Tie damaging reports which have SO re-

such appointments are of cn gwen TO the
most unworthy. The history of Ous ID

His piety and philanthropy were Of great
use in obtaining public confidence. The

out of the fruits of that victory
through fraud and corrupt returning

honest and patriotic people enough in
the nation to see to it that no such
disgraceful proceedings as have been
practiced by the radical leaders shall
again take place. Let the Democrats

There is considerable talk about
colonization among the negroes in
various parts of the South, its latest
outbreak being at Raleigh, N. G., and
it is predicted that great emigration
back to Africa will take place in 4
year or two. The accounts which
como from Liberia, however, are not
very encouraging, and there seems lit
tie to tempt them thither The fact
is, the South needs the negroes and
can support them better than they
could get along in Africa, and as they
come to appreciate that freedom does
not mean license or laziness, they may
be trusted to find out that they can
not do better than to stay where they
are.

The Human Face.

The countenance of every nation de-
fines the characteristics of its people.
Every human face indicates the moral
training as well as the temperament and
ruling traits of its owner, Just as much
as every human form indicates the quail
ity and amount of its physical exercise.
This is proven by the variety of human
faces everywhere visible. Those whose
lives have been given to physical labor,
unbrightened by an education of ideas,
have always stolid, stupid expression,
even while their limbs and muscles are
splendidly developed. The more savage
the people, the uglier they are in facial
development. The very features of their
faces are disfgured by violent and I'M
governed passions. People whose en-
Payments are intellectual have invari.
ably large, clear gaze, bright, out
raging expression, as if from an inward
light shining through vase. Where q
fine organization and deep sensibility
accompany the practice of intellectual
pursuits, often the features take ON a
transparent, luminous look. Persons en-
dowed with powerful sensibility, how
ever plain their features, always have
moments of absolute beauty.

SPRING HAS COME.
BY OLIVER WENDELL HOLMES.

The sunteams, lost for half year,
Slant through my pane their morning rays;
For dry northwesters cold and clear,
The east blows in its thin blue haze.
And first the snowdrop's bells are seen.
Then close against the sheltering wall
The tulips horn of dusky green,
The peony's dark unfolding ball.
The dimly chaliced crocus burns;
The long narcissus' blades appear;
The cone-beaked hyacinth returns
To light her blue-hamed chandelier.
The willows whistling lashes, wrung
BY the wild winds of the gusty March.
With sallow leaflets lightly strung,
Are swaying by the tufted larch.
The elms have ROBBED their slender spray
With full-blown flower and embryo leaf;
Wide DER the clasping arch of day
Scars like cloud their hoary chief
See the proud tulips Haunting cup,
That flames in glory for an hour
Behold it withering-then look up
How meek the forest monarch's flower!
When wake the violets Winter dies:
When sprout the elm-buds, Spring is near;
When lilacs blossom, Summer cries,
Bud, little roses Spring is here"
The windows blush with fresh bouquets
Cut with the May-dew on their lips;
The radish all its bloom displays,
Pink as Aurora's fnger-tips.
Nor less the flood of light that showers
On beauty's changed corolla shades
The walks are gay as bridal bowers
With rows Of many-petalled maids.
The scarlet shell-fsh click and clash
In the blue barrow where they slide;
The horseman, proud of streak and splash.
Creeps homeward from his mornings ride
Here comes the dealers awkward string,
With neck in rope and tail in knot
Rough colts, with careless eountry-swing,
In lazy walk or slouching trOt.
Wild hlly from the mountain side,
Doomed to the close and chatting thills,
Lend me thy long untiring stride
TO seek with thee thy Western hills.
| hear the whispering voice of Spring,
The thIuSh's thrill, the robins cry,
Like some poor bird with prisoned wing
That sits and sings and longs to fly.
