ETERNAL SILENCE.

Dead in your coffin lying,
Cold lips OF an ashen hue,
Brow OF marble as peaceful
AS cloudless sky Of blue.
Lips, oh, so cold ana ashen,
You never more move to tell
Ifyour spirit eyes have opened
To light Of heaven or hell
White lips that once were ruby.
Deaths secret so well you keep
That the living heart misgiyes
Lest you sleep the endless sleep.

WASHINGTON, Nov 3.-Attorney General
Miller has issued a circular to all United
States marshals, directing them "to take
general charge anG direction of the execu-
tion of the statutes of the United States
touching the appointment of supervisors
of elections and special deputies" He
quotes from the case of Burns, Coleman
and Bowers, reported in 10 Otto, 37l, and
lucidly exhibits the law. Finally he says
that section 2022 Revised Statutes United
States, requires that the marshal and his
general and special deputies shall preserve
order at the places of registration and the
polls; support and protect the supervisors
of election x 4 and special deputies
have the right to be and remain in all
places where they can best discharge their
duty whether these places be inside or
outside the guard rail- He closes his
letter as follows:
In the language of the statute of the
United States, section 2021: 1T is the
duty of the supervisors in their respective
election districts of different precincts to
be present on the day of registration and
on election day, then occupy and remain
in such position from time to time,
whether before or behind the ballot

Republicans Confident.

New YORK, Nov. 3.-The Republican
national committee this afternoon gave
out an analysis of the registry districts
of the city of New York, which in part
says: "One of the most important facts is
that the registration for 1892 below 10th
street, or in that part of town where the
Democrats are specially strong, is 3,30l
less than it was in 1888. Above 10th
street the registration this year stands
149,363, against 122,27l, an increase of
27O49, or 22.12 per cent. The entire in
crease in registration, therefore, is above
4Oth street. Allowing for all possible
loss, it is reasonably certain that 115,00O
Republican votes will be cast as compared
with 100000 in 1888. The full vote of the
city will not be more than 100000. If
the Democrats obtain $50 per cent of the
total estimated they will be doing un-
commonly well on the situation as it
stands to-day. This will give them a
vote of 10000 and 9 plurality of $4,000,

A LECTURE.

Mrs. Williams lecture yesterday
was upon George Eliot's works, or
rather upon that principle which
more or less influenced all her
writings except her earliest.
These earliest works, written
from the heart at the dictates of q
genius as yet uninfuenced by con-
science, while they are not, from a
literary standpoint, her greatest,
are more brilliant, more touching
and more satisfactory.
The principle which so influenced
George Eliot was, Mrs. Williams
explained, that the individual con-
science, as opposed to the general,
the public conscience, is always
wrong; that whatever the times
demand in the way Of individual
sacrifice must be made; that it was
right for Orestes to Kill his mother
for Jephtha and Agamemnon
to kill their daughters because
certain moods of religious thought
demanded it.
Mrs. Williams then, in q remark
ably convincing way, proved the
fallacy of this. The public con-
science changes; what it thought
right yesterday it pronounces
wrong to-day; SO that in living by
it's dictates there is much useless
sacrifice.
The individual conscience guided
by the supreme conscience-God,
is the only sure guide in life.
The unnecessary sacrifice of in
dividuals entailed by the working
of this mistaken principle in George
Eliot's writings explains the ex-
quisite pain given by so much
that she has written, and,
worse than the pain, certain dis
turbance of the moral sense-a
question of just what is right and
what is wrong.

ASTROLOGICAL.

In another column will be found
a short article by Mr.. F. NJ. Eng
llsh, giving some timely informa-
ton in regard to the conjunction
of the two planets which rule the
sky, Jupiter and Venus. What
this conjunction, at which the
moon assists, may portend, must be
left to the decision Of those more
deeply versed than we in the mys-
teries of astrolOgy. 1t cannot
surely be other than suspicious. If
our age were pre-copernican and
we shared the cheerful Pto-
lemaic concelt that the earth
and man were the centre of the
world system, it would be easy in
deed to imagine that the motions Of
the planets had special reference
to our local affairs. Then this con-
junction of loneliness would eX-
press the joy of the heavens at the
downfall Of Bowler, or the APP
preaching overthrow Of the pres
ent Cabinet. But the stars in their
courses no longer fight against
Sisera, Bowler and the other evil
doors. The sun never stan Dis still
in these degenerate days to give
delaying voters chance to come
to the polls and vote for Diliing-
ham, and the shadow on the dial
goes inexorably forward, never
back. Mortals are left to work out
their own salvation, with no aid
from conspiring heavens. Such are
the consequences of living in the
age of reason.
We may at any rate, without the
assistance Of Astrology, find in the
conjunction of the heavenly bodies
a symbol of peace after strife. In
the common admiration of this
beautiful display in the Western
heavens there is, at least, a bond of
sympathy between Reformers and
National Reformers, and possibly
even Liberal or two!
