Mr.. Randolph Tucker, of Virgin.
ia, is credited with the remark that
the policy which MIR. Hayes de.
cIares and which he is grudgingly
executing, like a sullen boy creep.
ing unwiIlingly to school under
co%mpulsion, is simply the policy Of
the Democratic party which Presi-
dent Hayes has been forced to a.
dept, because the majority OF the
American people demand 1t. The
majority of the American people
elected Mr.. Tilden to the Prosiden.
cy, because they meant this policy
TO be adopted. Mr.. Hayes has been
thimblcrIgged into Mr.. Tilden's
place, but he has sense enough To
know that he will not be permitted
to carry out any policy save that
which Mr.. Tilden was elected to
represent and execute.

For lost ones now wear diNdcms
Where JOY shall have no bounds,
Then check the rising sigh and tear,
And stop the hearts sad cry;

From their bright home on high?

The grief the heart has borne,
Each pulse may seem the funeral knell
