at Sotre Dame Convent near CincinnsILI
At asst drear Winter to his ice-bound home,
Recalled the boresl winds, with him 70 roam

Whilst Spring with US her fragrance shed around;
And BY her perfumed breath and magic wand,
Awoke the sleeping flowers which winters bond

Again came forth, and oe- the somOer grouad
olce more was spread a messy carpet round,
Came softly in, thIice hailed by shrubs and
Its warning presence coaxed the timid buds,
Which, peeping forth TO balhe In sun6esms'
floods,
Their Tiny petals oped. and to our eyes
Disclosed their sny-colsred tIfs dyes;
Add oft We walked the orchards cooling shade,
Where falling blooms mimic snow-storn made,
And saw, with fancy's eye, the tI1lt trees oend
Meath lusc Gus burdens Nature kind would send,
For in each blossoms breal hing perfumed cell
We saw embryo fruit TO ripeness swell
Then distant woodlands tempted mondays rest
While Joyous shouts our merriment expressed,
And rambling near the brOoklets warbling bank,
We from its crystal GOODNESS laughing drank-
Then wandering lar DER blooming hill ana dAlei
Meath giant trees that caught the breeze's wall,
We walked the birds from out the leafy nest
Aud broke upon the wi flowers scented rest.
still on we roamed and in each fairy nook
New beauties dawned at each admitting look,
While distance with its veil of yapory blue,
To nearer scenes eer lent loVeller nue.,
For as We gazed upon its emerald gades

| On blooming cOyer's sweet, delicious bed,
And bleating Jocks, with scamperlng lambs al

| On Springtime's undulating landscape lay.
But soon a distant sound broke on the ear,
/ For silvery convent chimes rang loud and clear

suaARx Rur NOT SWEET.

bOoAo NJ NOh .
The Louisiana sugar interest is not only
an intolerable burden to the country from
the heavy sums it exacts as tribute from
every family in the United States-two and
one-half cents on every pound OF sugar they
use-but it il public nuisance in the way
that it interferes with public policy, wrench
ing it to their own advantage at the expense
of the public interest. The Mexican treaty,
which is 30 essential Tor the preservation Of
amicable relations between two nations
about to become closely united, was put off
on account of their miserable sugar crop
which, they say themselves, never pays them
to grow and therefore they have to live OF
the public taxes. We have a treaty with
Hawaii, and this the same sugar-growipg
tax-eaters have been moving heaven and
earth to have broken, alledging that the
merchants there import sugar from China
and send it to the United States as Hawaiian,
thus escaping the payment OF duty upon 1t.
Under instructions from the Secretary
Honolulu has investigated the charges and
found them perfectly false. No more satis-
factory document could exist than this Of
Minister Daggetfs. He tells what Chinese
ships arrived there last year-there were
only four of them-and what their freight
was; not a hogshead Of sugar was among it.
He then shows that to bring Chinese sugar
to the Hawaiian Islands, land and mix with
Hawaiian sugar, and reship, added TO the
cost of the sugar in China, would cost more
than the sugar would sell for; also that the
years product of Hawaiian sugar was below
the aversge production. Mr.. Daggeti, in con.
elusion, expresses his own conviction that the
whole Chinese sugar story has no foundation
in fact. Thus, not only must the Louisians
people monopolizs large share of the pub
lie taxes, but also interfere with the treaty
making power in support Of their miserable
sugar trade. 1t is insolent and intolerable
1t is time they went into growing corn or cot
ton that will pay, and left of sugsr-growiDs
| that will not, 70 that they may be able tC
| maint ain themselves as go, d citizens do gen
| orally, by their own labor and not by meani
of public taxes.

MEmPHIANs IN ST. LOUIS.


ST. LOUIS, April 21.-Frank Taylor wa
fined SO and costs in Judge Denisen's court
for disturbing the peace of Jacob Leubrie, a
member of the 6rM of Leubrie Bros., the
merchants, on Seventh and Franklin ave-
nue.. Mr.. Leubrie testified on the stand that
Taylor came from Memphis recently,
where he himself had previously known
him. Taylor came to him and borrowed
81, and a day or two after came
and borrowed 81 more, SAYING that
he had got situstion ss shorthand reporter
aud would promptly return the loan on Sat
urday night last. Mr.. Lsubrie has not seen
him since until yesterday noon, when he had
him arrested by Officer Bill King, in the
Lindell Hotel. As Mr.. Leubrie was about
to enter his store yesterday morning he was
told that he had better not enter, as u man
had been there and threatened to shoot him.
He, however, did 60 into the store, and had
no trouble. alter Piersou, clerk in Leu
brie's store, testified that Taylor had callcd
at the store early yesterday morning. lie
inquired for Jacob Leubrie and saId that he
would kill him. Taylor then left the
store. Al noon yesterday, while MIR.
Leubrie was taking his dinner at
the Lindell, he received a message to
the effect that some one wanted to see him IN
the rotunds of the hotel. Thinking that the
mao wanting 10 see MIN WAS L ay ior ne Sent
one of the walters down TO see ii his idea as
correct. He found it WIS, and notified OH.
Ger King to arrest Taylor Taylor on the
| stand testified that he was under the inf l.
ence of liquor, and positively said that he
knew nothing of being at Leubrie's store,
nor did he entertain any ill-feelings againsi
the young gentleman. Mr.. Leubrie, before
leaving the court, asked Judge Denison to
stay the execution, as he thought that Tay-
lor must have been drunk, or he would moi
have acted the way he did.

PROTECTIONIsT POLICY.

One of the objects the protectiouis;s have
much at heart is 10 get all the internal rev.
enue taxes abolished, which means no tax
on whisky, no tax On tobacco, but heavy
tax on the sugar we consume, and on our
coats and hats. In this way all the revenue
would have to be raised from taxing Imports,
and the amount required would be so great
that it would form good, strong tsrif,
which would protect the tax-eaters effectu-
ally. Let the people get drunk on cheap
whisky and the poor dress in rags and 90
without sugar in their tea aud coffee, hut do
not snatch his prey from the haads oil
the mouopolist. By the protec.ionist
scheme tax for revenue only Is per-
vertsd into tax for protection solely. The
New York Sun is "ranning" this sagacious
scheme for the benefit Of the monopolists,
its propositions are-a tariff for revenue
which viii be also protective-the tariff to
be The only source of revenue-the tax on
splits to be retained to pay the arrearsges
Of pensions; this done, abolish that tax also.
The New York Times regards this scheme as
an lD2enlOusly 'uicStoA chSiuC VI WdilaICf
which could be simed, like the celebrated
hunters shot, $50 as 10 hit if it is a deer and
mics If it is a calf" The Times regards il as
proposition to repeal the reductions made
in the late tariff revision, and for an ad-
vance all along the line to the old war rates.
The annual amount of national revenue re-
quired is S224 100000. Last year the whole
amount of revenue from the tariff was $780,
139, 900, figures that show what magnif-
cent haul the moSopolists would make if the
Suns propositions were adopted. Evidently
the Sun shines for all-who get great deal
and want to get a great deal more. The
New York World very sensibly I,sRefs
as q substitute for the ppeSarica-
ting jesuitisms of the Sun the following
sound and rational propositions: No more
money to be collected than the government
fairly needs; no duty to be imposed beyond
the lowest rate which will yield the largest
amount Of revenue-below such rate either
q descending scale Of Discrimination. or,
where proper, entrance on the free list; the
highest duty imposed to be placed upon
luxuries.

THE PANAMA. CANAL.

News fro-, the Pansms canal shows that
the great work is going on. There are many
who still regard the whole matter as wild
project, but they do not know DeLssseps-
The English regarded the Suez canal as :
wild project, for neither did they know
DeLssseps, snd it cost them millions to buy
an interest in the wild plan, and they have
made war 10 protect the results of that
wild plan. There has been come trouble
among the workmen on the isthmus, but
those who msnag, d the Arabs and the fell
laheen in Egypt are not to be conquered by
the quarrels Of negroes and Indians. The
Panama Company have bought the Panama
railroad, which we thought it 80 great a
thing to build. A vast amount OF prepare
tory clearing, building, surveying, inyestigs-
ton Of the soil and underlying rocks,
and constructing plans has been done,
and implements aud machinery bought
and put on the spot. Borings show that but
little hard rock is to be encountered, the cut
ting will be mostly through soil. Marine
Investigations show ihat there will be no
great trouble from the tides. Heavy con-
tracts have been let out 10 responsible par
ties. The canal bottom will be cut seventy
two feet wide; the deepest cutting will be
800 feet down, with surface width OF 426
feet. Five thousand men are at work on
this gigantic enterprise. Everybody will
wake up startled at what is doing some of
these mornings, then We shall have fine

TILE rIusH r1nEs or ornEk DAY.

THE FLUSH TIMES OF OTHER DAYS.
The present boom in the Mississippi river
is typical of the boom in the general pros
perity of Memphis. The outlook for our
city has never been 90 encouraging as now.
The business aspect reminds US OF the Hush
times of other days, when the increase oil
population was checked for the want Of
house-room, and new business houses and
private residences were built with the money
paid in advance for rents. More new build
ings are Row going up than at any time
since the war. In every part of the city, or
almost every street, will be seen evidences Of
prosperity. Desirable houses are No longer
vacant. The old, familiar sign, "For Rent, y
has disappeared, and the demand for COED
houses is equal to the supply. With The
fnsl settlement of the city debt and
the completion of the several rail-
roads leading into Memphis, our city will
bound into a prosperity unequsled by any
Southern city and unsurpassed BY lew in the
whole country. Capitalists are already or
gauiziur to invest in this city. CO.. c. P
Bethel has an abiding faith in the future oil

THE POLITICAL DUDE -

When H. Cabot Lodge first invented the dodge
Il hope the remark isn't rudel
or parting his head with bevel and square
He became tn political dude.
Oh marvel is he and as sweet as can be
No matter however he's viewed;
His brains are not scaht, he's the pride OF NRhan
And the daisy political dude.
And George William Curtis most horribly hurt IA
George william, the delicate prude-
To see this young man take the lead of the clan
And knock 'em all out as q dude.
He's a gent you can't buy, and TO principles high
He is purely and perfectly glued
scholar most real, a statesman ideal,
And daisy and duck of q dude.
With nerve and with brain he'll direct the cam
paign
Next autumn in masterful mood,
And even when beat, he still will be sweet,
And, better than all, be dude.
All men must delight in the beautiful sight
of his hair msthematically slowed
To right aud to left with an equable heft,
But that is the trick Of the dude.

With a sense of what's proper imbued,
Having nothing 10 say. in vacuous way.

great weight. Such facts as these speak
volumes, and ought to drown the croakings
Of the Clssapdras COTS an;ly predicting evil.
l. will soon be demonstrated that in The
SJutb, and especially here in Memphis
c ty located in the heart Of the richest coun-
try on earth-is the best and most promising
field for enterprise and investment in the
whole country. Everyone who takes the
pains to investigate the matter, coma from
whatever section or country he may, arrives
at the same conclusion. No city can groS
and prosper without public spirit on
the part Of its citizens. This WAS
true before the war, bat it is
more obvious since the war, as methods have
changed with time in every department Of
science-physical and metaphysical-and 10
they do in the philosophy Of business. A
quarter Of a century sgo there wzs slow,
easy going, old-fogy way about the eoI /
which would be entirely out of place now.
This il q fast age, and America is pre-smi-
nentIy high-pressure country, and The busi-
ness world must move on with energy and
according to the new methods. One of the
| methods 10 for commercial centers to prese nj
such attractions at stated periods Of the year
as will induce country merchants and
strangers to visit them. Approaching this
fact, the people of Memphis will in the fu-
ture push forward every project calculated to
draw a large crowd. The races lsst week
drew 10 Memphis an immense concourse OF
people. The hotels have been taxed to their
utmost capacity 10 accommodate visitors;
the teening M asses blockading the principal
streets gave the city the appearance of the
flush times when each day added a large
accession TO our population. All the
varied business interests pro6ted more OF
less by the attractions of the past week, and
the approaching Music Festival will draw &c
our city the best people Of the South. Cold
calculating business men, to whom there il
no music save in the clink Of silver dollsrs
may express contempt for shriskiDg
sopranos, screaming teuors and believing
bases, but they will discover in the END
that the musical festivals which they
deprecate will add to the silver music which
they love so fondly. The. Mozart Society is
the beginning OF school Of music estab
lished by capable workers, am ateur and pro
fessional, which will impress itself upon tht
country. From this germ a healthy, vigor
GUS musical college will gradually grow up
giving annual and semi,aunual festivals
which will add thousands 10 the population
of Memphis and ilions to its wealth. 10
deed, our city has commenced new career
taken new start in the race to greatness
Our people have discovered the necessity o
making the city attractive, and prosperity
culture, Improvement, and The building al
Of our Institutions will he the grand, grAdua
result. Unless all signs prove delusive, Mem
pbis has bright future.
