HoN.J G. BURROWS addressed the House
few days since, on the subject of abuses
in the postofiice department, severely ar
raigning represent postmaster general for his
utter disregard of law in the management
of the affairs of his Office. He closed
his address with the following oommendable,
vigorous and "ower true words
"And the browning infamy of this whole
business lay in the dishonorable methods
employed to secure the removal of honest
employees. If the democratic party wouldsay
to a republican: We want this Office because
you are a republican, and we want it for a
democrat because he is q democrat, that
would be honorable and manly. But the
party said We cannot do that, for we are
committed to the doctrine that removals
shall not be made for partisan reasons. We
must seem to keep our promises il we black
en- the good name of every republican in
the land. And so that party permitted,
nay, invited, charges to be- made against
faithful and upright public servants on
which they could be removed. And when
these gentlemen, or their friends, asked to
be advised of the nature of the charges,
this reform administration replied, This is
a sealed volume and you cannot be permit
ted TO open it,"

Golden wedding.

On Saturday. the Doth of March, Mr.. and
Mrs. Joseph Warner, living near Decatur, in
that indefinite locality known as across the
swamp" celebrated their fiftieth wedding
anniversary. Such an event occurs SO in
frequently as to be worthy Of more than q
passing notice. We have been furnished
with the following narration of the pleasant
affair which We deem worthy of place in
our columns: AT the old homestead of
Joseph and Eliza Warner in Volinia Cass
Co. Mich, fifty years ago, when the country
contained more than ten red men to one
white man, In little log cabin near what is
known az the Higgins mill, this then young
couple Joseph Warner and Eliza Ann Fox
were joined in marriage by Esq. Cavendaugh,
the ceremony being witnessed by CAMEL
Townsend, james Huff aud Wesley HUFF.
These five still remain but all others present
at the time have gone over to try the reali-
ties Of eternity. And strange as it may ap-
pear, James and Wesley Huff, two of the
witnesses who were present at the ceremony,
were also present on this occasion. II is a
very rare occurrence that the lapse of fifty
years should not only find the parties living.
but also the witnesses, and that they should
be present at the golden anniversary" Be
sides these, there were present Mr. Benz.
Warner, Mrs. Eugene Randolph, Miss Grace
Randolph, niece and grandniece from Mt.
Vernon, Mich, Mr.. James HUFF and wife
from Maroa, Ills, Mr.. j. M. Fox from Sand
wich, Ills, Miss frankie Fox from Chicago.
Ills, Mr.. Wesley Huff and wife from Wayne,
and the eight living children with their hus-
bands and wives, ten or twelve grandchildren
and one dear little great grandchild. all
present to enjoy the golden reunion of their
father and mother who seem TO have
come up through the past ages and to yet
linger on the shores of time.
Mr.. James Huff, one of tho witnesses to
the marriage of fifty years ago read the fol-
lowing paper:
"The fiftieth anniversary of the wedding of
Joseph and Eliza Warner, at their home in
Volinia, Cass County, Michigan, is the oc-
casion that calls rs together to-day. Such
an event is one of rare occurrence and can
happen but once in life time. Surely il
was pleasure to see young hearts pledged
to walk the path of life together, fifty years
years ago to-day. We had the pleasure OF
being present at the marriage of Joseph
Warner and Eliza Ann Fox in 1886, but now
it is beautiful and sacred sight to see
these parties whom the winter of age has
touched.
The far of days Of youth and love,
Perchance, from memory never fade,
But faithful constancy doth prove
The sunght's only shade.
And oft from memory's casket dear,
We ope the golden clasp,
And view again our chiidhood's years,
A mirror Of the past.
II is a gratifying privilege to meet with
your family and friends on this very happy
event in your lives, and to congratulate you
upon the health, comfort and happiness
with which Won are surrounded, aud these
testimonials seem added proof of the friend
ship. high regard and affection which your

And when LIES toilsome task Is done,
And weary feet their course have run,
Aud when at eve the sun goes down.
Agolden peace may be thy crown"
Mr.. Fox of Sandwich, Ills. made some
very appropriate remarks. after which, in
well chosen words he presented to the
worthy couple the tokens of regard and es-
TEEN which loving friends had provided for
the occasion. The only response they could
make was to return their broken thanks
their eyes filed with tears of gratitude; their
hearts were too full for more. Remarks
were made by others of the guests which
added much to the interest of the occasion
Among the interesting incidents of the day,
was the production of two ancient chairs
used at the wedding fifty years before, some
what the worse for wear but still service
able. We could fancy that these relics of the
past seemed 10 enjoy the occasion until they
were replaced by a couple of new and com
Portable chairs of modern make when we could
imagine them saying, "well, dear old couple
we Introduce you to tue ueW anu Dcltsr ser
wants. We are tired"
Among the many appropriate presents was
the portrait, elegantly painted, of dear one,
Frank K. Warner, who passed away some
two years since. II was presented by Mrs,
Rebecca Warner, wife of the deceased and
seemed to cast shadow over all which was
hard to overcome, until Mrs. Wesley Huff, a
sister of Mr.. Joseph Warner arose and said
that she still retained letter written by her
brother Joseph, sent from the wilds of Mich
igan to old Massachusetts, more than fifty
years ago, saying that he was about to tie a
knot with his tongue that she could not I'M
tie with her teeth. She continued her re-
marks in strain that seemed to revive the
saddened feelings and set things Alright
again. Mr.. Fox read portion of scripture
and offered a prayer. after which all repaired
to the dining room where the tables were
grooming beneath the weight of a bountiful
repast. prepared, for the most part, by Miss
Lou Warner, and provided by her brother
Milton. These two children still remain al
the homestead and care for their parents as
though they were little children. After
having enjoyed an exceedingly happy time
the guests repaired to their respective homes
That the worthy couple whose golden anniver-
sary they celebrated, may be spared foi
many year to come is the prayer of theil
children and numerous friends.
