Night and Hsme.

1t is night now: and here is home.
Gathered under the quiet roof elders
and children lie alike at rest. In the
midst of a great peace and calm the
stars look out from the heavens. The
silence is peopled with the past: sor-
rowful nor for sins and short
comings-meInories of passionate joys
and griefs rise out Of their graves,
both now alike calm and sad. Eyes,
as l shut mine, look at me, that have
long ceased to shine. The town and
fair landscape sleep under the star
light wreathed in autumn mlsts'
Twinkling among the houses a light
keeps watch here and there in what
may be a sick chamber or two. 1h'
clock tolls sweetly in the silent air
Here is night and rest. An awfu
sense of thanks makes the heart swell
and the head bow as | pass to M
room through the sleeping house, ant
feel as though u hnshea blessing wa
upon it -Thdcheray.

The Gayarre Committee.

As the pioneer of the New Orleans
press in moving for justice to the his
torian,. Hon. Charles Gayarre, the
Chronicle notes with deep satisfaction
the unsnimity of the press and the vi
gor with which the matter is being
forwarded.
Among the first to respond to the
patriotic appeal were the noble ladies
who formed a committee, presided ov-
er by Mrs. Eugene Soniat, and to them
the popularity of the effort is largely
due.
1t is gratifying to know that since
the espor,sal Of his cause by the Chron-
icle a Gayarre Place has been created
as a pleasant reminder to passing citi-
zens of E.splanade street; also that a
handsome portrait has beer painted
which is to be placed in the Capitol
building of the State with appropriate
addresses Ivy Cows. McEnery and Nj.
cholls.
These things are cheering to the We.
nerable historian. but it should no
be forgotten hat he has materia
wants to be provided for, and his las
days among us should net be enbit
tered by a constant battle with power
ty and sacrifice beyond the power o
words to rightly describe. 1t reall,
seems as if the day could not be ia
distant when complete success vii
crown the efforts of the friends G

The trouble to-day in the labor
movement is that the leaders are
ignorant of what is the right
method to insure success. Con.
.ssquently there is confusion. The
rank and file of organized labor
have become discouraged at the
numerous failures under the lead
ership of incompetents.
