ONE BY ONE.

One by one the sands are falling,
One by one the moments fall i
Some are coming, some are going,
Do not strive to grasp them all.
One BY one thy duties wait thee;
Let thy whole strength go TO each
Let no future dreams elate thee;
Learn thou first what these can teach.
One by one, bright gifts of heaven,
JOYS are cent thee here below;
Take them readily when given,
Readily, too, to lei them go.
One by one thy griefts shall meet thee,
Do not fear an armed band
One will fade az others greet thee,
Shadows passing through the land.
Do not look at LIES long sorrow
See how small each moments pain;
God will help thee for tomorrow.
So each day begin again.
Every hour that fleets so slowly
Has its task TO do or bear /;
Luminous the crown, and holy,
Ifthou set each gem with care.

A Young Girl Murdered by Her Lover

A young girl named Barbara Greenthal was
stabbed to death Monday night in Brooklyn,
N. Y, by young man named James Walsh,
whose attentions she had rejected. He pf9-
cnred small dirk, sharpeneQ the tlade Until
it would cut like a razor, and repaired to her
house. She came out and talked to him, and
then left him and ran into The house. Later
in the night, having occasion 10 go TO the
door, she saw Walsh still hanging around,
aud she went out to speak to him. \ few
Minutes after she staggered into the hallway,
exolaiming, "Oh, lm stabbed t. and sank
dead in the arms of one Of the family, who
opened the basement door just as she was
falling Walsh dropped his weapon and made
off.
After the murder Walsh went down to Cow
Gnus canal and attempted to commit suicide
by drowning himself, but hs was fshed out
and taken to the Long Island College Hospi-
tai. 1t was not known at the time that he was
the murderer, but he told who he was, and he
was removed to the police station, where he
was found to BIO so exhausted that physician
had to be called in to attend him.

Baltimore's Prosperity.

The Baltimore papers of the first instant
gave resume of the trade Of the city for
the year just closed, and the exhibit is a
dattering one for the prosperity of the city.

a falling off in exports Of corn 6,744,57o

Distressing ACCIDENT,

A most distressing and in all likelihood ia.
tai accident occurred at Hamburg, some sew
enty miles north of St. Joseph, Mo-, on New
Year Eve. Miss Kate Campbell, daughter
of Col. Campbell, of that city, was visiting
her friend Mamie Wood, daughter of lead.
ing merchant of Hamburg. The two young
ladies had just finished dressing to attend a
ball, and as Miss Wood was crossing the room
in which they wers waiting the arrival of her
escort her dress, a flowing robe of Swiss mus
lin, touched the stove and instantly took fire.
She ran, and in passing Miss Campbell the
latter's dress was ignted. Before assistance
came Miss Wood was very badly burned about
the face, arms and body, and Miss Campbell
so severely injured that she cannot survive.
Her entire clothing, with the exception Of
her corsets and hose, was consumed, and her
whole body frightfully burned.

Democratic Reunion in New York.

The New York World is talking OF
Democratic reunion" in that city, through
the sclfabnegation Of Tammany and lr-
wing Halls, and reorganization under
the auspices of Mr. Develin's committee.
The World further says:
All that is needed is that each and all of
the existing "halls'' and organizations should
give way and make room for free, fair and
honest expression Of Democratic opinion by
the several primaries OF the city and coun-
ty. If such an expression of Democratic
opinion cannot be obtained from the Demo
cratic voters of New York, or if that opinion
being expressed cannot be carried into effect
by county Democratic organization, 1t will
simply he because there is no such thing as a
Democratic party in this city which is entitled
to the loyalty and the support of voters who
condemn the Republican party.
If a "reanion" depends upon the volun
tary AMUSEMENT Of the adhereuts of Tilden
aud Kelly, VIC fear the chances of such
result are very slim. We have but slight
faith in the selfseeking so-called Democ-
racy of New York city, whose normal con-
dition is that of discord and utter selfish
ness

The treasury, -he-says, is in "a better-con-

ces in, the year 1879 were 81 ,857 ,576.37;

O,11O.4O. This Improvement in the
revenue is due principally to increased re-
ceipts from registers of wills, collateral in
heritances and commission tax, $67, $780,

Tertiary paid 13,oO1.86, an increase over

of the State against Baltimore city paid
S10,652.05.
The act of 1878, imposing tax of one
and a half cents on the 500, to be applied
to interest and sinking fund of the treasu-
ry relief loan, had produced at the end OF
the fiscal year 1879 total of 500, BOB
G2, of which, after paying interest on the
loan, S69,O29.62 accrued to the sinking
fund for this debt. This sum has been
invested in the purchase of bonds of the
State.
The repeal of the bounty laws, the
Comptroller says, is source of conSratu
lation to the treasury. Last year S69, 57S
were paid out under these laws, which
sum will hereafter be saved to the State.

New Political Developments.

Things are not altogether Colour de rose
in the Republican household. Mr.. Gar
field has exhibited some signs of selfas-
sertion, if the quid names report truly,
that were hardly looked for in some quar-
ters, aud which are consequently politi-
cal surprise. The New York letter to the
Philadelphia Ledger, of January Sd, says:
- The new year begins with bad outlook
for the political "bosses" Following on the
heels of the Democratic overthrow of "Boss"
Kelly, we have now what is substantially the
Republican overthrow of 'Boss'' Conkling.
The brief editorial from the New York Iri-
buRe, which was telegraphed to this morning s
Ledger, is accepted here as notification from
President-elect Garfield that he intends to
manage as we'll as he can without the distln-
guished Senator from New York. 1t is well
known here that Mr.. Conkling had set his
heart upon getting into the Treasury Depart
ment candidate of his own, who is leading
banker here, but Mr.. GarGeld's intimation
that the best thing the new administration
charge of the Navy, is considered by Mr..
Conkling's friends as but little less than a
formal affront The gossip at the clubs is
that Mr. Conkling will now exert all his in
fuence to have the eminent banker alluded
to elected to the United States Senate, in Or
der that he may be in position to constrain
the ADMINISTRATION to be more deferential to the
wishes of the New York "Boss." Mr.. Conk-

Maryland Tobacco Inspection.

We have received from b. Duke Bond,
ESQ. one of the most extensive and sue
cessful tobacco planters of Calvert county,
in this State, an able and exhaustive ar
ticlc on the Maryland tobacco inspection, in
reply to the recent letter from Secretary
Eyarts to Gov. Hamilton, inclosing COM
nunieation from the u. s. Consul at Bre-
men, against the tobacco inspection in this
State. The letter of Mr.. Bond will ap-
pear ia the next issue of the ADVOCATE,
and will attract very general attention.
After reading this letter, we think the
Judgment Of the pablo will be, that the
Consul at Bremen, Secretary Evarts and
Gov. Hamilton, have each something to
learn on this subject
