JACKSONVILLE, FLA. Nov. 3O.-An-
other phase of the factional anti-Call
fight in the county was brought TO light
to-day in the refusal Of State Treasurer
Triaye to receive some two thousand
dollars collected by County Collector
Johnson, in this DuvaD county, and for
warded last week. Triaye took the ground
that, as Johnson was removed by the
Governor in October. all taxes collected
by him since then were illegally collected,
and the citizens were liable for a second
payment. The collectors money was
therefore returned. Johnson has refused
to deliver the office 10 +. W. Gillen, the
Governors a%ppointee, and Fleming has
threatened extreme measures.

THE LITTLE NEST.

BY MRS. MARIA PEYDLEToN KENNEDY.
One day we cut the baby's hair, such pretty,
fluffy rings,
And laid it tenderly away, among our precious
things;
Twas ruddy gold aud yellow now golden and
now red
a very aureole it made around the babys
head
One day we sought the baby's hair-'twas all
that was our own,
For the baby had gone up to Heaven, and we
were left alone;
And as we kissed the pretty red, with all its
glints Of gold,
The wild west wind came frolcking and
snatched it from our hold.
We searched in vain. o wild west wind =
where is the baby's hair?
Out thro' the open casement,-up the sun
ny air
Away and away it wandered, flying on golden
wings
Up and away in the sunshine with other beau
tiful things.
A storm came out of the heavens and laid the
flowers low;
When it had passed a bird we saw huttering
to and fro,
And deep in the honeysuckle's heart shone a
CLEAN of goldenred--
Twas little nest, and twas softly lined with
the curls from the baby's head
And I thought of the little things on
wings" that "bear our souls to Heaven,
And | prayed as l never prayed before that
my sins might be forgiven.
And the mother bird still keeps her nest, sit
ting with brooding wings;
But the baby is up in the sunlight with all
Gods beautiful things!

He Hasn't Any Doubt.

Can Cleveland carry New York? Sen
ator Hill is on record as saying that had
the campaign of four years ago been
prolonged fortnight the ex-president
would have won. The senator was
speaking in Albany two days after the
last presidential election and he said:
'The principle of tariff reform has only
met with temporary defeat. Sooner or
later it will ultimately triumph in this
country President Cleveland and the
Democratic party were right and de-
served to succeed. The argument was
with us and two weeks longer of discus
sion would have given us the victory"
The discussion has now been going on
for nearly four years, and if the governor
of New York believed what he said then
he cannot have much doubt now con-
cerning the triumph of the Democratic
host of next November.-Springfield Re
