Senator Sawyer.

From The Neto York Tribune.
Mr.. Weed told me, upon my saying to him
that there would never be a Democratic Sena-
tor from Wisconsin as long as Senator Sawyer
is alive, that he knew Mr.. sawyer when he
was an ordinary day abOrer in this State. ut
must be all of thirty years ago or more" he
continued, that sawyer was at work in log
ging and coal and iron mining for the Ham
mOnds, about eight miles from Crown Point
in Essex county. They had a saw mill, an
iron mine. and blast furnace. sawyer was
a very hard worker. ami he had saved about
$4,000 when he went to Wisconsin late in the
fortles. All of his children must have been
born before this time. There is a story
of the manner in which he made his
he left here. He was natural woodsman,
besides having good level head and good
judgment. Pine lands in Wisconsin and
NJ chlgan were still unoecupled. The big land
sales occurred along in lS49 or 1850. For nearly
two years Sawyer tramped over all the big
pieces of government lands, making marks
should come off. Meanwhile he was scrapng
together all the money he coud possibly
gather. When the sales took place big syn
,tcate had got hold of the fact that Sawyer
was the only man who really knew the value
Of the woodland. When he began to bid on a
tract at the first days sale they bid against
him and took it off his hands. They followed
this up all day long. When he found
that they were aware of his secret he
wisely kept on bidding for the day so that
they might not be alarmed, but at night he
procured the services of young LAWYER of
Oshkosh, to whom he entrusted the bidding
IN of land for himself for the next ten DAYS.
His own bidding was entirely on swamp
lands and the poorest pieces of property in the
government domain. In every case the agent
of the syndicate ran the property up and
bought it at a big price. Meanwhile SAWYER
agent, the little lawyer. was quietly bidding
in for him all the really valuable property at {
song Within two years he had resOlo
enough of his possessions to clear himself and
have two millions in hand. He has been a
heavy lumberman ever since and his wealth
is estimated from $25 900 900 to $50, 600, 000."

And Mary. with like confidence, stepped to
her lovers side. Her fathertr 10 stop her,

From the London Spectator.

from the Loa6O1 spectator
Only an old musician,
Wasted with cruel care,
Climbing, YEARLY climbing,
thronging gallery stair;
Only peoples concert
Crowded from roof to floor,
Only fair girl singing
They never had heard before,
Only brave girl ending
Only an old world song,
Only a glad girl bowling
To the plaudits loud and long;
An! but the same voice lifted
Anew in a strange, sweet strain;
All! but passionate silence
And a rush Of tears like ram.
Only daughter singing
Only that Old mau's tune,
An! but gush of music
Like the nightingale in juno.
Then a sudden storm of che aring
From the heart of that m ghty throng,
And glad girl clasping the father
She has saved by only q song.

campaign has been a most disgracetul

The Brunswick Hotel is no more the Water

City Hall, but there are people who are deter

"I'il be burned if 1 do! why didn't you tell
me when first came in that this was hotel?'
