TRIUMPHANT DEMOCRACY.

'Oh, say do you sec by the dawn's early liehts"

No conqueror had victory half so complete.
IT'S the flag of Democracy. long may it wave,

May it ever be SO when brave patriots stand

general sherman as a scholar.

John Swinton, of this city, has letter
once sent to him by General Sherman
with view to its publication There
are two striking sentences in this
letter. In one of them General Sher-
man, after correcting an erroneous re-
port that had been printed about him
self, refers to the way in which such
reports are liable to swell as they cir
culate. He says: Distance and time
swell rumor in the ratio OF the cube
Of distance, or, as Horace records, the
fight of rumor is like that of an
eagle, which ascends from its perch
straight for time. and then In circles
larger and larger, till its original start.
ing point Is lost" In another part OF
General Sherman's letter, while refer
ring to question that is now looming
up all over the world, he writes thus:
'On the great question OF the conflict
between capital and labor I know moth
ing, and must use the Spanish to ex-
plain my position, Dios Sabe." Mr..
Swinton says that it is evident from
these sentences that General Sherman
is classical as we'll as mathematical
scholar. and that he also acquired sono
! knowledge of Spanish glottology while

no open opposition to his visits,
but muttered something about farmers
leaving their work to take care of itself,
while they forced their company where
their room was preferable"
But gradually as she saw more OF the
young man whose daily visits always
brought such happy light to Kitty's
eyes, Mrs. Ryan, almost unconsciously
to herself, began to like him, and, as
this new feeling grew upon her, she
often found herself CHANGING with adj
miring eyes down the maple-shaded
lane to rest on the broad stretch of
meadow and upland beyond. 1t was the
finest farm around, the widow began to
acknowledge to herself, and then came
though more tardily-a second ac-
acknowledgement, viz: That if Ralph was
a Homer, he wasn't SO much like his
father after all, but more resembled his
mother, against whom personally Mrs
Ryan could remember nothing evil.
The widow was standing in the door,
way overlooking the Homer estate
when this conclusion became settled in
her mind. Probably the undulating
stretch of we'll titled acres had its in
fluence in bringing about this decision.
Be this as it may, the next morning when
Ralph called as usual to learn how
Kitty was doing, instead Of sending the
little maid of work to admit him, with
iniunctions to stay with her young
mistress until Mr. Homer left, Mrs.
Ryan herself met him at the door and
conducted him, with encouraging smiles
and pleasant words, to the cool parlor
where Kitty was reclining. OF course,
after such generous and unlooked-for
reception, the young mans visit was
longer than common, and before he left
he was made happy by the assurance
that Kitty's love and her mothers con-
sent to an early union were his.
And all this through the predatory
proclivities Of flock of geese Helma
Dixon, in N. Y. Weekly.

near one of the vine-draped windows at
glich the young girl was seated
Mrs. Ryan and her daughter were as
unlike each other as mother and child
could well be-
The widow was tall and angular in
hrm, with flinty black eyes, and hair of
Abe same color, glossy and straight, and
always combed from the low, broad
forehead with critical precision. The
broad mouth was firmly drawn down at
the corners, while the whole contour of
her face betokened an inHex1ble will
and firm adherence to any formed
opinion Kitty was short in stature,
Slender and sylph-like in form, with
deep blue eyes full of melting tender
ness. Then she had the curliest auburn
hair and lips that, in their smiling
earyes, bespoke yielding disposition.
kitty" said Mrs. Ryan, as she took
off her sun-bonnet and wiped the pers-
piration from her face, 1.-The geese have
all got into Ralph Homer's wheat lot,
and you will have to go and get them
out II young Homer should find them
there they would all come home with
broken bones Ralph is just such an
other as his father was before him.
There never was any good in any of
the Homer stock. So run along and get
the geese home before he sees them.
Strange that George and Will always
happen away just when they're wanted
as home"
Soon Kitty was walking down the
maple-shaded lane which ran between
the two farms. The wind murmured
unsteady through the leaves of the
trees and the little brook, which
skirted the roadside. puzzled over its
stoney bed in soft and harmonious re-
sponscs.
And Kitty heard, and naturally
enough gave way to musings quite
foreign to her Grand
Bat though the geese running riot in
Ralph Homer's grain were forgotten,
the young master of the domain him
self was not.
Nttys memory carried her back to
lne days when as schoolmates she and
Ralph Homer had been all in all to each
otner' and, the time when the boy, then
grown to young manhood, come home
nom the Princeton Academy to set her
