I stepped Into the t'in uit Court To aeek whate'er I uiight report, Aud there, withiu the bar, I saw The great respect that's paid the law ; The honored Judge, w ith whitened hair, The ladles, In the circle there, Aud ivery Juror In his place, With wrapt attention on hU face, Aud strictest rule, a should support The dignity of such a court; But there, within that court's demean, The center of that solemn scene, The lawyers sat, with long let; crossed, Their chairs all slightly backward tossed, Aud their feet upon the table. WIIEKK, Oil, WUERK? Oh, where are the passes that, sweeter than roses, We have been nding with h11 the while? Dead as bulrushes 'round little Moses On the old bauks of the Nile. OBI XL AH Y. Died, April lihj 1S3T, of spinal menpiyus. Mr. Editorial l'as., ago unknown. Mr. Pass was one of the oldest resident of thi coun try, lie is supposed to have come over in the ark, and is first mentioned in history when the Israelites were passed through the Red Sea. Mr. K. l'ass has lived a long life of usi fulness-, and dies regretted and mourn ed by all who ever had the good fortune to become acquainted with him. The uewspa per fraternily all mourn his demise. It was one of those cases of sudden and unexpected death, which are always so sal. The story is short, but terrible. Mr. Pass had hereto fore been peaceable, anJ when he was insult' ed he always let it pass ; but the 4t!i ot this month he cot into a disDiite with Interstate O A Commerce lill, a well known desperate character, and Bill killed him. Mr. K. Pass has long been respected in Ottawa, and his death is extremely sad to us. He leaves i but one descendant, Mr. Pioneer Fireproof Construction Company Mud Line Puss, who makes his home in Ottawa. This last men. tioned Pass was lnrn only a short time ago, and entitles its friends to walk over the Mud Line until they are tire-1. It allows the holder to pay his own fare from any out side point to the beautiful aud enterprising city of Ottawa, and to walk over all the rail roads of the Fireproof Company at his leis ure until he is tired. This is the last, lone and forlorn descendant of our ouce glorious Editorial Pass. It is like the '-Last Man" of Hood I guess it was Hood, or somebody else, like the last huuinii being that (lie poet fancies left sn the earth alone. We look at this lonely, sickly descendant of the once magnificent race of Editorial Pass, a;d we see by the couJiiions on the back that we are "entitled to walk either rail, or dodgp between the ties." We look at this last, lonely, sickly, horrible mockery of a l'ass, and we sigh : " 'Tis the lust Puss forever, Left blooming alone; All his kindly ancestors Are culled in and gone; Our Passes have left us Like leaves in a gale, Till our last Pass allows us To tramp o'er the rail." TAI.MAOE. Talmage spoke at the Tabernaele last Sun day, on "Secret Societies," and the import of his sermon was that "By their fruits ye shall know them." Now, that relieves me. That makes it clear. 1 consider Talmage authority on most things. 1 wanted to know whether he was in favor of secret societies or not, and now I know all about it- I e I SHKKWOOI). f I" Fn. I. Proposition : Money makes th' Mayor go Demonstration: We have in the figure the frame a, b, e, d, and the lines e, . These lines represent cross sections of the fence that the Ottawa weeklies straddle! ; i l rep resents the position taken by the Timet of its own accord, while b d represents the Journal and the $-'00 it received for last Sunday's issue with the cuts. Now, if we Conceive the Journal (b J to be revolved upon the fence (e ) until it assumes an upright po9i tion, (if such a thing can he conceived,) we shall find that the line ef, being of the same length as the line a, the point b will, upon further revolution, fall upon the point a, and in like manner the point will be found to coincide with the point e, and the Journal (.'

We are frejueutly brought to realiie what a necessary and useful thing a recommenda tion Is. No business man of any sense wil1 employ any person who does not come well recommended. A startling illustration of this fact occurred recently in Ottawa. One of our leading papers secured the services of a new reporter. He came with excellent credentials. He had three letters from well known clergymen, five puffs from eminent uewspaper men, two personal certificates of character, and a Sunday school tract- He went to work Saturday afternoon, Sunday he got drunk, Monday he stole his employ, er's pipe, Tuesday he was bit by a tore-eyed dog, Wednesday he was sent to report a po litical meeting in Iowa, and went off on a big drunk, and never came back or sent any word. He has never been heard from since. I don't see how people dare to engage help who come without proper credentials. iir.nn most. Poor, abused, betrampled Herr Most ! How hard he has worked for the welfare of his race and the liberation of the slaves from the uujust rule of tyrannical capital ists! How he has bceu crushed beneath the iron heel of American despotism, and de nied tlio liberty the Hod given liberty of free speech ! How, when he has lifted up his voice for the annihilation of the Chicago blue-coated despots, he has been black guarded by the black hearted newspapers and cast intoptison by tue despotic oilicers of the law ! Let us all have the greatest sympatuy for Herr Most in his cuflerings. Let us clothe him with the sanctity and the halo and the dignity of a great martyr ; but if, in our search for the aforesaid garment wherewith to clothe him, we should, after collecting all his available material of that sort, find hitn far toa scantily clothed, let us fill up the lack with a little practical tar and feathers. Let us look upon Jerr Most as the greatest of American martyrs. Let ns relieve his sufferings as far as lieth iu our power. Let us soothe his wounded sensibili ties and feed hiiu upon the milk and honey of the land ; but if, in our search for the milk ami the honey, we should get hold of a dish of llouj.li on Hats instead, perhaps it would soothe his wounded sensibilities in fully as satisfactory a manner. The Hock Island and liurlington roads have reduced freights between Ottawa and ChicRgo. The new rates 3oc per 100 lbs. for 1st class, 2"jc for 2d, 20c. for 3d, 15c. for 4th, and 10c. for 5th.

I'ipillon (Clark's extract of Max) Skin Cure, like m:iny other inestimable benefits to man kind, was discovered by accident, lue pro prietor, engaged in the preparation of cer tain plant, from time to time, noticed the effect of working in the pulp vats on the skin. If there was present any cutaneous eruptions, warts, blemishes or scrofulous syniptotis, all disappeared as if by magic. After experimenting ten years, It has become scientific fact and a priceless boon to the hum 'Ui race.
