WORDS FROM THE SAGES.

FoR where we love is home, home that our feet may leave but not our hearts. Jean Ingelow.
 Do THE duty which lies nearest to you. Every duty which is bidden to wait returns with seven fresh duties at its back.-Kingsley.
 IT is an old proverb that he who aims at the sun. to be sure will not reach it, but his arrow will fly higher than if he aimed at an object on a level with him self-Hawes.
 EVERY vice and folly has a train of secret and necessary punishment. If We are lazy, we must expect to be poor; if incorporate, to be diseased; if lux urious, to die prematurely.-
 IT is the most momentous question woman is ever called upon to decide whether the faults of the man she loves are beyond remedy and will drag her down. or whether she is competent to be his earthly redeemer and lift him to her own level-O. ". Holmes.
 THERE are people who understand one another at once. When one soul meets another it is not by pass word, nor by hailing sign, nor by mysterious grip that they recognize. The subtleSt free masonry in the world is this free masonry of the spirit.-Edward Eggles-

THE experiment of the Ohio demo- crats with free silver platform not only reduced their own vote l2I ,l3 8 compared with that of 1892, but sent up the popu'ist vote from 14S52 to 49,4S4. It is a painful admission 10 make, but one is compelled 10 ac- knowledye ye that the cause of free sil- yer is rapidly declining, and mono metsllism taxing its place. It is simply s repetition of history. The aggregated wealth of the nation is working the downfall of what was s few years ago the best government under the sun.

Governor Hughes pardoned eight prisoners yesterday out of the peni- tentiary, and commuted the sentences of four other. or the latter, Wilson Douglass was one His sentence was commuted from life to fou, teen years, which will leave him but about five years more to serve. Douglass has been a tiusty during his term of con fnement, and at one time saved the life of the superintendent during an outbreak. The crime for which he was convicted was a cold blooded one in the extreme, and no credit was gwen him upon that score. Douglass, II he lives to see his freedom, will be dependent for support upon his friends, AS his age is such that he can not support himself.

"RAILRoADED TO PRISON Is not con- sidered a reslity in these days of just ice, but that there are men in the Yuma penitentiary who have been sent there bv false witness an con- spiracy is not doubted by those wao have made a study of the circum- stances through which they were sent there. The pardoning power which l. placed in the hands Of a governor would. il taken away, destroy the mos sacred oi the liberties granted us by the constitution. While in many cases the p.'donilg power is abused in the hands of careful executive cannot but be an instrument Of justice and mercy.
