EARLY AUTUMN N.


The country lanes are bright with 1o IloSSm'
And gentle airs come stealing through,
Laden with native wild perfume
VI balm and mint ana honey.qeW:
And DER the summers raoient nuSn
Lies early autumn's dreamy hush.
1t wayside hooks the asters CLEAN,
And frost-fowers dance above the sod,
While, lapsing by, the silent stream
Reflects The hue of godenr0d,
That flower which lights dusky day
with something OF the sun-god's ray.
The grapevine chambers DER the heoge
In golden fest0Ons sumacs burn
Like torches on the distant ledge,
Or light the lane at every turn,
And ivy riots everywhere
In blood-red banners on the air.
A purple mist of fragrant mint
Borders the fences, drifting out
OF fostering corners, and its tint,
AS half of cheer and half of doubt,
Is like the dear delightful haze
Which robes the hills these autumn days.
And strange wild groths are newly met:
Old things but little priced of yOre,
Like some old jewel well reset,
Take ON worth unseen before,
AS dock, In spring grdceless weed,
Is brilliant in its autumn seed.
The cricket and the katydid
Pipe low their sad prophetic tune,
Inougn airs pulse warm the leaves amid,
AS played around the heart of June
SO minor strains break on the heart,
Foretening age as years depart.
The sweet old story of the year
Is spinning onward to its close,
Yet sounds as welcome on the ear
AS In the time of op'ning rose.
May life for all as sweetly wane
AS comes the autumn-time again!

when his stomach refused all kinds Of food. He

Beard rep. This District ought to be re-
deemed; although young Andrew is yerv
wealthy and quite popular. But he has
against him an extraordinarily able candi-
date In Edward l.. Pierce.
Inc Fourth District is surely Democratic
IL anything in this world is sure. J. Il.
ONeill (Deml had s0Sl plurality and is b
candidate again with no perceptibla loss of
popularity.
Inc Fifth District is where General Banks
was elected last year by 1.464 plurality over
1. w. Higginson. General Banks is not
candidate again, and his retirement has led
to some divisions which have imperilled
party success. But at present 1t seems prob
able that the Republicans will succeed.
In the other districts the pluralities were
as follows.
Sixth, Lodge (Rep.l, 1894.
Seventh Cogswell (Rep }, 4572.
Eighth, Greenhalge (Rep.l J, 1920.
Ninth, Gambler (Rep), 2036.
Tenth, Walker (Rep.). 1915
Eleventh, wallace (Rep.). 1916
Twelfth, Rockwell (Rep) 2027.
There ought to be no doubt of any OF these
districts this year; and there probably Is not
unless it be In the Eleventh, where Colonel
Myrou p. Walker is running as an indepen-
dent Republican candidate for no reason on
earth but to show his disappoint-
ment that he failed of the Republican nomi-
nation.

The Tory disaster in the Eccles election
was so complete that the Liberal newspapers
In England are demanding general election
TO test the sentiment of the people on the
question of Home Rule for Ireland. But
the granting of a new election rests entirely
with Lord Salisbcry's ministry, which does
not favor Home Rule to any great extent.
An English Parliament differs greatly from
our Congress in the length of its existence.
Congress continues two years, and then
expires on given day the Fourth CT March,
by constitutional Limitation. But there is
another difference. A Congress must exist
two years. No power on earth, under our
present constitution. can shorten the life of
a Congress day. The President has certain
powers with reference to its sessions, but
none with reference to its existence. The
House and Senate themselves cannot
lengthen or shorten the life Of Congress.
But Parliament, while it may exist seven
years, may also exist less than one. The
sovereign may at any time terminate the
existence of Parliament; although in doing
so the sovereign acts merely as the agent of
the ministry In power. who are in turn
strictly the agents Of the majority party in
Parliament. So. when the act is closely in
spected, Parliament itself determines wheth-
er 1t will exist seven years or a less time. A
ministry may end Parliament because II
has ceased to support their policy and they
hope general election may return ore that
Will, or because public sentiment in favor of
new election becomes too strong to resist,
or because they believe that general elec-
ton will result in renewed triumph for their
party. In the present Parliament Lord
Salisbury has majority of supporters, and
ne does not wish new election because he
fears 1t might return majority against him
and In favor of Mr.. Gladstone. Neither does
ne seem to believe that public sentiment is so
strong as to demand new appeal to the
electors. The present Parliament was elect
ed In 1885, and yet has two years to run and
In that time events may so shape themselves
as to give an opportunity for Lord Salisbury
to appeal to the country at time when SEN
timent shall favor his party. Such time
does not seem probable; but many improba-

Providence, II. l., Nov. 17.-When Chief
George Starke was going over the hill to the
Olneyville fire he said to his companions:
sHeavens, what's the matter?" The valley
was full of big and little blazing balls of
fire. The balls were still coming up in the
draft from the burning drying houses, and
shooting and floating in all directions. for
there was no wind. The deputy chief
thought they we're fire balloons. When
they got nearer they could see these me-
teors burning ON top uf the house roofs. and
in many cases the shingles were aare III II
dozen places. The fremen had time also
to see that many of the things went up i'll
the all big and died out, and few that
they saw went ont on the roofs after blaz-
ING awhile. They weren't like sparks, fol-
thew blazed brightly while they were going
and then went right out.
