THE TIDE RISES, THE TIDE FALLS.
The tide rises, the tide falls,
The twilight darkens, the curlew calls;
Along the sea sands damp and brown
The traveller hastens toward the town,
And the tide rises, the tide falls.
Darkness settles on roofs and walls,
But the sea in the darkess calls and calls:
The little waves, with their soft white hands,
Efaoe the footprints in the sands,
And the tide rises, the tide falls.
The morning breaks: the steeds in their stalls
Stamp and neigh, as the hostler calls:
The day returns, but nevermore
Returns the traveller to the shore,
And the tide rises. the tide falls.

AaREAT CONFERENCES.

The great Ecumenical gathering to be
held at Londoa, which was decided
upon by the NJ. f. Conference at Gin
cinnati, is attracting much attention.
The enterprise originated. We believe,
with DR.. GEORGE, formerly of this city
and now of Chicago, who has indus
triously advocated it through two or
three Conferences, and MAS largely in
strumental in settling the details at the
last General Conference in May. The
following gives some idea OF the plan
and purposes OF the Conference:
The members OF the conference will
number 400, one half of whom will rep
resent British and Continental Method
ism, and one-hali the churches in the
United States and Canada. AS nearly
as possible the conference will be COM
posed OF Law and clerical delegates equal
liz. The 20O delegates from the United
States will BE- assigne to the churches
az follows: The Methodist Episcopal
Church, 80 delegates; Methodist Epis-
COpal CuuICil SOutii, ~, -hhNai -hCth-
odist Episcopal Church, IL; Methodist
Episcopal Zion Church, 10; the Colored
Methodist Episcopal Clurch OF America,
d: the Evangelical Association, s; the
Union American NJ. T.. Church, 2;
the Union American Protestant
Church. .; the Metho list Protestant
Church, 6; the American Wesleyan
Church, 1; the Free Methodist Church,
.; the lndep. ndent Methodist Church,
2: the Congregational Methodist Church,
.. the Methodist Church of Canada, II;
the VI. T.. Church OF Canada, 4; the
Primitive Methodist Church in the
United States and Canada, .; the Bible
Christian, 9; the British NJ. +. Church.
>. The remaining six members are LETT
to be distributed by the western section
of the general executive committee.
The assiyums MS OF delegates to the
European and Continental Churches
have not vet been made. The delegates
will be named bv the conferences as
they meet between this time and next
July.
The conference will net meet for legis-
latiyc purposes, for it will have no au-
thority TO legislate. 1t is not Tor doc
trinal controversies, for Methodism has
no doctrinal differences. 1t is not for an
attempt to harmonic the various poll
ties and usayes OF the several branches
of the one great Methodist family, for
Methodism has always striven for uni
ty rather than uniformity. 1t is not, in
a word, for consolidation, but for Co
operation. 1t is to devise such means
for prosecuting our home and foreign
work as will result IN the greatest econ
omy and efficiency, to promote fraterni-
ty, TO increase the moral and evangelical
power of common Methodism, and to
secure the more speedy conversion Of
the world.
1t has been suggested that the proper
topics to consider are those respecting

popery, paganisn, pauperism. scep-

itinerant ministry, training schools for
Christian workers, both ut home ana
abroad; Sunday schools and special
efforts for special classes. Concerning
missionary labor, It is further
proposed to examine Methodism
"A 4 missionary movement, the relation
of the home work to the foreign work
and the best mode ofavoiding waste and
riyalries, and of securing instead thereof
sympathy and cooperation between dii-
ferent Methodist bodies occupying the
same or contiguous mission fields; the
use OF the press for the increase OF Chris
tan knowledge and sanctifyiDg power;
the resources OF Nethodism IN numbers.
wealth. culture, spiritual life and revival
agencies, and the corresponding respon-
sibility, the spiritual unity Of Methodism,
and the best way to secure its malnten-
ance and increase and to manifest 1t TO
the world.
The conference will meet in City Road
Chapel, which was the first church oil
the Methodists. For many years John
Wesley preached there, and his pulpit
is still shown to Methodist travellers
who visit Eng'and's capital. The dele
CATION from this country will be COM
posed OF the strongest men OF the
church, and will most probably be head
ed by Bishop Simpson, OF the NJ r..
Church. Great interest in the confer
ence is manifested by all the branches
OF the church, and it promises to be the
most important assembly of Methodists
that ever took place.

AN ANTIpoTE FOR rsE LADIES

The Democratic ladies', as well as the
gentlemen, who entered so enthusias-
tically into the late campaign, will need
something to turn their thoughts back
to the more practical and less capricious
and exciting affairs OF everyday life.
We don't know anything in this line
more divsr,ilg to III. av'ra:e Mss and
Ma lame than the announcement OF an
invention that will give them "a fit
We mean, Of course, fl: as applied to
her toilet.
The new invention is said to be to the
cutter what the machine Is TO the
sewer. An exchange describes its OPP
erations to be so unique that all a wo-
man has to do is to step into the thing
and by a curious manipulation OF
springs and wires and tapes and things
she is measured TO a dot, her form is
delinsated to a nicely, the places Tor the
cores and gussets and bands and what
not, are accurately mapped out, every
irregulari,y OF form is recti6ed and the
regularities made all the more so.
From the delineation thus pro.
duced the cloth is rapidly and
accurately cut in the twink
ling OF the planet Jupiter, the dress is
ready for the sewing machine. No more
weary waiting for week between the
purchase Of the goods and the delightful
donning Of the new garment, no more
running back to the dressmaker to be
taken in here and let out there; the dress
is perfect at the first venture and cannot
help being so. II is turned out complete
like apyramid Office cream from mould.
1t is just so and can't help being so.
Such an invention is one of the wonders
of the century, and the ladies will vel.

smiling eyes.

Washington Post.
The voters OF the United States had
an opportunity on the % inst, to defeat
Grant indirectly. Having failed to per-
i)rm this duty they will be called to &C.
complish it by direct methods in 1884.
1t is scarcely supposeable case that
there is an intelligent man 80 utterly
unsophisticated as not to understand
that the election OF Garfield for the next
term was the nomination OF Grant as his
successor.
II the compact, IN fuIfillment OF
which Conkling and Grant stepped into
the arena and helped to elect Garfield,
had been engraven on steel and fasten-
ed to every door-post, the people could
not know more certainly than they now
do that the succession OF Grant was the
consideration in that trade. The acts OF
Conkling and Grant are susceptible oil
but one Interpretation.
We shall have ID admit that the DEM
ocratic press discharged its duty in warn
ing the country that Grant and the Em-
pire stood behind Garfield. And to leave
no doubt that Grantism and Imperial.
ism are synonymous terms, the recent
declarations to that effect oil the highest
Republican authorities we're cited.
Only five months ago, when the I'm.
perialists had packed their local conven-
tons and prepared for their descent on
the Chicago Convention, MANY OF the
most conservative Republican journals,
and thousands OF Republican politicians,
appealed to the party to save the coun.
try from the Empire. They declared
| that another term of Grant meant Grant
for life. They think so still, but they
have chosen to take the risk and trust
| to Providence rather than suffer defeat
| in the contest OF $50.
The administration OF General Gar
field will be controlled by Mr.. Conkling,
as per agreement duly ratified, and q
principal objective point will be to build
up and strengthen tirantism. What
| that is, the country knows to its cost,
knows to its SORROW. We quote the
words OF some OF the foremost Republi-
cans now in public life when We say
that 1.-The second term OF Grant was the
most corrupt administration in our his
tory"
The influences with the administra.
ton, thus directed, can exert, will rem
der the nomination OF Grant in 1884 a
mere formality. All the conventions,
from primary to National, will be packed
by Federal ofliceholders, and the ex,
President-whose Unsuitable greed oil
office is the most pronounced feature OF
his character-will be declared the NOM
inee. All this will be the legitimate, the
inevitable result Of General Garfield as
