4 TINY WAR CLOUD.

A tiny cloud has appeared iu our ma
tional sky. The government OF Italy
has recalled Baron Fava, her minister
at Washington, giving as Il reason that
the King was dssatistit d with the adj
iustments touching the New Orleans
massacre. This is not necessa lily "A
declaration of war, but is step to-
wards it. The correspondence between
the two governments has not yet ceased
and explanations may yet soothe the
irritations of King Humbert and his
ministers. 1t may be that the dissat-
isfaction is chiefly with Baron Fava's
methods Of diplomacy, and that some
other Italian statesman may be sent to
talk to Secretary Blaine.
Doubtless our Secretary of State will
continue to discuss the points in con.
troversy in a concilialory way, Tut how
far the Italian diplomats may incline
to accept explanations does not as yet
appear.
We believe in peace, and would have
our government do all that equity aud
the laws of nations require to maintain
peace. If war must come, let Italy,
and not the United States, be the pru-
voking party. But if she Initiates Il
n proper punishment for vomiting up.
on our shores their laZz ,rOni and crinl-
inals, and then demanding of us All
indulgence and an immunity on their
behalf, she never gave them herself.
When Italian criminals are treated by
our people AS our own are treated she
has no right to complain.
Let US have our quarrel just, but let
it be one of decision. If war shall
come the United States must make it
notice to all the nations that their
criminal spawn must be kept at home
if they desire to save them from pun
ishment for their villanies. The ltal-
ian government degrades itself by
showing 81 much temper in regard to
the punishment Of gang of the vilest
and most dangerous miscrpants that
ever cursed any land. If it was zeal
for honest and peaceable Italians, We
should respect their excited feelings
over the New Orleans affair. AS it is
their zeal is only worthy of contempt
The United States has suffered more
from its indulgent and liberal policy
towards the criminals sent to ou1
shores, than from any other cause
Italy is in poor shape for war. Th'
European powers will not espouse he
cause, and the United States, with be
people united would soon end an.
strife Italy can initiate.

in 4 happy home Oh the prairie wide.
Dwelt a little blue eyed GIRL
Aroun'l her face so fair and bright.
Her brown hair loosely curled.
Her fingers she would often count,
She could only count, ''One," "''lwo;''
And manya cute and pretty trick
Could this little maiden do.
This little babe was never cross,
And seldom heard to cry;
Pm sure better you'd never find.
If over the world you'd try.
She would take paper and pretend to rcat
Yes, read the liveiong day,
And seldom did much mischief.
Although she loved to play.
About the floor she used to crcop,
(She was too young to waikiki
Laugh and lisp few short words,
For she had not learned to talk.
At the organ she would often sit.
And at the music lock,
AS though she was familiar with
Each piece within the book.
But on one dark and foggy day,
fever crossed her brow;
All me! just as she looked that day.
Melhinks see her now.
Her little hands were folded then,
Upon her snowy breast;
But little did we think erelong.
Fur pet would be ut rest.
The doctor watched her day by day,
He pitied, and was kind,
But" he said, twill take to save her,
A higher power than mine."
Oh. how we watched and wept,
Beside our darling s bed.
Until that one sad dreary day,
When sweet Lucille was dead.
Since then we miss her. oh, so much,
oft our eyes with tears are dim,
Yet, we can always rest assured
That she dwelleth safe with Him.
For when He was OH earth below,
To men of old. saith He,
''Ihese children in bright Heavens home
The grea. est there shall be-"
And now as we toll and weep in pain,
In our humble home below,
Our blue eyed darling is safe above,
An angel in Heaven we know.
