The Chicago Tribune is making bitter
bloody shirt fight against Adolph Moses.
the Democratic candidate for Judge ID
Chicago. This is very favorable indi-
cation for Mr.. Moses. The Tribune made
the same sort of fight against Mayor Har
rison aud succeeded ia electing him by a
very handsome majority last spring.
The Rock Island Argus. (Rock Island, Ill.) 1877-1885, 1879-11-03

Tomorrow occurs the greatest political
contest New York has had in years. The
parties fare divided and the outcome is
difficult to forecast, no matter which party
succeed. The regular Democratic candi-
date, Robinson. has made a most excellent
governor and has saved millions of dollars
to the tax pagers. He has vetoed twenty.
seven measures of jobbery and in no
instance has single one of the vetoed
bills been passed over his head. While he
has incurred the displeasare of the ring
sters he has won the firm friendship of the
this class that he.is strongest. Kelly, the
boilers nominee, is the leader OF Tam
many and has large following. Although
he has lost many supporters within the
past two weeks-still he is formidable op-
position, and it is unwise to underestimate
his strength. Some of the more sanguine
of Democratic papers predict Robinson s
election by from 10000 to $4,000 majority,
while other and more conservative journals
place the majority at much lower figure.
The New York Herald. perhaps the most
reliable of all New York papers, comedies
Robinson's election by 10000 majority,
provided!the full party vote is polled. The
New York Sun says:
1.-The Irish and Catholic voters of New York,
whom John Kelly claimed to control, who have
been following his leadership to some extent be
cause he is OF their household and nephew by
marriage of the cardinal, are begin
ming 30 open their eyes to the knowledge of GER
tain important factors in the canvass II John
Kelly is Catholic so also is Francis Herman sena-
tor, whose term wi expire in few years. In help
ing John Kelly with his unreasonable bolt they are
plunging dagger into the vitals of a greater and
better than he The fact is having its influence in
the New York canvass
While Robinson's election is, reasonably
sure, still it is by no means certain. That
the remainder of the Democratic ticket
will be elected, however, all we'll Informed
politicians concede. Should this be So
and Cornell be the only Republican elec-
ted on the state ticket, the Democrats vii
lose nothing: it will simply be a personal
victory for Kelly. The Republicans to
claim any victory must elect their entire
| ticket. Nothing short of this will have eff
effect desired by the party managers. De-
mocrats can afford to lose New York this
year and still be able &c carry the state
| in the presidential canvass. Republics ns
can carry the state this year and still bs
unable to claim the state as Republican il
1880. No matter how New York goes to-
morrow 1t cannot affect Democracy il
can aud giII affect stalwartism.

The Music of the Spheres.

Light comes in undulations to the eye,
as tones of sound to the ear. Must moi
light also sing? The lowest tone we can
hear is made by 1876 vibrations of air
per second; the highest, so shrill and
" fine that nothing lives 'twixt it and
silence,'' is $4,000 vibrations per second.
Between these extremes lie eleven oc-
taves; G of the G clef having 258 rs vi
brations to the second, and its octave
above 517 1-2. Not that sound vibra-
tons cease at $4,000, but our organs are
not fitted to hear beyond those limita-
tons. If our ears were delicate enough,
we could hear even up to the almost in
finite vibrations of light. Were our
senses fine enough, we could hear the
separate keynote of every individual
star. Stars differ in glory and in power.
and SO in the volume and pitch of their
song. Were our hearing sensitive
enough, we could hear not only the sep
arate keynotes, but the infinite swelling
harmony of these myriad stars of the
sky, as they pour their mighty tide OF
united anthems in the ear of God.-Rev.

THE HALCYON DAYS.

Where are the halcyOn days?
The seasons come and go
FlOwer-fruit-SnOw
And bitter cOld-till 10!
UpOn the blossoming we gaze.
Filling with beauty all the ways,
Again the Spring is here;
Again the Autumn sere;
Again the Winter drear,
Nor either stops or stays
Or brings these tabled days.
But care comes with the Spring
Care doth the Summer bring,
And Autumn, following,
Finds meath the misty haze
Heavy the touch she lays
Finds care within her fields,
Blighting the good she yields.
Nor Winters icy shields,
Nor Summers sunny rays,
Fer bring these happy days
Or keep the earth from care!
And seasons, foul or fair,
Alike her presence bear.
Whatc'er their changing phase
On all the burden weighs
All, all do sorrow know,
Flower-fruit-SnO
The seasons come and go,
Nor bring the halcyon days.
