And somethin' IN how she said it

But she laid there just rs patient

Around the room where the baby
Lies painting upon her bed.

And she moved ter little face
With answer that shows she knows him:
But scarce q visible trace
OF her wonderful iufantile beauty

Had waited at TIE door.
"Papa-kiss baby! I'se-so-tiredw

And uighr around baby is falling.

Does God need their darling in heaven
That he must carry her hcncef

AS the Cos pural solemnly knelt,
With grief such as never before
His great warm heart had felt.

ton that could be bestowed on the manage
mcnt OF the Equitable Company.
The report finds some fault with the sala-
rics of the chief officers, and they are Ger
tainly largo Yet this Same report lays down
the rule that SALARIES Of executive officers
of corporations Of the character OF the Equi-
table Life Assurance Society should of me-
ccssity DO regulated, ia great degree, by
the value Of the services rendered." while
the actuarics certify that the ratio OF COM
pcnsation in the Equitable is lower than In
any other company: So that. according to
facts, and the logic Of the report taken to-
gcthcr. the salaries ought to be raised rather
than lowered.
All this, however, Is of minor consequence.
The main point may hc wildly expressed
by saying that if every life lost in the
destruction of the Brooklyn Theatre had
been largely insured in the Equitable, the
company could have promptly paid the loss
without feeling it--so that, beyond doubt, 1t

When President TYLER went back on the

pledge TO which he had been bound citDcrby
tho platform or by the tenor Of the canvass.
4 Democrat in his ideas and antcccdcnfs,
he simply quarreled with Mr.. CLAY on tho
question Of rechaitcring the United States
Bank. In this quarrel the whole mass Of
Wings became arraycd against him, and he
had n hard time Of 1t while in office and
went out dospiscd rs traitor and with
scarcely n friend in the world.
In the Same way, President JoHNsoN's
breach with the Republican party involved
on his part no troachcry to the platform or
the professions of tie canvass which had
but recently closed JOHNSON was MONT
mated for \ice-Presilcnt because he was
southern war Democrat; and the platform
on which he had been elected laid down no
rules for the reconstrua tion of the southern
States. because at che time that platform
WAS framed h was nat supposed that the
southern Cuucderacy wud collapse SO
soon. II is true that previous - his aoco--
sion Mr.. JOHNSON had advocated the sever
est punishment for the leaders of tlc irbei-
lion. aud tlat hc changed his IDEAS upon
that matter -hortlyafter hchccoino charged
with the actual responsibilities Il power;
but the party had not officially taken
any ground upon this subject, and

rather ia harmony than in autagon-m with
( them Yet. 4 ins against tho prevailing
sentiment OF the Republican leaders aud
conducting himself with more violence than
discretion. Mr.. Johnson az once became
engaged in a deadly conflict with them
which eliminated his impeachment. over
whclmcd him with public contempt and
dctestation, and scarcely ended with mis- re-
tircmcnt from Office and his death.
While RUTHERroRp b. HAYES initiates
TYLER and JOHNSON in separating himself
from his party-although that party, not
content with defeat IN the election, has gone
the length of counting him in as Pro-ilon.
by the grussost and most reckless frauds
he goc- further than either of them by put
ting himself in fragrant opposition against
the ancient doctrines and traditions -
the party aud against the spirit and the
unanimous declarations II the canvass.
Whore TYLER and JOHNSON violated uo pru-
ciplc- aud rcpudiated ~ pledges, lac violates
every principle and rcpudates n cloud of
pledges. Thus his trcachory Is incstimn-

ought to expect will, Doubtless. Ice I'm pro-

were Republican Senators except Frost,

The precise sums paid TO those agents do

In those days the answering sentiment ~ n
large majority, even AT tho North, was :" No,
you are NiggcrY'
But the antl-slavery sentiment steadily
grew, and in process Of time no less man
than WILLIAM II. SEWARD, United states
Senator from the great state Of New York,
predicted that no man who spclt the word
negro with two rs would ever be President
Of the United States. He made this remark
with reference to srErurN 4. DOUGLAS, who
was prone to that orthography.
Finally the war broke out and, after long

President Of the United States, in the per-
Son Of FREDERICK DOUGLASS, was brand
OF social discredlt and disgrace placed upon
the whole colored race in the United States.
1t is a curious Inconsistency that while tho
President was shutting out from the honors
