Her touch was torment in my pain:
II troze my heart. benumbad my soul,
And crazed my brain.
At last, her duty all fulfilled.
She turned with cheerful case away.
Yet would have fingered, had | willed
That she should stay.
And lol there knelt, whore she had stood

She said no word she only turned

REPENTANCE AFTER DEFEAT.

which were written at Georgetown and
both Of which related to phases in thepol

TRADE REVIEW.

Dun's Report Makes . Good Showing of
Business for the First Half Year.
New YORK, June 30-R. G. Dun & Co. in
their review Of trade say: 1.-The half year
closes with y volume Of business at this
last year, but larger than that Of previous
years. The general complaint that busl-
ness is dull means that the reaction from
the greater activity Of q year ago, and
from the confident expectations Of last
winter is more keenly felt. To very many
traders who bought largely in their over
confidence, the shrlnkage brings serious
losses or actual embarrassment, and to this
cause is mainly due the increase noted dur
ing recent months in the number OF
failure. For the past quarter failures num-
Der 2,24l in the United States, against
1.9O5 for the same quarter last year and in
Canada 343 against 3la In amount Of liza
bilities there is also an increase in the
United States Of $50 2sa9, $50 against 81 sc.
$50 last year, but n decrease in Canada OF
e, Isl ,694 against s., 3O7, $50 last year.
''The report of failures for the half year
ending June 30 is more favorable than the
statement for the last quarter, showing
but q slight increase in number in the
nitude of liabilities in Canada as follows:
United States, 1885, first half, failures
S, 1s9, liabilities s65,1lal5a canada, fail
ures ST., liabilities 81 So, 422; 1887, first

tiles SO, 693,Oi5''

committee, its too frequent exercise Is
fraught It says: ''Since May 8. 1856. 1876

the President to examine the immense
mass Of documentary evidence upon which
each case depends and which Is invariably
examined by the committee, and it follows
that when he disagrees with Congress

Judgment must be based, not upon the
reports of the committee, in which the
facts are always stated with sufficient
fuliness, but upon tho report OF some
subordinate in the Bureau OF Pensions.

reversed, is thus enabled to review the
