OF OLD HICKORY

Ben Perley Poore recalls the following
anecdote of General Jackson, when, as
military commander in Florida during
the administration of President Monroe,
he had tried at a drumhead court martial
and hanged two Englishmen who had in
cited, it was said, an insurrection among
the Indians. President Monroe feared
that Great Britain would make trouble
about this, and summoned the General
to Washington before the cabinet. John
Quincy Adams, then Secretary of State,
who had instructed Jackson to govern
with firm hand in Florida, defended
him, and read long argument in which
he quoted International law as expound>
ed by Crotius, Vattell and Puffendorff.
Jackson listened in sullen silence, but in
the evening, when asked at dinner part
ty whether he was not comforted by Mr..
Adams citation of authorities, he eX-
claimed 4; "What do l care about those
old musty chaps ? "Blast Grotius, blast
Vettel, and blast the Pufien chap. This
is fight between Jim Monroe and me,
and mean to fight it OUT

GROWTH OF FRANCE.

From the census of 1876 it appears
that France is divided into 46,057 COM
munes or towns. with a population of
SO, 905, ,7oS inhabitants. From 1872 to
1876 the population of France has in
creased in a larger ratio than formerly.
This increase, amounting to S02, 1857 in-
dividuals, is found especially in the
cities. Paris has $4,000 more inhabi-
tants than it had four years ago. Toul-
ouse 2l,000 and Lyons 10000. Nancy
having received many OF the Alsatians
who choose to remain French, has had
an increase of about forty per cent. Ut
is also worthy of notice that whilst
France was thus increasing in popula-
tion she exported cereals and wine to
the value of $500,000,00O, which would
be sufficient to sustain 100000 men
during five years. These facts are GER
tainly significant.

Strange Scene in a Brooklyn Court-Afrs.
Hooper Begging for Mercy.
Mr.. Mary D. Hooper, the beautiful and
fashionable looking woman who was con-
victed of grand larceny in the Kings
County Court Of Session for having
stolen the diamond jewelry of her friend,
Mrs. William Delaney of 212 High street,
Brooklyn, was arraigned yesterday for
sentence. She was dressed in a becom-
ing suit Of black cashmere, and wore an
| an aureole black hat from which drop
ped thin veil that was drawn close
about her face. Her eyes were swollen
with " Weeping, ,and her pale face indicated
that she had passed sleepless night.
She walked slowly to the Clerks desk,
and trembled as the usual questions were
put to her. She said that she was 20 years
| of age, and that she had never been in
prison before. On being asked whether
she had anything to say why sentence
should not be pronounced on her, she
seemed to be thinking of a reply, 'as
Judge Moore addressed her, saying. "1t
is the uniform practice of this Court, In
cases where persons are convicted of
crime for the first time, and nothing is
known against their previous character,
and the crime is not one of particular
atrocity or enormity, to impose the
lowest sentence prescribed by the statute,
and the lowest sentence in case like is
one year. That is your sentence"
Mrs. Hooper buried her face in her
hands, and then, letting her hands fall,
she said, piteously: "Oh, mercy, Judge,
have mercy! Have pity on me! have
pityp
She tottered. and was about to fall. as
Officer Hamilton seized her about the
waist and supported her. She was led
out of the court room, and Just as she
reached the door she fell, fainting. The
stalwart officers picked her up bodily
and carried her into the Sheriff's office
where she quickly recovered. She
seemed to be crushed by her sentence,
and said, over and ever, "Oh, my poor
father! 1t will kill hlm!" Officer Hamil-
ton tried in vain to shield her from the
view of gaping Gro wd that had hurried
into the room.
Her maid, Nellie Hughes, who has
been held as witness, was discharged,
and the Court ordered that $25 be paid to
her, as she was friendless and penniless
in the city.
Much sympathy was felt for Mrs.
Hooper, who in every stage of the case
since her arrest, has behaved like a
gentlewoman used to the kindest treat
ment.

THE MEXICAN GENTLEMAN.

The rich Mexican surrounds himself
with the comforts of life, says a cores
Pondent of the Chicago Times, according
to his own peculiar ideas ofIcomfort. To
dress well, and bedeck himself with gold
and silver and ornamental trappIngs
gegawss, ,gimcracks, anything protentious
to smoke cigarite every ten minutes
to eat plain food, served with all manner
of seasonings; to sleep half the day and
carouse three-fourths of the night to bet
all his loose change on COCK and bull
fights and at three-carde monte, are few
attributes of the Mexican idea of high OF
luxuriant living. True, there are those
of more sober dispositions, whose lives
are more IN accord with the spirit and
nature of civilized life as passed by the
enlightened natives, but the majority ot
wealthy Mexican residents of cities are
as those who live only for to-day, letting
tomorrow take care of itself.

1t seems that when Mr.. Conkling was
at college he was tall and slender
th,and afflicted with a singular re-
serve. This reserve was constructed by
his college-mates to be hauter, and some
of them undertook to wallop it out of
him. Mr.. Conkling, however, went to
work quietly under a teacher of the art
OF self>defeAse and soon became such an
expert boxer that his tormentors were
glad to let him alone. The narrator of
this interesting reminiscence of Mr..
Conkling's youth concludes Significantly
by stating that "the Senator takes
pleasure in putting On the gloves when-
ever he can tind any one to spare with
him." Now, what is the meaning of all
this Mr.. Conkling is not the kind of
man to cultivate reputation as a pug
list without having a deep motive for
So doing. Perhaps his intention is to
warn off Gordon and other fireeating
Senators, and perhaps dread thought,
he is giving hint 10 Mr.. Hayes as to
what he may expect if he keeps en- inter.
fering with what Mr.. Conkling ca Is his
patronage" Whatever the motive is,
however, it will bear inquiring into, and
in may also be worth while for somebody
to make inquiry as to whether Mr..
Conkling really is the terrible fellow
with his fists that he IS just now making
oimself out to be.-TeIegrdph.
