Congress.
The situation practically remains nn-
chauged. The oonolusion is becoming more
patent, that without a compromise, tbe ao-
tion of the senate upon the Sherman bill will
lie indefinitely postponed. While the ani
mus of the majority of tho senate favor free
silver, yet the known polioy of the President
retards their action. The decisive vote
poems yet far in the distanco.
Senator Colquitt stands oat boldly for free
coinage. He says that he is one membor in
the senate in favor of free coinage who is op
posed to yielding one inch to the uncondi
tional repeal men.
“I am in favor,”he said to-day, “of con
tinuing this fight indefinitely unless tho ad
ministration people agree to some compro.
mise in favor of silver.
“I oonfidootly believe that the destruction
cf silver by denying it freo ooiuage will be
more inj urious, oppressive and deslrootivo
to the masses of this country than the sur
render of Lee and the emancipation pro
claimed waH, to the material interests of the
aonth.
Senator Stewart of Nevada has taken much
of the time of tho senate in harsh criticisms
and severe animadversions upon ihe polioy
of the President. His violent denunciations
Lave rebounded and brought down upon
himself general displeasure.
Does tho Bible say anything about poli

would it Dot he well for all the peopls to

Died on the 19th day of August, beautiful
little May Bello, daughter of Mr. and Mrs.
Win. Eolmes, aged nearly ten years.
Never was n fairer blossom transplanted
from this world to unfold its loveliness in
the realms of the blest. Very fair to look
upon was this flower of tho household; too
lovely I ween, to be subject to the trials and
temptations of a sin cursed earth, so tho
kind Father called her np higher—called
her while sho was yet pure and unspotted
by the world, to shine a radiant, white angel
ubout His throno,
We aro prone to anticipate the joys ol
Heaven with human minds, and I picture
the ccetatio meeting between little May Belle
and the brother and sister gone before; then
too I imagino her beckoning with beautiful
white, angel hands to ihe loved ones left be
hind.
The lovod ooes at homo are not all that
will miss her. Her little sohoolmates and
her teacher too, ever and anon look, yoarn-
ingly toward her vacant scut, longing for a
sight of tho lovely form with the nut brown
eyes and goldeu hair.
Let us not think of her as lost but by eaoh
and all who lovod lior, to meet her in that
beautiful land where parting is known never
