MY LOVE AND I.

I Idresmed last night that we were afoat,
NY love and I, in fairy boat;
The troubles of life we had risen above,
And had naught to do save dream OF love.
The crescent moon was our fairy boat
On the soft white clouds we seemed to noat
While far in our wake the Milky Way
A cleaning flood Of glory lay.
NY oar blades rose and fell on the tide,
Scattering moonbeams on every side;
Happier far than the gods were we
To float on that boundless, starry sea.
Music divine fell from above,
Whose every note was breadth Of love,
A discord rude on the music broke,
The glory vanished, ana I awoke.
Yes, awoke to the old, Woodworking life,
with its endless worry and toll and strife,
But through the darkness shines one gleam--
Tho memory Of that golden dream.
And oftentimes, as I close my eyes,
Once more am back in paradise;
Once more my love and do float
On the fieecy clouds, in fairy boat.
ALLEN Payson Terhune, in LippIncott's.

parish OF St Thomas got its mill points
stripped and the roof Of q house in the same
parish was blown of. One of the points of
the mill at Oxford, St. Peter, was stripped, as
was also one of the points Of the mill at
Mount Gay, ST. Lucy. The Water mill at
Grab Hill plantation was injured. The mills
at Trsnts and Harrisons, St. Lucy, were in
jured, and the roof ola small wooden house,
the property of Susan Campbell, Of St. Lucy,
fell in, and the side Of a wall building, the
property of Geo. Griffith, near Grab Hill,
st. Lucy, fell. The dwelling Of one John
Cornell on Champion Ground, st. Lucy, was
damaged. The houses of John Greaves and
Richard Edwards, near Hope Estate, st. Lu-
cy, were injured.
Sugar making would have been nearly
completed for the present crop but for the in
terruption caused by the rains. The results
are very irregular. The totals fall short
where they were expected to be good, and ex-
coed in cases where there were deprecated.
From the same correspondent quoted above we
learn that "In the Eastern district there is
grinding to be done only on Bayleys, Sand
fords, PoIlards, and Oughtersons. In the
north western corner, HaltoD has some cane
standing, whilst in the southwestern quarter

been for sugar making formany a long year.
In the southern district Stirling, MGngrope,
and Kirton are still at work Notwithstand-
ing there was no sensible decrease in the
quantity Of rotten canes, my sugar was GER
tainly stronger as the closing days Of the crop
drew on, the only way Of accounting for this
being, that the showery weather strengthened

Some Of the crops Of the parish have quite
come up to the estimates formed Of them ear
lier in the year, exceeding last seasons figures
by q fair amount Of tons in some Instances.
Others have finished up at totals considera-
bly, under the estimates and expectations.
On one Estate the crop has been very nearly.
If not quite, double that reaped in 1891,
The weather Of last year Showed a varied and
checkered record, and so the crops are uneven,
shelving considerable variation in different
localities"

Office, believing him, and anxious to prove
that France protects Catholicism everywhere
except, indeed, in France-has s~ignifed to
Lord Salisbury that it shall expect redress at
his hands. Lord Salisbury has replied that
he must await reports from Uganda, and has
laid before M. Ribot the instructions given to
Captain Lugard, which strictly enjoin him not
to interfere in any religious q%uarrels. We
have endeavoured to explain the affair else
where, and need only mention here that Cap
tain Lugard has always been supposed to be
over friendly to the Catholics and has pro-
badly only when driven to act against them

Spectator, lime An.

1t is officially announced that the Princess
marls, eldest daughter of the Duke Of Edln-
burgh, is betrothed to the Prince Ferdinand
OF Hohenzollern Sigmaringen, statutory heir to
the throne of Roumania. The Prince Is aCatho-
hc,and the marriage bars the very distant claim
OF the Princess to tho British throne, but IS,
OF course, otherwise governed by the custom,
not OF England, but of SAKE Coburg Gotha.
The group Of families allied by close kinship
or marriage with the reiguing family of this
country now includes, therefore, Germany,
Russia, Denmark, Saxe-Coburg, Hesse, Greece
Belgium, Roumania, and Portugal, nine
thrones, or, with Great Britain, ten, of which
three are of the highest class. The result is
an evidently increased intimacy among the
personagos belonging to that section Of
the Royal caste, but it Will probably have lit
Tie influence on politics. One House. the
bourbon, for a time directed its policy by ia
mlly considerations, but during this century,
Royal cousins have shown much capacity for
hating and fighting each other. They retain
however, the caste feeling very strongly, and
so far as we remember, no one in close sue
cession to a throne has stepped outside its
boundary for a bride. The apparent excep-
ton, the second son of the King Of Sweden, is
NTH from the succession, and has renowned
all claims to be considered Royal. The Rou-
manian Prince is, we believe, exceptionally
rich, or at all events, his father was credited
with the possession Of nearly twenty mil
lions.
The French have a new grievance against
as. 1t appears that civil war has broken out
IN Uganda, the State on Lake Victoria, be-
tween the Catholic Negroes, assisted by the
hlng Mwanga, and the Protestant Negroes
who support Captain Lugard, representative
OF the British East Africa Company, to whose
admlnls tration the kingdom has been assigned.
Uganda was it will be remembered, included
under the Con vention of Berlin, within "the
British sphere of influence In January,
the Catholics attacked some chiefs protected
ny the British, and Captain Lugard repulsed
them, and threw some of the French mission
aries into prison. Monsignor Hirth, Vicar
Apostolic of Uganda, declares that he and his
priests have been shamefully treated, their
property plundered, and they themselves sub
l"otsd to indignities and the French Foreign

1t is once more announc ed, apparently on
authority. that the Emperors Of Russia and
Germany are to meet for a few hours at Kjel,
probably on the 7th inst. The Gar owes
his cousin u visit, but he hates the idea Of a
reception in Berlin; and his compromise, has,
it is said, been devised to avoid the appear
ance Of intentional discourtesy. The arrange
msnt is probably Of little Importance, as the
two monarchs, great as their personal power
may be, are bound ina hundred invisible fet-
ters, and could hardly arrive at amy secret
arrangement. 1t is to be noted, however, that
the suspicious politicians of Vienna regard the
meeting with annoyance, and keep repeating
eagerly hat it can have no political signiti-
canoe, or the Austrian Emperor would have
been invited. A simple explanation of the
whole affair is the preference OF the Gar for
travelling by sea. He is never safe on a
railway, unless it is practically lined with
troops; while it is impossible for an assassin
to blow up a ship, unless he blows himself up
too; aud a crowd Of innocent persons beside.
The last lailway explosion deeply affected the
mind Of the Czarina, and it is no imputation
on the Car to say that he would rather not be
put to death violently. Cromwell showed pre-
cisely the same feeling, and so has every Sow
ereign not protected, like William of Orange,
by u trace Of genuine fatalism.

This Island Of Mauritius was stricken by a

a. m. on that day, the wind began to rise to q
hurricane, and about 3 p. M. became q lorna
do such as even i'll the tropics is witnessed
only once in q century. A third of Port Louis
was blown Town at once, and twelve hundred
people killed, while all over the island the
plantations were destroyed, the sugar-mills
blown down, and the bulk Of the machinery
used by the planters rendered totally unser-
viceable.
Twenty thousand persons are said to be
homeless, and half the produce of the year is
considered lost. The Mayor Of Port Louis
has telegraphed to the Lord Mayor Of London
to open a subscription for the island, and the
Government of the colony intend to ask a

The State convention Of the republican
clubs of Vermont completed Its work FRI
day in manner highly gratifying to all
who participated in its deliberations The
gathering was by all odds the most en-
tbusiastc Of its kind held by the republicans
OF Vermont in many years and few who lis
tened to the many vigorous and inspiring
speeches delivered at the various sessions
will soon forget the strong inpr essions made
thereby. The principles set forth by tho
various speakers represent republican doc
trine in all its purity, without even the sug-
gestion Of undsoundness in the remotest de-
gree. Tho protection OF American in
dustries was more heartily endorsed prob
ably than any other issue, and this is OF itself
significant. AS Col. Clarke showed in his
able and convincing address on tho tariff,
Vermont is less Interested in manufacturing
than almost any other Eastern state and it
is the height OF patriotism aud uuselfshness
for n people to support policy which bene-
fits others. Nermonters have au excellent
opportunity, however to witness the opera
tion Of tue Mckinley tariff upon the Cana
dian border and 10 study its effects in detail,
and tho pronounced attitude of the conven-
ton on this issue will carry hope and inspi-
ration to protectionists all over this broad
land.
a gratifying and encouraging feature OF
tho convention was the prominent part
taken in the proceedings by the young men
OF tho party. They may have appeared
someWh hat aggressive in some instances in
demanding recognition, but aggressiveness
is a quality which all admire and which is
especially necessary il a political campaign,
and the full recognition of the younger
element promises well for the future of the
| party. 1t is sound policy to have young
mon in training for leadership while the
older leaders are yet in the harness ard it
will no longer be possible 10 charge the re-
| publican party III Nerm mt with failing

The impetus received by the Vermont re-
pubicans as result of the convention can
not fail to have an invigorsting aud far

they deserved it by keeping the campaign
