Thousands of good people never half enjoy
even enjoyable homes, because they are al
ways looking ahead, and never learn the beau
ty and value of to-day. They go through life
expecting enjoyment by and by, but without
the art to take it as it comes. They learn too
late that they passed happiness on the road

A man, In early railway days, was taken to
see the performance of locomotive. He had
never known carriages to be moved except by
animal power. Every other explanation SEEM

reflection, therefore, and seeing no possible
escape from the conclusion, he exclaimed,
confidently, to his companion, Z" There must
be horses inside !"

boy was missing
"Wheres Tom ?" he growled as he enter

"Gone fishing" said the girl.
Fishing the rascal I'll fish him when

And away the angry old fellow went for tho
brook. Coming within hailing distance of his
hopeful son; who was bending eagerly over
the stream, the father yelled
"T Tom you scoundrel, Tom |"
There was a depreciating movement of ono
hand on the part Of the boy, who did not,
however, turn his head. The still moro an
CRY and avehging parent came nearer and
bawled out
"I'll learn you to stay home and work

The old fellows passions peiceptibly cooled
at that announcement, and, luckily for the
boy, the latter just then hauled up hand

who sprang forward and helped unlock the
fish, and them

Victory perched on the boys fish-line.

If had known in the morning
How YEARLY all the day,
The words unkind
Would trouble my mind
said when went away,
/ had been more careful, darling;
Nor given you needless pain;
But we vex our own
With look and tone
We may never take back again.
For though in the quiet evening
may give you the kiss of peace,
Yet 1t might be
That never for me
The pain at the heart should cease;
How many go forth in the morning
That never come home at night
And hearts have been broken,
BY harsh words spoken.
Thatsorrow can ne'er set right
We have careful thought for the stranger,
And smiles for the sometime guest,
But oft for "our own"
The bitter tone,
Though we love o;if own the best
All lips with curse impatient
All brow, with that look of scorn
'Twere a cruel fate,
Were the night too late
To undo the work of the morn.

SAMUEL J. TILDEN.

Since the days of Martin Van Buren
 America has had no transcendent politica
 schemer, until Samuel J. Tilden came to ths
 front with all the ability of the former and
 without any of his conscientious scruples
 Tilden, on what he calls "a still huntn i:
 really dangerous, as we'll to government and society as to individual opponents. The New York Herald, of recent date, shows that he is the real father of the Potter reso. lution and half dozen other dark move ments in which he remains m the back. ground and pulls the wires which cause his subordinates to dance on the stage like so many political puppets as they really are, and yet when cornered. his ''caeek" is abso. lutely sublime, and when he sees no other means of escape he puts on bold face and has the faculty of making his retainers and apologists see that he is in the right, when justice, blind as she is represented to be. can see with her mouth that it is put up job" for which an ordinary man would be sent to the penitententiary.
 One instance, among many. will illustrate this feature of his composition: it will be found in Chicago dispatch of May 23d.
 It seems that in 1876 the Chicago and Alton Railroad wanted to reorganize, and chose Samuel J. Tilden, who was then a prominent candidate before the St. Louis Convention for President, as one of an i'm partial committee to arrange basis of re- organization. Tilden was an open aspirant Tor the Presidency, but concluded to sstill hunt" little at this critical juncture of his lifetime, and charged and received of the R R. O., $2S,0o0 for his services. The company subsequently, discovered a '.iob" put up in the organization, and sued Tiiden for his part in the fraud Now comes Til len with his bolder tactics and says in his lnswer that the s2S, 900 was not enough and he company still owes him SsO0,000 for lis services.

The Democratic Central Committeeman
 say if the office-seeking portion of the De
 mocracy of Yavapai County think that be.
 cause they are Central Committeeman they
 are going to neglect their own business to
 fix up soft places for them, while they sit
 round and talk about the duty of the Com mittee to organize the party, and have not ambition or influence enough themselves to organize chicken-coop, they are ssof- wrong.' They, as Committeeman and pa- triots, started in in goed faith for regular old-fashioned Jacksonian Democratic or ganization, without fee or hope of reward. except such as arises from a consciousness of duty performed; but to their humilia- tion and chagrin they soon found them selves betrayed and forsaken by those for whose benefit they labored, and who ex- pectod to feed upon the result of what the Committee accomplished. This was more than they bargained for. and right then and there the Committee threw up the sponge. and concluded that if the do-nothings want ed office or other fayors from the partv. they might seek them in an individual ca pacity, and upon their own doubtful merits. without the moral or active support of the Committed. or of organized party influence ar effort. Thus it will be seen that the hangers on, who depended upon getting office through party organization cn the strength of the name of Democracy, have without their host aud now learn that man may even be Democratic Cen trsl Committeeman sad yet not surrender his manhood.

bS@ Acquittal of General Kauxt.

The telegraph has brought no more vel come news to our readers for long tim, than the item of yesterday announcing tha the Courtmartial at Omaha had acquitted General Kautz, not that the result was uu- expected, or that any one feared any seriou. consequences to the General were to come out of the trial; on the contrary, all have felt from the beginning that Gen. Kautz was right and Judge-Advocate General Dunn was wrong; put for all that it was undecided officially, and when the decision came it made the Generals friends feel good.
 We have been shown a private letter from gentleman who was at Omaha du ring the trial, in which he writes that $ stran- gvr, who knew nothing of the facts. but who happened to be in Omaha during the Courtmartial. would have concluded that it was Judge-Advocate General Dunn that was being tried instead of Kautz, and that the chances were that he was guilty. Kautz was ths honored guest of officers ana citi- zens, all of whom did all in their power to make him feel that they knew he was right wsile Dunn was looked upon as a persecu- tor instead of prosecutor. At the close of the trial and before the result was an nounced Kautz was everywhere greeted with assurances that he had nothing to fear, while the Judge-Advocate General sneaked away feeling that he had been tued for something very kin to felony, and that the jury was pretty apt to bring in a verdict of guilty.
 The writer saw a gentleman from Wash ington who had talked with General Sher- man about the trial, while it was going on, and the General remarked that Dunn was bent on having a Courtmartial, and he thought he would g'-e him one, but didn't think he would ask for another very soon.
 Gen. Kautz has had many triumphs in the field, during the Rebellion. and over the | Indians in Oregon. Washington Territory, California. New Mexico and Arixoua, but ] they were triamphs ot tr -ined skill and judgement, backed by courage, over the same qualities in others. but this his last triumph of right over might and power, is tbe greatest achievement of his life. As precedent as to what man in his position, who has fhe courage to stand up in the face of arbitrary power and authority, may do in self-defence, it will be quoted and on when feats ofsplendid prowess in war are forgotten.

STRANGE LOGIC.

After commenting most lugubriously
 on the failure of his once pet scheme,
 the organization of tho machinery of
 the Democratic party in tine Territory, of
 which he claimed to be both father and
 mother, and for the strangulation of which
 before birth, brother Fay, of the Star, seeks to hold him responsible, the edItor of the Enterprise, in his issue of yesterday, uses the following language, which seems to us about the thinest argument or excuse for political failure that we ever saw in print.
 "Hsd Republicans shown any disposition to organize and run candidates on party principles. the success of Democratic organi- xation would have been assured, but as great many Republicans are in the tolls of carpet-bag officials and those who share with them the spells, the political veil will still be worn and new attempts made to blind the people of the Territory to their true interests
 Because the Republicans showed no dis position to organize, in fact never proposed to organize, therefore the Republicans are responsible for the failure of the Demo cratic attempt and failure to organize, and ought to be ashamed of themselves for thus offending the poor, innocent Democracy and preventing their organization by set ting them the bad example of doing as they pleased about it. The reason ven why the Republicans do not organize is because they s'are in the tolls of carpet-bag officials" The question t"en naturally follows, "Aa9e ioils are the Democrats in, thai they do not organize ln Surely Democrats are not in Republican tolls; they wcnld moi suffer themselves to be led astray by the enemy. Of course not, they know too much for that. But let us read again and see who it is thar has gone sneaking like a fiend into the Democratic Paradise, corrupted the Democratic Adam and Eve, the father and mother of the Enterprise and of orgaui- ration, and compassed the downfall of the 1 whole race of Democratic Cherubs in the | Territory forever. Ah here we find it in | these words
 "We are grieved to think that the seed | sown by demagogues Is still alive and bear | ing its sectional fruit.'
 Can 1t be possible that there are dema. gogues in the Democratic. party, and that the fact Aas become so patent that their organ is forced to make the humiliating. apject acknowledgement that they are such9 1t must be so; no seed sown by Republican demagogues would be allowed to spring up and grow in Democratic garden, and it follows that it must be Democratic seed. demagoguic and discordant though it be. It has been said that "a poor excuse is bet ter than none;" but had this been our case. we should have deemed it wise discression to let it pass with the single remark "busted."

 The Prescott people will now have a chance to talk up making railroad terminus for mails and passengers at Yuma, instead of Dos Palmas. If Gilmer comes over the route he must come on horseback, because high water has flooded the river bottoms, and there IS piece of nearly 1o0 yards at Laguna, where the high-water trail is not passahle for buggies. A couple of hundred dollars would fix that piece of road in ele- gant style.
