AT the end of the fist year comes the cot
ton wedding, explains an exchange. And
this is not the only thing that comes at the
END OF the first year. Sometimes poverty
comes; Sometimes the mother-in-law. and
sometimes twins.

~ ECHO FROM THE PAST.

How many, weary ones
,,aep from the world apart
Some secret solemn grief,
THAT wonder, of the Heart.
And though they fll-some day,
The common lot Of men
One face, one tender voice,
Ever remains with them.
Though true to uttered vows,
The ssddest thing-doth seem
For the heart to Stay fond thoughts
of, that which g might have been."
Now all the dead past
Behind me | must throw
But, Oh! my heart hold fast
The dream Of long ago.
Rocky Mountain husbandman. [volume] (Diamond City, Mont.) 1875-1943, 1878-10-31

we nave nothing of our own but our will:
all the rest is not ours. Sickness depriyes
US OF health and life; riches are taken away
from us by violence the talents of the
mind depend on the disposition of the
BODY; the only thing that is truly our own
is our will.

THE WILMINGTON CONFERENCE.

The next session Of the Wilmington Con-
ference meets at Chestertown, Nd, on to-
morrow the 12th instant. Bishop Foster,
of Boston, will preside, and has the rsputs-
tion of judging for himself as to the best
man to fill this and that place, rather than
being unduly Influenced by church delega-
items.
At the last session of the Conference,
there were upon the roll 134 members.
Two have died during the present con-
ference year, 90 that the full Conference
this year will consist of 13s members, but
the official visitors and laymen swell the
number to be entertained to 178 persons.
The people of Cbestertown, without re-
gard 10 sect are preparing to receive the
Conference to their homes, and they will all
be entertained with true and hearty Eastern
Shore hospitality. 49,. ..D-,a

LET the Democracy cast around for
suitable candidates for Senator and Repre-
sentatives to Dover. The working men
from what we hear are intent upon sending
one of themselves 10 the Legislature.
Howard Simpson, Of Third street, fills that
bill if the people are content. The Senator
should be man of fair culture, and large
intelligence as many of our laws want
amendment sadly. The. people, by the
new rules are sovereign, as they directly
vote for both Senator and Representative
to Dover, and few big wigs at New Castle
no longer make up State, little caring
what the people thought. The New Castle
delegation to Dover will hereafter be ex'
ponents of the popular will.

BREAKERS AHEAD.

The railroad corporations are looking
about for a candidate for Governor as we'll
as we'll as for members of the Legislature.
The last named are most important to,
them at present.-News and Advocate.
There is no doubt that the Philadelphia
Wilmington & Baltimore R. r. aspires to
rule the State of Delaware and oppress her
agriculturists, as the Pennsylvania r. R.
dominates 10 the Keystone State The
railroad has, in the last Legislature more
than one of its dependents, and may be
anxious to incr ease the number of its
creatures at Dover. Monopolies, such as
the corporation mentioned is standing
menace to free institutions, and a safe rule
for the guidance Of our people to nominate
no man for the Legislature who has any
connection with the railroad. railroad
has for its counsel Senator Bayard, which
is about as much of the political power ot
Delaware, as ought to have legal affillia-
ton with "my Boston Stockholders"

THE SHORT HAIRS AFTER PAT.
........--.. -TERSON.

A workingman in the Republican thus
goes for Mr.. Patterson, who is the combs
nation candidate for Mayor.
II have not one word to say against Mr.
Patterson; l have known him for many
years; he is good lawyer, with alucrAtive
practice, and large owner of Real Estate
in this city and county, and he is a first
class citizen. But who has ever seen Mr.
Patterson as delegate to either State or
County Convention Who has ever seen
Mr.. Patterson st a Ward Meeting Of the
party or at any primary meeting; who has
ever seen him taking any part in seeing
that our votes are assessed? ? Who has ever
heard even of Mr.. Patterson looking after
the voters in the party to see if they had
their tax receipts prepared to vote on the
day of the election
Further on the hard listed writer, says
neither Frame, nor Gallagher, will back
down and out for Mr.. Patterson. Score
one, for the lhoroughbreds.

z WARRINGTON, D. G., March 10, 1878. 10
Asa pardon cannot be granted in Louisi~
ana without the consent of the State Senate,
that body is to be called together in special
session to ratify the act of Governor Nichslls
in patdoning Anderson, of the Returning
Board. This is the second extra session of
legislative body manipulated by Mr..
Hayes. Governor Nichols should think
twice before taking this step. An uncon>
ditional pardon to Anderson and amnesty to
Wells will remove any Inducements they
now have, to tell the truth about Louisiana
affairs. ''
The House committees are fairly at work
in their numerous and important investiga-
tions, and some Of the members say they
haye already made discoveries Of great
importance. Details are promised at an
early day. ,
Bayard Taylor, our new minister to Ger
many, is very cordially received during his
short stay here. The appointment was in
every way an excellent one, and the univer-
sal satisfaction it gives will perhaps induce
Mr.. Hayes to give us more of the same
kind. ta,...
The work Of Congress is really in q more
advanced state than appears from the pub

well up with the appropriation bills. Ex-
perienced members think an Adjournment
may be reached by the first of July.
| The following is direct from Tom Scott
aud may be taken as bis understanding o.
what Congress is asked to do for the Texat
Pacifc:--"It is that the Government shal
guarantee the payment of interest at ths
rate of S per cent. on the Company's bonds
not to exceed for all purposes, $Ss, 500 ,0Ot
for the construction and equipment Of th'
m ain line from Fort Worth to the Pscif'
ocean. OF this amount only $3l, ,79O, ,O0'
can be used for purposes Of construction
and equipment, the balance. at the rate o
81, 900 per mile to remain In the Unitet
States Treasury as one of the projections o

terest. %
The report Of the Senate Judiciary Com
mittee appears conclusive as to the right O
Congress. to force the Pacific railroads t.

A committee of the chief clerks Of the
various divisions Of the ~posto6ice depart
ment has been for sometime past preparing
a bill to be submitted to congress, reo'gan-
izing that department. The bill is finished
and now in the hands Of the postmaster
general for his supervision and approval.
While it contemplates no change in the
number of assistants or heads of divisions.
it does change salaries, making them CO.
equal with the treasury off ials, where the
same amount of duty is performed. The
titles of the chiefs are also changed and the
salaries in general, from the postmaster
general down, are made different. 1t rec
ommends also that the Law in relation to the
salaries of the cabinet officials, giving each
$4,000, be amended and that $4,000 be
substituted therefor. 1t is expected that the
bill will be acted upon at an early date by
congress and take effect from the lst Of July
next.
