THE OLD AND THE NEW.

The Whispered voice Of sorrow, hoarse and
low.
Goes trembling down the arches Of the
night
And the veiled shadow Of a fOrmless woe
Is half revealed by soft, ascending light;
A soft, ascending light along the east;
A modest radiance. chastened as by grief,
Fair as white hands that bless M rriage
feast,
Mellow and wonderful beyond belief.
In this deep silence men may sit and weep,
And all their tears soft, trembling in the
light,
Shall fall upon the buds of love, that sleep,
And they shall burst in blossoms, red and
white,
To bend above the kindly years repose,
To gladden. in the New Years forward
way:
For every tear is fruitful when it flows
From eyes that yield to Loves divinest
sway.
Dbl not with storms nor earthquakes comes
our king,
NUT CRASH VI llAodAS IL eAAO 'hNASoS
But as pansy opes, or some slight thing
Pulsed into life by whispered melodies
Of tuneful voices souls alone may hear
That keep the time of loves incessant song;
So comes the new, rejoicing, hopeful year,
Silent as midnight and her voiceless throng.
Adieu, fond year; thy work was bravely
done,
And thou hast loved US, though thy open
hand
Has smote US often and our feet have run
In tangled paths and through the burning
sands
Where sorrow strobe beside US like guide
OF evil purpose; but tonight we feel
That every sorrows touch was sanctified
By Love, whose strength exceedeths bars
of steel
Hail, rising yearl As all the copses break
In song and blossom, when the spring
goes by,
So youthful souls shall sun themselves and
shake
Their white wings into gladness, as the sky
Grows warm with thee and smiling, near or
far,
Above fair gardens, rich with rural fanes,
Where partial Love unveils her mellow star,
And sweet, domestic bliss with plenty
reigns.

refer to the tallies We find that they cor
responded in number to the 796 as total
vote, and were afterward raised to 926,
making the total vote 996.
in addition to this all the candidates
for state and county offices on the Demr
ocratic ticket were in every instance
raised from to a 8 il favor of the
Democratic candidates. as we'll as upon
the constitutional amendments. When
first written they were all 726 and were
afterward changed to 926, except in the
case of judge of the supreme court to ill
a vacancy, treasurer of state, attorney
general aud member of the board of pub
lie works. The 726 in their cases still
remain 726, and ali the votes received by
the Republicans were exactly AS, and
amendments are exactly As against and
926 in favor. No scratching On either
side! Most remarkable supposition, es-
pecially in the case of the constitutional
amendments. Another noticeable fact
is that no vote whatever for the Prohi'
bIticn candidates is given in the proper
column, though the tally sheet shows
they received a number of votes.
an the face of these facts the major
ity of the court hold that the board may
count them. and the court can not inter-
fere because of the care they feel that
the honest voter should not be disfran-
chised.
In conclusion, my regret at this de
cision is deeper than can be expressed
in words. 1t is an apparent if not real
sanction to frauds of the most atrocious
character, crimes that if continued VIII
ultimately sap and destroy our repr. SEN
tative system of government. 1t is 10
comfort to say that contest by the Sem
ate of Ohio furnishes an adequate rem
edy. especially since by counting these
frauds the party benefited thereby gets
the control of the body which is to sit
in judgment on the contest. They OBJ
tain their certificates by means of fraud
and forgery; this entities them TO be-
c1me members of the coBtesting body.
This entities them to sit and vote in their
own cases or the cases of each other, ana
it would be a miracle if they or those
who affiliate with them politically should
surrender control of the Senate by oust>
ing themselves, however strong the case
may be for the contestants. Such a thing
is unheaEd of in contest by political
body, when successful contest would
surrender the control of that body to its
political opponents"

UNFORTUNATE IN BUSINESS.
Fernald Wheeler, Furniture Dealers, St.
Paul, Make an Assignment.

Paul, Make an Assignment.
The firm of Fernald & Wheeler, doing
business at No. 23O East Seventh street.
made an assignment to William Foulke,
attorney at law. The liabilities of the
firm are estimated at about $2O.OOO No
account has yet been taken of the assets.
Mr.. Wheeler states that An inventory was
taken on the 10Th of January, and at that
time the assets exceeded the liabilities by
$1,000. Since that time, in the natural
course Of business, the stock has dimin-
ished and part of the indebtedness has
been paid of. The stock of goods on
hand constitute the major portion of the
assets, and at forced sale would not bring
in more than $4,000. Mr.. Wheeler, how
ever, says that he is in hopes of effecting
an arrangement with the creditors where
by the firm will be able TO continue in
business. The members of the firm de-
cline to state who their creditors are, but
they owe only two or three parties in St.
Paul, and none of these are large amounts
The outside creditors are furniture firms
in Boston, indianapolis, Detroit, Grand
Rapids, Mich, Cincinnati and St. Louis
The members of the firm are both young
men. They came here from Austin in
September. 1882, and opened up business
at BAL Jackson street, where they remain
ed until last October. when they removed
to William Constans' block, on East
Seventh street, adding to their stock and
branching out in business generally. Up
to the time of their removal they seemed
to be doing good business. Mr.. Wheeler
states that they expected to 90 into the
Seventh street store on the 18th of Sep
TENDER, but were kept out OF it until the
gath of the following month, and were
thus deprived of the fall trade. Business
has been quiet since their removal and on
this account they were unable to meet
their obligations as they become due,
Some suits were brought against them.
and as there were four or five of the credi-
tors who seemed disposed to press mat
tiers, they turned over the business to an
assignee to protect themselves and the
balance of the creditors. Mr.. Fernald
has been in the furniture business at Aus
tin for the last eight or ten years, and
still runs a store there. carrying stock
of about $50 He also owns real estate
there, but it is encountered. A home
stead at Austin Is in Mr.. Weeeler's wite's
name. Bradstreet rated the credit of the
firm as fair. When the parties came here
they bought out Hezekiah Hall, and went
into business with his stock.-Pioneer
