"REsI6SATiOS,
The spirit OF resignation
Now pervades this mighty Nation.
The Radicals are moving out in line.
They would Ike 20 hold their station
But there is no real salvation
but 10 march up 10 the Captain and resign
And this gay administration
Is entirely on proba ton,
Its principles and party TO define;
And the way II strikes the Nation,
When il wants q fellows station,
Is to ask him "on the quiet to resign.
And this civil service notion
Is mild and harmless lotion.
AS thin as any pale domestic wine;
1t can wash away position,
Or bestow q foreign mission;
IN any case will ask you to resign.

The Laws Delay.

Cyrus H. Mccormick, the reaper
man, is dead, but the New York Court
of Appeals yesterday decided i'm his ia.
| vor suit begun by him against the
| Pennsylvania Railroad twenty-three
years ago for the value of trunks con-
tanning clothing aud jewelry belonging
to his wife, which were destroyed by
| fire in the depot the morning the trunks
| arr we'd in Chicago. On the first trial,
over twenty years ago, the jury found
verdict III his favor for SO, 400, and
now the New York Court of A appeals
gives judgment for that amount with
interest But in the meantime the
case had already bean passed upon four
| times by the Supreme Court and three
times by the Court OF Appeals, and has
probably cost each of tie parties to it
much more than the whole amount of
the Judgment. AS both the McCor-
mick estate and the railroad company
are able 10 indulge 01 ii5jtasH in sach
expensive contests, there is no telling
bow much longer this litigation will
continne.
A Palestine, Texas, yesterday, Mrs.
Mary Ornlan for the time obtained a
verdict against thu Missouri Pacific for
So ,0J0 for the killing of her husband.
But fer the third time the defendant
has appealed, and it is as notorious as
scandaious that SUCH an atle-bodied
litigant can wear out with the laws
delay the life and means of an ordinary
plaintiff. 1t is coming to pass that no.
body thinks of standing Oh his lega!
rights against railroad company, or
refusing to settle with it, on its own
terms, all claims for damage to person
or property.
Theoretically all men are equal be-
fore the laws in our court, but not only
i'm civil but in criminal cases the ine-
quality bet ~ cen the ric!i and the poor,
or between the strong and the weak, is
notorious and startling. The friendless
prisoner is railroaded to the Penitentia-
ry or the gallOws, while the criminal
who can enlist an array of great
lawyers in his defence gets continu-
ancts and new trials until public JUS
tice is worn out and the case against
him fades away The law is the same
for both but practically it has loop
holes for the one that are closed to tie
other.
A prominent jurist writing bout this
miscarriage of justice in all Eastern
periodical attributes it to the loose and
ineXpert drafting of our laws. Yet it
is fact that now here on earth is lpgis-
lation so completely in the hands of
lawyers as in this country.
If they have less than majority of
any Legislature that meets, they still
run all the committees, frame all the
bills, and no statute is enacted without
receiving the finishing touches from a
judiciary committee composed aitogeth-
er of prominent lawyers and ex-judges.
The laws delays and uncertainties, its
looseness, its loop-holes, all inure to
the profit of the legal profession, and
are therefore stain upon the leading
part which that protest. N takes in our
legislation. The thing is becoming
public scandal, reform is demanded,
and there is a growing impression that
no substantial reform in the interest
of public justice can be expecte from
the counsel or cooperation of the bar.

A Song of Base Ball.

You may talk of the places statesmen take
In the temple of fame sublime:
OF men and women who strive to make
A name in prose or rhyme;
But give to me no classic degree,
Be its honors ever so high,
The bat I'll swing, and I'll try to bring
The ball that goes whistling hy.
Some men may follow the greed of gold
Till their hair grows thin ana gray,
But worry and fret makes yonng blood old,
And they fritter their lives away.
Though my face is bruised and Pm badly used
BY hot ball, what of that?
I'll boldly stand, with blstered hand,
A catcher behind the bat.
The cyclst NAV ride his git'ring wheel,
The skater his rollers don,
And pugilistic cranks may feel
Great pride in the doughty John;
But give to me the diamond free,
With its bases, its rush and shout,
Though tooth I've lost, do I count the cost
When I've caught their best man out?

Senator Vest and the President.

The way in which two bright men
like President Cleveland and Senator
Vest counter on one another is worth
record.
"Mr. President, I've called frankly
to say to you that if you nominate Mr..
Pearson | will vote to reject him, and
try to get others to do So"
''That is yoar right, senator" rejoin-
ed Mr.. Cleveland, "but will you tell
me why you propose t" do SO in case l
should nominate Mr.. Pearson?"
Certainly" rejoined the impetuous
and incsive Miss0urian.
"You can hardly nominate Mr.. Pear
son without sending letter to the SEN
ate that New York state has run out
of ca pable Democrats. You can't write
snch a letter, for it wouldn't be true.
If you do write such a letter I'll try to
believe it and vote for Pearson, hut if
you don't I'll have to vote against
him.
Now, senator" put in Mr.. Cleve-
land i'm his quiet way, but with twin
kle in his eye, LETS look at this min
ute If had a Missouri appointment
to make I'll cons'lt you, Mr.. Cockrell,
aud other Democrats of your state. If
had to make an appointment for al
most any other state I'd consult DEM
ocrats of equal prominen ce in that state.
But when it comes to New York, I'm
at homa. / know something about
that state or must be presumed to know
something about il. / observed and
studied its politics lnng before it ob-
served and studied me-" continued the
orr sident with "a smile, land since /
"ane into public lite | may b. presum-
ed to have watched its affairs a little.
Ii should conclude in a single instant
to do differently rom what you think
| ght to d0--with your larger kpowl-
edge OF the state-you ought to bear
with me a little. Don't you think sV
yourself"
Bv this time Mr.. Vest could hold in
no longer
"Mr. President - he shouted, "Iauit.
Send in any New Yorker you please
and I'll vote for him right Oft. "OhIy,n
he continued, with sly glance, abe
sure to have as much col fidence IN nv
judgment about Missouri as | have i'm
yours about New York;
The gentlemen parted in high good
humor. 1t is just this way of frankly
meeting aud matching objectors which
makes Mr.. Cleveland so respected and
Liked by those with whom he comes in
contact.-Brookiyn Eagie.
