Made earth and sea and fragile flower
Whose providence provides place
For bird and beast and human race;
Whose voice can still the raging sea,
Whose hand doth feed the tiny bee;

And sees the smallest sparrow fall
Would have his creatures mercy show
To fellow man, and all below;
And ne'er in sport or anger take

THE DISTRICT ATTORNEYSHIP.
No Appointment To-day.

The President, until yesterday. was under the
impression that Col COrkhill could perform the
duties OF district attorney until the appointment CT
MS successor. and intended giving the matter
ful consideration before making a nomination.
Finding, however, that business I'm the courts is
practically at standstill. he will dispose OF the
matter as soon as possible. Judge Macarthur
called upon the President to-day, II Is understood,
In the interest OF Col. Corkhiil.
At the Cabinet meeting to-day all the Cabinet
officers were present except the Postmaster Gen.
eral. district attorney was not decided upon
and the nomination will therefore be de-
layed until tomorrow. MeSsrS- Nathaniel
" lSon Mattingly and johnson, called at the White
House this afternoon, and made ar engagement to
present the claims OF Mr. A. 5. WoIJhington to the
President tomorrow morning. The delay I'm max
ing the nomination is unfavOrabe to Col. Corkhin.
Inc expiration OF the term OF Office OF district
attorney would not necessarily have caused S,ls-
pension OF business in any other district than this
as circuit justice could temporarily appoint an
acting attorney, or The Attorney General designate
an assistant attorney. In the District OF Columbia
neither could be done, on account OF the existence
OF the supreme Court OF the District, and the nom
jurisdiction OF the Attorney General. Ii was gen.
erally supposed that even II Col Corkhill could not
hold over that business could be continued by one
