a Poet's Wooing.

In weaving rhymes about her name,
Her agile form, her rosy checks,
The beauty she could rightly claim,
I squandcrcd hours, and days and weeks.
In weaving rhymes about her soul,
The subtle music in her speech,
The hours and days away did roll,
Yet she was ne'er within my reach.
Ispent a year. it seems to me,
in weaving rhymes about her heart
Yet was deep in misery,
And from all Happiness apart.
Alasl for the unhappy times
That como to =lortals when they err
While was busy weaving rhymes
Another youth walked OF with her.

believe it merits the patronage of our own
and other communities. W. l.. WILSON.
Being n patron of the STEPHENSON FE-
MALE SEMINARY, 1 bear testimony that it
is in all respects an excellent school for Young
ladies. Its course is taught With thorough
ness that commands my admiration, and it is
at the same time so taught as to become at
tractive to the scholars. Its accomplished
Principal and Teachers have solved the prob
lem of making hard study q pleasure to the
student.
Its discipline is all that any Christian or
prudent parent can desire. Exact and firm,
it is gentle. affectionatc and home-like so tint
girls who board soon learn to regard themselves
as members of the Christian family. No pafss
are spared to preserve health, and TO mHl5l5 th5
young aluuleS COlnIOTIuule ana happy. no
school can offer greater advantages for moral
and religious culture.
Rev. C. N. Campbell has abundantly shown
his peculiar adaptation to teaching and train
ing young ladies. and he has shown this in en-
inent degree in his selection of teachers to as
sist him. A. G. HOPKINS,
Pastor Presbyterian Church.
My daughter has been student of the
STEPHENSON FEMALE SEMINARY, Charlestown,

portunity thus afforded l can form a correct
Judgment of the ability of the corps of teach
ers Of this Seminary 1t gives me pleasure to
testify to the satisfactory mannerin which the
pupils of the school are taught. Their educa-
ton is, in my judgment, much more substantial
and thorough than that to be acquire at fe-
male seminaries generally. The Seminary is
located in healthy country, inhabited by a
moral, educated and refined people,

chlsement They had made . manly light
from the first without hlnchlng.
Tho Republicans, baked at every point,
demoralized and defeated, outgenernlled and
despairing, finally yielded their ground In
favor Of the so-called compromise bill, which
is entirely In limo with the Governors sug-
gestions, and In perfect accord with his atti-
tude on the subject as made known In THE
Sun on Jan. l, 1890, as follows:
1T may a. well be told to the Republican majority
Of the Legislature shat Governor HILL viii sign no
ballot reform bill that viii disfrRncbse slnGo voter.
He will sign no bill that win tend 70 prevent poorly sdu-
Gated men from voting He will veto any bill that dr.

The Governor win gladly sign a bill 70 prevent bribery
at elections and to make the stringent laws that

can rural eountea But he win not Sign bill that puts
n stigma on poorly educated voter and complicateS

The new compromise bill. which has now
been passed by both branches OF the Legis-
lature, does away with: I. Tho Australian
or blanket ballot. ii. Government nomina-
lions, and Exclusively Official" ballots.
Ill. Marking OF tickets and voting by the
proxy OF any sworn public officers"
No citizen. under Its operations, rich or
poor. educated or unlettered, Ia disfran-
chised; otherwise than by his own deliberate
act. From the first Governor HILL has
made manly and courageous battle for the
cause Of Democracy and for the principles
OF tho Democratic party. He has had the
vigorous and hearty support Of the party In
the State. and together they have won. The
menace OF Republican control through
Democratic disfranchisement has passed
away and Democratic voters in the sunlight
OF their success will forget neither those
who have won the battle for their rights nor
those who skulked.

to lite bin. But the hpoiogetio language Of
some Senators who then voted against that
amendment, makes itdoubtful whether thoy
can be relied upon TO vote against 1t again.
The most that can be expected from some OF
them is to restore the pensionablc ago to g.
And even II the Senate insists on Its own
bill, the almost certain expense OF over $780,
100000 year will soon grow to $4,000 900.
Under the House bill the expense must
become lnrger from year 70 year with the
arrival OF a greater and greater number OF
Union veterans at the pensionRble age.
Il wns fatal precedent which Mr.. CIEvE-
LAND created in signing bill for giving
pension at the age OF 90 to Veterans OF the
Mexican war, and yet vetoing bill for de-
pendent Union veterans, Had he vetoed
both bills or signed both, there would have
been more consistency In his conduct. But 1t
was plain at tho time that no such discrim-
nation against Union Veterans could DO al
