"The Heart Knoweth Its Own Bitterness."
Oh, sad sweet words, whose ceaseless echoes
roll
Across life's waste Of anguish and distress,
Since We were uttered. every human soul
Hath owned your truthfmnesst
Ay, "the heart knoweth" all it hath TO bear
The slow-crushed hopes that die with long do
lay,
The heavy burden, and the daily care
That steals our strength away.
II knoweth, when we kneel beside our dead
In grief too deep for tears to set II free,
The aching desolation and the dread
OF all the days TO be.
II knoweth, when we own ourselves bereaved
BY worse than death-the sorrowful defeat
The sense Of shame for having been deceived
BY dreams so vainly sweet
Itknoweth, too, when we have tried our strength
And tasked endurance TO its utmost strain,
The wounded pride with which we see at length
Our work has been in vain.
Yes, "the heart lSnoweth its own bitterness"--
The gloom of doubt the midnight Of despair;
And words are all unmeaning to express
The weight that each must bear.
But one there is who lSnoweth ev'ry CROSS
Who owns our weakest struggles for the right
And leads us still through bitter grief and loss
To Heav'n's unclouded height.

ing. 1t is stated none of the worship
ers suspected the mans identity, nor
thought for an instant that one of the
foulest charges made against man was
hanging over his mead, a charge which
caused him to flee the United Kingdom
over year ago
He was a member of Parliament for
Belfast when the crime was attributed to
him and he fled to the Continent, claim
ing he was victim of a conspiracy.
He was expelled from the British House
of Commons upon his failure to return
and face his accusers and is now fugi-
tive from justice.
Nothing definite was heard from him.
but it was given out that he was in
Spain or France.
A correspondent, it is said, introduced
himself at the close of the meeting, and
accompanied Mr.. de Cobain home Mr.
| de Cobain asserted his innocence of the
charges, and said that he is preparing
! papers showing that he was the victim of

New York, Received In London Earth
quake in South Germany.
LONDON, Aug. 10.-The House Of Com
mons was crowded TO its full capacity
before the business of the day was com
menced, as it was expected that Mr..
Gladstone would resume the debate on
the address in reply to the Queens speech.
His appearance in the House was the sig
nal for ringing cheers from his adherents
on the floor and his admirers in the gal
leries.
In the matter of Egan, the Invincible
sentenced to Imprisonment under the
Grimes act, Matthews, Home Secretary,
replied to a query that he had again con
sdered the case but could not hold out
hopes of Egan's speedy release.
Mr. Gladstone said there was just cause
of complaint against the Government for
having embarked the House in an utterly
barren and anomalous debate. Hitherto
the Queens speech had always admitted
that the result of a general election was
binding and conclusive. ''Now" added
Mr.. Gladstone, eve find the decision of
the country challenged by the Govern
ment and this House has met to discuss
it does not know what" Conservative
and Liberal Unionist cheers
Mr.. Gladstone went on to say that the
criticisms of the other side on the compo-
sition of the Liberal majority struck at
the root of the Constitution. Should the
idea be generally adopted it would be a
blow at Parliament and at the nation.
The Liberal majority doubtless had Irish
votes for basis, but under the circum-
stances this was rather a recommenda-
tion than ground for assailing the right
of such majority to represent the people.
Mr.. Balfour followed Mr.. Gladstone in
a speech.
He maintained that the House had a
right to know before intrusting the Gov
ernment to the Liberals what their policy
was, especially when the party upon
which Mr.. Gladstone relied was broken
into at least three divisions, each owning
a different leader
Referring to the policy of the present
Government, Mr.. Balfour said that that
would be judged by historians. Assured
as to what the verdict would be, he would
neither anticipate nor defendit.
Mr.. Balfour put forth all his powers Of
sarcasm. He taunted Mr.. Gladstone
with describing his Irish policy as moral
when it was really and essentially i'm
moral. England was partner of Ire
land in the union, and certainly had a
right to a hearing in regard to the pro
posed dissolution of the union. The in
coming government must describe the
meaning of the phrase used by Gladstone
about administering law in Ireland in
syTnpothv with tbe opiuione of the pOD1-
muuty-whether it would mean the
restoration in defiance of the rights of
property of 1900 evicted tenants.
Several other members joined in the
debate, after which the House adjourned.

THE cholera holds its own in Russia
despite the efforts being made to ar
rest its progress. This is due no doubt
in large measure to the filthy habits
of the people, their impoverished con-
dition, and their indisposition to be-
Iieve that the treatment given to them
by their medical advisers is intended
for anything else than their destruc-
ton. Under such circumstances it is
readily understandable why the
plague holds its own.

IT would seem as though the iguor-
ant Russians had made up their minds
to give the cholera the full benefit of
their aid, they having destroyed the
hospital at Makavooka and driven the
doctors away. While something is
due to their stupidity, their blind
bigotry takes from them much of the
sympathy they would otherwise re-
ceive. 1t is hardly possible that such
insane proceedings would find toler-
alton in any other country than Rus
sia.
