TO the Memory Of Robert Burns.

On banks and braes O. bonnie Doom
Still sweetly sings the warbling bird;
But he who gave its name to song
Will never more on earth be heard
The streams around Montgomery still
In murmurs kiss the pebbly shore;
But Scotia's sweetest minstrel there
Will mourn his Highland love no more.
His harp is hushed-its thrilling notes
No more are heard in shady dell;
But heathery hill and tiowery brae
Still of its tuneful numbers tell.
And while Ben Lomond proudly stands,
And mountain streams their courses run,
The Scottish Muse will freshly keep
The memory of her gifted son.

Curious Passover Custom,

The painting of hand on the houses
in Iunis. Algiers and other oriental
countries is not wholly Jewish Gus
tom, but is common to the natives OF
all. 1t is always an emblem OF good

a charm against the evil eye. Hands
arranged in the form OF u branch are
merely an aesthetic form OF the charm.
The reason Jews paint hands on their
walls at the time OF the passover is
because at that season Of the year
their houses are renovated inside and
out.
Captain Candar remarks that the
hand charm was used by the Ph9ni-
clans, and that it occurs on vOtine
steles at Carthage, whence it is sup
posed to have spread TO neighboring
cities and countries. Hands are found
painted on the walls of St. Sophia at

ny other 1t is one of the duties of tie
ty committee to fix the time for the prima-
les and to make the necessary arrangements
for their orderly conduct, and 1t is as clearly
within the scope of their authority to pre-
scribe the form of ballot as to ordain that a
checklist shall be used. The Australian
ballot is perfectly fair for very one. 1t dis
eliminates in favor of no candidate nor
faction. 1t is simple, and there is no reason
who there should be the least difficulty in
using 1t. IL the Republicans are disposed to
heartily cooperate with their city commit
tee. 1t seems to us that all the arrangements
that the committee have made are wise and
practicable and that they are calculated to
ensure what all good Republicans want,
quiet, orderly caucuses in which every
Republican will have chance to express his
preference for candidates for municipal
officers without any danger of interference
from persons who have no right to take part
in Republican primaries.

Gov. Hill apparently thinks he sees an OPP
portunity afforded by Cleveland's anti.silver
letter to revive his Presidential boom which
was nearly paralyzed by his acceptance Of
the senatorship; so his organs are industri-
ously at work to show the friends of free
silver that Hill is one of their Kind. The
World says he is a believer in free coinage
and the Sun takes occasion to republish
speech made by Hill last September in which
he outlined q plan by which he thought sill
yer might be placed on an equality with gold
in the coinage. Restricting Hill. however,
will be found hard business. Because the
Democracy are likely to love Cleveland less
on account Of his silver utterance, 1t by no
means follows that they will love Hill more.
When man remains silent for months un-
der accusations. made publicly and by re-
sponsible persons, which involve his honor
and honesty, strong presumption is created
that he does SO because of their truth. OF
course this presumption is mol conclusive.
Some other sufficient reason may exist for
his silence which Is not equivalent to confess
sion, but 1t is so natural for men when ac-
cused OF disreputable acts Of which they are
not guilty to make an immediate and vigor-
Gus denial, that delay, especially long con-
tinued delay, is likely to be interpreted as an
admission that the accusation Is true. The
charges against Senator Quay, were
made long ago. and made at time
when his own personal and politi-
cal interests would be imperilled by allowing
them to go unanswered. 1t is not strange,
therefore, that the failure to answer them
was looked upon by great portion of the
public, including a great many who we're
his political friends, as tantamount to an ad-
mission that he could not answer them ex-
cept to confess their truth. Such statement
as he made In the Senate on Monday. if mace
six months ago, would have been far more
effective than it can be now. especially as he
gives no very good reason for his delay. New
ertheless this late speaking is preferable to
eternal silence.
