IN 4 FISHING Port.
Down by the sea-wall going,

Down by the sea-wall going,
Where the bare-legged babies play,
Where the tides are always flowing,
And the dories rock all day,
Over the edge of tho breaker,
Far out across the bay.
White acre after acre
You see the foam -wreaths play.
White as the foanl-wreaths flying
Between the blue and the blue
The sails of the ships are lying,
Smitten by sunshine through
Till the darkness falls and the shadows
Slip on from Sky to sky,
And over the dim sea-mcadows
The winds begin to sigh.
And the stars in their shrouds Of sorrow
Drown slowly spark by spark,
While the glittering surges borrow
Their glimmer OF ghOstly dark,
Aud the brow Of The storms pale anger
Leans up the sea, and hark
What voices and cries aud clangOr
Leap out OF the deep and dark.
Then with heavenly soft erasure
OF all the ruin and rack,
| The morning with rose and with azure
Sweeps DER the tempest track.
And, the glass by wan hands lighted
From house-top and window crack,
The wild OF the wave is sifted
| For the sail that comes not back.
For the wife forsakcs her pillow
For the phantom that shoreward crceps,
| And the lad feels the call OF the billow
Cry to him while he sleeps.
Apart OF the mighty tillage
That death the deathless rcaps,
| The heart Of the fishing village
Beats out on the sunlit dccps.

armed Intervention.


armed intervention.
After long consideration and full
debate, Congress placed on record its
opinion that the Cuban revolution is
not riot but public war, and that
the governmental organization which
placed armies in the field, too power
full tn be overcome by the Spanish
army, is entitled to the rights OF bel
ligerancy. But in the face Of all this
the President remained pacific spec.
tator Of Spanish atrocities and whole
sale slaughter. Passed obedience to
his will has fed his arrogance, until he
thinks his will Is the law OF the land.
His stealthy efforts to subjugate a
free government in the Sandwich
Islands and to restore licentious wO-
man to the throne was unamerican,
and this sentiment was carried still
further in his acquiesancc Of the out
rageous invasion and robbery Of the
Republic Of Nicaragua by the British
government, and again in his effort to
surrender the Monroe doctrine by an
open proposition to the British mon
archy to extend itself by purchase
into Venezuela. The Presidents de-
fance of public opinion and his inhu-
manity toward Cuban insurgents is
without precedent in this country.
He has had daily reports Of the viola
lation of the treaty Of 1870, the butch
cry of American citizens and the de-
struction OF their property. These re-
ports have not only come from news
paper correspondents, but they have
come from representatives OF this
government stationed on the island.
The President knows that Spain sent
Gen. Weyler to take command Of the
army in Cuba on account of his fond
ness for human slaughter. He knows
that Weyler was Outlawed in Spain
from respectable society and that his
name is synonymous with fraud, and
who has been on all occasions inhu-
man in his treatment to others; who
is such IA reprsbate that to describe
him would sicken the imagination OF
the Vlest thought and exhaust in
vectives. He is pusllanimous in war,
inhuman in peace, forbidden in morals
and infamous in all his acts.

st. Louis Republic.

St. Louis Republic.
One of the greatest curiosites in
the United States, or in the world,
perhaps, is the wonderful ledge uf ice
which exists, even In the midst of the
hottest summer, in Scott county, Va.
This natural ice house is situated on
the north side of Stone mountain and
about six miles from the mouth OF a
small stream known as Stoney creek.
The marvel is said to have been known
to at least one of the earlier settlers,
a Mr.. Dunridge, who it is alleged, dis
covered it while deer hunting away
back in 1880. Owing to the fact that
the land on which it was situated
could not be bought, Mr.. Dunridge
positively refused to tell Of the where
abouts OF the ice ledge, aud only visit
ed the place when it was absolutely
necessary to obtain supply to be used
in case of sickness.
The old man died many years ago,
and from that time until 1893 the To-
cation of Dunxidge's ice mine was un-
known, the old gentleman having
never even taken his own family into
the secret.
In the year last mentioned, however,
party of herb diggers visited the un-
frcquented region contiguous to Stone
mountain and were fortunate enough
to rediscovcr the lost ice mine.
During two or three months in the
middle OF summer the ice is only pro-
tected from the suns rays by thick
growth of moss. The formation of
the ice layer is similar 10 that OF a coal
vein, being thin in some places and
u thicker in others, the average thick
ness being about four feet. Persons
Of some scientific attainmcnts who
have visited the place for the purpose
of studying the wonder say it has the
appearance Of having been there since
the time of the ice age, which the
geolOglsts talk so much about. An
other plausible theory is that some
where beneath the bed is situated a
great natural laboratory where either
is constantly formed and expelled, and
that the process Of freezing is now
constantly going on. Whatever view
Is taken it is one Of the greatest
0 natural wonders the State affords.

There is a very pretty custom III the
imperial family of Germany which
dates from time immemoriaL On the
birthday of one Of the royal children the
empress goes through the stock of toys
which has been accommodating since the
child's last birthday and sends all, ex-
cept a few special favorites, to the sick
children in hospitals. The present kali
serln, who is the most motherly of wom-
en-, has paid special attention to the
custom. and on the occasion of little
Princess Victoria Louise's birthday,
which occurred few days ago, her
majesty packed with her own hands a
large case of dollies. picture books and
little dishes--all in fair state of pres
ervatioD-and had them sent of to the
little sufferers. The sick children are
always told who sends the presents, and
in past years this has resulted in the
saving of some curious and interesting
relics. In this way the battered tin sol
diers which amused the childhood of
old Kaiser William have been saved

Barbarous Treatment Of Song Bird by
the serapple Eaters.


PHILADELPHIA is the only city in the
world where the reedbird can he found
In state Of 0verrunning obesity, ami
the only place where it can be cooked to
perfection. In New York the French
cooks conceal its delicate toothsomeness
in rich dressing. There they know as
little about reedbirds as they do about
terrapin, scrapple and pepper pot. There
was given in this city one dinner IN
which reedpirds were served IN Is dlf-
ferent forms. Among the courses were
soup made from reedbirds, reedbirds
stuffed with Blue Point oysters, reed
birds placed inside a followed potato
and roasted, reedbirds stuffed with herb
filing and baked, reedbiIds stewed
with fresh mushrooms, reedbiras split
and broiled-an abominable practice, by
the way; reedbirds saute, and seem
ing pie, from which, when the crust
was lifted, twQ dozen reedbirds few

But. after all, there is only one way
to cook ard eat the succulent reedies--
sautel Select birds which have little
clumps of yellow fat on both sides Of
the part last over the fence. Place them
in a saucepan--or. better still. a chatting
dish-with plenty of the best butter,
salt, black pepper, and plentiful sprin-
Killing of paprika-the sweet Hungarian
pepper which nowadays can be found IN
any first class grocery. They must not
be split and their heads must not be re-
moved. Cook them for five OF six min
utes, according TO the size OF the bird
and the heat Of the fire, but do not al
low the yellow fat to become Drowned.
Nothing could be simpler, and yet few,
very few, cooks can prepare the reedbird
without destroying its toothsomeness.
There is an art also in the eating of
his daintiness, but it can only be APP
piled to birds of the character and pre-
pared in the manner described above.

The mediation of the elder brother
was kindly and skillfnl, and for time
the first consul seemed softened by the
memories of his own and his brothers.

the figure of the Prince of Condo. But
other feelings prevailed. The brothers
had differed about Lucien's marriage
and the question of descent if the con-
sular power should become hereditary.

Josephine's fearful entreaties for mercy

The Phoenix has the following to say of
the enterprising firm Of Durham Bros
which has stores in Brattleboro and Bel
lows Falls.
Durham Brothers have leased the two
floors above their stores in Hooker block,
and the whole establishment will be con-
nected, contract having been closed
yesterday with the Springfield Foundry
company for putting in an elevator. The
work of digging the well will begin today
and the elevator will be running in about
three weeks. This will give Durham
Brothers two stores on three floors, in ad-
dition to two Easements. The wholesale
business of the firm was made seperate
branch year ago and it has been so sue
cessful as to call for the present increase,
which will give Brattleboro by far the
largest shoe store in Vermont. Durham
Brothers came to Brattleboro IL years ago.
At that time two men did all the business
of the concern. Now Is hands will be
employed in the stores here and at Bellows
Falls. This growth is one which has been
brought about by enterprise, square deal
ing, and correct business methods. Dun
ham Brothers have reason to be proud OF
their achievements and the business men of
Brattleboro and Bellows Falls will con-
graduate them heartily on their latest ex-
tension, -si.--
