For the GUARDIAN.
TINE sh0WDR0P'S LESSON.
By n. v. HYPP.


Fair, beautiful snowdrop, fresh from the
bed,
Meath which is sleeping my idol, my dead
With your soft petals, with life all aglow--
You'll tell me the secret of death, know.
have asked the dead, but they would not
tell,
Though l kissed and beggedithem to break
the spell
Ha, hs, II; last the hidden have found,
Life that has slept aud risen from the
ground.
Didst the breath of thy presence stir the
lace
We folded over her beautiful face!
Was the brow as cold, and the breast as
still,
As when We laid her beneath the hill'
Didst the soft curls ripple still, as of old,
Over her bosom, lit rihglets of sold'
Didst the vestal-iire. of our love, still glow
Bright in her heart, when her life cbbcd
low'
o, speak, and | will hush each outer sense.
And listen with spirit, in calm suspense.
A word of the answer the breeze ne'cr
caught,
And this is the lesson the snowdrop Taught:
The lowest of life from its shell can wake,
Dwelis there in the highest, no power TO
break
From the guarded seal of the dismal tomb.
And to scatter its darkness and its gloom.
You hold in your hand "a rare flower seed,
The shape aud the color, you little heed;
You plant and tend it with every care,
For you know that germ is sleeping there,
Which the soft suns rays and the gentle
shower
Will waken to life u beautiful flower.
Who cares for the shell, when the flower
has ilownf
Who prizes the casket, without the stonei
The eyes are the windows where love shines
through
The lips. with warm kisses, whisper it too;
Eyes without lustrc, aud lips without tone
To echo again, the smiles of our own;
Heart unto heart, aud one throbbng alone,
Far better be hid meath the glist'ning
stone.
We love, not the cnsket, the empty she'll,
But the life and the lustrc, which in them
dwell.
The hue of the sky, the COO of the dove,
Are painted aud tuLed to the Keynote
Love.
/ 1t cannot die, nor sleep meath the sod,
For love is the motor. the smile of God.

President Garfield Tells a Story.

Washington Correspondence Providence Press.l
Perhaps the Presidents state of mind may
be discovered from a story lie told friend
who called upon him yesterday. In 1875,
when the Democrats organized the House of
Representatives for the first time after the
war, there was general clearing out of old
clerks to make places for the friends of Demo
cratic Congressmer. Two old attaches of the
House, who had held their places through ma
ny administrations, Mr.. Barclay, the journal
clerk, and DIR. Mahaffy, one of the reading
clerks, supposed that Congress could not get
along without them, and that they were not
therefore, in any danger of removal. Sitting
in their arm chairs in their Office
Gen. Garfield said, as they blew the smoke
FROM their cigars, they congratulated each
other: "Well it was to be expected
that these poor devils of under clerks
would lose their places, but we are solid. Ad-
ans, the new clerk of the House, will never be
fool enough to turn US out" But one day, as
unexpectedly as thunder from clear sky,
camo the announcement that even Barclay
and Mahaffy had been removed. Both men
Immediately put On their hats and went over
to Sanderson's in search of liquid consolation.
They drank confusion to Clerk Adams and the
whole Democratic party, and chuckled and
laughed as they called up in imagination the
inextricable tangle into which the business of
the House would get as soon as they left their
desks; and finally, when they were pretty full,
they started back to the capitol arm-n-arm
As they beat up against the wind across the
plaza, DIR. Mahaffy burst out into an immoder-
ate laugh. 81 shay, Barclay" said he, won't
it be good joke when they come to us on
their bended knees, and beg us to come back
and straghten things out?' Just then Bar
clay, who didn't seem to appreciate the joke
very much, stopped, Strengthening himself up,
and pointing to the Goddess OF Liberty on the
dome of the capital, as he shook his infrm fin
ger at it, said: "D'ye see her (hic), Mahaffy?
She totters she totters!

"For many years had suffered from a complaint
which the physicians called Gravel, had employed
some of the most noted doctors without obtaining

pleasant task keeping open house at the

Hitherto place has come to him unsolicited,
or, at least, he has never been compelled to
ask for it from the direct dispensers thereof.
The nomination or cleo ction has been made
inevitable by the course of events outside

the present case he has to solicit votes for
himself. He is the issue, and he must real
ize that if he is beaten the issue, whatever
it may be, is beaten along with him.

SIX thousand miles of railroad were actu-
ally constructed in the United States in
1SS0-a number only exceeded in the year
1871. In addition to these there are four
teen thousand other miles of railroad pro-
jected. In 1879 the number of miles of rail
road built was four thousand, seven hun
dred; in 1878 two thousand, six hundred,
and so on down to 1873, when the number
Of miles begins to increase again. Probably
some two hundred and fifty millions of dol
lars were put into railroads just before the
crash came in 1873.

heading, REV. DR.. Crosby's Great Sermon.
One Million Copies to be Circulated by Brew

sermon and can furnish unlimited copies, the
paper adds, "iou can afford to circulate his
sermon. HScirculation is ,corth more TO you
than money in Government bonds, and ,eW bear

This is the saloon keepers test of the value
of DR.. Crosby's effort, and is suggestive, as it
cannot be supposed that tine learned Doctor in

JUDGE JOHN 7. LUDELING has addressed
a letter to New Orleans paper in reference
to the recent assassination of his son, which
he closes thus: ''i have as much interest
in the prosperity of Louisiana as any one :,
and in having immigrants come here. But
we cannot change facts by denying their ex-
istence. A system of peonage and terrorism
exists here, which, if tolerated much longer,
will depopulate the parish. | and my sons,
as Republicans, have been opposed to this,
and we have, therefore, incurred the dis
pleasure of those who practically deny The
freedom of the negro. On account of polti-
cal prejudice engendered and existing here
against Republicans, crimes against them
can be committed with impunity, and there
fore they are encouraged
