RELEASED.

In response to a request received
some weeks ago we give space to the
following verses. They appeared
some years since in the Courier-Jour-
nal, but are worthy of republication.
The history that called forth the
poem was the death of a Southern
prisoner of war at Camp Chase, Ohio,
who, while plning Of sickness in the
prison hospital there, confded to his
friend and fellow-captive, Col. W. S.
Hawkins, that he was heavy of heart
because his aflianced bride at Nash
vile, Tenn, did not write to him. A
letter from her arrived just after his
death, in which the lady curtly broke
the engagement. Col. Hawkins had
been requested to open any letter
which might come for him after his
death, and, upon reading the letter,
penned the lady the following versi-
fled answer:
Your letter, lady, came too late,
For heaven had claimed its own;
All, sudden ehanye-from prison bars
Unto the great white throne!
And set think he would have stay ed
To live for his disdain,
Could he have read the careless words
Which Won have sent I'm vain
So full OF patience did he wait,
Through many a weary hour,
That Ger his simple soldier faith
Not even death had power;
And yon-did others whisper low,
Their homage In your ear,
As though amongst their shallow throng
Ills spirit had peerf
would that you were by me now,
To draw the sheet aside,
And see how pure that LOOK he wore
The moment when he died.
Tho sorrow that you gave to him
Had left It's weary trace,
AS 'tvere the shadow Of the cross
Upon his pailid face.
''IIer loye," he said, "eould change for me
The winters cold 10 spring."
All. trust Of nckie msiden's love,
Thou art bitter thing!
For when these valleys, bright In May,
Once more " iih blossoms wave,
The northern violets shall blow
Above his humble grave.
Your dole OF scauty words had been
But one more pang 10 bear.
For him who kissed unto the last
Your tress OF golden hair.
did not put Vt where he said,
For, when the angels come,
I would not have them find the sign
OF falsehood In the tonb.
I've read your letter, and know
The wiles that you had wrought
To win that noble heart Of his,
And gained it-crucl thought!
What lavish wealth men sometimes give
For what Is worthless all;
What manly bosoms beat for truth
In foiIy's falsest thIall
You snail not pity him, for now
Ills sorrow has an end;
Yet would that you could stand with me
Besides my fallen friend;
And forgive you for his sake,
Ashe-if It be given
May cen be pleading grace for you
Before the court Ufheaven.
To-nignt the cold winds whistle BY,
AS my vigil kecp
Within the prison dead house, where

F1NERTY IS FURIOUS.

The Chicago Congressman and Land
Lacquer Again Warns tho Pope TO Be
wsro-Vigorous Language.
In Saturdays issue Of tho Weekly Citizen,
Of Chicago, Congressman Finerty, himself
Roman Catholic editorially replies In vigor-
Gus language TO the writers and speakers who
have denounced his proposition to boycott "
the pope until he changes his tactics ON Irish
affairs. Ho refers to tho publishers of two
Catholic papers at Philadelphia and Now Or
leans as poor devil fellows, who are the Dugald
Dalgettys in everything but chivalry of tho
profession, and says they are parasites OF
whom both pope and bishop should bo rid.
On the main questionhe says that the reign
ing pope has been shamefully deluded by q
gang Of pro-British confidence operators, and
declares that il the Irish race do not resent the
unwise interferences of the pope in behalf of
British rule they will be worthy of lasting
execration. In conclusion, he says There
must be no misapprehenslon in this matter.
/ Pope Leo XIII understands human nature
too we'll to suppose that filial affection can
long survive paternaf hardness. IT. as re-
ported, he Is preparing an encyclical letter
that will 60 beyond even the unfortunate
disapproval of the Parnell fund, he will only
succeed in arousing bitterness in breasts OF
an afflicted people who desire to love and
honor him as their spiritual father. He will
widen the breach between himself and the
most faithful element of his flock ho will
lose what little temporal influence he has now
in Ireland. Not even the bishops and the
priests, much as they are venerated, can stem
the tide Of national indignation. He will
hurl the Irish nation TO the brink
of schismatical abyss. He will
mar tho fiery faith that has
withstood the shock Of persecution and the
fierce agony of ages He will go down into
history as the man who improved upon Eliza
beth and Cromwell and William and the
Georges in having driven Catholic Ireland
4 into passionate revolt against the head of
the religion for which her children's blood
went out in generous torrents, for love and
devotion are not proof against evident con-
tempt of national sentiment and evident do
sire to cultivate the victor at the expense OF
the vanquished. And, then, what will Eng
land do2 She, having accomplished her OBJ
ject, will drop the pope like hot potato,
and tho Catholic religion will have again to
lament papal interference in things that are
only of the earth"

Shot Down In Cold Hood.

BURLINGTON, Iowa, June IA report has
been received here from Unionville, Mo-, that
farmer named Lawson was shot and in
stantly killed in Putnam county under cir
cumstances that have caused great excite
ment throughout that neighborhood. 1t ap-
pears that neighborhood feud had existed
for some time in Elm township, Putnam
county, and last March man, Mcmahon,
mysteriously disappeared and nothing was
heard of him afterward. Some of his friends
a short time ago became possessed of informa-
tion that led to thorough search, and to-day
McMahon's body was found in the brush a
short distance from his residence, whore it
had evidently been lying for a long time.
While the searching party stood about the
dead body the men were fired upon by some
concealed person, and Lawson fell dead. A
young man named May is suspected of both
murders. The whole eastern end of Putnam
county is In a fermont over the occurrence.

GIVE us PROTECTION.
TO Lhe Editor.

SIR; The person who signs himself "Sub-
scriber" in The REPUBLICAN, Of this morning
is under the impression that "our companios''
are big things with their fancy offices and
small capital. There is only ono company
here, and that's the "Arlington," who could
do business in New York. Ono first class fire
would wipe out their small surplus, Then he
talks about how promptly they paid the loss
up on tho Jefferson school building, but
not word does he say about the de-
lay in paying G. w. Thorn & Co.'s
loss, Then he says the surplus of the
district companies reach nearly three mill
ions. The reports Of all the district COM
panies except one and made by themselves,
and pu blished in the stock exchange report
fot this year. We would like to know where
this great American calculator learned how
to count. Here is the total Of all these sur
/, plus added together Except one company:
1898, ,573-quite difference from $3000,000.
These little companies do lots of blowing,
They may be lying when they say the sur
plus is S)S3,573. Give us an insurance com
missioner. and if the officers of these great
companies do not comply TO the law in these
reports punish them, RANGER,

A Wealthy Farmer DlsCrnced.

MILWAUKEE, juno 3.-There was an affect
ing scene in the United States court at noon
yesterday. George II. Daubner of Brook
field, Waukesha county, who was recently
convicted of obtaining a pension by fraud,
was arraigned for sentence. He is a well-to-
do farmer, worth $4,000 or $4,000, and has
held number of important positions in tho
past dozen years. He is rugged looking
man, 43 years old. 1t was proved that he
obtained pension arrears amounting TO $500
and $20a month for catalepsy, which he al
legged he contracted by exposure in the army,
while, in fact he was only In the army a few
months, and never saw any service. His fits
were feigned. He was accompanied by his
wife, and both wept bitterly when the court
pronounced the sentenco-a term of three
years at hard labor in the Chester Qll.) prison.
The case owing to the prominence of the
prisoner, has attracted considerable attention.
