The Law and the Responsibility

There is but one constitutional way Of set
Element of the Presidential election, namely
to make official declaration OF the election as
it has been determined by the votes Of the
Electors in the State Electoral Colleges
There is no other legal way possible. The
talk that the two Houses of Congress may
agree upon some compromise other than
this, is talk of compromising away the
Constitution, and of making an illegal cleo
ton. Any other election would not only be
illegal, but it would st a precedent which
would abolish legal elections of President,
and would make every succeeding one a
danger of anarchy and civil war.
And there is but one cause of the general
apprehension which is throwing all business
and all sorts OF enterprise into suspense and
that is the attempt Of desperate partisans,
defeated in the pursuit ofsofliee, to incite
demonstrations Of the Ignorant, idle and
lawless. for the purpose Of obstructing the
declaration of the election-an attempt to
raise threat of a rebellion against the legal
election. The law is clear. No Democrat
can deny the duty of declaring the election
OF Hayes, without repudiating all that his
party has always held as law. The only
thing that is now causing the stagnation of
trade. is the agitation Of political adventur-
ers to make an appearance of threatened
rising against the law. The expression which
substantial citizens should give, whose bust
ness is being destroyed by this incendiary
course, should be against those who are try
ing to nci.e the threat Of resistance to law

Marry, or hot marry? That is the question,
Whether tbs nobler in the mind to suffer
me sulen silence OF these cobweb 70 ms,
Or seek in festive halls some cheerful dame,
And by uniting end it. To live alone
NO more! And by marrying say we end
Ine heartache and those throes and make-shift
Bachelors are heirs to. IT'S consummation
Devoutly to be wished.
10 marry-to live in peace
Perchance in war-ay. there's the rub.
For in the marriage state what ills may come
When we have shutied off our liberty,
Must give us pause. There's the respect
That makes us dread the bond OF wedding,
For who could bear the noise OF scoldng wives,
The fits OF Spleen the extravaganza OF dress,
The thirst for plays, for concerts, and for balls
The lnsolence of servants, and the spurns
mat patient husbands from their consorts lake
When he himself might his quietns gain
BY living single a.?
Who would wish to bear
The jeering name of bachelor,
But the dread of something after marriage
(Ah that vast expenditure of income
The tongue can scarcely telD puzzles the Will
AND makes US rather choose the single life
Than go to jail for debts we know not of,
Economy thus makes bachelors still,
And thus our melancholy resolution
Is still increased upon more various thought

My darling my darling. the midnight is here
To stihe and tempt me with longing and fear
hear through the darkness thy sweet little voice
Like birds in their nests that in slnmber rejoice
My darling. my darling long night has come,
am straying alone in the ashes of home;
ITS echoes OF love and their answers Ct peace
All voices that blessed me in solitude cease
I gave them my love as our Father gives air;
l gave them my life without stint or compare;
They used me and left to die by the way:
My darling! my love, thou vert kinder than they.
From thee in thy BLOSSOM the sweetness OF dawn,
The perfume and faith of thy life are not gone
Thou lowest for loves sake, not duty, nor gain:
Life hath not defiled thee, nor Sorrow, nor pain.
An wouldjEat together in some quiet grave,
Or deep in the oceans long sorrowing wave,
my tiny arms round Inc, thy head on my breast,
We TWO lay forever in passoniess rest
In the night and the daytime long for thy face !;
dream that thou liest at rest in thy place;
waken and call thee with pitiful prayer,
My darling my darling why art til on not there?
oh God when Thou judgest the false and the
true
When the madness and passion of living are
through
ask of thee only to give me above
FMS baby, who only hath answered my love.

The officer hurried down there and found
wild, haggard-looking young man, pound

Police Station gave the name of Adolphus
Parker. AS the Police Court was in session
the prisoner was at once escorted before JUS

it, and went away a melancholy picture of
utter hopelessness and despair. He had

Horseback Riding.

Where we have so many horses, and for a
considerable part of the year such poor roads,
it seems remarkable that we do not ride
more. Our people prefer to drag through
the mud and over rough roads in buggies or
phaetons. Even of country bred boys and
girls, more than half can not sit on a horse
with grace, comfort or safety, and as to city
bred youths, some are sent to riding-school
and make fair riders, but never practice it,
while few-not one in hundred of .hese
enjoy gal!op through the park before
breakfast or in the afternoon once in six
months. Can it be that the general senti-
ment of the community, which is opposed to
a horse going in an other gait than trot or
walk, has had the effect to cause us to fore
go riding? The increase of lung diseases,
weakness of the spine, catarrh, ETC., among
men OF sedentary pursuits, may perhaps in
a measure be accounted for by the giving up
of this exercise.
The fact that driving-horse is an
easy, pleasant, we'll trained saddlc-Lorse,
unless, indeed, he be only used us q saddle
nag, does not add penny to his market val
ue, indicates how little we ride. IIorse-deal-
ers never know whether or not 4 horse is an
easy gaited one urder saddle, and if he will
carry man on his back without making q
disturbance. or trying to throw him off, he
is recommended as ''broken to saddle,'' at
least in the New York market. -American

BISHOP GIBBONS. Baltimore Sun
has the following in relation to Bishop Glib
bOns:
'sArchbishop Bayley, of Baltimore, is still
in Newark, N. j., and had not improved in
health at last advices. He may go either to
Europe or Florida. In his absence Bishops
Becker and Gibbons officiate when necessa-
ry. The matter of a coadjutor in the arch
bishopic Of Baltimore is still discussed. 1t
was offered to Rev. Bernard McManus, of
ST. Johns, Eager and Valley streets, but he
firmly declined. The name of Bishop Glib
bons, of Richmond, was sent to Rome for
the coadjutorship, with the right Of success
sion; and there are reasons to surmise that
DR.. Bayley's contemplated trip to Europe
when his health permits is in this connec-
ton. Bishop Gibbons is one of the young
est men in the United States wearing the
mitre. Bishop CORR gan, also young and
brilliant prelatc, the successor of DR.. Bayley
at Newark, and q strong friend OF Bishop
Gibbons went to Rome few weeks ago.

TILDEN AS He Is.-The Washington cor
respondent of the Cincinnati Gazette has
this to say about what democrats think of
the great reformer:
Several Democrats, who went from Con-
gress to make Tllden's acquaintance during
the recess, do not express very tlattering
opinions about him. They found him full
of cunning plans for exciting the people, his
hope being that by some of the means em-
ployed he might be able to shake some Re
publicans from their support of Hayes, be-
fore the counting Of votes takes place. They
found him with no clear ideas of party poll
cy, and some of them went SO far as to eN-
press the belief that ifinaugurated, he would
effectually destroy his party during the first
year of his term.

Postmaster James, Of New York. took a
short but very effectual means of showing
the folly OF Mr.. IIewitt's charge that letters
passing through the postotiice had been
opeued. The men who collect letters from
the lamp-posts were instructed to empty
their bags right OH the committee table. OF
these letters, fresh from the lands OF the
writers, and beyond the possibility OF tam
pering, fully one third showed the same pc
cuiarities in sealing that led Mr. Hewitt to
believe that his correspondence was SYSTEM
atjcally read in the Postoffice.

the Postmaster should be secured, and on
