Submission.

Musing on all my Fathers love,
How sweet it is;
Methought heard gentle voice:
Child, here's the cup
I've mixed it-drink it up
My heart did sink-I could no more rejoice
Father, dost thou love thy child;
Then why this cup:
One day, my child, | said to thee
Here is Il flower,
Plucked from beauteous bower;
Didst thou complain, or take it thankfully?
One day gave the pleasant fruit,
From a choice tree
How pleased, how grateful thou didst seem;
Thou saidst, ! love
Thee, faithful may prove.
That flower was mine-that fruit was mine
This cup is mine, ~
And all that's in it comes from me-
Father, I'm still,
Forgive my naughty will;
But what's the cup-may look in and see?
Thou see! My child, than must not see;
Christ only saw
His destined cup of bitter gall
Only believe,
Meeiy the cup receive,
And know that love and wisdom mixed it ALL
o, Father must il beg
1t must, my child.
Then give the needful medicine
be by my side,
Only thy face don't hide
I'll drink II all-it must be good it's thine.

THE EDUCATIONAL BILL.

Only eleven votes were recorded against
the passage of the Blair educational bill in
the senate. 1t is disgraceful that dem
ocrat could be. found who would vote for
such measure. The bill appropriates
81, 900 900 among the states, which is a
rank swindlc on the face of it; but in ad-
dition hardly any one pretends that con
gress has any constitutional right to ap-
propriate money for such purpose. If
congress can support the schools it can
also determine how they shall be conduct
ed and what shall be taught in them. At
the rate the country has been travelling
for some years past, congress VIII soon
become omnipotcnt and state lines aud
state legislatures might as well be aboI-
ished. 1t is discouraging to sincere dem
ocrats who really believe in democratic
principles to sec how quickly the repre-
sentatives of the party forsake these
principles when there is II little money to
be distributed
The evils of an enormous surplus are
also illustrated in the passage of this bill.
The measure would never have been
thought of were revenues kept somewhere
near the necessities of the government.
As long as there is money IN the treasury

A POLITICAL "REMINISCENCES.
Some Alleged Inside History OF the
New Work Custom House.


CINCINNATI, April 12.-The Enquirers
Washington correspondent telegraphs:
After the death of President Garfield. and a
few months after President Arthur had taken
hold, the president sent for Robertson. He
told him that his holding the Office Of cOllec,
tor had estranged from him some of his best
friends whose friendship he did not care to
fcrego Then and there the president
plump said that if he tRobertson) would re.
sign as collector he would appoint him to a
foreign mission; or, if that did not suit him,
would use his influence to secure for Robert
son the domination of governor of New
York. Upon the presentation of this propo-
sition Robertson WAS at first inclined to ac-
cept; however, lie gave no definite answer.
and returned to New York The day after
his arrival in New York, which was the
third day after his conference with Arthur,
he called together some of his most trusted
friends, among them Gen. Dan Sicklcs. TIC
these he related the presidents proposition,
and asked: What am l to doz"
What do you think you ought to doi'
asked one.
"Well candidly, gentlemen, l am inclined
to relieve the president from his embaITass
ment. | think I will resign"
"NOt bit OF it" said another "You stay
where you are Let the president turn you
out, but you Will neither resign nor accept
his offer"
After reflection Robertson accepted the ad.
vice of his friends, and refused to resign.
The president did not have the courage tc
turn him ont. The result is that Robertson
is now an active agent in securing for Blaine
delegates from New York. And because OF
the presidents failure to remove Robertson
neither Grant nor Conklins have been in tho
White House.

Democrat said that in his opinion the

consideration of the Morrison bill, but would
reserve their forces TO vote against its pass
age. Representative Payson, speaking of the
probabilities of ADJOURNMENT, said he did not
see how congress could adjourn before Aug.
l, and if there was to be a tariff
discussion he predicted much later
date. There appears to I've no disposition t.
hurry, and the general impression is that it is
not desired to adjourn until after the Chicago
