Called and Chosen ail Faithful.
“Called”—to the work of living
A manly and noble life.
Summoned to hear your part in
A bitter though bloodless strife;
Where the foes are thoughts and feelings
That must not have their way,
And the conflict, lonely and doubtful,
Goes on by night and day.
“Chosen"—to bear without fiinching
Hard and enduring pain,
. To hope for an unsought sympathy,
And to hope for it in vain.
To wait in a forced inaction -
While another bears off the prize,
And to live misunderstood and misjudged
By the kindliest human eyes.
“Faithful”-—through all and in spite of all
To God and your own brave heart,
Fighting the battle without complaint,
Silently bearing the smart. ' .
Keeping,through disappointment and doubt
Your own life pure and true.
Do you say the old heroes are dead, my
friend ?
They live on, in men like you !

AN OLD LIVERYMAN’S EXPERIENCE OF THE
» SEX.
James A. Garfield.
[From the Christian Union.]
The nomination of General Garfield was
made by the men who did not attend the
convention which apparently nominated
him. He was nominated by the people,
_ and not by the politicians. His nomina—
tion was a new attestation of the political
value of moral qualities. The Republican
party has passed by the eminent soldier, the
eminent financiervand the eminent party poli-
tician to take up a man. who is chiefly emi-
nent for the christian purity and integrity of
his life and character. They are without
reproach and above suspicion, though, of
course, not above slander; for the morning
after the nomination the opposition began its
campaign of calumuy. If Moses were nom.
inatcd for the Presidency there are papers
which would bring up the charge that be
murdered an Egyptian and ran off with the
Egyptian women’s jewelry.
What enthusiasm the nomination will
arouse remains to be seen, but it will at least
excite no opposition within the Republican
party, and will give memorable satisfaction
to all its sections. The believers in a con-
tinuous tenure of office will see in Gen. Gar-
field a representative of their cure for the
strife of factions. For 'Gen. Garfield not
only comes from a district that believes in
third and f rth terms. but his eminence in
“American fifties is due to that fact. The
iWestern reserve basin :1 period of half a
“Isn’t it rather singular that women never

marks some irate man as iieinSpects a tired
animal, and finds the bridle over its ears, and
the bits half way down its throat.
“But women can drive,” cries a champion
of the sex. “Dont they drive seven or eight
miles to market with vegetables or loads of
hay ? Don’t they take their babies out to
ride whenever they can get hold of a horse ‘1’
Why there never was a woman who couldn't
drive, and some of them can handle a horse
much better than their husband can?”
“Can women drive! and do you let them
handle your best horses?” were the ques—
tions put to a good-natured livery-keeper by
an interested party. _ .
“Dr'we,” answered the letter—out of
equines, “I should think they could, but as
to letting them our best horses that is an-
other matter. We have horses in our stables
few men can drive. We keep what we call
safe horses for ladies’ use—the kind that will
go anywhere if you just guide them,old fam~
ily nags, sensible enough to trot along and
mind their own business and not fret if they
are pulled two ways at once.”
“Do you object tolctting horses out for
women to drive i”
“No, indeed; we have from twelve to fit—
teen ladies a week comes _to us for horses,
and we give them good ones, too, they drive
them :so we don’t care to give them high-
spirited animals. Now look at that sorre ,”
pointing to one from whom the harness had
just been removed. “I let that horse this
morning to a bit of a woman with wrists no
bigger than my two fingers. I didn’t want
to let it go, because it’s such an ugly puller.
I told her it had a mouth like iron, but
she said she wanted to take an old aunt
that was visiting her out to see the town,
and, she drove off quietly enough. But
half an hour after I saw her coming down
I’Voodward avenue like a streak of lightning,
everybody running to get out of the way,
and the old aunt hanging on for dear life.
She just had ,the lines wound around those
little wrists, and braced her feet on the dash
board, and when she came to a corner whisk-
ed round it on one wheel. The rig came in
all right, but that horse won’t get its breath
for a week.”
“Do they often meet with accidents and
have a smash-up f” «
“No. It is curious, but a woman will take
a team through a dozen hairbreadth es-
, capes and bring it back all right. We have
any amount of trouble with men,who take
our best rigs, get on a spree, and break '
things all to pieces. A woman is either
more cautious, or she will call upon every
man in sight to help her out of the scrape.
They are more apt to lose their heads in a
crowd or collision, but there is most al—
ways some special providence at hand to
help them. If you notice, the most disas-
trous runaways happen when some man has
the reins."
Further talk developed the fact that women
were not considerate in their management of
horses. They forgot to blanket them in win-
ter and to tie them in the shade in the sum-
mer. They sometimes use the reins as
hitching straps, and have a settled dislike to
learning proper names for harness. Not one
in a hundred could tell the difference be-
tween the surcingle and the martingale, or
had the least idea to which end of the animal
the crapper belonged, rnd if compelled to
divest a horse of its trappings Would undo
every buckle in the service, and take the
collar off over the animal’s head, to all of
which the intelligent beast would submit, as
if charmed, by being steadily talked to dur-
ing the process in the witching tones of a
woman’s voice. .
All of this may be a libél"'on the sex, but
it is certainly true that when an ofd family
horse, with a ten—minute grit, comes see—
sawing down the the street with a comically
reckless air of running away, a woman’s
head looks out from under the buggy top, a
woman’s hand guides the steed in its eccen—
tric orbit, and a woman’s voice shouts, in
distinct tones, “W-h-o-o-r-a,” at the same
moment that~the reins are jerked and the
whip applied, while pedestrians seuh to the
sidewalk in terror; However liable a woman
is to run over a cow or a street car, she will
always stop or turn out for ababy. This is
one of the instincts of her maternal heart to
which even “get up! g—la-n-g” is sacrificed.

THE BOY wno BECAME Jones: Brownian—
Of Judge Bradley it is related that he was
the eldest of eleven children brought up on
a scanty farm inlthe interior of New York.
He inherited an affection for mathematics,
and conquered algebra at home without a
teacher, in the intervals of charcoal burning,
When sixteen years old, the Troy Times
says, he met in Albany 3 good—natured man
who manifested an interest in the bright-
faced, plainly clad boy. He asked him, as
men will, what he intended to make of him-
self in life. The boy answered with grave
simplicity that he, hadn’t made up his mind
yet whether he would be President of the
United States or a judge of the supreme
court! The gentleman, not able wholly to
conceal his amused surprise at such towering
ambition lurking under such a homely jacket,
drew him out still further, and got- him to
read aloud to him. He read with such mar—
vellous appreciation and judgment that his
unknown friend told him to go on to New
York to hunt employment, but to bend all
his energies to getting a thorough education.
The young man listened to his advice, and
got a school to teach, studying during vaca—
tions.

Gen. Garfield has been their representative
for a period of eighteen years, from 1802 to
the present time. For the last two sessions
of House of Representatives be has lfeen the
leader of the Republican party in” the House.
To cali’ such a man dark horse is absurd.
The leader of the House is the natural leader
of his party when it comes into power, and
in England is almost always made’Prime
:Minister as a matter of course. ‘
The advocates of Civil Service Reform
must be hard to suit if they are not pleased
with the nomination, a man who. has never
sought office. When first elected to the
House of Representatives he was with the
troops in the field and did not know that a
nomination was contemplated until he was
informed that it was given. When last fall
his name was before the Ohio Legislature as
‘a candidate for the United States Senate, in
competition with several men of no little
eminence in national politics. his friends
were urgent that he should go to Columbus
and take rooms there to be near the Legisla-
ture at the critical moment. He refused;
he never had sought an office and would not
begin then; he remained at his farm; and
won more votes by his wise independence
than he would have won by wire pulling, for
he was elected without opposition within his
party. At the convention which has just
nominated him he steadfastly declined to be
a candidate, and was finally declared the
choice of the convention against his protests
and because of his hearty devotion to his
party and the promotion of its principles.
.At the same time he is a practical politician;
he does not belong to the “scratchers”; he
has always acted with ‘his party; he has
always been simply a Republican—not an
Independent Republican, nor a Young Re-
publican, nor a Stalwart Republican, nor a
Bloody Shirt Republican. He possesses the
political purity and integrity which Presi—
dent Hayes pessesses, and a skill in manag-
ing men which President Hayes lacks. Both
qualities were strikingly manifested in the
convention which he did so muchto harmon-
ize and which finally nominated him.
The believers in paper money, if there are
any such left in the "Republicanparty, are
the only ones likely to be dissatisfied. Gen.
Garfield has been always and consistently a
hard money man. In the time when Ohio
was most doubtful on this point he never
wavered. His record is in this respect like
that of President Hayes.
General Garfield is an earnest Christian
man,of a denomination very numerous in the
West and Southwest; has never beenasham-
ed of his faith; has often preached though
he has never been professedly a preacher;
and has always carried his religious princi—
ples into his political life. He has the re-
spect of those who differ most widely from
his political views; and the spontaneous
meeting held in the House of Representa—
tives by its members to send him their con
gratulations on his nomination was equally
credible to him and to the moral sense of the
.House.
The nomination of such a man is a rebuke
to the croakers, and a testimony to the polit-
ical power of moral sentiment in the Ameri-'
can community. For twelve years the
dominant political party has taken up and
people men whose first element of strength
lay in 'their acknowledged. moral worth.
Abraham Lincoln, U. S. Grant, Rutherford
B. Hayes and James A. Garfield, whatever
may be thought of their political principles
and their political abilities, represent the
highest moral elements and convictions of
tions. In character they compare favorably
with the foremost statesmen of foreign coun-
tries and with the foremost statesmen of our
own earlier National life. ‘
Sunstroke.
As the heated term approaches, the rules
for the prevention and treatment of sun—
stroke gain new interest. The Board of
Health has collected some information upon

and are to be circulated through the city
very soon, especially among the' laboring
classes. The followingjis the principal part
of the report :
Sunstroke is caused by excessive heat and
especially if the weather is “muggy.” It is
more apt to occur on the second, third, or
fourth day of a heated term than on the
first. Loss of sleep, worry, excitement,
close sleeping rooms, debility, abuse of stim-
ulants, predispose to it. It is more apt to
attack those working in the sun, and espec-
ially between the hours of 11 o'clock in the
forenoon and 4 o’clock in the afternoon. On
hot days wear thin clothing. Have as cool
sleeping rooms as possible. Avoid loss of
sleep and all unnecessary fatigue. If work -
ing indoors, and where there is artificial
heat—laundries, etc—see that the room is
well'ventilated.
If working in the sun, wear a light hat
(not black. as it absorbs the heat), straw,
etc, and put inside of it on the head a wet
cloth 0 ar large green leaf ; frequently lift
the hat from the head and see that the cloth
is wet. Do not check perspiration, but
Have, whenever possible,an additional shade,
as a thin umbrella, when walking, a canvas
or board cover when working in the sun.
When. much fatigued do not go to work, but
be excused from work, especially after 11
o‘clock in the morning on very hot days if
the work is in the sun. If a feeling of
fatigue, dizziness, headache, or exhaustion
occurs, cease work immediately, he down in
a shady and cool place; apply cold cloths to
and pour cold water over head and neck.
If any one is overcome by the heat send
immediately for the nearest physician.
While waiting for the physician give the
person cool drinks of water of cold black
tea, or cold coffee, if able to summary. If the
skin is hot and dry, sponge with, or pour
cold water over the body and limbs, and
apply to the head pounded ice wrapped in a
towel or other cloth. If there is no ice at
hand keep a cold cloth on the head, and pour
cold water oh it as well as on the body. If

Garfield on War.
[By Telegraph to N. Y. Herald]
CLEVELAND, Ohio, July 3, 1880.
General Garfield this afternoon drove from
his home in Mentor to Painesville, to partici-
pate in the independence celebration, in re—
sponse to a very urgent invitation from citi-
zens of that place, many of whom are his
warm personal friends. He was accompanied
by his wife, mother, Capt. C. E. Henry, of the
United States mail service; Major Bundy,
of New York, and Mr. A. G. Riddle. On
arrival at Painesville the ladies were enter—
tained by Mr. G. W. Steele, while General
Garfield took dinner with 800 soldiers who
had assembled to participate in the dedication
.of a fine monument to the soldiers of Lake.
County. In the afternoon addresses were
made by a number of prominent men of this
State, among them ex Governor ,J . D. Cox.
Lessons FROM mu MONUMENT.
General Garfield made the closing speech,
which was listened to with close attention by
as many of the 20,000 people assembled as
could get near enough to hear.” General Gar-
field said he could not fail to respond on such
an occasion, in sight of such a monument,
to such a cause, sustained by such men.
(Applause). Two questions had been sweep-
ing through his mind. What did the monu-
ment mean f and what did it teach? The
monument meant a world of memories and a
world of deeds, a world of tears and a world
pf glories. Thousands knew what it was to
offer up their new to the "conn'tryJand it was
no small thing. Suppose the country should
toy. “I want. your life‘; come upon this plat-
form and offer it,” how many would walk up?
And yet 2,000,000 men answered yes,.and a
monument stands yonder to commemorate
their answer. That is one of’ the meanings.
“But, my friends,” continued Garfield, “let
e try you a little further. To give up life is
much, for it is to give up wife anal home,
child, ambition, and all—almost all. But let
me test you further. Suppose that awfully
majestic .rm should call out and say :--“I
ask you to give up health and drag yourself,
not dead, but half alive, through a miserable
existence for long years, until you perish and
die in your crippled and helpless condition.
I ask you to volunteer to do that, and it calls
for a higher reach of patriotism and self sac—
rifice; but hundreds of thousands of your
soldiers did that, and your monument means
that also.” The General spoke further on the
subject of the horrors of war, the prison
houses of the South,'&c.,eliciting expressions
of sympathy and applause. He then refer—
red to the lesson war had taught, not of re-
venge or wrath but the grand, sweet, broad
lesson of the immortality of the truth. In
conclusion he said :—“I trust the time is not
far distant when under swords and the locked
shields of Americans, North and South, oiir
people shall sleep in peace and rise in liberty,
love and harmony under the union of our
flags of Stars and Stripes.”

Hancock at the Corners.
While the Cincinnati convention was in
session the democracy of The Corners, an-'
ticipating the nomination of Tilden, adopted
resolutions denouncing the war and all tak—
ing part in it, and calling upon the faithful
to vote against Garfield because he took part
in putting down the rebellion. The news of
Hancock’s nomination came while the meet—
ing was in session, and for a moment there
was consternation. Nasby reports in his own
way what followed :
“Hancock," growled Issaker Gavitt. "Why
Hancock wuz-a sojer which was at Gettys-
burg, and agin us.”
“Hancock be d—~d," sed Dckin Eogram
“be fit agin us from first to'last.”
It took me several minits to collect myself,
wich I did while I wuz burning the resoloos-
ens which we hed past. But I finally got
my thots together.
“My friends,” sed I, “don’t be too fast.
Come to think uv it we wuz too fast to go to
passin resolooshens till we knowed fur sertin
wat we wuz a resolootin about. We hev
committid them resolooshens to the flames,
and we won’t pass no more till we hev wat
the convenshen actooaly did, under the name
uv the president and sekretary. Then we
will pass a set wich will reafiirm wat they
hev dun with grate cheerfulniss and alakrity.
A dimekrat’s furst dooty iz to obey hiz con-
venshun, and to do wat his convenshun direx
him to do. I don't deny but wet my hart is
somewat tried by the nominashen uv n fed-
rel soljer wich bore arms agin us. But why
shoodrwe repine ? Why so shood we ques-
tion the wizdum uv the choice ? Wich seek-
shun controled that convenshen ? Paws and
reflek. Wuz it the north or the south? Ef
the north, wat difference is ther betwixt an
northern dimekrat and a southern one,
anyhow ? But the northern dimekrats
didn't hev nothing to do with it. The
convenshun was controled entirely by
the solid south. The brigadeers wuz
all ther. Ther wuz Wade Hampton. uv
blessed memory. Ther wuz all uv em. Ther
wuz present every long haired man wich hed
been prominent in the defense uv the south,
either ez a delegait or ez a inflooenshel spec—
tator. Bare this in mind, “ther wuzn’t a
nigger delegait in the entire convenshun; not
one.” It wuz a convenshun of white men,
actin for white men, and in the interest of
the white men’s party. Does it make any
difference to the corners who the figger hed is
that is put up ? Not at all. Ef Hancock is
the way, walk ye in it. Does any one sup—
pose that Hancock. wich is to be elected, ef
he is elected at all, by the solid south, is a
goin back onto the solid south after his
eleckshun? Does the 'ass know his mas-
ter‘s crib? Is he a goin to turn and rend the
hand which feeds him? Are we so stoopid
ez to suppose that the southern brigadeers
who run the Cinslnnati convenshun didn’t
know-wet they wuz about? Hevin but one
thing to do, do you suppose they didn’t go
and do it? To win we hev got to kerry some
northern states, and would it hev bin polisy
to hev put up a. brigadeer in gray to hev
skeered the northern dimocrisy whose stum-
icks are still week? We kin forgive a federal
gineral wich, for the sake uv bein president,
is willing to undo as a president all that .he
did as a soljer. Wat he did ez a sojer is
past—wat he will do es a president is yet to
come. We hev not gone back onto ourselves
in nominatin him; of he goes back upon his-
self that is his own biznis. -
My friends, it is perfectly safe to take any
federal soljer wich is willing to take a nomi-
nashun at the hands uv southern brigadeers,
yoo bet yer life.”
This is going to be a campaign of reason
and not of slander, and the sooner the Dem-
‘ocrats make up their minds to it the better
it will be for them—Tribune.
There is an evident willingness on the part
of the Republicans to concede to the Demo-
cratic ticket the full measure of credit it dc-
serves. The mistake of underating the
strength of the enemy will not be commit -
ted—Tribune.

‘ Rev. Dr. Board’s Address.
[From the Syracuse Morning Standard]
We venture to assert that few of our col~
loge commencements this year will present
to the public a more timely and able pro-
duction than the address of the Rev. Dr.
Beard, at Wicting Opera House, on Thurs—
day. His subject, “The Constructivcness of
Thought,” admirably suggested the germinal
idea of the discourse, and we may also say
the discourse very lucidly developed
the germ. Thought not only tends to pro-
ject itself into form, but by constitutional
necessity incarnates itself. God is by nature
a creator, and the universe is in no proper
philosophical sense a result of his arbitrary
decrees, but rather “the natural expression
of-omhipotent thought.” As the eminent
French philosopher, Cousin, has put it, “God
could no more be without aworld than a
world could be without God.” As the Infi-
nite Thinker he must consistently express his
thought and things, so called, the organic and
material moulds with which thought clothes
and cnshrines itself, these are measured
in their value and permanence by the thought
they incorporate. So the truth of the Al—
mighty is complete only in its complementary
embodiment between which and itself there
is an eternal fitness. So the Deity did not,
in the empty moments of his solitary eterni-
ty,construct the universe as’a temporary
fancy, or effort, just as an idle boy with his
jack-knife on a summcrday . would :whittl'e
LQsecmhaihe'could’makc; but as the boy’s
breathing is the necessary mode of his living
though his breath is neither his life nor him-
self, so creation is the natural mode of exist--
ence of the divine thought; and, what is true
of the‘diviue is equally true of the human
mind. This intimate relation betwoen
thought and its embodiment led the philo
sophic Greeks to use the same word, “logos,”
to denote the abstract reason and its external
mould, the word. Man's entire history is no
more nor less than his embodied thought.
The religious principle in man, above all
others," has conditioned and shaped his out-
ward history. It has been forever incarnat-
ing itself. True, it has led men to worship
stocks and stones, serpents and insects, and
apes, yet even the superstitious ignorance
which has suspected a God behind and with-
in every phenomenon, is nearer to the final
truth of psychology, than that cultured (?)
atheism “which accounts all as the chance
product of divine force” without a Supreme
Thinker. Man is invested with an intuition
of God. This must incarnate itself: All hu—
man conceptions of Deity are incomplete;
many viciously false. But as the concept, so
will be the incarnation. The Christian be-
liever assumes that, Christ is the express
image of the Father’s glory, the incarnation
of the highest conception of God possible to‘
man. The last man will be still approximat-
ing the thought of God embodied in Jesus
Christ. So from Adam in Paradise to the
witness of the final conflagration we are all
partialists in religion ; each age, race,individ-'
us], by a necessary law, casting its religious
thought into varying external moulds. The
same principle holds good in the world’s vast
constructions of law, philosdphy, science,lit-‘
erature and social and civil politics and insti-
tutions. .
If then we would arrive at a correctinter—
pretation of life, we need to settle clearly “is
relation of thoughts and things. - Cousin was
wont to say to his disciples that the whole
problem of modern philosophy was fine of
method. The germ orcrror in Herberti'Spen-
eer and all modern materialism is found just
here. This school would teach us that things
are first and thoughtscome after ;'thst things -
produce or project thoughts as shadows of
themselves. Here it comes into inevitable
conflict with man’s highest verifying faculty,
the consciousness.
us, short of an over whelming bias in favor
of a preconceived theory, can explain the ac-
ceptance of such a doctrihe," The world’s
common sense rejects it. Thoughts antecede
and necessitate their bodily counterparts,
the soul. We need "not deny that the soul
comes to the complete consciousness of itself
in its bodily encasements, that the thought is
only perfect in its corporation, yet to knoio
self completely and to create selfareas widely
different as the finite and the infinite.
How, then, is a couect philosophy here to
bear practically upon education. Clearly in
this way: If we would have things we must
have thoughts first to originate them. Life’s
utilities and beauties must spring from this
source alone. When colleges give to the
world thinkers, then its living thOught must'
and will clothe itself in loftier forms and or.
ganizations, and it is industrial arts and in-
ventions, will enlarge this one world into ten
thousand times its present dimensions. - So
that if we may not inhabit ten thousand
worlds we may yet live in this rendered ten
thousand times as large as it was when the
ante-diluvians walked upon it. One thought
in the mind of James Watt has increased the
aggregate steam power of Great Britain alone
to the manual capability of more than four
hundred million men ; that is more than twice
the number of males capable of labor on the
globe; while by the same thought the aggre-
gate steam power throughout the world
equals the male capacity for manual work of
about seven worlds like ours. This is the
practical outcome and embodiment of a
thought on steam. The formidable arithme~
tic of the thought of one day on electricity,
it would be folly for us to attempt to forecast.
Let not the colleges,therefore,and the peo-
ple that build the colleges, be afraid of ab—
stract ions. These must precede concretions.
We are warned not to be carried away by the
loud thought of shallow ’philosopby‘which
would turn thought adrift, and convert our
colleges into mere cyclopcdias of forms and
facts. As the learned doctor well remarked,
“in doing this our colleges would be runnino
a very unequal race, with the daily new -
papers.” . . -
Mr. Leckey, the historian of European
morals, makes bold to say that “the American
inventor of the first anaesthetic has done more
for the real happiness, of mankind, than all
the moral‘philosophers fromSocrates to J. S.
Mill." This is a very specious statement of'
a falsehood. We find for ourselves 'a very
complete and satisfactory answer to it in the
clear words of Dr. Beard : “If the use of
living censists in exaltation and noble enjoy:
ment, the things which strike these ends
most directly and those which contribute to . V
the higher ranges of life, have in themselves
the higher values and are the most practical.”
Of this the democrats may be quite sure,

There were doubtless many republicans in
1872 who would have preferred to vote for
Horace Greeley, but they did not do so be-
cause they saw that he was in the hands of
democratic managers. So-thcre are many
rcgublican soldiers .who would, on personal
grounds, take pleasure in voting for General
Hancock, but when they recognize that
General Hancock is. as much a democrat as
Mr. Tildcn or Mr. Thurman, and committed
to the policy of the democratic party. they
will decline wrote for him as they declined
to vote for General McClellan in 1864, and
will vote for General Garfield in 1880 ‘ as
they voted for Lincoln in. 1864.—-Boeton

“They are the seeds-"a: ;'4
Of holy deeds,“ , "
Which God in Heaven,
To men hath given;
Willi flowers growing sweet and rare.”
“This shining seed in shape like a dove,
Is the germ of that wondrous tree called Love,
. A Paradise,
With sapphire skies,
Unmarred by strife,
It. will make of life;
In all those upper realms of bliss,
There is found no fairer tree than this."
“I believe Love’s sweet and rosy flowers.
Were the first to bloom in Eden—bowers,
It grows so tall,
That great, and small,
Can climb on its branches, strong and broad,
‘To the loving merciful heart of God.”
“And this is Hope, a wondrous vine
Whose tendrils, the gates of Heaven twine,
Castles of air,
Its branches bear,
And in its flowers of starry gold,
The young, bright visions of life behold."
“This seed of Faith is hard to sow,
- It grows, where only Love will grow,
Its buds of blue,‘
' In sweetness strew,
The way the dear Lord Saviour trod,
And if followed,will lead one straight to God."
The fairest flowers of all we see,
Are the snow-white flowers of Purity.
All maidens fair,
These blossoms wear;
And in their hearts, like stainless snow,
Or stars of silver, they climb and grow.”
“Humility, Virtue, Patience strong,
I am sowing here, and there,
All do not grow;
And some grow . slow;
Some hearts are nothing but rocks and stone,
And some with briars are overgrown.” '
Sower, have you not some rare seeds,

“There is a vine,
Of growth divine,
Which I plant with care, if plant I can,
In the heart of woman, child and man.”
Under its boughs, the weak find rest,
_In its leaves, the sick are healed and blest;
Who drinkof the wine,
From this sacréd Vine,
That treasure shall find, of worth. unpriced,
The Pardon and Love of Holy Christ."

The democrats at Washington,where Gen.
eral Garfield is best known, are beginning
to find that the campaign of scandal which
has been begun against the republican pres-
idential candidate will not pay, and that
they will have to take very much broader
' ground if they intend to make a serious
effort to carry the election. This is the po~
sition of the democratic press of the city.
The Sunday Gazette, for instance, the most
radical of bourbon organs, in speaking of
the policy of the campaign so far, says that
the democrats will have to resort to other
means to secure the election of their candi-
date. The Sunday Capital, Donn Piatt ed-

“General Garfield, personally considered,
is singularly pure and upright. He is one
of the few men in public life who can look
his beautiful little wife and lovely children
in the face without shame. We say this
advisedly, for we have known Garfield inti-
mately all his public life, and we can advise
attempts at blackmailing Garfield’s character
will be signal failures, and will be met by
protests from such eminent democrats as the
Hons. Jeremiah Black, Allen Thurman and
Justice Field, who. have aleady put them-
selves on record. in his behalf. Garfield's
purity is so thorough that it gives him a
perilious confidence in men, and has gotten
him into trouble precisely as a confidjng boy
gets into scrapes. In that Credit Mobilier
affair. for example, we know, and have so
testified that at the very time it was claimed
that he was scheming to enrich himself
through Ame’s rascality, he was shinning
about Washington striving to borrow $300
to pay rent, and he so ignorant of the com—
monest financial process that he did not
know how to negotiate, an ordinary note of
hand. He has not only lived in the open air
but has occupied positions where, like other
leaders, he could have winked himself into
millions. He holds to. day the honored po.
sition of being the only poor man among
political leaders.”
