Necessity.

“And must you go away ?” he sighed.
“Ah me! will misty dawu
Glimmer for me across the tide
The same when you are gone ?

“Will golden noon illume the sand,
Or moonlight blanch to snow?
Will there be 1'- ght on sea or land
0r joy when you shall go? ,

“Ab! linger here, my gentle maid!
Forget your roving mood!

Do not‘forsake the rural shade l
Abide within the wood.”

“'l‘here‘s very little wood, you know,”
She said, in touts of ice. ,
“And, were there much, I still should go ;
I’ve worn my dresses twice." , ‘

‘ STATE POLITICS.

 

The Democratic ticket begins with “Scour
Torr,” ends with “LONG TOM,” and the mov-
ing Spirit in its behalf will be “01.1) TOM."
-New London Day.

When the gentleman who wrote the demo-
cratic platform penned the resolution stating
that “the life and character of the candidates
of a political patty ought to be in themselves
a statement of its principles a guaranty of
their faithful execution," it was under the
firm belief that the Luzon B. Morris slate
was beyond all danger of being smashed.
And when he added, “if they are not,
defeat is rather a party benefit than an in-
jury” was he thinking :of Waller ?—Ncw
London Day. .

But if the nomination [Mn Waller’s] is
frivolous one, there is no cause of com-
plaint against the platform. That is a most
portentous document. It rivals the Penta-
teucb in length and exceeds the penitential
psalms in gravity. Two whereas of one
sentence ”each, the whole‘ being a quarter of
a column long, are followed by eight declar-
alions. The entire series would make about
two columns of this type. The wonder of
it is that the reading of it /was finished in

_ time to permit any other business to bedone.
This tedious and sprawling attempt to de-
fine the principles of the party closes with
the final statement that after all “the life
and character of the candidates of a political
party ought to be in themselves a statement
of its principles and a guarantee of their
faithful execution.” No doubt the voters
will act on this hint and 1, ve up any idea of
reading or understanding the platform. For
that matter, it is not credited that any dem-
ocrat who has anything else to do will un-
dertake to wade through 'it. If it were
made a requisite qualificationJor voting to
be able to read and understand this formid-
able document, it would disfranchise pretty
nearly .the entire party in the state—New
York Tribune. ‘

The uncertainties that surround the open-
ing of the political season have not been
cleared away. The nominations have been

made, the conventional restatements of party

doctrine have been set forth for the better
information of the intelligent voter, the lines
have been drawn as sharply as possible in
these piping days of peace and prosperity,

and the campaign now begins in downright.

earnest. -

The democratic convention has been oblig-
ing enough to make;our work une‘. pectediy
easy. It permitted itself to be boomed into
the commission of one of those hasty follies
opportunity, such as it.was,;it proceeded
with true democratic faculty to fritter it
away. It did what republicans wanted it to
do, b'nthad not dared .to hope that it would
do. it nominated Mr. Thomas M. Waller of
New London. In doing that, it has of.
fectually dashed the hopes of every long-
headed democratic politician in the state.
They knew that ‘when Mr. Burr told the
convention Mr. Waller could not get the con-

- servative votes which the ,party- needed tc-.

win in this, election, he was speaking‘ the
words of truth and soberncss. Of course
the ire trying new to put the best face pos-
sible on the matter; but their heats are heavy.
within them.

The one chance of a democratic success
in Connecticut :this year lies, not inthe
alleged enthusiasm bf the Irish-born voters
for Mr. Waller, not in the alleged disposi-
tion of certain German born voters to swal-
low their ,principles with their beer, but
solely in republican oyer confidence and in-
activity. There is the one danger to be
guarded against.-

The republicans of Connecticut have no
right to be content with a small majority this
year. We are happily free from this dissen-
sions which threaten temporary reverses in
one or two of the states, we owe it to our-
selves, to send the republiccn majority in
Connecticut this year well up in the thou-fl
nude—Hartford Com-ant. ~

In Rochester, me; Emir... an example
Worth following in some other, citicsghas
been set. The manytracks of the New York
Central railroad have run for long distances
through‘some of the? most.}i_mportant;streets
of Rochester,‘ and in some places there'are
thirteen‘tracks. -It required forty gatemen
or fiagmen to‘watch the crossings'and there
has alWays,.been great danger in-« spite of
them. _ First and last _a good many shocking

accidents have happenedbecause of the cars.
After much agitation an agreement was final.
ly reached between thecitvv and the railroad.
The tracks-are now all elevated twenty feet
above the roadway. There are no more grade,
crossings and everything is safe and appar-'
ently satisfactory. The station has been
moved and now. the .daily papers have to go
to press ten minutes earlier in order to catch
the trains, but this seems to be" accepted
without much grumbling. I‘he work-cost
$2,500,000, but ithas some financial Z'eompen.
satiensi The wages 'of forty flagmeu are
saved, repreienting prob’ably-fthe yearly in-
terest on half a million .dollars,and there is
an end to all lawsuits for damages at cross-
ings. ' I

The"Detroit Post and Tribune has an
article on “The Value of.B.iver and Harbor
Improvements," showing what has been
gained to the people of Michigan and the
northwest by the improvement of the rivers
and harbors, and particularly by the deepen-
ing of the channel 'of St. Clair river so that
vessels drawing six feet may pass. The
Tribunegives figures of the reduction in
cost of conveying grain from Lake Michi-
ganand Lake Superior in consequence of
this and other improvements of rivers and
harbors, showing very large returns for a
small outlay.

The Egyptian war hall got to be paid for,
and the English people are just now interest-
edin discussing how their share of the ex-
pense is to be paid. It is said that the gov-
ernment intends tq put the bulk of the bill

I upon income tax payers. This willof course

make an outcry, but as the great majority of
the English people do not pay the income
tax they will probably cheerfully support Mr.
Gladstone in this matter. it is estimated in
government circles that the cost of the war

I to England will be at least $50,000,000, but

Sir Wilfrid Lawson insists that it will be at
least $100,000,000.

Not exactly quenched: “You know 1am
a member of the fire department," said Biggs,
"and if I find you young spark in the house
it will be my duty to put him on " “But,
father,” re lied his daughter. “if you _do,
like as not shall have a newfiamc within a
“week." Biggs limbered up immediately.—

The Manhattan Hay '
change has been opened in New York: Six
hundred men are dealers in boy alone ruthat
city. In 1881 the New York Central railway
brought fourteen hundred carloads of hay
into the city. It is said that the New York
hay crop of that year has brought more men-
ey than the crop of wheat, oats, barley and

tigue; but no one of our party,was sorry
one morning to be'met on the1iver’s bank
by an engineer, who brought a package of
letters, and the information that the camps
of the Chinese graders on the railroad were
just across the river. that there was a wagon
road to the end of the track, and that he had
a skiff and two rowers to set. us across the
turbulent current. We had traversed the
whole dist'auce (six hundred miles) between
the ends of the railroad, which are advanc-

‘ ing to meet next year on the summitpef the

Rocky Mountains. The news t at we
should see a locomotive that .very day wrs
rec~ived with enthusiasm. It mefint beds,
baths, clean clothes, newspapers, telegrams,
napkins, silver forks, and a hundred other
things never noticed or appreciated until out
of reach. We rearianged our luggage, be-
stowed our bedding upon the half-breed
Indian, the Kentucky negro, and the white

got over the river, and were soon driving
through the camps of three thousand Chinese
labors. It was Sunday, and work on the
grade was suspended. The canvas town
swarmed with men. Some were having their
heads 'shaved, others wér'e combing and
winding their pig-tails; others, strippedto
their waist, were enjoyieg a spongc_bath.
One man was on,bis knees going through
some religious ceremony over a chicken be-
fore dissecting it for the pot. There were
Chinese stores, Chinese restaur.:nts, and
Chinese gaming tents. ’ For fifteen miles the
woods were literally full of Mongolians.
Not a feature of their Asiatic ilfa do they
abandon, save that, from the necessity of
working in mud and dust, they wear Amer:
ican boots. Their basket hats, blue blouses,
and loose trousers are supplied by Chinese
merchants, anda large portion of their feed
-their riceand dried fish, and all their
sweetmeats and dainties—comes across the
Pacific. The road was lined with Chinamen
driving their fat hogs.to the camps to be
slaughtered for the Sunday dinner, or may
ing bundles and boxes, and boards for tent-
fiooring, suspendedfo ba'tnboo poles, balanc-
ed on the shoulders in the exact style of the
picture on the tea-chests. .

The Chinese laborers on the railer earn
one dollar and sixteen cents a day, and are
hired by gangs of fozty from agents of the
Six Companies in San Francisco.
uai estimate of the effectiveness of their
labor is that three Chinamen are equal to two
white men; but the superintendent of con-
struction on the' railroad asserts that he
prefe:s the Chinese, man for man, to sue
white labor as can be had on the Pacific
coast. ,

The railroad operations have caused to
grow up at Cabinet Leading, a grotesque and
hideous town of tents and shanties clinging
to the hill-side, among the pines,-—a town
subsisting on the wants and weakness of
the working men, and fiannting in the faces
facilities for all the courses forms of vice.
Across the river from this pandemonium of
‘fro'ntier di. t, drunkenness, and debauchery,
is another transient railroad to town, where
the engineers and overseers live, with their
wives'and children, in clean tents, prettily
emboweted with evergreens.

Last spring a church~deacon residing in an
interior town secured a man of all work from
Detroit, and, the place being an easy one
and the pay good. the man was weltpleased
and? took a great interest in his employer’s
Wellfare. Some six weeks ago the church to
which the deacon belonged had to send three
delegates to meet three from another church
to arrange for a pie-nic. Daniel heard the
deacon remark that he would like tobe one
of the delegates, and that was enough for
him. There was to be a meeting of the
congregation in the evening to select the
three, and a score of people had scarcly got
together when Daniel walked in, slammed
his hat down, and remarked; “Gentlemen,
this caucus will now come to order, and by
your: leave I will act as chairman until a big-
ger man ‘is appointed l" The people were, of
course, dumbfounded, but Daniel felt as if
he was once more on the beat of the “old
Eighth ward,” and he continued: “Gentle-
men, :we have met to;nominate three dele-
gates, and it will be in order for somebody
to} mention the name of Deacon Blank as the
first." Nobody did, and Daniel’s dander be-
gan to risE‘. “Ah! this is a cut and dried at:
fair, thin, is it i’” he roared, as he gave his
but another slam. "However, I pronounce
the deacon elected and if anybody—i" Here
one of the members arose to make an ex-
planation.‘or to ask for one, but Daniel de-
clared him out of order, and cleared the room
and adjourned the meeting. At the door, as
he was going out, he ,met the deacon, and,
giving his hand a wring, he enthusiastically
cried: “I've carried the caucus for ye, dea-
con, and the opposition have been smashed

a candidate through, or die a-trying l”—-De-

The Jackson, Ga., Herald relates that a
duel with horsewhips took place in Jackson
county afew days ago between two men
named Hill and Goss. New, buggy whips
were provided, the parties stood about five
feet apart, and the combatants went to work
vigorously. Occasionally one or the other
wo'uldjback a little from his line, but would
.soon come up again to— the scratch. After
wearing out $57 worth of buggy whips they
were completely tired out, and agreed to
quit. éHill’s back was terribly covered with

‘the we'lts made by the lath, and it is said he

was made seriously ill. Gloss was not injured
so severely. ,

pened to be all strangers to each other,
but I noticed at once that aclergymau was
of the party. I was occupied With a pen-
derous article in the Times, when the
. sound of my own name drew my atten-
tion to the fact that a conversation was
gqmg' forward among the three other per-
sons 1n the carriage with reference to
myself and my books. he of the ladies
was _perusing ‘Bleak ouse,’ then lately
pubhshed, and the cler man had com-
menced a conversation wrth the ladies by
asking what book they were reading.
On being told the author’s name ’and the

Ehould be willing to take ugothc grilling

Both the ladies showe great ‘surprisc at
the low estimate the clergyman put upon

tomed to road, to say the least, with a
certain degree of pleasure. They w to

ment, behind m‘ncwspaper, to stories
of myself, which, if they had been true,
would have consigned any man too. prison
for life. After my fictitious biographer
had occupied himgelf for nearly an hour
with the recital of my delinquencies and
crimes, I very quietly joined in the con-
versation. Of course I began by modestly
doubting some statements which I had
just heard touching the author of ‘Bleak
House,’ and other unimportant works of
it similar character. The man stared at
me, and evidently considered my appear-
ance on the conversational stage an .in-
trusion and an impertinence.

“‘You seem to spcnlr.‘ I said, ‘from
personal knowledge of Mr.

“He rather evaded the question, but,
following him up closely, I compelled
him to say that he had been talking, not
_ from his own knowledge of the author
in question, but he said he knew for a
certainty that (firefly statement he had
made was a tru one. I then became
more earnest in my inquiries for proofs,
which he arrogantly declined giving. ‘

intently to what was going forward. An
author they had been accustomed] to read

rst time in their hearing, and gthey were
waiting to learn what I had to say in re-
futation of the clergymau’s charges. I
was taking up his vile stories one by one,
and stamping them as false in every par;
ticular, when the man grew furious, and
asked me if I knew Dickens personally.

“I replied, ‘Perfectly Well; no man
known him better than I do, aqd all your
stories about him, from beginning to end,
to these ladies, are unmitigated lies.’

“The man became livid with rage, and
asked for my card.

‘ “ You shall have it,’ I said coolly, and,
taking out one, I presented it to him,
without bowing.

. “We were just then fmnring the sta-
tion in London, so that I was spared a
longer interview with my‘truthful com-
panion; but if I were to live a hundred
years, I should not forget the abject con-
dition into which the narrator of my
cnmes was instantly plunged. His face

refused to utter words. He seemed like
a writed vegetable, and. as if his legs be-
longed to somebody else. The ladies be-
came aware of the situation at once, and,
bidding them ‘good-day,’ I stepped smil-
mgly out of the carriage. Before I could-
gct away from the station the man had
mustered up strength sufficient to follow
me, and his apologies were so nauseous
and craven, that I pitied him from my
soul. I left him with this caution: ‘Be—
fore you make charges against the charac—
ter of any man again, about whom you
know nothing, and of whose 'works you
are so utterly ignorant, study to be a
seeker after Truth, and avoid lying as
you would eternal perdition.’ ”

 

SHOOTING A STUFFED
“SQUIBREL.

There is in the neighborhood of Ridge-
wood an old gentleman who was once a
Nimrod among the hunters. He could

of the tallest hickory, nine shots out of
ten. Indeed there was no limit-to his
skill. He has been renewing the sports
of his youth for the past few weeks, but
aslsquirrels were scarce, and his eyesight
was dim, his game bag was not well filled
on his return home. He has a mischicv~
ous rascal of a grandson, who would ever
play pranks on him, and as he wins mean-
dering through the woods one day, the
youngster got into the path before him
and perched a stuffed squirrel on the limb
of atrec, tying it fast. As the old man
come near, the youngster showed himself
and called attention to the squirrel. The
old man looked. “Sure enough there is
a squirrel,” he remarked. “Be still; I’ll
fetch him.” And taking careful aim he
drew the trigger. When the smoke blew
away there:sat the squirrel with his fail
over his back, not in the least disturbed.
The old msfli loaded his gun with great
care and blazed away again. The squirrel
stood this fire with as much equanimity
as the first. only his tail seemed to be
broken and had fallen over his side. The
old man was nonplussed. He did not,
howover, see his grandson, who was roll-
ing in convulsions of laughter behind a
convenient log. He had become warmed
up to the sport and thought of nothin
else but fetching that squirrel.
‘ shot cut the cord that bound the squirrel
to the tree and he fell, not with the usual
heavy thud so well known to sportsmen,
but bouncing several feet ,into the air.
This aroused the- old man's‘ suspicious,
and; going up to it, he found the true
nature of the sell. His change of posi-
' affectionate randson, who was tearing
up the ground in his effort to laugh With-
oht making a'noise. A realizing sense
of the situation crept over the mind of
the venerable man. He cast.his e es on
the ground; they fell on a piece 0 shin-
gle, which he picked up, and approach-
ing the convulsed boy unawares. he
affectionately fanned him a couple of
times on the seat of his brooches. This
brought the youngster to a perpendicular
and he took to his heels, thereby escap-
ing more loving demonstrations. _ The
old gentleman could not help relishing
the joke, and tells the circumstance wrth
greater good will than one would sup-
pose. The boy is just ten years old, and
his grandfather declares that he Will at
some time be President of the United
States. He now has most unbounded
faith in the abilities of that boy.

SALTING STOCK.

Is it necessary to salt cattle and
horses on pastures? I observe many
people throw down quantities of salt
to cattle and horses on their pasture
grass during the summer season in
this country. I have never seen such
a practice in Great Britain, unless
sometimes upon hay in buildings, or
when storiutr it away in haying time.
Also, it.is Frequently used in cooked
foodrfor cattle and horses. I ask, is
there any necessity or benefit derived
from its use on pastures during the
summer season? If a necessity, how
do the wild animals get salt on their
grass? w. 0. [Salt is admitted by
physiologists to be necessary in .a
'slight degree to the health or thrift
of all domestic animals. England 13
an island, surrounded by salt water,
and stock does not seem todesrre it
in localities n or the sea coast. But
away from th coast all animals crave
it in a. greater or less degree; and
wool-growing and dairying would be
less profitable if the sheep and cows
should not get salt regularly and fre-
quently. This is absolutely true, salt
being a necessity summer‘ and winter.
Deer and other wild animals get salt
from the numerous brackish springs
called “licks,” and hunters have al-
ways taken advantage of the desire
of wild animals for salt, by lying in
wait at these licks, toshoot the game
frequenting such places. It is not
necessary to throw the salt upon the
pastnrq—this being done usually for
convenience. Dairymcn give salons-
ually every day at milkm time.
Some keep salt in troughs. un er con-
venient sheds, to which the $100k 11”
