"oh, never mind him, granpa, he'll be Presl-

He paints plcters on the barn, all in boylsh

An he scampers like rabbit when he sees
his gran'pa come.
Then when supper's over he'll come 90 me an

Gran pa, what You goin' to do, cause |

An amt the heart TO scold him an spoil

For kinder think myself that he'll be Presi

CRITICULAR.


rHr DESTRUCTION oF THE CANDIDATES.
The candidates came down like wolf on
The fold
Their boomers all loaded with champagne
and gold,
And each of them roarcd for his fayorte
man,
As The wild waves roar nightly on Lake
Michigan.
Like the leaves of the forest when sum
mcr is green,
That host with its banners, at sunset was
seen;
Like the leaves Of the forest when autumn
has blown,
That host on the morrow lay withered and
strown;
For the boomers Of Blaine spread their
wings on the blast,
And knocked out the props Of the foe as
they passed;
And the hopes of the hopers waxcd
deadly and chill,
And their bOoms but once heayed and
forever grew still.
Aud there lay the Sherman, his nostril
all wide,
And Benjamin Harrison, laid out in his
pride;
And Gresham. stretched, pale and white,
As cold as the spray of the rock.bcating
surf
And there lay Depew, so distorted and
pale,
With the damp on his brow, and the rust
on his rail-
And the others all silent, the banners
The speeches unspoken, the trumpets un-
blown,
Aud the boomers and boomers are loud in
their wall
And the idols are busted and offered for
sale,
And the booms of the routed, alosl all in
vain,
Hath melted like snow in the boom Of
the Blaine.

morning, as he slowly rubbed n neuralgia

"Ycs, sire" responded Daniel, with a
malarial querimoniousncss.
"Do you know that tits sharper than a
serpents tooth to have thankless child ?'
"Not personally, sire, but by observa-
ton"
Here, too, Daniel"
"Yes, sire"
"And, Daniel, do you know what it is
that turns an organ2"
"Yes, sire" replied the wondering
Daniel.
Then the President relapscd INTO pro-
longed, almost painful, silence.

lethafgy.

"stop my subscribton to the lEdshiag-

Private Secretary, in tone of re-

"Do as 1 bid, Daniel" said the Presi-
dent, sternly; "this is no time for monkey

and retired.

proach Of Decoration Day, when the

what His BEST Girl" Calls Him.

Some genius has figured out what a
young mans best girl calls him when his
back is turned as follows; Add four years
TO the date of BIRTH TO this add age to next
birthday, provided that birthday occurs
before Januaryal 1885, If not, use four
years at last birthday. Multiply tins sum
by 1000, and from the product subtract
657423. The figures will give the answer
sought. In reading them remember that
the figure / stands for the letter A; 2 for b,
and so on. Try IT, If any one has the
genius to explain why the'answer is the
same, no matter what theage employed let

WASHINGTON, MAY %, 1883.

IA CoNGBEss will act mt once on the
bill introduced in the House to-day
by Representative j. u. Richardson
If Tennessee, the chances are that
ground will be broken and the crcc-
tion Of the long-talked-of postoflice
building begin before the end Of the
year. The bill provides for the ap.
loinunent of commission to consist
Of the Postmaster-Genc the Sccre-
tafy Of the Interior, and the Super
vising Architect of the Treasury,
whose duty 1t shall be to select site
for the new building, which shall be
approved by the President. If the
commission select private property,
and the owners place an excessive
value thereon, tho commission have
ile right to enter proceedings in the
Supreme Court of the District for the
condemnation of such property. The
sum or 100000, or so much as may
lie needed, is to be appropriated for
the purchase of the property, and
100000 for the erection of the post
Office building. But if government
property is selected then the sum of
$500, 900 is 10 be appropriated for the
construction of the building. The
plans are to be approved by the COM
mission.

a LARGE MEETING Of Nationalists
was held at Limerick yesterday, at
least 10000 people being present, for
the purpose Of hearing speech from
William O'Biien on the Papal re-
script and the late manifesto of
Bishop ODwyer defending it. Mr..
O'Brien was unsparing in his denim
Citations Of the Bishop, and his senti-
ments were evidently these OF his au-
dience. The significant feature of the
occGsion was that none of the local
clergy were present to countenance
even in appearance this handed
revolt against the authority of the
Church,

faithfulness of his ministry and the

ships were many and his worth as a
citizen was universally recognized;
while in the church at large, in the
service of which ne had been dill
gently engaged for the last sixteen
years, he held eminent rank as pro-
found theologian, active and earnest
in all fields Of Christian effort and
conscientiously devoted to his paro-
chial and ministerial responsibilities.

TnE OLD STALwART element Of the
Republican party, which is deadly
hostile TO Blaine, is concentrating its
forces in favor of Judge Gresham.
If the Stalwarts can rally sufficient
opposition to prevent Blaine's nomi-
nation at Chicago, il will be but
repetition of what occurred at the
Republican Convention in 1880
when Grant and Blaine both had to
give way to dark horse-General
Garfield. If Blaine's friends can't
secure his nomination, of course, they
will not go for Gresham-except for
his scalp. And the same course will
be adopted by the Greshamites. On
the whole, it bids fair to be lively
scrimmage at the Republican Conven-
ton, with the chances in favor Of
General Alger, or some other person,
not now prominent candidate.

4, Mr.. Lo, the poor, Indian, has been
much written about, and yet, as sub
ject he is not exhausted. To Harper's
Magazine for August, 9. H. Farnham,
that veteran traveller through Canada,
has contributed an interesting article on
the Montagnais Indians, who live in the
neighborhood OF the Saguenay River.
The paper bounds in fresh information,
the domestic and wild life OF these Christ
ian red men is therein vigorously de.
scribed, and clew is furnished which
helps to explain why the Dominion Gov.
ernment has had 20 much less trouble
with its native wards than the United
States. The lines along which the ROM
an Catholic priests have been worked in
their efforts to bring the Indians out Of
their utterly barbarous state are also
clearly traced. Protestant missionaries
might profit considerably from a study
:, I these methods. Eleven excellent il
lus, 'rations accompany the article.
