THE sLEEPERs.

Fanny Forester in Chambers Journal.
Behold them slumbering side by side,
Fair smiling youth and hoary age;
One dreams of worldly pomp and pride,
Where men goddess warfare wage;
The other dreams of Summer bowers,
Bright sunshine, warbling birds and flowers.
One brow is marked with lines of care,
Which shows the world-worn spirit grieves;
The other CLEANS meath clustering hair
Like fair star through quiyering leaves.
One heart is grasping, proud and cold;
The other generous, warm and bold
One breathes long, weary sigh,
And dreams ofearthly gain or loss,
As with keen, suspicious eye,
He counts once more his gliuering dross;
The other bounds with joyous tread
Ger fields of fclover white and red.
groan escapes the old mans lips,
groan of mingled rage and pain,
For, loi his schemes, like phantom ships,
Have vanished meath the treaoherous main.
Hestretches forth one wrinkled hand
To find his treasured hoard but sand.
From parted lips Of tender bloom
A trill of merry laughter steals,
Whose fairy music fills the room,
The happy boy in dreamlnnd kneelS
Above little crystal stream,
Where rushes wave and pebbles CLEAN;
And he beholds with sparkling eyes
His ship-a water lily-glide
Beneath the rosy y-tinted skies.
Right bravely down the dimpling tide.
His bark no sordid hopes doth bear.
But dances on he cares not where.
Hark! now the dreaming wording speaks,
'The path to wealth, how drear, how long,
"Ahl" cries the boy, with glowing cheeks,
"How lovely is the skylark's song,
High soaring mid the blue above,
Forever singing. God is love!'"
And when the morning sun shall rise
To charm away the mists fnight
The boy will greet with gladdened eyes
A world of beauty bathed in light,
For topd mothers morning kiss
VIII ope its golden gates of bliss.
But the poor worldling, what of him?
VIII he not seek the busy mart,
Like some gaunt spectre, stern and grim
No Joy within his withered heart?
For life is empty, vain and cold
To him who only seeketh gold

ANSWERING MIR. coRBlN.
A Statement by Secretary CahiIl on the
 Other Side of the Question.

A Statement Dy SeCreLary Cahtll on the
 Other Side of the Question.
 PHILADELPHIA, Jan. A.-Secretary Cahill, of the executive committee of the Philadel- phia and Reading Railroad Employees con- vention, has prepared reply to President Corbins statement explaining the position of the striking and discharged train hands, Mir. Cahill says the first strike, which is not the present strike, had its inception at Elizabeth port, N J., and then he reviews the trouble at that point and subsequent events at Port Richmond. Reference is made to the confer ence of Chairman Lee with Superintendent Sweigard, and it is stated that "seven men are prepared to testify that the general super intendent agreed to arbitrate the other differ ences, and also to restore their places to all men who had quit work except the five crews and Ambrose Hede and B. J. Sharkey" "This strike," Mr. Cahill concludes, 'sis not to sustain the discharged crews at Port Rich mond but it is to Ill aintain cur organization and to sustain men who have been true to principle. In this strike we expect to win"
 The publication of Mr. Corbin, indicating, as it does, that the company will make no compromise, has caused feeling of despon- dency in the mining town. The merchants refuse to grant further credit to the idle men, and already many of the families are begin ming to feel the bangs of hunger, as the relief afforded them is not sufficient to provide for all their needs. It now looks as though the men would be starved into submission.
