Some Day.
DEDICATED TO "DoLOREs," BY }. R. I.

DEDICATED To DOLORES" BY JRL.
Some day the roses in my cheeks shall fade,
And silver strands among my golden hair
Shall change the radiant, beauteous maid
Into woman olden, gray, unfair.
The tender lustre of these lovelit eyes
Shall DINNER grow with future years,
Pale as the starlight in the skies,
Half-hid by the rain veil of tears.
Tho virgin brow shall fu1rowed be,
And lovelit eyes grown weak and blind:
My heart shall ever turn TO thee
Like ancient pilgrim to his shrine.
Tho beauty lose its vernal bloom,
Ere the vesper star Of life is set.
Love rules the heart cen to the tomb,
Through life our love can ne'er forget.

necessity, SO is the division of produce

necessity, SO is the DIVISION OF produce
national necessity.
Besides, independence does not de-
pend so much upon variety of home
industry as upon the benefits nation
can command from other countries.
Crete and Rhodes were small islands,
incapable of sustaining variety of
home industry; Tyre and Venice had
no extended dominion on land; yet SO
independent were these countries that
they declared mercantile laws to every
nation. Carthage, for hundreds of
years the mistress of the world, is
said to have been founded upon a
territory measured off by bulls hide.
If Carthage could be independent
upon that little territory, need Amer
lea, with all her resources, be iudnlg-
ing in imaginary dreams of depend
ence from lack of home industry p
If SO, let her statesmen learn that she
can never draw independence from
these industries which in themselves
are sef-supporting.
But they say it is only in the infan-
cy of our industries that they need
protection. That was the cry one
hundred years ago. During that
hundred years we have acquired vast
territory and new fields for traffic
Our population has increased from
three to sixty millions; our inventions
have rendered commerce convenient
and rapid, and we have laid claim to
the proud distinction of being one of
the foremost nations upon the face of
earth. Are our manufacturing indus
tries yet infants? If so, forever be
praised the follower that would re-
move such an infant from the maternal
breast. Of all countries America
should most strongly advocate an un-
hampered commerce. Such is the
variety and extent of her products
that nature has made her the great
storehouse of the world. She has a
surplus OF cotton, grain, beef, pork,
tobacco, wool, fruits, lumber, metals
and minerals. Unnecessary she should
offer such bounty upon the few need
ed commodities with which other
countries can supply her as would
induce foreign vessels to visit her
shores and purchase return cargoes
from the products of her soil. But if
commerce be free such a necessity
can never arise, for natural demand
and supply will accomplish that end.
But if she shall persist in taking
trade beyond her necessities, will not
at length the law of retaliation and
the decline of her power demonstrate
the folly of her course.
