around the corners of his mouth, a

bankers groan there is equal pathos
and equal despair. Somebody passes
him here-somebody walking hastily

was bent above his desk an hour ago
the man who fought that terrible bat

rushing now to ruin. He jostles
against Chips as he goes heedlessly on.
A breath Of wind blows open his coat;

He trembles in his excitement. His
eyes shine like the lamps in the street.
He turns partly toward the other side

He is so hungry.

His charity was like the snow,

In words he did not put his trust;
In faith his words were never writ;
He loved to share his cup and crust
With any one who needed it.

He told not me.
He put his trust in heaven, and worked
Ever along with hand and head;
And what he gave in charity

exposed the cringing policy of the Administra-
tion, and showed where il had permitted Eng
land to circumyent it, and secure advantages
which the United States should have had Young
Belmont, of New York, attempted to badger him,
by misquotIng his language, and propOunding
insulting questions, which had been furnished
either from Tildens office in New York, or by the
stalwart leaders; but Blaine sent him yelping
out of the case, rubbing his wounded honor.
Blaine has been censured for losing his temper ;
but he knew who dictated Belmont's questions,
and the object of them, and resented the Insult
on the spot.

The VALUE OF CHREK.-An editor may have
hard time, but his long service at the business
NAV be a substantial benefit TO him, in a way
that he does not suspect The hardness Of cheek
that he acquires may be blessing in disguise.
Now, for instance, about halfpast ten o'clock on
"Wednesday night of last week, we were in a car
of the Santa Fe Road, bound for Topeka About
a mile beyond Atchison, some where near the
Fair Grounds, suddenly window in the oppo-
site aide Of the car crashed, and the missile, pas
sing through the glass and across the car, took
us ker-chug on the jaw, first grazing the nose of
Major Morrill,, who occupied the end of the seat
next the aisle. The thing felt like a brick-bat,
wheu it took on the jaw, and it glanced off
and struck the window beside us, but not break
ing il, fell somewhere among the seats. II passed
over the head of baby sitting in a woman's lap
by the window where it entered, and filled the
faces and hair of persons in the vicinity with
powdered glass. The hole in the glass was not
such as a rock makes, but was round, and not
large, such e bullet would make. The glass
around the hole was not cracked and shattered.
Persons sitting on that side, say they heard
report and saw fash. IL it was q shot, it must
have been fired by accident or carelessness, or
from pure deyilishness, for there was no attempt
made to molest the train, and at the speed the
car was going, with not bright light inside, no
face could be recognized through the window,
therefore, there is no probability that robbing
was designed, or an assault upon any person ON
the train. II bullet, its force must have been
spent in breaking through the heavy glass. But
we want TO put il on record right here, while
the witnesses are living, that our cheek was too
much for it, and it didn't even break the skin.
But it hurt like Sam Hill, and still hurts. But
we had to laugh to think what would have been
the consequence if it had but hit Morrill, on the

II Gov. Crittenden, of Missouri, is 4 man that
will do his State good. The Democracy of tina;
State did better thing than they supposed,
when they elected Union General for Governor.
He had the backbone and the nerve to deal with
the outlaws that infested the State, in the only
way that could be effectual. He set the lesser
ones to killing the bigger ones. There may be
robberies and other depredations in the Stale
hereafter, but he has bruken up organized out
lawry. As it will be several years yet before the
Republicans have majority in Missouri, and
the Democrats will be able to elect the next
Governor, they should show that they are not
the friends of robbers and murderers by re-elect-
ing Gov Crittenden,
