THE OLD HOME.

remember an old gray farmhouse,
An NOISY, and stained with time;
With film of old age upon It,
While yet It stood in its prime.
A broad, low browed old homestead,
Where cambering wi d wosdbine
Hung out its flames In the autumn,
Like wreafhs on holy shrine
Great, dropping elms swayed DER 1t;
And poisoning lilacs tall.
Thrust their purple plumes In the windows,
With the bees they held In thrali.
All under its roof so NOISY,
And around Its hearth so wsrms
II gathered its happy children.
In q merry. busy swarm.
With the beat Of rain on its shingles,
II IuIled them all to rest,
When spring brought tn, muttertng showers
surging up from out the west
As hen soo,hes her sleepy chickens,

Now floating DER rivers dep.
Till sink in that rushing sweeping sea,
Down to the land OF sleep.

THE CAM PAICN.
Is the p. & o. Railroad an Issue In
This Election?
To the Editor of the Press:

To the Editor Of the Press:
1t is commonly reported on the street that
Judge Knight is to be supported by all the
railroad influence of the city, and that a
scheme is on foot which involves the sale or
lease OF the Portland & Ogdensburg railroad
to the Boston q Maine railroad. 1t is fur
ther said that Mr.. Chapman is to be defeated,
If possible, through these agencies, because
he has seen fit to voice the sentiments of the
commercial interests of Portland in opposi-
ton to any scheme which would deprive the
city of its control of the road or permit it to
fall into the hands of any corporation or set
of men who would use it, as the Portland g.
Rochester railroad has been used, to shut off
competition in freight rates to this city.
There are many things that give color to this
rumor The opposition to Mr.. Chapman has
to large extent been engineered by men
who are identified with railroad interests
and rings. The attorney for the Boston &
Maine railroad was conspicuous member of
the convention which nominated Judge
Knight, and his active participation in local
politics, after so many years OF seclusion,
would indicate unusual interest in the result
of this election. 1t is not to be forgotten
that it is largely through the activity OF MT
Chapman, who organized the cltlZenS meet
ing last fall, that the scheme of Mayor
Deering and others to oust the city of its
control of the Portland q Ogdensburg rail.
road was defeated. Are the merchants OF
Portland disposed to allow Mr.. Chapman to
be sacrificed at the dictation of railroads for
having so vigorously defended their inter
ests? Is it better to vote for a candidate for
Mayor who is supported by railroad infiu-
ence rather than for a man who by his indie
pendent and public spirited course has in
CURED the hostility of these corporations?
These are questions which it is well for our
citizens calmly to consider.

The planets in maycn

The Providence Journals astronomer re-
ports that Jupiter is morning star until the
21st, when in astronomical classification he
ranks as evening star, as from that time he
is on the suns eastern side. The law is that
planets on the eastern side of the sun are
evening stars; those on the western side are
morning stars. On the 21st, at l o'clock
in the afternoon, Jupiter is in opposition
with the sun. He passes from the SUMS
western side to his eastern, and is in line
with the earth and the sun, the earth being
in the middle. As the event takes place a
few days after the middle of the month, OBJ
servers will see Jupiter in his best aspect be-
fore and after opposition. He rises soon
after sunset before the event, and rises be-
fore sunset after the event. He is superb
object for star gazers. Mars is morning star
until the 9th, when he changes his role to
that of evening star, for the same reason
that has been illustrated in the case of
Jupiter He comes into opposition with the
sun on the 9th, at 7 o'clock in the morning
Uranus is morning star until the 26th, when
like Mars and Jupiter, he takes his turn i'm
coming into opposition with the sun. Sat-
urn is evening star. Venus is morning star
during the month. Mercury is evening star
and it is the best time of the year to see him
with the naked eye. Neptune is evening
star. AT the close of the month the planets,
with the exception of Venus, are all evening
stars, in the following order of distance from.
sun, beginning with the nearest; Mercury,
Neptune, Saturn, Mars, Jupiter and Uranus.
Inere Will be an annular eclipse of the sun
the oth The path of the beautiful phenom-
en0n is chiefly confined to the Pacific Ocean,
the central line crossing land in Mexico.
The eclipse will be invisible in New England,
but will be visible as q partial eclipse IN the
greater part of the United States and in the
eastern part Of Australia.

AN INTERESTING SUIT
For Libel Against the New York Eve
ming Post by Rev. Or. Ball.

New YORK, Feb. 26.-The Tribune to-
day contain letter from a cores
pondent i'll Buffalo, who writes that the pre-
liminary skirmishing in the libel case Of the
Rev. DIR. George H. Ball, against the New
New York Evening Post has resulted in a
decisive success for the plaintiff. The COM
plant in this action was based upon three
articles published in that journal in August,
1884, for the obvious purpose of breaking
the force of certain disclosures respecting the
private life of the Democratic candidate for
the Presidency.
The articles charged among other things
that the Rev. DR.. Ball, who was held re-
sponsible for these disclosures, was not re-
spectacle; that he was ian adventurer =
and that he represented himself to be Bap-
tist minister, when in fact he was not; that
he had been a rowing and irresponsible
character; that he was compelled to leave a
city where he once resided, lowing to an in
suit" that he offered ''to Christian LADY,"
that he was bribe taker a .corruptor of
elections publisher of disgusting libels, a
miscreant and vampire. The plaintiff, as
his counsel pleads his case, is. a clergyman
full of years and honors, an officer in various
missionary societies and educational institu-
tions of the Baptist denomination, and wide
ly known throughout the United States as
Christian minister and teacher He is now
and for 23 years has been, the pastor Of the
largest and most influential Baptist church
in this city, during all of which time he re-
ceived the highest place in their confidence
and respect. He accordingly sued for libel
the journal which had been conspicuous in
attacking him. The tactics of the defend
ant were very curious. The plaintiffs COM
plant had been carefully drawn so as to Sc
cure a yindication of his reputation from
personal assaults, without dragging into the
controversy the President of the United
States. The defendant in his answer delib-
erately extended the scope of the judicial in
quiry so as to embrace the private scandals
of the Presidential campaign. The plaintiff
made motion at special term of the SUI
preme Court for bill of particulars, his
moving papers showing that the allegations
of the answer concerning which he desired
the particulars were so vague and general
that he did not know with what he was
sought to be charged with therein, and that
he could not safely prepare for or go to trial
unless the particulars were furnished He
obtained the order. This order was sus-
tanned on appeal to the General Term, Jus
tice Smith writing the opinion, and Justices
Barker and Bradley concurring.

The Kennepec Ice harvest.

The Reporter says that the ice men in this
vicinity will get more ice than they supposed
they would, particularly if we have week
or so of cold weather soon. Capt Rich is
running in some that is from 10 to % inches
thick. The Knickerbockers are running in
at their Farmingdale houses from their field
at Browns Island. The ice is II inches, and
has been planed two or three times. They
also have IL inches of second crop in the ed
dy near the Farmingdale house. The Wash
ington companies opposite South Gardiner
are about ready to cut the second crop
where they cut out the dirty ice. Haley finds
considerable good ice, and has already got
5000 or 5000 tons, and expects to get more.
Berry has got $4,000 tons, and expects to get
10000 more with a little more cold weather.
The Independent Ice Company of Pittstonl,
commenced running ice Wednesday, A
New York correspondent says the amount
of shortage on the Hudson depends good
deal on the weather for the next two weeks,
but estimates they will have three-ftths
crop there
