MISCELLANY.
HIS LAST VOYAGE.

Into the silent night We sped,
With back before and black astern.
Iauhd the bows n mighty churn
Boiled the foam, and aft 1t led
Into the silent night.
Clio. c we sat by the helm, and smoke
Turned in our pipes to fire. The blast
Whipped the shrouds on the creaking mast.
No one moved while the captain spoke.
Close We sat by the helm.
This is the night, my boys" he said,
"When sailors, clad In their grave clothes,
rise,
Stir, with the brine In their CLASSY eyes,
Bidding us pray for the sea swept dead.
This is the night, my boys.
"Bravest of hearts may quail, 'tis so,
When some poor fellows dying cry
Rings aloud from the depths that lie
Clicked with sea wreck there below,
Bravest Of hearts may quail.
"Ah, my boys, | know the note,
Tolled by he waves in the dark unseen,
Across The water cold and green,
Rung from the reef bells rusty throat.
Aye, my boys, | know.
pray, good lads, for the dead"-hc sighed,
just as the bell rang low and clear.
Quick came the boom of breakers near
Then we struck, as the captain cried,
pray, good lads, for the dead"

The Enoampment of the Militia.

The encampment Of the Georgia militia
for this year came TO an end yesterday.
The different military organizations that
took part in it know now great deal
more Of the duties of soldiers than they
did a few weeks ago, and they have a
higher appreciation of the benefits of
discipline. They are better soldiers for
their camp experience, and if they should
be called upon for assistance by the state
they would be able TO render better
service.
The idea that prevailed when the en-
campment was first established that no
work was done and no benefits were re-
ceived has been shown to be erroneous.
As 4 matter of fact, the camp is not
place for play. 1t is place for work, as
those who have spent ten days there have
found out.
The. military organizations of the diff
ferept states are not yet appreciated at
their full worth, but they are beginning
TO be. The demand for their services are
becoming more frequent, and the Deepen
dence upon them is becoming greater.
Within the last month at least half a
dozen states have called portions of their
militia into service. The civil authori-
ties could not have maintained order
without their help.
In proportion as there is demand for
their services the necessity for preparing
them for the duties of soldiers will be
understood. This state, as well as other
states, will, there is reason to believe, be
more liberal in the future IN max
ing appropriations for encampments.
This state does very little in that
direction now, and what she does
she does grudgingly. She cannot
help seeing, however, from recent events
in other states that it would be unwise to
give no announcement to her military
organizations

President moBride's Indifference.

I According to our dispatches yesterday,
/ MIR Mcbride, the president of the coal
! miners organizations, doesn't care
whether the miners accept the settlement
/ he has negotiated or not. He said he had
done the oest he could for their interests,
but that it was their privilege to refuse to
ratify the agreement he had made for
them.
President Mcbride found it an easy
matter TO get the miners TO obey when he
ordered a strike, but he does not find it so
easy to get them to follow his lead when
he declares the strike of. He did not APP
parently fully understand the character
of the men for whom he acted a very
large portion of them are ignorant
Hungarians and Italians, and they
have local leaders who have very little
respect for law, life or property. They
cannot or viii not understand that their
chief officer, Mcbride, has done the best
that could be done for them. They insist
upon their original demands ana threaten
to commit all sorts of lawless acts if these
demands are not granted. President Nc
Bride cannot control them. They were
willing to follow and obey him as long as
he did what they wanted done, but when
he exercised his own judgment for their
good they repudiated him.
1t will not be disputed that they have
a right to quit work, or to refuse to re-
turn to work except on their own terms,
but the point has been about reached
where lawless acts will not be tolerated.
In all Of the various coal sections where
the settlement has not been accepted the
patience of the authorities is about ex-
hausted. The destroying of mining prop
erty and the burning of railroad bridges
have aroused a feeling of hostility to the
rioting strikers that will show itself, if
the lawless acts are not discontinued,
in way that will make the strike most
memorable one. The authorities have
been extremely patient, hoping that
satisfactory settlement would be effected.
They are not sympathizing with either
the strikers or the mine operators. Their
duty is to preserve the peace and protect
property. If they cannot accomplish
their object by conservative means they
Will adopt radical ones, and public senti-
ment everywhere will uphold them.
