From the scenes we hold so dear;
Still we eagerly look forward,
To the future drawing near
Life is sweetest in its morning.

With our watchword, EssayeZ,
We, in youth, will win our way.
God protect us, now and ever!

Firm. united friend to friend.
Though today the parting saddens,
Lei us Sing with heartfelt cheer,
Fare the well, our classmates dear.

Is a q natural consequence of hemorrhage. The

which he undergoes all necessary treatment
are SO absolute that it materially assists the

IN WINTER NIGHT.

We walk IN the winter wind tonight;
Our hearts have wings, our feet are light;
The stars Of home In our breasts arise
The windowstars shine into our eyes.
Tie gasights stoOp and fare In the wind:
The lying snow makes the long street blind;
our faces warm with hreside glow
our iirelights dance at home, we know,
llark 20 the feet that past us move,
Echoes Of hapless hearts above
Faces come cleaning into our own
And vanish; we hear the feet alone.
No glamor Of freight, sweet and warm,
Defends these walkers in the storm;
In winter wind through icy street
Ahi hopeless hearts, ah, homeless feet

lie stated almost as much in the
Senate Chamber yesterday, when he
spoke of the question Of an eXposi-
ton 'to be held here or elsewhere, "
US one to be approached very
carefully.
II is Il grave question, in Mr.. lIale's
mind, whether Washington, of all
other places, is sufficiently "the seat
Of art, or science, or labor, or manu-
factures Of any FORM" to justify its
selection for the purpose outlined in
the Quadricentennial project. But is
il not possible that the Senator from
Maine mistakes to some extent the
real nature and object Of this enter.
prise?
The proposition differs from any
thing of the same name that has ever
been undertaken in this country, in
being divested of local or sectional
character. 1t was to avoid all appear
ance of this sort that the Board OF
Promotion decided upon Washington
as the proper location, rather than
New York, Chicago or st. Louis, Sc
that it might not be antagonized as a
scheme to 'boom" either of these
great cities or any other. This is
peculiarly neutral ground, where all
parts of the country can be repre-.
sented, without conflict or jealousy, in
AN exposition of their products and
resources and progress.
Washington was selected, not upon
ANY claim that the National Capital is
the seat of artNor manufactures, oi
labor, but the seat Of government, t.
which the interests involved naturally
and properly converge; and for the
further reason that the Government
has already here, as the nucleus Of an
exposition, exhibits of more value ant
extent than those ofah other cities o.
the Union many times combined.
There is no one city, moreover, tina
can really be considered the seat
par excellence of art and science ant
manufactures. New York is the seal
of vast commerce, Philadelphia th,
seat of enormous industries, BostoI
the seat Of science, and so on, bu
none possesses in so great degree q
Washington the essentials of associa
ton that point to the National Capita
as the proper place for permanen
display of all that enters into tn
formation of continents materia

We are inclined to think that whei
Mr.. Hale comes TO understand tina
the proposed Exposition is not in tn
nature Of mere trade exhibit O
produce exchange, run on the lines @
an ordinary agricultural fair, he wi
discard his present bias against El
positions in general, and Washingto
in particular, and enroll himse
among the ardent friends and SUI
porters of what is destined to be til

Arose and said he'd like TO state
That he himself, at least for one,
Did not approve of Washington
AS fit for those Centennial shows,
Which many people now propose
Because her science, art and mills
Are not enough TO fill the bills;
Oh, Hale What are you giving us?
Why do you want to raise fuss
Your hints, dear sir, are all III vain,
You cannot take the show TO Maine;
Your Science there is something grand,
TO wit: to make that rockribbed land
Produce enough of grain and hay
To furnish cash to get away;
Your Art something, too, we think,
Grown great on how to get drink;
And all your mills, industrious hum
In grinding out fine chewing gum;
And though the sheep on all your hills
Are forced to wear their cast-steel bills
To pick the grass, some farmers son
Had planted with smooth-bore gun;
And ice and snow and pine tree chips
Make up the commerce of your ships;
We tell you, Hale, in spite of these,
You never may eXpectto freeze
On to our great Centennial show,
And take it oil to Maine, you know,
Because the people want 1t done
In honor of onr Washington
