REALITY.

Apples are ripe! Apples are rfpe!"
Forth to the harvest children four.
With boyish shout and girfish pipe,
From house TO orchard gleeful pour.
And from the windows smi'e s face,
Pink rs the blossoms lor = ago. u
Now careworn with the t1uch of years,
Blue eyes that lingering gaze, then turn
To scan the chiidren's stockings.
Piled high the basket stands. The socks
The baby wears, the gaping rent
In schoolboy's hose. and some with clocks
A'maiden's wears. On work intent
The mother sits and weaves the threads,
As years ago she sat and dreamed.
Lover and kingdoms came: but stiii
Life Is not what to her 1t seemed
In Spring-time darning stockings.
The love she dreamed of now Is hers:
But love brings work, ii love Is true.
The breeze of Spring that family stirs.
Blows- clouds across the summer blue.
Alike to serving maid and Queen
Comes work for lover, childrcsl, friend.
Lies fabrics strain beneath life's wear,
There's always one more rent to mend.
There's always darniug stockings.

Much has been said against the Nor
mon system of collecting tithes for the
benefit of the Church, yet it is not as
bad as the system in vogre for perpetu-
ating the power of party by taxing
Federal employees. In the Mormon
case, the tithes paid the Church are
derived from the proceeds of the labor
OF the dupes who pay them, but in the
other case the salaries of employees
are increased to enable them to pay

er, while the whole people, irrespective
of party, are taxed those salaries.

Boss Malone, Virginia, is levying
more assessment on Federal office
holders in his State than "My dear
Hubbell" did prior to the last Presi-
dental election, when there was gen.
eral complaint against his exactions.
According to ex-Congressman Dusen-
dorf, who, through lifelong Republi-
can, detests the repudiator Malone,
the ex-Brigadier has levied the third
assessment within year on the Fed
eral office holders in the Old Dominion.
Dusendorf says that the assessments
amount to five per cent. of the salaries
received by the employees at the Nor
folk Navy Yard and in custom houses
and postofiices throughout the State,
and he has called the attention of the
Civil Service Commission to the fact.

EXILE LIFE IN SIBERIA.
A Horrible state of Affairs in the
Russian Penal Colony.

On the 10th Of June a steamboat ar.
rived at st. Petersburg from Tioumen,
towing transport with 664 prison
ers on board bound for Siberia. The
transport had a terrible passage.
Caught in the ice, it was delayed six
days ia the trip from Tioumcu to
Tomsk. On account of this delay the
prisoners, on their arrival at the lat
ter town, were in deplorable condi-
ton, deprived Of everything, aud in
fected with diphtheria, typhus, small
pox and other diseases. Two days
afterward there came from Tioumen
another transport with 538 prisoners.
Finally, on the 2lst of June, "a third
vessel came with 100 of those unfort-
unates. The prison was too small for
these 1900 people, but, nevertheless,
they were crammed into it. Among
these were 100 political prisoners, and
this fact is noteworthy, since it cannot
be aScertained from whence they came.
Whether they are condemned to ban
hhment or penal servitude in the
mines, nobody knows. Neither can it

The Pivot Of 1884.

1t is morally certain that the Forty
eighth Congress win be in session when
both parties make their Presidential
nominations next year, whether the
Conventions be called early or late.
From the first that session will be al
most wholly given up TO the. manufactr
ure of political capital to be used for
campaign purposes. Without attempt
ing to forecast the plottings and coun-
terplottings of the next session at w ASH
ingten, or to predict what is really
wholly uncertain, it may be well to take
account, in a leisurely way, when no
contest Is upon us, Of q few, cardinal
facts or factors In the case, and discover
If possible the probable pivot of 1884.
In 1880 there were $50 electoral votes;
In 1884 under the last census and ap-
portionment, there viii be 4O1 votes.
The lowest number of votes possible to
an election in 1880 was 1S5; IN 1884 it
win require 201. q Garfield received 214
to Hancock,s i155. The States which
voted for Garfield have made an ag-
gregate gain of H., 20 gross gains and
three losses. The States OF Maine,
Vermont and New Hampshire each lost
one, and the gains were: California, p;
