PEIN1ERS S DREAM.

A printer sat In his Office chair, his
boots were patched and his coat thread
bare, and his face looked worn with
cars. While sadly thinking of business
debt, old Morpheus slowly round him
crept and sleeping, he dreamed that he
was dead, from trouble and tell his spirit
had fed, and that not even a cow-bell
tollcd for the peaceful rest Of his cow
hide sole. As he wandered among the
shades, that smoke and scoreh in lower
Hades, he shortly noticed an iron door
that creakingiy swung On hinges ajar, but
the entrance was closed with red-hot
bar, and Satan himself stood peeping out
and watching for travellers thereabout,
and thus to the passing printer spoke:
"Come in my dear, it shall cost you Meth
ing, nevcr fear, this is the place | cook
the ones, who never pay their subscrip-
ton sums, for though in life they may
escape, they viii find when they're dead
it is too late; | viii show you the place
where | melt them thin, with redvhot
chains and scraps Of tin, and also where /
comb their heads with broken glass and
melted lead, and if OF roirs shment they
only think, there's boiling water for them
to drink there's the red4hot grindstone
to grind down his hose. and red-hot rings
to wear in bis toes, and if they mention
they don't like FIRE, I'll sew up their
mouths with red-bat wire; and then,
dear sir, you should see them squirm,
while ! roll them ever and cook to !
turn" With these last words the prin-
ter awoke and thought it all practical
joke, but still times So real did it seem,
that he cannot believe tlmt it was all
dream and often h. thinks with chuc-
klc and grin, of the fate OF those who
save up their tin, anu peyer Iay the

6HELLIN0 PEAS.
BY An OLD CoNTRIBUToR,


TN no longer young and fair,
Aud the gray within my hair,
With my anxious brow Of care
Well agrees;
And memory holds her sway,
As sit alone to-day,
Doing work that seems like play
Smelling peas.
Now the shining pods Of green.
With their eneraids set bel weeA,
Bear me back to sweet sixteen
And its joys;
When beneath Penobscot pines,
We stripped we'll the fruitful vines.
To be offered at home shriues,
Girls and boys.
And we'll remember, too,
When bashful swain did WOO,
That he seemed IS lovers do,
Ill at ease,
Till dear mother, with . smile,
And manner void Of guile,
Set us both to work the while
Smelling peas.
linen our busy nands became
More acquainted, and the shame
Turned 10 something else in name
What You please
While the tender pods they Popped,
And the pretty peas tn y hoped,
Till the last came. then We stopped
Smelling peas.
Then mother would declare
That she heard u sound somewhere
On the earth, or in the mir,
Like kiss;
When .iemuIs us he could be,
John would say, and look at Ae
Twas the popping Of a psa,
Only this"
That was years and years ago.
When the days brought not woe
To my rosy iite below,
Full of ease,
Aye memory holds her sway,
As sit alone to-day,
Doing work that seems like play
Shelling peas.

BANK BUSTED.
John G. Davenport Of Cheney turns
Dsfaultex and skips with between
Forty and Sixty Thousand Dollars.

From A. j., Davis the we'll known
sewing machine agent, who returned yes
terday from the upper country we learn
hat the Bank OF Cheney" Of which
John c. Davenport is President, has bust
ed and its President, with part of his
family, followed in the footsteps Of many
modern bank cashiers. On Saturday
morning last it was noticed by the bust
ness men Of Cheney that the bank did
not open at the usual hour However
no suspicious were excited as John Day
enport was a man who held the entire
confidence Of the people Finally the
cashier of the bank began making inqui-
rics and soon found that Davenport, ac-
eou,panied by his wife and children, had
left on Saturday mornings east bound
passenger train. The cashier then went
to the bank and opened the safe and
found that every dollar deposited there
the evening before was gone. By this
time the news spread about town that
Davenport had become delaulter and
the oycit ment became intense Many
for time refused 10 believe that such
was the case, their confidence in the man
being so unlimited. Those who had de-
pests in the bank upon learning the facts
of the case imm diately began attachin. !.
every available security, real estate, notes,
etc. 1t vas then found that he had been
transferring to ether parties mortgages
and other securities for the past three or
four weeks aud by hasty examination
or the books it was shown that the bai K
of late had been making but few loans,
and those Of but small amounts, while
| the deposits during the same period were
unusually large. A few d.ys prior to
the closing of the bank prominent stock
| man made deposit of $4,000 and an
| other man deposited $4,000. An immi-
| grant, who had just arrived from the
Fast with large family, On Thursday
evening deposited his all-S40o. Mr.
Coombs, who for some time past has beer
in the employ Of A. l.. Davis of this city
had deposited s24o, money that he hsc
saved since he arrived in this Territory
and still another young man who intend
ed ongscing in some small business, los
his entire capital 81 500, by the closinr
of the bank. These are but few instance
Of the many, and it is supposed that tn
deposits lying IN the bank smountcd t
between $4,000 and 100000 A fe-
years ago John c. Davenport failed io
several thousand dollars in the Willamette
Valley and came to this country withou
a dollar and with large family, but viii
good friends and credit he began busi
ness career which at once proved success
ful, and in short time he had acquire
quite competence, and paid every dolla
he owed his creditors. By this msnne
of dealing he won the esteem and conf
dence of the public, who now can oni
attribute his downfall to whisky and gsn,l
, ling. The Oregoniam says: "Pntan

ny GEo. W. JULIAN. Jansen, Nc
Clurg & Co, publishers, Chicago
The above is the title OF a work
quite recently issued from the press
a copy OF which is before us. 1t Gov
ers a most interesting and important
period Of our national history. Du'
ring the greater part Of that time the
author was actively interested in pol
itics, and held positions which gave
him peculiar advantages as an observ-
or of the events described in his book.
During twelve years he was a mem
Der OF the lower house Of Congress,
entering that body while Webster,
Clay, Calhoun, Benton, Houston, and
other political giants were yet on the
stage. He was o member OF the
Committee on the Conduct of the
War, which gave him special insight
into the secret springs Of that great
national struggle. Afterwards for
several sessions no was Chairman Of
the Committee on Public Lands, and
to large extent directed the nation
al policy as to their management in
the interest of actual settlers as
against monopolists. OF course this
book is one OF great interest to stu
dents Of our political history, especi-
ally to young men. We may again
refer to and make some extracts from

member the Republican party in it's
hot youth-when it had conscience
did much toward freeing the color
ed men. But I see that now, the
willing tool Of capital and the banks,
and with thimble-rig system Of ma
tional bonds, it is doing far more to
undermine our institutions and en-
slave the white man. Enthusiastic
young men may be hoodwinked and
worked in harness, blind to what they
are really doing, and ignorant OF who
moves them, like pawns on chess
board. But in fact, the battle to-day
is between man and money, and the
real unseen leaders Of the Republican
party are Shylocks. Privileged and
incorporated.wealth is one of the two
great dangers that here threatens
popular institutions, and the Repub-
lican party is its great servant and
organ. Everylover of liberty should,
therefore, toll and pray for its de-
struction.

The Athens Narrow Gauge, like

The Athens Narrow Gauge, like
great many other sensible papers in
the State, does not like Reagan's ire
marks" on Tilden. It says:
Mr.. Reagan must remember
that he represents an intelligent and
thinking people, many of whom
are sufficiently well posted in politi-
cal matters to know that Mr.. Tilden
is the brainiest man in the Demo
cratic party to-day. 1t will also be
remembered that John Fl. Reagan is
one of the men who joined in the
scheme to swindle Mr.. Tilden out OF
the presidency. But now Mr.. Reagan
abuses Tilden instead Of promising to
stand by him next time and repay the
wrong which he helped to do him. 1t
ia too late to crawfish in this matter
now, Mr.. Reagan, and to serve your
self you must be in shape to fall into
ranks and follow the Tilden banner
in 1884.

Whittier,s New Christmas Poem.

THE SUPPER OF ST. GREGORY.
A tale for Roman guides to tell
To careless, sight-worn travellers still,
Who pause beside the narrow cell
OF Gregory on the C@nisn hill.
One day before the monks door came
A begger stretching empty palms,
Painting and fast sick. in the name
AT the Most High asking aims.
And the monk answered: "All have
In this poor cell of mine, give,
The silver cup my mother gave;
In Christ's name take it thou and hve."
Years passed and called at last to bear
The pastoral crook and keys of Rome,
The poor monk, in st. Peters chair.
Sat the crowned lord Of Christendom.

"And let twelve beggars sit thereat."
The beggars came, and one beside,
An unknown stranger, with them sat.
IL asked thee not" the Pontif spake,
20 stranger; but il need be thine,
bid thee welcome for the sake
OF him who is thy Lord and mine"
A grave calm face the stranger raised,
Like Him who on Gennesaret trod,
| Or his on whom the Chaldeans gazed,
Whose form was al the son of God.
''Knewest thou" he said, "thy gift of old p
And in the hand he lifted up
The Pontif marvelled to behold,
Once more his his mothers silver cup.
''Thy prayers and aims have risen, and bloom
Sweetly among the flowers Of heaven.
am The Wonderful, through whom
whate'er thou askest shall be given"
He spake and vanished. Gregory fell
With his twelve guests in mute accord
Prone on their faces, knowing well
Their eyes Of flesh had seen the Lord.
The old time legend is not vain;
Nor vain thy art, Verona's Paul,
Telling il Ger and DER again
On gray Vicenza's frescoed wall
Still vheresoever pity shares
Its bread with sorrow, want and sin,
And love the beggar's feast prepares,
The unlimited guest comes in.

Unseen, because our eyes are dim,
He walks our earth The Wonderful,
And all god deeds are done to Him
