Psalms xii g.


Written by one Of Mr.. Mills Couvcusl
o, when tossed by the tempest DER lifc's
ANA appalled, 10y the sound of the breaker
loud roar,
Christ appeared us thrice blessed Saviour
to me,
And in Hlm sought refuge and guidance to
shore.
Yes, I've reached the blest haven of safety
at last,
Where the dangers no longer my bark can
o'crwhcm,
For the anchor OF Faith in the bedrock is fnst,
Aud the Masters firm hand is now guiding
the helm.
Like the sun, in its glory, His love an alone
Pierced the gloom with radiance nauEht
could suppress;
And all through the long night OF my dark
ness IL shOuC,
AZ IL beacon of hope to IA ship in distress.
And though dire was the grief which assaulted
when my poor shattered vessel was blown
1t was turned into JOY when affections pure
lGht
Brightly shonc through the storm-clouds to
plot me back.
All May II bark has been driven like mine
From the track-way which leads to the
heavenly strands;
And but few ever seek fora guidance divine
To cs cape being wrecked on the trcacherOus
sands.
Then accept Of the Master who's seeking to
save
Every vessel upon this great ocean OF HE,
SO that none may sink meath the tempestuOus
wave.

\ great deal 90 talk has been occasiJns,!

sends the President his salary -$4.I66 Ct
the odd change in bright new silver and
copper cents, and the notes a. new and Of
the latest issue. Mr. Cleveland, like bis
predecessors. keeps private bank account
with Riggs & Co. and the day after he
gets his salary he makes Il deposit, reserv-
ing enough to pay current expenses. II is
said that his account has shown as large
a balance as $35, 900, as he ha. an income
besides his official salary. Before lie en-
tered public life he made from $4,000 to
$4,000 year by his practice, aud his ex-
penses were not more than $4,000. He
has savei much of his first years salary,
but now that be is married his expenses

The President on Monday sent to Con-
gress fifteen veto messages, six of which
were sent to the Senate and nine to the
House of Representatives In his message
vetoing the bill granting pension to
Elizabeth s. De Kraft the President says
his objection is that it is of no possible
advantage to the beneficiary: that the pre-
sent pension laws give her all the advan-
tages which she should receive under the
special law. The President adds: 81 am
so thoroughly tired of disappearing gifts
of public money to individuals whe, in
my view, have no right or claim to the
same, notwithstanding apparent congress
ional sanction, that I interpose with a
feeling of relief in case where find it
unnecessary to determine the merits OF
the application. In speaking of the pro-
miscuous and ill-advised grants of pen
sions which have lately been presented to
me fer approval, have spoken OF their
apparent congressional sanction" in rec
ognition of the fact that large proper
ton of these bills have never been sub
mitted to a majority of either branch OF
Congress, but are the result of nominal
sessions held for the express purpose OF
their consideration, and attended by a
small minority of the members of the leg
islativs branch of government. Thus, in
considering these bills, have not felt that
I was aided by the deliberate judgment OF
the Congress, and when have deemed il
my duty to disapprove many of the bills
presented, have hardly regarded my &C.
ton as dissent from the conclusions OF
the peoples representatives.

In the Senate committee on Indian af-
fairs on Thursday of last week the long
pending nomination of Morris A. Thomas
for Indian inspector was finally disposed
of. 1t was determined by majority of l
to report the nomination with favorable
recommendation. The majority is com
posed of the four democratic members and
Mr.. Bowen, of Colorado. 1t is understood
that no one of the minority of the commit
tee will make any fight in the Senate a
gainst Mr.. Thomas except, possibly, Sena-
tor Harrison. This has encouraged the
friends of Mr.. Thomas to anticipate his
confirmation when his case is reached in
order in executive session.
