know not the day nor the year;
But know that he bids me be ready
For the step that sometime must hear.
And whether on earth or in heaven,
Down here. or mid scenes of the blest,
am sure that his love will surround me,
And with Him Twill leave all the rest.

But know at the end OF the journey
Stands the mansion He went to prepare.
And whether in Joy or in sorrow,
Through valley or mountain or hill,
will walk in the light of His presence.
And His love all repining shall still.
know not what duties are waiting,
For hands that are willing and true;
And ask but strength to be faithful,
To do well what He gives me to do.
And if He should bid me stand idle,
Just waiting in weakness and pain.

And sometimes he'll make it all plain
And when his voice calls in the morning,
At noon-time perhaps, or at night
With no plea but one, Thou hast called me,

Ahont lhe Trnde Dollar.

SAN FRAsosco, March le.-Your cor.
respondent to-day interviewed a number
OF prominent bankers and business men
on the contemplated action Of the House
Committee on Coinage, Weights and
Measures TO abolish the trade dollar.
But one opinion was expressed, that the
proposed action Ia direct blow at the
interests Of the country, and especially at
the Pacific coast. II was strongly urged
that the trade dollar, after considerable
trouble attendant upon It's introduction,
has now obtained firm footing in China,
and has created demand which can not
be filled by fine silver. The exports now
average over six millions annually at
Hong Kong, Canton, Twallow, Ameny
and Foo Choo. They are received as a
legal tender and would have been so re.
ceived now at the Shanghai and Yangtee
ports but for the opposition Of the for.
eign bankers. Notwithstanding which
they will probably obtain u similar
status there within the year, which will
at once double the demand.

Important Meeting OF Directors
OF the ohio d Mississippi IsaIi.

crsoNsATI, March ia meeting ol
the Directors Of the Ohio & Mississippi
Railroad Company was held in this city
to-day, which was important and inter.
esting 10 the creditors and stockholders.
The controversy which has existed since
October between two opposing factions,
one representing o New York interest
and the other q Baltimore interest, was
brought to an amicable conclusion. The
validity Of the election Of what ia known
as the regular Board was conceded. Two
OF the old members resigned, and Messrs.
Ashley and Day, Of New York, were ap-
pointed in their stead. The report Of the
Receiver, made TO the Circnft Court Of
the United States at Indianapolis for six
months, showed the ability Of the road 10
make net earnings exceeding the entire
interest on the mortgage debt on the
o. g. NJ. Railroad proper, and which was
regarded as exceedingly favorable in
view OF the low rates prevailing during
that period. Followed, as il has been, by
a like favorable showing up to the pres
ent, has induced the belief that the time
has come for an earnest effort to restore
the credit Of the company and remove
any necessity for the continuance OF the
road in the hands Of receiver.

day somewhat informally in the honest
feryor Of the moment, characterized The
President as u fraud. The moral tc
which be would point his colleague was
that when one takes an office to which he
Is not elected, and takes 1t through cor.
rupt means, II Is better not TO trust any
thing he does. He proceeded 10 discuss
the civil service reform policy, and said
the civil service reform under the present
Executive was lame humbug, and both
sides Of the House knew 1t TO be futile
and ioolish-the fountain Of honor itseli
was poisoned. He enumerated various
appointments under the present Admin
istration as specimens Of the civil service
reform, and asked why Anderson and
Wells had been appointed to Offices when
one Of them was already sentenced
to the penitentiary, and the other was
about 10 be. The reason was that they
had 10 be rewarded for aiding TO build up
the rotten fabric Of the very throne
which dispensed the power.
When Mr.. Cox's hour expired a mo.
ton to extend his time was made aud
and passed.
Nj. Cox proceeded with his speech. BE
characterized the civil service system as
a bundle Of incongruities, based on false
pretenses. They all knew how futile and
foolish were the inconsequential and DISC
beyed orders to officials 10 abstain from
ali interference in politics. hence the ut
ter friendlessness OF the administration;
hence the rejection OF the President by
both parties as foundling over whose
political birth the bar sinister would ever
hang. II might be an exaggeration to
state that more personal appointments
to office had been made under President
Hayes than under President Grant, but
was II 30? The leading promoter Of
Hayes nomination was in the Cabinet;
his most conspicuous hustings orator was
his associate in the same relation; the
best mission to Europe had been given 10
a politician from his own State who had
manipulated the votes Of the nominating
convention; two Of the electoral lawyers
were Cabinet members; two others were
In foreign missions; former private
Secretary had the best German consulate.
Some Of these violations Of civil service
reform deGed all classification. The his.
tory OF no government furnished proof
90 overwhelming as to corrupt and hypo.
critical practices. Political debauchery
had been the rule, faithful trust and wor-
thiness the exception.
Mr.. Neal made speech in defense Of
the consular service and system.
The committee rose and the House
after which notice was given
