rmr YEAR or GRACE.

Last year the roses bloOmel 50 rcd,
As red as lire, us life-blood dear,
SO red II never could be right
The boding heart within me said.
They are 50 red, they must bo white
Next year."
Last year there was such waste Of gold.
The yellow flowers grew so near
The meadow green could scarcely show;
You gathered more than You could hold;
But spring came silver white with snow
This year.
Now you may watch the pale moon rise,
And may see the sunsets drear.
All green's look grayor than before:
or do we see with other eyes,
And not together any more

THE uN1oUgNEss of proceedings at
the Willard Hall Convention yester-
day would have been heightened by
the distribution of a few thousand
copies of Senator Shermans late
speech, or the reception Of an inspir-
ing cablegram on the tariff from
James G.. Blaine.

IF THERE Is TO DE an investigation
by Congress into the causes of delay
in the progress of the new Library
Building, pray let us have it during
this inclement weather, when nothing
else can be done. These cold winter
days and nights lHill answer admira-
bly, for judicial researches into the
relative merits of Portland and Ger
man cements, but when the leaves
begin to bud and the birds begin to
sing, we want to hear the music Of
the trowel again. Whatever the de-
lay may be owing to, the Senate
should be very careful not TO pro-
loup IL.

WE WERE IN HOPES that with the
advent of new postmaster for Wash
ington new postoflice building would
be ready for his reception, but that
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS consummation
seems if anything more remote than
ever. About all we hear on the SUBJ
ject is that instead of having new
building, the lease of another old
building is contemplated. Is there
no way Of breaking up this long pro-
tracted monotony of do-nothingness E?
Mr.. Ross, it appears, is warmly in
favor of new building at the earliest
practicable day, and will do whatever
he can towards securing the necessary
legislation. We trust he will succee d
in solving the problem.
