a PHANTOM.

& phantom there is which men call Death,
And he follows where er we go.
Like the north wind blast Is his icy breath
And his eyes have Il snake-like glow.
And he follows hard. ana he follows close
BE our footsteps fast or SLOW.
He sits By the King in his chair of state.
Aud he walks by the piowmans side,
For all Ike to him is the low or great
Mean birth or vaunted pride:
Impartial 10 ali he follows all
With a never-tiring stride
In the glades of peace or in scenes of strife.
In the hush OF the calm, or storm,
In the deep. still night, Or when danger rife,
At evening noon or morn
He walks, ne stands anG he lies by our side
This terrible phantom form
He sits al our board. and sits AT our hearth,
As a self-inyitci guest.
And offer when loudest the strains of mirth
Or keenest the wit and jest,
HIS shadow silently falls upon
That which the heart loves best
He skaters al will mans best laid schemes
With a touch of his sDecter hand.
And he daShes TO earth the brightest dreams
With wave of his unseen wand.
And strive as We viii we must obey
Whenever he gives command
Wherever a thing of life has been
On the land, or in sea. or air,
Where virtue dwells. or in the haunts of sin,
His shadow has fallen there
Leading back the soul in peace TO God.
Or quilting in despair.
oh, Il grim. grim thing Is this phantom Death,
And he follows whereer we go.
Like the north winds blast Is his icy breath.
And his eyes have u snake-like glow,
And he follows hard. and he follows close,
BE our footsteps fast or slow.

MesSrs. Editors In my last letter to The
UNION I referred to Towsontown and some of its
early settlers. In speaking of the Pearce family
| stated that there were five brothers of them and
told where three of them had subsequently located
but made no reference to the other two. The
names of the latter, if l mistake not, were John
and Philip. They went south and located in Ten
nessee, but of their later history not inform
ed. There were also two sisters in the family that
1 can recall. One of them married a gentleman
named Nathan Gorsuch, who lived on Pipe Creek
Carroll county. The other married gentleman
named Curtis and settled in Baltimore county
The latter was an Englishman by birth. would
be much pleased if some Of the relatives or friends
Of this family ge1ld write up the history Of the

few days ago l received sketch of the
Sparks family, of Baltimore county, written by
Mr.. John L. Kaufman, the WE'LL known trunk and
harness manufacturer on north Gay street, Balti-
more. 1t goes back to the year 1907, about the
time that John Rolfe emigrated from England to
America. This is the same Rolfe who married
Pocahontas, the daughter of Powhatan. Mr..
kauffman's great grandfather Sparks was lineal
descendant of a noted family of Sparkses, who
emigrated from England about the year 1907. 1t
is related that he was present at the wedding of
Rolte and Pocahontas. As am connected with
the Sparks family anything connected with them
possesses great interest for me.
On the 14th instant terrible cyclone passed
through the northeastern portion of this county,
doing considerable damage. passed into Atchi-

one place about 20 bushels of potatoes had been
left lying upon the ground and it swept them en-
tirey away, not leaving to tell the tale. A
gentleman named Walker had every building
upon his farm swept away; also his threshing
machine and other farm implements, carriages, &c.
wagon loaded with corn had been left standing
and the only thing left of it or its contents was
one wheel. Mr.. Walkers family barely escaped
by taking refuge in the cellar.

D-T Two weeks ago The UNION stated that
there was probability of Hon. J. Fred. C. Tai
bott again becoming candidate for Congress in
this district. This probability seems now to have
become fact, as The Sun of Friday says: "In the
Second district, composed of Cecil, Hartford, Bal
timore and Carroll counties, the canvass has de-
veloped almost to the point that it is safe to say
that ex Congressman ]. Fred. C. Talbot, of Bal
timore county, will contest with Congressman
Shaw for the nomination. Mr.. Talbot was in
this city on Saturday with his Baltimore county
friends. He said his friends want him to go into
the contest and that if he does he will do his best
1t is said the selections in the United States Mar
shal's Office indicate that Mr.. Talbot still has
friends at court. But he will have some lively OPP
position in Baltimore county. Hartford is count
ed upon as having friendly leaning to the Tai
bott party"

been comparing its official record with that of
Portland, Me-, in the matter of arrests for drunk

flashes on the average mind most strongly when
it is remembered that Portland is in prohibition

and orders have been issued that on Monday next
all who propose to observe the rule will begin
work at o'clock a. m. and stop at p. m. It

demanding that nine hours be considered days
work, with minimum pay at 1925 per day.
