Press Opinions.

New Orleans Picayune, Dem: Another,
ard a very important point, in Hoadly' favor
is the tariff. The Democrats of Ohio led the
advance of Democratic sentiment on this
question. No state in the Union has sound
er or healthier opinion, and the Ohio people
express themselves clearly and forcihly,
Boston Post, DEM: In the graduating class
of Williams College 26 are free traders, 8favor
a tariff for revenue only, and seven are pro-
tectionists. The editor of the New York
Tribune should take a year at Williams to
learn the difference between free trade and a
tariff for revenue only. He has not found out
that there is one, and consequently his dis
cussions of the tariff question are supremely
ridiculous.
Hartford Times, Dem. The muoh,sopnded
Reorganization of the Republican party OF
New York" is admitted by the New York
Times to be nothing more than sIreorgani-
cation of the machine, y and the Times pre-
diets no good of it. Very true. And how
much longer is it going to be before even the

KENpALL's NARRATIVE CONTINUED.

KHNDALL's NARRATIVE CONTINUED.
We made another early start on the follow
ing morning, winding our way through
rough and steep hills and slowly nearing
the chain of the mountains West of us.
About the middle of the afternoon-it was
the Sth of September, can never forget
the date-we got clear of the hills, and en-
tered a narrow but fertile valley running
nearly East and West. A light fringing of
trees convinced us that the valley was wa
tered by stream larger than we had re-
Gently met with, and with excited feelings
we pressed our jaded animals forward. Our
anticipation of finding a fresh-water stream
were more than realized-we suddenly came
upon the bands of beautiful river of mo It
delicious water, running over bed OF yel-
low sand, and so low that we forded it with
ease. In the vicinity we found trees that
had evidently been cut down by Mexicans.
Remnants of old cart standards and wheels
were also discovered; proof conclusive that
the place had been visited by other than In
dians. With gladdened hearts wo scanned
these evidences of civilization, and even the
keen cravings of hunger were for the mo-
ment forgotten in the anticipation of reach
ing the settlements.
All was now inquiry and speculation as to
the name of the stream we were upon.
Some of our men. and they the wisest. too,
thought that we had either crossed or head
ed Red River, and that we were now upon
one of the southern forks of the Canadian.
Others again, said that if there was such a
stream as Red River above the lower or
middle prairies. this must be it, although
its waters were entirely dissimilar in all re-
spects to what existed in our opinions as the
general features and appearance of that
stream. Then there were two or three men
among us, old trappers and traders, who
had visited Santa Fe by way Of st. Louis,
who said that we were upon Mora, and but
q few miles from San Miguel OF course
nothing certain can be known; but the
more probable conjecture is, tha. We were
now upon the waters Of The Arkansas, and
that we had headed the Red River Of ;he
United States. This cuts OF some two or
three hundred miles from. the length of tie

MementOs OF Monterey.

Since SO much has been recently said and
written of Monterey, fresh interest may
be found in the following spirited poem on
the storming of that city during the war be-
tween the United States and Mexico, by
Charles Fenno Hoffman, which We once be-
fore published IN the FREE PRESS:
sroRMINa OF MONTERREY.
We were not many-we who stood
Before the Iron sleet that day;
Yet many . gallant spirit would
dive half his years II he but could
Have been with us at Monterey.
Now here. now there, the shot Is hailed
In deadly drifts Of fiery spray;
Yet not a single soldier quailed,
when fallen comrades round them walled.
Their dying groans at Monterey.
And on, still on, our column kept
Through walls Of flame Its withering way;
Where fell the dead the living slept,
Still charging on the guns which swopt
The slippery streets Of Monterey.
Tho foe himself recoiled, aghass,
when, striking where the strongest lay.
We swooped Its flaming batteries past.
And Drawing full the murderoua blast,
stormed homo the towers OF Monterey.
Onr banners on the turrets wave,
And there the evening bugles plays
Where orange b0ughs ABOVE tneir gtAVos
Keep green the memory Of the brave
who fought and fell at Monterey.
We were not msny-we who pressed
Beside the brave who fell that day;
Bnt who Of us has not confessed
He'd rather share the warriors rest
Than not have been at Monterey.
Apropos Of the above, we recollect one
stanza of parody on it, written by n NJ.
McGraw of Iowa, Wing of the Tom Cor
win school. Corwin, it will be remembered,
said in public speech that if he were
Mexican he would welcome the invaders OF
his country with bloody hands to hospita.

"Cain, where's your brotheri fearful burst
From Gods own lips In ancient day
And Cain went forth Of God accurst;

In deeds like yours at Monterey.
We give the above simply as reminis'
ence of the history and politics of past
generation.

Commencement.

One Of the most pleasant Of the many
commandments recently held in this city
was that Of the Academic Department Of
the Columbian University, which took place
at Lincoln Hall, on Wednesday evening, the
18th instant The closing exercises Of this
institution are ever favored by the beauty
and refinement Of the Capital City. Young
persons enjoy such occasions by reason Of
the sympathy existing between themselves
and the students whose eyes fash with eager
expectation and whose hearts are throbbing
with hope. The old hear with each buoyant
tone an echo, faint but sweet, from out the
depths Of the distant past, when youths
roses bloesomed ON the cheek and no fur
rowe marked the brow.
An invocation by Rev. DIR. Huntley opened
the exercises, after which Mr.. N. l.. Burchell
delivered polished Latin Salutstory. Dir.
o. @. Males, the next speaker, gave under
the caption, drifting" an interesting, and
at times picturesque, sketch Of the progress
of the human race from savagery 10 civiliza-
ton, from ignorance dark as night to knowl.
edge bright as day. Mr. Males was followed
by Mr.. F. II. Parks, who spoke upon Arctic
