ALL SOUND HIS PRAISES.
John Sherman's Tribute to the Sterling
Integrity of President Cleveland.


Integrity of President Cleveland.
Praise from the enemy is praise indeed,
and the following words of that leading
Republican partisan, John Sherman,
eulogistic Of Cleveland, shows in what
regard the Democratic President is held
by his most bitter opponents:
81 am now an old man." said Senator
John Sherman, "and, perhaps, ! have
taken on the narrow-mindness of age.
1t is hard for me to believe that any
Democrat can be patriot and il is not
easy for me to see perfect goodness in
one of Democratic persuasion. But no
one,n COZ ii lued Senator Sherman, in q
voice of i'm pressive gravity, mo one can
view the conduct Of Grover Cleveland
without being convinced of the great
ness and goodness of a man. His
integrity, his fearlessness, his gifts of
mind must be PLAN to any one not ut
terly blinded by partisanship. Cleve-
land is, perhaps, the broadest-minded
man that ever sat in the Presidents
chair. Beyond any of his predecessors
he mas the courage and the faculty of
pushinga all cabal and intrigue asideand of
addressing himself directly to the people.
Friends, personal following, party, are
nothing to him as compared to the well
fare of the people. With my natural
distrust of all Democrats l might be
tempted to look upon this phase Of
Cleveland's conduct merely as a bit Of
theablest of politics, but in honesty | mus
admit that | have watched this man ii
all the crises OF the national life il
which he has lad a part, and l canno
shake off the conviction of his superl
abilities and his magnificent patriotism.

MISS N.4NoY,s GoWM.


In days when George the Third was King,
And ruled the Old Dominion,
And Law and Fashion owned the sway
OF Pariaments opinion,
A good ship brought across the sea
a treasure fair and fine
Miss Nancy's gown, from London town,
Cut in the last design.
The pleated waist from neck to belt
Scarce measured half span
The sleeves, like balloons at the top,
Could hold her feather fan;
The narrow skirt with bias gore,
Revealed an ankle neat,
Whene er she put her dainty foot
From carriage step TO street.
By skilful hands this wondrous gown
OF costliest stuffs was madei MI
Cocoons of France on Antwerp looms
Wrought to embossed brocade, N II
! Where violets and roses sweet
In blooming beauty grew,
| As il young May were there Away,
And June and April too.
| And from this bower of delight
Miss Nancy reigned Queen;
| Nor one disloyal heart rebelled
In all her wide demesne.
| The noble House of Burgesses
Forgot its fierce debate i.Ht
| Ger rights of Crown when Nancy's gown
| Appeared in halls of state. Il
Through jocund reel. or measured tread
OF stately minuet,
Like fairy vision shone the bloom
OF rose and violet, -.- =,
As hand in hand with Washington,
The hero of the day,
The smiling face and nymphlike grace
OF Nancy led the way.
A century since that gay time
The merry dance was trod
Has passed, and Nancy long has slept
Beneath the churchyard sod;
Yet on the brocade velvet gown
The rose and violet
Are blooming bright as on the night
She danced the minuet.

THE THREE ROBBERS.

Riddle.


They were three robbers; aye.
And they robbed a red, red rose;
And they came from out the sky,
And they went where no man knows.
One came--a robber bold
And sable coat he wore,
And a belt of dusty gold,
And he robbed her treasure-store;
One came when the day was young,
And rent the curtain gray
OF mist that round her hung,
And he stole her pearls away;
One came when the day was dead,
And no one saw him pass;
And he caught her petals red
And threw them upon the grass.
Three robbers bold were they,
And they robbed red. red rose;
And they came and went away,
And whither-no man knows.

Washington, ID. c., Sept. 9.-Presi
dent Cleveland absolutely refuses to
consent to grant any concessions in the
silver fight. More than this, he will
not promise to agree to any recogni
ton of silver even should the repeal
bill be passed
This is the sum and substance of his
position as reported by senators who
had conference with him yesterday.
1t renewed the confidence Of the
friends Of unconditional repeal, who as
sert their unWayering faith in the final
passage Of the measure.
The publication of the feeling of com
promise that was i'll the air led q good
many southern senators to hope and
believe that perhaps the crowns of
thorns which, as one of them said yes
terday, they have been asked to wear,
might be lifted from their yeXed and
anxious brows.
The thorough debate i'll the senate
IS arousing the people Of their sec
ton, and letters are beginning to pour
in appealing to them to stand out
against the proposed legislation.
Aware of this condition, they waited
with eager Interest the report from the
president. When the latters position
became known, it caused temporary
cessation Of the compromise talk
With the understanding that the
president is upon the platform of 'un-
conditional repeal or nothing" the sen
atOrS have settled themselves down
for d long siege.

IN THE WOODS AT NIGHT.
Sights and Sounds Enjoyed by People
on Tenting Holiday.

Under a canvas roof in the woods at
night the first sense that responds to
the changed conditions is that of hear
ing, says the Minneapolis journal.
Thousands of insects join in the Or
chestration which throbs and beats
through the darkness. Every foot of
ground and leaf and tree is alive. AS
far as the ear can reach the Shrill
throbbing life makes itself heard. 1t
Expresses the ear as a brilliant color
does the eye. Translated into color,
it is like yellow and purple waves Of
light running into prospective. The
sound gives as distinct sense Of hap
piness III the world as the purring of
a cat or the cooling Of a dove, but, I'M
like them, it has triumphant tone.
1t conveys the impression of world
happy and well arranged-of loving
hearts and happy voices. The sense
that is the second to respond to tent
life at night is that of sight. In the
darkest midnight the stars filter light
through the canvas, very filmy, nebu-
lous light, but plainly discernible.
When the moon shines the tent is filed
With a glow like that of etherealiZed
apple blossoms The shining air tastes
as if it were distilled in the cisterns
Of the heavenly spaces. The tired lungs
breathe its balm gratefully.
The whole impression of night in a
tent is that God is God, and ais well
in his world and that universal peace
and happiness reign. Sometimes it
thunders wildly, the rains beat against
the canvas, the lightning twists off the
oak trees and the winds make the can
vas crash and pound. But these expert
ences are only incidents and are so
umfrequent that they serve to accen-
tuate the other side by the doctrine of
contrasts.
