boy of ten months in her arms, little girl Of
less than three years pulling at her dress, and
an older girl Of seven or eight doing her best
to straighten out the articles disarrangcd by
customers | entered into conversation with
her, and expressed my surprise at finding
woman Of her apparent education and refiue-
ment in such a position. She told me that
her husband was studying for a physician,
that, to support the family and enable him to
do it, she had undertaken this toy-shop, and
she added, with great PRIDE have succeeded

expresses the correct idea of true journalism
in these words "The true journal has a
mission of its own. When it becomes the
mere instrument of any party, sect or faction
aud is swayed hither and thither by every
breath of passion or anger, it degrades ITSELF
and is as little needed as the common sccld

bility Of all the people engaging in the business
of law and notwithstanding, were they all
equally qualified, the founders OF our excellent
system Of Republican government, not only wise
ly, but Of necessity, constituted a system Of rep
resentatiye or delegate exercise Of power, conce-
ded to be inherent with the people. While they
are the source, or fountain Of power, the power
itself or the flowing currents, are the representa-


tiyes by whom for the time being that power IL
exerted When these fail to represent truly that
popular will at regularly appointed periods they
should be exchanged for Others who will represent

reflection. While there are not many young

imprisonment in the Eastern Penitentiary for
two years, in punishment of one of his offences

been scarcely an investigation into the opera

have been deemed light matter but for the

A PICTURE OF HIS NEWSPAPER MALIGNERS.


What language can we employ sufficiently
nervous to correctly portray the men who
are, with mendacious tongue and pen, re-
hashing these charges! Truly


There is a lust in man no charm can tame


OF loudly publishing his neighbours shame


On eagle wings immortal scandals dy,


While virtuOus actions are but born to die.


Such men are the pest of social and
political life; vultures who feed on carriOn
and fatten on corruption; stealthy towards,
who attack honest men in the dark, and
hide themselves behind anonymous commu-
nications or assumed names. ...-..


To have such known is to insure for them
the contempt Of even the base towards who
employ them to do their dirty work. A
highwayman is gentleman beside such,
for he does meet his enemy face to face, and
takes the chances of defeat in his dishonest
efforts.


Pardon me, if have intruded too much

the fact that a mendaciOus scoundrel can
tell more falsehoods in a stick full of type,
than can be answered in a whole column.

Nothing Is our own; ; we hold our pleasures
just a little while ere thev are fled;
One by one life robs us of our treasures
Nothing is our own except our dead.
They are ours, and hold In faithful keeping
Safe forever all they took away,
Cruel life can never stir that sleeping;
Cruel time can never seize that prey.
How the children leave US! and no traces
Linger of that smiling angel band;
Gone, forever gone, and In their places
Weary men and ANXIOUS women stand.
Yet we have some little ones still ours;
They have kept the baby smile. We know,
Which we kissed one day and hid with flowers
On their dead white faces long ago.
Is love ours, and we dream we know 1t.
Bound with all our heart strings all our own
Any cold and cruel da, n may show 1t,
Shattered, desecrate,is overthrown.
Only the dead hearts forsake us never;
Love that to deaths loyal care has fled,
Is thus consecrated ours forever,


And no change can rob us of our dead.
