The Raven.

The following poem was composed by
Mrs. Ladd, of Fairfield, the mother of
Mrs DIR. j. D. Cureton since the death of
the latters little son, Abner. Mrs. Ladd Is
about SO years of age and totally blind:
The Raven he sat on the window sill,
Inc sun shone bright, and the air was still,
lie saw the SMILE and he heard the sigh,
AS the busy, bustling crowd swept by.
The Raven said, What did he sayP
Time soGn will sweep them all away,
AS the world rolls on forever.
The Raven he flew.
The Raven he flew to the rich mans gate,
The Lord of all lay there in state,
What use were his untold bags of gold.
Time could neither be bought nor sold.
The Raven he said, What did he say2
Time takes men, not wealth away,
AS the world rolls on forever.
The Raven flew.
The Raven flew to the maiden's bower.
In beauty she sat, the bride Of an hour,
A deep sil lh arose from the heart unseen,
AS she softly whispered, "It might have
been"
The Raven whispered, bought anl sold.
But time will sever the chain of gold,
AS tue world rolls on forever
The Raven saw
Some struggling on for the worlds renown,
Some for wealth, some for q crown,
The path Of life was no child's play,
Thousands were crushed on its thorny way
The Raven said, What did he say?
Your longest life is but day,
Still the world rolls on forever.
The Raven said, man,
Why poison all the joys of life,
With discomfort, envy and strife2
The cry is wealth my path to line,
But who can say, tomorrow's mine.

Bursted ike DuUUics ia. ...-.--.
The Raven croakcd, man be wise,
Time sweeps all beneath the skies,
AS the world rolls on forever.
The Raven saw
Many among the mighty crowd
Who never had to Mammon how'd,
The aged, feeble, sick and poor,
Bless them as they leave their door.
The Raven said, blessing save,
Time takes them with you beyond the
grave,
AS the world rolls on forever.
The Raven saw.
He saw that never fading flower,
A gift to all, an earthly dover,
mothers love God gave it birth,
With the creation of the earth.
1t blooms as bright in dungeon walls,
AS in the palace stately halls,
Mid wealth or want, glory or shame,
A mothers love remains the same,
That holy love, man guard it well,
Its strength and power no tongue can tell
The Raven said, God gave it birth,
Time cannot take it from tho earth,
Let the world roll OH forever.

One of Their Papers Says They May Be An

NEW YORK, December Gan Ottawa
despatch to the Sun says: Public opinion
on this side of the line is being freely
canvassed just now, and those who a
year ago W ould hardly dare give express
sion to their views on thequestion of po-
litical union with the United States now
come out openly endorsing the move
ment. The Woodstock Sentinel, in dis
cussing the question, says:
1.-THE attempt to suppress by force
those who believe in political union
might be attended with inconvenience
and difficulty. When we are not able to
answer annexationists, but attempt to
put them down by personal violence,
their victory is won. The only way to
suppress the annexationists is to remove
the evils of which they justly complain -
The Bobcaygeon Independent says:
stThe subject of annexation has to be
discussed. It has passed the point
where it can be disposed of by calling its
advocates traitors. To attempt the
persecution of the annexationists is
only to advance their cause. By far the
largest half of the people of Ontario
hold strongly to the British connection
but the national policy has been forcing
the people in an opposite direction, and
unless a change is made in the condi-
lions Ontario will be annexed in job lots. "

excuse Yourself Graciously.

GxCuhS AOoIoClA OEtsC1Ouslys
Every lady has right to refuse her
self to friends when sickness, WEAKNESS
or some domestic duty makes it difficult,
impossible perhaps, to be at the time a
gracious and courteous hostess. The
message of refusal, however, can be so
worded that no person Of any common
sense or Judgment could feel offended.
"Mrs. Brown is engaged" is abrupt and
not to be recommended, but there are
many ways of making it more gracious.
"Mrs. Brown cannot receive today" is
simple, truthful and should offend no
one, as, if the maid delivers the message
at the door to each and all alike, it is
evident that no slight is intended.
Many ladies now have one day in the
week when they are sat home" This
arrangement becomes necessary in large
cities where ones circle Of acquaintance
is extensive and calling is matter of
ceremony. But the fact that lady sets
apart one day to receive friends is no ex-
cuse for instructing the maid to tell an
untruth to those who for some reason
call on another day, but it is reason
why those who call out of season have
no right to be offended when they are
told that s.Mrs. Brown is not receiving"

.PARKHURsT ON THE BENCH
watching the Trial of an Agent Accused
of Blackmail.

NEW YORK, December 6.-Rev. Chas.
Fl. Parkhurst, serene and with included
face. sat beside Police Justice Mcmahon
lie Tombs Court bench this morn
last.case of all was that of Chas.
srdner, chief of detectives for DR..
kharst's own society for the proven
s. Of crime, charged with bleeding a
ma the keeper of disorderly house,
sat OF two monthly payments OF $50
each for protection from arrest, and $l50
in a lump for saving her from an indict-
ment and conviction for violating the
law.
Dr.. Parkhurst did not sit judicially,
for he had already proclaimed his belief
that the arrest and prosecution of Car
diner, was a move on the part of Supt.
Byrnes and the police department
against his society, in retaliation for
their exposures of alleged police incom-
potency and dishonor.
Besides the police, eight orten citizen
witnesses were there to testify to some
part of the facts that are claimed as indiss
eative of Gardeners guilt. Lawyers
Frank Moss and Thad B. Kenneson Of
the executive committee of the Park
hurst society, were present to defend
Gardner. Inspector Mclaughlin said
that he had never seen more complete
case.
