Addres Tan ft CX, KETI'BXIXG, ' ; Mary E. Bradley la Sunday Afternoon. Lord, where Thy many mansions be ' Hast Thou a little room for me, Whose restless feet these many days By and forbidden paths have trod, And wandering in uncertain ways Have missed the way that leads to God? Lord, is there any room fur me Who, sorrowing, would return to Thee? Far have I strayed, till tossod about On fears that would not be cfest out For all the subtle theories That men have framed, whereiu to find For troubled hearts a doubtful ease, And freedom for a willful mind Thy word, once hidden in my breast, Forever robbed the night of rest. . ' I heard its still, small voice above - AU ether voices not in love, ' " As in the old, sweet day of eace, But in a tone of sad complaint: " Why art thou swift to seek release From easy yoke and safe restraint? Why hast thou taken for thy guide False lights that lure thee from My side!" . Lord, if I heard, and in despite Of warning chose the fair, false light If, heedless, I Thy spirit grieved, And slighted as an idle tale Ixve such as no man hath conceived What bite repentance can avail? Jlow shall I dare to lift my face Once more within Thy holy place? I know not, verily ; and yet With doubts perplexed and fears beset, And the sad heart unsatisfied, Lord, I remember what sweet rest I did discover at Thy side ; With yearnings not to be expressed I long to walk one more with Thee; Lord, bant Thou any room for me? CRA.M AND HIS BUGLERS. The San Francuco Chronicle thinks lliis way about the greut tliird-tcrmer and his parasites : General G rani's old Attorney-Gen eral, Oregon Williams, is tlio latest consideiable authority that Grant is, or is to be, put into tiainiii"; for that third term which lias so often becu talked of. II u is. they say, like thp second Ctcsar, the only man who can save the country, ilis European lour, we are told, has much increased 1)1$ popularity at home, as it tbe adu lations of a patenlcQiobility and the flatteries of Kings and Queens M ere passport to the conndence and af fection of a people wLose institutions train them to a hatred, of monarchy and a contempt of the flunkies ot Kings apd Quoi ns. "But at the same t.nje," say tLese trainers, 'Grant don't waul to run for the oflice, and courts the indolent repose ot private life." Thai is almost the identical language that the most adroit oi all politicians, M;u';cuu8, put into UiG mouth of his master, Octavius, when he was plotting tor a life estate in imperial honors and powers. Siill, wtt 310 willing to believe that Graut does not wunl a third term, and that il is only such parasites as Williams . j ... i : WHO acBites ins re-election, iu . tuu hope that a fourth and a tilth, and auy number ot terms, will be easier to gel than a third. There are men in Ibis country who would cul the republic's .. .i -!.. i :. ..... 31 lor au ojwce,uiiu it onsuioui artmie that, during the Presi dency, this class swarmed about him like flies around au open moiasses barrel. The number has not dimin ished since uis retirement. In tact it is greater man ever anu nuugnur. Tliev like molasses, and can see no way to get a tresh barrel opened than bv a third term for the man who could not or would not see that they were only flies. . As a civil officer ho was quite out of place and wauling in capacity. It was among hjs greatest detects as President that he had no judgement of men lor civil service. Perfectly honest himsell and clean handed, he appealed to think every one else so; and with the clearest proofs of the corruption of several ot his Cabinet aud many who stood near to him, feeding at the public crib, he treated every proof with lofiy disdain and believed iu aud stuck to the inalefuc tots to the last. His flatterers the buzz fliis above alluded to menliou this as one ot the good and strong points ot his character. And so it is tor t':em ; but lliey lorgei mat wnat mav be ver'v cood as an act of per sonal friendship may be deadly evil M il affects the body politic. Cor ruption made greater strides in lui country in ihe eight years of Grant's Presidency than iu tbe forty preceea- ing years. Without any dishonesty of purpose ou his own part, be popu lanzed omcial debauchery by loierai in g il among those called to assist in tbe administration of the Government, bv bardoniuz convicted criminals who bad robbed the revenues, and by refusing to turn others out of office long alter their crimes were clear to everybody else, lie saw tne emi service coing to the bad at hurricaue speed, but never rajsad his hand to f If- . I 1 r.i.. IOD iu H must uaye Known ui corruptions in Congress, but he never once spoke of or hinted at tbetn oast or present. A sincle senteocs from him ia bis second regular mes sage, calling the atlenion of the two Houses to tbo situalioo between tbe Government and the subsidized and thieving railway corpralions, would nrelr bare led to such a nnmpt and thorough investigation as should have resulted in tlio passage, eight years ago of bills which wore passed ai me lasi session of Uongrcss, and in tho taving of more than 100,000, 000'. He never took ihe troublo to write that seutence. We give hiiu the benefit ot a belief tW his silence was dictated by a too sensitive regard for the rights and privileges of a separate dcnartmenl of the Govern ment ; but tlio publio at last fell into the suspicion ot a less honorable mo tive, and this impaired both his popu larity and his usefulness. Had Presi dent Jackson been : ruled hy a like limidity. the rotten National Bank might kave festered on for years. In fact; it became apparent toward tho closo of Grant's Inst term that the evils of his Admiuiitralion resulted mainly from his. incapacity as a civil ian, just us it happened with Welling . v it ii....!. ..v.:., v..:,i... iuuo luob a iouiivibuii. xioitiirr vi tbem knew whom to trust. They both always chose tho wrong men for tbe place, to the detriment of the publio interests. No man who had the least knowledgo of law and law yers would have thought of making a man ot the ordinary capacity of Oregon Williams Attorney-General, luere aro forty better lawyers in this city to-day. Robeson as Secretary ot the Navy, Belknap as Secretary of War, and the nomination of Stewart of New York as Secretary of tbo Treasu ry, wero simply preposterous. And when, by accident, he chanced upon the right man. as in the case ot Bris- tow, the weakness of his plyil training succumbed blindly to the aspersions of a set of scoundrels who hedged him about, and resulted in thp dismissal or the utter disgust and emasculation. His quarrel with bumricr scandalized the Kepublicao parly, mid more com pletely than ever turned its desti nies over to the keeping of the Cam crons aud those who were plainly lostroying it, and who, we fear, will havo given it tho coup de grace before the General shall hare returned from his European campaign. To talk of snob D man as "the only man who can save the Bepiibliu" is an insult to the American people, as il is an outrage to tho memory of such great Presidents as Washington-, Jefferson, Madison and Jackson to talk Of any man for a third term. nd yel in the existing and progress- I .? A I .11 mg demoralization oi ooui me uiu p irties.and the possibility of a nation al combination of Republican and Democratic eleineuls Bucn as look place in this State at the late election to defeat the Working men, it must be confessed 'that Grant's chances for third term have been improved since his retiroim nt from oflice. 1 be worst elements of both the old par tics tho wholo swarm of buzz flies, overy capitalist who has stolen him self rich, every land-grabber, every official thief iu dread ot investigation, every flunky of monarchy, imperial ism onu aristocracy, loosing iui- ward to a new classification of Amer ican society on the European oasis will naturally favor Grant for a third term, in the hope that through their chosen heads of departments they might be alio to oontrol the Jimperor as they did the President. "1 City In Two Slain. This is perhaps the only city in tho world that had two mayors and wo city governments, police, etc., and taxed in two slates. 1 he lino be tween Tennessee and Virginia is the center of Main street; as, for example, the runaway couple need no coach nd four but, arm in arm, stop across Main street and are wedded. The fugitive commits a crime in Virginia, goes to tne pavement on trie uint-r side of the stieet, and talks defiantly to tho officer on the opposite side, who has a warraot ler nis arrest, a mips tep or a too bold disposition will sometimes, however, bring him to urief. Several instances havo occur- red ot a lugilive being imBiieu aero tbe lino by a party prepared, while in the act of holding such a conver sation, and thcr tell of a man who definiialy perched hirosi'Jf on a pi.o of store Loses within six fciet of the line, jeering the officers on the oilier side, but, unfortunately for him, some law-abiding citizens Ultea tne uoxei and when he reached tho ground be was iu the otter state. Jsrutol, 1 tan- In Fulda, Germany, regular institu tions are established to tcacii uuu finches to sinff. The young bird are placed into classes of six to ten each, . . .. , . .i ... and ken in tne uarit. as viiev fed a litlle hand organ is played. Finally the birds commence to associ ate the music with tho feeding, and when hnngry, they comix enco to sing a few notes of the tune they hear daily. Thoso who do this are at once placed iu a more cheerful room, wben light is admitted. This encourages end msIiMiliem more lively. Then thev like to sing, snd are taught Wore. The most difficult part is the starting ol the birds, some of which have to ha kent a lonff time in the dark and n starvation rations, before their obstinacy is overcome. Abolisb the Army. It was tho opinion of our fore-fall), ors, says the Clarksburg Xeics, that a well regulated malilia was thq safest and besulolonse that could be devised for this country. Our experience has fully demonstrated this tact. Tho use of the army as nn important factor in elections, tho tendency of the people to elect military men to the Presiden cy and the disgraceful utterances of General IMiurman, its commandcr-iu uhiet, all goes to prove this fact. But recently General Sherman, when ad dressing tho graduates ol the West Point Military Acadeiny,"ileclarod his intention to use the army iu support of Hayes if any attempt was raado to removo him from tho Presidency. This was applauded by the young military upstarts who had just gradu ated at the expense ot the people and will hereafter live in style as ollieers in the army on money drawn from tho same source. It made no diller enco to Sherman an .1 his audience of army ofticorsaod West Point studouts if there was law and authority for re moving a man from an oflice to which ho had not been elected. Sherman's remarks there were so vociferously applauded was not qualified iu the least. It means that Hayes was to be sustained, it made no differcnoe whether it was legal or illegal, right or wrong to do so, We qro conviuced that the time has como when t he army should be abol ished aud it should bo done at oiu'O. It has been well said that "justico bo long to to-day." Now isjthe accepted time becauso it may be too lute to morrow. If the Republic is hi danger it must be sayed now, because we may hive no Republic to save to-morrow. When the army menaies the people and the Legislative branch ot tho gov ernment it is time to abolish it. We can get along without the army. Vol- unleers can be enlisted to tight I ho Indians that will bo twice ns elleolive as the regular army. The States should all nave a well rcgulatod miitia and that is all the military prepar ations this country needs. As lor We'st Point, its students should not bo quar tered upon tho country ns army of ficer. It is enough for tho Govern ment to educato them, when they get their military education let them re tire to tho walks ot private- lilo 'and work for a living as other pcoplo do, upon condition that they leinaiu sub ject to the call of tho Government when needed, ihis may now uo ro- garded as silly talk, but the day will como when tho people will rogrot tho existence of an army. Under Democratic Role and Now. During the administration ol Presi dent Buchanan., says an exchange, the annual appropriation for the In dian Bureau was less lhau one mil lion tlollais a year. It is' now over seven millions. Then there were more Indians supported by the gov ernment than there is now. Bui the army had practical charge of the tribes in thai period. Tho peaco pol icy of Gram's invention was not dreamed of, by which to rob the Treasury, swindle the Indiuiis, sup port au army of scoundrels as agents and subordinates on reservations, to enrich rascally contractors, and to cause annual Indian wars and tho massacres ol inoiiensive ironuers men and settlers. Just befoie the introduction of this wicked and cor- rupt system, even under tho Radical rule, marked as it was by extrava gance, fraud and plunder, tlio annual ex Dense of the Bureau was less than half of what it has been sinco. Yet, will) all these before them, the Radi cals in Congress persist in prevont- incr Democrats from transferring ihe care of the Indians to the War Do partmeiit, by which millions would be vearly saved to the government mid i eaceablo relations with all the tubus maintained. Kaslern Oregon is now paying, in blood of its citizen.', their property andall else in life, ihe fi jo-htful cost ot adhering to Grant's polioy, and the government is sacri ficing brave soldier and the heavy loss in treasure to the same evil pur pose. Louisiana Riccpekatino. The en- couraging nows comes iroiu Louisiana that (400,1100 more has been collect cd in taxes tho past year than in any previous year since tne war, mat tne interest on tbe state debt has been paid without borrowing a cent from the fiscal agent, and that at the i nd of the year a fair portio ot the $1,- OOO.OoO back taxes on beset aside for redemption ot the uonas. - ' . . .... Work on the Boston postoflice. ex tcpsioq is progressing slowly, but anrelr. Four masons squinted over a block of stone yesterday for three hours to decide if it was level, and then went to dinner. A couple of men who spent th, principal part of the afternoon in getting in and oulol their overalls, got asiaras spitting on their hands before it was lime "knock off." Tbey will lift a couple of planka early in tbi week. Dots Clyssfi Mean a Throne From the San Francisco Exainlnor. ' In a hittor written by General Grant, from Paris, May 20, "lately laid he fore the public in an Eastern p:ip r, he says : '"I shall return next spring to' prepare a permanent home"--in the United States, ol course. In hi light of the propholio words of tin lute .General Frank P. Blair, win knew Grant well, and warned ib people that he woul I fti the cud iiiu at constituting himsell n ruler l life over tho people, his allusion to . "porrnnneot home,"in conueoiinn wiu the known purpose of leading Ra I cals to atruiu place him in ihj exc tive chair, is significant. His Eur pean tour, his hobnobbing with mo -archs and dewiots.arid his own li position to arbitrary rule, may be con sidered, and should beguardedagHius , as the ways and means to the umhil' ous end. Cwsur thrico refused l hi. crown. Jlo depended on his arm v. He courted ihe populace. He gat tier ed about him senators and warriors whom ho favored and rewarded. But ho was nevertheless intent upon founding his imperial rule of Home. Grant is not a Ciesar in intellect, but he is more thau Ctesar was in tho craft which sways and binds popular leaders, lie knows and dares to use Lis power. The Shcrrnans snd HU'r dans will cleave to hint through ever bold push and strike tor him in ecr exigeucy. Uonkltng, Uhandler, llnv field, and others will sustain b in. The monopolists will rally to his stun i ard. Radicalism will battle for his suprcmocy, And will) tho head nf the army, and the horde of oflieo holders and seekers of plunder and spoil to fight luriously in his huhalr, tho peoplo will be overborne n n ! they arouse and eonbine for lomnion salely. Again, and huncetovlh, iuut tho Democraoy be impressed with the pregnant motto ot tho most illustri ous of their patriotic leaders " liter nal vigilance is tho price ot liberty I lest Grant's "permanent home" shall booomo tho palace of a despot retired upon the ruins of tho Repub lie ,. ' . - ' .'l I' ' ' I. II , ;.' - A Mural Punishment. Those who have read tho evidenco beforn the Potter Committee, j-oinarks tho N. Y. Day Hook, will be impress ed with tho uniform fact that all those pcuulo who DM.iliui I hnir A l.nlili'.H "f so-callod Republican creed, are utterly deficient in moral sense of any kind, and instead of the (ear of p.oseculion of perjurers, they talk off their lies ns glibly as if it was something credit able as showing their smarlness snd talent. It makes no difference what their position, Governors, Senators, Custom House ollieers or major gen erals, they all talk alike; all lie with the same audicily; all Benin to have lost the moral seuse that nature gavo them, and when in raro cases, like that of Secretary Sherman, they heiilate for a moment, is solely becatiMi of ihe immediate dmigof of doiection.. Now, this is no accident; it is a punishment that nature itself inflicts lor tho out rage, on lis laws. The negro has no moral sense, or only approximately. The most ruspeciable"oolored man" in this city will jump at the chance of door keeper in a gambling house, if it pays well, and while naturally relig ious, morality is no part of it. The whito people who no', only ucoeptlhu abstract "idea," but go the front tq reduce "equal rights'1 to praclico, bo come in this respect like the negro, utterly dead to any sonso ot right and wrong, and are only restrained by their tears, Indeed, the "while nig gcr," or white man, who equalizes with the negro becomes infinitely inoro dangerous to society than the abnormal or "tree" negro, for bis higher intelligence renders )iim so, and were il not that he also becomes as cowardly as the negro, nothing could rettraiu him. N Gkaxt and his Fhikxds. General Gram' special advocates never fail to ssscrt that the country needs a strong government. They clamor for a leader, remark, tho Ulica mraia. Independent Radical. They demand a sturdy tyill to dictate aotion and bo .. ' . 'i'l.. tlio master o evetua. a no awn iw which prompts the motement is tho same which led tho Jews to rcquiro a king. These parasites want a per sonal government. They hardly con ceal their wish lor Grant, not tor one term only, but at a permanent Exe cutive. They are weary ot institu tions which derxnd upon popular elec tions. They are greedy for spoil Irora which they can never be repel led, and in which their share shall neycr be limited. 'The undertone of the facliftq which leaps tho chasm of two years to summon our greatcsl captain to the Presidency once more is borrowed from Gen. Monk, and each of the manager in the secret ol the plan looks to secure for hinnelt permanent position under a govern toiment which shall be "strong, ana I shall control tbe administration for a ' generation to come.
