POLITICAL PIcKINGS-
Burial Of Sir Grover Cleveland.


And the sons of toll shall be heard that night
Victorious, with torchlghts burning.
No useless coffin shall inclose his breast,
Nor in sheet nor in shroud wei wind him,
But Goldman, Higginson, Bee her and the rest
Can march in procession behind him.
Few and short are the prayers to be said,
And we'll speak not word of sorrow.
Well cable to London Grover Is dead
And we'll joyfully sing on the morrow.
The monster wei sink in his narrow bed,
With vetoes well smooth down his pillow,
With tie car-dfivers' curses upon his head
While the pilots rejoice on the billow.
Ere half of our heavy work shall be done
The Harpers and Pucks shall be grooming;
And the free tr de crowd will be on the run
And the sly London Times shall be moaning.
Quickly and gladly wen lay him do vn,
FROM his exploits most shameful of story;
Wen carve not a line an we Il raike OF a stone
To the hangman that day without glory.
THOMAS L. LGAHY,
Secretary of the late Michael Davitt Branch
Of the Irish Land League.

Influence here Events move rapidly
in America. and the coming triumph

the triumph of the free trade move
ment in the States. II is not to be
supposed tina, there Will be free trade
imports into the States but tariff
for revenue only" which is the lead
ing cry of the Democrats, will open
an immense additional field for the
sale of English manufactured goods
in the States.
