MISCELLANEOUS.
THE ROSE AID THE WAIF.


The people were hurrying homeward,
The shops looked CHEEKY and bright,
As the twilight crept over the city
With dusky, lingering light,
Casting blurring shadow
Over the ceaseless throng
Passing and iostlinR each other,
Resistlessly sweeping along.
And the ring of horses' feet
Broke sharp on the frosty air
AS away carriage ratified
Or stopped in the shop-light glare;
And perhaps woman in trailing silk
Would step from the carriage door,
With faint sweet trace of perfume
AS she hurried into the store.
Brightly the lighted hower-shop
Shone into the dusky street,
Its glittering windows beautiful
With the flowers gay and sweet.
And close TO the shining window
A little girl, poor and thin,
With her wisttul eyes stood gazing
At the fairy land within;
Her little arms huddled together,
Her fingers so cold and blue,
Motionless still as the night drew on,
Chilling her through and through.
Ulstered and furred and cozy,
a man was plbblnH Tie bHOps
But q glimpse of the face so wistful
Moved HIM to turn and stop.
And a sorrowful wave of pity
Swept over his heart at the sight
OF the little creature standing there
So wan in the golden light.
Then, swiftly going toward her,
He touched her fingers blue;
And what do you want, my little Onef
And what can i do for your
Almost guilty starting,
Though CHEEKY and warm his tone,
She looked with fierce and distrustful eyes
In the kind ones bent to her own.
And then, in a tone of defiance.
With shake of her little head:
What want is one of them roses
So big and 30 warm and SO red !"
You poor little thing lie took her hand,
And led her into the store;
Now choose for yourself the prettiest one,
He said as they closed the door.
How she clasped the rose that he gave her,
With n rapture before unknown
How the great dark hungry eyes
With happy wonder shone!
He left her; and, needless of all around,
Out in the cold she went,
And her life was no longer bitter,
But sweet with the rose it blent.
Wandering on in a fairy dream,
Happy and glad at heart,
Till-sharp was the shout of warning
Which turned her back with start
Tighter she clasped her precious rose,
Close to her heart twas pressed;
The fear that the flower would be taken away
Was the terror that filed her breast.
And back she ran in frightened way,
Unheeding the wilder call.
Right under the feet of the startled steeds--
A cry--and that was all.
White and still in the turbulent street,
Still clasping the rose she lay
The rose that Just the space of dream
Had banished hfe's sadness away.

By recent even. to give utterance to
the sentiments following:
During the reception given the Grand
Lodge of Odd Fellows pleasing incl

DIR. n. w. Lane, of Port Gamble. said
that az A representative of Western

This incident demonstrates that the

Walla an ! the consequent bring OF large
numbers or representative men from
the western partssof the Territory into q
region they knew not, save by hear-say,
Will prove very beneficial to the whole
Territory. These gentlemen have had
their eyes opened, have learned that al
of Washington is not located in the cit
les and villages which are to be found
on Puget Sound. and our people, by OBJ
serving these representative men, nave
come to know that they are worthy OF
our friendship. Hitherto the social IN
| tercourse between the inhabitants OF the
great divisions of the Territoryihas been
confined to such periodical visits as were
made TO Olympia by the few members
of the Legislature or representatives OF
various Grand Lodges sent from East
earn Washington. Their business inter;
cour Q has be,n restricted . thepaymen!
of taxes and the expenditure OF the
public money. The natural result has
been that there has grown up sort OF
vague, jealous antagonism between the
two great sections of the Territory
which has contributed in some degree
to retard the general welfare. We but
Give voice to the sentiments of the citi

ENGLANDs POSITION S1RENGT GTHENhD.

ENGLAND'S POSITION S1RBNG THENkD.
The Sultan's proclamation is a conspicuous
proof OF Lord Duflerln's deXterlty. Arab is
pronounced rebel not only for usurping the
Khedives authority, but als) for having pre-
"sumed to menace the vessels belonging to an
"old and tried friend and ally of Turkey"
This is a master stroke. In its instructions to
Lord Duliern dated July 2S, the British Cab
met asked for specific information in regard to
the dispatch of Turkish troops, authorized the
acceptance of the Sutsns offer of assistance,
and demanded that Arab should be pro-
claimed rebel. There was no suggestion in
the instructions THAT the proclamation shodld
vindicate the action OF the feet i'll b0mbardlng
Alexandria. This was all aiter-t thought for
which we are inclined to give Lord Dufferin
the credit When he was making post-pran-
dial speeches in Canada, he used to plume him
self upon his Irish blood and certainly this
ingenious phrase suggests not only q Celts
quick wit, but his ruling passion for taking q
bull by the horns. When Alexandria was
bombarded the Sultan angrily protested
against the wanton destruction of his prop
erty and an unwarrantable invasion of his ter
rtOry. In the proclamation Arab is arraigned
for shaving presumed TO menace the feet of
an old and tried friend and ally" This is q
brilliant bit of diplomatic byplay. England
now has authority from the Sovereign not only
for suppressing a military revolt against the
Viceroy, but also for Furnishing Arab for men
acing the safety of the fleet.
The conditions of the military convention
between England and the Porte have not been
agreed upon. The Conference leaves the Sui
tan at the mercy of his "old and tried friend
and ally" The part which the Turkish con-
tingent will play in the military drama in
Egypt will necessarily be q subordinate one.
