" On, hush, my baby, hushabyl"
CroOns Ethel, in the sunset glow.
Clo'e to her dimpled shoulder pressed,
She soothes her dolly into rest.
Soft rocking to and fro.
The restless little feet are still;
Grave now, and sweet, the laughing eyes;
All motherly in look and tone
She sits and rocks and sings alone,
While red the daylight dies.
" Oh, hushaby, my baby, hushl"
She draws sleepy little sgh
On Dolly's cheek of faded red
OLow drops the sunny, tired head
"Oh, hush, oh, hushabyl"
The song is ended in dream;
Across her face the sunbeams creep,
While Dollys eyes wide open stare.
The little mother, unaware,
Has sung herself 10 sleepl

Misapplied Quotations.

Don't" as our transatlantic mont
tors might say, use too many quotations
in private LIE and he specially cautious
about introduc nc them at publ meet
ings. A quotation well appl ed and APP
prec; ated is good thing, but,a quota
ton misunderstood may be fatal to the
quoter. Such are doubtless the refec-
ons of the chairman of a conservative
workingmen' club in the north, who
began speech in the following original
anu startling manner: Ladies and gen.
tfemen, rogues and fools. . This re-
minds US OF a story of a brilliant liter
airy man, now dead. who spoke as fol-
lows at a debating society in which, he
was invited to make few remarks:
"Gentlemen-I shall first prove the
fut lily of all the observations made by
the four Ia speakers, and then proceed
to show my contempt for the meeting
by pulling the chairman's nose" But
the Newcastle speaker had no thought
Of insulting the assembly tefore him.
After the sensation caused by his re-
markable exordium had subsidized. he
explained that it was only a fragment
of quotation from liberal news
paper,' and order once more reigned
in the Newcastle-on-Tyne Third Con-
servatise Workmen's Club.-St. James

A bit of sharp practice worthy OF d,
politician happened in Boston recently.
It appears that an organization was
about holding its annual m Getting fort
the election of officers. There was mo-
to the candidates mentioned
and it was pretty well understood who
the officers would be. A gentleman
who was mentioned for minor office
had the ballots printed on which his,
naAAe appeared, and on the evening On
the election was present with the bunch
of ballots in his hands. An enemy byI
some means had secured single bali
lot and had had others printed exactly,
like the regulars, with the exception
that the former gentleman's name was
left off and another substituted. Awick-
ed emissary appeared at the hall on the
evening OF the election with a suspicious
looking bundle, and approaching the
gentleman with the straight ballots
asked If he might see them.i The re-,
quest was granted. and unwittingly the
whole package of ballots was passed
over, and before it was passed back the
package Of crooked ballots had been,
substituted. The gentleman then stood
up and peddled the crooked ballots, and
very nicely succeeded in lifting himself
out Of office. His face was q study
when he discovered the sharp little trick
which had been played upon him. Bos-

Not far from Gold Hin. on the Vir-
o,inia and Truckee Railroad. which IL =
branch Of the Central Pacific, there Is 9
tnnnel nine hundred feet long, called
the American Flat Tunnel. which was
the scene of an exciting incident on the
18th Of October. 1872, that came neal
being 4 fearful tragedy. An excursion
train. loaded with passengers came
around the curve below the tunnel and
the fireman suddenly discovered that
the timbcrs Of the tunnel were on ire
II was 8 thrilling moment, for it seemed
as if death would be the inevitable re-
suit il the train went on; yet the eHgi-
ncer could not stop it. or even slacken
speed. while he decided what to do, for
another train was rushing along close
behind. and fatal collision WAS immi-
nent With scarcely asminute's hesita-
ton, the brave and quick-witted man
put on all possible steam, and the tram
dashed through the smoking burning
tunnel at fearful rate of speed. with
out iniuring one of the passengers. The
serious nature Of the fire may be con-
iectured from the fact that it took two
months to repair the damages. dnring
which time the passengers. freight and
mails on the railroad were transferred
in teams. Golden Days. ~ e.ss

Birds and beasts can know nothing
of thorough bass, and stones and dol
phins are, as rule, profoundly ignor-
ant OF the mysteries of couAterpoint
and fuoue. A tune, which may per-
haps be defined as melody possessing
an especially obvious rhythm. appeals
directly to an almost primitive sense.
common to nearly all civ lized men and
possibly to dolph ms. The appreciation
of muse in its higher forms demands
tie deliberate and careful cultivation OF
an Unborn taste. It is not by mere in
stinct that the full merit of the ma ster-
pieces of Beethoven and Mo art is rec
ogn 2ed. A man may be possessed OF
an undoubted scar" b 8 love OF music
may be perfectly genuine, and yet much
of what is ordinarily accepted as high
class music may be utterlyabeyond him.
He is SIMPLY bored by, orator.os, sym
phonies and conce. tos; the crash OF
choruses, the quaint and marvellous n
tricacy of fugue, and the giddy rush OF
an overture, are to such one poss bly,
imposing, certainly bewilder ne, and
frequently wear some. If he is man
of sup .rlative and unnatural honesty
he will admit this. If he is merely
possessed of the average amount
of courage he will say nothing
about it. He will humbly accept the
verdict of connoisseurs, and will so to
classical concerts much as he goes to
church, from dim sen e OF. duty and
because it is the thing to do. He will
scan the programme with apparent sat
isfacton; but when it contains an item
described as Op So, he will be con-
scious ofinward misgivings, and though
his external demeanor during it's per-
Torrance may be decently expressive
of en- oyment, he will be secretly yearn-
ing for the conclusion. On the other
hand, there are very few persons who
are wholly insensible to the magic of q
tune. many who have no power of re-
producing half a dozen notes with their
proper intervals can RI adiiy distinguish
their favorite tunes and find genuine
en- ,oyment in hearing them and beat
ing time more or less Incorrectly with
head or hand. Charles Lamb, who by
his own account organically incapable
.sof tune" and who had been s'fur-
lively practicing God Save the Queen
all his life and never arrived within
many quavers of it, = declared that it
would be foul self-libel to ay that his
heart had never melted at the concourse
of sweet sounds" Squire W estern,
too, Though he always excepted

The Presidency.

In 1876 Tilden and Hendricks were
elected by a conceded popular majority
of 16S. 737, and by an equitable Elector-
al majority of twenty-five Through an
infamous conspiracy of Republican
leaders, sustained by the Grant Admin
istration. the Electoral votes of Florida
and Louisiana and one of the votes OF
Oregon were fraudulently given to the
Republican candidate Hayes, who thus
secured nominal majority of one, and
was declared elected. The scandalous
illegality of that decision is not to-day
disputed by any honest Republican.
In 1880, during the greater part OF
the Presidential campaign. scarcely any
body doubted that the election OF Hat
cock was assured. By a desperate Of
fort. however, involving the pledge OF

and the Board of Health transcripts by
which so many hired devotees OF the
grand old party were enabled to vote
upon the names of dead or absent citi-
zens. -
If frauds of this sort are to be toler-
ated and encouraged, we had better
abandon the pretense of being self
governed people. Having been so long
in power, and having twice perpetuated
its. rule by means of criminal practices.
the Repub lean party will not this year
consent to retire without q desperate
struggle. Hence the Democracy must
be vigilantly prepared to encounter and
overcome the tactics resorted to in 1876
and 1884.
