Only a man, shri'veied and old 1
The‘srey 0f the winds and prey of the cold!
Cheeks that are shrunken,
Eyes that are sunken,
Lips that were never o'er bold:
Only a woman, forsaken and poor,
Asking fer aims at, the bronze church door.
Hark to the organ! 115111 upon roll
The waves qt"-I ills managebver her soul!

Fain would she enIr, but not for the poor
Swingeth wide open the bronze church door.
Only a woman—waiting alone,
' Icily cold on an ice-cold throne.
What do they care for her?
Mumbling a prayer for her,
' Giving not bread but a stone.
Under old laces their haughty hearts beat,
Mocking the woes of their kin in the street.
Only a woman I In the old days
' Hope caroled to her her happiest lay;
Somebody missed her,
Somebody kissed her,
Somebody crowned her with praise;
Somebody faced up the battles of life,
Strong for her sake,who was mother and w1fe.
Somebody lives with 11 trees of her hair
Light on his heart, where the death shadows
are- , -. .
Somebody waits for her,‘
Opening the gates for her,
Giving delight for despair.
Only a woman—nevermore poor—
Dead in the snow at the bronze church door!

Convention at Portland, last Tuesday, and re.
nominated Governor Connor unanimously.

Blaine, General Woodford, Eugene Hale, and
Mr. Frye. The platform which was adopted

ereignty of the Union, the rigid maintenance
of the Nation’ A pledes' in regard to the bonds
and currency, speedy resumption, and the
navigation laws; and it takes ground against
the payment of- Rebel war claims. The con-_
vention was perfectly harn'ionious. '

Mr. Blaine was loudly allied for; He re-
sponded. to the'callsrand said' -tl'1'e people of
Maine are distinguished for _a,l_1' sense of
honor and for common sense, an they do not
propose to repudiate, and do not believe a
promise to pay is money. He said: “I have
not the slightest fear that the greenback would
be ever repudiated: our forefathers issued

they had only issued SE .000 it would
have been redeemed. Says the Honorable
Chairman. Suppose they inflate. Congress
has said that the amount shall never exceed
S400, 000, 000. The greenback agitator invites
us to violate a solemn pledge of a Nation to
the world. We will never do it—never—
never. " (Shouts of “never. ”)
Messrs. Frye and Hale briefly responded
to calls, and the convention at 4 p. In. ad-
journed.
Tna PLA'rroni'I.
The Republicans of Mainta,‘ 1n 'conv'ention
assembled, as an exposition of their political
aim and principles, declare as follows:
After twenty-two years control of the
State Government they invite most rigid
scrutiny into the manner in which their great
responsibilities have been discharged, and
point with satisfaction to the fidelity. econo-
my and success with which the affairs of
State administration have conducted, and the
material and moral interests of the people
cared for.
Temperance .among the people may be
Freatly promoted by, wise prohibitory legis-
ation, as well as by all of those moral agen-
cies which have secured us beneficent results;
and it is a source of congratulation that the
principle of prohibition, which has always
an upheld by Republicans, is now concur-
sed in by so large a majority of the poop e
that it is no longera party question the Dem-
ocratis havin for several years declined to
contest and ispute it.
The Constitution of the United States dc-
clares that the citizens of each State are ,en-
titledI' an all priviliges and i'm'munitiés of citi-
zens in the several States, and we hold it to
be a primary and sacred duty of the National
Government to protect and maintain the ex- .
ercise of all this civil, political and public;
rights by every citizen of the United States. .
AsRepublicans we are solemnly pledged te'-
maintain these principles, and until they are:
cheerfuhy obeyed, and, if need be, vigorously;
enforced, the work 'of' the Republican party is
nnfinish ed.
The Republican party is committed to un-fi
remitting efforts, not only to secure the legiti-E
mate results ‘of the ,war.—_—.the sovereignity. of!
the Union, the equal rights of all citizens, and-'
free and untramme‘lled rights cf s'u‘ff 'fe—but
also to redeem the pledges which the vern-‘
mom. made to those who furnished means or
gave their service to save the Union whether
these pledges are in the farm of bonds ori
greenback notes. 9 insist that both forms
of the debt of the ation shall be paid with
the same fairness and integrity With which‘;
gnbltonest man seeks to, pay his individual
e s. .
We demand honest money for the people:
Our currency must be made good as coin,
and redeemable In it. The Government prom-
ised this. The Republican party has legis-
lated to perform it, and in the course of re-i
sumption it is now near] accomplished;
These must be no steps si eways or back-g
war .
We congratulate our fellow~eitizens on the
unmistakable evidence that the near apo;
proval to stable cnrrcncy is 'preparln the way:
for an early and permanent reviv 175 of busi-
ness and industry, solengI d ' by cause;
growing out ofa tic vii war, amongfi
which a depreciat 'and fleeteatin'g currency;
is most prominent, and. greatly aggravsted by:
the mischievous agitation of damage es in
and out of Congress for measnrcs, ‘ch, if;i
adopted as the policy of the Government
would bring permanent disorder and ruin tofi
business. discredit and dishonor upon the N11 5
tion. and tend to subvert many of those priu-fi
ci les which are fundamental to the existence
ocivilized- society.
The evident nqipurpose of the Democratic?
party, if it sh 11 come into full power, to
pay hundreds of' millions of suspended war;
claims of disloyal men, alread presented to:
Congress or awaiting a feverab e moment forfi
presentation, makes it doubly important, now;
that the Senate' 1s- soon to pass under Demo-i
cratic control. that the House of Represents-f
tives to be chosen' at [the coming clcctionsfi
should be under Rc' ublican control.
The navigation aws, which were enacted:
in the infancy of the ubllc, have provcdfi
their- wisdom by long an varied experience;
They embody the matured judgment of thrice,E
generations of commercial men. Any;

Abby Smith.
The passing away of an old lady named
Smith in a quiet farming town in Connecti.’
'cut is an event that a w years ago would
fihave been of interest to only a limited circle ‘
of relatives and friends, but the name of
Abby Smith, one of the now famous "Smith
sisters" of Glastonbury, is so well known
fieverywhere 00-day that a great many people
all over the country will feel a sense of real
firegret at the news of her death. The family
fito which she belonged was a somewhat unto-y
fible one, her father'first a clergyman but soon:
after and for the most of his life a lawyer
in her, and his, native town, and her mother
jawoman 'of unusal attainments, and both
possessed and transmitted to their five
daughters certain singularities, which were
.well illustrated in the quaint names they here
,Of which Abby Haddassan and Laurilla
Alcroyia are samples. The parents and older
sisters died, and left Abby and Julia Evelina
on the old homestead, where they lived
quietly and unknown, save for their interest
in antislavery and temperance work, till
nearly five years ago. At the November
gtown-meetlng in Glastonbury in 1873, the
two sisters surprised the voters by appearing
lit the town-hofise, where Abby made an im-
pressive speech on the injustice of their being
taxed without having any representation;
The Republican called prominent attention
to the performance, and a few weeks later
was chosen by the sisters as their means of
communication with the public, when Abby
'told the story of how their cows were sold
Ibecause they couldn t pay the taxes. '
I The quiet old ladies woke up all of a sad-
'den' to find themselves famous, their story
'copied in newspapers all over the land, their

CAnaoLio ACID FOR Conons AND CATARRH.
The London Medical Record gives the experi-
ones of. Dr. Meritz on the use of carbolic acid
spray in catarrhsl disease of the respiratory
orgdns- Having had much to do with'car-
bolic acid, and especially the spray, he noticed
that the bronchial catarrh with which he was
fretiuently troubled did not occur, and that if
it began, it was soon arrested. A colleague
of his, Dr. Asseldelfft, made the same obser-
vation. Dr. Moritz used the spray of a 2 per
cent solution of carbolic acid. He first tried
it on two children' in whom the commence-
ment of whooping-cough was suspected-_—
After the remedy bad been used two days,
the slight catarrh which was present came to
a stand-still, and in a few days_' disappeared.
In several children with measles the cough
was diminished, and the' nights- were more
quiet after the use of carbolic-acid spray. In
two surgical patients also, whose lungs were
in a suspicious state, the cough entirely dis-
appeared during the frequent use of the spray.
The carbolic acid does not act as a cauterant,
for dilution produces beneficial action, and it
is not demonstrated that it exerts any chemi-
cal action of the false membranes, as some
have thought. It appears most reasonable
that it acts as a parasiticide, detroying the
proto organism which costitute the funda-
mental part of the false membranes, which
exist in the circulatory system, since the local
alterations are more than the expression of
zymotc influence. I

GRANT‘s Forum or JULY SPEBOH.—GCIIC-
ral Grant spent the Fourth at Hamburg, and
at. a dinner given in his honor by the Ameri-
can vice~consul made the following capital
little speech: -
Mr. CCnsuI and Friends—1 am much oblig-
ed to you for the kind manner in which you
drank my health. I share with you in all
the pleasure and gratitude which Americans
so far from home should feel on this anniver-
sary. But I must dissent from one remark
of'Io'ur consul, to the effect that I saved the
country during thei'ecent war. If our country
could be saved or ruined by the efforts of any
one man we should not have a country, and
we should not be now celebrating our Fourth
of July. There are- many men who would
have done far better than I did under the cir-
cumstances in which I found myself during
the war. If I had never held command; if
I had fallen; if all our generals had fallen,
there were ten thousand behind us who would
have done our work just as well, who would
have followed the contest to the end and
never surrendered the Union. Therefore, it
is a mistake and reflection upon the people to
attribute to me or to any number of us who
held high commands, the salvation of the
Union. We did our work as well as we
could, and so did hundreds of thousands of
others. ' We deserve no credit for it, for we
should have been dnwortby of our country
andofsthe American name if we had not made
every sacrifice to save the Union. What
the young men of the nation. They came
from their homes and fields, as they did in
the time of the revolution, giving everything
to.their.country.. ...To..tbeir. .devotion we owe
the salvation'of 'the Union.’ ' ' The humblest
soldier who carried a musket is entitled to
as much credit for the result of _ the war as
thosewho were in command. So long as our
young men are animated by this spirit there
will be no fear for the Union.

Collector Smith of Chicago must be a good
deal of an autocrat. He 15 reported as saying
that the employees of his depa1tment will not
be allowed to contrib'lie 11 cent 'for political
purposes under any administration. It' IS to be
presumed however, that they have not lost
the right of all American citizens to spend
their spore cash as they please for any lav'vful
purpose. It Is altogether proper that federal
Officials,‘ like other people, should not be com.
pelled to subscribe for political purplish-Is, but

Our objection to Mr. Bsrnnm' is- not to the

not ,a talker he' is an abler man than most of

much. The difficulty with Mr.BaImnm' Is that
he‘ is; an American representative of the Bug-
lish political methods. He took his seat' In our
house of representatives just as a great Eng-
-'lish landed proprietor goes to the House of
Commons, His local influence enabled him
_to control votes, his heavy disburse-
