Lcrt?s*r. A CONQUERER. On the shining h??ghls be had sought so long, He stood alose at the break of d.iy ; Tho wind about him blew ?erce and strong,1 And the wide, waste land beneath him lay; > . He could see the arch of the purple Bky, And the distant sea-line, thin and white ; And hear, as the swift gale hurried by. The low, weird voice of the fleeting night no could see the way that his feet had trod.V.. The wreck and min his hand had made, The clotted blood on the withered sod, . The cold, white faces amid the shade ; The land was his by the victor's right, He had swept the people before his wrath, % And conquered afrfcy his keen sword's might, And marked his course b}'. a lurid path. >il ; His word was law in the prostrate world, Where kings lay prone in their galling chains ; Ho laughed when-the bolts of Jove were hurled Along the silence of fruitless plains ; The boastful trumpets for him were loud, And servile minions bent to his feet ; But ho passed^alone through the cring ing crowd, And no redlips.ibr hiskiss grew sweet? And what did this give for the weary roars? Lo, nothing at all but a sounding name, And a harvest of woe and bitter tears, For tho loss of'love is tho gift of fame ? Ah, few are the' good things life can hold; Aud th9 one that shines all others above ls nei'her lame nor a wealth of gold, But the sweetness and joyof perfect love. Talraage,s Talk. Lessons on the Late National Election. There was an immense gatherit g at the Biooklyn Tabernacle last even ing when Rev. Mr. Talmage had his uiual Friday night talk. " Last Wednesday night a week," he said,-?,rl did not sleep well. There were too-many excited people around the newspaper bulletins. Many ol the editorials had in them too many kegs of dynamite.

Knocking Kvolution Out. Talmage Stands Up to lt for Foot Hound*.Marquis of Qneensberry ' ?- Rules. The Rev. T. De Witt Talmage, in the Baptist ministers' weekly meeting of Murray street, yesterday, answered the question : "IR there such a thing as evolution ?" ma lecture an hour long.

Talmage said, belong to Christian institutions. Morse, ra vector orche telegraph, was a Christian; Cyrus W. Field, who swunglac?hl? under the Atlantic, was a Christian ; James Y.

Round 2.-Mr. Talmage ret side by side the' Bible- account and the .scientific hypotheses of the origin of the human race, and derived so much amusement from the contrast that the walls almost shook with laughter and applause. How would it sound, he asked, if, instead of the genealogy of man in the Bible, we should read that a mushroom begat a tadpole, a tadpole beg'at'a pollywog, apollywog begat a fish, a fish begat a reptile, a reptile bega,t a quadruped, a quad ruped begat ,a-baboon, and a baboon begat a mah'?''Herbert Spencer, how ever, was not present at the creation, and as the Lor\3 waTpresent.ihe Rev.

Republican Responsibility for ai Panic Among Colored Men. The New York Herald, of yest? day, says :"It is manifest by d patches from the South that the eh rion of Governor Cleveland has c easioned a fear among colored peor, there of pometh?ng indefinitely ten ble to happen to them in consequent though we do not{believe!that this fe is so general or so genuine as eome the reports imply. The Soothe: journals agree that it prevails to large extent among the most ignora part of the colored ratal potnlatio but say that it is scarcely perceptib in the cities, where the ? etter ed ca ted colored men discourage it. J most men in the North the groan lefipueea of the alarm gives it an a peet of absurdity. But in the Sont wc are glad to see, it is recognized it should be, as a very serious matte and the leading white citizens in mai places are faking energetic steps dispel it. lt the Republican politicians of tl North have not lost the sense of p triotism in their unscrupulous can va for Mr. Blaine, they should mal baste to volunteer help in this usef work. Mr. Ratherford B. Hayes, fi example, could employ himself at tl present moment with great benefit nia COUD try and advantage to bis on reputation if he should go South ar repeat the soothing speeches he mac there in 1877. Mr. Evarta, who b this time should be convinced that I is out of place among the A ld er me: could allege the propriety of keepic company with Mr. Hayes for an e; cuse to cot loose from playing junie counsel to Mr. George Bliss. M Federick Douglass has accumulate enough money in lucrative feden i.fficeB during the last dozen yeats t afford to take a vacation tor tr same good purpose of pong Soutl We might prolong the list ; but the; illustrations are enough. A doze or two of the Republican orators wb devoted months in spouting for B.aic in hope of spoils, could quickly dil sipate whatever panic existB arnon the colored people, whom they a much profess to leve, if they onl would disinterestedly devote as man dtys to telling them the truth-tha tue election of Governor Clevelan threatens them with no peril. Every Northern Republican know th.-ii all the, civil and political ri Jut of colored people over which th Federal executive has any duty iin power of guardianship will be guard e by Mr. Cleveland as ei_:re lly a they poasibly could be by Mr. Blaini Every Northern Republican know also that any alarm among the colore people of the South arises from fale impressions cn that subject diseemi nated by the Republican office hold era at the Sooth, io whose hands ez elusively the Republican Nationa Committee left Mr. Blaine's canvas there. It tbs Republicans relianc in the South had not been upon th ignorance .of colored voters; if th Republican National Committee hai made a genuine canvass throughou the Southern States instead of mere ? ly plotting to capture two or thre of them by corruption-in that even a similar canvass would have beet forced upon the Southern Dem?crata and colored people, whether in thi city or in the country, would havi been so well instructed with regare to the real condition of politics tba' the present apprehensions arnon; them must- have become impossible A Mystery of the Sea. New York Truth, The Hon. Francia George Hay, whe died last week of typhoid fever, wac a man of somewhat varied experience of life. He served before the mast for three years in the navy, Rnd st the time of his death waa in the service of the British India steam navigation company. One,, at leant, of bid adventures is worth recording One of the company's steamers was a few miles off Aden. Mr. Hay was in command of the watch about 4 a. m., when he fancied he noticed a boat drift by and that he beard a faint scream. He at once stopped the vessel, lowered a boat and pro ceeded to search for the castaway. He was rewarded by discovering the dead body of a lady and a living child tied together in a boat, which was half full of water. The child he adopted, and she ia now in the charge of bis family. Oddly enough, be was never able to discover her birth or parentage, or even the name of the vessel on which she had been a pas senger. This sounds like a chapter from a sensational romance, bat it 18 trae, notwithstanding. New York millionaire-"Are the girls locked up for the night, wife ?" 41 YeB.', " Coachman chained ?" " Yes."

Foreign Drummers. Foreign drummers have recently made their appearance ia this coun try, and.dt is said, are rapidly in creasing in number. They come chiefly from England and France. High aB our tariff" on foreign goods is. it does not exclude. them entirelv. We import^large amounts of -silk, linen, woolen lind.. worsted goods, cloths and hosiery, and it is these ar ticles the foreign drummers come to solicit orders for. Many English aud French manufacturers make a speci alty of supplying th? America? mar kets with certain kinds of fabrics. Heretofore they have Bold to New York, and the merchants of that city have et joyed the monopoly of supplying the rest of the country ; but the appearance of foreign drum mers in western cities menns that the foreign manufacturers are hereafter to avoid the agency of New York and deal directly with their ?mencai customers. The latter have the ad vantage of about 10 per cent, reduc tion in prices. Tne New York im porters will not. relish the new method of doing business, but will be power less to airest it.-*?? Louis Repub lican. Mary Was Hight. . " Mr Jinks," said the small boy, running into the parlor where his sister Mary and th-U gentleman were seated, "what would you do if you were out in the street and i came on to rain ?" "I don't know," answered Jinke. M Then I guess Mary was right, tor she said this morning that she didn't believe you knew enough to go in the house when'it rained."
