POETRY

How the Woman Went from Dsver.-1883.
The tossing spray OF Cocheco's fall
Hardened to ice on Its rocky wall,
As through Dover town, In the chill, gray dawn.
Three women passed, at the cart tail dfawnl
By the meeting house in Salisbury town
The sufferers stood, In the red shutdown,
Bare for the lash o plying Night,
Drop swift thy curte.l and hide the sight
with shame in his eye and wrath on his lip,
The Salisbury constable dropped his whip.
" This warrant means murder foul and red;
Cursed Is he who serves II, y he said.
"show me the order, and meanwhile strike
A blow at your peril n said Justice Pike
OF all the rulers the land possessed,
Wisest and boldest was he, and best.
He scoffed at witchcraft : the priest he met
AS man meets man his feet he set
Beyond his dark age, standing upright,
soul-free, with his face TO the morning light
file read the warrant: "These convey
From our precincts; at every town on the way
Give each ten lashesr' "God Judge the brute
| tread his order under my foot
"Cut loose these poor ones and let them go;
Come what Will OF 1t, all men shall know
No warrant is good, though backed by the Crown
For whipping women in Salisbury town.
The hearts of the villages, half released
From creed OF terror and rule OF priest,
BY primal instinct owned the right
OF human pity In laws despite.
For ruth and chivalry only slept,
His Saxon manhood the yeoman kept;
quicker or slower, the same blood ran
In the Cavalier and the Puritan.
The Quaker sank on their knees In praise
And thanks. A last, low sunset blaze
Flashed out from under cloud, and shed
A golden glory on each bowed head.
The tale Is one of an evil time,
When souls were fettered and thought was crime
And heresy's whisper above its breath
Meant shameful scourging and bonds and death :.
What marvel, that hunted and sorely tried,
Even woman rebuked and prophesied,
And soft words rarely answered back
The grim persuasion of whip and rack
II her cry from the whipping post and jail
Pierced sharp as the Kenifes driven nail,
woman, at ease in these happier days,
Forbear to judge OF thy sisters waysi
dow much thy beautiful life may owe
To her faith and courage thou canst not know,
Nor how from the paths OF thy calm retreat
she smoothed the thorns with her bleeding feet

More Confidence Shown In Railroad Stocks
and Bonds.
The action ofthe Chicago, Burlington & Quincy
road, in offering to pay in advance at a rebate
of per cent, interest all the coupons of the com
pany falling due in the next three months, has
brought out the important fact that a number OF
the leading railway lines, such as the Rock
Island, Chicago & Northwest Milwaukee & St
Pail, New York Central. Lackawanna, Union
Pacific, Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe, Baltimore
& Ohio, Chicago, Burlington & Quincy, and 9th
ers. are earning larger dividends than they are
paying. and those companies which are not
actively engaged in new work have overflowina
treasures. Other roads which are not paying
dividends are earning handsomely in excess OF
fixed charges, and are destined to be added to
the dividend-paying list before long. Such facts
as these naturally have tendency to restore

An Unfavorabla Omen.

In speaking of the recent sharp drop in the
price OF steel tails, the Pittsburg Dispatch says
the most salient feature Of last week was the
decline in Bessemer steel rails to $35 and the
consequent restriction IN operations by our
mills. There is probably little room for doubt
that the decline has brought the price down to
about the level OF first cost But the history of
.hat trade heretofore has been so remarkably
profitable that IT should be able to stand the
strain Of considerable adversely without danger
The principal source Of trouble in the matter
win unquestionably be the dispute which is sure
