on his owners farm until some time In the
year 1868. At that time Fredericksburg
and all the country below on the Kappa
hammock river was In the hands Of the
Union army. Finding a suitable oppor-

lines, and continued until he reached Fred

himself as cook to one Of the regi-

service he continued for several months.
Not satisfied to be separated from his
wife and child, whom he had left at the old
farm In Westmoreland county, he deter

them with him, within the Union lines at

with many misgivings, but with q brave
heart, knowing that the whole distance
was well guarded with rebel pickets. Not
many miles had been Travelled before the

however in eludlng them, and arrived

The POEMS OF HENRY ABBEY. New en-
larged edition. Kingston, N. y: HENRY
ABBEY, From the publisher. l VOL, 26O
pp., 10 mo-, cloth; sl,25.
We have carefully read this book with
great interest, pleasure, and satisfaction.
1t abounds in fancy, beautiful, true,
deep thought, and is eminently American.
The melody Of its expression is generally
exquisite, often grand. Some lines, how.
ever, occur In the blank verse which are
discordant, painfully 80. This defect We
attribute, not to the poets want of skill,
but his want of care. Though Milton Is
equally guilty OF harshness In many pas
sages, yet, not hesltating to blame Milton,
we also blame Abbey. These errors are SO
easily avoidable by so accomplished an artist
as our present poet that he should, of
course, avoid them. With the effect Of his
entire work wildly impressed upon our
mind the errors mentioned almost fade
away. Still, We wish they had never ex-
listed, as to us Henry Abbey is the most
delightful, original, and vigorous of Ameri-
can poets.

The poetess is "Friend.n Therefore all
gentleness and lovlngness Of heart may be
expected, and will be found to pervade her
composition. Yet, strange to say, melody
Of expression is seldom one Of its compo-
nents; indeed, only arriving at perfection In
a single instance-namely, the poem SIN
decision" Her verses generally are difficult
to read aloud by lover Of music, as, in his
struggle for harmony, he must often do
violence to the pronunciation OF the Ian
guage. Nevertheless, beautiful ideas are
frequent, as in "Sixty," "Who Has
Prayed ~ "Roses on My Bridal VEIL" "a

Comprehensively, the dainticst fancies
and deepest meditations are intruded on
frequently when they should not be at all
by the dullest commonplaces still the vol
ume is 80 full OF true love and noble feeling
that 1t is well worthy careful and thought

The President En- Route.

BosToN, MASS, November S.-The
Presidents train reached Springfield at
3.05 to-day. About one hundred specta-
tors had gathered at the station, but
nothing was seen of the distinguished
traveller The car containing the escort
party which had been waiting there was
attached to the Presidents carriage, and
the train went on. Short stops were
made at Palmer, Westbrookfield, Wou-
cester, and South birmingham, but
no demonstration was made at any
of those places AS the train reached
Rice's crossing the President came
to the rear of his car and met Ad-
iutant-General Dalton, Surgeon Holt,
and Judge-Advocate General Nettleton,
the escort party, all of whom were pre-
sented to Secretaries Bayard, Lamar, and
Colonel Lamont. In the course OF the
conversation the President voiced his eX-
pectation of meeting great many peO-
pie at the Fanueil Hall reception, and his
desire to see them. As the train ran
through Riverside local train had side
tracked to permit the express to run
ahead, which was passed, and the passen-
gers crowding the platforms and windows,
cheered Justify as the Presidents cal
swept by.
From this time until the train reached
Boston the Presidents car was saluted all
along the route AT precisely 6:30 A. NJ.
the train ran into the depot on Kneeland
street, the two rear cars being run back
and switched to the west track outside the
main depot. At this point Governor Rob
inson, with his aids and the corps of
cadets, were in waiting. Entering the
Presidents car, with his staff, Governor
Robinson, advancing to the President and
taking his hand, said "Mr. President,
heartily welcome you to Massachusetts" F"
The President said: 81 thank you,
Governor"
The Governor then made an address
of welcome.
President Cleveland responded appro-
priately to the address of welcome. After
this James Russell Lowell delivered an
address.
The party was then entertained at a
banquet. After the banquet the Presi-
dent was escorted to Fanueil Hall, where
he held a reception. There the President
and Mrs Cleveland, with untiring gra-
ciousness, received the elite of Boston
and New England. After grasping the
hand of the President and his bride each
individual was escorted by one Of the
very attentive ushers to the Common
wealth-avenue entrance, where carriages
were in waiting. Soon after 10 o'clock
amid cheers and music and good-byes, the
Presidential party were hurried into car
riages, and, escorted by the cadets, pro
ceeded to the Boston and Albany depot
where they embarked for New York on
the 10.30 train

Chicago Strikes.

CHICAGO, Ills, November S.-There
was considerable excitement but little
violence at the stock-yards this morning.
The deputy-sherif and Lake police were
patrolling about the houses and the rail
road tracks, dispensing all assemblages and
anticipating any attempts of crowds to
gather. Outside the yards large crowds
of strikers mad assembled in every ave-
nue. Of approach. Determined attempts
were made to prevent men on their way
to work from entering the yards. at
Armour's houses slaughtering was 60
ing on with mixed gangs of men, many
of the old hands being still at work, and
they and the new men were engaged sidd
by side, the best of feeling prevailing
between them. Most of the strikers are
pleased rather than otherwise at the call
ing out of the militia "The presence Of
the militia" said one, twill preserve or
der and keep under an element that our
committees cannot control Bloodshed
and riot is the worst thing that can hap
pen"
AT the yards now two packing houses
have been turned into boarding houses.
Ranges have gone in and cooks been en-
ployed by the month. The packers say
that this big clearinghouse, capable of
housing 1000 men, will be one of the
prominent features of the winter. Eight
hundred malitiamen left the Lake-Shore
depot at 1870 o'clock this morning for the
stock-yards. They were under command
of General Fitzsimons and Colonels Knox
and Wheeler. Their orders were to dis
embark at Thirty-ninth street and march
to Ferguson's packing house, which is to
be their barracks and headquarters during
the time they remain at the yards. All
seemed in good spirits, the prevailing
opinion being that no active duty would
be required, the moral effect of their pres
ence rendering little innocent patrol
duty amply sufficient to preserve the
peace and protect the property. The First
regiment carried their gatling-gun.

The Next Congress.

The smoke has pretty well lifted from
the political battlefield of Tuesday last,
and the actual results fail to show that
political ground swelI' in favor of the
Republicans which the journals of that
party, from one end of the Union to the
other, claimed for several days after the
election. 1t is true the Democratic ma
jority of forty-three in the Forty ninth
Congress has been reduced to about fif-
teen in the Fiftieth Congress, but much
of this loss is susceptible of explanation.
In Ohio, for instance, where the Demo
Gratis sustained net loss of five members,
the true cause of loss was most unjust

REVIEW

New YORK, November S.-The bear element
has been favored to-day by the labor troubles
in Chicago, and stocks have been sold by To-
cal traders, but if the course of the grain
market can be taken as being any criterion
of the feeling there, it would indicate that
but little importance was being paid TO them,
and that the reports received here have been
exaggerated. While no conspicuous buying
of stocks has been noticeable, the undertone
keeps very strong and the selling appears TO
be chiefly by the bear party, who failing in
everything else seem 10 be content TO bet on
something hitherto undiscernable turning up
to help them out. For ourselves we have
nothing new to say There is nothing what
ever TO alter the situation, and We still main
tain our confidence wholly unimpaired. Mar
ket closed firm. Money ruled per cent Ex-
change trihe higher-some of the stocks re-
