Origin of a PonuIar Poem.

Mr.. Whittier's own statement OF tho
origin Of his poem of Maud Muller, is
quoted by a correspondent Of the
Springfield Republican. He was driv.
ing with his sister through York, Me,
and stopped OF a harvest field to inquire
the way. A youug girl rakipg hay near
the stone wall stopped to answer the in
quiries. Whittier noticed as sine
talked that she bashfully raked the hay
around and over her bare feet, and she
was fresh and fair. The little incident
left its impression, and he wrote out the
poem that very evening. but if I had
any idea,' he said, that the plaguey
little thing would have been so liked, l
should have taken more pains with it,
To the inquiry MS to the title, Maud
Muller, he said it was suggested to him,
and not n selection. 1t came as the
poem came. But he gives it the short
German pronunciation, 40 Meuler, not
the broad Yankee Muller.

Foreign Election Tricks,

Even in imperial Austria, it seems,
they are up to electioneering tricks which
rival the drollest that are practiced in
the freest and efsiest parts of our own
land. In Gaiicia the two leading parties
are Polish and Ruthenian. At the re.
cent election efforts were made by both
sides to secure the success of their can
didates, and the two principal hotels on
the market-place of Breezan we're filed
with electors who had arrived from the
country to record their votes.
The Ruthenians, mostly priests of the
United Greek church, who occupied one
of these hotels, determined to steal a
march on their opponents by going to
the place where the election was to be
held at sunrise, in order to win votes for
their side. Accordingly, at 5 o'clock in
the morning OF the polling day, they
called the waiter TO brush their clothes
and boots. The waiter came and took
away the garments, but, although the
priests waited nearly an hour, he did
not bring them back. They rang and
shouted, but in vain, all the people of
the hotel seemed to be asleep.
at last the priests began to suspect
that a trick was being played upon them.
1t became evident that they must either
allow the election to be completed with
out taking part in it, or go barefooted
and without their neither garments to
the voting place. They chose the sec,
ond course; but here, too, their adver-
earies were too much for them. Scarce.
ly had they came out of the hotel when
a Polish policeman came up and threat
ened to putthem in prison for improper
conduct, if they did not return at once
to their rooms. There was nothing for
it but to go back, and the Poles won the
election,

The San Antonio Herald relates
this: On a bed in the pest-house a
young man was lying stricken with the
exanthematic plague that has fingered
so long in this city. There was no suffer.

able; he alone of all the city lay in the
hateful house with the yellow flag, the
hateful symbol Of taboo, fluttering out
its message Of warning, crying to the
winds 'Uncleanr taking up the song of
the lepers in Judea; but Helon's physi.
clan no longer walked the earth. Never

monster in his den and wrestled with him
for the prize. Day and night she stood
