When years of sunshine long and sweet Passed lightly o'er our youthful heads,- Dncared, unnumbered as ouf feet Trlpned gaily o'er llfe'a flowery beds. t.i 0, visions gone Yet dimly soon Through mists of Intervening years Like Spring's soft fields of em'ruld green, Viewed through the veil of winter's tears. As Mertjcry paints each youthful face ' Upon thu canvass of the mind, Clothed In the Innocence and grace Of all the virtues e'er detlued; 'Tis hard to tbluk that some who now Are deep In wretchedness aud crime, Are those with whom yon used, U bow And li-p a prayer In childhood's titco. O, well 't would 14, could we but hide 'the deeds which, wrought In latter years, Would cause the ghost of youth to chide, Or sorrow weep unwonted tears.

Goodman of tho ;Central Pacific, says the San Francisco Examiner, states that tho road will not grant excursion tickets, for tho reason that if any concession was made, the regu- ar passenger business would be ruin id. since no one would go East with out an excursion ticket, which he would sell at Omaha or somo point not far beyond. Another difficulty occurred in the impossibility of satis fying the public with any reasonable reduction.. .In the matter of Exposi tion freights it i probable that all the roads ot the country will substan tially concur that is, to carry arti cles intended for exhibition to Phila delphia at tho usual races, and, if they remain unsold, retur" them free of charge. Mr. Slubbs, General f reigbt Agent of the. Central Pacific, states that the impression having prevailed in China and Japan that Asiatic freights were to bo carried free, they will be carried as far as Ogden, and probably to Omaha. Tl roads east of the Missouri are disinclined to ac cede to the arrangement. .'Seventeen carloads, comprising the. Japanese buildings and other articles, bave al ready gone forw3id, and.it i sup posed there "will be enough irora Cln ca to make forty carloads more. This is equivalent to three full trains to Tmrkw, or two from tLat tott to Ogden.

The Great mi.rhler of Grant's Admin istration. From th. Nation. We, for our part, see far more dan cer to tho Government in popular fa miliarity with or indifference to the evils which Grant's Administration has fostered, than in the possibility of tno election ot any man lor .three terms. It must not bo forgotten, in estimating or in criticising his politi cal career, that is tho very fact of his strong claim on popular gratitude which has made his two terms so do moralizing, and it is almost always by men with claims ou popular gratitude that tho seeds of political ruin are sown. If lio had not been a successful general in dark days, he would have become odious before 1871!: but with the halo of tho "war about him, not only liavo'q terrible number of faults been forgiven hiin. but thov have como to loco tho appearance of faults, and; take on that of virtues. No or dinary President could, for instance, havo been allowed to given a Govern ment like this a Mussulman flavor, by appointing high publio functionaries through pure personal caprice. When t resident Urant first began to make extraordinary, and, as it seemed scandalous, selections for places m tho pnblio service, his friends maintained that wo must not reproach him, that ho was a simple niinucd man, who M as necessarily in this mat ter in tho hands of tho Senators and Representatives : but ho speedily dis sipated this theory by appointing Simmons of Doston in defiance of the Representative of tho district, and Mo Donald of St. Louis in defiance of tho whole Stato delegation. In short, he has administered the Government neither on the old American "spoils" system nor on the new "civil service reform" system, but ou tho Sultanio or Turkish system, which says : "I Ilka Mustapha ; put tho Vizier s robes n nrin,;ft!p.,g!.vo anyoouy ,.wno sys o is a thief OHchuirdrod blows At ilh a' stick." . - .-" ... -, . Freedom of the Precaa. Robert Coll ver savs on this nucs- tiou : "I stand" up for tho perfect and entiro freedom of tho press. I want to see it frank and fearless about men and things, no matter who gets hurt. I tave no sympathy with tho sentimon- tal squcamishncss that would cover up tliini'S which ought to be revealed; hero the press can do a work before which tho pulpit generally quails and falls back, coming up at 'last, if it comes at all, among tho reserves, And here tho press, or, rather, tho no bler part of it, is doing a peerless work in grappling with tho awful dis ease that has seized us, of public and personal corruption. And if writers for tho press aro so sure of their own immaculate perception as to bo able to lay baro, with a good conscience, tho weakness and littleness that hides somewhere in us all, let that bo done also. IVe may think of Sterne, who wept over a dead-ass, and was as hard as a stone to his poof mother; or ot that Mackenzie who wrote tho "Man of Feeling," and was told by his wife one day, when he came homo from a bull bait, that he had put all his feel ing into his book. Thoughts like these wil come as tho birds come. And somo writers for the press may be like somo ministers finger posts, Eointing Out the way they never take; ut the finger post, also, is indispen sable in its way. I say not one word, then, against a free and fair discus sion ot our mutual littleness, even With the littleness of these men left out. We aro all tho better lor it, whether they are or not."

Unitkd Status' Sknatk Ciiamiikp., Washington, Feb. 11, 1876. " Hon. J. A. Chapman, Mayor of tho City of Portland, Portland, Oregon Mi Dear Sir; llorewith please find a communication from lion. C.'li. Wright, of Philadelphia, President of tho Northorn Pacilio Railroad Co., Writing me Saturday on receipt of a dispatch informing him of the passage through tho U. S. Sonato of tho bill extending tho time for tho comple tion of tho Northern Paoifio railroad. The communication explains itself, and will give greater courngo to our pcoplo on the northwest coast. I havo had frcquuut convarsations with General Wright, Geuoral Moorehead, of Pittsburgh, and others, nony., tho leading officials and patties', most largely . interested : In tho Northorn Paoifio Hailroad Co... A'hoy all assure me, in the 'mostpositive terms, that tboy expect, Under the .prosont man agement, to bo able to scoure capital and proceed at aa early day with. the construction of tho road. Tho '.bill whiob has recently passod the Senate grants an extension ot eight years. This extension, however, does not apply to that portion of tho road from Pen d'Oreillo Lake to Pugot Sound, but ouly to tho main line of the road via. the valley of the Columbia river, Portland, Oregon, to 'Puget Sound.' The bill likewise 'provides fully for tho protection of all 'Bottlers within the limits of tlie railroad grant. Very sincerely your friend, , John II. Mitchell. OrrrcYN. P. R. R.

I feel gatitficd that, witbihe bill perfected, we cau secure capital and go on with the road. I hope to. seo you tho lat ter part of the coming Week. My board convenes on Wednesday next, and some of us will go to Washing ton soon after. Very truly yours, C. 1$. Wkiuiit, Pres't. Tlio Two Heroes of Social New York. New York Correspondence of th. Baltimore Ameri can. Two persons seen everywhere this Winter, and who attract a great deal of attention, are Mr. Joaquin Miller and Colonel Nicholas Smith, the bus band of Ida Greeley. Colonel Smith is always in attepdance on his wife ; Joaquin (no one would know him as .Mr." Miller) was thought at one time to come to New York in search of ono, but as a fortune hunter, )i that was part of the programme, he does not seem destined to be a success. He cannot bolp making straight for tho prettiest girl m the room any more than be . can help talking very tender .poetry oat of his eyes when be reaches her side. Colonel Smith is . undeniably the handsomest man anywhere, lie is gifted also with that wonderful man ner which, for the time being, makes the person to whom he is talking, be it man or woman, think bio or her self the one object ia the -world in which or in whose opinions and ideas he is most interested. He ia a pic turesque talker, full of that peculiar mixture of originality, chivalry and honesty which aeems to rjiting'iih the natives of the border E'jites.0 He says he made op his mind to marry Miss Ida Greeley, if be could get her, before be ever saw her, Jrutn the newspaper account other goodness and devotion to her pireuU. ' The Itebcl Flags. : .,'The Shroveport (Louisiana) Tuna says: "During our civil war the several seceded States used their several State flags. In March, 1801, tho Confederate Congress adopted the Bo-callod stars aud bars,' com posed of three horizontal burs oi equal width, the middle ono white, tho others red, with a bluo uuion con taining nine white stars arranged in a circle. The resemblanco ot this to the 'stars and stripes' led to confusion and mistakes in the Sold, and in Sep tember, 1801, a battle flag was adopt ed, a rod field charged with a blue saltior, with a narrow border of white, on which were disp aved thirteen white stars. In 1863 tho 'stars and are' wore supplanted bv a flacr with a whito field, having tho battle flue for a union. The liar? of 1863 wna found defio ent in service, it being liable to be taken for a flacr of truce : aud on February 4. 1805. the outer half of tho field beyond tho union was covered with a vertical red bar. This was tho last Hug of tho Confederacy. St-lmra on lllalue. Carl Schiira in tlie St. Louis Westliche Post. ' Mr. Blame has made himself re. sponsible.' for tho re-opening of tho mischievous and idlo dobates that, fur from subserving any publio intortBt, oniy servo to; keep alivo the old quar rels, aim 10 employ passion u ammu nition in partisan strife, and to divnrt by a most unwholesome excitement tho attention ot tho people from those questions, the solution of which are now of prime nooesaity. . He has ex posed himself to the rave suspicion that he has opened Old founds simply to mako political capital for himself and his party tor the presidency. And it ho desired to mako political capital for himself ho must already realize his mistake. He is a man of great talent, and has many zealous friends; but a party will be very slow in thoir Centennial year to oomiuato that man for tho Prosidoucy who has made himself the first violent dis turber of tho national jubilee. Tho third torm is not tho only evil against whioh patriotic people revolt. What is now dufQMidod is to oonciliato on- tuity, not to g6ad it, and no candidato can provo himself strong who, iu tho. contest oi opinions, introduces tho bitterness of porsonal passion by tho. reckless challenge of tho onnonnnt.
