'Invar duriii? the war. to a social equality
with the rebellion- white race, and i h lliti
cally to make the former the superior.
dominant race by its enfranchisement iu
such numbers that it could out vote the
white and thus possess itself of the local
"nvei nments. A verv brief trial, however,
showed that no congressional enactment,
though backed by the power of the bnyo-
net, could accomplish such a revolution.
TLe result wa- a period cf social disorder
and political anarrliv that fell little short
of continuous civil war, until it ended (as
it always must) iu the practical (if not en

of the superior race. The scenes of that

cruelty and ruftianism, as well of sublime
heroism, have never lieen adequately or.

have hitherto Interposed to color the events

writer of the volume before iw "The
Shadow of the War" essays a portrayal of
that jHTiod from a severely non-purtisnn

succeeds so far at least as to lejive the
reader in constant doubt which side he Is
inclined to favor. The pictures he presents

The story has been running through
"Harper's Young People"' and is so well
know n that commendation or criticism at
this time would be superiluous. Four
young people three boys and a girl -tart
to skate their way on a journey of over a
hundred miles across n froen lake, and be
ing unexpectedly arre-ted in their course
are compelled to live for some time on a
lonely island. The many thrilling inci
dents there encountered and their ultimate
miraculous escape give play for the best
powers of the author, who-e reputation for
telling delightful stories for the young is
so well established. It is a dainty, pretty
little book, full of attractive pictures, and
o beaut it'Hlly bound as to lit it admirably
for a holiday present.

while a friend who is a strong prohibition
1st ana took an active part in favor af that
party in the late campaign had dropped In
for it friendly chat, the conversation bap
ened to turn upou dreams, when he r. I d
ed one that Is not a little remarkable, e-pe
dally iu the light of the interpretation ol it
given to the writer by a person to whom he
told it a day or two after. I give the dream
in my prohibition friend's own words, win
made Docommeut upon it himself and of
fered no theory as to its interpretation or
significance, lie said:
I thought I had been placed iiimiuni.iud
of a verv tine steamer t plv on bike Krie
between" Cleveland and Huffulo, aud nattl
rally felt somewhat proud of my position
On'iny first trip, after we hint been out
some time and I was busy on .te k giving
orders, I was called to by the man at tin
wheel, who said: "Captain, do you see
that light yonder?" "Ye-.," 1 repli.il.
" Well," said he, "that is the upward
bound steamer and she is right in our
course making directly for us." I said, "are
yon sure you are on the right course?" He
said be was. " Then," said I, " go ahead,"
and went alsint my business.
Pretty soon lie called to me again and
said the steauier was still heading directly
for its. I again asked If he was -uie he
was on his right course, ami he said lie
was. "Then go ahead," 1 repeated, and
stood watching the vessel as she steamed
under full headway until she was within a
few yards, when she suddenly turned and
presented her broadside-directly in our
path. In au instaut our steamer sti tick her
about amidships and went crashing into
her. I heard the timliers crash and saw
the splinters tly in every direction, while
her pa-ssengers and crew shrieked w ith ter
ror as they were precipitate! Into the wa
ter, my own passengers at the same time
rushing on dec k in their night clothes and
for a few moment t,he wildest confusion
reigned. I immediately ordered a halt and
we soon had our boata out and piched up
all we could find from the wrecked vessel,
and when we compared notes it whs found
that no one had been drowned or seriously
hurt, and we went on our way rejoicing.
Now the friend to whom, as already stat
ed, I repeated this dream a day or two af
terwards, Joseph-like volunteered an Inter
pretation about a-s follows: The steamer
commanded by tlie prohibition captain rep
resents lhe Prohibition party in the late
campaign., tflto wa-s manned by able sea
men, her pilot understood ids business and
her brave anil fearless captain knew Ids
rights and would not be bullied out of them
by the fiercest and most daring of enemies.
When therefore the other steamer, which
represents the Hepubllcua party, with her
"plumed" captain, and crew composed
largely of Hev. gentlemen of the infant
"New York Temperance Assembly." dispu
ted her right of way tuid attempted t ruu
her down, she accomplisked her own des
truction. That is what her friends not ihi
ly iwimit but blame the Prohlbitionis's for.
Though she did not "run a hundred years
u day," she
" Went to pieces all at once,
All at once add nutting tirst,
Just like bubbles wheu Uiey hurst."
And her captain aud crew, w ho were so ge
nerously rescue! ; from a watery grave by
those whom she tried to destroy, have, it is
hoped, come out of their cold water bat h
wiser ami better men. Probably if hereaf
ter the wreck is raised and agaiu put afloat
sh will not attempt to dispute the right of
way with tlie Prohibitionists, though the
temper of her friends does not apjiear to
to have been at, all Improved by her mis
fortune. There is reason tohu, however,
that like the poor Tallapoosa, that last ship
of "our grand old navy" which went down
w ith such a line supply of (.liquid) stores on
board, she will prove a total wreck.

last Saturday by setting in place the mar
