It was under distinguished patronage, and the attendance was very large and fash ionable. Excellent arrangements were made for the comfort of the company by the com mittee, and the room and corridors were tastefully decorated by several ladies, who kindly gave their assistance. The music supplied by the band of the York and Lan- caster Regiment, free of charge, was all that could be desired, and dancing was kept up until an advanced hour this morning The ball opened with quadrlle, the Mayor dancing with Mrs. Buckle, and the Admiral with Lady Harley-Scott. The following were amongst those present: The Mayor of Cork (Councillor Meade); Sir A. R. Warren, Bart; Mr. A. J. B.

The Montgomery Advertiser is gold paper, and says it is Democratic. The Toledo, O., Blade is a gold paper, and says 1t is Republican. They both use the same fallacious arguments in regard to the yellow metal. If one is Democratic so is the other or they are both Repub- lican. As for policies there is no differ ence. The only existing difference is in latitude or location. Pay your money and take your.-Sheffield Reaper The same remark may be applied to the silver monometallists. Many papers calling themselves Democratic are apostles of the 16 to l doctrine, while some of the foremost avowed Republicans, both pol iticians and editors, are of the same creed. How's this?

The religious editor of the Louisville Courier-Journal has brought the Bible to bear on the bloomer question-Deuter- onomy, xxi, 5: "The woman shall not wear that which pertaineth to man." But if this text is held to apply to modern times, how about the vests, collars and scarfs the women now wear?-Ex. The Bible has been used to locate tile politi- cal heaven, and now an enterprising brother brings it in as an authority on fashions. However we will not call our brother to order, although we never heard of man who wore boomers.

Joe Blackburn is one of the most at tractive persons in public life, a whole souled, generous fellow, with a ready cordiality and warmth of stanch fidel- ity that make him innumerable friends and hold them to him. He is an eloquent and gifted orator, brilliant fellow with a big brain, but oonstitutionally opposed to using it in that careful, unremitting toll that can alone make useful achieve ments. "Our Joe" is companionable and witty and lovable but he is dead wrong dangerously cratic on the silver ques- tion.-HarrOdsburg Democrat. Was 1t Shakespeare who inquired what is in a name?

BY Rev. John +. Won Herrlich.
IF we knew the trials and sorrows
OF the friends we meet each day
If we saw the clouds and darkness.
Where the sunbeams seldom stray;
Then, perchance, our better feelings
Would with kindly thoughts be stirred,
And instead of Sights and harShness,
We would give some kindly word.
If we knew how some kind greeting
Would some blighting sorrow hide
Could we see the hidden currents.
Where there flows the pent up tide
Of the souls sad thoughts and feelings,
Would we not in love bestow,
Kindly words and gentle greetings,
Both alike to friend and foe.
Could we see the fears and doubtingS,
Which assail some souls with dread
Could we see their cherished planniSS
Broken-shattered---col and dead
Would we then keep back our friendship
Fail to give the loving word?
Would we fail TO know and ponder
God has marked and Heaven has heard.
Let us then with hands so willing.
And with hearts both just and true,
Try to practice Christ's sweet teaching
Moved by love in all we &C,
Let us then from morn till shutdown.
Deeds of love and kindness SOW;
Sorrowing hearts will cheer and brighten,
God will bless and Heaven will know.
