BERLIN, October 24.-Further reports re-
garding the elections for direct electors for
members of the Diet show that the Extreme
Right and Secessionist Liberals are net
gsiners to the extent of nine aud five seats
respectively. The National Liberals lost
ten seats. The election of Stockard for
Westpnalia appears assured. The goverI-
ment is making every effort to prevent the
alliance of the Conservatives with the Cleri-

POEm By rEssrEk.

Daniel Webster wrote several poems dur
ing the early years of his manhood, one of which
Emerson deemed worthy of a place in his Par
ndssES. The publishers of the Fryeburgh Grafton
delivered eighty years ago on the 4th of July, ap
pend to 1t, among other things, poem written b.
Mr.. Webster on the death of his little son Charlie
in 1925. Some of the stanzas are remarkable.l
The staff on which my years should lean
Is broken, ere those years come DER me;
Ny funeral rites thou should'st have seen
But thou art in the tomb before me.
Thou rear'ss to me no filial stone,
No parents grave with tears beholdest;
Thou art my ancestor, my son,
And stand'st in Heavens account the Oldest
On earth my lot was soonest cast,
Thy generation after mine;
Thou hast thy predecessor passed,
Earlier eternity is thine.
/ should have set before thine eyes
The road TO heaven, and shown it clear;
Built hou untaught spring'st to the skies
And leav'st thy teacher lingering here.
Sweet seraph, would learn of thee,
And hasten to partake thy bliss;
And, oh, to thy world welcome me,
AS first welcomed thee to this.
