ABRAM ]. RYAN.
When spring came Father Ryan bid
adieu to Wilmington, but promised to
return, D. ", for Easter Sunday. He
did not come-in the flesh; for he was
lying dead in Louisville, Kentucky-the
shell Of him.
They took his remains to Mobile for
burial and the children poured lapfulls
Of flowers upon his coffin until the grave
was filled with roses.

o poet-priest, dear friend.
Is this the endi
Couldst thou not stay?-
Couldst thou not wait. this side the Gate.
Till Easter day?
We hoped to see thy face
At the altar-place
On that third day."
When, we are told, Christs angel rolled
The stone away.
For visions came to thee
We might not see,
Or ken, it seems,
Till thy wing'd word our spirits stirred
Like prophets dreams.
FAREWELL Thy knell is rung,
Thy songs are sung
This side the veil;
But voices rise. far up the skies,
That cry: All Hail!
How winning was this man!
Samaritan,
Tender and wise.
His songs divine are oil and wine
From Paradise.
Though fragile from his birth
He loved the Earth,
And all good cheer
Mirthful and mild, at heart child,
'TwiXt smile and tear.
Yet was he fearless, too;
Dauntless all through.
In a priests stole
There lived and died, unterrifed,
A knightly soul!
Meath roses heaped on heap.
He lies asleep,
Sweetly at rest.
The gentle-hearted hath departed.
God knoweth best.

NEW YORK, Dec. 26-The first week
in the new year the greatest defensive
war craft in any navy of the world will
steam gayly out of the harbor on her
first ocean trip. She will go down the

The Puritan is unique in more ways

THE POETS SONG.

(On one occasion, while making a social
call, Father Ryan was requested by his
hostess to write poem in her album. He
sat down and in the course of an hour had
written, purely eXtempore, in fine delicate
ly traced handwriting, the following lines }
Where do poets find their song?
Anywhere and everywhere!
Ger the earth and through the air,
Forever, reader, and fore'er
Melodies, in unseen throng,
Move mysteriously along.
In virgin tones unwed to word
Pure as the breeze o'er the sleeping grass
Chaste as the rays that fold the flowers
That wake at the touch of Mays bright
hours
Wherever the sun or the shadows pass
Moves a music all unheard
Save to the poets listening heart;
For it's his heart, and not his ear,
That hears the songs none else may hear
His heart is finer than the art.
Not loud words, but timid' tones,
Sad as tears and soft as means
Sinking from, yet seeking speech
Come within the poets reach,
Thro his spirits dim-lit sky
Like a hearts half-breathed sigh
When a cloud Of grief drifts by
Moves the worldless music on,
And, ere all its notes are gone,
Sudden! lips aglow with fire
And lips unseen, as cold as death,
Breathe upon hlm-and the breath
Makes 'his heart living Tyre,
And suddenly the poet sings!
But his words are only wings
Only wings-and not the bird
That cannot be Gagged in word.
Just tone, or hals a tone,
He catches, but the song has flown
So swift and suddenly away!
Why? and whittier? who can say?
Nor I, nor you; but this is true:
That just as stars give us their light
But not themselves; so in its flight
A song leaves but shadow-tone
To mark the way its wings have flown.
Be sure no song comes ever back!
What bird would e'er retrace his track
To find a cage in which to pine?
Are not our rhymes but prison bars?
What are our songs but unseen stars
Seen only by poetic eye?
A star has never worn q chain
And earth hath never heard strain
In which song could e'er be bound.
For mind the song is not its sound.
Most think it is-but 1T is not;
A simple truth too oft forgot.
Your shadow sure is not yourself.
Your look Is surely not your eyes;
How do we see? All! who can say?
And yet the Near and Parkway,
And all the wide and wondrous skies
Meet in one point between our eyes.
How7 Who knows?-for every How
Has puzzled many a brain and brow.
And after all what Is word?

At Christmas-tide he was called to

A thought-as thought can ne'er be heard
Nor seen by any eye-I ween.
Words like shadows fall between
Two souls whose thoughts thus try to
reach
Each other thro' the wells Of speech.
And sure Thoughts shadow Is not thought:
1t is its symbol and its sign!
Only sound the speaker, sought,
Only a sound the hearer caught;
As far as the farthest star
Is from it's CLEANS around us here.
Still farther in our spirits are -
Our thoughts from words that reach the
ear.

WISDOM AND LOVE,

What might be done II men were wise
What glorious deeds. my suffering brother
Would they unite,
In love and right,
And cease their scorn for one another?
Oppressions heart might be imbued
With kindling drops of loving kindness,
And knowledge pour,
From shore to Shore e*
Light on the eyes of mental blindness.
All slavery, warfare, lies and wrongs.
All vice and crime might die together:
And wine and corn,
To each man born,
Be free as warmth in summer weather.
The meanest wretch that ever trod.
The deepest sunk in guilt and sorrow.
Might stand erect,
In self-respect,
And share the teeming world tomorrow.
What might be done? This might be done.
ana more than this. my suffering brother
More than the tongue
Fer said or sung,

Since this word-world of ours was young,
In any land or any tongue
In all the fullness of its notes,
With all Its keys and chords complete.
Without a break or jar or flaw.
Yet many sound our ears may meet
Many a fragment round us floats
But this is everlasting law:
We hear but fragments at the best.
When'er song flies from its nest
We hear but rustling of its wings
He knows this well who often sings;
And If the wings that rustic So
So sweetly In the songs sweet flight
Breathe forth so many tender sound
To soothe this weary world of woe
Heart-tossed by day-dream-tired by
Ali If the song that fed were found
With all its music in it-then
This haunted world of restless men,
Soul-touched, would listen, kneel and pray,
While each to each would softly say:
I'VE hear Gods voice, we never knewl
But oh! it is so sweetly true
That thro' the ages ali along
God waited for the grand, full song.
We hear what heaven long has heard
Gods mighty voice and loving word."

add that Senator Pettigrew is not

sen is well known to many of our
citizens, and he has a good reputa
ton in the community for truth
and fair dealing. What he says
may be taken as his honest convlc-
tion after careful consideration OF
the subiect-that the principles Of
the Republican party are the found
alton and strength of the nation,
while the populIst breaches ere
form" but practices it not, Fol
lowing is the letter:
Editor Dayllght--I have been a
popullst several years. Believing
that the populist party vas organ
lied Tor the purpose of reforming
and bettering u condition, /
Joined and enthusiastically support
I'd it, but after reading populist
papers for several years and care
fully noting their trend and general
character, | have come to the con
cluslon that they have no reform
whatever in view; nothing but Sc
curing Offices for a few of their
blatant and INSCRIPTIONS leaders,
and implanting in the heart of
every reader blind prejudice and
deadly hatred towards his country,
his government aud his fellowman.
Their malign.ty does not hesitaee
to SANDER and blaoken the state,
the country or town they may live
In, if by so doing they may abuse
their political opponents or per-
sonal enemies.
L rejoice that my township re.
deemed itself at the last election
from the stigma of II populist ma.
jorlty, and | hereby renounce, once
and forever, all allegiance to and
connection with the blind heresy
and debasing pestilence of populism
and will hereafter gladly support
the grand old Republican party that
stands up for an honest dollar, for
the dignity and enforcement of the
laws of the land, and protection for
the tollers of the nation.
The Republican party Of this
state hunted and imprisoned defaul
ter Taylor, and banished from the
state and into political oblivion it's
kellam. But the populists tried to
send their hail insurance swindler
to the United States senate, and
Scandinavian elevator thief they
tried to make governor and United
States senator, and finally made
him editor in chief Of their leading
state paper. All worship at his
shrine and call him "Rabbir'
''Rabbi!!" Licentious vagabonds

county. A person that has been
on trial for more crimes than any
