Very fyw historic periods that are
so near are go little understood ,as the
Reign Of or-probably because it
has commonly. been, represented in 50
partisan . manner. Horrible as il
was, il was,less horrible than is com
monty thought. It did not lust nearly
so long, nor were SO, many persons
killed, as most persons believe. The
terror proper began with the execu,
ton Of, Marie Antoinette, October ~,
1893, and ended with the beheading Of
Robespierre, July. %, 1874, who was
really the head and front Of ith bar,
barous offending. It. cont;pqel nine
months and twelve days; though the
popular opinion is that il extended
through several years. The number
Of its victims has been greatly exag'
gerated, having been reported at ss
high, as 10000. 1900, and even co.
OOO., The. number has never been, aud
never can be. exactly ascertaiped; but
it was between $500 and $500, so tar
as can be oomputed-being probably
nearer the former than the latter 6g.
ures. FreHchnen are still qparreling
over the cause, characteristics, and
results Of. their great revolution, each
judging Of it by his bias of tempera-
ment and political opinions.-Albei
few regard it now as a deliberate on
slaught of the populace on law, order,
property and life. judgments Of calm
and philosophic men differ widely a.
to its consequences. Sens esteem It
to have been dreadful slaughter
without any compensation; Others pro-
nounce it one of the. most inspiring
events in. history. Robespierre has
been generally portrayed as monster
of cruelty; but he was amiable in pri-
vate. absolutely incerruptibIe. rather
callous than actively cruel, and acqu:.
esced reluctantly in the atrocities Tor
which he has been held responsible.
He frequently sale. ;. probably with en-.
tire truth: Death. always death; and
the scoundrels throw the odium Of
this continual butchery all upon me.
What q memory EshAll leave behind.
If. this. fearful carnage goes onl It
makes my lite d burden and horror;
and yet, where is my way out Of this
unendiug massacre Another centu7
ry must be far advanced before reason
ing mankind can hold any harmoni-
GUS view of the French revolution.

Though the machine Republicans Of
New York, who nominated Cornell,
may have been promised a speech OF
two fronSec'y Evarts. it nov, seems
unlikely that that. assistance will be
given them, The eminent Secretary
is reformer, as is Sec'y Schnrz,
These two gentleman were given by
Mr.. Hayes the job, in March 1877, Of
reforming the civil service. Sec'y
Schurz is outspoken in his opposition
to Cornell. So is George William
Curtis the original Republican reform
er. So are most Of The reformers who,
before they became reformers, were
not unscrupulous veteran politicians.
As noted aborcy.itis extremely doubt
falifthe Secretary Of State will speak in
New York. Itwould hardly do. when
the Democrats of the State have just
got rid of the worst elements of their
party. for the reform Republicans to
help the triumph of the worst elements
IT theirs.
Itis a great mistake that our Demo.
cratic friends make if they believe
there is enough third term in Gen.
Grants receptions to do any harm.
The General has commanded larger
armies than any other man Living, and
was in command of all the u. s. troops
say ose and half millions-at the
close of the civil war. Without look
ing at the questioned his ability as q
General, we know. that he was q suo-
cessful one; and successful Generals
always have received and always will
receive the applause Of their country
men, no matter what the condition of
party politics may be. To connect the
receptions in California and the com.
ing ones further east, with the politics
OF the country in any way, or to say
that they mean athird term for Grant,
is to say that the people think as high
lily Of his civil as of his military career,
and there could be no greater absurd
ity than that. .
The citizens Of. Washington are for
the first time in their history attempt
ing to inaagurate series Of annual
Fairs on, a large scale. Suitable
grounds have been secured, and great
preparations are being made for the
first Fair which will e'held this Fall
But efforts will not cease with. this
year. There will be continual i'm
provement, until all parts of the coun-
try will become interested, and then,

MARGERY.
BY JOSEPHINE POLLARD.
Margeryl
Margery!
All the birds sang "Margery!"
All along the meadow grass
Tripped the pretty country lass
With her milk-paii swinging low.
With her rosy cheeks aglow,
And her deep blue eyes ashine
With a secret-hers, not mine
While the birds sang merriIy.
Margeryi
Margeryi
Margery,
Margery!
Once she Joined their needy;
But she heeds them not to-day,
Turns no listening ear that way.
But, with eager, anxious face,
Hurries to the milking-place,
Lost in thought, but l opine
IT'S not of the well-fed kline
She is thinking now: an. me.
Margery!
Margeryi
Margeryi
MargeryI
Still the birds sing "Margeryi'
Weaving round her webs OF song
As she lightly trips along,
Hoping to the maid
Who to them some homage paid
Not so very long ago.
When their speech she seemed to
Shouting back in childish glee,
Margery!'
Margeryi
Margery!
Pray what can the matter be?
Why that look OF 10y and pride?
Why that blush 'twsre vain to hide9 x
Whence that strange new light that lies
Deep within those lustrous eyess
In the milk-pail but a ruse
Thy departure to excuse
Where's lover waits for thee.
Margery,
Margeryi
Margery.
Margery,
Some one whispered 'Margeryi'
AS up through the corn he came.
Softly ~syllabling her name;
She who had no ears TO hear
Rird-songs sounding loud and clear.
Hear the voice. and could not stir;
Sweetest music twas TO her.
