THE CAMP FIRE.
Tho Ride From Winchester as Mar
rated by the Poet Read.


Up from the south at break of day,
Bringing TO Winchester fresh disiDsy,
The sffrighted air with a shudder bore,
Ths terrible grumble, and rumble, and roar,
Telling the battle was on once mora g.
Ane Sheridan twenty miles away.
And wider still thosc pillows OF war
Thundered along the horizons bar,
And louder yet into Winchester rolled
The roar Of that red sea uncontrolled,
Making the blood of the listener cold
AS he thought OF the stake in that fiery
fray,
With Sheridan twenty miles away.
But there's a road from Winchester town,
A good, broad highway leading down;
And there, thro' the flash of the morning
A steed as black as the steeds Of night
Was seen to pass as with eagle flight
As II he knew the terrible need,
He stretched away with the utmost speed
Hills rose and fell-but his heart was gay.
With Sheridan fifteen miles away.
Under his spurning feet the road
Like an arrowy Alpine river flowed,
And the landscape flowed away behind,
Like an ocean flying before the wind;
And the steed, like bark fed with fur
mace ire,
swept on with Els wild eyes full OF hre!
But 10 he Is nearing his hearts desire,
He is snuffing the smoke Of the roaring
fray,
With sheridan only five miles away.
The first that the general saw were the
groups
OF stragglers, and then the rctreating troops;
What was done-what to dO-a glance told
him both.
And, striking his spurs, with terrible oath
He dashed down the lines mid u storm Of
hurrahs
And the wave Of retreat checked its course
there because
The sight of the master compelled it to
pause.
With foam and with dust the black charger
was gray;
By the flash Of his eye and his nostrirs
play
He seemed to the whole great army to say:
al have brought on Sheridan all the way
From Winchester town to save the dayw
Hurrah hurrah for Sheridan!
Hurrah hurrah for horse and man!
And when their statues are placed on high,
Under the dome of the union sky
The American soldiers temple of fame
There with the generals glorious name,
BE 1t said, IN letters both bold and bright:
Here is the stecd that saved the day
BY carrying Sheridan into the hight
From Winchester. twenty miles awayv'

The Democratic Party and COlored Men.


What has the Democratic party, North
or South, ever done for the negro? What
solitary right has he that he does not owe
directly to the Republican party? What
right has he that the Democratic party
did not oppose the granting by every
means within its power? The South de-
manded that the Republican party should
let the institution of slavery alone. and
because Northern Republicans denied the
right of one man to buy and sell the
body of another, plunged the Nation into
war. Many Northern Democrats. loyal

The Cost or NapOieOn's Greafcoats.


OF all the historical garments which
crowd the great museums of the world
none are more famous than the "gray
overcoat' and "chapeau" of Napoleon
l., celebrated in Beranger's and Raj
fet's poems and painted by scores of
aspiring French artists. At recent
search through the archives of the times
of the great conqueror the tailor's and
hatter's account for some of these
articles of clothing has been found,
and it appears that each OF his "cha,
peaux castor" he paid 60f. while his
"redingotes CRISES" cost him 160f.
The overcorts were always made wide,

GERS of that period, Napoleon never

SUPERIOR COURT.
nrroRE JUDGE RoNNEY.


THURsDAY.-WestonF f. Milliken VS.. Frederick
A. Salvesen. This is an action to recover dam
ages sustained by reason OF the Te1usai py the
master of a vessel to sign bills of lading.
Feb. 22d, 1887, the defendant master OF the
Norwegian bark "Brodrene" executed a charter
party at Buenos Ayres with Thomas Drysdale ~
Co., whose agents were James 4. Ward q CO., OF
New York, to carry cargo OF lumber from Poet
the cargo about 575, 900 feet, of w. f. Milliken,
to whom they ordered Capt. Salvesen to apply.
The charter party contains this clause ~ IS
agreed that 10000 feet per running day tSundayS
excepted) shall be allowed for loading the vessel
Capt Salyesen arrived in the port Of Portland
and notified Ward e. Co. and Mr.. Milliken that he
would be ready TO load May 18th. He was not
given berth until the 18th, and commenced 10
the night Of June 18th, and bills Of lading were
prepared and presented to Capt. Salyesen TO sign.
This he refused to do except with TIE mdorse
ment, "Signed under protest, claiming two days
demurrage, as per charter party" Milliken re-
fused to pay demurrage and claimed clean DIS
of lading. Capt. SalVesen claimed that his lay
days expired ON the 18th; that there were many
that the two days delay was caused by the ne
elect of the plaintiff. Thereupen Mr. Milliken
brought this suit and had the captain arrested.
Subsequently, Mr.. Milliken paid the demurrage
and the captain was released from jail.
Mr.. Mliken claims that the master was not de-
layed in the loading Of the vessel by want OF lum
Der; that he did wait several days at different
times, to get lumber Of difereut dimensions than
plaintiff then had there, that would stow better,
but that was purely matter Of convenience OF
the captain.
The case was tried by the court without jury,
and decision reserved.

HOW MEN DIE.

If we know all the methods of approach adopt
ed by an enemy we are the better enabled to ward
off the danger and postpone the moment when
surrender becomes inevitable. In many instances
the inherent strength of the body sufhces to ena-
BILE it to oppos the tendency toward death. Many
however, have lost these forces to such an extent
that there is little or no help. In other cases,
little aid to the weakened Lungs will make all
the difference between sudden death and many
years of useful life. Upon the first symptoms of
Cough, Cold, or any trouble OF the Throat or
Lungs, give that old and well known remedy
Boschees German Syrup, a careful trial. 1t will
prove, what thousands say of it, to be the"bene-
factor of any home" nov1-d1ycT
