THE statement that the President de
clares in advance that he will veto the
silver bill, or any other measure that
Congress may have before it, is not
probable. That would be regarded in
the hight OF threat and the President
would not be guilty Of any such impro-
priety, to call it by no hsrsher name.

would entitle him to the praise and
gratitude of all patriotic men OF the
Republic-and, thereby, as the rec
ognized representative and exponent
of the Republican party, add one
more bright wreath to the already
glorious crown of Republican tri-
nmphs.
1t must not be forgotten that re-
cent political contests have been
characterized with unusual bitter
ness and brought the country to the
verge of dissolution. The unity Of
the country hung together by a
thread during the pendency of the
Presidential struggle. The great
cause of irritation President Hayes
has sought to remove at the sacri-
flee. perhaps, of Republican inter-
ests But if his policy shall have
the effect to unite the country upon
a more enduring basis, and bring
around him the earnest well-wishers
OF the Union, as against the mere
politicians, the attempt at reconcile
alton will not have been in vain. If
it fails, no one will sooner see it than
President Hayes, and tho response
bility will then rest upon other than
Republican shoulders.
Give, then, the President and his
patriotic advisors, fair chance.
Wait and see how it will come out.
Having faith in the honesty, purity
and RcpnbHcomism of the Execu-
tive as well as in his disinterested
patriotism and in the honorable mo-
tive of his craftsmanship, let us
possess our souls in patience and
wish him God-speed. - Chicago Jo,r.

THE FORTY.ACRE FARM.

m thinking, wife, of neighbor Jones that
man with stalwart arm,
VINO lives in peace and plenty on a forty
acre farm,
While men are all around us. with hands
and hearts score,
who own two hundred acres and still are
wanting more.
He has pretty little farm, pretty little
house,
He mas loving wife within, as quiet as a
mouse;
His children play around the door. their
fathers life to charm,
Looking rs neat and comely as the tidy lit
tie farm.
No weeds are in the corn fields no thistIes
in the oats,
The horses show their keeping by their fine
and glossy coats;
The cows within the meadows, resting meath
the beechen shade,
Learn all the gentle manners Of the gentle
milking maid.
Within the felds--on Saturday-he leaves
40 cr2h!ed grain,
To be gathered en the morrow, for fear of
coming rain
He keeps tie Sabbath holy-l,is children
learn his ways
l. nd plenty ii lis his barn and bins after the
harvest days.
He never has lawsuit to take him to the
town,
For the very reason there are no liua FENCES
iuwa;
The bar-room in the village does not have
him for charm
L can always find my neighbo- his forty
acre farm,
His acres very few he plows them
very deep;
'Tis his own hands that turn the sod, 'ts his
own hands that reap;
He has a PLACE Gor everything, aud things
are ia their place
The sunshine smiles upon his fields, content
ment iu his face.
May we not learn IA lesson, wife, from pru-
dent neighhor Jones,
And uot-fCr what we haven't got-give up
to signs aud moans? d?
The rich amt always happy, nor free from
life's alarms,
But blest are those who live content, though
small may be their farms.
