But Washington beheld the lovely
sight with doubt. Long accustomed
unerringly to predict what Britain
would do, he had nothing to hope, but
everything to fear. America, without
cash or credit!-her officers, without
a dollar in pocket, standing about
camps in long boards and dirty shirts
her soldiers often without a crust
in their ~knapsacks or a drain in their
canteens- and her citizens every
where sick and tired of war!-Great
Britain, on the other hand, every
where victorious over the fleets of her
enemies-completely mistress of the
watery world, and Judas-like, bag
bearer of its commerce and CASH. with
such resources, with all these trumps
in her hands, will she play quits, and
make a draw game of it? Impossible!
but if she should, at must be the work
"of that Providence who ruleth in the
"armies of Heaven and earth, and
"whose hand has been visibly displayed
gin every step of Jul progress to in
dependence" Nothing" continued
Washington, "can remove my doubts
"but an order from the ministry to
remove their fleets and armies"
That welcome order, at length, was
givenl and the British troops, sprucely
powdered and perfumed, in eager
thousands HE'D on board their ships.
"All hands unmoor!" the stamping
boatswain cry'd:
"AIl hands unmoor." the joyous crew
replied.
Then all in a moment they fly to
work. Some, Selling the heavy hand

thence coming down all at once with
the hearty Y~o-heave-O, they shake the
sounding decks and tear from their
dark ooZy beds the p%onderous anchors
Others. with halyards hard strained
through the creaking blocks, sway
aloft the wide-eXtended yards, and
spread their canvas to the gale, which,
with increasing freshness, bears the
broad-winged ships in foam and thun-
der through the waves. Great was the
ioy of the multitude. for they were
Fastening to revisit their native land,
and to meet those eyes of love which
create a heaven in the v%irtuous breast.
But the souls of some were sad. Those
were the rejecting few, whose
thoughts were on the past, and on the
better hopes Of former days.! To

the heavy laugh and song, gave no de-

the burning track which the ships left
behind them in their rapid flight.
There, deep in thought they sat with
eyes sad fixed on the l~essening shores,
and ruminated even to melancholy.
The dismal war returns upon their
thoughts, with the pleasant days of
'76, then bright with hope, but now,
alas! all darkened in despair. "'Twas
them" they said, eve first approached
these coasts, shaded far and wide with
our navies nodding tall and stately
over the heaving surge. From their
crowded decks looked forth myriads of
blooming warriors, eagerly gazing on
the lovely shores, the farms, and
iocks, and homes, fondly thought their
own, with all the beauteous maids, the
easy purchase of a bloodless strifei
But alas, vain hope! Washington met
US in his strength. His people poured
around him as the brindled sons of the
desert around their sire when he lifts
his terrible voice, and calls them from
their dens, to aid him in war against
the mighty rh~inocerous. The battle
ragged along a thousand felds-a
thousand streams a purple with
British gore. And now of all our
blooming warriors, alas! how few re-
main! Pierced by the fatal rifle, far
the greater part now press their
bloody beds. There, each on his couch
of honour, lie those who were once
the flower of our host. There lies the
gallant Frazer, the dauntless Fergu-
son, the accomplished Donop, and
that pride of youth, the generous An
DIRE, with thousands equally brave and
good. But, O! We dear partners of
this cruel strife, though fallen you
are not forgotten! Often. with tears
do we see you still, as when YOU re
ioiced with US at the feast, or fought
by our sides in battle. But vain was
all our v%alour; for God fought for
Washington. Hence u choicest troops
are fallen before him: and We, the sad
remains of war, are now returning,
~inglorious. to u native shores. Land

Ghosts of the noble dead chide not

who often mourned the death which
their valour gave. But now the un-
natural strife is past, and peace re-
turns. And. O! that with peace may
return that spirit which once warmed
the hearts of the Americans toward
their British brethren, when the sight
of our tall ships was wont to spread

planter. viewing his cotton covered

employment and bread for thousands

When l went up to Nazareth
A pilgrim of the spring
When l went up to Nazareth
The earth was poisoning.
| saw the blue flower of the fax
Beside a shepherds fold!
Along the hillsides' stony tracks
I found the marigoh!
The iris raised a shimmerfng spire
Of beauty at my feet!
The poppy was a u of fire
Among the cooling wheat!
When I went up to Nazareth
1 marked how time came down
With blighting dust and whitening breath
Upon the hallowed town!
The years hat buried Babylon
Were drifting to efface
The steps of Mary's Heavenly Son.
His dwelling and his race!
But still l read his ~permanence
BY signs that never dim;
with all their ancient ~eloquence
The lilies spoke OF Him!

are a necessity and serve valuable

great need is producers, especially
men and women filled with the de-

ica's great need Is revival of the
desire to serve. Americas great need
is a revival of the habit of saving.
Il am not fearful for America in
the long run; but rather 1 am a great
optimist on this country and the peo-
pie of this country. My love Of
America causes me to issue .e warn
ing that the attitude of TIL average
young person today is not right

of the United States by blindly shut

of the new generation toward indus

Shaking of Earth Drives Many to
What They Considered Place
OF Safety

Toxic, July 27.--Tokio had a surfeit
of earthquakes during June. Be-
tween the second and fourteenth of
the month 81 were recorded on the
seismograph, many of them of suffi-
cient force to waken the, hardened
citizens of the capital and send them
scurrying under door lambs, which
are considered the safest places when
mother earth decides to readiust her
self. Most of these shocks originated
In Kashima Bay, which is in the
earthquake zone, and fortunately did
no damage.
DIR. FusakiChi Ormori, authority on
earthquakes and volcanoes. has as
sured the people that, despite the re-
cent restlessness of the earth which
will continue for some time. Toxic is
a region comparatively free from dan
ger. The shape and formation Of ia
pan, according to DR.. Omori, make II
peculiarly susceptible to underground
disturbances. The volcanic zone lies
along the inner Japan Sea side of the
arc formed by the islands. with an
offshoot at right angles in the direc-
ton of Mt Full. The earthquake
zone lies along the outer. Pacific slope

(ouoted Locally Only BY The Herald.
Wellesley Hills, Mass, July 81
Roger w. Babson was today asked
why It is that he is not so optimistic
on the general business situation
when 50 many of the barometers OF
buiness indicate great prosperity
The optimistic forecasts of prominent
bankers, manufacturers. and financial
advisors were called to Mr. Babson's
attention and he was frankly asked
why q warning was needed under
present stable conditions. His reply
vas as follows:
TT Is true that number OF the
barometers OF business are distinctly
favorable at the present time. In
order to be absolutely fair to every
one I even took pains to enumerate
thse in q published statement only a
month ago. The merchants are not
over stocked; manufacturers have not
been specializing in raw materials;
banks have good resources; check
transactions are normal; railroad
earnings are exceptionally good; and
our great industries are apparently
on sound basis. My critics are
correct in their statement that sur
face Indications point to wonderful
business this fall, and perhaps two
or three years of rising prices /
realize these rising figures as we'll as
anyone and 1t Is very hard for me to
sound a warning while so many are
SO optimistic and so contented.
"My reason for sounding warn
ing Is two-fold. First, the Babson-
heart of business conditions shows
clearly that the period of readjust-
ment Is inevitable. Second. that the
attitude of the younger generation is
distinctly harmful TO the present
situation. That Is TO say. my warn
ing is based both on statistics and on
a study of the spiritual forces under
lying business. OF course, in real
ity, the spiritual or moral forces are
by far the more important as they
really determine what statistics and
khe chart will later show. The atti
1tude of the people bears the same
relation to the Babsonchart and TO
statistics that the temperature bears
to the thermometer, or as carload
ings bear TO railroad earnings.
