MIR. BLAINE's CALL AT THE WHITE HoUsE.-A few minutes before o'clock on Friday afternoon, when the wAite house was nearly emptied of visitors and after the gas had been lighted and the shades drawn in the library, where tie president receives his callers, gentleman walked briskly up the western approach from Pennsyivauia avenue. He was nun of 8 little more than the average height, of sturdy build, of strong features, full gray beard and gray hair, complexion eolor.ess, and eyes of keenest brown. His heavy overcoat was buttons q closely, for the day was chilly one, with occasional flakes of snow. As he walked up the steps of the porch, he glanced around quickly and then lowing to the attendants at the door he passed through the vestibule toward the left and ascendvd to the aute-room leading to the apartment in which the cabinet meets. The presidents masscu- ger, MT. Loeftier, who knows everybody, kuew this distinguished visitor and bowed his overcoat.. The visitor passed into tue a door opened into the library The pres ident had been listening to q long talk by Senator 'Joe' Brown, of Georgia, who had been shown out by the main door. As he turnd to walk back to his desk the new visitor entered from the cab1net room with Private Secretary Lamont, aud 8 moment later President Cleveland and James G.
 Blaine were meeting for the first time, and were shaking hands as cordially as if they had never been opposing candidates in one of the most closely contested political bat ties ever fought in this country. MT. Blaine was not an unexpected visitor. He had asked for an appointment to suit the presidents convenience, and had been ask ed to come at an hour when the president would be least likely to be interrupted
 His visit was not hurried one. He staid long enough to congratulate MT. Cleve- land, to explain his absence from the in- auguration ceremonies caused by the death of his sister in Baltimore, and to entertain the president, as he does every one he meets, with brisk conversation about men and things It was. Mr. Blaine's first visit to the white house since the winter of 1883.

PLUCK AND PRAYER.

 There wasn't any use O frettin'.
 An told Obadiah so. For eff we cou dn't hold on to things.
 We'd jest got to let 'em go. There were lots of folks that'd suffer Along with the rest of us, An it didn't seem to be worth our while To make such dreffie fuss. To be sure the barn was most empty, An corn an pertaters scarce, An not much of anything plenty and cheap But water-an' apple asss. But then-as I told Obadiah
 It wasn't any use to groan, For flesh an blood couldn't stand it: an he Was nothin' but skin an bone. But laws eff you'd only heered him, At any hour of the night, A prayin' out in that closet there,
 'Twould have set you crazy quite. patched the knees of his trowsers
 With cloth that was no ways thin, But it seemed as eff the pieces torn out As fast as I set 'em in. To me he said mighty little
 Of the thorny way we trod But at least dozen times day,
 He talked it over with Sod. Down on his knees in that closet
 The most of his time was passed: For Obadiah knew how to pray
 Much better than how to fast But I am that way contrairy
 That eff things don't go just right feel like rollin' my sleeves up high
 An gettin' ready to fight And the g giants I slew that winter
 I ain't goin' to talk about; An 1 didn't even complain to God,
 Though I think that he found it out. With the point of a cambric needle
 l druv the wolf from the door, For l knew that we needn't starve to death, Or be lazy because we are poor. An Obadiah he wondered,
 An kept me patchin' his knees, An thought it strange how the meals held out An stranger we didn't freeze. But said 10 myself in whispers,
 ''God knows where his gift descends; An 'tisn't always that faith gets down
 As far as the finger ends." An wouldn't have no one reckon
 My Obadiah shirk, For some, you know, have the gift to pray And others the gift to work
