With feeble glass, whose utmost sweeps
Scarce reach thy verge, Infinite deeps

lie struts his hour, with line and plummct
To pierce Earth's depths, or scale its summit
| Or, winged with keel and fav'rng breeze,
| Essays to cleaye Its hidden seas.
Or, armed with prism, lens, and Jars,
| Resolves the gases of the stars
| Then boasts he's told to human ears
| The last dread secrets of the spheres,
| For speech he tunes some mystic wire,
| And steals from storms their tongues of fire,
| For whispering arch, the sky's payilions;
| For audience, halls the mighty Millions
Or yokes the lightning to his car,
| And HES from earth TO sun and star,
| Joins the wild comet in its chase,
And curbs his steed to keep In pace.
And onward through supcrnal heights
Where seraphs stay their yent'rous flights,
And veil, behind retreatng wings,
In presence of the King of kings.
At lights insunerable source,
At awful fount of primal force,
Az the dread spring Of Beings cause
Whose anyils forge the Law for laws,
And whence, upon the trackless space,
God maps for worlds their tracks and place;
Then from his hand filings, one by one,

Assume tn Almighty's blazing seat,
And spurn the God beneath their feet.

Ne'cr reached the foot. hills of the plain,
Whose heights, beyond, unpierced remain
The treasure.house, the fields untrod,
Unrifl'd mysteries of God
Your keel ne'er reached the border waves,
Your line ne'er fathomed oceans caves.
Though shaved by Natures primal force,
Which launched the worlds and marked their
course,
You no more scan the vlewless cause,
Whence flow the deeps of lawless laws,
Than you can touch the springs that start,
The awful clock beat of the heart
You garb In light and feed on air.
But know not whence, or why, or where,
The life-spark comes, TO warm the clod
Which, dust without, but with--is God

The Germans in America.


Perhaps the following lines, written by n
German-American, may not be considered
as an untimely undertaking BY the Scr
man element" of the American people
those inhabitants Of the United States are
meant, who were born in Germany and
speak German as their mother tongue. On
the whole, the Germans in America are
law-abiding, withdrawing, and industrious
people, who largely help to develop the
resources and to promote the prosperity Of
this country. They speak German among
them selves, because it is their vernacular,
and easiest to them, but they also learn
English as well and fast as possible. The
German nation in Europe, from which they
have come, is no more responsible for the
diversity Of languages than the English
nation, whose tongue is and forever
will be the legal language of this coun-
try. Moreover, the German nation from
which they have come is morally, socially,
and Intellectually as highly civilized and
educated, and has as rich and noble litera-
ture rs any other nation In the world.
Aside from our own American nation, the
English, French, and German nations of
Europe stand abreast in the front rank of
civilization. From this fact it will be seen
that the Germans of this country, having
received good schoolliS In Ger
many, are as Intelligent men as
any other class of citizens. The ma
iority of them are skilled mechanics or
practical farmers, and do not exhibit great
anxiety of filling public offices. Yet they
are as patriotic and as faithful in the per-
formance of their public duties as their
Anglo-American fellow-ctizens, and have
chiefly proved this by their large represent
alton In the Union army during our Amcri-
can civil war
Many Germans In America are frecthink
ers and oppose Sunday laws as violating
the constitution of the United States and as
promoting bigotry in this country.
Many Germans in America decently and
sensibly drink wine and beer, particularly
on festive occasions They oppose prohibitory
laws as violating the principles contained in
the Declaration of Independence Of the
United States and as not being in harmony
with common sense.
The Germans of this country think that
life has not only business side, but also a
social side, deserving to be cultivated This
is the reason for the numerous German
shooting societies (Schuetzcnvereine), Ger
man gymnastic societies (Turnvereine), and
German vocal societies (Gesangvereine) in
the United States.
AS to song, as n social enjoyment, Gott-
fried Seume, q famous German author, says
"Wo man, singt, .da lass e.
Dich ruhig neider,
Boese Menschen haben
Keine Lieder."
Translated these lines read:
Where'er they sing, tranquil
Canst thou remain,
For wicked men attempt
to sing In vain,

determined to 90 with Walter, but President
lIewctt put his foot down on the plan, and
viii not allow him to leave home until he
has fully recovered his health and past all
dangers Of u relapse.
The failure Of the boys TO hit Krock was
disappointment, for Il was thought that
they would at least be able TO "Rill" his
straight swift pitching, but the northwest
ern phenomenon was puzzlcr TO all except
Hoy, who sized him up FOR a single and a
home run.
Ted Sullivan is much delighted with the
material Of his Troians. Pat Dealcy Is
playing wonderful game behind the bat,
and in young Wright aud Pete Sweeney he
thinks he has the making of second Sny-
der and Denny after they have been
hardened by season Of steady work in the
minor lcaglih.
In the League contest Chicago has taken
the lead from Boston, through the latter's
defeats at Detroit and pittsburg, but the
advantage Is very slight Philadelphia has
displaced Pittsburg and now holds fifth
place. Washington Is again at home at the
foot Of the list

Sound Sense from Friendly Enemy
New York SUM-


Our esteemed Democratic contemporary,
the Buffalo Courier, hits the nail exactly on
the head in the subjoined remark
The men who are responsible for the fact
that Mr.. Blaine's Florence letter Is not ac.
cepted as final, so far as the presidential
nomination is concerned, are Mr.. Blaino's
special friends.
This is perfectly true, and the reason for
it evident. The Blaine men are bound to
run the Republican National Convention to
suit themselves, and they use the name of
their hero to get the power. As far as we
have observed, this elegant device seems TO
work like a charm.
But for all that let nobody be sure that
Blaine is going to be the candidate of that
convention. 1t will be quite time to adopt
that view of the subject when he has been
nominated and has accepted.
II he should accept, the act will sink him
deeper than ever plummet sounded, while,
If he refuses and comes home to stump the
country for Gresham or Harrison or Allison
or Depew or Sherman, he will be a far
bigger man than the candidate, and his
power, over the grand old party win be
boundless indeed.
The men who propose to sell Brother
Blaine for fool will probably find them
s!lyes in trouble when settling day comes,

the brave Gen. Salanson, who distinguished
himself In the Franco-Prussian war.
NJ. Salanson Is too young to have much
of a notcworty history. lie is an advocate
by profession and licensed to practice at the
bar. But prcferring the diplomatic service
he stood civil service examination, passed,
and was commissioned as secretary Of lega-
tion TO Santiago, Chill, in 1886, where he
served one year. In July, 1887, he was
transferred to this city as third secretary of
legation, where he has been doing duty ever
since.
tits quite probable that Mr.. and Mrs.
Salanson will not return to this country,
both being anxious to reside in France,
where most of their youth and school days
were passed But that will depend upon
what the French minister of foreign affairs
may have to say in the matter.
