The new St MichaeI's church lately built
- the Pine Is not only an ornament but q
benefit TO the county. Such substantial,
spacious and tasteful buildings make the
impression on strangers Of q county that is
"looking up" aud this opinion was expres-
sed last week by visitor from Lancaster
county, Pa. One such building gives an
impulse 10 all who have buildings 10 erect
10 aim OF q higher standard. Those who
are interested in the c0unty will be glad 20
observe attempts at improvement In every
direction. Last Saturday IN solemn Gre
gorian requiem was sung at st. Georges
church in admirable style by the reorgan-
lied choir On the Sunday following the
Instrumentation and vocalization We're of q
very high order. Miss Virginia Combs has
in preparation Buffers Mass in @ and is
always adding TO her repertoire fresh musi-
cal gems. In the churches Of st. Nicholas
and Holy Face High Mass is delivered ev-
cry Sunday by choir Of children in cor
rect style and with impressive effect. As
good architecture and music have a REIN
ing and elevating influence we may re-
gard the Improvements above referred To
with qualification.

Gently fold the tiny fingers
Ger the pulseless. infant breast:
Close the snowy, waxen eyelids,
For the baby is At rest
Part the silken, wavy ringlets
Der the pure and sinleSs brow;
Hiss the clay cold, marble forehead
Cheiub! she IS dreaming now.
Softly tread where she is sleeping;
Mourn not, sigh not, weep no mon:
Else YOU viii disturb her visions
Bright dreams-ansels hov'ring DER.
Saw You ever augkt 50 lovely,
AS she looks, fair dreamer, now?
Like some sculpiuIed, marble angel.
Heavens own halo round her brow.
All how early she Is resting!
How soon tined her tender feet:
All, how soon you saw her droopins.
Like flower meath midday heat,
Jewel. crushed in your home-casket-
Rosebud, severed from your stem
Fair, bright gem, by angels gathered
For the Saviour's diadem.
Yet, grieve not. You have not lost her
No, she's only gone before
Gone mp e. that brighter dwelling,
Where death meier can blight her mon
Ere she'd known one sin or sorrow.
Ere she'd learned that earth l. cold.
Angels bore her DER the river
Safely 20 their Fathers fold.

PRESENTING JOHN c. FREMONT.

The chair said that he desired to make a
pleasing announcement The Nebraska
delegation had with it as its guest the first
nominee of the republican party for presi-
dent, and desired to present him to the con-
vention. They desired to present John c.
Fremont. This announcement was received
with cheers, and the convention voted TO
allow Chairman Green, of the Nebraska
delegation, to present Gen. Fremont. When
Mr.. Green appeared upon the stage with
Gen. Fremont there was an outburst OF APP
plause, which lasted several moments
Gen. Fremont was unwilling, he said, to
delay the business of the convention, and
therefore, he would consume cnly few
moments Of time. But he would feel
that he carried an insensible clod
and not warm aud sympathetic
heart in his breast if he was not sensibly
grateful for the welcome he had received
He was happy and proud to receive here in
this great national assembly the welcome
given by his friends and ompanioSS of
many years, by his party friends, by tho
men and the sons of the men with whom it
has been his conspicuous honor to have
been associated in the first opening cam
paign Of 1855. [ApplauSe.1

Foraker arose in his seat and was cheered.

not Depew, however, but the resemblance
creates some little comment and there are
not few guesses as to his identity.
THE NATIONAL COMMITTEE ENTERS.
AT HAS o'clock members of the
national committee come in pairs
and groups. They met this morning at their
headquarters and have just got through
their business, which has been specially the
gathering together Of their remaining quota
of tickets for seats.
Mr.. Thurston of Nebraska arrives with
the members of the committee from his
state, and takes seat on the stage just
back of the chairman's desk, which he is
soon to occupy as temporary presiding
officer of the convention.
Mr.. Thurston is the smallest man who
wears glasses and he is dressed in somber
black. AS Gen. Fremont entered the hall
he was greeted with a round of applause
and cheers, the first genuine demonstration
of the morning. He was escorted to a seat
on the platform, where he provoked a
further outburst of applause by meeting
Fred Douglass as he came to the seat beside
him and shook him by the hand.
TWO HANDSOME GAvELs.
Carson Lake, of the national committee,
came upon the platform just before the con-
vention was called to order and brought
with him two handsome oak gavels-ope
merely polished and intended for hard
pounding; the other, a more pretentlous
affair, intended as gift to the temporary
chairman, is richly chased in gold, and has
engraved upon its several gold bands the
names of Washington, Lafay cite, Grant,
Lincoln, Garfield and Logan.

CHAIRMAN JONES' ADDRESS.
And He Sung the Song OF the Protect
i've Tariff.

CHICAGO, June 19.-Chafrman Jones, in
calling the convention to order, said 1.-The
two parties are diametrically opposite to
each other. One favors progress, the other
retrogression. One lifts up, the other casts
down. The democratic party has thrown
off the disguise in which it has heretofore
fought its battles in the northern states, and
has boldly declared for British free trade
and against American protection. This
avowal has caused much adulation in GER
tain sections of this country and in all of
England, which has from the beginning
been hostile to the industrial progress of
the United States; but it has fallen heavily
upol the ears of the patriotic portion of the
democratic party. The tariff question was
not considered as one embracing solely or
chiefly the manufacturers iaterest, but one
which broadly embraced the social con-
ditions of the labOring CLASSES, the mutual
interest of all home producefs In the home
market, and of the country's real indie
pendence. H
After relating the history of the alleged
alliance of the south with the English
manufacturers under the administrations
of Van Buren,, Polk, Pierce and Buchanan,
the chairman continued:
To-day we occupy n much higher plane
than any other people on the face of the
BlODo. uo Icpub!lCttu ~ bcboNto LAJdL
we should have the full beIiefit of all our
natural advantages and the full enjoyment
of our glorious heritage Through
the criminal folly of nsrtain pro
fessed republicans, oar honofsd and gallant
standard bearers in 1884 we're defeated. We
are again confronted with this same demo-
cratic party asking for the power to control
and direct the future course of the country.
II majority of the American voters favor
the giving away of the home market, in
comparably the best in the world,
and the forcing of our people,
now the most prosperous and happy on the
face of the earth, into competition with and
down to level with the cheapest of our
foreign rivals, the democratic doctrines
will prevail. If not, the republican party
will resume its authority and successfully
lead this great country with its beneficent
institutions toward that sublime goal which
all patriots believe to be is heaven ordained
destiny. have no doubt of the result"

Tree trade. As we gather here we
remember that other great convention held
in this city in 1880. We remember how 1t
was inspired with wisdom and courage to
select that great man Of the people, that
Moses who led us through the parted
waters OF the sea, past the wilderness
OF battles over the Jordan Of safety.
In 1854 we were driven back into the will
derness again. God give us the wisdom TO
tind another Moses who can limit our wan
derlnS TO four years instead Of forty The
mighty past is with us hore to-day. 1t oils

ism and devotion which hreathed into the
common dust of ordinary humanity the
sublime inspiration of heroic deeds Let us
read its lesson rightly, and hold its precepts
dear.

quested that his heart should be
