New York for Hancock and Victory,

"
Certain.
New YoRK, October 29.-There was
q great gathering at the National Head
quarters to.day--not that any special
conference was on hand, but very many
Democrats are in town. and they natur-
ally betake themselves to the center OF
Democratic activity. The clerks we're
sending out the last bundle OF docu-
ments. They relate chiefly to the tariff
and the Chinese letter of the Republican
candidate. Some very effective argu
ments have been prepared in answer to
the Republican canards, but the bundles
carried out are scarcely larger than the
bags of correspondence taken in.
Hundreds Of letters are received daily
from every State, all telling OF increas-
ing enthusiasm for General Hancock.
From the interior counties of New York
State the news Is especially cheering -
Some of the best workers in the party
are speaking and personally laboring
with wavering voters. Thers are many
factories and mills in these counties, and
the reporte from them are that the CHI.
nese letter has turned hundreds OF votes
OF workingmen and operatives from
Garfield to Hancock. Free trade, at its
worst, argue these sons of toll, could
not approach the ruin that q Thousand
Cinnamon could make in factory will
age. but the Democratic documents sen,
to these same operatives have convinced
them that the election of Hancock will
not change the revenue laws. The Re.
publican yell that shops and mills must
be closed il Garfield is defeated attract.
ed attention for day only. The grea,
hody of workingmen, II is plainly .indi.
Gated from reports received at headquar
ters, will vote for General Hancock, and
their votes will carry New York State
beyond q doubt. -.
The workingmen of the East have
come to believe that capital and the Re
publican party are arrayed against theil
best interests In half the manufactur.
ing establishments bulldozing and coer
cion have been practiced until the work.
ingman has almost doubted whether b,
had any rights. The Republicans have
carried it too fer, and the reaction al
ready noted in these dispatches is oper
ating against them. This was the hur

GUIDED
By SUSAN CooLuDGE.

Up the long slippery slopes we toll and strain,
Amid the ice and snow,
Untrodden height above us to attain.
Urtroddun depths below;
Danger to left and danger to the right,
All wearily we go.
Cruelty and beautiful the blue creyasse
Yawns close beside the way,
The avalancbes topple DER the pass,
Their cold, white torrents stay
Only moment ere they roar ana plunge,
To rend and whelm and STAY.
Each following each, we mount as we are led
Up the long, steep incline;
Our guide walks calm and fearless at the head
Of the long, Catering line,
And shows the narrow path where safety IL
BY wo-d and look and sign.
Marking his footsteps treading where he trod,
Close following on his track,
We cannot faiut or fall or miss the road,
Though deep the Enows, and black
The prccipices yawn, and rough and steep
The forward path and back.
Intent on him, we do not mark or see
These hard things by the way,
1t is enough that we arc led, and he
Whose guidance we obey
Has gone before and knows how hard it Is;
What he has done we may.
Above the mists we catch faint, far chime,
And gimpses heavenly fair
Shine through, and seem to beckon as We climb
How di tant, bright they are!
Dear guide, lead oni We do not ask for rest,
Would God that we were there.

A Natural BRIDGE in Arizona

Judge De Forest Porter, of the United
States District Court of Arizona, and
MIR. George A Treadwell, a mining ex-
pert, according to the Phoenix Herald.
while exploring Tonic Basin, in Arizona.
discovered limestone bridge more than
three hundred feet wide and six hundred
feet long, rising to an elevation of 1850
feet above the sea level. The rainbow
arch supporting the bridge rises to an
elevation of 175 feet at its lowest point
OF elevation, and near the south end of
the bridge it faces away In graceful out
line until it reaches within two feet of the
surface and about 200 feet from the
water flowing below. The arches are
decorated with numberless stalactites,
whose dripping imstone waters have
formed everything layers of stalagmites
far below, presenting an appearance
scarcely inferior to the great Niagara in
Its winter raiment. The width of the
arch is something more than $50 feet,
and III its perfect symmetry it presents
most impressive and grand appearance,
whether viewed from the banks above or
from the bed Of the stream below. On
the west side of the arch, and about
sixty feet from the bed of the stream. a
large balcony projects boldly from the
side and beneath the arch. It is of per-
fectly graceful shape, and is large enough
to accommodate 100 persons. The huge
abutment of the bridge rests on
formation of red porphyry rock, forming
the bed of creek, and on it's west side
the bridge butts up against an immense
dixie of trap rocks, $50 feet high and near
~ perpendicular The general course
OF this wonderful stream is nearly east
and west, and the course of Pine creek.
which it covers, is nearly north and
south, emptying into the east fork of the
Verde river, twelve miles below, and to
the high basalt bluffs of the Mogollon
mountains, which are plainly visible to
the northward. The manner in which
this notable structure has been formed
by nature will, no doubt, soon become a
subject of careful scientific study and in
vestigation. Mr.. Treadwell, after the
somewhat cursory examination so far
made by him, is convinced that the
source of the formation is to be found in
an adjoining stream of mineral water
heavily charged with carbonate of lime.

The husband of Lucretia Mott is said
to have abandoned his excellent cotton
business because of its connection with
slave labor. His comfortable income of
course, went with the business, and Mrs.
Mott opened school and maintained
their family of four young children un-

employment, in which he finally acquired
a competence. Of their children only
