.ANsWER TO "OUR SAILOR BOY"

FOR THE cApITOLlAk.
Know that thy sailor boy IL safe,
On the oceans deep blue breast
No waves run high, Or tempest roars,
The god Of the sea Is at rest.
The brave old bark that bore him away
Dances along, light and free;
And your sailor lad, at the close Of day,
Thinks fondly Of home and Of thee.
Yes, dreams Of his dark eyed.sweetheart,
As the sun dips low in the west,
And wonders if she too il dreaming
Of him, who loves her best.
He whispers fond words to the wavelets,
To the seagulls fitting above.
DO these messages ever reach yo,.-
Frcightcd with his love!
He knows that prayers ascend daily
From hearts, 10 leal and true;
And are waited to heaven by angels,
For the boy OIL the waters blue. AEM.

BECAUSE GENERAL HANCOCK hap
pens 20 be a great soldier, it is
assumed as natural inference by
the republican press that be cannot
be statesman. This is pretty rough
on Grant and on Garfield himself; but
history furnishes REPUTATION OF such
an absurd notion in the persons OF
Napoleon, Warrington, Wellington,
Csssar, and heaven knows how many
others. What the country needs is a
man with executive ability, thing
which has been IS couspicuously
absent in republican presidents
as Conkling was at the great
conference on Thursday, end
it matters not whether it be
found in a soldier or in a blacksmith.
The democrats are cafe in one thing
at least-if they we're to search g
thousand years they could not get a
worse excuse for q man with executive
ability and statesmanlike qualities
than the present incumbent of the
White House exhibits; any change
must be for the better.

The PRELIMINARY examination OF
Schroeder, for the murder OF DR..
LeFevre, at Oakland, CAL, about two
weeks since, has concluded and the
defendant been held without bail.
The examination was full and excited
q great deal OF interest; the defendant
was surprised at bis retention and the
public generally, whose sympathy
would seem to be with Schroeder, was
also suI yrised. Schroeder's wife con-
fessed that LeFevre bad seduced her,
but it was nearly 8 month after the
confession before the assassination
was con- mitted. The defense at
tempted to set up the plea of temper
airy insanity, but the court wisely
held the evidence to be such that he
would be compelled to hold the de-
PENDANT without bail. Temporary in.
sanity is a plea that is being worn
and the idea that one man
is justified in taking tbs life of
another because he feels wronged,
and needs only to work up an inssn-
lty in order to secure an acquittal, is
becoming too general. In cases such
IS Schroeder's there is great wrong,
but It takes two persons to be guilty
Of that wrong.
