Our highly esteemed contemporary,
the ST. Louis Post Dispatch, thus hap
PLY voices the millions Of minds since
the Presidential election;
Grover Cleveland is the FIRST man
that ever made the mayoralty Of 4
minor municipality stepping stone
to the office Of Governor, and then
stepped from the latter into the Pres
idency. His growth as national
characterin the petty Office Of Mayor
was SO phenomenal that his installzr
ton as Governor Of New York was
witnessed with many misgivings that
the mushroom wonder wonld collapse
under the weight Of that great respon4
sibility, Yet he still grew under ii
an 50 admirably that last November
witnessed his election to the Prssi
dency. And, strange to Rav, 10 has
since grown more in the public conf
dence aud respect than amy other
President ever did between bis cleo
tion and inauguration With oppor-
tunilies abundant be has made DO
mistake. He has written lnany let.
tiers, but not one Of which the country
would say 'hnrn this,' Every word
from his tongue Of pen 80 far keepa
the line which the common sense of
the country has marked out for him
During the campaign i piggish cly
was raised that Governor Cleveland
was man Of "slnggish intellect, of
enc ideas, Z and destitute of all knowl-
edge of national affairs,
Since the election, as the world
learns more and more Of the Presi.
dent-elact, it is seen that with his
quiet grasp Of public affairs, bis ins
knowledge Of right, his great
sense Of duty, his calm judicial mind,
his mature Judgment and bis entire
he Is 4 greater statesman
than could be made ont Of i whole
school Of bis pragmatical critics,
Grover Cleveland ndmanifeated neither
excitement nor anxiety when II be-
came evident that an attempt to 10.
peat the fraud Of 1885 was contem-
plated. He felt strong in the firm
ness and honesty Of the people. Vic
tory did NOT nnduly elate him, and
did not cause the slightest change IL
his simple habits or the quiet dis
charge of his duties Since the cleo
lion he has made no iniudicions ut
-erance although he has talked freely
and frankly with all. His words have
been words Of wisdom because they
nave come with sincerity from an
honest heart.
As our WesterRoontemporary says,
Grover Cleveland "has grown more in
he public confidence and respect than
my other President-elect ever grew
,etwoen his election and inaugnra-
ion.o The country begins to repose
IN Grover Cleveland with q sense Of
comfort and security.

CHARLES PARISH SATURDAY FEBRUARY
TIE pRUNKARD,s WIFE.
By FRANCIS s. SMITH.


am dying, Willis. dying,
Deaths dew Is on my brow,
Come closer-let me gaze on you,
For you are sober now.
Your eyes beam kindly ON me
Your voice Is soft and low
And your presence brings to light agai
The blessed long ago.
Pm thinking of the happy time,
Ere you and | were wed,
When daily blessings seemed to fall
Like incense on my head
When great Joy filled my bosom,
And my step was light and free,
And you a bHght-eyed, fearless boy,
Were all the world to me.
Oh, how loved you, Willie
And love you, darling, yet
Your kindness in that golden time
never can forget. ....
And do not mean to chide you,
When backward view | cast;
And shudder at the gulf between
The present and the past.
Forgive me, Willie, darling,
If my words have caused you pain
will not call up memories
OF the long ago again.
But must speak of the present,
For have that to say
Which would have you think Of,
When am snatehed away,
Our little boy, oh, Willie,
He is pure and sinless now
There is no shade of crime or vice
Upon his baby brow
His heart Ia free from bitterness
His soul is pure as snow
Oh, Willie, in years to come
See that you Keep him so.
You have sworn upon the Bible
That you ne'er again will taste
The poison that has ruined us
And made our lives a waste.
If you keep that solemn covenant
As long as life shall last,
Our boy Is safe, and God will grant
forgiveness for the past.
Come closer to me, darling,
Let me fold you to my breast,
Ere the shadows close around me
And sink to dreamless rest.
Oh, the weary, weary hours,
And the bitter, bitter pain,
Are lifted from my bosom
And all is peace again.
/ am dying, Willie, dying,
But for me all pain is DER;
And I'll look for you, my darling,
When | reach the golden shore.
God WILD that | should perish
To save you and our boy,
And go to seek His presence
With an eager, eager Joy

Art hath no charity for him
Whom love hath satisfied.

He married a youngslady, and after
three months of living together, they
separated. The reasons, neither gave.
All ru shed forward with a reason, aud
that the basest but none guessed the
shortest one-that the woman did not
love him.
Like Hester Prynne, implored by
the preacher, in public, 10 tell the
name Of her betrayer, when the
preacher himself was that, il might be
said Of Sam Houston: "Iie would
not speak Wondrous strength and
generosity of mans heart, He would
not speak y He resigned his office,
bowed his head, and, in the splendor
of a young career, departed for the
desert. He landed at the mouth Of

The Reason Cor Hard rsmes.

To the Editor Of the Sun,
Our annual expense for Intoxicating
liquors is 100000, 900, The exces-
siye taxation which they cause is $500,
900, 900. Three-fourths Of all the
misery and poverty in this country
must be charged to alcohol Its VIC
Tins annually thrown into drunkard's
graves number one hundred thousand.
Every year it drives out into the
streets over three millions Of little
children, hungry and in rags In
short, it leaves one-third Of all the
people 50 badly impoverished that
they are not able to buy the actual
necessities OF life,
There is certainly an oYer-produc-
tion of beer and whisky, and too small
a consumption Of bread and meat, to
say nothing Of the scant supply regu-
lated by the small demand for dry
goods and clothing. Bread costs $780,
100000; meat, $3os, 100000 cotton
and wooden goods, $452, 100000. To-
tal, sl ,26O, 600, 900. Now take this
total from The 81, 100000, 900, which
is the total Of the expenses for whisky
and beer, including Tie taxes, aud il
viii be found that just $l40,0oo,00l Is
the amount annually paid for strong
drink over and above the cost of bread,
meat and clothing. Is II any wonder
that we have hard times and that tile
liquor traffic stands almost alone un-
paralyzed In view Of these facts and
figures, which cannot be contradicted,
the prohibition agitation il not likely
20 die out, On the contrary, it will
come to The front more boldly than
ever In the presidential campaign Of
1883. MISSOURI.

The Mcintosh Red Apple.

In some places we think this apple
may be more profitable to plant than
the Wealthy. 1t requires stronger,
deeper soil, and the tree is not so hardy;
but the fruit is as large, as handsome
and as good, though not so generally
fair, especially on light soils, as where
the climate is too hard for it. We think
it would be grand substitute for the
Fameuse in the Champlain Valley
being quite equal in quality, and two or
three times as large. 1t does not suit
our colder locality and light soil so well
as Wealthy. The editor of the Maine
Farmer is an experienced orchardist,
and this is his opinion of the fruit,
which is conceded with by many other
Maine orchardists who have grown it
themselves. Some are very enthusiastic
over it. Editor Gilbert says March s,
1880:
For a long time we have desired to
see and test specimen, known to be
true to name, OF the apple known as
the Mcintosh Red. That we might be
sure of no mistake in the variety, and
also that we might test it when in its
prime, we sent to DR.. Hoskins of Yer
mont, few days since, for sample,
and have received from him-for which
favor he will accept our thanks-two
samples in good order, which the doc
tor states are very inferior specimens
and understood The apple is of the
Fameuse type in all respects. The
samples received are rather under me-
dunn in size, but large enough not to
be classed small. They resemble the
Wealthy and also the Wagner in APP
pearance and in general shape, though
in the latter respect differing from both
by tapering slightly in drawing toward
the eye. In color it is blushed all over
with red, deep in the sun and slight
when shaded, and thickly covered all
over with small obscure dots. Like all
of the Fameuse tribe, the stem is slen-
der; the skin smooth, thin, tough and
peeling easily from the fruit; flesh
white, soft and juicy; core rather large
