favor of any one OF them is concerned. There has
been no movement organized here in favor of any

The only signs Of life given thus far have been by

THE NEwsBou,s DREAM.

BY EDMUND LYONS.
The poor little newsboy YVES lying
Concealed by the half-open door,
Exhausted with helplessly trying
To sell all the papers he bore.
But still great pile was beside him,
And. placing it under his head,
Regardless of what might betide him,
He slept as though safely in bed.
He was homeless and sad and forsaken,
But in slumber his sorrows slept, too:
His hand by another was taken,
And-gurely, that warm clasp he knew?
His mother! All, yes. and she guided
His steps from the city q dull noise
To the old mountain stream, and beside it
Stood an army Of rosy-cheeked boys,
He knew them all we'll. No confusion
Was here. The long nightmare was past.
The town-life was all delusion,
He was home with his mother at last.
He longed in his arms to enfold her,
His eyes had grown tear-flled and dim,
While the night in the passage grew colder,
But morning was dawning for Aini
He lay cold and still as the gray light
Crept in through the half-open door
poor little boy whom the daylight
Could disturb or awaken nolmOre.
His kind, with their own burdens bending,
Have nc time to lament those who fall;
They swept on in their labor unending,
Bat the newsboy w1s freed froH it all!

Hon. Thos. p. Ochiltree.


propossr Of the Famous Lasker Reseiu-
ton.
There is probably no other Representa-
tive in the Forty-eighth Congress whose
name is more frequently mentioned
throughout the United States, and even in
foreign countries, than is that of the above
Congressman from Texas. This sudden
notorlety has been due to Mr.. Ochiftree's
introduction few weeks ago. in the House
of Representatives, of the now famous
Lasker resolutions, which Prince Bismark
has thrust back upon Congress with the in
timation that our country should attend to
our own affairs. This insult stirs the
American heart to resent it, and brings
Mr.. Ochiltree into national prominence
in connection with the affair which will
perpetuate his name in our civil history.
Mr.. Ochiltree is resident of Galveston,
Texas, and the first native Texan ever
elected to our Congress. He represents
twenty-seven counties, which compose the
seventh district, and comprise over $1,000
square miles Of territory, reaching from
Galveston on the gulf, to Eagle Pass on
the upper Rio Grande. He was elected to
Congress as an Independent by majority
exceeding 5000 votes over Findiay, the
Democratic candidate.
After receiving limited education in the
public schools of his State, at the age of II
he became private in the Texas Rangers,
and was engaged in the campaign against
the Apache and Comanohe Indians in 1854
55. When the war broke out Mr.. Ochiltree
went in the Confederacy, and his war rec
ord on the stats of Generals Green, Tay-
lor and Sibley is replete with incidents of
bravery that would have been more profita-
bic in better cause. But when the victori-
ous army of the North had suppressed the
rebellion, Col. Oehiltree accepted the new
order of things in good faith, and in time
was appointed United States Marshal of
Texas by President Grant, and thereafter-
was appointed United States Commissioners
of Emigration to Europe, in which capacity
he several times visited foreign countries,
and when in Berlin had numerous audi
ences with Bismarck on emigration affairs.
In personal appearance Mr. Ochiltree is
one of the original freaks of human ma
ture. Heavy set, with canary colored un-
kempt hair and heavy light oolored mus
tache, eyes twinkling with good nature, a
ruddy complexion, protruding lips and
rather antiquated dress, he is a striking
oddity in the present Congress, but very
popular and always the centre OF group
of attentive listeners.
