attempted it should be the result OF

Q. Your party opposes the Weaver
bill: it only pays soldiers when it wants
to use them, and then in different
kind Of money from that used by them
selves Democrat.
Weaver says the democratic majority
in the house of representatives, choked
him off. Which is right? 1t was sen.
sible act anyhow. Perhaps this. is why
the Democrat attributes it to the re-
publicans.
The new editor of the Dc,sOcrat is
really getting too careless. This leaving
old manuscripts on metaphysics
and greenbacks, written SIX
OF eight months ago, lying
around loose to be picked up and put in
type by careless printers, won't do.
The GRAPuIc was not started to fight
republicans for their personal prefer
ences before any ticket is in the field. II
takes pleasure, however. in stirring uE
the elephant of the Democrat. in order
to see that ponderous animal get up and
shake himself:
And now the elephant
Goes round and round
And the band bcgins to play,
And you little boys
Under the monkeys cage
Had better get out OF the way.

Theodore Parker on Prover.

TheodOre Parker on Prayer.
 From Letter to Friend Shortly Before His Death
 My Dear Sir: I thank you heart fly for saying ''you think shall get we'll" I mean to get well, and shall do all in my DOW CT to accomplish it. But don't pray for it any more than youth the sense you use the word. To me, prayer is natural and most delightful exercise. It is this: I feel con- scious of the presence of the infinite power, mind and love which makes and governs the universe II feel that it is close to me. Then, conscious of that dear presence think over the blessings have and the use make of them; I remember the wrong things have done, and think of the right things I ought to do; recollect my joys and my sorrows, my hopes and my fears. So my prayer is an act of gratitude, of penitence Gf I have done wrong,) of aspiration and of joy. But it is not an act of petition. I don't ask. God to do my work,-to saw my wood, to write my books or to make me good man.
 Now, with this notion of prayer, I should no more ask God to restore my health than I should to buy me cargo of tea. I am amazed that men should think their words can alter the mind of the Almighty iGod l. and still more that they should dare do it, if they could If thought it was Gods desire that I should die to-day, but that my asking for life would lead him to let me live 30 Syears more, should not dare to put my little mind against his infinite wisdom and ask for life! the real prayer you and I agree in, 1and detest the sham. Yours truly,
 THEODORE PARKER.

College Notes.

The Harvard class races which occurred last Saturday. were the most successful ever held at that college, fully eight thousand spectators being present. The first event, the junior seulls, one-mile, was won by F. s. Holden, 'S1, in S.49. The senior sculls re- suited in walk over for A. l.. Hall, 80, his competitor, MT. Griswold, upsetting in the first part of the race. The event of the day was the eight-oared. shell race between the four classes of the Academic department Previous to the race the seniors had been the favorites, but at the very start the freshmen took the lead and won by six lengths in 10.41 followed by the sophomores in 11.o4, juniors in 11:05, while the seniors pulled over she course, 1 7-S miles, in 11.15.
 The famous Hahneman shell is again, by the action of the ubiquitous Mir. Goodwin and his colleagues made the bone of conten- tion between Yale and Columbia The shell was at first awarded to the latter college, but upon protest from Yale the matter1was referred to committee by whose decision both colleges agreed to abide. Mir. Goodwin represented Columbia and MT. Sheffield Yale. The committee decided in Aeaio Q 9h i1foh oh tue Srooau Inatt tne cnecAs deposited by Mir. Goodwin with the managers of the fair, to be used should Yale be ahead at the moment of closing the polls, could not be construed money deposited in open ballot. In view of the facts that MT. Good win so vehemently protested his willingness to abide by the decision of the committee, and the underhanded manner in which he acted to secure the prize for his college, the lofty tone in which he characterizes the de- cision of the judges as contrary to all justice and right, is absurd if nothing more.

 CHICAGO, H., May 16.-The first large batch of politicians, delegates. and reporters left for Springfield on the o'clock train to- night They will arrive early in the morn ing and have two whole days to work for the State convention The Farwel crowd was in the majority on the train tonight, their tactics being those of the early bird. They argue that being first on the ground they will have chance to win over the country del egates as they struggle in. They still insist that their delegates are the only legal ones and the State convention cannot get out of admitting them. Some of the Grant men say they will insist on their entire delegation of 92 being seated, and have assurances that it will be done. The others say they will olly ask their proportion accredited by the county primaries. It is reported that several persons elected as Washburne delegates will refuse to go to Springfield, since he has so often declared positively that he was not 8 candidate but their places will no doubt be speedily filled by Washburne or Blaine alter mates.
