There's turned-down page, as some writer
In every human life ksays,
A hladen story Of happier days,
OF peace amid the strife.
A folded leaf that the world knows not
A love-dream rudely crushed;
The sight of u face that is not forgot,
Although the voice be hushed.
The far-distant sounds OF a harp's soft strings
An echo on the air;
The hidden page may be full Of such things,
OF things that once were fair.
There's hidden page In each life, and mine
A story might unfold;
But the end was sad OF the dream divine

THE Cabinet offices do not date back
ment, but were established from Time to
time as necessities arose. The Consti-
tuition when adopted provided for the
creation of Executive Departments"
but none were actually in existence till
some months after Wasbington's in
stalIation into office as President.
There had come down from the Revolu-
ton department of "Foreign Affairs"
which, with some changes, became
our State Department by a law passed
September, 1889. Mr.. Jay, who was
at the head of the old department con-
tinued in the new, and remained Secre
tary of State through Gen. Washington's
two terms. The Treasury Department
established at the same time, was con
tinuation OF the office of "Commissionel
of Finance" but was a position of much
greater Importance. The War Office
was also Revolutionary inheritance
and these three were the only distinc
departments. There were, therefore
only three Cabinet officers through th'
greater part of Gen. Washington's ad
ministration. In 179S, the Navy Depart
ment was created, and in the same yea
the Office of Attorney-General, thougl
the latter position was not at first re
garded as a Cabinet office. These con
stituted the Executive adviser

The London papers condemn in severe
terms the law for the registration OF Dor.
ough voters on the ground that it dis.
franchises so many who are properly
entitled to vote. Many instances are
cited of electors who moved from one
precinct to another, and emitting the
precaution of having their names trans
ferred on the registration lists, were
iisfranchised. Evidently the English
are not half so enthusiastic about exer-
cIsing their rights as are Americans, OF
they would attend to the duty Of regis
tering. Or failing to have the transfer
made, plenty would be found to assume
the name and attend to the voting.
