How easily He turns the tides!

Just now the yellow beach was dry,

Just now the gaunt rocks all were bars,
The sun. heat hot and thirsily. '
E3011 sea-weed waved its long brown hair,
And bent and languished as in pain;

Then, a flashing moment’s space,

The white foam feet which spanned the sand
Paused in their joyOus outward race,
Wheeled, wavered, turned them to the land
And sWiftly, legionary band -
Poured on the waiting shores again. »

How easily He turns the tides!

The fullness of my yesterday

Has vanished like a rapid dream,

And pitiless and far away

The cool, refreshing waters gleam;

Grim rocks of dread and doubt and pain

Bear their dark fronts where once was see;

But I can smile and wait for Him

Who turns the tides so easily,

Fills the spent rock-pool to the brim,

And up from the horizon dim

Leads His bright morning waves again.

An Institution that has Never
Changed its Officers or Location
in Twenty—six Years.

Changes in be business life Of New York
are so f requen and so numerous that an in-
stitution that remains for a long period un—
changed naturally commands the attention
and respect of all intelligent observers.
Permanence is an indication of soiidity, of
strength, of honest dealings; and is recog-
nized as such; and this is true whether as
applied to individuals or communities. In
the field of fire insurance no better illustra-
tion of this principle need he desired than
the famous old Peter Cooper Fire Insurance
Company, the ofiicers and location oi which
remain the same as when organized in
April 1853. There is tO-day no better known
company in the city, no more respected men
than its Officers. President Nathan C. Ely
and Secretary William H. Riblet have
grown gray in the service Of the Peter
Cocper,and thanks to their wise and prudent
management the Company has come unscitth-
edfrom disasters, financial and otherWise,
that have swallowed up hundreds of weaker
or less ably handled institutions. The char—
acter Of the men and of the Company is
strikingly brought out by the fact that on
December 81st, 1878, the-e was not _a single
dollar outstanding for unpaid losses or claims.
Only one other company out of the 89 be-
longing tc New York State—inc New York
Equitable—made such a showmg as this. _ It
is also brought out by the fact that the ratio
OI losses to premium receipts was only 14.07

t cent,, while the average of all the New

ork companies was 40.51. The Peter
Cooper pays promptly to its policy holders
every dollar it owes them, and its stockhold—
ers (an .1 the largest has always been the presi-
dent of .he company) fat dividends,and sales
of its stuck in the open market have recently‘
been mule at 200. President Ely has held
many offices of distinction in the city of
New York. He held Ofiice as an Alderman
for several years, and Supervisor and Presi-
dent of the Board of Aldermen and Presi-
dent of the Board of Supervisors and Presi-
dent of the Board of Health and is now
President of the American Institute; but he
never filled any that reflected more honor
upon him than that which he has faithfully
filled for more than a quarter of a century
in connection with the Peter Cooper Fire
Insurance Company, which is, and always
has been, one of the strongest companies in
the city—Nets York Mercantile Review.

‘ Another evidence of the sound judgment
of President Ely has come to our knowledge.
While on the cars recently and commenting
on newspapers, he remarked: “I take about
thirty newspapers and other publications and
have had the Norwalk Gaza'r'r: for about
that number of years, and there isn't one I
take that my family would not rather I
would stop than the old Gazettes.” It is easy
to see why the Peter Cooper succeds when
a man of such discrimination and practical
goodsense is at its‘head.——[Ens. Gaz.

Guicn’s New Steamer Arizona.

 

\
Several N orwalk parties who went to see the
Morison party OfI,~0n Saturday week, visited
the new marine wonder of the old and pop-
ular Williams & Guioa line, which was
moored at the next dock. The Arizona ar-
rived Sunday week on‘ her first trip, which
was made in 7 days, 11 hours and 22 minutes,
the quickest time ever made by a new steam-
er On her first or trial passage. The Arizona
is the largest steamship afloat, and the largest
ever launched with the single exception of
the Great Eastern, since converted into a sail-
ing vessel. The Arizona is 462 feet in
length, 46 feet beam, and 371,: feet depth of

with one high pressure and two low pressure
cylinders. The propeller is 28 feet in diam-

trip she made Over 17 miles an hour. She
has seven double-ended boilers and coal
bunkers, with a capacity of over 1,200 tons,
her daily consumption Of coal being about
100 tons. A broad companionway leads
from the entrance on the main deckto the
saloon, which contains six long tables with
revolving chairs. A large dome-like aper-
ture, withaskylight at the top, rises from
the centre of the saloon, and is crossed by
beams supported by small pillars of polished
wood, upon which are placed plants and
flowers. The saloon extends the entire width
of the vessel, and contains a fine piano at
the forward end, and a library at the after
end. The staterooms are elegantly uphols-
tered and contain every facility for comfort.
Pneumatic bells run from all the staterooms
to the steward‘s pantry, which is situated
right aft the main saloon. The first cabin is
amidships, forward of the engines, and ac.
commodates 138 passengers. The cfiiccrs’
quarters are on the same deck, aft of the sa-.
Icon. Next is the second cabin, which is
aft, where the first cabins of most steamers
are located, which will accommodate 65 pas-
sengers, while the entrance to the ateerage is
on the main deck, just in front of the after
wheel house. A richly furnished ladies’ bou-
doir is on the promenade deck, just aft of
the forward wheel house. This deck covers
the entire part of the vessel amidships. There
are small whale back decka‘built entirely of
iron, at the extreme forward and afterends
of the vessel. The companionway is unusu-
ally wide, and will allow streams of people
three abreast to pass up and down at the
same time without crowding in the least.
The sieersge can, if necessary contain berths
enough for 1,800 emigrants, while the hold
will contain immense quantities Of freight.
The Arizona was built on the Clyde, by John
Elder &. Co.,and is commanded by Capt.
James Price. She brought out a large gener-
al cargo and 214 passengers, amongwhom was
Mr; Oarl Rosa. She sailed again for Liverpool
on Tuesdaylast, and with a large comple-
ment of passengers. .Tbis line has had an
established agency at the Gazer-IE office for
the sale of passenger tickets and foreign
drafts for nearly thirty years, and in all that
time we have never heard one word of com-

 

attestations of the great care and honorable
conduct of all connected with the old and
popular line. Since steam has superceded
their old Black Star sailing ships, the line has
been the freest from accidents of any trans~
Atlantic Steamship company.

Annual Town Meeting.

The town meeting which occurs in Octo-
ber, will not only have its usual interest,
but in conjunction with our sister towns
we will be called upon to approve or dis-
approve two important Constitutional Amend-
ments, of which, one provides for a biennial
session- Of the Legislature, and the other
that the Judfl of the Supreme Court of
Errors, and of the Superior Court, hereafter
appointed, shall hold Office during good be.
haviour, or until the age 'of seventy-five
years is attained. There. is no doubt but
that these amendments will prevail especi-
ally the former, which, will lessen nearly
one-half the expenses 05 legislation, and
check the flood Of laws which, heretofore
have been annually poured out by our solons.
Provision has been made that the Registrars
of voters shall meet before the time of the
annual town meetings, so that any whose
rights would mature before that time can
vote on these important measures. If the
amendments are adopted there will be no
election in November, the members of the
last assembly holding over for two years.
This change will cause the election for
members of the Legislature to occur} simul—
taneously with that for members of Con-
gress, and they will hold office for two years.

The Bennett Polar Expedition.
‘ .'_L_—
A TALK WITH HER COMMANDER.

 

A representative of the Chronicle called on
Lieutenant De Long, U. S. N., who has
command of ihe' yacht Jeannette, of the
Bennett polar Erpedition,at the Palace Hotel
rccently,and gathered some interesting infor—
mation respecting his plan of operations.
Lieut. De Long is a man who would strike
the most superficial observer as one well
qualified to engage in the perilous undertak-
ing he has in view. Like all men of a strong
reserved force of character. he is extremely
indisposed to make, public anything which
would give color to the thought that he was
over-confident of success or underestimated
the chances of failure. “The less said now,”
he remarked, “the less notice will be taken
of me should I fail; and if I am successful
I shall enjoy the glory the more from not
. having started off with a flourish of trum-

pets."

. Lieut. De Long will leave for New York
next weekmnd be ready to sail for the frozen
zone about the middle of June. The yacht
will carry thirty: three sOuls,twcnty—five men
forward and eight aft. Her commander
would prefer to have the crew made up
entirely of Amercau seamen, but as it may
be difficult to get that number Of able-bodied,
temperate Americans ‘who would endure the
hardships cffsnch an expedition, he will
probably accept the services of Danish,
Norweigan and Swedish» sailors. Several
young men have already volunteered to take
the chances.

The ,“aiter guard" will be eight in number,
the commander, two lieutenants and a master
of the navy, two surgeons, a scientist—that
is a man who combines a knowledge of geol-
ogy, mincraiogy,botany and kindred sciences
—aud a recorder, who will also be skilled in
photography,'for the purpose Of transcribing
full accounts of all which occurs of interest
on the voyage. In addition to this force,Mr.
Bennett may conclude to send a member of.
the Herald staff to act as correspondent.
The Jeannette will have on board provisions

Court F088.

Col. Wait did a sensible thing in the House
as he always does when he makes any do-
Mr. Dunnell had moved to
makethe pay of Grand Jurors in the United
States Courts 83 instead of $2 per day, as
now. This was opposed, when the following
discussion occurred: ,
Mr. Wait—Mr. Chairman, I will renew the
amendment. I wish to say that in Connecti-
cut $2 a day will not meet the expense in-
curred by gentlemeu who are called from the
different seetions of the State to serve as
jurors at the 'sessions «of the United States
circuit and district courts, which are held
alternately in the cities of Hartford and New
Haven. At these places transient board can.
not be obtained at ' the leading hotels or in
respectable boarding houses for $2 a day.
Then there are, of course, other. cxpendi
lures that jurors, when away from their
homes, are necessarily compelled to incur.
We mean in Connecticut to send intelligent
and fit men to serve as jurors in the Federal
courts, and I believe that we ordinarily do.
Farmers, merchants and mechanics are se-
leccted, men who will discharge this very
important duty faithfully and fairly, and are
compelled to leave their diderent business
pursuits and serve on juries. They are wil—
ling to leave their business and their homes

and give their time to the discharge Of this
public service, but they want and ought to
receive sufiicient compensation to meet all
the expenses they are forced to incur. But
this they cannot do when the per diem is. but

Mr. McMahon—I would like to ask the
gentleman a question.
- Mr. Wait—Certainly; any that you please,
Mr. McMahon—My part of the country is
full of advertisements of nice watering
places, summer resorts, in Massachusetts and
Connecticut, where people can get board at
six or eight dollars a week. What does that
mean 7
Mr. Wait—That is true. You can get
good board in respectable families at the see
side and in the country at the prices named.
But the gentleman (Mr. McMahon] must
recollect that the sessions of the United
States courts are not held at seaside resorts
or at small villages in the country. These
courts sit in the cities. and if my friend from
Ohio will migrate to Connecticut we will
with pleasure honor him by selecting him to
serve as a jurcrin these courts; but he would
soon find that $2 a day would not pay table
board and room rent at any hotel or boarding
house such as he would desire to stay at._to
say nothing of failing to supply him With
certain little incidentals and creature com-
forth that he might desire to enjoy. [Laugh-

No. These evidences of modern civili»

Extra Session Results.

 

The great leaders and wise statesmen who,
in the fullness of their control of the branch
of Congress which holds the purse-strings cf
the Nation, decided at the close of the last
session to withhold apppropriations and force
the calling together, in extra session, ofa
new Congress, in which their party had ful-
lcr power and freer scope, have had three
months of their experiment; and in view
Oran adjournment presently, can post their

was to strengthen the party for 1830 There
entered largely of course into the arguments
that moved them to this determination the
consideration that the Senate was about to
fall into their hands, and with it a lot of
Offices and patronage,. for which expectant
Democrats were too impatient to wait until
December.
Sefiator and Representative felt, in greater or
less degree, the pressure from this source.
From {a partisan point of view it may have
been wise to hasten on the division of these
spoils before the crowd of claimants had
time to increase in numbers and in clamor.
If on this score it is defended, we shall
not dispute the wisdom of it. Thepostponel
ment would only have put a little further
off the disgrace which the Democratic lead-
ers in the Senate brought upou'themselves
and their party by the tricks and subtifuges
and lying evasious, through which they
wriggled and twisted, up [to the accomplish-
ment of their purpose and the transfer and
division of the spoils. There was the strong-
est probability that the rush of office seekers
and their hunger would increase with each
day of waiting, and not the slightest pros

A few extracts from the great number re.
ceived by the most eminent musicians in the
United States may not be inappropriate:
I have never seen a Piano which equals the
Weber Pianoforte. Geo. F. Bristow
The Weber Piano occupies justl the first
rank amongst the Best Pianos. J. . Patti'son
The I’Veber Pianos cannot possibly be sur-
passed. ' S. B. Mills.
I used the Weber Grand Piano because I
consider it the best in the world.
Harry Sanderson.

The Weber Piano possesses everything that
can be wished for in a Piano. 0. W. Morgan.
The Weber Piano ranks foremost amongst
the best manufactured. William Mason.
The Weber Pianos stand first amongst the
splendid Pianos produced in this Country.

Clara N. Brinkerliof.
A ten years’ experience satisfies me that

the Weber Pianos are unapproachable.
John Zundel.

I would call especial attention to

DISEASES of the Threat and Lungs are the
most fatal of human afflictions. Thousands
of our fellow beings are carried to their early
graves and final rest, every year by. the prince of
terrors “Consumption.” In many instances this
fatal malad secures a victim who'at first merely
had. a_ cold, iit neglected to use-proper remedies
until it was too late. . Others were afilicted with
Bronchitis, Laryngltia, Catarrh, or some of the
many diseases to which the throat and lungs are
subject. All Of these complaints, in their early
stages can be cured with BRIGGS’ Throat and
Lung Healer. composed of the most approved ex-

the human race; all classes sufi‘er. Thelhead ‘
never aches when the various organs are work-

headache if the human machinery is in a healthy
condition. Headache may arise from some par-
ticular part ofthe system being (lisarranged, or
the whole. It arises from many and various caus~
es. It may be from nervous prostrution, fear or
passion, over exertion. lack of sleep, rcat mental
labor, anxiety. general debility, loco. disease in
some partpftho body, lack of proper nourish-

The Man O’Alrlle.
““

Oh, there abou' you heather hill
Where foctfa’ comes but rarely.
There is a house they point out still,
Where dwelt the man -of Airlie.
He wore a coat 0’ hodden gray,
‘ His hand was hard wi’ labor,

But still he had a hamely way
0’ standin’ by his neighbor.

His burly laugh made men rejoice,
His words the neighbors guided;

The liltle bairnies loved his voice,
And in his smile confided;

The words to-day that left hr's lip
Became a deed to-morrow,

Hout, man, the friendship of If; grip
Would lift the heart 0’ sorrow.

He was na’ loud, he was na‘ proud,
. He lacked in larnin’ sairly,

And yet ye’d pick him frae a crowd,
The honest man of Airlie.

His wealth it was nae in his land,
It was na' in the city; ‘

A mint 0’ honor was his hand,
His heart a’mine O' pity.

He's dead and gene, this prince 0' Fife.
Mute is his burly laughter;

But ah! the music of his life
That hides wi’ us lang after.

His memory lives, the man may die,
Tim lingers bright and lovin'

Just like a. star lost frae the sky,
Whose ray survives his ruin.

Survival Oftlie Fittest.

 

‘Nought but the fittest lives,” I hear
Ring on the northern breeze of thought;
‘_‘To nature’s heart the strong are dear;

The Weak must pass unloved, unsought."

And yet, in undertones, a Voice

,Is heard that says: “0 child of earth, ’
Your mind’s best work, your hearts best
choice, ’

Shall stand with God for what they’re worth.”

Time's buildings are not all of stone;
With fairlest fibres Nature spins
Her living webs from-zone to zone,
And what is lost she daily wins.

I fain would think, amid the strife

Here is a dramatic story astouchingss that
of Efiie Deans, in which a young American
has just played the part of Jeannie in as ef-
fective, if less romantic, a way. A prétty
servant girl, named Wade, in Lincolnshire,
was betrayed by a young clerkabout a. year
ago, and forced to return to the home which
she had disgraced, with her child. The old
tragical story followed step by stepl , The
cowardly scouudrel Who had ruined her re-
fused to marry her, but would not give her
up. The poor girl, loving her baby passion-
ately,‘had scant sympathy for it or herself
from the sisters and brothers on whose de-
cent name she had brought _a taint. Her
mother, a hard worked woman, who had
brought up fourteen children hencrably,‘
wanted to send the wretched babe of shame
to the aims-house and its mother out again to
service. Nobody had a kind word for her
but the cold—hearted villain who refused to
give her the only help possible. SO. the weak,
fond creature made up her mind that there
was no place here for her or her baby, and so
poisoned them both, first writing a pitiful

SICK HEADACHE!

This distressing afiiiction occurs most frequent-
ly. The disturbance of the stomach, arising
from the imperfectly digested contents, causes a
severe pain in the head, accompanied with disa-
greeable unseat, and this constitutes what is pop-
ularly known as Sick headache.
