▲mono the most natural instincts of
human nature from time immemorial,
love of country, or patriotism has, as
a historical fact, taken high rank
among the mo&t forceful potencies of
citizenship; and, if there Is ono thing
more than another which hus demon-
strated itself to bo a ooheslvo political
and civil foroe—that unseen but
mighty thing, that powerful sentiment
which has conserved and perpetuated
actional life, it is patriotism.
|P An Americ an in Japan writes that
when an earthquake occurs in that
country people do not run out of their
houses and raise a hubbub, but just sit
still and wait for i! to stop. The se-
cret is that the houses are built for fre-
quent earthquakes. If the earth Ite-
gan to tremble ' hen a Jap was in tha
top story of a tall stone front ho would
probably do as the Americans do with
great promptness.
We can spend millions in lagging *
long way behind England and Franc#
In the line of building inoustor iron-
clads which may turn out to bo worth-
less when they are finished. But ths
investigation and perfection of now
agencies in warfare such as new ex-
plosives, or us thotwelve-inch mortars
that wore tested recently, is a field of
work that is likely to produce results,
like the buildlug ol Kricsson's Monitor
or the use of Farrott guns, during our
war.
THE LONG WHITE SEAM.
As I cam© round the harbor buoy
The light* began to gleam;
No wave the land-locked water stirred
The craga wore white a* cream;
And I marked my love by candle light
Hewing her long white scam.
It b aye sewing ashore, my dear,
Watch and steer at tiea;
It's reef and furl and haul the linst
Bet sail and think of thee.
1 climbed to reach her cottage door;
O sweetly ray love sings I
Like a shaft of light her voice breaks
forth,
My soul to meet it springs,
As the shining water leaped of old,
When stirred by angel wings.
Aye longing to list anew,
Awake wnd in my dream,
But never a song she snug like this,
Hewing her long white seam.
Fair fall the lights, the harbor lights
That brought me in to thee,
And peace drops down on that low roof
For the sight that 1 did see,
And the voice, my dear,that rang so clear
All for the love of me.
For O, for O, with bro vs bent low,
By the candle's flickering gleam
Her wedding gown it was she wrought,
Hewing the long white seam.

The criino for which the Kendall family
were in Jail, under ind.vtuient lor murder,
was one of peculiar atrocity. Tho last
Thursday iu August eld man Keu-

irmed with Winchesters, came into
Georgetown and began shooting
t John und Burrill Jarvis. The
former was killed outright and tho latter
wan badly wnuuiled, while u bullet fia>m

sounty. For an hour tho Kendalls defied

The noxt night a negro who had been
Maccd in jail for killing a white man was

Georgetown underwent a reign of terror.
The negroes attempted to burn the town be-
;ause luo mob did not lynch tho Kendalls

GmnAUAU, Nov. U.—The dispute be-
tweeu tho French government and the sul-
tan of Morocco regarding tho ownership of
the oasis of Touat does not seem to be ap-
prouching a solution, and if LYunce re-
mains steadfast in her determination to
take possession of Touat thero is no
doubt that eerious trouble will fol-
low. The inhabitants of tho oasis aro
already in a stuto of anarchy growing out
of tho dispute between the two powers.
A majority of the inhabitants do not look
with favor upon the claims of France.
They desire to throw aside all foreign gov-
ernment and form an independent gov-
ernment of their owu.
The sultau of Morocco recently sent a
number of emissaries to Touat to gain sup-
port to his pretentions to sovereignty, but
tho reception they met with will be upt to
detor others from attempting to influence
the natives of Touat. The natives not
having tho fear of the sultan before their
eyes confined tho emissaries and subse-
quently decapitated llvo of them.
