NEW YEAH MORNING.
BY W. C. CRoFFUT.


" Co.. He spake unto the Angel and His face was
And his voice was sweet as mu ic breathed upon a
summer night;

man by love is swayed;
If the wolf of Hatred longer doth modest or make
If the world breeds yet the Ignorance that wove my
thorry crewn;
down.
Bowed before the Sacred Presence, the fair mes
senger Withdrew,
Floated from the radiant ramparts where celestial
breezes b ew,
Glided through the azure meadows where the starry
Dropped adown the shining spaces with the sun
Till the warm earth around him and he heard a
He was in the Balkan passes, and the time was New
Year morn.
AS he turns bis cheek is smtten with the cannon's
fiery breath,
And the blind abysses plunge the cavalry of
Death.
On the snowy slopes of Plevna are the Russian bat
teries wheeled,
And eorpses lie in CHASTITY heaps upon the reeking
field;
Here sweeps the Lovatz lancers-like a flash they
disappear
Each rider yeIls and lifts aof head upon his spearI
New Year morning With the wounded where the
angry ranks divide
Ia the old Berserker madness, writhing on the
Peasant-brOthers, locked together where the river
And with faces fierce with passion, die with curses
Oh their lips
New Year morning in the village where the mad in
vaders slay
Mothers singing at their spinning, babies pratling
at their play.
New Year morning in the Northland, where the
Russian soldiers wife
Looks through tears, with huttering pulses, the
bulletins OF strife.
New Year morning in the Southland, where the
Turkish maidens wait
For the sweethearts who shall never come TO greet
them at the gate.
n w Year morning by the campfire of toe Cossack
cavalcade,
Where the sad-eyed Sister writes to Nothern wife
AID Southern maid.
New Year morning in the churches, where the
priests annointed pray
That Lord will lead the combat and the hosts of
Islam saY.
Now Year morning in the Mosque, where the Mollah
cries to God
To baptize the sunny valleys with the Christians
hatred blood.
New Year morning in the battle, where, along the
fTenZied line,
Flags unfurled to Christ and Mahomet, with the
Cross and Crescent shine
Then tho Angel. eyes of pity and face with terror
white,
With wall of fhame and SORROW, vanished on his
upward flight
And he cried, The blood of brothers mingles with
the bitter tears
That rusn hellward like deluge in the torrent of
the years.
Fools! Oh fools the friends of Hatred strange still

And Love is still outcast in the temple OF the

The West End Water Question.
Editors of the Vindicator:

Editors Of the Vindicator:
l observe from two short editorials in
your paper of 23d and Both, that censure is
cast upon the City Council for extending
water privileges to people outside of the
corporation, upon the idea that by hold
ing the water the people outside will be in
duced to come in, and the city will thereby
become enlarged and enriched. If it could
be demonstrated THAT 1t would be to the
mutual benefit of the people outside and
in, to enlarge the limits of the cooperation,
then we say extend the limits. 1 appre-
bend however, that if upon extension of
the limits a. Sufficient amount OF improve
ment were made to be of substantial bene-
fit to the people outside, it would cost the
city more than it would come to. On the
other hand to take people in and tax them
without receiving substantial benefit would
be oppressive in the extreme. So | take it
the Council are acting wisely in not seek
ing an extension of the limits. The city
having large supply of water, SO large
that the authorities are compelled to cut
off the Buttermilk Spring, now 1 think
they are acting wisely if they can utilize
that water. Suppose they extend the priv
ilege to one hundred families, the expense
OF getting the water from the pipe paid by
those applying and the city charge for the
use five dollars annually to each family,
this would amount to $500, veyy nice lit
tie sum. You say twenty-five privileges
have been granted. 1 would say to the
authorities l would 60 on to the extent of
the capacity Of the Butter milk Spring /;
this privilege is not, presume, given away.
must therefore differ with you Mr..
Editors and give the city authorities credit
for wisdom BEVERLY.

The Yellow Fever Sufferers.
Editors Vindicator:

Editors Vandicat0r:
From those very sections in the South
which are now being ravaged by that
dread disease, yellow fever, thousands Of
dollars are sent annually to be expended
by pupils of the different schools in our
midst. AS yet 1 have not heard of single
dollar being sent from here to the relief of
these unfortunate people. Will our city
and her citizens turn deaf ear to those
earnest appeals for help, which reach us
hourly from the towns infected? Is it not
time our people were awakening to sense
of the Importance of taking some steps
towards the relief of those people, whose
patronage has for years done so much to-
wards building up OUR town? The mer-
chants, above all others it seems to me,
should need no reminder as to what their
duty is. In fact, it is an object in which
The generosity of our whole people could be
easily exercised. 1t would be forever
a blot upon the fair name of our city to be
60 ute when such agonizing cries for succor
ar,s borne to our ears. Let there be meet
ing of our citizens at once.

Water to Non Residents.
Editors indicator.

Editors TSqdacGtOT.
In the local column of your last issue
there appeared an article criticising what
the writer is pleased to style piece of
s'indiscreet legislation of the City Coun-
Gil of Staunton in allowing non-residents
to Use city water at the same water rents
charged citizens. Your reporter thinks
there is not another city in all these Uni
ted States that would build reservoir
costing nearly 100000, tax it's citizens
heavily on account of it, and then hand
the water around to outsiders in this way
all of which may be properly said when
the council does the thing, but seems not
80 proper ia view of the facts.
The question Of supplying non-residents
with water from the reservoir was cohsid-
cred by the council in November rs, and
the council refused to allow it. The COun-
Gil did on August 9th agree to a recon-
mendatinn of the Water Committee, upon
the petition of q property holders IN West
End. to allow said petitioners to use water
from BUTTERMILK SPRINGS at the regu-
lar water ratt s. the petitioners to bear the
entire expense of pipe laying. NC. and the
CITY to annul the arrangement at pleasure
The result of this ''indiscreet legisla-
tion'' is to add greatly to the convenience
of the people living in West End, while
the CITY, without cost, will derive con-
slant revenue from water that would be
otherwise wasted.

A BISHOP DEPosED.-The House of
Bishops Of the Episcopal Church assembled
in New York, on Monday, deposed Bishop
McCroskey, of Michigan, for immortality.
The N. Y. "Sun'' says:
The canons of the Church require that
the deposition of bishop or a minister
shall be publicly promulgated by the prel
siding bishop. The doors of the little chaper
were swung open by one of the bishops.
1.-THE doors are open, gentlemen he for
mally announced to the three or four men
standing in the vestibule. The spectators
filed in and took their seats. The veneer
able Bishop Smith, the presiding bishop,
sat in the pulpit, clad in his vestments and
holding sheet of legal cap in his hand,
Near him sat Bishop Whipple, Of Mime.
sofa. The other thirty bishops arose and
remained standing before the altar rail-
while Bishop Smith, with trembling hands
and voice faltering with emotion, read
the decree of deposition. Two or three
times the venerable bishop was on the
point of breaking down utterly. and Bishop
Whipple had to prompt and assist him.
Many of the bishops could not control
their grief, and the tears rolled down their
cheeks as the decree was read.
Bishop Smith sat in his Chair while he
read the preamble, and arose tO his feet
when the final resolution was reached. He
passed the sentence Of deposition in a low
but distinct tone, concluding with the
benedlction.
