But the God that hath bereftt Ut
BIC can all cur sorrOws heal.
sweetly sleep, my mother dear,
In holyitriunlph ever reign;
o! thou art free from sorrow and care,
So death to you was naught but gain.
She was too dear to stay below,
Goo called her name above,
BE took her from earthly cares
To Heaven, to taste ~unminglcd love.
She hath gone TO join Gods saints
On that delightful shore,
Where sickness. SORROW, pain and death,
Are felt and feared no more.
Then, fond brother, cease thy weeping,
Sorrowing children dry your tears,
Mother is only sleeping
Till her saYior's voice che hears.
Yes, she is sleeping. deaths cold white wings
Are folded around that precious brow;
She rests in peace on her Savior's breast,
No care can ever disturb her now.
When all who cast life's garb aside,
Lie down and are at rest,
/ did not think so soon the sod
Would lay upon thy breast.

Endicott and Whitney. Garland can

The Panhandle News, in speaking
Of the vast amount of idle talk in
dulged in about high taxes in West
Virginia, says truly that a compare
son shows that they are much less
than in other States. The tax per
capita in West Virginia is 1928; in
New England States the average is
S10.46; in the Middle States IS. 63 {:
in the Western States sG.97, and in
the whole United States the average
tax per capita is 1928. The little
Democratic State of Delaware is the
best off in this respect in the Union,
there being no State tax at all o n real
or personal property. There is no
debt, and the income from licenses
and railroads is more than sufficient
to pay current expenses.

The United States Senate adjourned
sine die last Thursday. The nomi-
nations of Mr.. A Leo Knott to be
Second Assistant Postmaster General
and Mr.. II. G. Pearson to be Post
master of New York city were CON
firmed, together with a number of
others. The name of A. r. Lawton,
nominated to be Minister to Russia,
was withdrawn by the President
Amongt the nominations not confirmed
was that OF joint. BIcGraw, to be
Collector of Internal Revenue for the
District of West Virginia. In his
case the point was made that the
present incumbent was an ex-Union
soldier, and that he had not served
four years. It was argued that
though the Office had no fixed term
the principles of the tenure of office
act were nevertheless applicable, and
Republicans expressed themselves as
opposed to making removals of the
kind proposed upon political grounds
alone. Amotion was made to postpone
action until after the list of pending
nominations had been gone over, and
upon . yea and nay note was carried
by q strict party vote. Several
others of the uncontirmed nomina-
tions were temporarily laid aside upon
the same ground, and when the list
had been completed the subject was
further discussed. There being no
prospect of agreement without long
debate it was concluded to postpone
action until December. The Presi-
dent, it is said, will at once proceed
to remove the officials for which sue
cessors have been nominated and
commission the respective nominees
TO ill the vacancies.
