governor. Goaded on by the absolute GER
tainty of defeat without the cid of his
name on the ticket, the party managers
have grasped with the desperation OF
drowning men at the hope OF securing
from him a reconsideration of his purpose
not to be a candidate. Catching at this
straw of hope the machine postponed the
convention to a date so late as TO incur the
disapproval OF the vast majority OF the
party in the endeavor to secure from Mr..
Porter a recantation of his withdrawal.
But all the artfully laid plans went amiss,
and the republican party goes into the
race deprived Of the aid OF that name on
the ticket, which many have declared was
necessary to success. The conduct of the
Porter boom has been peculiar. While
in his every public utterance he
has declared himself not a candi.
date. those supposed to be in his con.
idence have stoutly maintained that
Gov. Porter would yet be a candidate.
Another element which has been endeav.
oring to secure the nomination of the ex-
governor has been the following Of Gen.
Harrison which has urged that Porter
must be the nominee to order to secure 10
Mr.. Harrison the vote Of his own state
This latter element has of late been the

been afraid"
HE likes you too we'll TO stay-that is
the truth, Nora; he is afraid of himself"
Nora did not speak; she was greatly
agitated and could scarcely conceal her
emotion.
HE has gone to America for a time"
said Lady Barbara, considerably. "When
he comes back the first bitterness of this
unhappy affair win be over. My dear,
be was wise to CO."
Still Nora did not speak; she was be-
ginning TO understand now what Biddulph
had meant when he had asked to kiss her
Tor the last time" when they parted at
Rossmore.
"He looks changed and ILL.," continued
Lady Barbara, who was woman enough to
know that Nora would rather hear this
than that, under the circumstances he
seemed well and happy. 1.-THE change
will do him good. All this has cut him to
the heart"
"And-he left no letter, no message p"
Eyes, he sent a message, and he no
doubt will write to you. l was to tell you
he was going away because he had not
strength to stay"
81 think he might have told me
Vile, cealu -NOIsi, Will bOulc DudlL
we 60 downstairs again now, Lady Bar
bara? think Minnie will feel dull if we
stay here"
But later in the day when she received
Biddulph's letter, all her pride and her
little feeling of anger melted away. She
could not mistake the tone of the words
he had penned with such a sore and ach-
ing heart. He loved her too well, then,
to forget the "brief days of Joy" and pas
sionate despair" that she had been pre-
pared 10 ignore, TO bury with the sweet
dreams and dead hopes which then had
ended.
She kissed his letter again and again,
and laid it against her breast as if it were
some living thing. Sweet words that
told her he was thinking of her then, and
would think of her when he was far
away. This love of theirs at least was
strong and deep and true, and, like gold,
would bear the cruel crucible of absence
and time. Nora stood there thinking Of
Biddulph, seeing him with that strange
mental vision OF ours which beholds feat
ures that are not present-the glance, the
smile, that memory re pictures on our
brain. She knew his face so well-the
grey eyes that softened when he looked
at her, that grew tender when he listened
to her words.
"My DEAR" she said softly, 81 know
you will not forget me; my soul is too
near akin to yours for US to change"

The value of Longevity.

[Dr. Felix L. Oswald in the August Forum.l
Can there be q donbt that Burns and Keats
foresaw the issue of their struggle against big
otry, or that Cervantes, in the gloom of his
misery, could read the signs of the dawn pre-
saying a sunburst of posthumous fame? Spin
OLA and Schiller died at the threshold Of their
goal; Pascal, Harvey, Macaulay, Buckle and
Bichat left their inimitable works half finished;
Raphael, Mozart and Byron died atthe verge of
a summit which, perhaps no other foot shall
ever approach. Who knows how often, since
the dawn OF modern science, the chill Of death
has palsied hand that had all but lifted the
veil of Isis temple? Or in how many thousand
lives time alone would have solved all discords
into harmoniesg An increase of longevity
would. indeed, solve the most vexing riddles of
existence; il would furnish the peculiar in
d0rsement OF Mr., MallOcks conclusion. Ii
would give the vicissitudes Of fortune chance
TO assert their equalizing tendencies; it would
supply missing link in the arguments of that
natural religion that trusts the equipoise OF
justice in the apparent caprices OF human fate.
The price of longevity would redeem the mort
gage Of our earthly paradise.

SAM JONES ON THE SITUATION.
The Picturesque Preacher Says Cleveland
is Going to Get There.

[Chautauqua, n. Y, Special To the Republlcl
Sam Jones lectured here in the amphitheatre
to an audience Of nearly 5000 people. He was
as sensational as ever but he never created
bigger sensation than he did on this occasion,
when he predicted the reelection of Presi-
dent Cleveland. He said: 81 will lecture

can jump on a few rummies, but when he
jumps on a president or governor or mayor,
