THE MERRY CORPSE.

What a jolly life the corpse must lead
In the grave so calm and cool,
Scoring the tribes poor mortals need,
And plying the sage and fool!
Lying at rest on earth's fair breast
No battle of life to win;
Fate's stern behest is merry jest
And time only makes him grin.
What joy he finds when the rushing winds
Sing gleefully DER his head
But the damp, cold rain he never minds
What rare life lead the dead
His wants, though simple, he has at hand,
And all on the best of terms,
While the finest fare at his command
He serves to his guest, the worms
Careless of heart, and fancy free,
I'd give all have just corpse to be.

Mr.. BLAINE's letter the REaIsTER made
the following comment upon the dOcu-
meut:
1t is more than probable that there is q
quiet understanding among the Blaine
men on this side of the Atlantic. Ger
tainly they have not been working for
Mr. Blaine in the dark. They have not
undertaken the extensive organization OF
the party in his interest, without some
definite understanding with Mr.. Blaine
himself The character Of the man
is the key TO the situation. By
this declination trick he has chances of
winning over the minority OF his party
by making it believe that he has not
been seeking the presidency. = =
Mr.. Blaine is nothing II not cunning.
His letter will do him nothing but good.
Il will cement his friends and draw the
teeth Of his enemies. It will give him the
nomination by reclamation, and that is
clearly what the whole thing is an artful
bid for.
How does this agree with the situation
to-day, three months after the writing Of
the Florence Letter? Nearly all the Chi
cago delegates have been chosen and the
BLAINE agitation has gone merrily on In
spite of the letter of alleged declination
just as we predicted it would, and a. Mr..
BLAINE intended it should. Witness the
summary of the strength Of the various
candidates as made by the Philadelphia
Press, recognized organ of Mr.. BLAINE,
as it will show up on the first ballot at
Chicago:

It is settled thst.the first regiment Of
the State militia will encamp at Parkers-
burg for ten days. The soldier boys are
all reported in fine trim and present q very
warlike appearance. 1t is matter OF con-
graduation that the military spirit has
been 90 generally revived throughout the
State. The companies that have been
formed and mustered in reflect credit ON
the martial order and enthusiasm to the
young men Of West Virginia.
The Republican State Convention was
fruitful of incidents that indicate the SEN
timents of the party in this State. In re-
ferripg to the probable candidate for Presi-
dent, much applause was elected at the
mention of the names of Allison, Sherman,
Depew, Alger, Blaine and Others, but the
hearty and warm soul of the convention
was stirred when Mr.. Stafford said: at
may be that in its wisdom, its courage, its
integrity, that great Convention shall
select for the nominee of the greatest polit,
ical party of the earth for the highest polit-
ical ofica in the world, Archibald w.
Campbell, of West Virginia" There was
strong Campbell feeling throughout the
Convention. 1t will not be strange if q
tidal wave of rommon sense strikes the
Republican party and place A. w. Camp
bell at the head of the ticket.

the eountry's eyes to his well-laid scheme
and pose as an injured innocent who Is
thinking Of anything but politics.
The next we hear from this slick poll
tician will probably be modest and self
denying acceptance of the Chicago nom

that while he was in Italy he had really no

WELLsBURG, May 24.-The first discus
sion OF the fourth days work Of the Brooke
County Institute, plans of teaching frac
tions, opened by Mr.. Edwin Baxter, fol
lowed by Mr.. Kemp. Major Lee, Difficult
ties in teaching, plans for overcoming
them, etc. This discussion occupied much
time and vas valuable to inexperienced
teachers.
Miss Phister read q paper on School
Government, full of ideas that if carried
out would help each teacher to govern
without earning for himself the title o.
Birch Wielder.
How to teach writing was generally dis
cussed. illustrations on the board brought
ont the synthetic and analytic methods.
Superintendent Russell gave an intro
ductory talk on Physiology-the methods
of teaching and results to be desired. Mr.
]. Rodgers gave an illustration Of system
of drawing, using square with series o.
dots. Mrs. McKelvy gave some valuable
suggestions in paper o" Reading.
Superintendent Russell read q letter from
| l.. c. Miller, who was to have conducted
the institute, explaining that his absence
was caused by not being apprised Of his
appointment in time to make his arrange
ments. After music the institute adjourned
till p. NJ, when literary entertainment
will be held.

AS WE PREDICTED.

IT IL now q few days over three months
since Mr.. BLAINE wrote bis celebrated let
ter of deelination from Florence, and il is
about time to sum up results and verify OF
disproye predictions.
Did Mr.. BLAINE mean il? Most en-
physically no. Had he honestly wished
mot to have his name presented at Chicago
he would have said so in very few words.
What did he say? His only specific state
ment to Chairman JONES was: 81 wish
through yopto state to the members Of the
Republican party that my name will not
be presented to the National Convention
called to assemble in Chicago in June next
for the nomination Of candidates for Presi-
dent and Vice President Of the United
States" The rest Of the letter might have
been q stump speech. 1t was in fact bid
for denomination by reclamation.
Very few in his own party believed him
sincere.
Since then he has been seen Q number Of
times by correspondents and others from
this side, has been sent q number Of in
quiriss, in regard to his position. To all,
he has steadily refused to say yes, or no.
He VM not give plain, frank answer. He
minces words with the correspondents and
gEbly refuses to be definite. Word fencing
Is BLAINE's forte.
Will he give definite reply before the
assembling Of the Chicago Convention ?
There Is no reason in the world to suppose
he win. His Is one Of the most experienced
and astuts politicians and knows when and
how to play his cards. The situation is no
doubt Just what he foresaw and hoped it
would be.
