THE MAYFLOWER.

With baby breath and baby flush,
The hrstling of the year,
Baptized 10 glory from the skies,
Is born our Epigaa.
Pink as the hues OF morning are,
Pure as the early dew,
Fresh as the faith I'm earthly love
That happy childhood Knew.
Our blushing flower, our woodland pet,
Pressed close to earths fond breast,
Then passed from loving hand TO hand,
Like babies newly dressed.
o darlings, hiding in the woods,
We've learned your shy, soft ways,
And tracked your sweet trail In the leaves,
Faithful through all the Mays.
Sweet little kinsfolk, 10 our lives
Your tenderer life appeals,
Stirs the deep current Of our thoughts,
And hidden grace reveals.
That Power which through the wlntry storm,
Keeps such surprise In store,
Midst life 3 thick fallen leaves may find
SlOries undTeamed before.

WASHINGTON, MAY 8, 1888.
RIyEK Am uAnnoR uoARD.

"The Forum" for May contains an
article by Senator Cullom on "Appro-
priatious for Public Works." in
which he points out the disad-
vantagcs and evils of the methods
that now prevail in Congress and
strongly advocates the creation of
some permanent agency or organiza-
ton for "the special purpose OF SUI
pervising and executing all public
works on rivers and harbors."
Mr.. Cullom considers it immaterial
whether this board be composed of
military or civil engineers, or both.
The main thing is TO place one of the
most important interests of the coun-
try, bearing on its commercial well
fare, in charge of some competent adj
ministratiye body, that will be able
10 proceed 10 its work independently
and uncmbarrassed.
The Senator says, and says truly,
that under existing conditions the
River and Harbor bill is necessarily
made up in 'desultory and haphaz-
ard manner;" no "fxed or definite
policy" can be pursued, because of
frequent changes In the membership,
and, of course, in the views of the
committee; "the uncertain and irreg-
ular manner" in which appropria-
items are made results in criminal
wastefulness;" instead of making
the entire amount required to COM
plete an improvement which is un-
dertaken available at the outset, or at
fixed intervals as the work progresses,
these appropriations are usually do!ed
ont i'll driblets, and often in such
way that the cost is largely and un-
necessarily increased;" and what is
quite as serious, local and sectional
influences are sure to predominant in
determining the composition of the
bill, and must continue to do so until
a radical change is effected"
The changes suggested would take
the work of investigation, selection
and supervision out of the hands of
Congress, leaving the latter only to
pass upon the estimates and recon-
niNilhdIlpho VI ~ pOdlp lHit III bhC
nature of things would be non-sec-
tional and uninfuenced by political
considerations in shaping its action.
Mr., Cullom is inclined to regard the
best European system, that of Prus-
sia, which is distinctively civil in its
organization, having high standards
of qualification for membership and
powers so well distributed as TO cover
every part of the Empire and keep
careful note of all needed improve
ments, the plans and estimates of
these being submitted annually to the
legis' ative authorities by the Minister
of the Board of Public Works.
There are bills pending in Congress
looking to the establishment of u
similar bureau here, and legislation in
this direction, if well matured and
properly guarded, would no doubt
prove efiicacious and popular, reliev-
ing Congress in a great measure of
one of its heaviest and least agreeable
burdens, and enabling the Govern
ment to carry on its public improve
ments with greater economy of time,
trouble and expenditure than ever be-
fore,

The SENATE CAN DO as much talking
with as little practical result as any
legislative body on record, but it can
vindicate itself by the discharge Of
business with unexampled rapidity.
Yesterday afternoon Senator Sherman
mildly insinuated that the Senate had
not accomplished much business in
the last fortnight, and almost before
the Ohio statesman could take his seat
the Senate turned in and passed one
hundred and five pension bills, nine
public building bills, and variety of
other measures.
