The Ebb and Flow Of the Tide.
BY MARIANNE FARNINGHAM.

BY MARIANNE FARNlNGHAM.
1 stand on the edge of the beundless sea
Whose waters are vast and deep;
Sometimes the pillows fight furiouslv,
And sometimes calmly sleep;
Sometimes in their generous wealth they
rise
Up to my very feet:
And now they are stretching so far away,
That scarcely hear them beat;
But pleasures and troubles are coming thus
On the breast of the waters wide,
And wait to see what shall be to me
With the ebb and flow of the tide.
Like boat that is stranded 1 lie awhile
On the tide-forsaken shore;
The hot sun beats on the barren strand,
And. oh, that the day were DER!
Where are my waters of blessing now?
l ask my lonely heart,
And the joyous movements and glow of life,
In which / once had part
But lesson in patience is given to me
While the waters from me glide;
Though the time be long, l can wait with
song
For the flow of the freshcning tide.
Oh merry and free is the sunlit sea
When the bounding waters play,
And the rhythmic leaps of the gentle waves
Keep time to my gladstone lay;
Cheerily dancing the bright hours through
The waters rise anl fall,
And the beautiful skies in their cloudless
blue
Look down and bless us all;
And every change is an added bliss,
While gently the waters glide.
And hope laughs out with happy shout
On the ebb and flow of the tide.
A terrible storm beats down on me,
And the waves are mountain high
In tempest of anger they rise and shrink
To the black and frowning sky;
And am out in the whirl and rush,
Helpless, alone, afraid.
The waves and the pillows sweep oyer me
And how is my soul dismaysd!
Oh, for helper-a saving ark,
A haven in which to hide;
But after the storm a calm will come
With the ebb or flow of the tide.
My home is away across the sea,
Where tho skies and the waters meet;
| This is the land where the summers last,
And the telnpests never beat,
And what of the voyage that lies between
| This and the other shorsi
have boat that is safe and strong,
And Pilot to take me o'er;
The water is low but soon / know
shall see the face of my Guide,
And sail away to the happy day
On the joyous flow OF the tide.

Presidential Candidate for Two Parties
and Waiting for More.

Ex-Gov. B. F. Butler is unques-
tionably receiving the benefit of a
boom of considerable pretensions.
His nomination for President by
the Greenback-Labor Convention,
which follows speedily upon that
rendered him by the Anti-Monopo-
list Convention at Chicago, is, to
say the least of it, an actual nomi-
ton. TO be sure, it was not unan-
imous, about 100 delegates in an
assembly of about 45O having re-
fused to vote for him under any
circumstances whatever. Never
theless, it is nomination and the

We have always known that the Re-
publican party was the most illiberal
and prejuiiced organization in exist
enoe. AS noted elsewhere, they have
undertaken to "boycott" Harpers
Weekly. We have no great nor any
sympathy, for that matter, with that
publication, yet we must say that po.
litical party that through its recognized
clubs will stoop to make an organized
attack on the business OF newspaper,
which is private property. and reflects
the opinions OF nobody but its owners

the same thing Greeley did in -, and
the Republicans are trying to hound ii
out of existence, in the same spirit it
dogged him to death. then. 1t is an in
teresting fight as it stands, but we are
sorry to see such disgusting and un-
American political practices transplant
cd to our shores. Political campaigns,
to ensure the future and safety of the
country, should be conducted with as
little real and lasting injury to all con-
cerned as possible; so that when cleo

Adoption Among Birds.

remarkable bird story is related by
Thomas Prince, of Carson River, Nevada.
A pair of robins built nest on a fence
near his house, and in bush not far
away pair of catbirds had their home
The young in both nests were Matched
about the same time; but after several
days the catbirds We're seen no more,
having probably been shot by boys. The
young catbirds were evidently starving
When the robins came with beetle or

fore hopping down to their nest Every
time that robin thus alighted the little
catbrds opened their mouths, thrust up
their heads and made an outcry. They
were begging to the best of their ability
for food. The robins appeared to un-
dorstand the appeal, and began feeding
the hungry little catbirds. They did
not do what they had undertaken by
halves. Every evening the female robin
sat on her nest and warmed her young
while the male took the nest of the cat.

An Education that viii Answer
all Requirements.

There is much discussion at present
over conflicting theories of education,
both in the press and in the pulpit. Ed
ucation in its broadest sense may be de-
fined to be the fullest possible develop
ment, in due order and i'll proper proper
tion to each other, of all the faculties OF
the human mind For it may be as
sumed that the Creator did not implant
any unnecessary or superiluous attri.
butes in human nature. As they came
from Mis- hand they are all beneficial and
necessary. II is only their perversion
through wicked tendencies or improper
influences or education, that transforms
and distorts these faculties into wrong;
or it may be that through false system
of mental development certain faculties
of the mind are strengthened unduly in
proportion to other attributes, so that
the person becomes u monomanac on
some particular subject. In this view of
the question every incident OF a mans
life, from his infancy on, having its nee
essary effect on his mind and character,
becomes a part of his education. A
great writer has said that EVERY mo.
time on the anvil of conscience, in the
formation OF human character. And thus
it is seen how important it is that
the influences brought to bear on the
plastic mind of tho child, when suscep-
tible to lasting impressions, should be
such us to tend towards perfect de-
velopment OF mental powers. As to
the question which is being so exten.
sively agitated as to whether the
''dead languages" so called should be
generally taught, and as to whether the
mind OF youth can be thoroughly discip.
lined without resort to their aid
many and able arguments are adduced
on both sides. But there seems to b. no
answer TO the proposition, so far as the
study of Greek is concerned, that the
ancient Greeks, as for instance, Aristo.
tie, had the best disciplined minds
known to history, and they understood no
language but their own. ltmay reason
ably be concluded that the young man
who has mastered the English Ian
guage, and obtained a corresponding
knowledge OF mathematics and cognate
sciences, aud who is versed in history,
il he has been subjected to proper moral
influences, and thereby developed cor.
respondingly, morally, has received an
education OF which he need not he
ashamed, and which will answer all the
ordinary requirements of lie.

FoR several years the production Of
gold and silver in the world at large has
been steadily decreasing. This is true
to such an extent that the matter is be-
ginning to attract considerable attention
from publicists. But, after all, there are
immense areas of mountainous regions in
various parts of the globe that are unex-
plored in the search for the precious
metals. The Andes in South Americn,
the Himnlayas in southern Asia, and the
Mountains of the Moon, in Africa, may
yet yield forth streams of gold and sill

1T is pleasant to note the advance that
has been made in the fine arts in Los
Angeles during the past few years, The
number of artists and artists studios
that are now maintained here speaks
well for the culture aud refinement OF
our people in the line OF painting. And
the class of work that is being done by
Los Angeles painters in oil is really, in
many Instances, quite superior. Since
the beginning of history the appreciation
and encouragement OF music, painting
aud sculpture by people has been con.
sidered one of the sarest measures of
their progress in civilization. When art
ranked the highest in Greece, Rome and
Spain, those nations were ut their acme
OF power aud greatness in all other re.
spects. With the decline Of true art,
their power and influence in material re.
lations vanished also.

Danger of Whale OIL Soap.

Mr.. Gustav Eisen, the well.known
vineyardist of Fresno City, cautions
vine growers against the use of this in.
seeticide on vines in full foliage. He
says that although the application is
quite harmless on dormant trees and
vines, it is fatal to grapes. blossoms,

An Indiana Romance-A Husband
Returns After Thirty Five
Years Absence,

MuNcIE. Ind, June lS.-This city and
county is in a state of great excitement
over the return of Thompson Walling,
formerly resident of this city, but for
more than thirty years supposed to be
dead. Mrs. Walling, whom he left a
young wife with three children, has
been married twice and has lost both
husbands. The first husband and wife
met lat night for the first time since
ls49. Eight years prior to that time,
April |, lS4l, Thompson Walling marri-
ed Savannah Shafer. daughter of prom
inent farmer. In lS49, when the gold fever
was at its height, Walling went out
with number of now prominent citi.
zens, among whom was Chas. Mac
Laughln, the California millionaire, who
was recently shot in San Jose.
From 1852 no word was received from
him, and as years passed by he was
given up as dead, and his fathers large
estate administered as il such was the
case. Mrs. Walling was married to
Horatio V. Wilcox in 1862. In 1865
Wilcox was killed in a saw.mill, and
in 1866 jeremiah Neach married
the twice desolate widow, living
wlth her AT Springport, Henry county,
until his death in 1882. In the mean
time Nolney Wilson, prominent citi-
zen and staunch friend of Waling,
never gave him up, but flooded the West
with letters of inquiry. In February
last Walling when deputy postmaster at
Wetherby, Oregon, under a postmaster
who himself had been absent from his
family twenty years, picked up letter
post.marked Mnncie, Indiana, directed
to the postmaster and opening it, found
it was an inquiry for him. Correspond
ence with Wilson resulted, and yester-
day Walling returned and spent last
evening with his wife of thir.y-tive years
ago. 1t is mere than likely a re.mar-
riage will close the romantic reunion,
which was even more strange than that
OF Enoch Arden.
