The Eafled Pessinlist.

I sat me down to write rhyme Of gloom.
All was in tucc for it; my temples throbbed;
In semidar1ness was my cherries room,
And through tic trees the sad breeze soughed
and Eobbcd;
My heart was burning with fancled woe;
Digestion waited not on appetite;
MY spirits caE.e in dull and sluggish flow;
Naught was there in the world that pleased
my sight.
Ny pen itself would not put down the thought
The pessimiStc thOught-that held my mind.
TRY as would the fancy flew uncaught.
Uncatchablc as any truant wind.
Yet wrote on, and when the rhyme complete
Stared boldly at me from the saffron page
found myself victim to defeat
I'd written this truly happy age!
IA said that in this life were more of good
Than wicked things: despite the heavy mist
OF present trial, those who understood
Life as it reallyis could not resist
The true conclusion, tried and guaranteed,
That we have many blessings: and no grief.
However much because Of 1t the heart may
bleed,
Has ever been without some sweet relief.
Alas! that l, disciple true of gloom
Philosopher of wee, should Ger confess
That joy upon this earth hath any room,
That mortals find here aught of happinessl
And yet, though seem faithlcss to my creed
In writing then that optimistic song,
! am not so. 1t proves its truth, indeed,
When even l. its follower, go wrong.

chief q most one year, and today 1t
is no stretch Of facts 10 state that
seventy five per cent Of the persons
assisting Mr.. Cleveland IN the ad
ministration Of public Affairs are
Republicans. In the departments at
Washington, fully ninety per cent
are Republicans; in the railway mail
service, fully eighty per cent are
Republicans In this state the
majority of United States marshals,
district attorneys, revenue collec.
tors, postotiice inspectors and post
masters are Republicans, thus
demonstrating practically to the
people the fact that this administra-
ton is Republican, being Demo
cratic only in name and in the fact
that a man elected by the people as
Democrat fila the chair of the
chief executive. If what was
designed by the people for Demo
cratic administration is administered
by Republicans what should the
administration be called?

INGALLS, IN THE DUMPS.

Ex-senator ingalls, vaticinates on the
situation in scriptural tone. He says that
chaos and anarchy are at hand that the
millionaire of to-day will presently occupy
the paupcr's hut; that foxes have holes.
and the birds Of the air have nests. but the
Colorado tramp has nowhere to lay his
head. The trouble is that after long
career in the Senate, over which body he
at one time presided. Mr.. ingalls, is now a
Statesman out of job" who lives by
writing sensational articles for Eastern
syndicates. He cannot reconcile himself
to such a cropper. He knows that he is as
bright as he ever was, that he IS at least
as spitefu!, and that he probably knows
more than he ever did and he cannot re-
sign himself to his decline and fall in the
rery zenith of his usefulness. 1t is his
own prospects In life that he surveys when
he sees nothing in the horizon but chaos
and disaster. 1t is his own black horo-
scope that he eyes when he sees the sky

would have great consequences if he could
take his party with him. but it by no

formerly Minister of Agriculture in Sails

nounced advocate of the double standard
and of reciprocity in tariff adjustment, but
he had only very partial following, and
the effect of tine movement has not been
marked in improving Tory prospects
politically. Mr. GOschen figures as the re-
doubtable mainstay OF Tory finance,

Randolph Churchill. nor any other promi-
nent man being at all so able in elucidat-
ing mysteries of money and exchange. A
plain declaration from Mr.. Goschen In

motives in his avowal. This may be taken
as an intimation that his attitude is not to

OCEAN RACING.

There still is little ocean racing left for
sailing ships, although the od-time clip
pers in the passenger trade, carrying a
cloud of canvas and manned by from forty
TO sixty men, have disappeared and given
place to steamers, which in their turn have
taken to racing with remarkable results
Five British ships leaving San Francisco
in Mach last were pitted against each
other on bets by the ca plains for the voyage
round the Horn to Queenstown. One Of
these will never reach port, having been
wrecked in the South Pacific, but the
others have all reported. and the PinmOre
carries off the chief prize Of $1,000. The
time. 115 days, is excellent sailing, but has
often been beaten. The modern sailing
vessel of iron or steel is OF nodded on the
finest lines, but is rather constructed for
great cargo capacity. A few weeks more
or less dc OF affect the price of cargo Of
wheat or coal, and the ship-owner gains
more by increased bulk Of cargo than he
would by the shortest voyage possible and
a consequent saving in wages and the con-
sumption of rations. 1t was otherwise
when there were passengers on the sailing
clippers or when sailing ships had the tea
some premium for the first arrival. Mar
velous passages were made in those days
because the vessels were designed with
careful attention to speed, and their cap
tains spread all the canvas their tall spars
would carry. Losses through repairs were
of slight account as long as the voyage was
good in time. But the ships of those DAYS
were of small tonnage compared with the
great craft now on tile deep. carrying from
5000 10 5000 tons, and the modern tendency
is to increase the dimensions. On long
voyages big sailing ships will always have
a place, but when the Nicaragua canal Is
open very large number will be dis.
placed by steamers. as in the case of the
China, Calcutta and Australian trade
through the Suez canal. The time will
come when even California wheat will be
sent to Europe by steamer. and then skip
