NIGHT,
BY VICTOR HUGO.

A little child, beside me, fresh and fair,
In slumber so profound and calm you slept
You did not hear the doves, that murmuriDR
there
In the deep shade their tender vigil kept,
Pensive / breathed the somber sweets of
night
The solemn night.
heard the angels fiutter round your head,
And watched your closeshut lids: pale
primrose flowers,
With noiseless touch. upon your sheets spread
And prayed, with wet eyes, through the
silent hours,
Thinking on all that in darkness waits
Lies hid and waits.
One day will be my turn so sound to sleep
That /, like you, shall hear no murmuring
dove:
The night will be so dark, the rest so deep;
Then you will come, then you will come, my
love,
And pay me back my gifts of fair white flow
Prayers, tears and flowers.

THE CROSS IN THE SNOW.
BY II. W. LoNGFELLow.

In the long, sleepless watches of the night,
A gentle face-the face of one long dead
Looks at me from the wall, where round it's
head
The night.lamp casts halo of pale light.
Here In this room she died: and soul more
white
Never through martyrdo-n of fire was led
To its repose; nor can in books be read
The legend OF life more benedight.
There is mountain in the distant West
That, sun-defying, in its deep ravines
Displays a cross of snow on its side.
Such is the cross l wear upon my breast
These eighteen years, through all the chang
ing scenes
And seasons, changeless since the day she
died.
From LonGfeuops Biography.
The Universalist. [volume] (Chicago [Ill.]) 1884-1897, 1886-08-28

Though dark the flowers, though dim the sky
Love lent them light when she was nigh.
Throughout creation but knew
separate worlds-the one, that small,
Beloved, and consecrated spot
Where Lea was: the other, all
The dull, wide waste, where she was not.

About Flowers.


Concerning the beauty of double flow
ers and their birthright of admiration, we
have come upon statement from a very
old authority, Mr.. John Parkinson, who
published highly embellished and qaite
valuable work on gardening, in London.
A. ID. 1929: eff it shall be demanded,
from whence then came these double
flowers that we have il they were not soc
made by art, answer that assuredly all
such flowers did first grow wilde, and we're
found double as they doe now grow in
gardens, but for how long before they
were found they became double no man
can tell; we only have them as nature
has produced them, and soc they re-
maine"
When the lower leaves Of plant turn
yellow and begin to drop off it is sure
indication of something wrong. 1t has
likely had either too much water or not
enough. Sometimes it is want of sun
light, or too much of that good thing, and
then again it may be deficiency of fresh
air. Ii through any of these causes the
fine rootlets of the plant have been de-
stroyed, take it up, shake off the loose
earth, and repot it, in either new pot or
one which has been thoroughly washed,
so that the drainage can fully escape
through the pores. Allow only an inch
or so Of soil between the plant and the
pot, and when you water add some care
and observation.
Never water plants with cold water;
have the water approximate the temper
AZURE in which the plants are. 1t is
very good plan 10 add about table,
spoonful OF ammonia 10 every two gal
Ions of water once in two weeks.
Some one declares gypsum used as a
dressing is a preventive OF mildew on
roses.
Somewhere somebody else gives this
terrific combination for the destruction
OF pestiferous insects; and we think that
the insect. or the vertebrate either, for
that matter, which could exist within
fourteen miles of the compound might
be considered proof against extermina-
ton. 1t Is as follows: "Boil quart of
soft soap with two gallons of sour milk,
and when cold add one gallon Of kerosene
oil. The whole after being churned for
half an hour is to be diluted with water"
A novelty in floral designs consists in
introducing birds-the white Java spar
rows, blue jays and humming birds are
so used.

NornIsG would tend more to
strengthen and solidify the Demo-
cratic party in Southern California
than the appointment by the Gov
ernor Of an U. S. Senator from
amongst our people. The northern
portion OF the State has always had
the Senators from their section and
to lose one temporary incumbency
would not affect them, while it would
be new and peculiar experience to
the Democrats OF Southern California
that could not prove otherwise than
beneficial. As mere matter of
party policy, outside the justice Of
the position, we should be given the
appointment.

IN would seem that anybody with
1he faintest CLEAN of common sense,
vouid be in favor of getting rid OF the
f54,inese by means of the present
=aovement, If their exclusion can be
aceomplished without violence or
6loodshed, as it assuredly can If a
ueneral policy of unemployment is
Vy4aifhfully carried ont with reference
70 them. II requires very little fore
aieht to discern the fact that the two
races cannot permanently live in
oeace together. Ultimately either
caucasian or Monaghan will be crowd
"a out. The Caucasian, it is folly to
expect will ever give way peacefully.
The Longer exclusion is delayed, the
more numerous the Chinese will be-
come. and the harder il will be to dis
lodge them. II delayed too long, the
conseuuences may be appalling At
this time there is every prospect that
the policy OF non-employment will
succeed in peacefully forcing the
Rfongels from our shores. 1t should
be faithfully followed throughout the
state. TO teach any other doctrine
is to not only perpetuate the evils in
cident upon the presence of the Chi
pese. but to continue curse that will
bequeath to our children dreadful

Deasn OF Ex-s.overnor irwin.

Yesterday the telegraph brought
kls the tidings of the death of ex-Gov-
brnor William Irwin. He died at
San Francisco, after short illness.
trhis will be sad intelligence to the
hosts Of Governor Irwin's friends all
bver the Coast Mr.. Irwin first be-
came known to the public as editor
pf a Democratic journal at YrelSa, in
Eiskiyou county. He afterwards
jserved in the State Senate, where he
made an honorable record, which
we'll earned for him the recognition
le received when he obtained the
domination OF his party for Governor
lin 1875. In the election OF that year
Ihe was elected Governor OF the State
over L. G. Phelps, the Republican
nominee, and John Bidwell, indie
pendent, receiving more votes than
both his opponents. During the four
wears of his incumbency OF the guber-
material office he was model Execu-
hive. OF magnificent and imposing
ersonal appearance, digniiied in
manner, honest, able, genial and
>lskiotic, he was typical Governor
81 the Golden State. All parties equal
1y point back to his administration as
*he standard OF excellence. Regardless
'of all political differences, he will be
1nourned throughout the State. Al
fhe time Of hfs death Gov. Irwin held
ofiice as one of the State Harbor Com
missioners, to which he had been ap-
pointed by Gov. stoneman, Gov
Irwin was originally a printer, and
tssne from Butler county, Ohio. In
his death the State has sustained a
reat loss. There are few such citizens

Los Angeles daily herald., 1886-03-16


In the United States there are over
twelve millions Of people residing in
cities Of over eight thousand inhablt-
ants. In ls4S, there were only three
millions living in the cities, in this
country. The population OF the cities
comprises over one-fiith of the whole
people, and the relative proportion
towards those living in the country"
increases year by year. The growth
OF the large centers like New YORK
Philadelphia, Chicago and San Fran
cisco, Is something marvellous, and
is one Of the wonders OF the century.
The aggregation OF these immense
masses in the cities is causing pros-
lens OF government which the found
ers OF the Republic never dreamed OF.
The successful and pure management
OF public affairs in these large cities
is one Of the most perplexing tasks
devolving upon our democratic form
Of government. 1t cannot be said
that the results thus far
have been altogether satisfactory,
but government, after all, IS
only reflex OF the
people governed, and there is no rea-
son why those who govern themselves
should not be the equals, in all re-
spects, OF those WHO are subject to
hereditary rule. In fact at the pres
ent time, in London and other large
European cities, there are Just as
many disorders Of almost every kind
as in this country, growing out oil the
new conditions in which humanity
finds itself in the big cities Of the
world, under the influences OF nine
teenth century civilization. The be-
lief in the divine rights, powers and
abilities of Kings is regarded as
Ridiculous absurdity almost every
where in these days, and so the peo-
pie find themselves thrown entirely
upon their own resources in regard to
government, no matter what its NOM
inal STYLE may be. Kings and Queens
have become mere figureheads. They
do not govern, in any sense. They
arc mere excrescences on the body
polite, which will in few genera
tions, at most, be Topped off and dis
carded all over the globe. That the
people nominally subject to them
are well or badly governed is not due
to them in the one case, norris it their
fault in the other. 1t is also true
that because our republican institu-
tions have not in all cases in the
largest OF our cities exhibited the
purest and best results of law, order
and good government, is no argu-
ment against Republic. With the
same elements Of population, and the
same numbers and conditions, it is
doubtful ii the problem OF gov
ernment in large cities could have
Eaeen worked out with as great de-
gree OF success under any other form.
The proper methods OF government
in large cities will no doubt first be
developed in the United States, al
though the subject is immense in its
proportions, and merits all the deep
consideration it is receiving from the
ablest minds in the nation.

Not symptoms, HUT the disease.


1t would seem to be truth appreci.
able by all and especially by professors
of the healing art, that to remove the
disease, not to alleviate its symptoms
should be the chief aim of medication.
Yet in how many instances do we see
this truth admitted in theory. ignored in
practice. The reason thai Hosletter's
Stomach Bitters is successful in 50 many
cases, with which remedies previously
tried were inadequate to cope, is atlrl'
butable TO the fact that it is a medicine
which reaches and removes the causes OF
the various maladies to which 1t is adapt
cd. Indigestion, fever and ague, liver
complaint, gout, rheumatism, disorder
of the bowels urinary alice ions and
other affections are not palliated merely
but rooted out by it, 1t goes to the
fountain head. II is really, not nomin'
ally, radical remedy, aud 1t endows
the system with an amount Of Vigor
which is the best protection against
disease.
