For The Chitugo Tribune.
AZ across the skies Of azure
Falls the Stortn-couds soMbrc hue,
Dark ming I'LL the Springtimc beauty,
Yelling all the sunny blue;
AS the lightning lurid flashes
GeAn anu brighten DER the whole,
And the thundcrs fenrfilt anthem
Strikes with awe the listening soul:
Thus upon Il peaceful homestead
Fell the grim Destroyer's might.
And the fairest nesrltug i'll it
Plumel his wings for higher flight,
Dright-ah bright!-the hopes that centercd
Iii that young iffc's blooming duysl
Strong the ioyc that Gust aruundit
All the Iustre Of its rays.
Stricken mother, tears IRE raining
From thy bleeding heart oil grief;
Father, Sisters. to thy sorrow
Human uid brings no relief.
And the brother, houle returning
After MANY years have sped
Longs to list the loving greeting
hut he bends above the dcnd!
Shall strive to chase the darkness
With tho starlight tair oil hope
Whisper words OF comfort, helping
You with sorrow deep to cope?
Ah nc, no! The cross so heavy
Human hands calInot upr;ltse;
And the shadow, dense upon you,
Nn1sht that's human c'cr obcys!
Only follow NC III spirit
To the ifO0d-stAined Calvary side,
Where II Mother once kneIt weeping,
And the King Of Heaven died.
There I'll leave you. friends SO stricken:
q within His Heart Of Love,
Muy you find tho consolation
That is only born above! II.

by the political cry Of solid south.
If the solid south is broken, the SOL
id north will as certainly go to pieces,
and sectionaljsm will receive it's
death-blow. We don't want any
section of this country solidly arrayed
against the other, politically or 9TH
erwise. We are all under one gov
eminent and one flag, and all should
work for the best interests of the
whole. We predict that when the
south divides up politically, the
north will follow suit, for the reason
that the most potent and powerful
argument of the politicians for keep
ing it solid will pass away with the
solidity of the south. 1t may be that
Malone has not traced the political
effects Of a divided south to its logi-
cal conclusions, and that he does not
seek the end that is sure to follow,
but it will come all the same.

THE LEGISLATURE.

On the second Wednesday in jan
uary, this body will meet in Wheel
ing. How long the session may last
it is impossible to tell, but we pre-
sumo, not less than forty-four days.
A great many bills have been prepar-
ed by the Reyisory Committee, and
we understand it is proposed to make
some very important changes in the
laws. Their bills have been printed
for weeks, and yet we have see but
little reference made to them in the
papers of the State. Would it not
be we'll for some one familiar with
our statutes, to make a brief synop-
sis of them. This would direct at
tention to them. Our citizens will
have no right to complain of igno-
rance of what the adjourned session
may do in regard to legislation. The
bills are now, and have been for
weeks, in the circuit and county
clerks office of this county, and can
be examined by any one who would
take the trouble to read them. AS
rapidly as they were received by
Hon. E. Boyd Faulkner, they were
placed there, and attention was called
to the fact through the columns of
this paper. If any suggestions are
to be made, it ought to be before the
legislature has acted upon them.

REV. DIR. STUART ROBINSON.

Among the legacies bequeathed in
his will by this distinguished clergy
man and scholar, was one of five
hundred dollars to 'Israel Robinson,
Of Berkeley county" The execu-
tors of the estate have transmitted
that sum to Hon. Chas. j. Faux
ner who has passed it over to the
legatee. Israel Robinson is a rela-
tive of the Doctor, and a very poor
man, and this kind remembrance of
him is but another illustration of
the noble character of that celebrated
divine, and will no doubt be CRATE
fully appreciated by the legatee and
his family and friends.

NOTES AND COMMENT.

Prudent Arthur declines to ac-
cept invitations to agricultural fairs.
The Guiteau prosecution "rests."
But let no one indulge the idea that
they are done.
Mr.Ieigh Robinson has withdrawn
from the Guiteau case as counsel for
the prisoner.
VIM. Jones, who, it is alleged, shot
at Guiteau, last Saturday, was before
the Washington Police Court, and
held in the sum of $4,000 bail.
A report made to the Secretary Of
the Interior by the Superintendent
of the Census shows that the total
population of the United States, as
finally determined by the last census,
is so, 155, 1888.
1t is now believed that Congress
will appoint a commission, composed
of eminent merchants and manufac-
turers and a joint representation from
both Houses, to determine what re-
vision the tariff most needs.
The defalcation by the cashier of
the Newark Bank is followed by the
suspension of the Pacific National
Bank, of Boston. The failure of this
last bank is due in part to the Off
GERS of the bank allowing Theo. c..
Weeks, a stock broker, to largely
overdraw his account. At a meet
ing of the creditors of the bank held
a few days ago. it was found that the
Pacific National had out about $780,
600 Of overdue paper, all of which
amount was held by a single concern.
Most of this paper consisted Of
Weeks notes, and when interroga-
ted the Pacific Bank people admitted
that they had 40 money with which
to meet them.
