'"The Republicans national committee reioices
that the returns now received warrant it in an.
aouncing the Triumphant election of Blaine and
Logan. The Republicans have carried every
Northern State, except New Jersey and Connec
ticut Virginia seems also to have given a ma
jority to the Republican and ticket; there is
strong probability that West Virginia has also
while other Southern States are still in doubt
Northern States alone, however, give Blaine and
Logan 233 votes and insure their election. In
New York attempts to tamper with the returns
have already been detected. The actual vote
cast in New York city, Kings county, AM
1852 other election precincts give,
at the utmost, only 14S plurality
to Grover Cleveland, while 163 precincts not yet
heard from gave 2,l7l plurality to Garfield,
There is, therefore, no ground for doubt that the
Republican candidates, and though a defeated
candidate for President is at the head of the
election machinery in this State, the Democratic
party, which has notorously been the party Of
fraud in elections for years, will not be per
mtted to thwart the will of the people. The
national Republican committee calls on chair
men and individual members of all county com
mites to take the promptest and most stringent
means to protect the sanctty Of the ballot The
Republican candidates have been honestly
elected beyond question and any attempt to
cheat the people and to defeat their will as ex-
pressed at the polls must be sternly exposed and
resisted by every law respecting citizen

NOT MORE-NOT LESS.

Calm was the night, in that still autumn
And calmer still and colder were the twain
Who, parting then, might yet have kept to
Had pride not stronger been than even
pain.
There were no bitter tears. no signs of sor-
No sad reproaches uttered at the end;
And. should they meet, years hence or on the
Twill be with courteous ease, as friend
meets friend.
Oh! mocking words for those who once loved
Henceforth to be mere friends-not less
not more
Deep in each heart dcath-kncll sounded
sadly
For love- deemed deathless in glad days of
yore.
Not more than friends-the voices must not
Lest broken tones betray vain regret;
And on the lips the forced smile must not
To show how. meath that mask, grief's lines
are set
Let them take heed, lest any word be spoken,
To rouse some ghost from out the buried
past:
Though the dear ties, that bound them once,
A strange spell fingers yet and holds them
fast.
Not less than friends-but ah! the friendship
offered
Seems Of such little worth now love is done;
'Tis hard to take the hand thus coldly prof
ferred
And feel the tender, thrilling touch has
gone.
Gone with the day, when just one word was
needed
Those heavy clouds of pride and doubt to
But all in vain love dying voice had pleaded,
Now far apart, each lonely life must drift.
And she viii! never know, at their next meet

How hard he fought an outward calm to

Nor will he see, beneath the friendly greet

How her true heart Still yearns to him

..Where's it gone to? Where does it
live?" DAISY gasped. scrambling up the
fence. The boards were so far apart
that there was plenty of room for her
little feet between them.
.'O-o-h" she cried. peeping over.
There were '.One-two- three-eleventeen
dozen.of the funny little animals, and

thought must be the mother.

she asked. swell, it is welly dirty
one. and l fink you better sweep it
out"
And she shook her head at them so
hard. that over she went right into the
muddy, dirty place."
"Squee! Squee,,' cried the little pigs,
and off they scudded to the very
furthest corner, frightened half out OF
their wits, while Daisy lay perfectly
still, hurt and bewildered and so dirty.
oh, so dirty! :.
After awhile the mother pig plucked
up courage, and came granting over to
see what this could be. Was it a new
kind of pumpkin, somebody had thrown
| into the pen?
Then Daisy thought she was going to
be eaten up, and gave wild, wild
scream!
Somebody heard her, and that some
body was Archie!
| All this time he had been backing
his boots until you could see your face
in them, scrubbing his hands. and plas-
tering his hair all over with soap.
At first he did not know where the
scream came from; then he rushed to
the pig-pen, and peeping in saw the
dainty maiden who had turned up her
nose few minutes ago lying flat on
her back, right in the mud, with the
old pig, snorting and granting around
her.
'.Never mind, Daisy, Pm here"
cried her gallant little cousin, as he
flew to unlatch the gate. ''COme on!
Run out as fast as you can! Shoe! Get
out! Go away, you great big ugly
thing!'' This last was meant for old
sow, of course, not for Daisy.
And what do you think that ridicu-
lous child sobbed out, the moment she
was safe, aud the gate shut between her
and the pigs?
ooh, amt dweful fwight?'
! Her little white dress was black now,
water was dropping from her yellow
curls and her tears made dirty little
burrows down her cheeks.
mo you amt cried Archie, stoutly.
''You look just splendid" and he put
his arms around her neck and gave her
a hearty kiss.
''But perhaps you would feel more
comfortable if you was washed" he
added. "-Bertha Watson, 70 Youths

established a third station on one OF

BILE some scientific data to be obtained
upon the correspondence or divergen-
ces between arctic and antartic phenom
ena, and to cooperate with the observa-
tories of Cape Town and Melbourne.
Thus we had during the years '82 and
'83 no less than fifteen expeditions car

ternational Polar Commission, and on
the 1st and 18th of each month magnet-
ic and meteorological observations were
taken at various permanent Observable

have now been obtained from all parts
of the world. and, with the exceptions
of the Dutch expedition, which failed on
account of the ice to reach its destina-
ton and the United States expedition
which has now been rescued, we have
the full reports from all the stations.
