Many years since Sidney Smith, in a

Many years since Sidney Smith, in q
note addressed to Parlisment, said:
"YOur conduct to Ireland is that of q
man who subscribes to hospitals, weeps
at charity sermons, carries out broth
and blankets to beggars, and then comes
home and beats his wife and children.
You have compassion for the
victims of all other oppression and in
justice except at home. The
very moment the name of Ireland is
mentioned, the English seem to bid
adieu to common sense, common pru-
dence, and common feelings, and to act
with the barbarity of tyrants and the
fatuity of idiots. And rapacious rulers
have actually conflscatedI Ireland sew
eral times over.''

TEE AGE CALLS.
The age calls,
It loudly calls,
To hearts that yearn.
In words that burn,
To do their country good.
The age calls.
1t gladly calls
Not to wake the cannon's roar,
Not to wage blood-red war.
Not to drench the earth with blood.
And sweep OF plenty, like flood.
The age calls.
It sweetly calls,
To keep aloft the nag Of peace,
And bear the captive quick release,
To train the mind and prize the soul
And scatter knowledge nom pole to pola
The age calls,
1t often calls,
To each enterprising heart,
To improve in every art,
And drive the wheels Of science on
To perfection. as they run.
The age calls.
It earnestly calls,
To raise the moral standard higher,
And add fuel to that living IRE
which leads NJ On to richer glory.
Than burns in song or brssthss in story.
The age calls,
1t wisely calls,
To banish darkness from the world
And cause Satan's banner to be furled,
To send the Gospel fAr abroad
And win each trhobbing heart for God.
The age calls,
It truly calls
Let every ear attend the cry,
Let every tongue. in turn, reply,
I'VE will that call obey
Till reigns an endless perfect day."

According to Judge Hughes the South
was solidified by the appointment Of
Northern Republicans to Office in pref
efence to natives, deeming this to have
been offensive to moderate Democrats
and to Southern men. In this the
Judge Is, we believe, mistaken. It is
true there were q number of rascally
carpet-baggers in the South, but the
verdict of the Democratic party, we
think, Is that there were worse scala
wags, and it is a well-known fact that
the Southern people have treated the
Northern Republicans who came
among them and behaved themselves,
with more consideration and respect
than they did the Southern Republicans
who were Confederates. The reason is
plain. The Southern people regarded
these of their comrades in arms, their
neighbois-men born on the soil of the
SOuth-who joined the Republican
party and attempted to organize the
black vote, and lead it as desertels o.
of their race and principles, and it was
impossible to prevent the expression of
such feelings. And while the feeling
has everywhere been quieted and soft
ened by time, there IL still the same
feeling, less violent and less offensive,
existing among the people.-Lynchburg

Now, what has Gen. Malone done?
He has voted to give the Republicans
the control of the United States Senate.
1t Is known that all important legis-
lation is matured by the Committees,
and that the party having the chair
manships and majority in the commit
tees has greatly the advantage In shap-
ing the policy and directing the legisla-
ton of the body. By Mahone's vote,
this power has been transferred from
the Democrats to the Republicans. He

harm. In other words he has deliber-
ately betrayed the people of this State
to their worst enemies Winchester

THE EFFECT OF THE CoALITION.-The
Lynchburg Nrginian says that, since
the shameful coalition at Washington of
the Republican Senators with Malone
the debt-payers of this State "think
and say, that If the Republicans, who
have always avOwed themselves to be
in favor of the observance of good faith
towards both State and Federal credi
tors, can go into partnership with Ma
hone and his gang of Regulators, there
is no longer any use in their making
sacrifices to hold Virginia to her obliga-
tions. And SO. it is not improbable that
many of the hitherto stalwart Debt Pay
ing Conservatives will, in the next con-
test, be pronounced in favor Of ignoring
this question altogether, will make their
fight with Republicans strictly, on 9th
er issues, and leave the debt to take care
of itself; or commit the bondholders to
the tender mercies~ of William Malone
and his Republican associates. We say
that this is the tendency of things In
Virginia to day."

General Mahone's advent to the Sem
ate has been productive of much good
to the democratic party of his State, and
possibly of much harm to the republic
can party of the country. 1t has GER
tainly brought back to the democratic
fold in Virginia all those who followed
the General out of that fold except the
comparatively few who expect to receive
office through his influence. As regards
the republican party of the nation, it
has shown that party that its repre-
sentatives in the Senate are 50 intent
upon obtaining possession of individual
power, that simply and solely to get the
0hairmanships Of the committees Of that
body, they have descended to the low
trickery of ward politicians, to a regular
bargain and trade, and that, too. with .
leader of repudiationists and of those
who want the principles of forcible re-
adjustment applied as well to the ma
tional as to the Virginia debt.-Aler.

Across in my neighbours window,
With Its draping Of satin and lace.
Isee. meath his flowing ringlets,
A baby's innocent face.
His feet in crimson slippers,
Are tapping the polished glass.
And the crowd in the street look upward,
And nod and smile as they pass.
Just here In my cottage window,
Catching flies in the sun,
With patched and faded apron.
Stands my own little one,
His face Is as pure and handsome
AS the baby's over the way,
And he keeps my heart from breaking
At my toiling every day.
Sometimes when the day is ended.
And sit In the dusk to rest,
With the face OF my sleeping darling
Rugged close to my lonely breast,
I pray that my neiehbor's baby
May not catch heavens roses all,
But that some may crown the forehead
or my loved one as they MI.
And when I draw the stockings
From his little weary feet.
And kiss the rosy dimples
In his limbs. 80 round and sweet,

The Democratic party can we'll afford
to lose the Senate organization, when
the party in Virginia is so much the
gamer as to put it now beyond the reach
of defeat at the next election. Malone
as Democrat weakened the party by
drawing to his readjuster faction votes
from the regular organization upon the
local debt question. AS q Republican
he has lost his power to do this. Hence
the Richmond Dispatch correctly says !:
I'VE do not feel like complaining Of
him. He has placed himself where he
can no longer profess to be Democrat
As Democrat, he drew off Democrats
from their proper party. As he now
stands, he will hereafter give the Re.
publicans the trouble he has heretofore
given US, or else he will have to 90 over
to that party. In either event the Dem
ocrats will be the gainers."

" Bleeding Within

Tom DAILY, an old Comstocker, who
is now superintendent of a mine near
Nevada City, was on the up-train yes
terday. Tom is considerable of wag,
and generally has something to COM
municate of humorous nature. He
tells of little unpleasantness he had

1t appears that his neighbor has poor
opinion of Comsteckers in general, and
when Tom arrived he declared him to
be nothing more than Comstock
rough. This insinuation, untruthful
of course, did not trouble Tom much,
but he nevertheless denounced it as
base SANDER. Friends interceded and
succeeded in convincing the outspoken
individual that he was mistaken as to
identity, when he began TO repent and
