six feet high in the center. Its windows
were large, and beneath each one was
commodious fireplace, the onlyiheating APP

There were two galleries, Speakers plat

each member. The chairs were covered

places were of highly polished variegated
American marble, and its window curtains
and chair coverings of light crimson da-
mask. The Presidents chair was elevated
three feet above the floor, under crimson
canopy, and the carpet, i'll excellent taste,
harmonized with its gay coloring This
hall opened upon balcony twelve feet
deep, which was guarded by an iron rail-
ing. The portion Of that railing between
the two central pillars, before which Wash
ington stood at the supreme moment of his
Inauguration, is now in the museum Of the
New York Historical Society, and its
center-piece of thirteen arrows invests it
with curious interest The balcony over
looked both Wall and Broad streets, and
90 the memorable day of Washington's in
auguration it was adorned with canopy
and curtains of red, interstreaked with
white. = Here were assembled the
men of parliamentary talent and social
accomplishment, for which the first Amer
lean Congress under the Constitution has
ever since been justly famous. They were
nearly, if not quite all, fresh from some
public service, local or general they were
astute, self-reliant, influential, opinionated,
and conscientiously and vigorously pre-
pared for whatever serious work might
come before them. While Washington,

Secretary Thomson, approaches New York

multitude cheered and shouted, and the
bells and guns caught up the echoes, aud
with ceaseless clamor and deafening din,
proclaimed the universal rapture
Washington reached the Franklin House
in tired condition, but still consented
to receive the people. He stood in the
great drawing and was welcomed by
foreign ministers, political leaders, public
bodies, military officers and many distin-
guished private citizens. With the Com
mittee he then dined with Governor Gin
ton. That night the whole city was brill
iantly Illuminated. Six days now had
elapsed in which preparation proceeded
for the Inauguration. Congress, on the
23d and 18th concluded its orders in the
premises and then all was ready for the
ceremony of inaugurating the first Presi-
dent of the United States of America.

Europe, at one time serving Congress as an
ambassador to the court of the Grand
Duke of Tuscany. He had also, at a great
crisis in the destiny of America, pledged
his large estate for the purchase Of ships OF

Effect of a Child,s Prayer.

A miserable scoundrel of California who,
of course. had the world on his side, desert
ed his wife and then trumped up the charge
that she was not the proper person to take
care of his children. He made his charges
in open court. We copy portion OF the
trial scene from San Francisco paper =
sUThis was kept up until finally the mother
said in answer to some charge made by
Chrisman: "Don't believe him, Judge, l
have raised my children as they should be-,
This was all Recorder Prince wanted, and
he said 81 will test it madam" and turn
ing to the youngest girl, little girl not
more than three years old, he said, "Can
YOU say your prayers ?" Then ensued
most touching scene. The little girl with
out a word climbed from her chair, kneit
on the floor of the court room, with the po-
licemen, spectators, judge and her father
and mother around her, and, folding her
tiny hands and lifting her eyes to heaven,
she made the grandest defense Of a mother :
word possible. Slowly but distinctly, ana
without a tremor in her voice, the innocent
little darling, born with the stain OF shame e
upon her and discarded by her father, llsped
in childish accents the Lords Prayer. as
she proceeded, utterly Oblivious OF her sur
roundings and thinking only OF him VINO
said, ''Suffer little children to come unto
me and forbid them not" as she uttered
that prayer which many in the room had
not heard for years, strong men bowed their
heads and sobbed aloud. Finishing hei
PRAYER she added God bless and mama
papa and Uncle Duliss. Amen and
arose from her knees. The case was settled,
and had William Chrisman swore thous.
and oaths that his wife was bad he would
have been disbelieyed. 1t was sever
al minutes before any one spoke, and Their
the Recorder fined the two brothers slt
each and dismissed the court"

Women Win Make tie Best Wives.

Members .of Boston debating society
have almost come to blows over the ques-
ton, "What women make the best wives?"
Culture was claimed by many to be the first
essential, love and fidelity the second, and
knowledge of household duties and ability
to properly perform them, the third. None
of the debaters, however, thought to add
that very necessary qualfcation-health-
without which wife is far from perfection.

new the hue of youth in pale and sallow
cheeks, correct irritating uterine diseases,
arrest and cure liberation aud indamma-
ton. and iufuse new vitality into wasting

medicine for women, sold by druggists,

facturers, that it will give satisfaction in
every case, or money will be refunded. This
guarantee has been printed on the bottle

ALONE.

miss you, my darling, my darling,
The embers burn low on the hearth;
And still is the air of the household,
And hushed is the voice of Its mirth;
The rain FLASHES fast on the terrace,
The wind past the lattices moan.
The midnight chimes out from the minister
And 1 am alone.
1 want you, my darling, my darling
am tired with care and with fret;
I would nestle in silence beside you,
And all but your presence forget.
In the hush of the happiness given
To those who through trusting have grown
To the fullness of love in contentmeut;
But am alone.
I call you, my darling, my darling!
Ny voice echoes back on the heart:
1 stretch my arms to you in longing,
And. 10! they fall empty apart;
I whisper the sweet words you taught me,
The words that we only have known,
TIL the blank of the dumb air is bitter,
For 1 am alone.
1 need you, my darling. my darling
With It's yearning my very heart aches;
The load that divides us weighs harder;
l shrink from the jar that it makes.
Old sorrows rise up to beset me-:
Old doubts make my spirit their own.
Oh come through the darkness and save me
For / am alone.
