Indemnity Plan Favorable.
Regarding the indemnity, France thought
the immediate payment Of a lump sum was
preferable. A guarantee of some form or
other was necessary, and France believed
collective guarantee was the best China
accepted the principle of an indemnity some
months ago, and she consents to pay
the indemnity demanded.

But commercial relations will not be In

M. Des Tournelles de- Constant suggested
that the powers agree not to accept eAor-

replied that the principle OF these claims
had already been accepted.

Thomas Jefserson ms n Letter Writer.
Mr.. Jefferson probably wrote more
letters with his own hand than any
other public man that ever lived. The
extent of his correspondence may be
inferred from the fact that 10000 let
ters neatly folded and briefed were
preserved by him and found carefully
filed away at the time of his death,
with copies of the replies sent to more
than 10000. These, however, were on
ly small portion of his correspond
ence, as he retained only those he con-
sidered of future usefulness or impor-
tance.
Stenography was not invented at that
time. Every one of his letters was
written with his own hand and with
great care. although after breaking his
wrist while minister to France 1t be-
came great labor to him. His pen
manship was small, plain and legible,
every letter being perfectly formed, and
his account books are kept in so small
a hand that many of the pages cannot
be read without magnifying glass.
Jefferson was ambidextrous. He
could write equally well with either
hand. When his wrist was broken, he
learned to write with his left HAND,
which became as skillful as the othec.
1t would have been impossible for him
TO have carried on his extensive corre-

The Captive Bird.

Oh, hspless captive, held by prison bars,
From all Of Joy and hope In life apart, r., 50 !
Once Of the free and joyous woodland throug
That fills the fragrant air with vibrant song
From pzlest dawn till waking Of the stars,
Dost thou still hold the image In thine heart
OF all those lovely scenes-the budding flower,
In fragrant meadow where the zephyr swayed
The crimson clover to the wand'ring bee;
The glory OF the bloom crowned apple tree
Where, hid from ruthless gaze in April hour,
To thy dear mato thy trysting vows were NADER
Oh, tell me- captive with the mournful lay,
That well might touch cen stoic's heart to hear,
Doth memory's torment follow also theea
Is that the secret Of the dews see
Upon thine eve; that gaze so far away,
As IL through walls Of granite thou couldst peerf
Does stil the image Of thy gentle mate
Dwell in thy soul, with whom thou e'er didst Hy
with each recurring spring to seek again
That loved spot where hope and Joy did reign,
Where near the downy nest thou didst await
With swelling song thy tender brood's first cryf
Ah surely this the secret font must be
OF that supernsl psthos in thy song
That foods my soul with wistful memories
OF lost delights, as foods the twilight breeze,
The swayng pines with mournful harmony,
Whose sobbing chords to spirit choirs belong.

John Clark Ridpnth.

To the lorn ones who loved him first and bess
And knew his dear love at its tenderest
We seem akin-ve simplest friends who knew
His fellowship Of heart and spirit. too;
We who have known the happy summertids
or his ingenious nature, glorifed
with the inspiring smile that ever lit n
The earnest face and kindly strength Of II.
His presence, all commanding, as his thoughs
Into unconscious eloquencc was wrought
Until the utterance became spell.
What awed US &c a spoken miracle,
Leaning to him, was native-was, In truth.
The earliest playmate Of his lisping youth; y
Likewise throughout life Of toll and stress
1t was as laughter, health and happiness.
And SO he played with it, ioyed at its call,
Ran rioting with It, forgetting all
Delights OF childhood and Of age and famos !
A devotce of learning, still the same.
In fancy even now we catch the glance
or the rapt eye and radiant countenance,
As when his discourse, like a woodland stream,
Flowed unsteady on from theme to theme.
The skies, the stars, the mountains and the sea
He worshiped as their high divinity.
Nor did his reverent spirit find one thing
On earth too lowiy for his worshiping.
The weed, the rose. the wildwood or the plains
The teeming harvest or the blighted grain.
All, all were fashioned beautiful and good:
As the soul saw the senses understood.
Thus broadly based, his spacious faith and love
Unfolded all below as all above;
Nay, cen il overmuch he loved mankind,
He gave his loves vast lsrgesse az designed.
Therefore In fondest, faithful service he
Wrought ever bravely for humanity, I
Stood first Of heroes for the Right allied,
Foes even grieving when Gor thsm) he died.
This was the man we loved, are loving yet,
And still shall love while longing eyes are wet
With selfish teaIs that well were brushed aways
Remembering the unile OF yesterday.
For, even as we knew him, smiling still.
Somewhere beyohd all earthly ache or i'll
He waits, with the old welcome; just as whea
We met him smiling we will meet again.
