AFTER THE CONCERT.

The following llnei were suggested by Il,
concert at the st. Paul's NJ, n. church the
day evening, June 2I..lSSi, and are
RESPECTFULLY DEDICATED To MISS y. n. NJ
iiYA FRIEND.
When night had dropped her curtain down
Ger worldly beauties all:
And with star had pinned II round
As lightly 1t lid fall
In folds and waves OF matches grace,
Kissed by fair Luna's lips;
Bright glowing as sweet natures face
When mornings dew she sips
Old "Sol' had bathcd his favered brow
In the far of western dew,
And pausing made one graceful bow
To wait a sweet adleu.
The night-bird's cry rose clear and high,
AS She iluttered in the gioam.
Her eye fixed on the star gemlned sky,
And the pale and blushlng moon.
The air was fresh with evenings breath,
And still as Deaths own voice;
And tanning soft our "native heath
Babe mans poor heart rejoice.
But bark a strain rs sweet AS love.
As son as the sighlDg wind.
Seems walled from the realms above
TO wean the toul from sin.
Like the murmur Of a ripping stream,
AS In lis b inks IL glides.
And waking fiom the lovely dream,
We were "drifdng with the tide"
Yes, drifting TO the spot where STOOD
The "slren" young and lair.
with sparkling eyes and perfect form
And lowing golden hair.
"The owlet screamed along the blast
AS a little child in pain:
The music waned, ana died away
And silence reigrei ags,n.
''srE LAUNcrLoT."

To the Editor of The MOrristswn Gaassts = O.
Texas has been en- a general boom
since the election, but has as last
quoted down, but they certainly
painted the city red, and 1 must
say they have some splendid artist
here. Business of all kinds is, and
has been very dull fall; have had
delightful weather. have had two
or three small frosts which has put
all hopes of the farmers aside of
getting a top crop of cotton this
year. The crop is very short, will
not make two thirds of a crop, and
three -fourths of that has been hans.
died. The coming year will I'M
doubtedly be a hard enc for Texas,
the worst she has seen for years.
Business men all complain and the
railroads have cut down in forces
and wages from twenty-five to forty
per cent.
/ see by my Tennessee papers al
most daily where some one was
leaving for the West. / could not
desire any one to come to Texas
this year on account of the dull
times. ! see often those here who
have failed to find the fortune they
expected to find awaiting them on
their arrival to the "Lone Star

WHERE CAN HE DO ZHE MOST
GOODP

From the Nashville American.
When a man reaches the point
Mr. Randall has as n statesman, he
belongs to his party in a limited
sense, but to his country IN a much
larger sense; and the question is,
not what is the best thing for him,
but where can he do the most good?
From a Democratic standpoint,
locking also to the good ofthe coun-
try, Mr.. Randall is simply invalua-
bic in Congress, and unless there is
some greater reason than we can
see for making him Secretary of the
Treasury, he ought not to be trans
ferred from the popular branch of
the national Legislature.
We do not mean to be misunder-
stood. In our judgment, Mr.. Rams
dali is peculiarly suited for Secretary
o: the Treasury. His unequaled
capacity for work, his familiarity
with our Government in all its de-
partments, his sound, conservative
financial views, and his national rep
utation for integrity and purity of
character, make him SO conspicuous
that the country will likely turn to
him as the most suitable of ali our
public men for that office.
But can the Democratic party
spare him out of Congress2 He is
the leader of the House his name
is a tower of strength; he possesses /
the rarest combination of qualities !
for the position be holds he has ex-
perience, ability, and courage; he
has the confidence Of the entire |
country, and is thoroughly Demo-
cratic in his purposes. The question
at once arises, Where is the weak
point? Where is our great danger? |
Where is the greatest prudence re>
quired? In what department. are
we most likely to do rash acts 2
Where will Democrats be most in /
need of a great leader? We say in
the House Of Representatives.

A number Of our Tennessee ex-
changes are urging the name Of
Col. A S. COIyar, of Nashville, for
Cabinent position under Cleve-
land. mo man in the South, {" says
the Chattanooga Times, "could be
of mere assistance to bis section as
a member Of the General Govern
meut. He knows tho industrial
needs of the South thoroughly be-
sides, he Is a broad, national char
acter. AS a Cabinet member Col.
ySrmight be quite as useful as he
could make himself in the Senate"
We agree with the Times Col.
Colyar in the Cabinet, from the
South, would be a good man in
the right place

l. A majority OF the people feel
that railroads in Tennessee should
be encouraged rather than hamper
ed. They are an important factor
in developing the State, aud must
be treated in a friendly spirit.
? Even admitting that n Railway
Commission is necessary, such an
extremely prejudiced man as John
Savage Is not considered the proper
person to be n leader in the work,
where the justice of conservatism is
a vital need.

The Democratic party is now res
ceiving stores of advice from various
zell-meanisg persons and journals
of various degrees of information
and misinformation The Inde~
pendent Republicans are especially
lavish with wise and kindly direc-
ton as,to what the next President
and the Democrats in Congress shall
| do. Several Cabinets have been Sc
lected for Mr.. Cleveland, and the
policy which he must follow has
been obligingIy indicated.
Mr.. Cleveland might well be dis
tracted by this multitude of counA
sellers, but among them is enc
whom he and all Democrats may
follow with safety and honor. Alta
meeting in Tammany Hall the oth-
er night Mr.. Randall laid down
sound Democratic policy, which is
not less likely 10 commend itself to
Democrats because his whole public
life has illustrated it. 1t is the ira
ditienal policy of the Democratic
party, with such additions only as
the times demand.
The work laid out by Mr.. Ran
dali for the Democrats to do includes
the abolition of every useless office,
simplicity and economy of admins
tration, the reduction of excessive
taxation, the curtailing of monopo-
lies, and the protection of "the
American citizen wherever he may
go, no matter where ne was born"
The programme proposed by Mr..
Randall will perhaps be as difficult
to execute as tits excellent in con-
eeption. But if Mr.. Cleveland on
his part is as brave and wise in en-
deaToring to carry it out as men
like Randall and Holman will be in
the House of Representatives, the
Democratic party need have no fear
of the elections of 1886. The Re-
publicans in the Senate may oppose
the policy marked out by Mr.. Ran
dali, but the country will not fail to
approve it.
