Entmoncd in circle of gold, reposing
Wrapped with zone OF the azure skies
From the velvet sheen of her couch dis
closing
Dimpled hands and bewitching eyes.
Over the bright, clear brow caressing
Low sweep the masses of dark brown
hair.
Under the bosom white seems pressing
A sigh dissolved in tiny prayer.
From parted lips from where cupid's bow
Is
The pearly white that would mock the
snow
Set with garland of buds of roses
Like ivory glistens in even vow.
Beside the couch in censer swinging,
Oders sweet as a summers morn,
Incense ever to heaven springing
In crystal chalice from Afric' born.
Balmy sleep DER the Hall is brooding
Even the bird with the golden wings.
Midst the golden leaves where the sun
shines flooding,
Pauses in silence before he sings.

OUR WASHINGTON LETTER.

WASHINGTON ID. c., June ~. 1879.
The democratic tumble down is
fearful to contemplate, and with wry
faces they are proceeding to make
the best of very bad situation.
The fourth veto message was a
crusher. 1t was an able document
in itself; and, taken in connection
with the untenableness and dishon.
essy OF the democratic position, its
force was invincible. The Presi-
dent was obliged to veto the bill or
abdicats legitimate authority and al
low the u. s. courts TO be virtually
closed. Nevertheless the democrats
are very mad because he exercised
his legitimate authority, and showed
that he is the Executive of the ma.
tion as well as steadfast republican
Their FIRST impulse was to renew the
starving out policy. But upon sec.
oud thought the leaders concluded
that discretion was the better part,
therefore they as usual resorted to
the caucus for comfort. In that
body the implacable bourbons show
ed that they had majority of House
members but minority of senators
sufficient to turn the scale. A plan
was then adopted by the caucus,
which proposed frst, the passage of

tence of its first section declaring
that "no part of the money hereby
appropriated is appropriated to pay

26 of the Revised Statutes" The
second section of the vetoed bill

ment of general or special deputy
marshals for service on election days
in advance of an appropriation suf,
ticient to meet such contract or pay
such liability. Second, it proposes
supplemental bill consisting sim
ply of the 100000 item and the
second section above summarized,
together with clause prescribing
penalty of not exceeding $4,000
or imprisonment not exceeding 5
years. The first bill repeals the ju.
rors' test oath law only of the first
disputed legislation. Neither the
first nor second contains anything
relative to supervisors, and therefore
that subject is dropped. The bills
were introduced in the House yes
tcrday, and the first one was passed
the republicans opposing it, after
having attempted TO amend it so as
to include the marshal clause. The
second one will pass today probably.
But more time will be demanded for
discussion in the Senate, and al.
though the bills may pass, the second
one, being identical with the ohjec-
tionable part of the vetoed bill, can
hardly fail of the residents disap.
proval. Then the question returns,
what will the majority do, and when
will they adjourn ! learn that alb
sent members of Congress on both
sides are being summoned TO return
apparently in anticipation Of a pro
tracted controversy. One thing
seems to be settled by the last veto:
the democrats are not ready to ad.
iourn without completing the appro-
priations. They have heard from
The country at large, and it is op
posed to revolution.
The news from Maine is as cheer.
ing as it is from Ohio. The republi-
cans are united and harmonious, and
many secedcrs Of last year are com,
ing back while the quarrels of the
democrats and greenbackers are
equally apparent and favorable. The
extra session has had wonderfully
good effect as az awful warning
against democratic domination.
Capt. Jas. B. Eads was rendered
by the President place on the Mis-
sissippi River Improvement Com
mission, but declined because he
thinks the bill subordinates the civil
to the military engineers on the
Commission. Capt. Eads rightly
judges that private enterprise is bet
ter than official red tape, and there
is no reason why such a great civil
work should be given to army officers
