face
And moistened eyes upturned to his Ca

bliss
Dear heart he said. our golden cup

Drink love-" she cried, and thank the
He draiEed the precious lips of cup and
lover.
Love blessed the kiss. but ere he wandered
thence
The mated blossoms heard this benedic-
Love lies within the brimming bowl Of
Who keeps this full has joy-who drains,
affiiction."
They heard the rustic as he smiling hed;
She reached her hand to pull the roses
blowing.
He stretched to take the purple grapes
o'er-head;
Love whispered back, Nay keep their
beauties growing"
They paused, and understood ; one flower
They took and kept, and Love flew smil-
ing over.
Their roses bloomed, their cup went brim-
She looked for love within and found
her lover.

SENATOR ZEB VANCE.

TIE announcement is authoritatlvely
made that the Farmers Alliance oi
North Carolina will not, as body,
oppose the reelection to the United
States Senate of Senator Vance. This
is wise and patriotic conclusion, and
will do more to firmly establish the
Alliance than any single action OF the
organization.
Senator Vance ranks as one of the
ablest members of that body. He is
a tower of strength. No man in the
Senate or lower house of Congress has
stood by the interests of the farmer
more faithfully than the noble Senator
from North Carolina. On all occasions
and upon every question affecting the
rights and interest of the farmer, Sena
tor Vance has been its bold and un'
compromising champion.-Birming

JOHN BOYLE O'RElLLY.
POET, EDIFoR, ORATOR, PATRIOT.
A Beautiful Tribute to His Worth,
Character And Attainments by q
Brother Poet and Journalist.

Will Hubbard -Kernan, himself a
poet who has displayed high order
of genius and originality, and one Of
the most pointed and pungent writers
connected with any one of our numer-
Gus exchanges, pays this beautiful
tribute to John Boyle O'Reilly, the
poet editor of the Boston Piiot, whose
sad and unexpected death has already
been announced. We copy from'the
Escanaba, Michigan, Mi,ror, which
paper Mr.. Herman has been editing
with signal ability for several months !:
A splendid figure has filed off the
stage of man and Immortality forever.
John Boyle O'Rellly,
Poet,
Patriot and
Pride Of the people,
Solved the miracle and mystery of
life, in his home by the sea, at Hull, in
Massachusetts, while dawn was pearling
into the full daybreak of the 10th.
He had scarcely rounded to his
regnant prime when he was summoned
to the serener life, the wider horizons
and the lottier plains Of Immortality.
Born in Ireland, he entered the
English army, in his young manhood,
for the proud, pure purpose of teaching
the soldiery of his own race that they
should revolt against the British flag
the flag that has brought
Blood,
Fire and
Tears
TO the Irish for seven bloody and
barbaric centuries. Detected in his
labor Of love and liberty, he was thrown
into prison and condemned to the
death but his sentence was changed
to exile, and he was sent to Australia.
From thence he made his escape in an
open boat; was picked up by an
American ship, and brought to this
country, where his career has been one
long series of triumphs in literature,
oratory and journalism.
As a patriot, he will rank forever
with the indomitable heroes of his
race; as poet, he will be remembered
forever as one OF the most illustrious
singers of the XIXth century; as a
man he will retain forever
Fragrant and
Flowering
Place in the green gardens of memo
ry, as one who modelled his life by the
loftiest standards, and made his own
that inspired utterance:
-" Be just, and fear not.
Let all the ends thou aim'St at
Be, thy country's Gods and Truths.
All that is purest-all that is most
progressive-in the whole sum and
sweep of humanity loved this man fol
himself, and loved him for the English
enemies that he made.
Great soul! Gallant sovereign un.
crowned! The mirror and a mighty
multitude that no man can number
speak thy name with reverence thi:
day, as it will be spoken by unborn
myriads till the endless end shall toll
Brave, serene and marvellous spirit,
All hail and
Farewell!

We are no friend to protection, but
we quite agree with what the Edenton
Fisherman ami Farmer says in the
following paragraph:
The farmer who does not take
proper care of his stock, or Of his farm
implements, ought not to say much
about the tariff or any other question.
The man who makes speeches against
the tariff and lets his moving machine
rot and rust in the field, has not got
hold of the biggest end of his troubles

UNITED STATES SENATE,
WASHINGTON, D. c., Aug. ].

mr.. ---, C0I15O0f0 ~. L.
Ny DEAR SIR Your favor of and
inst, has been received. l take pleas
ufe in answering it, but am compelled
for want of time to be very brief.
The bill as Polk and Macune handed
it to me contained a provision tina,
supervisors of warehouses, who were
to be agents Treasury Department,
should be elected by the qualified voters
Of each county wherin the warehouse
was to be situated. l did change that
and provide that they should be ap-
pointed by the Secretary of Treasury.
Please get copy of the constitution
and look at the second clause of section
2, article 2, and you will see why
there is no greater danger to the good
cause of the farmers than it should be
entrusted to the management of lead
ers who could not frame a bill without
directly violating in this way the plain
language of the constitution-so plain,
in fact, that a schoolboy cannot mis-
understand it. l made no other
changes in the bill except to change
the word ub-Treasury and substitute
"bonded agricultural warehouses;" for
the reason that there is an old politi-
cal prejudice against that name sub
Treasury. Those who charge me with
thus changing the bill in order to make
it unpopular are guilty Of falsehood and
adsurdity. | was and am friendly to
the purposes of the bill, and to every
thing that the farmers wish that can
be granted without violating the fun
! damentai law of my country. If their
cause is wisely directed it will triumph
as sure as there is justice upon earth
1t is pity that it should be handi.
capped at the very start by a measure
so unconstitutional and iutpracticable.
May God give them wisdom to dc
the right and succeed.
I thank you for your kind expression:
for me personally.
Very truly yours,

found himself in the pulpit Sunday
morning with tho wrong sermon In his
pocket. There was no time to send homo
for tho right one, as the congregation
was singing the hymn that preceded tho
discourse: nor would it do to preach
from the manuscript before him, as it
had been directed against his hearers

critical moment. He succeeded, how

the absent manuscript was based, and so
he began and finished his remarks on
