GENERAL AND CRITIuuLAR.

The galleries of the Senate
Were filled with Indies fair
II seemed that all the angels
OF Heaven Were gathered hare.
The youngest and the faires,
The oldest and the gray
Had met IN sweet assembly,
Upon that fatal day.
Their hearts were light aud happy,
They did not know their doom
When all at once the Ransom
Shone on them through the gloom.
He sat there In his glory,
His cuffs, so long aud clean,
His broadcloth trim and tidy,
His head a shimmering sheen.
Then first carcssing Ransom,
He turned his eyes on them
And crushed each winsome woman
From furbelow to hem
They offered no resistance,
Not one OF safety tn ought;
Their hope was meath the axles
Of Beauty's Juggernaut.
And when the gal'ry keepers
Went in to sweep the place,
They saw sight of terror
That blanched the darkest face.
The floor was strewn with ladies,
All crushed and mashed and dead
"lt seems the Lady Killer
Has been around," they said.
And where, oh, where was RansomY
Ask of the tempest wild
When he was told the story
He showed his cuffs and smiled.

THE NEW YORK PRESS.

The TriJun6 this morning congratulates the
friends of American ships upon substantial
victory In the Senate in the SstOC0 subsidy
amendment to the Postofice Appropriation
bill. The proposition is "a step towards the
relief of our steamship lines" and 'it trusts
the House will have sufficient wisdom to
adopt it,"
The World says: 1.-THE Anarchist has no
more place in this system of ours than wolf
in sheep.fold. Workingmen should beware
of the red fag-the symbol of blood and dis
order-and have no aflilation with those who
make labor troubles pretext to rob, deface
and revolutioniZe."
The Times says that the passage OF the
subsidy amendment Is "a demonstration of
the skill and strength of the lobby that was
disgraceful to the Senate, The measure Is "a
naked piece of favoritism."
The Sun urges, "Mr Morrison and every
other member of the Committee on Rules
and all patriotic Congressman, whatever their
politics, to throw their votes directly against
many Of the pension jobs that now threaten
TO swamp the revenue"
The star holds that II is the tariff which
makes living high and keeps the demand
fer labor small aud uncertain. The work
ingmen Will be happier and will have
steadler employment and more satisfactory
earnings whon the tariff tax shall be re
duced."
The HfJ0H says the passage of the River
and Harbur bill will give President Cleve
land the opportunity for commendable veto
II also will demonstrate the disadvantage o
compelling the President TO veto the Who'll,
bill OF none of IT.
