One of the Last Poems of William Guile


One of the Last Poems of William Cullen
Bryant.
Pale is the February sky,
And brief the midday's sunny hours;
The wind-swept forest seems to sigh
For the sweet time of leaves and
flowers
Yet has no month prouder day,
Not even when the summer broods
Ger meadows in their fresh array,
Or autumn tints the glowing woods.
For this season now again
Brings, in it's annual round, the morn
When, greatest of the sons of men,
Our glorious Washington was born.
Lo, where, beneath an icy shield,
Calmly the mighty Hudson flows!
By snowclad fell and frozen field
Broadening the lordly river goes.
The widest storm that sweeps through
space
And rends the oak with sudden force,
Can raise no ripple on his face,
Or slacken his majestic course.
Thus, mid the wreck of thrones, shall
live
Unmarried, undimmed our heroes
fame,
And years succeeding years shall give
Increase of honors to his name!

A most gratifying indication of the
times is the general revival of the ma
tional patriotic spirit, and yesterday
celebration at the Hyperion of the an
niversary of the birthday of Washing
ton, and the other events of like char
acter in this city and elsewhere in the
State and country, speak we'll for the
permanency and prosperity of the re-
public All the thousand and one pa
triotic celebrations of yesterday
throughout this broad land tend to the
further unification of the heterogeneous
elements in the body polite that in
these days exist; and especially hope
full and encouraging is the incubation
of the patriotic spirit in the minds of
that now vast body so well known as
Young America, Undue the youth of
the land with the love of the old flag
for which Washington fought, and with
love of country in general; teach them
to admire the lofty character of Wash
ington, and see to it that in church,
college, academy and schools in general
the patriotic spirit is inculcated and
the future welfare of the republic is
assured Let the flags continue to wave
from schools and factories, from stores
and public buildings, and from all the
flagstaffs on Washington's birthday;
let the star-spangled banner and the
undying example and fame of the Faith
er of his Country be ever dear to the
hearts of the people, and there can
come no rude, no disintegrating shock
to our national fabric. That was an
excellent talk on Washington which
DR.. Phillips gave yesterday afternoon
before the two thousand people and
more at the Hyperion, and equally ex-
cellent were the speeches at the ban
quet at Hartford of the Connecticut So
ciety of the Sons of the American Rev
olution. And as Of yore, as on every

meetings were at one time conspicuous
by lamentable scarcity of similar pa
triotic demonstrations in honor of the
day in this region. In recent years
the reawakening of the patriotic fires
is indeed subject for congratulation
and the celebrations and exercises in
the schools in honor Of the day and the
man are specially important in their
wholesome significance.

The World has been figuring up the
prospects as regards the adoption of
the arbitration treaty and remarks
thereon: The net result of the vote
therefore. is encouraging. 1t leaves
little doubt that sooner of later the
great treaty of peace and civilization
will be ratified. 1t is pity that small
antagonisms and petty jealousies
should have prevented the prompt ac-
ceptance of treaty which all enllght-
ened minds justly regard as the crown
ing glory of the century; but at any
rate there is a growing certainty that
in the end the great step forward will
be taken"
AS to the voting strength of the re-
publicans in the senate, and the prob
able action of the senate on the new
tariff BILL the Springfield Republican
figures things out as follows:
1.-THE republicans will not be able to
figure out clear party majority in
the next senate. They have at present
only AZ senators, and 46 are required to
assume full party ascendency in the
chamber. If Kentucky sends on a re-
publican, which is somewhat doubtful,
and a republican succeeds in unravel-
ing the Oregon snarl, they would have
A senators, or two short Of majority.
1t is hardly possible now that that fig
ure can be improved upon.
But in respect to the one distinctly
party measure to come before the next
congress majority seems to be assur-
ed. The populist Kyle of South Dako-
ia has practically announced his in
tention to vote for the tariff bill, and
Jones of Nevada, if no other semi-re-
publicans or semi populists, can be
counted on to do the same thing. it is
said. So that with the casting vote of
Vice President Hobart, even supposins
Kentucky fails to elect republican to
succeed Blackburn, tariff bill can I'M
doubtedly be passed without difficulty
Consequently it can make no ma
terial difference whether the number OF
out-and- out republicans in the senate is
increased over the present number OF
not There is no other party measure
in sight besides the tariff"

BICYCLING IN EUROPE.

A Delightful Trip on the Wheel-How
England Regards the Woman Cyclist
Splendid Roads Everywhere-A
Journey Replete With Incidents
Beautiful Scenery and Striking Ma
tive Costumes-A Trip to Algiers.
To the Editor of the Journal and Courier:
In these days when everybody rides
bicycle and three American wheelmen
have already made the circuit of the
globe, there is nothing especially novel
about wheeling in Europe, but perhaps
some one who has not yet experienced
the joy of that mode of travel in for
eign lands may not be bored by few
words on the subject by former in
habitant of New Haven. During the
past two years my brothers and I have
spent a good deal of time on our wheels,
and in that way have become fairly
we'll acquainted with the roads of Eu-
rope, good and bad. Although the lat
ter are almost unknoWn-for, with the
exception of England, where the roads
are not so well kept up and there exist
some disgraceful ones--I might say that
in the course of five thousand miles we
have found nothing less than wheel
mans paradise--France next to Ameri-
ca is the country where the most cy-
cling is done by men and women. Eng
land and Germany are coming on, but
up to last year were far behind in that
respect. 1 know by experience that
two years ago in Germany "eine frau
auf-velo' was an innovation whose ar
rival was heralded from town to town
like the coming of the circus. In Eng
land at that time the luckless woman
bicyclist met everywhere cold British
disapproval, often accompanied by a
shower of stones on the part of the
small boys. But as nothing can stop
the onward march of civilization, Ger
man prejudices have given away, and
now frau and frauline are devoting
themselves with Teutonic thoroughness
to the development of their bicycle mus
Giles. And in England, since the Prin-
cess Maud took to riding a bicycle, the
English women find that wheeling is
good form" and are now making uL
for lost time. But if the bicycle is toll
Grated, rational dress, boomers or short
shirts, are not. Nothing but the Longest
of long skirts is permissible, and the
women of Great Britain will doubles;
