a summer sky and balmy wind,
And swallow swiftly flying;
wee brown nest in the leaves entwined,
And some downy birdlets lying,
And swift to that nest, in the leaves on
twined,
The mother bird was flying.
A Pickering light and heap of gold,
And miser counting slowly;
lonely home and an empty fold.
And heart in self wrapt wholly;
And nothing to cheer that empty fold
But the gold heap, growing slowly.
warning sea and a storm-black sky,
And creaking vessel sailing;
captain watching with troubled eye
While courage sore was failing;
And he looked toward home with longing
eye,
As to death he fast was sailing.
A Agrief-marked day anda darkened room,
Anda childless mother lying;
An empty nest, and a shir in doom;
Life gold from ringlets dying,
And Gods crown jewels safe from doom
In the many mansions lying

THE B1AcKsMrTHs SONG.

Through the easement, roseate Dawn
Already steals with cheering ray;
Let's to the forge, and wake the morn
With boist'rous voice and iocund layi
Bellows, Blow and furnace, smoke;
Bend The glowing metal soon;
Hammer, fall with telling stroke -
Sing to my anvils, merry tune,
Pong, Pong
Strike while the irons hot "
With lusty strokes my hammer rings;
Strike hard 'Tis for your chubby boy
Who to his mother fondly clings,
And trills his cooling notes of joy.
Thanks TO the sweat that bathes my face
The paths of learning he shall tread,
And knowledge makes her dwelling-place
Within my darling's fair young head
Labor unto the heart gives ease.
And will our daily bread supply;
1t decks the charms of my Therese,
My wife, my household deity
Our hands were never formed to make
Muskets or sword-blades, bolts or chains
God gave us arms for labor's sake;
Our minds he for Loves work ordains
Now all who day by day pursue
Some darling hope, some cherished end
Old hearts who have but power in view;
Young hearts, who Loves soft call attend.
Men who would WELD the sword or pen
Sages and fools-peasants and kings
If you'd succeed, take as the word
OF wis1omiwhat my anvil rings:
Pong, Pong, Pong
Strike while the irons hot.'

FASHION NOTES.

Joule cloth is rival of cheviots and
tweeds.
New half-ftting wraps are cut with
japanese sleeves.
Position backs and points in front
are the rule in basques.
New Khiba cloths of light weight
come in fine checks in the new colors.
Velvet ribbons are revived for trim
ming cashmeres, silks and novelty
fabrics.
Several or two rows of small but
tons down the front of the dress re-
main in favor.
Terra-cottas are prominent in the
shades for spring, and IN innumerable
variety of colors bordering on this shade
exist
Falenciennes lace is returning to
favor for evening wear, the new Nor
mandy patterns being very delicate
and tasteful.
Quaker gray, dove and cloud grays
are the principal shades Of gray which
are represented in fine wool materials
for spring costumes.
The spring visites are more frequent
ly half long, and elaborately trimmed.
The tWllength garments take the
form Of redingotes and pelisses.
Cat-tails, reeds and swamp grasses
trim the wicker basket hats that are
imported for summer use. Heads of
wheat are made into bows for such
hats.
The latest importations of brocaded
silks show Ottoman grounds with satin
and plain silk designs, flowers, leaves,
and conventional, medieval and ori.
entail figures.
An exquisite fabric just brought out
is the Vatican raye, silk and wool
fabric in vanishing cross stripes on a
changeable, lengthwise striped ground
in oriental colors and effects.
The white India cashmere robes,
with India cashmere palm leaf and
other oriental designs, are the costliest
wOolen stuffs brought out this season.
They are priced at 800 robe.
A stylish spring, bonnet in "Queen
Nab shape, which is of the poke order
of bonnets, is made Of amber-cOlored
straw. About tho crown is draped a
wide pattern of gold lace, which partly
wells small wreath of scarlet roses
and mignonettes. The inside of the
bonnet is faced with crimson velvet,
and upon the extreme edge is set row
of pale amber beads.
In many New York stores devoted
to the sale of elegant lingerieis is quite a
display of Elizabethan and Mary Stuart
ruffs. Some are made of lace and
others of the sheerest of India muslin.
To keep them lin an upright position
a stiff, invisible net lining is used.
Roman pearl beads, large and small,
according to fancy, are sewn on the
edge. TO suit this style the throat
must be long and slender or moderately
so, and the hair of the wearer dressed
high.
The fashions for the present season
are TO be singularly eclectic. silk,
satin, velvet, plush, pekin, faille, bro
cade, are all worn to some extent, and
are all in "good form" So, too, with
the colors; dark green, dark blue, gar
net, ruby, bronze, olive, terra-cotta and
seal brown are all equally fashionable
for street wear. Long cloaks are as
much seen as the jaunty Newmarkets,
and hats and bonnets can hardly be too
large or too small to be considered out
of style.

THE NEW STREET Law.

The San Francisco Bulletin expresses
some doubt about the new street law being
applicable to that city, inasmuch as her
street law is part of her charter, and to
substitute another for it without amending
the charter is of no effect. There is force
in this argument, but it has no application
to Sacramento. Our street law is that
given by an Act of the Legislature, and
the new law simply takes it place. 1t is
to be hoped that the Vrooman bill will not
become entangled by any legal network of
the kind indicated by cur contemporary.
1t is wise law, a much. needed one-rather
severe, but certain, rapid and in violation
of no rights or privileges. 1t, per force,
has to conform to that absurd constitutional
provision which requires all the money
TO be paid in before any work can be pro.
ceeded with, but this is the only hindrance
in the entire bill to street work being done
cheaply, well, and fairly to all proper ty
owners.

TIE SHERIDAN CASE.

II the charge against Sheridan, the al
legged Irish conspirator, is confined to con-
spiracy, this Government cannot consent
to his being delivered to the Queens Off
GERS. Conspiracy is not an offense for
which a man may be returned under the
extradition treaty. We have as yet seen
no charge laid against him that rises above
the political grade. If it is insisted that
the English Government has suspicion
that he was concerned in the Phoenix
Park murders, and no evidence of reasona-
bic probability can be produced. our Gov.
eminent cannot give him up. The princi-
pies involved in the matter of extradition
are too great to be infringed for a mo.
ment, upon mere suspicion, or under the
shadow of crimes that are only political
But if the British Governm ent can bring
Sheridan clearly under any of the pro-
visions specified in the extradition treaty,
to wit: murder, assault with intent to
commit murder, piracy, arson, robbery,
forgery, or the utterance of forged paper,
then Sheridan must go. The case is full
of difficulties for the English Government
It cannot, as the Pail McH Gazette says,
" abandon the position it has heretofore
maintained with regard to extradition, in
the face of Europe" The demand for
Sheridan, it says, if based solely upon the
fact of his belonging to the Irish Invinci-
bles, stands exactly on the same footing as
if Russia had asked for the surrender of

TEE cRuRcH SAVINGS BARK.

The Eren,iag Post OF New York agrees
with our view OF the situation relative to
the failure of the Church Savings Bank at
Lawrence, Massachusetts. L hopes that
church people viii draw wisdom from the
experiment. It appears from The details
now at hand that the managers Of the con-
Germ never made any pretense OF investing
the funds of their depositors in business
way. They esed the money to buiid
churches and church institutions. Il
never dawned upon these worthy and pious
gentlemen, against whom no dishonesty
whatever is charged, that in putting the
peoples money into churches, and then
attempting to repay the people out OF their
own contributions, they would not only be
unable to make interest reward for the
investor, but that there must be dead
loss of the principal by locking it up in the
property. In other words, population OF
several thousand people, congregations of
several thousands of wcrshipers, and
well-intentioned priesthood, seem for
years to have been utterly oblivious of the
fact which grammar. school boy should
comprehend at once, that to collect from
the depositors in al Institution the money
to pay them for the buildings erected with
their money, and out of such contributions
TO return interest, is decidedly more in
sane than the attempt of the chap who en-
deavored to lift himself over fence by the
straps of his boots for, according to the
scheme of the church bankers, not only
was the depozitor to be transported by the
boot-lifts," bnt the pedal coverings were
to be polished en- route by the depositor's
own exertions. What with Catholic say.
ings banks, and Methodist mines, and the
deplorable failures in each case, the church
people will, in time, learn that it is best
for them to leave the handling of filthy
lucre for gain, to the laity. The religious
sentiment should not be invoked as SUBJ
stiEute for business common sense. Hon
esty and good conscience are insufficient
in financiering unless accompanied by bust
ness sagacity.

rHE STAR ROUTE CASE.

Rerdell was corroborated as to the
making up of false books and records by
the star route ring, by ]. w. Donelly, a
Government clerk, and Charles E. Gibbs,
cashier of the Ebbitt House. No better
evidence is needed of the thin ice upon
which the star reuters stand, than the fact
that at the opening OF the defense Wednes-
day in the trial at Washington, they be-
gan with Congressman Belford as witness
to contradict Rerdelps confession as to a
check being drawn for passage OF money
between Balford and Dorsey. Suppose
Rerdell mistook the check to pay for a
shotgun, as to amount, it cannot invali-
date the damaging testimony OF the Gov
eminent witness concerning matters in
which he is corroborated. When lawyer
begins at the wrong end of defense, it
may be taken for granted that he has lost
confidence in his case.

Fl. Stephens, one of the most striking

BETTER BROKEN THAN OBSERVED.

The Latin proverb, De mortuis nil nisi
boauna-let nothing but good be spoken of
the dead-all but loses its application in
the case of the Stebbins funeral in the
State of New York on Tuesday. Stebbins
required, just prior to his death, that his
friends should promise to move to his
grave with his body, in procession, and all
singing Marching Through Georgia, .
concluding the services with the song,
"Good-by, My Love, Good-by." This
strange request was complied with. 1t is
difficult to decide which was the most fool
ish, the request or the compliance. That
the matter concerns funeral, does not
level criticism. There are certain things
due to decency and common civilization,
and cranky requests ante norton should
have no binding effect upon the living
Stebbins may have been shrewd, smart
fellows his friends allege land if SO, it
is but charity to his memory to believe
that he prepared and perpetrated huge
joke upon his comrades, and made them
the absurd victims of most ridiculous
procedure. They should have had better
sense than to outrage the community
in which they live by turning funeral
into a farce. We can readily believe, as
the telegraph states, that the good people
of the town of Cuba were not only aston
ished, but horror-stricken.

where the Office has sought the man, and, we are
glad to say, has found the right one.
He was President of the Fourth Ward Republican
Club during the last campaign, and, it will be re-

THREATENED STRIKES.

Cool observers have believed from tire
first that the tariff bill would produce bad
blood. The rumors of threatened wage re-
ductions and threatened strikes should sur.
prise no one. Until the tariff question is
settled right there will continue to be tur-
mol. Patchwork and halfway measures
make the system all the more obnoxious to
those on whom the burden falls. How.
ever, that the plant now sent up from the
metal manufactures is not entirely sincere,
and that they have purpose in view, it is
safe to conclude. The reduction made
against them is not the sole cause of their
assumed distress. They not only wish
to influence the next Congress, but to
cover the folly of production by cut
ting down the wages of employees, so far SIS
tina. will effect it. It is to be noted that
those manufacturers using the better grades
of metals do not complain much, if at all.
