THE BLUE ANDTHE GRAY.
~ the how of the Inland river

Bv the how Of the inland river
Whence the fleets of iron have fed,
Where the blades of tho grave grass culver
Asleep are the ranks of the dead,
Under the sod and the dew,
Waiting the judgment day;
Under the one, the Blue;
Under the other, the Gray.
These IN the robing of glory,
Those in the gloom Of defeat,
All with the battle blood CORY,
In the dusk of eternity meet;
Under the sod and the dew,
Waiting the judgment day;
Under the laurel, the Blue;
Under the willow. the Gray.
From the silence Of sorrowful hours
The desolate mourners 60,
Lovingly, laden with flowers,
Alike for the friend and the foe;
Under the sod and the dew,
Waiting the Judgment day;
Under the rose, the Blue;
Under the lilies, the Gray
So with an equal spiendor
The morning sun-rays fall
With touch impartia1ly tender
On the blossoms blooming for all;
Under the sod and the dew,
Waiting the judgment day;
Broidered with gold, the Blue;
MellOWeQ WIN gOlQ Gne GTay.
So, when the summer calleth
On forest and field of grain,
With an equal murmur falleth
The cooling drip OF the rain;
Under the sod and the dew,
Waiting the judgment day;
Wet with rain, the Blue;
Wet with rain, the Gray.
Sadly, but not with upbraiding:
The generous deed was done;
In the storm OF years now fading
No drawer battle was won;
Under the sod and the dew,
Waiting the judgment day;
Under the blossoms, the Blue;
Under the garlands, the Gray.
No more shall the war-cry sever,
Or the winding river be red;
They Danish onr anger forever
When they laural the graves Of our dead
Under the sod and the dew,
Waiting the Judgment day;
Love and tears, for the Blue;
Tears and love, for the Gray.

THE BARGAIN.

Which Scaled McManes to Cameron.
Philadelphia Evening Telegraph, Rep.
In the presidential contest at Chicago
he (CamerOn1 lost a good deal of his hold
upon the Philadelphia leaders, and in the
late legislative election not his, but his
opponents candidates we're elected. In
the fight for senator he needs their votes,
and with those who controlled
them he agreed to surrender into
their hands all the federal pat
ronage in Philadelphia except the navy
yard. That is to say. he traded all the
federal offices here for tho votes Of the
Philadelphia Republican delegation to the
General Assembly. The bargain was made
signed and sealed. Hence the Phila-
delphia members, whose votes are their
own, but the property Of the leaders
or "bOsses' here, who nominated and
secured their election, could not vote for
a Philadelphian for senator, but are com
PEELED to vote for the candidate who is per-
sonally and politically acceptable to Sena-
tor Cameron 1t is as true as that they
have votes that the votes of the Republi-
cnn city members of the Legislature have
been sold Out-and-out to Senator Cameron
in this contest by our local " bosses - and
it is that bargain and sale which may
make Don Cameron, son and heir to all
the political infamy and to the infamous
political devices OF Simon Cameron, mas.
ter of the people Of Pennsylvania, and able
to set at defiance the wishes and interests
of this great commonwealth and city, in
the determination to execute his own
wishes in the election Of senator of the
United States.

calities of the Harrisburg machine than
for narrow devotion to either party,
Democrats might secure a senator who
would reflect credit upon the state. This
is altogether correct and in strict ac-
cordance with the prevailing opinion
among the Democratic members OF the
House and Senate, and their eminent
constituents who are there in consulta-
ton with them. The party is very solid
in the purpose not to abandon Demo-
cratic principles nor sacrifice Democratic
candidates for a dishonorable or un-
worthy consideration. Thus far the
" anti-Ring" Republicans have shown
no disposition to proffer man who is
more distinguished for his opposition to
Republican rascalities than for his parti-
san devotion, and until they do SO the
Democrats will take great pleasure in
keeping the fight just where it now
stands.

TELEGRAPH MONOPLY.
The Consolidation IN "Oatlaw " Under On

Har,fahnr0 Patriot

The Consolidation IN "O0tlaW !" Under Our
Constitution.
Harrisburg Patriot.
To return to the great telegraph consoli-
dation job. There is one important phase
of this transaction which peculiarly con-
Germs the people of Pennsylvania. The
constitution of this state expressly declares
that mo telegraph company shall consol-
idate with, or hold controlling interest
in the stocks or bonds Of any other tele-
graph company owning a competing line,
or acquire, by purchase or otherwise, any
other competing line of telegram" The
Americana Union telegraph company, created
since this constitution was framed, and
enjoying in Pennsylvania all the protec.
tion it could give, mas in deliberate vio-
latiOn of its provisions consolidated its
stock with the Western Union. Both
guilty. The present organization carries
fiance of the organic law Of the com
outlaw in this state. In this situation
the question presses itself upon the ex-
ecutve authority and Legislature as to
law ranging within its border. or reduce it
W SuUuioSiOu W UuC pIOSISIOAS VI thC OOh-
stitution. How this is to be done is for
the consideration Of the servants to whom
the people have entrusted the duty Of en-
forcing the laws.
In this question every citizen Of the
commonwealth is concerned, not only to
maintain the integrity of the constitu.
tion, but to prevent the means of general
business and social intercourse from be-
coming, under the control of gigantic
and irresponsible monopoly, a luxury of
the few, instead OF what 1t is now, a
necessity Of the many. At the head Of
this consolidation job figure the names of
men, the GOulds and Vandcrbilts, whose
wealth and power and unscrupulous
methods of employing them have for a
lolg time excited the anxiety Of the
thinking portion of the public. Step by
step they are absorbing the entire carry
ing trade of the country. With the
power to dictate the rates of freight they
hold at their mercy the business of the
people. They can raise at will the prices
of the necessarics of life by owning and
controlling all the means of transportation.
BY this gigantic telegraph consolidation
they have raised an issue with the people
of Pennsylvania in deliberately violating
their constitution, and this issue will de.
termine whether the monopoly is greater
than the constitution. It will determine
whether the rights and interest of the
masses of the people shall remain secure
under the asis of the constitution which
they have ordained, or shall be at the
mercy of Ar arrogant combination.

Several months ago George Lawrence,
who lived with his family on the farm of
Thomas Simpson, nine miles west of
Springville, ILL.,, and worked as a farm
hand, was given a diseased pig by MI.
Simpson. After keeping the animal sew
eral weeks he killedit. Soon after he and
his wife and children became very sick,
and DR.. Price, of this city, pronounced
their disease to be from the effects
of eating the deceased pork. The limbs OF
MI. and Mrs. Lawrence were terribly swOl-
len. These Of the latter burst in several
places. Modification set in, and in a few
days she died. suffering the most intense
agony. Mr.. Lawrence is now lying at the
point of death. His body is swollen to al
most twice its usual size. His skin is de-
scribed as presenting white appearance
and being as hard as stone. He is unable
to move without enduring excruciating
agony, and when touched on any part Of
the body screams from pain. The chill
iren had eaten but little of the meat, and
so far have escaped its effect. Drs. Price
aud Warren sent some portions of the
meat to Philadelphia for analysis, and the
experts report it to be alive with tricll-
