Lows SONG.
Twas but a simple little Leaf.
Blown by the winds from thy fair breast;
caught 10 mp that moment briei,
And wear II now upon my vest.
have thy leaf-thou hast my heart
Poor heart! Till saw thee twas mine
lpray thee with one treasure part
Return me mine or send me thine.
II Collector Robertson had used the
Now York custom house machine in the
interests of Arthur, how the snivelling
camp followers OF Blaine would have de.
claimed against the outrage But, as it
was solid for the msn from Maine, it
excites no qualms in the breasts of tho
Pharisaical Blaine henchmeu.
Mrs. GARFIELD and family promptly
sent their congratulations to Blaine. The
family of John Brown have not yet sent
in their fluctuations to Logan. 1t was
IN 1859, in Congress, that Logan de-
nounced ''the ministers of God or pre-.
tended ministers of God who attended a
meeting which passed resolutions Of
sympathy with that traitor, thief and
scoundrel," John Brown.
JUDGE ADVOCATE GENERAL SWAIN is to
taste of the delights Of a court martial.
The court of inquiry that investigated the
charges made against him, report that
| 'the evidence does show q series of trans
actions discreditabl, to any officer Of the
army, and which especially demands the
seYerest condemnation when engaged in
by an officer holding the high position nd
peculiar relations TO the administration Of
justice in the army held by Brigadier
General SWAIN" Swain was chief of the
"chum's cabinet" of the late President
Garfield.
THE Young Mems Democratic associa
tion, of Philadelphia, which has done very
excellent work in behalf of sound principle
and for the practical promotion of Demo
cratic success, proposes to extend its use
fulness by appealing to the young men of
| the party generally throughout the state
to form a chain OF kindred associations,
which would assuredly DO of great aid and
benefit to the party, especially from the
fact that one association would be able to
receive at all times reliable information
from the others with regard to the general
political condition of the respective local.
ties, and to obtain the sympathetic action
and cooperation Of large body of or.
ganized Democrats.
THERE is q society in existence IN the
United States, located at no particular
point, that for uniqueness can hardly be
surpassed. 1t is termed " The Shut in
Society,"" and to be eligible to membfr
ship in this strange association, one must
be an invalid, shut in from the outside
world. Though started only seven years
ago by two sufferers, who felt that their
miseries might be allcyiated by the mutual
interchange Of sentiments in au associa.
tion, it now numbers nearly 2,COO mem.
bers. The society has no constitution, or
bylaws, or officers, but has simply paper
| cilled the Visitor, which is the vehicle of
| communication among the mombcrs.
| Already the association has douo much in
soothing the iniseTies Of sick bed sufferers.
| The feeling OF isolation that is so hard for
| au invalid to bear is removed, and his
psins are assuaged as he reads in the
society monthly that Others ar afll lcted AZ
| bad or worse than himself. Tho won
drous kindness that follows fello = feeling
| IS utilized with success TO bring new rays
| OF sunshine into the sick room.
