P O E T R Y
WOMEN AND WINE,
BY MARY KYLE DALLAS.

. Pop went the gay cork flying,
Sparkled the gay champagne,
BY the light of day that was dying,
He filed up.their goblets again.
Let the last toast be woman.
Woman, dear woman" said he,
Empty your glass, my darling,
When you drink to your sex with me-
But she caught his strong brown fingers,
And held them tight as in fear,
And through the faltering twilight
Her fond voice fell on his ear
Nay ere you drink, implore you,
By all that you hold divine,
Pledge a woman in tear drops,
Rather by far than in wine,''
BY the woes of the drunkard's mother,
By the children that beg for bread,
By the face of her whose beloved one
Looks on the wine hen tits red.
By the kisses changed to curses,
BY the tears more bitter than brine,
By many a fond heart broken,
Pledge no woman in wine.
What as wine brought to woman?
Nothing but tears and pain,
1t has torn from her heart her lover,
And proven her prayers in vain;
And,her household gods all scattered
Lie tangled up in the vine;
oh prithee.pledge now oman
In the curse of so many-wine.

WASHINGTON, March I6.-The Postoffice

tablishment of a " fast wagon service " to
carry mail between Philadelphia and Lam

points ON the Baltimore Central Railroad
between Lamokin, Pa, and Port Deposit,
Md. This extraordinary conveyance of

orlered by Second Assistant Postmaster
General Brady in preference to yielding to

for special compensation for service over
this portion of the road, in addition to the
amount now paid by the department for
the general service over the whole of the
direct HIS tepsos.. apiiladelphia and Balti-

claim for LAP service is not large, bat
General Brady is strongly disinclined to
yield the point in controversy, as the un-

thousand dollars in the aggregate of similar
cases throughout the whole country.
A IlATH Is MIGHTIER THAN A SWORD
Speculation has exhausted itself in the at
tempt to discover how the Earl Of Bea-
constIsld, in his seventy y-secund year,
mana red for SO long time to hold upright
aud siteady the massive sword OF State
which he bore at the opening OF Parlia-
ment. A younger man might have been
paldoned for trembling. But Lord Bea-
conslield managed to keep il straight be
tween his eyes. The truth is that-to mis-
quote Longfellow

try, be would have struck with lath. The
sword was only dummy.

Threatened Disturbance in Alx,ers.


Mr.. Thomas H. Jones, citizen, who has
volunteered his services to act as captain
Gd interim of the Nichols police force in
Algiers, informs us that the negroes over
the river threaten to resist the men with the
white badges by force of arms. Some of
them even talk of using shOtguns in case
any of the so-called "citizen police" attempt
to arrest them.
Without conceding to acting Captain
Jones' police any de jWre authority to exer-
else the ordinary functions of metropoli-
taus, there can be no doubt they possess to
some extent the authority Of superior force,
and that, whatever Republicans may think
of it, their acts have the color of law. 1t
is wrong for citizens, colOred as we'll as
white, to resist those who come even in the
name of the law. Therefore, the colored
people, whatever may be their grievances,
ought to quietly submit to that which they
cannot prevent without resort to personal
violence. We hope in good time all wrongs
will be set right without the necessity Of
street broils between rival factions which
may lead to bloodshed. 1t is better to suf-
fer little inconvenience for time than to
take such course as will involve riots in
the streets

STATE NEWS.

From the Republican, January 8;
The House congressional committee TN
ished their labor here last Friday, and left
Saturday for Mansfield, Louisiana. The
White League Democracy are welcome to
all the testimony they got here in their IA
yor by the weakened and milk and water
Republicans, and also the colored men who
testified before that committee. We are
fully satisfied and so was the Republican
member of that committee, that they could
not do otherwise and live in ward five,
for if they had testified the truth in
reference to their vote in that ward they
would have been driven from their homes,
and, perhaps, murdered. No Republican
could go before that committee and testify
to the truth and remain here in peace.
The colored men from ward five who
testified that they voted the Demo-
cratic ticket of their own free will knew
that they did not do any such thing, for we
had one or two to tell us after the election,
and not only cOlored men but white men,
too, that they wanted to vote the Repub-
liean ticket but could not vote it and live
there. The eshmOny of one of the Demo
cratic witnesses from ward five goes to
show that there must hRvs been intimida-
ton in that ward on the part of the Demo
Gratis toward the oolored men, or that no
colored man could live in ward five unless
he was q Democrat, or voted the Demo
cratic ticket. If not why did that cOlored
man have to get Q certificate that he had
voted the Democratic ticket in ward twelve
to go back to ward fvef 1t was to keep
the poor, helpless creature from being foully
dealt with. We are satisfied that the testi
mony given in reference to the election in
ward I've can be sustained by the Repub
lieans, and so you can make all you car
out of the testimony given by your OWL
marty.

The School Funds.

Superintendent Brown has made the
usual apportionment of school funds, and
is ready to issue certificate in favor of
the public schools of New Orleans for the
amount due-$2O,lsl 60. But it appears
the money is locked up in the hands of the
Fiscal Agent by an Injunction obtained at
the instance of some Democratic pretended
official, and can not be applied to the pay
ment of the teachers. Those of that hard
working and poorly paid GLASSES who can
neither draw their money for services rem
dered, nor realize anything on their certif-
Gates, may thank the oficious Intermediates
for the deprivation. They know they have
earned the money. Nobody else can show
the slightest claim to a cent of it. And yet,
in consequence of this Democratic injunO-
ton, not dollar of the pubic money can
be paid out on the order of the State Treas
urer for any purpose. This is emphatically
making war on helpless women.

General William L. McMillen received
Yesterday at the hands of Governor Pack
ard a commission as Paymaster General on

narily, perhaps, this might be considered a
mere compliment or barren honor; but in
this case it possessed greater significance.
The detaChments of State militia on duty

with a good deal of patience.

Florida seems to have thriven finely
during the administration of Governor
Stearas, albeit his enemies have denounced
him in unmeasured terms. The financial
condition of the State has materially inn
proved. In 1868 there WAS 81 SO In the
treasury; nov Governor Stearns, according
to the Jacksonville Union. turns over to
Governor Drew about Sl45, coo in cash. In
1868 there was not enough money In the
State treasury to buy candles for school
houses; now there are common schools es-
tsblished in nearly every county, and
$4,000 in caah on depesft in the State
treasury to the credit of the school fund.
Governor Stearns needs no better tssti-
m0nial than the prosperous condition of the
commonwealth from whose chief o1iee be
has just retired. II remains 10 be seen
whether these varioua interests, educational
and financial, win show tbs same eucourag.
