Thurlow Weed cites several attempts
of party managers in the past to defeat
the will of the people, and warns the
Maine Democrats that in every such
case the party guilty of the offense has
come to grief. One instance which Mr..
Weed quotes is especially worth record
ing, because, incidentally, it gives the
origin of very curious and significant
term in our American politics In Mas
sachusetts, in 1911 and 1912, the Re-
publicans Legislature apportioned the
Representatives so as to deprive the Fed
eralists of their proportion of the repre-
sentation. The wrong was SO fragrant
that the indignation of the people was
aroused and they defeated the purpose
of the law, and until this day the unfair
apportionment of Representatives is
known as "Gerrymanding," from Gov.
Gerry, who signed the bill.

President Prado, of Peru, reached
New York recently, in the steamship
Andes, and says he on the way to Europe
to purchase irou-clads. AS Peru has no
money to make such purchases, his fight
is regarded as practical admission of
the helplessness of the Peruvian cause.
The Chilians now occupy Tarapala by a
force eff eleven thousand men,-as large
an army as the Peruvians can raise to
send out for its recovery. and it is be-
lieved that the cOnquerOrs will continue
to hold the place. The Chilians are ex-
tending the blockade to other Peruvians

given place to Alexander. Bismark develop.
ed steadily his vast scheme. Step by step he
pattied with the supremacy of Austria in Ger.
many, and now after becoming the chief fig.
ure In Prussian politics he was ready to play
MS great game. Between 1852 and 1872 the
lecturer said that he had not time to follow
blsmark. and gave rapid glance over his
succeeding political progress and dominion
over other European powers till finally he OBJ
tanned tor Germany that imperial diadem
which was the glittering symbol of German
unity and Prussian predominance.
But even in Prussia he found opposition
which would have overcome a man of less
steadiness of purpose, for many parts of it did
not believe In German unity, and some OF
them preferred libertyto unity But Bismark, s
diplomacy and stern resolution was equal to
every emergency, and he did not even care to
keep his temper, and his oratorY produced at
once the necessary results by its power rather
than by its elegance. Bismark found himself,
after The conquest of France, with complete
authority. He was elevated to the high chan
cellorship, with unlimited powers, and the
combined arms of Germany were at his COM
mand; the treasury of France was subject to
HIM, and his control over its Emperor was
complete. Bismark's visit to the Tuileries
Was wildly described and how he watched
the gllttering pageant ofroyalty passing before
him, and probably thought it would all be his
ere long.
In closing the lecture the speaker described
Blsmark personal attributes in a very inter-
esting manner; how with several clocks in til,

time was nor ever go out of the house without

RECoLLECTroNs OF THE PAST.

I'm thinking of the place, Tom,
Where oft we used to roam,
That little cot beneath the trees,
We called our forest home.
And well know you'll ne'er forget,
Whate'er your lot below,
The dear old spot we loved so well, >
just fifteen years ago.
I'm thinking of the school, Tom,
The master, too, so grim,
And how, when lie would turn his back,
We twain would mimic him.
The master sleeps deaths dreamless sleep,
The bright green turf below
Our childhoods home has vastly changed
Since fifteen years ago.
Last summer time wandered, Tom,
To where we used to play
The school house was not on the hill,
The brook had dried away;
The old mill wheel had ceased to move,
The cottage was laid low
The faces were not those we knew
Just fifteen years ago.
wandered to the churchyard, Tom,
And stepped beyond the wall;
The graves were many, and the grass
Ger them grew thick and tall;
Upon the stones read the names
OF those that slept below,
And they were names we used to speak
just fifteen years ago.
With saddened heart turned away,
And gained the dIsty rnad
