GOD IN THE CITY.

Not there, alone, where rivers now,
Serenely on through pastures green,
Where lilies ope their lids Of snow,
And red lobelias flame between
Lush grasses; no. not there, alone,
Where the fresh .lchen paints the stone,
and banks with vines are overgrown,
And golden-rod IN bright array
Gilds the glad away
But here, along the city street,
Scant-shaded from the nOonday heat,
And pressed by thousand hurrying feet
Here, 700, great Nature hath her own,
And is not here nor there alone.
The ocean beats against its shore
With solemn murmur evermore;
The cragS in unmorel grandeur stand.
Carved by Gods hand,
Above the hills, above the deep,
Fair skies their changeful draper!eS sweep,
We do not guess-tls written fair
That God is there.
Yet, when feei the ebb and low,
The giant heartbeat pulsing slow.
OF great city-'tiS the roar
Of waves yet deeper on the shore
or Time; and in its rhythm hear.

Attempt TO Blow Up the Lord Mayors
Mansion.

London, March 17.-At midnight a
policeman on duty at the Mansion house
observed fire on the ground near the
hall of the lord mayors official resi-
dence, and found wooden box, with
fuse connected, to which some lighted
paper had been recently applied. The
officer extinguished the fire and took the
box to the police station, when it was
found that it contained about 10C
pounds of gunpowder with fuse in the
midst of it. No arrests, and no clue to
the perpetrators.
The lord mayor says that the explo.
sion would probably not have injured
the Mansion house, but would have
damaged the Egyptian hall and the ad.
jacent private houses and entailed Sc.
rious loss of life. He himself, he said,
was not at home at the time. One ac-
count says that an Irish newspaper was
found among the packings of the pow.
der.
All the special dispatches state that
Gen. Wood informed the newspaper
correspondents that at yesterdays pro.
longed meeting, at which all the mem
bers Of the Boer triumvirate were pres

ment were to great extent accepted,
the Beers reserving one or two points
for further consideration.

BIG SENSATION IN OMAHA.
A Lady School Teacher Eiopes with
One OF Her Scholars.

A Lady School Teacher Eiopes with
One OF Her Scholars.
Omaha, March ia decided sensa-
tion has been created here by the an
nouncement of the elopment of Miss
Ellen M. Stratten, teacher in the Gen.
tral public school, with Chas. Duke, her
favorite pupil. She is about thirty-five
years old and he is not yet eighteen.
She has always been regarded as fine
teacher and accomplished lady. The
boy is son of E. T. Duke, prominent
hardware merchant. Young Duke has
for some time past been in the habit of
visiting her at her room evenings to
take extra tuition in his studies, SO it is
claimed, and the result was that they
fell in love to such an extent that elop-
ment seemed to them to be necessary.
Miss Stratton has, within the past three
or four weeks, been preparing for this
event by borrowing several hundred
dollars from her sister teachers in sums
ranging from $25 to 800. She also
left unpaid several large sized store
bills, board bills, etc., and her creditors
to-day endeavored to find something to
attach, but nothing could be found OF
any great value. Miss Stratton was
well known here and no one would ever
have suspected anything of the kind
from her. The eloping couple have
gone to Chicago.

Democratic Threats to Fillibuster
Against Reorxanization.
Washington, March 1.-THE repub-
licans will nominate Gorham for secre-
tary Of the senate, and Manistree, Of
Virginia. a readjuster friend Of Malone,
for sergeant-at-arms. A number of
democratic senators declared their pur-
pose in caucus yesterday to fight against
change In the officers of the senate.
This proposition was antagonized by
Bayard. Hampton and others, who in
sisted that the best policy is to submit
quietly to entire republican control.
Hill and Brown, of Georgia, Vest,
Jones and others insist that the demo-
cratic senators must not submit to
everything; that would discourage the
democratic party. They said they would
let the committees through, but avowed
their purpose to fillibuster against the
change of officers. Davis, of Illinois,
when requested to absent himself and
not vote when The fight begins, refused,
and he said he would vote. Bayard
and number Of other democrats de-
clare that they will not fillibuster, but
1t looks now as if majority of the
democratic senators may, without any
united action, make a fight; but it can
not be made very effective.
Chief Justice Cation, of the Illinois
supreme bench, is here, urging the san.
ate to reject Stanley Matthews, on the
ground that he is not resident of the
circuit, and the people of Wisconsin,
Illinois and Indiana do not want an
outsider put ever them again as United
States judge. II Matthew'S rejection
can be secured, either Judge Hewitt or
Judge Isham, Of Chicago, will be urged
for the nomination.

IVA, March II, 1881.
The settlers of IVA on the LIST inst.
had quite an enjoyable evening on the
occasion Of Mr.. Baeon's departure from
the Laramie river. The fete consisted
of grand ball and supper. The set
tiers turned out en- masse to testify by
their presence their respect for Mr.. and
Mrs. Bacon, who have been among the
first settlers of Laramie river, when the
diabolical red man welded the murder
GUS tomahawk with relentless fury.
The ball opened at Z p. m, and such
an exhuberance of hilarity is seldom
witnessed among the rustics of the Lar
annie. Supper was spread at a. m, +,
and to say the least, the table fairly
groaned under the load of delieacies,
and all arose from the table thoroughly
satisfied that their hostess was well up
in the culinary art. The music was
excellent, and Of an ever changing va
riety, from the instrumental, like the
one to which Jericho succumbed, to the
delicate warble of the female voice. Our
excellent floor manager, Mr.. Sherman,
by his wit and humor, kept the house
in roars of laughter. All separated at
an early hour, highly pleased with the
evenings entertainment, and wishing
Mr.. and Mrs. Bacon many happy days
in their new home on the La Bonte.
Stock is dong well here now; the
fgreen grass is making a good show.

On motion of Pendleton the senate
adjourned, it being unlikely that there
would be a vote on organization to-

Blaine and Conkling are using their
influence to have an extra session
called. Thus far the president and

the session. but have rather opposed it.
The whole matter will come before the
cabinet at an early day and win be de-
cided.

A Number OF Applicants for the POSI-
tfon.
Washington, March 17.-There is a
very earnest contest over the governor
ship of New Mexico. The commission
Of the present governor, Wallace, has
two or three years vet to run, but there
have been a good many difficulties under
his administration, and advantage is
being taken of them to urge his re-
moval. The Catholics, who comprise
nine-tenths OF the people Of the terrific
ry, are said to be opposed to him.
Charles Ewing, brother of Thomas
Ewing, but an active republican, a
resident in this city, formerly from
Ohio, is q candidate for the position,
and has very strong support. Ewing,
although Catholic, is an ardent repub-
lican, and it is believed that his ap.
pointment would be especially accepta-
BILE to the people of New Mexico on
account Of his religious faith.
Gov. Sheldon, an intimate friend Of
the p resident, and lieutenant colonel of
his old regiment, who has been spoken
Of for the position of private secretary,
and also as q candidate to fill the vacan-
cy on the court Of claims, caused by the
appointment of Judge Hunt to the cab
met, is also understood to be willing to
accept the governorship of New Mex
leo.
Sidney Post, of Galesburg, Illinois,

the place, although his application has
not been filed.

New York, March 16.-The Com
mercial says: 1t is stated by persons
very close in confidence with Gen.
Grant that in consequence of his Mexi-
can engagement he will have nothing
more to do with the Worlds fair of 'S3.
1t is not positively known whether he
has sent in his resignation, but as he
leaves Monday next tor Mexico it is
more than probable that he will present
formal document TO the commissions
ers before leaving New York. It is
understood that Gen. Grant wishes the
enterprise every success, but, for rea-
sons best known to himself, does not
feel inclined to be connected personally
with it.

James r. Keene is going abroad the
latter part of the same month. This is
considered as indication that the mar
ket will not feel the influence of their
support for some time.
Information was received from Wash
ington pointing to an extra session Of
congress. The effect of call for an
extra session is variously estimated BY
the operators, many thinking it would
have depressing influence, while the
Gould people claim that it would have
a favorable effect.

At the request of the family of Gen.
Upton, Sec. Lincoln has requested Gen.
Mcdonald to send the deceased officers
remains east, and to detail two officers
to accompany the body to New York.
Gen. Upton's remains will be brought
from Presidio 20 San Francisco on Sat-
urday, escorted by troops from the
stations around the bay. 1t will be met
by the entire second brigade N. G. G.,
and the coffin escorted to Oakland,
where it will be sent east on Saturday,
with guard of honor from the 4th ar
tillery.
Gen. Forsythe on the Late Gen.
Upton.
Chicago, March 17.-On learning of
the death of Gen. Upton, a reporter
called upon Gen. Forsythe, at General
Sheridan's headquarters. The general
spoke of his dead friend not only as a
comrade of whom any one might be
proud, but as a man in the fullest and
proudest acceptance of the term. He
said that from his very boyhood Gen.
Upton seemed to be guided by sound
principles and good judgment When
a mere lad he took up strongly the
abolition ideas of that day and became
an outspoken advocate of emancipation.
His father was farmer in moderate
circumstances, living near Batavia,
New York, and young Upton was one
of large family, and knew that he had
his own way to make in the world. Ac-
cordingly, having determined to secure
an education, he went to Oberlin, be-
lieving that that institution best reflect
ed his sentiments and ideas. While at
home during vacation, however, con.
gressional appointment to the military
academy fell vacant, and young Upton
applied in person to the member from
his district for it. His application was
successful, and he entered West Point
IN 1856, where, by his cool, outspoken
defense Of his ambitious ideas. he drew
down upon himself the wrath of the
southern element, then so conspicuous
at the military academy. His convic-
tions were so strong that in spite of all
that.he was called upon to pass through,
he never for an instant swerved from
his ideas of what he thought was right,
and long before the spring of '61 he was
regarded, even by the southern ele-
ment, with respect, Notwithstanding
both the man and his principles were
so cordially disliked. The army officers
here are full of "reminiscences, and law
ish of praise for the unfortunate sol.
dier.
