SYMPATHY.

Oh. mQthcTs, whose children are sleeping.
Thank God by their pillows tonight.
And pray for the mothers now weeping
Ger the pillows so smooth and so white;
Where bright little heads OF have lain,
And soft little checks have been pressed;
Oh. mothers. who know not this pain,
Take courage to bear all the rest.
For the sonlber-wtiiged angel IS going
With pitiless flight DER tile land,
And we wake in the morn, never knowing
what he ere the night may demand.
Yes, tonight, while oar darlfngs are sleep
fslg
There's many n soft little bed
Whose pillows are moistened with weeping
For the loss of one dear little head.
There are hearts OH whose inncrmost altar
There is nothing but ashes Tonight,
There are voices whose tones sadly falter,
And dim eyes that shrink from the light.
Oh. mothers whose children are sleeping,
As ye bend to caress the fair heads,
Pray, pray for the mothers now weeping
Ger pitiful, smooth little beds.

Very few are aware of the intimate
connection between politics and business.
We have learned the lessons of the effect
of war on business, and the last few
months have told US of the effect of pol
itics on business. AS the Thermometer
indicates the condition of the weather,
so the daily gold market indicates the
confidence of our own citizens in our own
government. AS illustration, during the
war rebel success caused gold to rise, and
our success under the old flag caused
gold to go down, as indicating the final
result. There was just as much money
one day as another, so the scarcity or the
righteousness of it could not effect such
changes. If our citizens had had perfect
confidence all along that the greenbacks
would be redeemed or paid by the gov
eminent, it never would have taken $3.50
in paper to buy $1.00 in gold. And as
gold is the worlds basis of value, of
course the prices of other commodities
would be effected by it. 1t is now a GER
tainty that all the governmental obliga-
tions will be met, as much as those of
any government, and the result is that
paper and gold have come near together,
and little wise action by our national
legislature upon the Presidents message,
relating to specie payments will virtually
end all speculation in gold which has
brought wealth to few and ruin to many.

For the Essex Herald.

tOr Tie Essex Herald.
The following question was submitted
TO the State Normal School I'm Vermont
on-examinatlon day, to be answered by
the students in 1876; "Why did the Bat
tie of PlattSburg have a peculiar interest
for VernonterST' This was 4 very per-
tinent question to be propounded to the
citizens of Vermont, and # would be so
to the citizens of any of the United
States. When this famous battle was
fought it was critical period in the his
tory of our country; more than sixty-two
years have elapsed since that eyentful
day, and the people who can recollect it
are not as plenty as they once were. The
war OF 1912 had continued more than two
years when this event occurred, on the
18th of September, 1914; our land forces
had been very successful, the disasters
and defeats had been more numerous than
the victories, Canada was not yet sub
dued, for the want of competent men in
command; our successes had been few; it
is true that some of our generals had
shown great ability-such as Brown and
Scott, and several others; our regular
army was not sufficiently numerous to
meet their assailants at all points; the
militia had to be called on in case of an
emergency, they sometimes performed
their duties well, and yet were not always
reliable.
There had been an army stationed at
Plattsburg, but it was found necessary to
order the greater part of it with its COM
mander to the defence of Sackett's Har-
Dor. The war in Europe had ended pre-
vious to this; the Great Napoleon had
been dethroned and banished to the is
land of Elba; the victorious troops who
had fought under wellington in the Span
ish peninsula were now shipped to Can
ada to fight the United States, and here
at Plattsburg seemed to the British to be
the place for an attack. The Governor.
General of Canada led an army of IA, 00C
men to the above named place. The
British had built fleet on Lake Cham
plain, and so also had the United States
The feet oe the British, which was supe
rior to that of the American both in size
of ships and number of guns, sailed NJ
the lake to Plattsburg when the LAND
ferceS marched there; Commodore Nc
Donough, on the morning of the 18th
| sailed ont of the harhOr of PlattSburp t(
meet the enemy; the battle commenced
on the land aud on the water at the same
time; in two hours and twenty minutes
the British fleet surrendered; the lane
forces repulsed-were panic stricken ant
Immediately commenced a retreat, leav
ing large amount of military stores be
sides losing heavily in killed, wounded
and desertion, estimated at $500 in all
The consequences to our country result
ing from this battle have not been over
estimated. The immediate consequences
were relief from formidable invasion
but this was not ALL it put new spiri
into our countrymen; it inspired ther
with confidence in their abb lily to repe
their invaders, and more than all this en-
abled our ENJOYS, who had long been en-
deavoring to negotiate peace, to de
mand and obtain such conditions as wer
honorable, and thus lasting peace wa
concluded between the contending par
ties.

PROGRESS OF THE COUNT

On Thursday the Commission heard
arguments on the question of the ell
igibility of Frederick c. Humphreys,
one of the Republican electors, who,
it was claimed, held the office of U. S.
Shipping Commissioner at the time of
his election,at the conclusion of which
it again went into executive session and
on Friday announced its. final action in
the Florida case. Justices Bradley
and Miller and Senator Edmunds.
who were selected as a committee to
draft the report, submitted the conclu.
sions of the same in substance, and
they were agreed to as follows;
First.-The commission, exercising the
powers of both houses under the law, g an6
having examined all the certificates anC
papers referred to them, find that they
have no authority to hear evidence alum
di, or in other words, to hear evidence
outside of the certificate of the Governor
of the State of Florida, founded upon the
determination of the Canvassing BoarC
of the State as to its vote.
Second The commission could no
consider as evidence any act of the Legis
lature or courts in determining whom th,
State had appointed as electors after tn,
day the said electors gave their votes.
Third.--In regard to the said ineligibii
ty of i. c. Humphreys there was no
yNcoof fhat ba ba11 rGi I,
9TH Of November.
On Saturday the two houses met il
convention to hear the report of tn
Electoral Commission, and at once sep
arated to take action upon the questio
of sustaining the report. The Senat
by party vote agreed to the report
and the house took recess until Mon
day.
The House on Monday, by part
vote, decided not to sustain the actio
of the Commission. When the tw
houses again met in convention tn
counting of the votes proceeded with
out objection until Louisiana wa
reached. the returns Of which were re
ferred to the Joint Commission. N
