Visit to List.

The grand piano was open behind
him, but we were not to hear it; he
seldom touches it now, although last
year he played good deal Of Chopin
to me at the Villa D Este. I told him
of the piano recital mania in London
last season. He said of Rubenstein
He Is the king of all pianists now
before the public, he must carry all
before him;' and of Sophie Menter,
whom he had specially charged me to
hear: mo woman can touch her
In every style she is superb" He
said he was at work upon orchestral
com position, which he intimated the
public did not always care about and
I spoke of our painter Watts. who
now delights to paint for himself, and
often declares that his favorite con-
ceptions are those least understood by
the public. ALL" said List; but
here is an artist" turning to
stranger present, "who paints for the
public, and is appreciated" But it was
his graceful way of turning the talk
off himself; and then he went on to
speak of that eccentric Belgian artist,
Wirtz, whom he had known. The
Writ gallery at Brussels is very
famous now, though List seemed to
fancy Wirtz was still little known.
His creations were strange and fam
tastic, he was voted mad, and the
critics abused and laughed at him. /
remember he had great studio, and
at one end a kind of pulpit; he used
to get up in it and preach against
the critics and society, and declaim
about all sorts of things" List told
. good anecdote about him. "He
used to send these odd pictures to the
Salon year after year, which were al
always returned; the judges would
have nothing to say to him. Well,
he happened to become possessed of q
veritable Rubens, and the malicious
idea occurred to him to put his own
name to it, aud send it up to the
Salon. The judges taking it for more
Writ rubbish, sent it back. Poor
Writ, you can imagine that he went
up in his pulpit next time with good
text!n
I said to him later: $50 you will

All, to be across the seas,
Where the summer-scented breeze
Murm rs mid the leaiy trees,
And silent sea
Flashes on silent shore;
Where to dwell forevermors
Until love ana lie are Ger,
Peaceful life would be.
Such vision meets my gaze,
Glistens through a dreamtul haze.
Though the mist of these dark days
Hides it from my view.
Yet touch of love supreme
Lights the mist with sunny CLEAN,
In the land OF which / dream
Love shall e'er be true.
There shall life begin anew,
Neat such skies of azure blue
Love could be naugnt else but true
And its light shall CLEAN,
Driving from our fair domain
These dark days of mist and rain;
No more sorrow. toll or pain
All, tits but a dream
Seek not to please the world, but
your own conscience. The man who
has feeling within him that he has
done his duty is far happier than he
who hangs upon the smiles of the
great, or the still more tickle favors OF
the II ultitude.
Out of suffering have emerged the
strongest souls, and the most massive
characters are scanned with scars
martyrs have put on their coronation
robes glittering with fire, and through
their tears have the sorrowful first
seen the gates OF heaven.

The Saint Smith Convention held
in Columbus last week to stiffen the
temperance backbone of the Lobby
Legislature was largely attended, but
whether its proceedings will infu-
ence the Lobbyists to pass the Smith
Sunday law or the Pond bill now
pending, is very uncertain. There
is no doubt that the Convention rep
resented a great moral sentiment in
Ohio and a popular demand that she
proposed sumptuary Legislation shall
be granted, but we apprehend that
the majority in the present reform
Legislature Will be exceedingly care
ful to not pass either the Smith bill
or the Pond bill, however much the
moral reformers many resolve that it
ought to pass them. In a question
between 'moral sentiment" and
votes, moral sentiment does not count
for much in the Republican party,
and in this case, unfortunately for
the reformers, they have plenty of
sentiment, but when it comes to votes
they don't pan out.

MARTHA
The Eaton Democrat. (Eaton, Ohio) 1875-1903, 1882-03-30

The robbery of the public treasury
has been indecently going on ever
since the days of Grantism. Meth
er legislation nor rules will eve ex-
tirpate the corruption aud the evils
which the Republican party has fast
ened on every branch of the public
service through long possession Of
power and misrule. The only hope
of practical reform is in a change Of
administration which will sweep out
of existence a system of partisan
government at once arbitrary, foul
dishonest and reckless.
The Eaton Democrat. (Eaton, Ohio) 1875-1903, 1882-03-30

The proposed partisan apportion-
ment of representation under the
census of 1880 leaves the Republican
party so much less than an absolute
certainty of victory, that the new
State projects are sure to be pushed
with the sort of zeal that is always
born of dire necessity. Victory is
possible without the six votes that
can be made out of Dakota and Wash
ington, but is too doubtful a quaint
tv not TO make thoes halfdozen votes
worth a little hard work.

1t has been said for some days that
the New York County Democracy
had made certain discoveries respect
ing the use of money during the last
Presidential election which were of a
startling character. The light at
first was vague, but it is now posi-
lively asserted by men who are in a
position to know that there is foun-
dation for it. In a word, the state
ment made is that it has been dis
covered chat a sum o. money amount
ing to something over $1,000, 600 was
raised by the Finance Committee at
tached to the Republican organiza-
tion, large part of which was used
in purchasing votes, and it is also
stated that the committee have trac.
ed tue sum of 100000 to a bank in
New York, which sum was paid out
directly On orders to men who used
it in reducing the natural Democrat
ic vote in New York city and Kings
and Queens Counties. And yet witt
such facts staring the people in tn,
face, a brilliant contemporary as
serts that only for the organized ig
norance" of our foreign population

existence!

With a blare of brazen instruments
the people of Ohio were repeatedly
told last year that the last Republi-
can Legislature had saved hundreds
of thousands of dollars. It is now
shown that these savings have melt
ed away in the presence of the def.
ciencies, which amount to $4,000
1t now looks as though there would
not be money enough in the State
Treasury to NEE. the appropriations
The sinking Fund will have to bt
raised again.
