TO CRAFTY HIS WIFE.
An Interesting Story-A Hopeless Case
Cured-AGood Reason for Happiness.
Statement of Mr. Washington Monroe, of Catskill
Green County, New York

"For mauy years had suffered from complaint
which the physicians called Gravel had employed
some of the most noted doctors without obtaining
any permanent relief, and for long time my case
was regarded as hopeless. All who knew the cir
csmstances said must die. Finally, my wife in
duced me try bottle of DR.. Kennedys Favorite
Remedy which she had somewhere heard of or seen
advertised. Without the slightest faith in it, but
solely to crafty her, bought bottle of druggist
in village l used that and two or three bottles
more, and-to make long story short--I am now as
healthy man there is in the country.
Since then have recommended "Favorite Rene
dy to Others whom knew to have suffered from
Kidney and Liver complaints; and, assure the pub
lie, that the 'Favorite Remedy has done its work
with similar completeness in every single instance
and trust some other sick and discouraged mortal
may hear of it and try the "Favorite Remedy, as |
did. may7S, T&Ih&wlm19

POETRY.
A Pessimist's Lament.

Oh, kindly let Inc sit and die
The o9e resource for weary souls
For all creation seems awry,
The cath is flattened at the poles
The laws of nature are the most
Disg-aceful that / ever knew;
They're always getting in the way.
There's nothing that they'll let one do.
] can not sit upon the beach,
And on my sickeniDg SORROWS muse,
But that grim moon must needs be there
To drag the ocean DER my shoes.
| can not Jump from of a cliff,
To mount horse hardly dare,
With grayitation gloatiag by,
To smash me with its inverse square"
Win nothing wear the old earth out :?
win these sad ages ne'er be past?
! hate yon mountains granite peaks;
They look as though they meant to last.
The grass is green, the sky is blue,
The taste displayed is very bad:
The yellow sunsets vulgar hue
Makes me too angry TO be sad.
on second thoughts, l will rot die;
wont be mixed with dirt and stones;
7 his planet simply isn't fit
TO hold my philosophic bones
Oh, woe is mel To be man
The common lot so 'stale and fiat''l
Why can't one be dodo rare,
Or cen tortoise-shell tomcat?
For then at least one might be stuffed,
And-gazed at by the public eye,
lnsuring all l fear to lose
Ofgenuine immortality.
Oh, Time aud Space are stupid things,
And SOS Existence as q whole.
I'm sure should b. happier far
Devoid of body and of soul.
But then if Things are SO perverse,
P'rhaps NOthing'S rotten at the core,
And should find, of course too late,
Nonentity horrid bore.

New Phase of the peace with
Honor"
[Cable to the New York Herald.1

Gable to the New York Herald.l
Within the past few days tho prospects Of
the.conservatives have been badly damaged by
the publication of the dispatches about Tunis,
which make it abundantly clear that Lord
Beaconsfield and Lord Salisbury agreed to al
low France to seize Tunis as the price of
"peace with honor and the acquisition of
Cyprus. The publication of those dispatches
has given Jingoism bad fall. The amusing
part of the matter is that it was the frantic
cries of the Jingoes for war with France,
which compelled the production of papers
which all sensible tories must wish buried
fathoms deep. The picture of Lord Beacons-
field selling Italy and Turkey at time when
the English Government was playing the
part of the champion of international rights is
sad and distressing enough and will no doubt
prove powerful arm in the hands of the Lib
erals in any conflict which the Tories may pro-
woke. Fortunately for Lord Beaconsfield he
died before he was found out. Had he tarried
a little longer his country might have decreed
his epitaph to be Cyprus with dishonor."
The rumor set a1oat that Mr.. Gladstone
would create a sufficient number of peers to
pass the land bill is ridiculous

The Color Line.
A Notable Paper by Frederick Douglass
in the North American.

Frederick Douglass has notable paper on
"The Color Line in the current number of
the North American Review, which is written
with dignity, feeling and force that no other
man 10 the country could hope to equal, in
speaking upon this question. We remember
to have heard Mr.. Douglass, in the dreadful
old days of slavery, speak upon the wrongs of
his race, and the attitude of the white people
toward them. He spoke alternately of "we
colored folks" and 1--WE white people,
adding, with that bitter and sarcastic humor
which gave such an unique flavor to his ora
tory, You see l am impartial, friends, can
speak for both Sides" In. the present paper
he speaks for the color people. Race prejudi-
ces he classes as moral disorder" which at
some time in their history has afflicted all ma
tons. The colored people of this country he
atfirms. have suffered most from this feeling.
Without offense against law Or gospel the
colored man is the Jean Vatican of American
society. He has escaped from the galleys and
hence all Prescriptions are against him."
Mr.. Douglass speaks with indignant elo-
quence against this evil spirit, and proceeds to
examine its cause and manifestations. He in
sists. and in good measure proves, that color
prejudice is not natural and inevitable char
acterlStlc OF the white race, beyond the reach
of evolution. There is, he declares. no color
prejudice in Europe, except among Ameri-
cans who reside there. Mr.. Douglass cites his
own experience abroad, and that of other men
of his race, some of them black, to prove that
there is no aversion to negroes in England or
on the continent on account of color The ex-
istence of such feeling in America he attrb-
utes of course, to slavery: "Out of the depths
of slavery has come this prejudice, and this
color line" Slavery is gone, but its spirit and
its shadow remain. The inconsistencies of the
prejudice which tolerates all intimacies that
involve service from the subject race, but re-
sents anything looking to equality" are very
caustically presented ''The trouble is that
most men and especially most mean men, want
TO have something under Them" This feeling
the writer has discovered, is one of the vani-
ties which enlightenment will dspel. "Men
who are really great are too great to be small, +"
and the ex-slave, who has met and mingled
freely with the leading great men of his time,
can remember no instance when among such
men he has been made to feel himself an OBJ
iect of aversion" Mr.. Douglass is encouraged
to find that the number of those who rise su-
perior to prejudice is great and increasing, and
looks forward to time when it will be true,
even of colored face, that "a mans man
for a. that"
