Going to Pieces.

The old Republican junk since it has
been in command of Captain Garfield
has had an exceptionally rough voyage.
Head winds. occasionally rising to cy-
clone have created big waves. Sew
eral distinguished Republican under
officials have been washed overheard;
some have been thrown overheard,
while others, knowing the rotten con-
dition of the old junk, have abandoned
it and are trying to swim ashore. The
DAYS and nights have been cloudy, so
that Captain Garfield and his FirstMa
(Blaine) have been unable to take OBJ
servations, and are now unable to tell
the latitude and longitude. Chronome-
ter and compass are out of order. The
steering gear is defective, and conster-
nation reigns on deck from bowsprit to
taffrail. 10 make things still worse,
Garfield is seasick. Blaine is in COM
mand, and as work is inev. table, symp-
toms of mutiny have been discovered
and the forecastle is ripe for treason.
James. in rummaging round for leaks,
has struck bilge waterin vast quantities,
and the sickening etfiuvium max es the
Republican junk a great National stink.
Window has also struck nastiness in
the junk money chest, and it is now
believed the best thing that can be done
is to scutte the junk. and Conkling is
engaged in that business General But
Ter is likely to come prominently to the
front, and if Blaine is not reported dis
abled, Republicans, Stalwarts and Halt
breeds will be disappointed. The peo-
pie look on as the old Republican junk
settles down into her native slime and
mud with wonderful complacency.
Whether she goes down bow first. stern
first or sidewise, is not material; she
carries down nothing but cargo OF
practical plundering- frauds. villains,
periuries, rs ar-route'' and Treasury

sink to soundess depths of infany."
The DAYS of Republican tribulation have
come. sure enough. Deep-seated. deep
rooted, long nursed villainy is coming
to the surface. 1t is breaking out. The
old Republican junk has made her last
voyage. She is moving toward warm

Wife's Devotion to a Worthless Hus.
band.

The death in Jersey City of Mrs. Sa-
rah M. Hamilton recalls touching sto-
ry of wifely devotion. Mrs. Hamilton
was connected with highly respectable
family. She was married to Alexander
d. Hamilton, whose family connections
were equal to her own. Hamilton asso.
ciated with politicians, and eight or nine
years ago was made Treasurer of Jersey
City. He had been in Office a trife less
than three years when he fed, and it
was discovered that he had stolen $780,
600 worth of city bonds. He was track
ed through the country until he was
finally ascertained to be in Mexico. PO-
lice Sergeant, now Chief Benjamin Muir
ply, was sent to that country to capture
him. Murphy found that Hamilton had
placed himself under the protection of
Cortina, who was the leader of a pow.
erful band of outlaws. He declared that
his protection would last only so long as
Hamilton's money, and he patiently
waited in Mexico till the outlaws should
turn the fugitive out from among them
penniless. He did not have to wait
many weeks. Cortina robbed his ward
of all he had and then abandoned him.
Murphy brought him back to Jersey
City. The first person to meet him was
his faithful wife. She forgave him the
disgrace he had brought upon her and
their children.
When he was arraigned he pleaded
guilty. More in response to her entreat-
les than to any circumstances mitigat-
ing his offense, the court leniently inn
posed a sentence of but three years inn
ppisonment. Mrs. Hamilton went at
once to the Governor to seek her hus-
bands pardon. When she found that
he could do nothing without the aid OF
Court of Pardons, she importuned every
body in her large circle of friends to in
tercede with the members of the court
in her husbands behalf. She sacrificed
health and fortune in her efforts to get
him out. A year before his term would
have expired he was released from con-
finement.
Mrs. Hamilton then placed the REM
nant of her little fortune in his hands,
and babe him make new man of him.
self. His friends believed that he was
on the fair road to redemption, and gave
him lifting hand. He established
milk route that gave employment to
three men, and yielded a handsome in
come; but he soon fell back into evil
company. Selling out his milk route,
he purchased a saloon on Grove street.
There he started a variety show of the
very lowest character. He practically
deserted his wife for the lewd women
that performed on his stage or gathered
to witness the plays. The police raided
the place and arrested him. Mrs. Ham,
ilton sat in court during his trial, acting
the part of faithful wife, notwithstand-
ing his treachery to her. During this
time Mrs. Hamilton's family and friends
saw with anxiety that her health was
failing. They begged her to discard the
man and leave him to his fate. She
turned deaf ear to them. Several
years ago Hamilton disappeared from
his home. The faithful woman heard
nothing from him, and her death from
broken heart is the reward of her fidel-
