THE MONUMENT AT PLYMOUTH.

Thursday, August 1, promises to
be a great and memorial day at Ply
mouth, Mass. On that day the
monument which has been long in
process of construction, in honor of
the Pilgrim Fathers, is to be former
" dedicated; and the dedication, ac-
cording to present arrangements, is
to be on scale of magnitude, grand
eur and solemnity worthy of the oc-
cas1on.
1t was in 1920 the Pilgrim society
was formed, the object being to per
petuate the memories of those from
whom the society took its name. 1t
was not long after its organization
that the society, looking to a suita-
bic monument as soon as circum-
stances were favorable, fixed upon a
hill overlooking the harbor and took
the necessary steps to secure the
property In 1858, a design having
been prepared by Architect Ham
matt Billings, the scheme began to
assume a more practical form.
On August 2, 1859, the corner
stone of the monument was laid
with impressive ceremonies, among
those present and taking part being
Richard Warren, of New York, the
president of the society; Gen n. P.
Banks, then Governor of Massachu-
setts: Salmon p Chase and others
A box containing valuable records
was placed in the stone by DIR. Nath-
aniel B. Shurtleff, of Boston, on be-
half of the building committee. The
work made progress, although slow
ly; and in 1877 the pedestal was
completed, and the figure of Faith
which crowns 1t was put in position
The monument is solid granite

GENERAL SPINNER'S PLEA FOR
THE BIRDS.

The venerable, kind-hearted Gener-
al F. E. Spinner writes from his camp
in Florida to his friends, the boys of
America, to spare the birds. 81 well
recollect," he says, that l once shot
a robin. He flew some distance, and
fell in the tall grass. l went and
picked him up, and found that had
inflicted a fatal wound in his breast.
The poor, wounded bird looked up
into my face so imploringly that it
caused me to shed tears, and now,
today, at the age of eighty-fve years,
l am haunted by the pitiful, implor-
ing look of that poor innocent, dying
bird, and feelings of deep remorse
come. over me whenever | see robin.
l would be willing to make great sac
rifces to be made guiltless of the
wanton murder of that poor inno-
cent bird" The General made a spe-
cial plea for that sweetest of all Amer
lean songsters, the Unnamed cat
bird.

RATHER BE RIGHT THAN BE POST
MA STER.

The following document has been
received at Washington from the edi-
tor-postmaster at Mt Carmel, H.:
Mt. Carmel, June 7, 1889.
To Hon. B. Harrison, President, etc.
Sir: By the grace of God and Gro
yer Cleveland l am postmaster at
Mt Carmel. My official term will
expire Jan 20, 1890. In addition to
editing the mails of this city 1 am
also the editor of the Mt. Carmel
Register, established in 1889, and
published at $1.25 a year, cash in
advance; discount of 20 per cent
to ministers and presidents.
While the office has agreed with me,
and l have in the main agreed with
the Office, and while l might reason
ably entertain the hope of holding
on for eight months longer, yet l feel
it my duty to tender you my resig-
nation.
Being a democrat, l have preached
that ito the victors belong the
spoils." 1 feel disposed to practice
what l preach.
Your immediate predecessor hoped
to build up his party by keeping the
opposition in Office. You are proba-
bly, aware, if you are at all familiar
with the vocabulary of true and trite
sayings, that his nameis now Dennis
l am moved further to tender you
my resignation because of the anXi-
ETY. of barn-yard full of patriots to
succeed me. l believe that a tariff is
a tax. They do not. Therefore,
they are of your own kith and kim
dred, and he who provides not for his
own household is worse than an in
fdel. l am told that you are not
built that way.
But to resume the thread of my
discourse. The boys who are anx-
ious to be my successor are very hun
CRY; they have been feeding on shucks
and icicles for four long, weary years;
the official calf is fat, and they yearn
to taste its tender joints. They
fought (among themselves), bled lat
the nose), and are willing to die for
the g. o. p. When l asserted that
you were the Chinaman' candidate
and ate rat-tail soup with chopsticks,
they swore by Dudley and Foster
that it was a campaign canard, and
threatened to detail blocks of five to
fry the fat out of me. Fortunately
for me their threats were never car
1-ied into execution. They carried
torches, drank with the coons, sung
"Grandpa's Hat will just fit Benny"
and did divers and many foolish
things, none of which would they
have been guilty of doing had they
not scented an aroma of post office
on the crisp morning air. And the
paans of praise which they sounded
when it became evident that you
had got there, Eli" will ever be
Sahara in my memory.
For these and other reasons I'M
necessary to mention l tender you
my resignation, with the hope that
my successor will be- animated by a
similar spirit in 1898. If he is, your
successor will be spared
the painful necessity of turning the
rascal out" lam respectfully yours,
FRANK W. HAVILL, p. M.

be postmaster.
