SIR RICHARD BIRNIE.-Iu a collection of
English songs, dated 1926, find one called
"Old and New Times" full of London local
illusions, in which occurs this stanza:
"When was young, humanity was never talked about
But In these days OF feeling, IL makes pretty rout
You must not whip your horse at all, not even II he
Nor knock your donkoys heads about so says Sir
Richard Birno."
Thus there seems to have been a proto.
type Of Mr.. Bergh in Lyndon, more than
half century ago, and he so active in his
efforts as to be put into tho popular songs
If the name is unknown to you in connection
with the remoter history OF the benevolent
movement which your paper advocates, per-
haps you will bring it before your readers
to elicit information Of Sir Richard Birnie's
attempts IN behalf Of the draught animals.
Their treatment in England fifty years ago
must have been worse than il is in this
couatry now.
The name appears in one of the biograph-
ical dictionaries, as that of very efficient
magistrate in London from 1921 EDWARDS
knighted by George w; but nothing is
said to identify him with your cause. G.
Dalton.

GOING COMET

by Z. l.. II.
"Not on such night, dense and dark,
Not on such sea Of angry foam
To launch frail, light, tiny bark;
Torn, torn from its mooring-home
Oh, Power unseen, withdraw that wand
And treasure up the heavy tears
Can suppliant prayer not stay thy hand
Recall our woe, revert our ioarsp
'No, mamma, no, that cannot be.
But mamma see The glitterins wand
Is bright and high above tho sea-
And pointing to happy land.
"Come, mamma, join glad new song
Now can ride the white sea foam,
And you'll come soon, ere long, ere long
Going, mamma-there, too, Is home"
The sea breaks nadly on the shore,
The powders shin again their bed,
The lowering clouds in torrents pour,
And the little bark Is seen no moro.

David DudIey Field

This eminent lawyer, after having voted for
Mr.. Hayes for President, has abandoned his
party under peculiar circumstances and fol-
lowed the lead of his distinguished brother,
Mr.. Justice Field, of the Supreme Court of
the United States, over to the ranks of the
Democracy. But his action does not appear to
be so entirely disinterested and upon principle
as was the course of the Associate Justice
when he separated from the Republican party
on grounds of disagreement touching ques-
ti1ns of reconstruction and government.
To impartial minds the failure to elect the
candidate of his choice, to his satisfaction, by
the suffrages of his party, does not seem q
valid reason why the voter should go over to
the opposition; nor is the decision of his psrty,
against bis private impressions that its candi-
date is elected, an any more sufficient reason
for leaving the party, unless the bolter Is am
bilious to be regarded as an egotist, holding
his personal judgment as higher and wiser
than the entire balance of party comprising
multitudes of people, many thousands of
whom are also distinguished for knowledge
and wisdom. But generally, we fear, in this
evil world the tender of nomination to Con-
gress by q party having control of the district
is very moving cause to the sensibilities of
one belonging to a party hopelessly in the
minority, and who finds within him latent
desire to enter this arena of action.
We remember to have heard David Dudley
Field pronely referred to as one "now and
always a private citizen, /" the intimation being
that he was man who conceived his profess
sional position in the Empire City to be su-
perior to any which could be conferred by

and hold . few cities, perhaps q few States,
such as New Jersey, Indiana and Connecticut.
In their mobocracy they might tax the Fed
eral Government to great exertion, and per-

They might set the seal of sorrow and make
the mark of devastation on many now pros
porous communities, and yet, with all these
ominous things, the Southern men are con-
viz ced that the patriot defenders of the con-
stitutionally- established Government would
triumph in the end by crushing out the Bour-
bon insurreetionists and securing permanent
peace. Where, then, would be the Southern
Democrats During the strife they would have
been busy carrying out precautionary meas

and when the revolution had been suppressed

Democrats were for war. We did not indsrse
your folly, we certainly will not partake of
your ruin. Excuse us now from any further
association with your affairs. You have been
of no benefit to US in the past, we do not pro-
pose to carry you with your new follies in the
future. We are now a contented people, homo
geneous in our interests, and are fully prepared
to undo all that you forced us to do during the
other civil contest. We propose hereafter to
stand by the Constitutional Government of
the United States, and, as Rutherford B.
Hayes is now at the head of that Government,
we most cheertully submit to his administra-
ton, and will aid him in building up the waste
pisces in our midst. Hereafter, Messrs. Bour-
bon Mortimer, you must paddle your own
canoe"

what Southern Men VIII Say to
Northern BOurbOns.

For ten years Southern men have been care
fully studying their Northern allies. The
treachery Of this Northern faction during the
war opened their eyes to the fact that they
were Joined to riff raft element in politics
which neither brought them honor nor benefit.
At last they have decided to snnul this disas-
trous alliance and let the copperhead faction
fight their battles out in opposition to the will
of the people constitutionally expressed at the
ballot-box. There is general and open speer-
ing in the South as to the purposes of North
ern Democrats. They tsunt them with the
lack Of having earnestness and resolution re-
quisite for am revolutionary action against
the constituted authorities. They laugh at
the idea Of Northern Democrats revolving, or
even talking Of war when the contest would
be one against Government acknowledged
and backed by the Senate, the judiciary, the
army and navy, the arsenals and vast supplies
Of arms and munitions Of war, the State Legs
