RANDALL'S VAEEDlCCeRY,

Upon the final adjournment of the house
of representatives on the 4th inst, Speaker
Randall took occasion to refer to the cOndi-
ton of the country when the democratic par
tY took control Of the house, and It's condition
at the present time. He said that in 1874, at
ter a long interval, the democratic party OBJ
tanned control Of the house. 1t had to face a
condition of things unparalleled in the his
tory OF the country. Labor was unimployed {:
trade was depressed and a wide spread gloom
existed over every interest OF the country. 1t
stopped extravaganza; established economy
in the administration of the government and
restored confidence in all branches of bust
ness. 1t now beholds the republic launched
upon a career Of uneXampled prosperity. 1t
found gold at a premium and the notes of the
government at q discount. Ii leaves the
credit of the United States in the money mar
ketsso the world unimpaired. 1t has witness
ed the removal of sectional d~istrust, and the
restoration Of perfect unity within our Dor
ders. 1t has given birth to an era of frater-
nal concord. Men of all classes and of every
section seem now to strive to serve the CON-
mon veal. With the expenditures of the
government lessened and the payment of i'll
terest reduced, the browning triunr RI of the
democratic administration was to effect the
funding of the public debt by the Issuance OF
3 per cent bonds.
The speaker in referring to himself said
81 am sincerely grateful to the members OF
the house on every side for the vote of thanks
with which they favore" me. l am sensible
of how much 1 I'VE to the generous forbear.
ance ank active good will of my fellow men,
bers. Thrice elected to an exalted position
it 'uay be an exhibition of personal pride 70,
ne to remark than in all these years of SER
vice no decision of the chair has been over
ruled. But it is of higher import, the renown
of which is more enduring to the house, thai
it's fair fame for that entire period is unstalll
ed. Members have differed widely, yet man
ifestly acting from a deep conviction of duty
thew have each mutually won the esteem o.
the other. AS for myself l shall retire from
the speakership with no unkind feeling to

safe return to your homes it remains for mt
in obedience to the mandate of the constltu
ton to declare this house adjourned without

TsIE SEA AND THE MOON.
BY FRANK j.. ~OTTARSoN.

The Sea fell in love wife thh Moon;
The Moon only laughed at the Sea,
And went on, turning midnight to noon,
And silvering hilltop and lea.
..L.ook down, lovely Moon" said the Sea;
Behold your own beautiful face;
IT'S so pure and so charming to me
III my heart l have given it place.
She looked, with a flush of disdain;
Her glorious image was there;
And she knew-for a woman is vain.
That the image was spotleSs and fair.
Away sped the Moon in her ~splendor;
But oft and again she would turn,
With glance growing more and more tender,
To the Sea where her image did burn.
There trembled the silvery illusion;
Nay, Moon, do not Qulver nor start:
It's the tremor of Loves soft confusion,
The thrOb of the Seas faithful heart.
And the Moon would remember and ponder
The vision she saw in the wave.
AS away round the world she would wander,
And she knew that the sea was her slave.
And month after month when returning.
In her full she would glory again.,
Her face in the ocean still burning
a the Moon a slight feeling of pain.
Still the Sea followed sorrowing after,
His breast swelling over with love,
His signs waking only the laughter
OF the moon sailing queenly above.
Though ages ON ages have persisted,
Still Love sings The changeless old tune,
And with passion still faithfully cherished,
The Sea follows after the Moon.
Follows after till cruel shores stay him,
Then breaks his great heart with a sigh
For the FateS ever mock and delay him
Whose aim is unwise and too high.

John Davis, a South Carolina negro, had
a pretty mulatto wife, and Hank Johnson,
also a negro, fell in love with her. She
did not encourage Hank and he went to q
voudoo conjurer for a charm to touch her
heart. The conjurer, after mature reflec-
ton, decided that the charm should con-
sist of some fox hair, beeswax, a brakes
foot, and little sand from Mrs. Davis
shoe, all sewed up in a small bag and worn
by Hank over his heart. At the end of &
week the woman confessed love for him.
but refused to separate from her husband
on his account. The conjurer made a
charm to ALLEVIATE Davis from his wife, but
it had no effect. Then he gave johnson 3
charmed bullet with which to murder Da-
Wis, and new bag of scraps warranted to
protect him from conviction by any jury
for the crime. johnson killed Davis as
directed, and during the trial, which has
just been held at Columbia, he had perfect
confidence in the conjures's assurance that
a verdict of guilty could not possibly be
rendered. The jurors, however, were not
hindered by the voudooism, and the muir
derer is to be hanged. though he and many
of his superstitious friends believe that he
will miraculously escape the halter yet

Comment as to the probable treatment
which Arthur will administer to Sherman
is general and also unanimous. The
latest opinion seems to be that President
Arthur has not forgotten John Sherman's
high-handed treatment of him when col
lector of the port of New York, is evident
from an occurrence which, however trifiing
in itself, is highly significant of Arthur's
frame of mind anent Sherman. Mr.. Rule
has been postmaster of Knoxville As
mans nomination at Chicago, and was
present as delegate. President Garfield
sent his name to the senate for reappoint-
ment, but Mr.. Arthur now sends in the
Sherman could not save Rule in Tennessee
and will be powerless to protect his friends
in Ohio. Congressman Young will have
the influence with Arthur that Sherman
an audience with the president touching
Cincinnati appointments, and has further
appointment for next week. Sherman,
who is politician through and through,
and understands fully the important part
the ability to secure offices for henchmen
has upon the personal fortunes of sena-
tor, has expressed to Young the hope that
they would be able to agree as to the
patronage, but Young has replied that he
has doubts of their ability to do so. 1t is
cold spell for Sherman.

Senator Mcdonald viii not make any
friends, nor will he increase the respect in
which he is held by the people, by oppos-
ing the confirmation of Colonel Dudley as
Commissioner of Pensions. By his energy
and vigilance Colonel Dudley prevented the
democrats from capturing the state OF
Indiana by fraud last year, and instead of
opposing him, Senator Mcdonald should
regret that his party made Colonel Dudley
action necessary.-Iafer Ocean.
Colonel Dudley is now passing as next
to Dorsey the saviour of Indiana. The
whole of the matter simply is that he used
his position as United States Marshal in a
most outrageous manner. He made a
loud pretence about watching the South
ern border line of the state so that no
democratic votes could be run in from
kentucky, but left entirely exposed the
northern and western boundaries over
which republican votes were run to large
extent He used his office for purely par
tizan purposes, and his only claim on the
position he counts is that he manipulated
a federal Office so as to help secure repab-
lican majority in his state

pearance in public life, but he promptly
turned up as collector Of the port of Bos-
ton. Byand by he quarreled with john
son, then President, and left the warm
precincts of the custom house, but soon
found rest in his old chair in the senate,
twelve years.
This steady march from post to post in
the public service has hardly parallel in
this country; and yet, in his official career
of nearly half century, Mr. Hamlin never
made an argument, or delivered speech,
or wrote report on any subject, which was
not below mediocrity, To what, then,
must his prolonged success be attributeds
He left the political party to which he be-
longed when it fell into a minority and had
nothing more to give. He went over to the
other side when it rose to majority and
had honors to bestow. He followed office
seeking as a business, and stuck to it
through life.
When his term IN the Senate expired last
March, and Eugene Hale took his place,
the people of Maine thought they had fin
ally got Hamlin under. But Hale, fearing
that some day he would enter the chamber
and find his venerable predecessor in his
seat, shaking his hoary locks at him, beg
ged Blaine to send him out of the country.
So the Secretary of state despatched Ham
lin to the land of the orange and the tur-
tie. Long may he wave.

The bitter feeling of England toward
Ireland is well expressed by the Pal Mall
Gazette when it says:
s'As neither Mr.. O'Brien nor Mr.. Quinn
has participated in public meetings their
arrest is naturally taken to mean that the
government will tolerate no form of intimi-
dation, however indirect. We may even
infer that the Castle win construe too Wig
orous criticism of it's action as intimida
ton. The recent proclamation leads to
the same inference. The land league is to
be suppressed forcibly, that is the long and
short of the matter. The violent suppress
sion of the league, which has never yet
been declared illegal. is only the beginning
of the task which lies before the governe
ment. If the land act fails to bring even
temporary peace, then Great Britain will
have nothing less than to frame wholly
new system of government for Ireland. 1t
is 1ntolerable, even impossible, that we can
continue to govern by a series of spas
modic c0at1s detat. Poison may be a use
full drug in certain emergencies, but a
nation cannot Five on political poison for
its daily food-not even Ireland"
1t is proposed to start a fund for the
maintenance of the state prisoners. Mem
beers of the league claim that Mr.. Arthur
O'Connor having been recently thoroughly
instructed in the management of the whole
of the affairs of the league, his escape will
enable the organization to continue.

Our present minister to Spain has had a
curious and truly American life. The Sun
gives what can be called his biography:
Hannibal Hamlin, whom the senate has
just confirmed as Minister to Spain, is tic
rarest specimen of a chronic ofiiceholder
now alive. He was chosen member of
the Legislature of Main in 1885. All through
the intervening forty-six years he has
scarcely been out of Office day. He was
long in the legislature, of which he was
several times speaker. He served few
terms in the lower House of Congress, and
was then elected senator. He left the SEN
ate to become governor. He threw up
that Office and returned to the senate,
whence he was advanced TO the Vice-Pres-
idency When be retired from the CAPT
toll and gave place TO Andrew Johnson,
everybody supposed that it was his last APP

In a late interview, prominent demo-
crat gave the following opinion as
to the coming election in New York
State
''What majority do you expect in New
York city?'
Fifty thousand" was the immediate
answer, 'and $4,000 in Brooklyn; and
the state, outside of the city, won't give
the republicans more than $4,000"
But the republicans allow you only
10000 in New York and 5000 in Brook
lyn."
We'll, then they will carry the state by
1900 or 5000 if their calculations are cor
rect; but think know as much about it
as any republican, and tell you that the
majority in New York city is good for
$4,000, and in Kings for $4,000"
'eAnd you think the majority outside
will not exceed 50,000r"
81 am certain of it."

In regard to the attitude of Sherman in
asking for the report of the management
of the contingent fund of the treasury de-
partment, the Globe Democrat says: "1n
reality there were two reports. One was
all words. words about the business meth
DDS of the department. The other, which
has been SO far suppressed, got down to
business, and, it is believed, recorded some
of the secret scandals of the goody -goody
about the possible, if not actual discoveries
have decidedly ugly sound"

Window has announced himself as q
be some objection to the offer. Advices
from Minnesota show that strong senti-
ment has been aroused among the repub
lican members of the Legislature against
the return of Mr.. Window to the Senate,
and the breach that was made between the
two factions of the party at the recent re-
publican state convention threatens to
broaden. The long conflict between the
old Ramsey clique, which so long con-
trolled the party in Minnesota, and the
young republican wing, headed by ex-
Governor Davis, was brought to an issue
in that convention, and the result was
a sweeping victory for the Davis clique.
Since then they have been bending their
efforts to abolish the caucus system in the
selection of candidates for Senator and
claims to have secured enough votes to
gain this end. As Mr.. Window opposed
the nomination of General Hubbard, the
present republican candidate for Governor
the young republicans are after his scalp.
They are Disguised with the action of Gen
eral Edgington in tamely stepping out of
Mr.. WINDOWS way and claim that if he
had any backbone he could easily secure
an election to the seat he now holds By
appointment. An effort will be made
when he arrives here on Monday, to look
up Mr.. WINDOWS interests to stiffen his
spinal column. 1t is the feeling among
many republicans that Mr.. WINDOWS pre-
vious successes have been due to acciden-
tai circumstances, and that Edgerton,
though a timid man, has more brains than
he. In case Edgerton will not consent
to be a candidate it is proposed to smash
the caucus and have an open fight. If no
caucus is held twenty-six out of twenty
eight democrats in Legislature have agreed
to unite with the anti Window republicans
in the election of some liberal and conser
vative- minded man. 1t is thought that
Ex-Governor ]. B. Wakefield will be the
choice of the combination. In case the
bow to King Caucus the dem
ocrats will give Colonel VIC. Crooks their
complimentary vote. The prospects now
are that there will be an open and lively
fight, and that it will be shown that Mr.
Window has no mortgage on q seat in the
Senate

serving the public welfare by such an en-

very willing for this comparison to be
made. Such resolution also illustrates
the growing tendency of the republican
