BLAOKLEG PHILOSOPHY--R1BS
PRAYER.
Gods of this valley, hills and mines,
Unto NY wishes lend thine ear,
A poor blackleg now stoops to beg
Some favor crumbs and smiles sincere,
8 You'll never rue it.
Shades of darkness, tarry with me,
obstruct those rays of social light
oh let me dwell In cave or cell
Close by the edge dragged night,
1t suits my nature.
In social schisms let me revel
Until my twilight heavss in view;
What signifies those labor ties
When animation bids adieu
To social progress?
Shades of Nelo and the Caesars,
With pity view scabby scab
Berelt of fame and common shame,
And only bent for filthy grab
A high-bred feature.
I want more cars to dig and load;
I'm biggest digger on the hill;
The boss and came from Dairye;
I've only got my cars to fill;
Whitelegs be silent.
Venus, Mars and Gsorgium Sidus,
You 500 the value Of this clay;
Still found at home seldom roam,
I'm quite planet in my way,
Or q sly bowwow.
/ gaze with wonder and surprise
On asteroids who cloud this vale;
Such blatherakite will pirate and write
And work extensions on the gale
Ofretrogression.
Jupiter, hear my noisy groans,
Don't, don't leave me broken-hearted,
Or by old Pluto, I'll enter suit,
When once I'm fairly started
For birthstone quarters.
Stern gravitstion, hold me fast,
Lest to the moon quickly fly.
With social hate, Pm filled to date,
You shall all know bye and bye,
A brazen blackleg.
Progressive digger, write with care,
You think I'm Rab, now, sir, beware,
I'll show you game and blackleg fame
Eclipsing all that devil dare,
Described by Milton.
Gods of Egypt, bid thy serpents
Bite ell those knights throughout the creek
Scotch and Irish, let them perish,
Then boarded vengeance / will wIeak
On all their wounded.
Ye powers of dar kness, hurry fast,
Gehsnna brilliants, hear my cry,
Old scsbby chief, you must be brief,
And crush thcm dead before die,
Iwant more plaudits.
But should you fail to grant this boon
I'll surely call on direction Tom
That scabby lord, now much abhorred-
Will grant free kleek till get home
9ft.' To blackleg city.
RoUGH RAB. 1000.

A FRIEND OF THE MINER.

When first I saw miner, boys,
was taken by surprise,
I always thought they knew no joys
But people surely lies
Fer often have heard 1t said
BY certain class offools-
That they had no heart and had no head
But were like drove Of mules.
80 CHORUS.
But I've found by experience,
Among this class Of men,
Hearts as true. and as solid sense, a
As you'll find in the upper ten"
Go into any miners home
And there you'll surely see
Intelligence in every form,
And happy family.
One thing that puzzled mo at first
Was the talk the miners use,
Twas crosscuts, headings, bottoms, breast
Cap-pieces, props, roof loose,
And gobs, ribs End crossbars too,
Air courses, mudholes, plyes,
Sprays and shoes, and fare you through r
Black damp did me surprise.-CHo.
And when first went in mine
was bothered for while
My first attempt was not 80 fine,
1t caused them all to smile;
But by degrees learned the use
Of the shovel, wedge and pick
And now all kinds of work refuse,
Except mining on the creek. : CHo.

Three Notable Men.
Washington Republic.

Washington Republic.
Three men were sworn as members of
the House of Representatives on the It'll
of December. 1863, whose lives have been
full of condolences These men were
William Il. Allison, James G. Blaine and
James \ Garfield. One was born in 1929.
the second in 1890 and the last named in
1881. From the very day they first took
the oath they became fast friends. and
that friendship has not been marred or
broken to the present day by any unkind
word, thought or deed. They were all
born on farm. all taught school, all
studied law, and all came from the lower
house OF Congress. and all were promoted
to the Senate. OF the three, the oldest
is much the Youngest in appearance. In
deed, Mr.. Allison, though - years of age
might easily be taken for 40 while the
other two look old as they are. Mr.. AL
lison, personally. is Il singularly hand
some man. For years he was known as
the handSOmest man in Congress- and he
looks not day older than he did fifteen
years ago. His hair which is very abun-
dant, and of a dark brown color. has
scarcely 4 gray thread in it, and in his
closely trimmed whiskers Che wears no
moustache) there are few gray hairs. His
complexion is as fair as a schoolgirls $, his
cheeks are red his nose is large, his fore
head broad, high and protruding, his
eyes are dark brown or hazel. his face
free from wrinkles. and as winning Il
smile as ever won the favor of Il sweet
heart almost constantly lights up this
young face. His figure is of medium
height, say five feet ten inches. and of
excellent proportion. His weight is
about hundred and sixty pounds. lie
dresses in extremely good taste, and looks
to be exactly what lie is. every inch the
Senator and gentleman. His manners are
kindly and winning. his voice is sympa-
tiletic and his habits are those OF unre-
hitting work.

COX SITS DOWN ON McLANE.

The River and IIarbor appropriation is
one of those gigantic frauds which Con-
gress annually passes, for the improve
ment of harbors that have no commerce.
and rivers that are navigable only for
canoes. The appropriation this year
reaches over ten millions of dollars, and
is one of the biggest log-rolling schemes
ever perpetrated upon a patient people.
Under the Democratic fraud-cry of econ
omy, the salaries of poor clerks and mes
sengers have been cut down ten or twelve
dollars per month, and yet millions of
dollars are annually squandered for So
called improvements, which amount
really to open robbery of the National
Treasury. OF the money thus to be voted
out of the Treasury, hundreds of thOus-
ands, probably millions, of dollars will
be squandercd on alleged improvements
of so-called creeks and rivers, which no
amount of Improvement > would make
navigable even for canoes. In some
streams in the South more money is ex-
pended in 4 year for such "improve-
ments than would pay for every pound
of freight that would be transported if
the streams could be made navigable
Several years ago an officer of engineers
reported that the improvement of one Of
these streams i'll South Carolina, to make
it navigable for ''pole" boats, would
cost as much as it would to build and
equip railroad along the bank Of the
stream. The improvement of one of the
streams in Virginia for which appropria-
lions are annually made will. it is said,
cost from s25, 900 to $4,000 mile, and
when the work is completed the stream
will float nothing larger than a fiat float
On Monday last the eye of the whole
country was on Mr.. Reagan, the chair
man of the Committee OH Commerce.
who, having reported the bill, moved
suspension of the rules to get it before
the House at once. The motion requires
, a two-thirds vote. and to the credit of
Mr.. Cox. of New York. the swinde was
mercilessly exposed.
1t was a terrible exposure of the Com
mittee on Commerce, when he showed
that six-tenths Of the $40, 900, 600 appro-
priated were to be spent in the States
represented by members of that commit
tee. That told the whole story 1t was
a case of reciprocal jobbing. at the cost of
the people at large.
( Mr.. McLane. of Maryland, a member
of this jobbng committee, felt the stings
of Mr.. Coy's arrows and was imprudent
enough to interrupt the readiest man in
the House, whereupon Mr.. Cox convulsed
the House and crushed Mr. McLane by
( replying: = never knew it to fail that
when this bill is attacked in the House
the man who jumps up in the air and
| brings his head against the escutcheon of
his State painted on the glass ceiling is
sure to be found serving on the Commit
/ tee on Commerce.
So Mr.. Cox, with the help of fifty Re-
publican members. and of thirty-tive
! Democrats and Grcenbackers. managed
| to check the passage of the distended
| Appropriation bill, which failed to get
the two-thirds vote required.

A SENATORIAL INNOVATION

Since the Senate, one day last week,
appeared in the attitude of body of ami
able and sensible Legislators, solely de-
Sirous of framing just and wise resolu-
tion providing for the counting of the
electoral votes, it has experienced re-
lapse. On Monday the extremity of re-
action was reached when the fiery and
fluent Mr.. Butler, of South Carolina. un-
dertook to administer public flashing of
Mr.. Conkling, for a speech made by the
latter over five months ago. We had
supposed that the statute of limitations
as TO campaign oratory, however bitter
or malignant, began to be effectuai after
al election bets had been settled.
Mr.. Butler thinks otherwise, OF he
would not have nursed his wrath for five
months and then let it out on the floor of
the Senate. after everybody had forgotten
the speech which was so slow an irritant.
Whether or not the country will APP
prove of this extension of the privilege
10 Senators of yituperative personalities,
from the old and recognized cases of sud
den and unexpected excitements and af-
fronts, to the cold-blooded and deliberate
duel of barbed and poisoned epithets-
remains to be seen.

COUNTING THE ELECTORAL VOTE

Wednesday being the day appointed
FOR counting the electoral vote, the Sen
ate repaired to the Hall of the House of
Representatives and proceeded to make
the count i'll accordance with the concur
lent resolution adopted a few days ago.
Under the Morgan resolution the DUTY
of the President of the Senate is limited
to opening the certificates of election of
the several States in the presence of the
TWO Houses, and to announcing the re-
~ult in each case after the tellcrs appoint
Cd by the two Houses had counted and
eported the votes east for each candi-
late. The certificates were opened alpha
iietically, beginning with Alabama and
closing with Wisconsin. The certificate
u Georgia, not being cast on the day ap-
POINTED by law, was laid aside uncounted
until it was shown whether the counting
N emitting the count would affect the
Jesuit of the election. When all was
completed, Senator Thurman made the
following announcement:

count, James A. Garfield has received

her Of Electors appointed" A similar
statement was made regarding the votes
for Vice President
Nice-Presdent Wheeler thereupon an
1iaunced that James A. Garfield of Ohio,
and Chester a. Arthur. of New York,
saving received majority of the votes
of the whole number of Electors APP
pointed, were duly elected President and
ice President of the United States, re
spectively. for four years, commencing
ON the 4th of March. 1881.
The announcement was received with
loud applause from the Republicans. The
ice President and Senators then with
