AN OLD SONG.

God hath chosen the weak things of the world"
1t was an old and once familiar strain,
And no efao 6aord fFGm I'm the years gone by
Beneath foreign sky.
A company of strangers met to part,
lo a an a evening c in the esr same hotel
The sweet notes fell.
She was a fair and gentle maid who sang,
w MhH S,1a summers 9 seventeen had scarcely told
The music rolled.
We hushed our busy talk to hear her sing,
The earnest student laid his book aside,
While memory bore on her noiseless wing
To that far distant land beyond the sea,
w h1ch we had left on foreign shores to roam,
Inc music bore us on Its pintons free
Back to our home;
Back to the land which we had left behind,
And showed the faithful hearts and faces Kind
That loved us there.
And one there was who heard that soothing. song,
Embittered by sense Of cruel wrong
No friend might share.
c4nsSsa had
But the sweet tones of that forgotten strain
New feelings brought.
stysRge lqngngs more to the place
To see once more his aged fathers face,
His voice to hear;
To meet again his gentle sisters smile
cTwas she who used to sing this self-same song),
Would uot her love his thoughts from sorrow vile,
And soothe his wrong?
How would their faithful hearts rejoice to greet
Their prodigals return from distant shore,
And bind his heart by many welcome sweet
To roam no more!
Thus he resolved that, when the morning came
He would arise and homeward wend his way,
And, needless of the harsh worlds praise blame
No more would stray.
Little the singer guessed the power that lay
Beneath the accents of her simple song;
Its soothing words should haunt him day by day,
And make him strong.
The lengthening twilight stole into the
And wrapped us in its mantle cold and grey;
Had passed away.
The song ended, and the singer rose,
And lights were brought, and books and work
resumed;
His spirit tasted long denied repose
By hope illum'd;
And when the morning dawned he homeward turned
Back to his fathers house beyond the sea,
The dear old homestead where his spirit yearned
Once more to be.
o happy maid! Go singing thus through life,
Bidding the lost return, the weak be strong;
Thine is a gift with heavenly comfort rife,
The gift of song.
LYDIA HOPE.

Don't Whip a Frightened Horse.

1t seems to be a characteristic fail
ing of most coachmen to lay the lash
upon horse that exhibits fear at an
object in the street or beside the road.
Mr.. Bergh, President of our Society
for the Prevention of Cruelty to Ami
mails, says in the organ of that society
what every reasoning being ought to
know, and that is to never whip your
horse for becoming frightened at any
object by the roadside, or if he sees a
stump, log, or heap of tan-bark in
the road, and, while he is eying it
carefully, and about to pass it, you
strike him with the whip, it is the log,
or stump, or the tan-bark that is hurt
ing him in his way of reasoning, and
the next time he will be more fright
ened. Give him time to smell all of
these objects, and use the bride to as
sist you in bringing him carefully to
those objects Of fear.

cerity of the Republican Convention
in the passage Of its temperance plank.
That resolabion had been presented by
Colonel Isaac Ticker, a Representative
Murphyite, and it was adopt% by the
Convention as the embodiment of the
Murphy sentiment in the State.
Rev. DR.. Leonard-He knows he is
misrepresenting that Convention.
General Hurst do not, sir.
DIR. L.-Then l do.
General Hurst, without noticing
further the interruption, went on to
say that the majority of the Republi-
can members in the last Legislature
had worked as honestly for local op-
ton as anybody in the Convention
could work, but the Hamilton and
Cuyahoga County delegates had
defeated, and now Hamilton County
comes to this Convention with thirty
six delegates and insists upon the
temperance people in the State break
ing loose from the Republican party,
simply because their own delegation
had been untrue.

Mr. Simeon Tietsell, of Saugerties, N Y, had been
treated for seven by various for what
they call Structure of the Urethra, without benefit
He finally consulted Dr. David Kennedy, of Rondout,
n. Y who found his trouble to be Urinary Calcul or
Stones in the Bladder. The doctor at once removed
the foreign bodies with the knife and then gave his
great Blood Specific, "Favorte Remedy to prevent
their reformation. The entire treatment was emil
nently successful, and Mr. Tistsell's recovery was
rapid and perfect.
While ''Favorte Remedy is specific in all Kidney
and Bladder diseases it is equally valuable in of
Bilious Disorders, Constipation of the Bowels, and all
the class of ills apparently fnseperable from the con-
stitutons of women. Try 1t. Your druggist has it,
and its cost is only one dollar bottle The lucky
man is he who puts this advice in practice. Don't
forget the name and address, DR.. David Kennedy,
Rondout, n. Y. The Doctor would have it under
stood that while he is engaged in the introduction of
his medicine, "Favorite Remedy he still continues
the practice of his profession, but confines himself
exclusively to office practice He treats all diseases of
chronic character, and performs all the minor and

A BOLD DECISION.

Some time ago the San Francisco
Chronicle charged that the columns OF the
Bulletin and Call Of that city had been
sold to the Central Pacific Railroad Com
pany. Mr.. Fitch, one OF the proprietors
OF the Bulletin and Call, brough. a suit
against Mr.. De Young charging him with
libel. A dispatch says that Judge
Allen Of the Supreme Court has sustained
the demurrer OF the defendant, on the
ground that Ga newspaper has the right
to sell its columns, and that it is no more
Iibeioas to charge a journalist with sell
ing bis newspaper than it is to accuse a
merchant OF selling his wares" Judge
Aliens opinion will strike the majority
Of people as new and strange, though it
must be said that the newspaper is purely
o private enterprise and may, nj doubt,
legally advocate any cause or interest as
IN attorney if it should be 30 lost to its
own interests as TO do so. Yet to be
charged with 80 doing is 50 similar to
libel that the distinction seems to be
without a difference. But that a news.
paper, or an individual. may say or do
that which is not an offense in law and
yet DO greatly injured by being charged
with the same on the score Of libel ia
very suggestive. 1t means simply this,
that 9 newspaper has q character to
maintain; that it must not lend itself
TO the promotion Of private interests to
tho injury Of its patrons. the general
public; that IL loses its life if it loses
the confidence Of the people. Hence.
Judge Aliens decision does not effect the
status of the newspaper, though his
opinion should be confirmed by the Bench
universally,
