Uarth-mothrr dear. I turn, nt Is*1.
A homesick child, to thee.
I The twilight glow in lading fast.
And soon 1 shall bo free
To seek the dwelling, dim and vast.
Where thou uwaltest me.
I am so weary, mother dear!—
1 Thv child, of dual race
I Who gazing past the starheama .
I Sought the l'nd>Ing a face.
Now I hut ask to know ihea near.
To feel thy large embrace!
1 Tranquil to lie against thy btrest-
source of voiceless springs,
I Where heart, are healed, and wound* are
dressed.
And naught or sobs or Rings,
Ar.aiuM, thy breast to lie at rest
A life that folds its wings-
I Sometime 1 im.y-for who con telir
Awake, no longer Ibed,
And see the tlehls of asphodel.
The dreamed-of. the desired.
And Had the heights where
dwell,
To whom my heart oaplrod.
lh0 smoldering Are. He neither looked
up nor made any comment when the
gonoral spoke his determination. HU
own face grow more sullen, and he
reached his hand Into his breast and
nulled from his faded Jacket the tat-
tered colors that he once had borne
"Those will never be lowered as
long as l live,” he said, "nor after- .
wards If l can prevent It." Am' low-
ored they never were. On a little lsl
ind In the Pacific ocean this strange
soldier, after leaving his property and
his kindred forever, lived out his life
among the natives with this blood-
stained remnant of the Stars and
liars over his hut, and when he died
(ha flag was hung over his grave, and
ibovo that grave today the tattered
emblem still sways In southern air.—

Senator Quay visited Oov. Penny
packer a few days ago, traveling on his
annual pass over the Philadelphia and
| Reading road. In the courso of his
| Journey he waa transferred to the
l Perktomen Valley line, and the con-
ductor said he could not recognize the
pass on that branch. The senator tried
to make his pass good, but the com
ductor demanded cash fare. It hat if
I refuse to pay?" said Mr Quay. "The
walking Is good," unswerod the con-
ductor quietly. "I have iny orders and
am only protecting myself ' The sena
tor handed over his fare—the first he
has paid in some thirty-five years. On
returning to Philadelphia he visited
the Reading offices, but whether he
called to get another pass, to make
complaint against the conductor or to
get hla money returned has not been
learned.
CROKER OUT OF POLITICS.
Former Tammany Leader Makes Dec-
laration With Emphasis.
Richard Croker continues to rage
at the authors of the reports pub-
lished In this country that he has ex
pressed a personal preference for
this, that or the other aspiring Dem
ocrat as a candidate for the New York
mayoralty In the autumn. Here is an
extract from a letter received from
him by a well-known Tammany ad-
viser; "Next time any idiot tries to
mix me up In the campaign by saying
he had nn Interview with me In Eng
land and heard me mention names
please do me the favor to tell the first

formant Is a liar from Llarvllle and

ing to help him celebrate his one hun-

He Was a Good Jumper.
"Yes," said Peter Price of company
H One Hundred and Twenty-fourth
Ohio. "1 was n good Jumpor In the
army, but 1 never said 1 Jumped a
river, as the boys reported. I was nno
of Hazon's hellions, otherwise a mum-
1,er of Hazen's brigade of tbe Third
division of the Fourth corps. At New
Hope Church. Georgia. May 27 1M.
Sherman sent Hazen against what h
supposed was the left wing of John-
son's army In the air. Hazen struck,
however, Johnson's right wing at
point where the line bent to conform
to the hills along Pumpkin Vine croak.
The rebel line was not in the air at
all as we soon found out, hut was
compact and ready tor business.
"However, we marched to our left,
came In contact with Clalbornos
division, charged and drove the rt
els into their main works, wner
they were reenforced by Walkers
division. We could go no further, but
we held our position until the two
rebel divisions charged us. The ori-
gade In retiring left our regimen
In an exposed position on the extreme
left, and we were soon cut off. The
boys fought like furies, and. checking
the rebel advance, made a dash for
the roar, the enemy following close.
I was late in starting, and the rebel
skirmishers were abreast of mo when
I reached Pumpkin Vine Creek.
••As we came to the creek at a full
run It seemed to some of th« boy*
about sixty feet wide. To me It did
not appear more than six fee w .
and I made the Jump of my life, char
lng the stream. Those who didn t
Jump were captured, but 1 went across
with a good deal of company. Before
this. In going down the hill I brought
up against a log and fell, head first,
over It. A rebel right at my hoolii
struck at me with his musket and
ordered me to surrender. But 1 kept
up my rolling, tumbling performance
until I regained ray feet, Jumped the
crook, and, getting benind a trej.
gave my pursuer as good as he sent.
-I never think of that scramble and
Jump but 1 am reminded of Sheridan s
remarks about Rosser's rebel cavalry
In the Shenandoah valley in 18'>4.
When they came down the valley
after Sheridan. Rosser's men wore
wreaths of laurel and Ivy around their
hats After they found Sheridan and
went scurrying up the valley, tho
farmer, suggested that they wear
pumpkin vines around their hata. he-
cause they were good runners. A
Pumpkin Vine Creek I was a good
runner and a good Jumpor and so 1
live to tell the tale of that hot flkht.

Origin of "Fighting Joe."
Gon. Hooker's sobriquet of "Fight-
lag joe Hooker" Is said by Sidney V.
Istwell of Brooklyn to have originated
as follows: "l was reading proof on
tho Now Yotk Courier and Enquirer
and had been at work from 7 o clock
l„ the evening until 3 In the follow-
ing morning. McClellan had corao
into contact with the confederate
forces and was pressing them back
toward Richmond. Our press dis-
patches from the front, "rltt«n
carbon on manifold sheets of tissue
paper, told of desperate fighting all
along McClellan's line. Among hts
corps commanders was Gen. Hooker,
whoso command had been Perha,>®
too gravely engaged. Just as the last
page form of the Courier and En-
quirer was made ready for the press
another dispatch came In from the
front giving further particulars of the
fighting In which Hooker's corps was
ho desperately engaged and across the
lop of the dispatch was v»r'Ren
•Flght'ng-Joe Hooker.' I knew that
this line meant that the matter should
bo added to what had gone before,
but the compositor who put it In typ
know nothing about about the preced-
ing matter, consequently he set the
phrase as a head line. 'Fighting Joe
Hooker.* Concluding that it made a
good headline I let It go. I realized
that If a few other proofreaders treat
ed the phrase as I did Hooker would
live and die as 'Fighting Joe Hooker
Enough additional proofreaders acted
likewise to do the business.'

gled faithfully for what ho believed,

"Speaking of cavalry." said the col-
opel, "there was an incident of the
hgl t between Sheridan's and Jeb Stu-
art's cavalry at Hanover Courthouse
that made a great Impression on me.
The Union and Confederate lines
crashed tog?ther In * charge, each
breaking through the other. A Ln o
cavalryman sitting his horso like a
statue st uck at a Confederate as he
passed. The latter swung clear and
rising, made a back cut. severing the
Union soldier's head from the body.
So perfect was the cavalrymans
poise, however, that the body retained
its erect position for five or six yards
and then toppled over.
"A Confjderate officer, on my rerer-
lng to the Incident after the war, ex-
plained that ln 18C1 the Black Horse
cavalry secured a number of fine
Spanish sabers from the government
arsenal at Hirper's Ferry; that the
men ground these until they were I ke
razors, and that as a result a good
many heads went off. The young Vir-
ginians of the Black Horse cavalry
were good riders, having been trained

exercises. They believed, at one
time, they were superior to any other

experience that they were not. -Chi-

to intrust the work to some Amerb

The result was tho choice of Mr. Mao
