WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER B.

the pious phase of life, and is especially &C
tive in charities and welldoing Mr.. Kas-
son, with all the ardor of a widower, had
addressed Miss Frelinghuysen twice
without success, when his appointment
to the high diplomatic post which he
desired, and for which he was generally re.
garded as being eminently we'll fitted, came
to give him new hope. Miss Frelinghuysens
objection to his suit was understood to rest
somewhat upon disinclination on her part
TO going to Iowa to live. Now that a resi-
dence at prominent foreign court was to
be substituted even temporarily for the
Northwest, interested friends encouraged
the hope that the lady would yield. Acting
upon this suggestion, Mr.. Kasson. upon the
adjournment of Congress, renewed his suit,

has been again rejected, and will have to
forego his cherished hope of calling in the
assistance OF an accomplished bride in for

A Story of shame.

philadelphia Post
The episode with which the name of Null
igan is associated is the most dramatic, as
we'll as the most prominent, in the history OF
the Republican candidate for President.
When asked what ne has done, what claim
he has upon his party and the county, or
wherein he diiiers from other mea, the an
swer ought to be ready in the mouth OF every
American that Blame is absolutely unique
among all the public men in American his
tory IN that be hiss so completely smirched
himself over his own signature.
In 1860 Warren Fisher, e Boston contrac-
tor, undertook project in Arkansas known
as the Little Rock and Fort Smith Railway.
AS be was directly interested in securing
favorable action in Congress he naturally
sought aid from tbo:e having the most
power. In this way he was drawn to Blaine.
The business relations between them became
close. Blaine wrote fifteen letters to
Fisher. The latter had a bookkeeper
by the name, now made historic of Mul-
ligan. The Blaine correspon 1ence
naturally fell into Glulligan's hands
from the very nature of his position. When
summoned to testify before Congressional
Committee he took tn Sc letters with him as
par. Of his evidence. The story of how
Blaine asked permission to see them aud
how, when this was accorded, he positively
refused to return them, has passed into his
tory as one of the most shameful acts ever
C, mmitted by public man.
They tell a story, which, for deliberate
corruption, Is scarcely credible in this age.
1t recalls the corrupt days of old when the
ministers OF kings sold the royal favor to high
and low, or when judges dispensed the law
for money in hand paid, or still worse. when
royal female tavorites piled their hideous
trade and reared costly palaces out of
the money wruDg from their FELLOWSHIP
iects Those offenses had the corruption of
the times and the universally of their preva-
lence to excuse them. But the latter were
committed at a time when the standard
of public and private honor had been ele-
waited and when a great people were glorying
in their ability to govern themselves not
only well but honestly.
While the reconstruction of the shattered
fortunes of the Republic was still going on
the Speaker of the House of Representatives
was selling his public position in market
place where only thieves could become bid
ders. 1t was not his own vots-not his
mere private influence thus deliberately dis
posed of, but the power and the position
conferred upon him by agents of a free, an
enlightened and an honest people. When
democratic government was yet considered
an experiment one of its trusted agents was
betIaying it. not with any public purpose,
bur to fill his own pockets with the money
be had coveted, but could not earn with his
own brain and hands.
And these il must be borne in mind, are

MY SHIP.
BY MARY BAssErr HUssEY.

When my ship comes home from sea,
She will bring rare gifts TO me.
Cleaning jewels. treasures bright,
Beauty. luxury, delight;
Gifts 10 tempt an Eastern king,
LIES divinest Offering.
Freight OF hope, OF 10y, OF truth.
Sweetest dreams of happy youth.
She will bring these all to me.
My dear ship that sails the sea-
All the Joys my heart hath known,
All the happy moments flown.
Tender words, and loving cares.
Clinging kisses, whispered prayers,
All the visions sweet and strange.
Love that can not die or change.
Aspirations strong, sublime,
OF LIES happy morning time.
Ere the heart grown cold and stern
Marked TO lead its bright gold turn.
Swiftly DER the solemn sea
Sails that phantom ship TO me:
Half catch a glimpse tonight
OF her sails unfurled and white:
Hear glad voice calling, Come,
Thy good ship Is almost home,
Bid her welcome-soul, be gay.
For the bRTQue that comes to-day
Brings to thee a cargo blest,
Brings to thee love, Joy and rest"
So wait the sea beside;
Watch the eager, rushing tide
Watch with trust that can not fail,
For a glimpse of shining SAIL.
Saying to my heart, 'Be strong
Patience, il will not be long. ~
What strange gladness shall be mine
When she comes, a thing divine,
When the Master asks Tor me.
When my ship comes home from sea. 7"
