Nobody Cares.

The following pathetic lines are going the rounds
of the press. The author is unknown:
I've toiled with my hands till the long day is
done,
But there's nobody glad for the bread have won ;
Nobody smiles when reach my lone room.
Nobody whispers, "I'm glad you have Gomez"
Nobody fingers with tenderest care
To brush back the locks of my damp, clustering
hair
No one with accents so loving will say,
"Darling. you're weary enough for to-day;"
Though my shoulder is bowed by the burden it
bears,
And 1 am SO weary-there's "nobody cares"
Father and mother are cold in the tomb,
With brother or sister for me there's no room
Chill Death seems my only attendant to be;
For Glover and friend hath he put far from me -
The broad streets are full of the young and the
gay
Who notice me not as pass on my way;
see their kind smiles and their bright, loving
hear fond words of welcome, and tender "good-
byes;"
But nobody asks how the poor toiler fares
am SO lonely, but-"nobody cares"
Thus lonely and sorrowing, day after day,
must walk as can on my desolate way,
/ must seek ever more for my pittance of bread,
TApul.sire the life here all pleasure lies dead;
NJ bright hope is budding in beauty for me;
No light on the slopes of the future 1 see;
But soon I shall rest for my work will be done;
A coffin and shroud be the need have won,
And they'll say when deaths pallor my sunken
cheek wears,
"loor thing she is dead, but-there's nobody
cares"
Oh ye who are happy in love lighted homes,
Where the demon of want or temptation ne'er
comes;
Oh! We who have wealth, who have hope, can ye
know
The long days of anguish, the dark nights of woe
Which cling to the lot of the friendless and poor
Who sicken and droop even at your next door?
Can We tell how they feel who must toll lest they
die,
While the bloom from the cheek and the light
from the eye
Fade out and they fall or are caught in the
Which are waiting for those for whom "nobody
cares"
Oh! notice the wan and pinched features you
see,
Remember how cheerful those sad eyes might be
IF only the cost of the lace at your throat,
Or the ribbons and plumes which so charmingly
Ger your thoughtless young brow was but loving
ly sent
To brighten the homes where their sad hours are
spent,
And few kindly words which you daily might
~-speak
Would bring back the roses to many a cheek,
For oh /! you know not how that being despairs,
Who must sorrow alone--for whom "nobody cares"
Oh turn from the diamonds you're coveting now,
And purchase a treasure more fair for your brow.
Go-raise up the soul that is bowed in the dust;
Go bind up the heart which a1iction hath crushed,
For the stars shall not glisten more lovely by night
Than the joy that shall shed forth its radiance
bright
For her, who, despising the whispers ofpride
Remember the toiler so lonely and tried,
And tighten, all ChriSt-like, the burden which
bears
On the shoulders of one for whom "nobody cares"

For The BALTIMORE COUNTY
Integrity.

Let no man expect to prosper in life,
or gain the respect and esteem of others,
without an unurvia.:-e course of inteo.
rity and virtue. He must place his heart
upon truth and be firm, whatever comes
to pass never to yield to vicious inf1u-
ences. 1t is only by watchfulness and
care-by sedulously guarding against
what is evil in its tendency-that any
individual can overcome the corrupt
principles of the world, and the deprav-
ity of his nature. A slight tampering
with sin-once yielding to a bad sug-
gestion-may pave the way to speedy
ruin. Who can tell the power of temp
tatiop2
Ye who are on the threshold of life,
beware, 6eava,e! Have an eye to the
allurements of the world, and gather
strength to resist the first temptation to
depart from your integrity. Let not a
blight tarnish your fair character, lest
darkness and fear Qike spectres) haunt
you forever. 1t is in your power to be-
come blessing to the world-to exert
an influence that will tell nobly for vir-
tue and truth, and will you do it1 Or,
by deviating from the path of integrity,
following the bent of your perverse ma
ture, and associating with the vicious
and unprincipled, prove curse to man
kind instead of blessing, and perish
covered with infamy. o, beware! look
to, and examine all the movements that
influence your conduct; guard the least
avenue to temptation; stay your hand,
seal your lips, lock the door of your
heart, look to God. By this course alone
you will gain respect, exert happy in
luence, and enjoy the heeting years of
your existence. G..
Ba~One evening, passing along a
crowded street, heard one boy saying
TO another, "IfI were rich wouldn't"
and then the rest of the sentence was
lost as | hurried on with the throng.
But have wondered often since how
that sentence was finished. Did the
boy say, eff were rich wouldn't snub
my poor relate ms, " eff were rich, l
wouldn't spend all the money on my
SELF" or, eff l were rich ] wouldn't
work any more," or what2
We cannot know, but there is one
thing quite certain. Whatever that boy
does now that he is poor, he would dc
if he were rich. If he is generous now
he would be generous then. If he il
mean now, he would be mean then. 1
he works faithfully now, he would worl
with fidelity then. For che that il
faithful in that which is least is faithful
also in much; and he that is unjust il
the least is unjust also in much. :"

How great a man is Hon. VIM
Morrison. But in all his greatness
he seems not to comprehend taat the
country has decided not to folio y his
tariff vagaries further than it. has
already been lead in the direction OF
utter ruin to its manufacturing, COM
mcrcial and agricultural interests.
His announcement Oh the floor of the
house that che will take care Of the
sundry civil appropriation bill" while
it manifests his own and his party's
rule or ruin disposition, need not
cause alarm for the safety of the gov
ernmeDt, for while that party, as a
party, is committed to the Morrison
tariff policy, there are enough individ-
ual members of the party in the house
who have the best interests of the
country at heart who will Join with
the Republicans TO check the lido
cratic schemes of Morrison and his
followers TO get notoriety at the ma
terial welfare of the country. If,
therefore, Mr.. Morrison and his CO.
obstructionists would save tn emselves
from the unenviable responsibility of
embarrassing the government which
must result from their course if per-
sisted in. they will heed the gentle
admonition given in the refusal of the
house to enter into an endless, sense
less discussion of the tariff question
at this late day, join in the work of
speedily concentrating the legitimate
and necessary work of the session,
adjourn and go home.

With ali the studied, Iaborious eff

With ali the studied, laborious ef-
forts of labor assemblies, legislatures
and congresses to solve the labor prob
lem and remove the causes that lead
to strikes, it seems that such troubles
will not cease. Hardly had the inter-
ruption to railroad traffic through and
from Chicago resulting from the
strikes of railroad operatives six weeks
ago been Strengthened out and adj
iusted until another strike occurs in
the same quarter, which, the telegraph
Informs us. bids fair to become more
formidable than any that has occurred.
There is something radically wrong
somewhere; what il is and where it is
seems difficult TO ascertain. In the
meantime the people of the country
have had their patience worn thread
bare with these interminable railroad
strikes, and if some other remedy is
not supplied, and that right soon,
governmental control of the railroads
of the country may be demanded as a
dernier resort, however much such
remedy may be deplored.

THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY FROM
A DEMOCRATIC STANDPOlNT.

From Chicago Times.
That which goes by the name of the
Democratic party is manifested only
in the forms, terms and methods OF
an election machine. 1t Is not form
alton of electors around any political
question. Though it is name applied
to a majority of the representatives,
it is not union of that majority in
anv political purpose. 1t is not a
party that guides, directs or controls
the representative decisions or the
political policy of the nation on any
public question. 1t is not the govern
ing party. The proof of this has been
furnished by fatal division among
the representatives of its name on
every public question Of Importance
that has entered congress since ma
jority appeared there confessing iheli
election by its machine. Ii is an or
ganized fraud. 1t is a hypocritica!
sham. 1t is name of conjuratiOn to
capture the votes of electoral fools
for the profit of Office seeking knaves.
The knaves that conjure by it are of
every political color, race and tribe,
as well as nOndescripts. They are pro-
tectionists and freetrades; civil service
reformers and incOrrigible spoilsmen;
progressive liberals and reactiOnary
bourbons; demagogues on every side
of every public question, united IN
nothing but habit of seeking their
personal advancement by methods OF
fraud.
When Randall and Morrison, pro-
tcctionist aud free-trader, entered
the same church, sat lovingly in the
same pew, subscribed TO the same
pretended articles of faith, they knew
that they were playing before the
country a game of deceit. When the
foremost free-trader and the foremost
protectionist united to place in the
chair a man who would place them
where they could most effectually
divide the pretended governing
party against itself, they knew and
he knew that it was a proceeding OF
political dishonesty. The consequence
was what every rational being fore
saw. They did not intend the rational
consequence of their performance! 1t
cannot be said that they were so fee
BILE of understanding as not to per-
ceive it. They saw the effect in the
preceding congress, and seeing ii de-
liberately proceeded. to repeat the
game offraud in this congress.
Again the country witnesses the
same result: witnesses the cumulative
proof that that which goes by the
name of Democratic party is not
political party, nor a body of repre-
sentatives capable of party govern
ment, but a ring of place hunting
gamblers on popular credulity, CO.
operating only to prevent party gov
eminent and to maintain an embargo
on political progress.

THE "A. T. d 8. F.

Rumors have been current for some
time that the Atchison, Topeka q
Santa Fe has determined to build an
independent line from Kansas City to
Chicago, and the fact that surveyors
in the employ of that company have
been making surveys between the
Mississippi river and Chicago rather
tended to confirm these reports. A
Chicago paper learns from q reliable
source that those surveys are made
for the purpose of concealing the real
objects of the Atchison, Topeka q
Santa Fe. There can no longer be
any doubt, it says, that the Atkinson,
Topeka s. Santa Fe is really trying to
secure an independent line to Chicago.
But it has no intention OF build
ing a new lie, but means to secure
control OF one of the already con.
structed roads. There has been an
| impression among railroad people for
| some time past that the Santa Fe Is
irving to effect traffic agreement
with the Chicago & Alton. 1t trans
| pires, however, that the owners OF
both roads are averse 10 such an ar
rangement, as it would not materially
help the interests Of either company.
This scheme therefore has been aban-
doned. and the AtchisOn, Topeka u
Santa Fe, it is learned, is now trying
to secure control of q majority of the
stock of the Alton and thus virtually
become its owner. From what can be
learned President Blackstone and the
other large stockholders Of the Alton
are not disinclined to dispose Of their
holdings to the Atchison. Topeka q
Santa Fe people provided they can
get their price for the same. The
high price asked for the stock il
claimed to be now the only obstacle
in the way OF the contamination OF
the trade. The stock OF the
Alton is quoted higher thar
that of any other western road, but II
lis claimed that it will be more profits
BILE for the Atchison, Topeka & SAINTS
Fee people to pay the large amount re
quired for a controlling interest in tn
Alton than to build new line or evel
TO purchase some other road which
could be had for much less money

adapted as a superior outlet for tn
Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe. 1
would not only give the Santa re tn
most direct outlet from Kansas Git!
to Chicago, but also from St. Louis {,
Chicago in connection with the 81
Louis & San Francisco, which is nov
connected by the Santa Fe. But tn
most important point is that the Al
ton affords outlets to the east from al
, the most important Junction point
: between Chicago and St. Louis, an!
would therefore enable the Santa r
to compete with any of the existing
western lines on east-bound business
whether going to Chicago or direct.
10 the east via any of the junction
points..Topeka Capital.
The EAGLE hopes the Santa Fe ma
succeed in getting a controlling inter
est in the Alton; it will give WIGHT
one more through trunk line.
