A FIZZLE,

The Democrats of Poultney made
desperate attempt to have big
powwow on Thursday evening. They
got out posters and sent them to
neighboring towns, announcing the
speaker, a Mr.. Graham of Salem, N.
T., and grand torch light process
sion. Next they borrowed all the
torches that the Poultney Republi-
can club had, and even sent out of
town for more for fear that they
should not have enough; but alas !
their fond hopes were blasted, for
only about 80 appeared in the pro-
cession and many of those we're BOYS.

Speaking Of the Princess of Wakes
Lc Figaro, Of Paris, remarks. Her friends
say that often as night falls, in the large
hall OF Sandringham, she remains fol
hours watching the Goals reddening in the
immense fireplace; she does not see what
passes around her; she listens to nothing
that is said to her, neither the calling Of
the Princess Maud, nor the jokes Of Prince
Albert. Her highness sleeps" say her
attendants. They deceive themselves.
Her highness meditates on the little
Alexandra, who believed herself destined
to marry petty German prince, very
domestic, very faithful, and who would
have died very happy after having had
many children. -Foreign Letter.

WEAVING.

Yes, I'm a weaver, and each day
The threads of live | spin;
And be the colors what they may
still must weave them In.
With morning light there comes tn
thought,
As my task begin
My Lord TO me new threads has brought
And bids me ''weave them in."
Sometimes he gives me threads of gold,
To brighten up the day;
Then somber tlnts, so bleak and cold,
That change the gold to gray,
His love, alas | oft forget
When these dark threads | spin,
That cause me grief and pain but yet
He bids me ''weave them IN"
And so my shuttle swiftly flies,
With threads both gold and gray;
And on | toll till daylight dies,
And fades in night away.
oh, when my day of toll is DER,
And shall cease to spin;
He'll open wide my Fathers door,
And bid me rest within.
There safe at home in heavenly light,
How clearly shall see
That every thread, the dark, the bright,
Eaeh ona had panl to ha

HONESTY IN POLITICS.

President Cleveland reports to
the people that the tax system OF
this country produces one hun
dred million dollars "a year more
than the Government needs to
pay it's debt and all Legitimate ex'
penses.
The Republican Senate, news
papers and orators, all agree that
this is true.
Cleveland asks the people to
reduce this taxation on themselves
by taking the taxes of necessi-
ties, such as clothing, salt, &c.
Isn't it strange that auy portion
of the people should in any way
oppose this reduction of taxes
upon themselves !
isn't it even stranger that the
people should exhibit even a care
lessness about voting to endorse
an officer that so proposes to re.
duce unnecessary taxation
Suppose that the County Judge
aud Magistrates of Fulton county
should issue an address to the
people of this county citing the
proof that a SO poll tax was pro-
ducing more money than the coun-
ty needed, and that II poll tax
was all that was needed, how many
citizens, white or black, would
vote to continue the go taxi And
yet, President Cleveland presents
exactly this similar proposition to
the people of the United States.
The Republican party opposes this
plain proposition, on the grounds
that the reduction OF taxes will,
in some mysterious way, injure
the industries of the country.
Against this Republican idea the
Democrats ask the simple, plain
question. how can any man. poor
or rich, be injured, by reducing bis
taxesi

their leaders now only expect
from 5000 10 l0,000 majority. The
Democrats can scarcely hope TO
carry the State, but it is wonder.
ful how the Republican majority
has dwindled.
Senator Sherman, the ablest of
the Republican leaders, ii is reli.
ably reported, now admits that
the Democrats will carry Indiana,
but ne asserts that Harrison will
be elected.
The real truth is that the result
of the election depends npon New
York and Indiana. Most people
believe that New York viii decide
the election.
California is hardly q doubtful
State, aud neither is New Jersey.
Both are reasonably certain for
Cleveland.
Michigan q few years ago was
certain to give the Republican
nominee 10000 majority. but now

between Cleveland and Harrison.
