young manhooAssa have ever known
was young fellow student named Hen
ry Haines. As IN athlete on the campus,
as scholar in the school-room, rs an
orator III the arena of debate, he was
facle princeps, everywhere and always.
We were not so much envious of him as
proud Of him, and we fondIy fancied that
there could be no height of fame or fort
une too difficult for his adventurous feet
to climb, and that the time would come
when he would fill the world with the echo
of his fame, and it would be proud thing
for any of us 10 declare that we had known
him. A little tendency to dissipation
was by some of us observable-a little
dash of dare-deviltry-but this was only
the wildcat sowing which was natural
to youth and genius, aud which we did
not doubt that after years would chasten
and correct.
But the years came and the years
went, and tho Young collegians were
scattered through The world, and ever
and anon wouid some os Us wonder what
could have become Of Henry Haines.
We looked in vain far his rising star,
and listened long for his coming feet.
Some time ago for Il single Sabbath, L
was preaching il Now York. My theme
in the morning had been "The Ghost of
Buried Opportunity" On my way to
my hotel discovered that ] was "shad-
owed" by desperate,looking wretch,
whose garb, whose gait, whose battered,
bloated look all Enthusiastically betokened
the spawn of the slums. What could
the villain want with ne? [ paused at
my door, and faced about to confront
him. He paused, adyapced, and then
huskily whispered Henson, do you
know meT | assured him / did not.
whereupon he continued, "Do you re-
member Henry Baiues ?'- "Aye, aye,
well enough, well enough, but surely
you are not Henry Haines?' 81 am
what is left of him-I am the ghost Of
him." | shuddered as / reached for his
hand, and, gazing intently into his face,
discovered still some traces of my long
lost friend, still doubly lost, though
found again. lput my arm about him
in brotherly embrace, and drew him to
my room. and drew from his lips the
sad story of his shattered life. Ibegged
him by the old loves and unforgotten
memories of better days to go back with
me to my Philadelphia home, and, I'M
der new auspices and with new sur
roundings, to strike out for noble des-
tiny, which I hoped might still be pos
sible. But, striking his eIenched fist on
my table, he said; +" lsRon, it's no use
to talk to me I--beat, and am
dead BY )ut volcano,
and thel. lme but Gin
ders now. have New York to
bury myself out of sig .all that ever
loved me. 1 know the re 5es here, and
shall stay here till 1 rot. I live in
nluskrat hole near the wharf. l shall
die as L have lived, and l have lived like
q dog"
In vain were my earnest protests and
brotherly, pleading. He tore himself
from me, and went shambling off to his
den by the wharf.
He had sowh the wind and was reap.
ing the whirlwind. He had sown 70 the
flesh, and was reaping corruption. He
had-sown "wild oats. and the oats were
now yielding a dread harvest of woe. -

could be discussed and the plan for ap-
pointing commission thoroughly repre-
sentative in character agreed upon. The
Commission itself will thus be able to get
to work early in 1884, and should the Gov
ernor deem it proper for him to do SO, he
will have ample time in which to name Off
cial Commissioners to act, at least in an
honorary capacity, with those OF the citi-

since there is no appropriation by the
State under which to conduct the prepar-

be done is to do something, and in its
doing no time should be lost.

ONE OF DR.. GRBEs.s oBJsc1Ioas.


Human trust must be reposed some
where. Against the assaults of self-inter-
est there is resistance only by the honest
man who desires his own self respect. We
strongly advocate the establishment of a
postal telegraph system, but we shall not
close our eyes to any possible defects TO
which it may be subject. Like all human
institutions, we expect it to be defective
we anticipate that bad men will seek to use
it, when in Office, to further personal and
even party ends, and against such evils
there must be erected ali possible guards.
Now, there is force in the testimony OF
DR.. Norvin Green, the President of the
Western Union Telegraph Company, given
before the Blair Senate Committee in New
York the other day. "Would it be safer
to have messages go through the hands of
the Government or through the hands of a
private corporation ?" the Chairman asked.
THAT is matter of opinion, DIR. Green
responded sit is always necessary for
somebody to handle the messages. l dom t
believe the public would consider them
safe in the hands of the Government ;
that is to say, if an Administration was
contending for reelection, and had con-
troll of the telegraph, if its members
were ever so honest, and ever SO scru-
pulous in the preservation of the
secrecy of messages, the other side
would not believe they were, and would
not like to trust them with messages.
But while admitting the force of this
objection, it is in order to ask what assur-
ance has the public that the officials of
the private corporation are any more
honest than they estimate politicians to
be? As human beings they are actuated
by the same motives and Influenced by the
same selfshness. There is no political
campaign in which they will not have a
choice. and probably none in which they
will not have direct interest, to say moth
ing of their interest in financial move
ments. Legislation will affect them, and
therefore they have every motive to exer-
else control over it. The employees of
the private company are numbered by the
thousand. They are under the obligations
of honesty and the fear of the law only.
The employees of the postal telegraph sys-
TEN will not only be charged by fear of
the Penal Code and the admonitions of
conscience, but will be under oath. While
a great corporation can insure the keeping
of its secrets public department is SUBJ
ject to the Investigation and scrutiny, all
the time, of the political opponents
of the Administration, and to the in.
quiries liable to result from the mutations
of politics. In addition, the system of
civil service to be applied to the postal tel.
egraph will in itself be guard and shield
against fraud more potent than any private
company can throw about it's system, and
It's rewards and punishments will be greater
inducements to honesty than any discipline
a private company can possibly enforce.

FRANCE AND CHINA.

The suzerainty claimed by China over
Anam is of the fimsiest character. In
fact, it is a mere pretense. II is in history
that the Celestial Empire at one time
claimed that great nation of Europe
should pay her tribute. If we had
not been weak, her claim over Corea would
never have been recognized. China has
no earthly right in Anam, nor to claim any
subordination to her on the part of the lat
ter. France will resist the claim, and
China, after deal of bravado, will retire,
and no more will be heard of her preten-
sions,

The Mechanics Institute Fair Directory has always
so managed to that Fair in opposition to the
State Fair. The narrowest kind and most il'iberal
