Autumn,
da May Davis.

Hail, lovelest daughter of the yearl with all
Thy wealth of color and thy fruits of gold
Thrice hail! Thy frosted locks thy brilliant robes,
Thy glowing eyes, thy nut brown cheeks, thy sighs
Now heard in whispers, now in passion wild,
Thy face, somber enwreathed in smiles
All these infame my soul with love of thee.
Thy generous gifts-the Indian summer days,
The evenings long, the charming nights, the rich
And luscious fruits, the garnered grain, the stores
OF good things-these, and countless blessings more
Respondent Princess, make thy first approach
As welcome the coming of a king,
Behold We sons of men, the gorgeous sight!
Now royal Autumn with her train of nymphs,
A goddess each, is sweeping grandly through
The land. Go forth Go forth! while yet We may,
We of toll and witness the display.
And thou, fair season, linger yet awhile
Within our realm that every care-worn soul
Thy touch may feel, and in thy glories see
Prophetic vision of the world to come.
My soul, be still the pageant onward moves
Nor heeds thy foolish prayers. Look while thou
canst
Feast now thine eyes! On Nature wait, ask
Her fairest Princess on thy steps to stay;
And when at last she's gone, thank heaven she

Colder it blows;
Soon come the SHOWS.
What will become of the trees. Mamma,
The bare, brown trees, when all is donel
Viii not the trees be cold, Mamma,
When all the leaves are blown awayi
When nights are long,
And winds are strong,

On many cold and wintry day.
What will become of the leaves, Mamma!
Away before the wind they fed;
After their play,
Hurried away.
What will become of the leaves, Mamma!

Mr.. Tfbbs's Christmas Gift.
Boston Globe.

Boston GODe
Are you going to make your husband a
Christmas present this year, inquired Mrs
Tibbs of her dear friend, Mrs. Sweet.
I'm afraid not" responded Mrs Sweet; II
was designing to, and had saved up quite a sum
of money for that purpose: but saw such love
of bonnet that l could not resist the temptation
to buy it. l am afraid Mr.. Sweet will have to
go without his present. Shall you give Mr.
Tibbs anything?'
''Oh, yes. shall give him just a splendid
present"
Indeed What is it to be2'
Il shall give him box of those very expen-
sive cigars of which ne is so fond, and which he
complains that he can so poorly afford to buy"
How have you managed to save so much
money!
ooh, haven't done it that way. When he
leaves his box carelessly on the library table,
take out one or two cigars and lay them away
carefully, so that by Christmas l shall have
enough to fill box"
What perfectly lovely idea! Won't he be
surprised?r

AGED THIRrY-FIvE.

DIED-12 NJ, AGED TWENTY-FIVE.
Died at noon.
Not in the morning of thy stay
Nor when the rounded complete day
Had worn the light and flush away,
And left but unto death the gray
Late afternoon.
Died at noon.
When the warm sun shone high and bright,
Nor seemed aught could exclipse its light.
With strength at life's meridian height,
There came the summons-sleep tonight
Meath waning moon.
Died at noon.
With hopes full planned as gloriously,
AS floods the hills at dawn the sky
That shimmering in celestial dye,
Lulls doubt in soft tranquility,
Like rhythmic tune.
Died at noon
Bid hope and fear farewell together.
What to thee is wind or weather!
Lying meath the purple heather,
Cares will weigh but feather
On-breeze of June.
Died at noon
Opeace eternal-infnite sleep!
The dim years flee as shadows creep,
And struggle DER yon castled steep.
When dips the sun within the deep
Dark waters swoon.
Died at
Freed from the years returning thral
Sealed to eternity, through all
The round of suns and seasons fall
Thro glimpses DER the rock-bound wall
OF ages hewn.
Died at noon.
Rest peacefully-close tight the doorl
Life has been here and now is DER.
An angel came once as the sower
His brother comes as the mower
Nay, not too soon.
Died at noon.
A richer music DER thee swells,
Than chimes of earth's cathedral bells;
A sweeter fragrance round thee dwells,
Than scent of earths white immortelles
And roses strewn.
Died at noon.
A newborn glory-that of spheres,
Whose time is measured not by years,
Fills now the shade of night and tears;
And earth is cold when heaven appears,
o, sweet, sweet boonl

DE YOUNG JOURNALISM.

Journalism, as the De Young brothers of
the San Francisco Chronicle understands II,
is perilously exciting. To shoot and be shot
at has been almost daily expectation with
Charles and Michael De Young for years.
From time To time public sentiment has been
tremendously bitter against them, and II
seemed as if their paper could not hold out
against popular indignation.
When Charles De Young tried TO kin the
unsavory KallOeh and was himself afterward
murdered by the Kalloch Ills, the support Of
the Chronicle dwindled until its very exis-
tence under such pressure became uues.
tionable, hut it had firm friends, and sur
wives TO cause more shooting at NJ. II. De
week ago on the affairs Of the Hawaiian su
gar king, Claus Spreckels, inaamed young
Spreckels to take the outspoken EDITORS life
In all the tumultuous vicissitudes of the
De Young's career in San Francisco they
have always coerced a certain respect for
their bold courage, and the reputation of be-
ing good fighters has served them well in the
lrouOlous contentious they have melted or
espoused. No men ever followed an
opponent with such unsparing criticism as
they did the political preacher Kalloch, aud
when in spite of ali he was elected mayor of
San Francisco, it was the very precipitation
of bitterness to them.
As the years go by some autagonism oc-
casionally wakes offensive enough for some
deadly assault on one side or the other, and
now Michael De Young has been loaded for
his sugar articles by Prince Saccharine of the
Hawaiian Monopoly, known as Adolph
Spreckels. Standing on only narrow
margin of social tolerance at best perhaps If
Michael De Young's life were to be forfeited
now, the world would praise him, and his
brother, too, for the most devoted and touch
ing filial affection for their mother. People
are not apt to consider il so highly for such
men as for men like James A. Garfield. but
in reality it should count for more when the
difference in character and surroundings is
estimated. The setting of virtue it would

POSTMASTER GENERAL HATToN is accused
by members of the Republican committee
with contributing TO the Republican defeat
by not ordering that the PostIfice In New
York city be closed on election day, an order
he was appealed to issue by Steve Elkins.
In spicy letter Mr.. Hatton gives the cores
pondence that passed in regard to closing
the New York Office, mis- reply 10 the appeal be-
ing that there was no law making election day
a holiday, but the New York postmaster could
make such arrangements as he chose, to allow
the employees to vote, so that the public ser
vice was not interfered with. In closing,
Mr.. Hatton fred the following sbot-the

against him in the Chicago Tyt5l1ls:

master general at the time they might have
issued an order closing all the postodices In the
United States during lection dsy hut hardly
think they would have done so after reaaing the
law"
Hatton's sins are, according to his accus-
ers, that he was before the Chicago conven-
ton an Arthur man, and was not touched
with ''magnetism'' after that event, and
when asked by the Republican committee to
violate law he refused to do it. The Post
master General has the stuff in him for a
mugwump.

TILE My

Under Republican sway the Navy has been
censurably permitted TO go to decay. For
defense or-aggression it is worthless. It is
discredit to the country, and the old, rotten
hulks remaining, are not worth their equip
ments. A new line of war ships, supplied
with the best guns of modern invention,
ought to be at once provided. Sufficient APP
preparations for this purpose ought TO be
placed at once in the hands Of competent,
honest men. The reason why the Democratic
House at the late session of Congress refused
Naval appropriations, was because it had
not con fdenee in the head of the Naval de-
partment, and it would not place
money in his hands to be
squandered on favortes, or to be used for
the purposes of a political campaign, or to be
otherwise Incorporated, without material
benefit 10 the navy.
When the new administration comes into
power, and reliable, trustworthy and able
man is placed at the head of the naval de-
partment, no time should be lost
In making suitable appropriations and en-
towering him to strengthen this arm of the
national defense. Every neglected depart
ment of the govern ment should now receive
due attention.
