SONG OF THE HEART.
BY PHOEBE CARY.

They may tel forever of words OF bloom,
Beyond the skies and beyond the tomb
OF the sweet repose and ihe rapture there,
That are not found in the world OF care;
But not to me can the present seem b
Like a foolish tale or an idle DIRE am.
oh, know that the bowers of Heaven are
fair, .eafla t... ft. sr-.. ..fF
And know that the waters of life are there;
But do not long for their happy flow,
While there burst such fountains of bliss
below; Hf
And would not leave, for the rest above,
The faithful bosom of trusting Lowell
There are angels here; they are seen the while
In each l0ve-lit brow and each gentle smile;
There are seraph voices that meet the ear,
In the kindly tone and the word of cheer
And light, such light as they have above,
Beams on us here from the eyes of Lowell
Yet, when it cometh my time to die,
would turn from this bright world willingly I;
Though, even then, would the thoughts Of
Tinge every dream of that land of bliss;
And fam would lean on the loved for aid,
Nor walk alone through the vale and shade.
And If It's mine, till lifes changes end,
10 guard the heart of one faithful friend,
On the peaceful shore or the restless sea-
In palace home or the wilderness M
There is heaven for me in world like this.

The trial of Hughes and Mullins, the al

cult court c. H. Reed, of Chicago. appears
to aid in the prosecution, and Elmer Wash
burn one of the witnesses. The circum-
stances of the case are probably
yet fresh in the minds of the
public. Some additional alleged facts have
been given out in relation to the alleged
scheme which are worthy of notice. In
June last it is said a project was devised by
parties prominent in criminal circles in the
was to be stolen on the night of
July 4. This plan was discussed
by the parties in a house of i'll fame in
this city, and was overheard by prostitute.
This woman disclosed the facts to certain
men here, and the rumor became current at
the time to such an extent that the parties
became frightened and abandoned it tempo
rarily. In October following the conspi-
racy was revived, the informer (Swegles)
taken into the confidence of the schem-
ers, and then followed the at
tempted robbery, the discovery, and the ar
rest. There is now no longer doubt il is as
serted, that the whole project was the result
of continued and repeated interviews be-
tween some of the Oldest and most expert
e0C6u CTlullDdl lnOelcCbS Vi the u,
and that Hughes and Mullins were
the instruments directed by the
schemers to execute their plans.
John Kenealy, former partner
of Peter Mccartney, the counterfeiter, was
evidently cognizant of it. The headquar-
tiers of the fellows in this city, it is said,
was saloon managed by Vine G. Williams
and Thomas ]. Sharp, the latter now in Jail
here for counterfeiting, and whose associates
nearly a dozen in number, have
been convicted and sentenced at the
present term of the United States
court here for passing counterfeit money.
When Mullins was engaged in this monu-
ment busirsss, Kenealy WIS running his
saloon In Chicago. So far as now appears,
the officials say they have no doubt that the
heads of the principal gangs in the west were
the designers and contrivers Of the alleged
stupendous crime.

SPRINGFIELD, ILL.,, March 14.-The Hughes
and Mullins trial came to an abrupt conclu-
sion this afternoon. Judge Zane announced
that as he was a member of the Lincoln
monument association il might be objected
to his presiding at the trial. After consulta-
ton it was decided to change the venue to

Washington Special to the New York
Tribune.l r--s rnr
Senator Morton feels disposed to accept
the craftsmanship of the committee on for
eign relations, to which he is entitled upon
Mr.. Cameron's resignation. He now holds
the second place on that committee. In do
ing this he will of course be obliged 20 resign
the Craftsmanship of the committee on privi-
leges and elections. His present committee
was created under interesting circumstances
When the late Senator Sumner became
obnoxious to General Grants administra-
ton, and the senate in difference to the
presidents wishes, concluded to depose him
from the position which he had so long
held it undertook to satisfy the country by
creating a new place for the great Massachu-
sets statesman, and to give it equal dignity
with the one from which he was removed.
The senate up to that time had had a COM
mittee on elections. All questions touching
the rights of senator's to seats had previously
been referred to the committee on the Judi
ciary. The caucus then concluded to create
the committee on privileges and elections,
and to place Senator Sumner at its head.
Senator Morton was second on the COM
mittee, and the majority of the committee
was made up of senators not in political &C
cord with Mr.. Sumner The latter indig-
nantly refused to accept the place or to take
any other Craftsmanship, and Mr.. Morton of
course succeeded to it. Since its organiza-
ton this committee has been made the most.
important political committee of the senate.
All southern questions have been referred
to it, and all the great investigations, be-
ginning with that of the elections in Louis
lana and Alabama in 1872 and ending with
those of 1876, have been conducted by it.
With the settlement of the southern ques-
ton the importance of this committee will
probably pass away, and the committee on
foreign relations with an able chairman at
its head would become the most important
in the senate. Senator Morton seeing this
will probably improve the opportunity to.
secure the position which will make him
nominally the leader of the senate

Washington Dispatch. I

AS to the project of a new election, the
president stated to a friend this afternoon
that he had not even entertained the plan,
although he had heard everything that had
been advanced in favor of it, The inference
from the presidents conversation was that
new election, instead of allaying public pas
sion and settling the disturbed question,
would tend rather TO continue the present
agitation. The people of Louisiana are es-
pecially opposed TO 1t, as they say the cleo
ton would occur in the midst of the plant
ing season and would practically destroy
another business year. The president said
that he had no power in the matter, that
congress had no Jurisdiction over it, and
that he did not see that he could give the
scheme any Endorsement except il should be
cordially agreed upon by both parties of
the two states. This is not and can not be
the care
