A JUST CRITYCLSlN.

The Washington Post publishes 1
vigorous editorial on Certain Demo
cratic Blunders, and handles the Dem
oeratic Congressional Independents anC
absentecs without gloves. BY indie
pendents 1t refers to Stephens, Speei
and FELTON,, Of Georgia. The Post says
In almost all the party contests oI
the House a few members of the ma
ority party have played into the hands
OF the opposition. They have been
proud of the commendation of their
opponents, who have used them and
despised them for being thus used.
They have mouthed mouldy platitudes
about their obligations to their own
sense of duty rather than the dictates
of caucus" When they have flap.
ped their rhetorical wings and SCARED
above party" their silly souls have
been delighted with the incest Of Re
publican praise, This is the record Of
men who were elected by Democrats
elected as Democrats-men who had
begged Democratic votes from county
to county, and who have prated long
and loud Of their zeal for the success
OF Democratic principles At the first
possible opportunity they betrayed
their constituents, betrayed their prin.
ciples, betrayed their party, and gave
easy victory 10 the enemy--an enemy
that cajoles and flatters such creatures
while cherishing a robust contempt for
them and their ways. Democratic
absenteeism has been another and Il
very fruitful source of Democratic dis.
comdture. The alleged Democratic
majority has been an actual minority
for weeks in succession. Victory has
been given TO the Republicans by a
few Democrats who have cared more
for personal convenience than for pub.
lie duty or the interests Of their party.
Scores Of times a quorum has been
broken and the passage of a Demo.
cratic measure defeated by the absence
OF few men who, at that moment,
could be found in bar-room
A party is in sad predicament
when its success or defeat depends on
three or four ofhalf.a.dozen men whose
appetite for stimulants will not give
way TO any higher sense And to this
complexion has il come with the Dem.
ocratic party in the House on more
than one occasion Of the greatest i'm
portanee. Such men are unfit for any
public position. They are a disgrace
to their constituents, a reproach to the
House, an aflliotion 10 the country. A
man who will risk the success of his
party in a crisis, rather than wait for
drink, is just about as contemplate
as the holy fellow who "riscs above
party" in order 10 be patted on the
back by the Republican press. If the
minority IN the XLVIl shall show
itself compact, sagacious, and guard.
edly aggressive rs has the minority in
the present Congress, there will be a
change two years hence. II is not the
strength Of Republican principles half
so much as the weakness of Democratic
management that has transferred the
sceptre thistime. Meantime q few Dem.
ocratic districts will do well 10 drop in.
to obscurity the men whose egotism,
weakness, neglect, and appetites have
enabled a minority Of Republicansprac.
tically TO dominate Democratic House
and finally retire the Democracy To-
the minority side.

An ASEoDoTE OF JENNY LIND -
In looking over an old pile of papers
we find the following anecdote about
one of the purest and best women who
ever trod the stage. "Sweeter, clearer
and more heavenly than her own most
enhancing strains are the kind pulsa-
tons Of Miss Lind's heart when its
chords vibrate to the touch of the
beautiful and the holy. The follow.
ing is among the most recent of her
kindly offices. The waiting.maid who
had charge Of the rooms she occupied
at tho Clifton House, Niagara Falls,
attracted her notice by her beauty, at.
tention and fidelity. II so happened
that this young woman, by name Mar
garet Atkinson, was about 10 be mar.
ried, aud the news reached the good
vocalist's ears. She Immediately pur-
chased for her becoming and beauti.
ful bridal outfit, earrings, gloves, bon.
net, etc, and with her own hands at.
tended TO her toilet on the morning Of
the ceremony. This done, she took
her in her own carriage, having first
read to her and her future husband
the beautiful and affecting passages
applicable to the occasion, conveyed
her TO Lewistown, entered the Episco-
pal church, and there oiliciated as
Margaret's bridesmaid. There is no
Queen in Europe that would not be
proud Of such maid Of honor on a
similar occasion"

ASLEEP.

In Summertime how fair It showed
My garden by the village road,
Whore Gery stalks Of blossoms glowed,
And roses softly bushed
With aIure spires. and garands white,
Pale heliotrope, the suns delight
And odors that perfumed the night
Where the South wind rushed.
There solemn purple pansies stood,
Gay tulips red with floral blood,
And wild things fresh from field and wood,
Alive with dainty grace.
Deep eaven-bluo bells Of columbine,
This darkly.mystic passion-yine,
And cltmatis, that loves TO twine,
Bedeeked that happy place.
Beneath that strong unclouded blaze
or long and feryeut Summer days
Their colos smOto the passing gaze,
And dallled every eye.
Their cups Of scented boney.dow
Charmed all the bees that Ger them iew,
And butterflies Of radient hue
Paused as they iloated by.
Now falls a cloud of sailing snow,
The bitter winds Of Winter blow,
No blossom daros It's cup to show
Earth folds them in her brcasti
A shrcud Of white. a virgin pail,
ls slowly, softly, hiding all
In vain shall any sweet wind call
To break their silent rest
My garden Is vanished dream.
Dead in the waning moons cold beam,
Clear ieioles above it CLEAN;
And yeti know not how
My flowers will hear the dropping rain
When Spring reneweth hill aud plain,
And then it shall bo mine again
It Is Gods garden now

ABOLITION OF MlLLsToNEs Il found
all the Minneapolis millers taking out
their millstones and substituting steel
rollers in their places. Wheat, by the
new Hungarian process, is not ground
but cracked. These rollers are about
thirty inches in diameter. II takes
five sets Of steel rollers to finish the
flour. Each set of rollers run closer
than the preceding. After the wheat
passes each set Of rollers IL ls bolted or
silted through coarse cloth. This cloth
lets the disintograted particles OF wheat
through, and passes off the bulky and
large pieces, which are run through
another and closer set of rollers, and
cracked again. The last rollers have
little else but wheat bulls and the
waxy germs of the wheat which do
mob crack up but mash down like a
piece of wax. The germ Of kernel
OF wheat Is not good food. It makes
-four black. By the old milestone pro.
cess this waxy germ was ground up
with the starchy portion and bolted
through with flour. By the new sys.
TEN Of cracking the kernel instead OF
grinding it, this germ is not ground,
but 1attened out, and sifted or bolted
out while starchy portions OF the
wheat arc crushed into powdered
wheat or flour

rHE ACCIDENT TO aTEy FRENCH REvo.
LUTON

In 1897 Carlyle published "Tht
French Revolution History II.
publication was delayed by the acci
dental burning Of the first volume Just
as it was ready for the printers. Car
| lyle had lent the manuscript of the
first volume to John Stuart Mill, who
carried it to Mrs. Taylor, the lady
whom he afterwards married. By
some strange accident it was left OK
posed, and a stupid servant lighted the
fires with IT, When the author heard
Of this misfortune, ho was like a man
beside himself, as there was scarcely a
page of the manuscript left. Sitting
down at the table, be strove TO collect
his thoughts, and began to rewrite,
but only to run his pen through each
page as il was finished. Doggedly
persevering, however, Carlyle, finish.
cd the volume at last, after five months
labor.
Carlyle had, however, no reproaches
for the friend who had caused him the
trouble. But he describes the work of
rewriting that volume as one prolong-
ed agony. He undertook the task at
once, but failed through severe mental
depression. He then devoted several
weeks to novel reading as a relaxation
and so finally succeeded in reproduo.
ing the book. A friend OF Carlyle in
an article upon the burning OF the vol.
ume, says
after five months Of perseverance,
he rewrote it, having calmed himself
sufficiently by reading all the novels
OF Captain Marryatt. This second
production he pronounced afterwards
as better than the first, His own ac-
count of his feelings at the tine is both
humorous and sad. 'rhcre was scarce.
