NEARING THE END.

Only six more days and the admins

an end,and what happy radiance it will
be to the American people without regard
TO party. In the inscrutabe mysteries of
Providence the nations of earth are some
times visited by war, famine and resti-
lence. The United States has L CT been
stricken, by any Of these curses; but il
has la5ored under Il disadvantage in hnv-
ing Grover Cleveland rs its chief eyecu-
tive officer that falls but little short of all
three of these. AS all things must cone
to an end, However, 50 must tho ripn of
the first and only Grover Cleveland, and
that it Is 50 near ut hand is matter for
profound congntnlation to the country
ut large. During his lease OF power he
has enjoyed in his own way all the nd
vantages that accrue ,therefrom, He is
much better off recuuic.liy than he was
twelve years ago, and his few personal
friends in the Dcstowment of favors have
no right 20 complain. The great Asipri
can people, however, feel that as II whole
they hdve not been benefited in--shc least
| by els administration, and if there are
! shy regrets at his approaching departure
from the White House, they have not
been loud enough for the general public
to hear. 1t is said to 'bc II belief on the
part of the departing President that his
countrymcn will miss him when he is

OF self-abnegation and undivided patriot
ism, they will call him back to Washing

Washington, and rule the country us long
thereafter as he may see fit; but will this
