AFTER A WHILE.

There is a strange, sweet solace in the thought
That all the woes we suffer here below
May, as dark and hideous garment wrought
For us to wear, whether we will or not
Be cast aside, with relieving smile,
After a little while.
Only a little while this vale Of tears
With means and signs shall hem our devious
Only little while the grief that sears
And wrings and rends, shall gloat above its
prey;
After little while.
What if we lose earth's pageants, fresh and
The pride of morn, the sunsets gorgeous
fields,
Loves leaping pulse, and the unmeasured
That Natures largess for the asking yields
If death to brighter shores our souls exile
After alittle while?
No mortal roaming but hath certain end;
Though far unto the Ocean-spaceS gray
We sail and sail, without chart for friend,
Above the skyline, faint and far away,
There looms ut last the one enchanted isle
After little while.
Though over burning and inveterate sands,
To seek the rivers mystic source, we STRAIN;
With parChing lips, scorChed feet and clustered
hands,
At last there rises the one mountain chain
That folds the fountains of our spirits Mic
After little while.
o, when our cares come thronging thick and
fast,
With more of anguish than the heart can
bear,
Though friends desert, ard, as the needless
blast,
Even love pass by us with a stony stare,
Let us withdraw into some ruined pile,
Or lonely forest aisle
And contemplate the never-ceasing change
Whereby the processes of God are wrought
And from our petty lives our souls estrange,
Till bathed in currents of exalted thought,
We feel the rest that must our cares beguile
After a little while!

THE HAMILTON BENEFIT.
A Generous Plan Proposed by the
"Hearts Of Oak" Company.

At the time OF the death of James Ham
ilton, he was advance agent of Herne's
Hearts of Oak" Company, as which he
| had been a decided success. Mr.. Herne
had re-engaged him for next season, at a
handsome compensation, and Mr.. Hamil-
ton was in a most prosperous way. His
sudden death, however eclipsed these
! financial hopes and left his wife and fami-
| ~ IN very Strengthened circumstances. In
! connection with this, letter from Mr..
| Herne to A. J. Halstead, will be read with
interest, both as showing the estimation IN
which Mr.. Hamilton was held and for the
plan it proposes. 1t is dated at Ashmont,
Mass, and proceeds as follows:
have this moment received a telegram
informing me of Jimmie's death, and
must say il was shock. | am anxious to
do something to show my appreciation OF
him as man and a business associate, and
know of no way better than in a testi-
monial benefit to his widow by the Hearts
of Oak company, Ofwhich he was member
at the time of his death. And although it
is late in the season when reach Wheeling

place where such a scheme could be carried
to so successful an issue as in his own
town. | know he will not be forgotten
then, and, while might give the same
time and energy to the same object, earlier
and elsewhere, anu confident it could not
result as benetCally to his widow and son.
With your assistance and that of his many
former companions and friends, We ought
to make this token very substantial one.

the memory of James Hamilton, Gentleman

Cepted by Mr.. Hamilton's friends, and will
doubtless result in rousing house and a

long been planning his escape from jaIl, but
has been batlled in all his efforts in that di-

.SIsrERsvIILE, w. Va, August IL see In
an article OF the 4th issue Of your paper
stating that Tyler county is solid for J. II.
Good for congress, and that seventeen Of
the delegates are for him. would say that
il is not the case, TO use mild expression.
1t is for Col. d. D. Johnson that the coun-
ty is solid, and IL any set Of delegates would
vote otherwise they would not express the
will of the people Of this county. Let rs
look at the list of delegates and see how
they stand, First. as to Centerville dis
trict, Corbley and Anderson are solid for
Johnson. As to Ellsworth's five delegates
they are solid for johnson, and IL any one
does not think so, Just let him ask and see.
The Elroy's three are for johnson first,
last and all the time, and Meades two are
the same beyond any cavil. OF Union IL Is
needless to say anything about, for that is
his old home, and they are for him solid.
AS to the delegates from Lincoln. An

and the delegate at large l am not posi-.

nineteen delegates are solid for Johnson,
and il is useless for any one to try to mis-.
lead the people in regard to his strength,

MARTINS FERRY.

Park and Mars keg factory is running

will be made in a day or two.
4 very large shipment of glass was made

works, yesterday.
Thieves went through the cellar of the
house of James Campbell. at Burlington,
one night recently, and carried off all the
eatables and other articles therein.
Mr.. J. P. Crowell is visiting friends at

Hoyle Bros. have shipped three thresh'
ing machines this week.
Mrs. S. G. Cochran and daughter Allie
are visiting fsiends at Wegee.
Albert Johnson, of Mt. Pleasant, is the
guest of friends here.
The G. A. X. made fraternal visit,to
Brannum Post, at Bridgeport, night before

Work at the Elson Glass Works is pro-
crossing as rapidly as practicable. John
Nicholson, Jr., of furnace fame, has arrived,
and will hereafter take personal charge of
the construction of the furnace which the
company is building Mr.. W. X. Elson is
also on the grounds, and is having general
supervision of the works. The furnace
will be much larger, and it is claimed that
its capacity for larger production will be
much in excess of that of any two furnaces
in the United States.
The house building mania is as rampant
as ever here, and there is an absolute ne.
cessity for all the buildings that can be put
up. The completion of the Union glass
works, the erection of the Standard mill
and the progress of the Elson glass works
have caused large influx OF people for
whom there is and was no accommodation,
and the consequence has been that we have
had very crowded little city all this year.
Rents have advanced very appreciably, and
in spite of this there are no houses.
The strike, while it has af-
fected Martins Ferry in common
with all other town in which the dissats-
fed laborers reside has nevertheless had
that paralyzing effect that was anticipated,
and business has been reasonably fair all
this year. The increase Of factories and
workshops has, of course, increased the
importance of the city, and yearly she be-
comes more independent and self sustain
ing. Her stores of all kind have improved,
and it is becoming apparent that the de-
pendence upon Wheeling is monthly
diminishing. With her incompatible ad-
vantageS with us as place of residence and
by the way a location for workshops of all
kinds, Martins Ferry is destined in the
next few years TO become a large and in
fuential city.
