Congress had been in session over
seven months, and had done moth
ing to start afresh the wheels of
commerce, to set in motion the
mills that are now standing idle.
The labor troubles would cease
when labor was employed at re-
munerative prices. He thought
Congress ought to make an apprO-
priatiOn for rivers and harbors of
not less than twenty-five or thirty
million dollars. He expected that
a shout of "jOb" and dog. rolling
and other such terms would be
poured upon the Senate, but they
had no effect upon him.
The extraordinary order issued
by President Cleveland to all heads
Of governments, warning them and
their sub0rlinates against empha-

great size and the absence of any
personal responsibility on the part
of members should be taken into
consideration. With body com.
posed of four hundred members, it

Like fragrant odor, fingers still.

We learn Ia follow the path she trod.
To he more like her, who has gone TO God.
She has passed away like "a gentle breath.

The leaves on the trees will tiutter and fall,
And the drifting snow will cover all,
But she will peacefully. calmly rest,
Forever happy by angels blest.
