An as pebbles la tbo sea. .
. Toiling bands alone are builders
Of a nation's wealth and fame,
Titled lasiness is pensioned.
Fed and fatted on tbe same ;
By the sweat af other's foreheads, - .
Living only to rejoioe,
While tbe poor man's outraged freedom
Vainly lifts its feeble voice.
Truth and jnstloo are eternal.
Born with lovolineas and light ,
Secret wrongs shall nevor proor
While there is a sunny right ;
God, whose world-wide voice is singing,
Boundless love to you and me,
Links oppression with its tit les,
But as pebbles in the sea.

PRINCIPLES
CLEARFIELD; PA., WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 2,
; That Yoang Nigger Again.
That Intolerable, young nigger,
Smith, who bas kopt tbroe or lour
court martiais runtime since bis star
at West Point in the investigation of
his niayiui Alrtcaii ireaks and, eccetr-
tricitios, is again conspicuously before
tbe publio. It seems,' wo. huve
boforo statod in thoso columns, that
Smith bas an ' unpleasant habit of
battoring tho heads of his follow ca
dots of the Caucasian raee with tlri
dippers, pokers, broomsticks,' and
ether available implomonls of assault
which torn np handy vvhon tbo wrath
of this martial child of Guinea chances
to be rousod. Should theso indignities
bo repaid In kind, -as sometimes
happens, Smith 'ha,' of eoorse, tre
mendous ad van tago over his Opponent
inasmuch as tinnors have never fabri
cated a cup nor blacksmith forged
poker bard or Heavy enough to im
press his ponderous skull. It is bullet
proof. It is a phronological Gibralter.
iou might as won attempt to nddlo
the -turret of a . monitor with a pea
shooter as to ooncuss the Smith brain
by pounding on the Smith skull. ,
J.bo young darkoy ts immensely
vain of this superiority over tho white
trash at the Point whoso heads he
regards as mere egg shells which ho
thinks it fine sport to crack. His
skull and powor at butting aro also
remarkable iicioro lie wont into
training as a warrior he usod to win
grind stone cheeses on tho wharf at
JNow Orleans by executing a flvinir
leap through thoir middle. The boy
that can butt his ' way through a
grind stone choose is not a pleasant
advorsary. His head and onorgies
directed against tho pit of a brother
cauois stomach are apt to induce
asthmatio symptoms in tbe victim.
Indeed young Fred Grant only savod
himself from ono of those fearful
attacks somotimo ago by deftly stop-
fing behind Old Dennis Mohan (tho
'rofessor of Mathematics) just in limo
to substitute tho rrol s audomon lor
bib own. When Old Donnis recovered
his breath (which he did on tho fourth
day after) ho was pur.r.lcd to know
what to do. Ho couldn't punish Fred
because he was the eon of the Prcsi.
dent nor Smith bocnuse bo was tho
son of a nigger. And so Old Donny
pocketed the affront as best ho could.
II o still eats badly and complains of
frequent colio. The cadets, who aro
heartless dogs, dcclaro that it comes
of taking loo much "butter" into his
stomach. '
But, added to Smith's physical ex
ploits and peculiarities aro somo moral
oddities not altogether becoming a
gontloman of chivalry, although qnito
in place and altogether to be expected
in a gentleman of Africa. Tho young
nlggur lluo uulrnguuurd.y uud i,pvt
ally. If he chancos, now nnd then, to
tell the truth by aooidont, ho is seizod
with romorse, grows gloomy and sulky
and is not himself again until ho has
brought forth a fiosh batch of lies
moot for rcpontanco. It, is believed
that ho stoals chickens at night not so
much from n protornutural love of
fioultry as for tho ploasuro of swearing
limeelf wbito in too fnco that ho didn't
steal them. It is needless to say that
Master smith s Word is regarded as
quite as good, as bis bond, tho latter
security being utterly unmarketable.
hmitli s lust Court Martial convict
ed him of willful nnd malicious lying
and recommended his immodiat'o dis
missal from tho Academy. But Soo
retary Belknap, in a published ordor,
doclinos to approve this scn'.cnco on
tho ground that "'his (Smith's) pres.
enco at tho Point is an illustration of
tho policy of tho government.' Charm-
ngly frank, indeed, is this confession
and good it must havo boon for the
soul of Bel kn up (which needs repair)
to mako it. 1 ho youthful Smith has
official notico thut, horcaftor, ho can
Ho to bis preceptors and butt nnd
"dipper" his classmates to his hosrt's
content, without Icar. or molestation;
He won t, you sco, bo lylnir or buttinir
or dippering after all, but simply serv
ing ins country by "illustrating the
policy"of Grant's administration. . He
can go carocring about tho plain, like
a billy goat, upsetting professors, and
may kuopUld JJenms Alubnn in a slate
of chronio broalhlegancss, if ho cboscs,
by . playlully . attempting to lean
through him as if bo were a grind
stone chocso, and tho faculty will have
to smilo bcningly on the nigger's an
tics and Dennis bctr Ins purdon for
groaning loo loud, bocauso, forsooth,
tho gamcrouio boy is "illusttatinir
Grant's policy. . His larcenous appro
priations of eggs and fowls by night
must -not no longer bo culled limits
but "illustrations" (cheap onos we
admit) of tho policy which prevails at
w aniiuigion in mo uisposibion oi uie
public funds. Should tho lad of Guinea
bring on all his relations to the Poinl
and his mother's relations (the Dent
branch) and insist on llioir , being
quartered in tho housos of tho profus
sors and fed and clothed at tho public
expenso wo Bhould have another capi
tal "illustration' or tirnnts policy.
Irt short thore Is ho tolling whi:ro,
under 'tho largo charter given him by
Belknap,' this vcrsnlilo young artist
will end in making his "illustrations."
Hut lor urntit s support and Belle-
nap's odious and open endorsement of
his violations of honor and of Iho
ponce bnt for tho determination of
the lvopublieaa party to force negroes
into an unnatural social equality with
the wbito race but for the servility
of West Point i professors and. tbe
oharily of cadets who scorn toquarrol
with a creaturo whom tboy will not
rocognixo aa an associate but but
but tbo fact is that thore are so
ninny "butts" in tho case of Malor
Smith that any furthor spoculutions
ooncorning bis future fate would be
unprofitable, Easton Argus, Ml j ,
. aTealtu and Moxer. Tbore Is tho
difference bolwcon those two tomporsl
blessings, hoallh andtnonov: money
.is. llio most envied, but tho least on-
ioyod i health Is tbo. most enjoyed.
Din, mo least envied i and tins supe
riority of tbo latter Is stilt more obvi
ous whon we reflect that the poorest
mon trould not part with health for
money, bat that tbo richest wonld

tho foolish things ho was guilty of in

"Give mo back my youth aguin !"
did you say ? Friend, it's a mistake.
Ton to ono you wouldn't have it again
if you could. If old Timo' wero to

"Take bhek, O wise middlo nirod Noo.

your lost youth, that, you answer,
"Pass on, Father Time I And you
may as well tip thoso twonly coldon

It gives an odd feeling, especially if
you are a woman, to nnd yourself get

First, you will notico that you begin
to bo left out of very young folks' pic

begin lo bo faintly haunted by vaguo,
sneaking doubts as to whether white
muslin and blue ribbons aro becoming
to i-ou. . Finally, and worst of all.
once in a whilo you will sco an infant
of the malo sox, whom you romombcr
as a rosy little follow in checked aprons
when yon wero twelve yenrs old, sud
denly lifted over your head in the
shapo of a long, gawky biped, with
tho tender down of a first moustache
sprouting from his upper lip. That
gives you an intonsly exasporating

old gilt edged book of poetry, and
discover, carefully pressed away bo-
tween tbo leaves, a lilllo lock ol faded

Well, that's a sign, too. Especially if

has been expended in the endeavor to

tho times of tho Romans: tho third
finger is called annularis, tho low Hor.

tho ring was placed on tho end of tho
