WESTON, Sept. 10, 1893.
ny Dear Cousin: Bellman like, I announce

pulled many years ago, and copy 1 now
end is little different from the original
one:
Fhe rose that I sing had been bathed in G
shower
PrOlu>el and hastily shed:
The plentiful moisture encumbered the flower
And weighed down its elegant head.
The cup was all filed, the leaves were all wet
And it seemed to a fanciful view.
To weep for the home il had left with regret
In the howery scene where II grew.
Unfit as 10 was for the use OF the fair,
With foliage 80 dripping and drowned,
| shook IL anu swung 1t with too little care
snapped tilt fell to the ground.
And such. / exclaimed. is the pltiless part
Some act by the delicate mind,
Rerar ! ss Of wringing nd breaking heart
Already to sorrow resigned.
This rose might have held had shaken il less.
It's unblemished beauty awhile,
And the tear that IL wiped with . little ad .
dress
May be followed. perhaps by a smile.

The Yellow Fever Commission.

There seems to be a friendly feeling
among Congressman towards the bill OF
Senator Eustis providing for a commits
sion to visit Mexico and Brazil and in
quire into the inOculating experiments Of
Drs. Ca.mons aud Friere for the prevent
ion of yellow fever.
1t is thought that the only obstacle to
the passage Of the bill is the attitude
which the National Board of Health has
suddenly assumed with regard TO it. This
institution was looked upon as moribund,
and the yigor which it is showing in
this matter occasions surprise.
The National Board of Health wants to
take charge of the work OF investigating
the experiments OF Drs. Carmona and
Friere, and threatens TO defeat the bill if
its desire is not gratified. II is by no
means certain that it can defeat the bill,
but there is no doubt that it can retard IL.
1t might even cause some Congressman
to question the advisability Of mourning
the expense OF such a commission, in
view OF the fact that no effort seems TO
have been made to find out from sea Cap
tains trading at Rio Janeiro and, visitors
from that city, whether DR.. Friere's eX-
perlments command attention there.
Sea Captains arriving at this port from
Rio Janeiro say that DR.. Friere's expert
ments are not considered important in
his own country. but it may be that these
sea Captains are not well informed.

Mr.. Gladstone,s Programme.

Mr.. GladstOne's programme for Ireland
is awaited with deep interest. 1t Is not
believed that he will attempt to use ex-
traordiuary means for the sup
preston OF social disorders. Mr..
MorIey's appointment as Chief Sec
rotary fof Ireland indicates that there
will be nothing in the shape of coer-
cion. tits probable that the ordinary pro-
cesses Of law will be amply sufficient to
preserve the peace and insure protection
to all classes. The Nationals. press and
leaders are using their influence against
lawlessness.
Tue two questions with which Mr.. Glad
stone will undertake to deal at once are,
doubtless, those relating to land aud to
home rule. A good deal depends upon
which he undertakes TO handle first.
The Parnelhtes, doubtless, would
like TO have precedence given
to the home rule issue, be-
cause they would then have a chance to
settle the land question themselves, and
1t may be that they will insist that it shall
have precedence. lfthey do it pretty GER
tain that Mr.. Gladstone's government
will be short-lved. He cannot carry
his party with him in be-
half OF home rule. Indeed, all the indica-
tons are that public sentiment in Eng
land will have to be educated up 10 the
home rule idea before Ireland wllh be per-
mitted TO have control OF her own affairs.
The pressure against permitting the Irish
to settle the land question is altogether too
strong TO be resisted. II tue Parnellites
therefore insist upon taking up the home
rule question first they will simply defeat
the government.
There is a chance OF reaching some sort
Of an agreement with respect TO the land
question. that will be at least partially
satisfactory. The Liberal party
is rather inclined TO favor
liberal legislation with respect
TO land. The Parnell.tes may, after care
ful consideration, prefer TO take hat they
can get rather than TO demand something
which, from present appearances, is about
impossible. A reasonably satisfactory
settlement OF the land question may be
followed by limited nome rule at some
time not far in the future. 1t might be

keep themselves in readiness TO renew
their demands at the first favorable op.
portunity. Mr. Gladstone seems disposed
