I'LL TRY AND I CA'T.
" Maggie, I wish you would ran down to
the cellar, and get a few sticks of wood,"
said Mrs. Grey to her little girl.
In an instantMaggle's face was covered
with wrinkles, and twisting herself, she re
plied:
"Oh, mother, I can't ; I am so afraid of
rats and roaches."
"Well, never mind, Willie will go for the
wood," said the mother ; and the little boy
dressed ran cheerfully for the required
dole, whilb his sister went on with her
Maggie have you studied your geography
for school to-morrow 9" was the next ques
tion that Mrs. Grey asked of the child.
"Oh, mother, I can't it is so hard,"said
aggie.
"'I can't again, Maggie; suppose I should
that word on all occasions, what do you
hink would be the result 1"
" I Flo not know, I am sure ; but I can't
elp it."
"Your brother William never says ' I
an't' if I require him to perform a diff
a task. He says, 'Mother, I will try."'
"I have tried to say it too, but it is of no
; I can't," replied Maggie, and her
other turned away, without saying any
ore.
It mattered not what Maggie was told to
do, her reply would be, " I can't." She
had become so accustomed to the phrase
that she scarcely ever uttered a sentence
that did not contain it."
Her parents and teachers had tried every
variety of argument to break her of the
ugly habit, but it was in vain. "I can't "
was the burden of her hourly cry ; nothing
else was ever heard from morn till night,
and Maggie was becoming disagreeable to
herself and every one else.
"Willie, won't youea bring home some
apples from Mr. Brown's orchard t You
are going over thdre to play with the boys,"
said Maggie, one Saturday afternoon.
"Oh, I can't be bothered with apples,
Maggie," said Willie, with a roguish twin
kle in his eye.
Maggie saw this, and waited anxiously
for his return, fully expecting that he would
bring the desired fruit, but he returned
without them.
The school was two miles from their
dwelling, and Mr, Grey would never allow
Maggie to go unless she was accompanied
by Willie.
One bright morning, Maggie was pre
paring for school, and could find noth
ing to put on, and no one could come to
assist her. Her mother passed through the
room, and she exclaimed :
"Oh, mother, do come and help me to
find my cape."
" I can't Maggie; you will have to hunt
it yourself," replied her mother.
"But,mother, I have, and I can't find it."
"Then wear something else, I can't look
for it, nd Mrs. Grey left the room.
This as something very strange, for
that kind other was alwaysready to assist
her little 'girl, and took pleasure in
dressing her the morning. Maggie
could not understand it, and went down
stairs in search of her, just as Willie was
tarting for school.
"Oh; Willie don't go; wait for me."
he cried.
"I can't wait, Maggie ; why ain't you
ready 1"
" I can't find any of my things; mother,
you might come and help me," aid Maggie
began to cry.
Fora moment Mrs. Grey stood irresolute,
and then replied :
" I am busy reading, Maggie, and I can't
stop."
Willie went to school, and Maggie cried
all morning on account of her disappcint
ment.
In the evening Willie went to see his
uncle, and Maggie was reading a little
book that. he had brought from the lib
rary, when the baby cried, and Mrs. Grey
said :
"Maggie, run, and bring the baby here."
" I can't, I want to finish this book."
Mrs. Grey quieted the baby, and after
putting him to sleep, she started out for a
walk. Maggie wished to accompany her,
but she replied :
" I can't take you, I can't be bothered
with children."
For a week everything that Maggie ask
ed her mother to do, she answered, " I
can't," until at length one evening, the lit
tle girl came to her side, and with tears in
her bright eyes, said :
" Mother, if you will be like what yen
always were, I will never say 'I can't' any
more."
" The mother turned, and clasping her
in her arms, talked long and earnestly to
her of the folly and wickedness of her
course; and ever afterwards, if the words
"I can' " were spoken by her, the remem
brance of that week of ,trial hushed the
word but half uttered; and in learning to
go cheerfully, and say to everything "I can
try," Maggie beca-ae a comfort and a plea
sure to all around her.
Little children, if there are any of you
who, like Maggie, have formed the habit of
saying "I can't," like her, break yourselves
of it now, for it will never prosper. The
little boy or girl who would learn great or
good things, must not turn away at the
rst difficulty, and say that they cannot
do it; nothingcan be performed without
labor and many times trying. Remember
the story of Robert Bruce, the great Scot
tisb King. who was taught the leeson of
patience and perseverance by the simple
means of a spider engaged in weaving its
web.
A TRUE LADY.
I was onces walking behind a very hand
somely dressed young girl, and thinking,
as I looked at her beautiful clothes, "I
wonder if she takes half as much pains
with her heart as bshe does with her body 9"
A poor old man was coming up the walk
with a loaded wheelbarrow, andjust before
hbe reached us, he made two attempts to get
into the yard of a small house; but the
gLate was heavy, and would spring back
before he could get through.
"Wait," said the young girl, as she
spranglightly forward," I'll hold the gate
open." And she held the gate until he
passed in; and received hise thanks with a
pleasant smile as abshe went on.
"She deserves to have beautiful clothes,"
I thought, " for a beautiful spirit dwells in
her breast."

SUNSET COIS SPEECH IW THE HOUSE.
During the debate in the House of Rep
resentatives on sustaining or rejecting the
decision of the Electoral Codmiuloo to
count Louisiana's eight votes for Hayes, Mr.
Cox, of New York, said :
After many years of active service as a
member of this House, recalling all the
vicissitudes of twenty years, I cannot feel
responsible to-day that after the verdict of
the American people it should prove a
fruitless verdict. In 1864, on the 16th of
May, I presented a resolution to this
House which passed. It related to the reg
ularity and authenticity of the returns of
electoral votes, and to the passage of a
law to provide for the jurisdiction as well
as the course of proceeding in case of a real
controversy. The Judiciary Committee
took no action at that time. Nor, sir, do I
feel responsible for the steps which were
wisely, perhaps, or unwisely, but certainly
with a view to prudence-taken in framing
the Elective Ball. That bill is toe law.
We know what it is, what its provisions
are; we know what my friend from Ken
tucy (Mr. Wattersn) has said-that there
was some snare in it. (Laughter.) Laugh
and exlt as you will, I knew and felt that
some virtue had gone out of this House
when we had passed that bill, but I did
not exactly see where the virtue had
alighted. (Laughter.) I knew. that the
old privileges of the commons had depart
ed, but in the interest of peace I gave a
reluctant vote for the bill. But one
strange thing about the bill is this-that
while we are permitted to vote in this
House, yet, after all, it is a sort of post
mortem vote. (Langhter.) Although we
are permitted to argue, it is an argumentum
ad post factum. Although, sir, there is
some utility in the dissection of the dead,
and although there may be something
gained by the dissection of the living
(laughter)-yet it seems to me to be proper
now to look at one particular clause of the
law before I state my reasons for protest
ing against ihis measure. We are graci
ously permitted under this bill to argue
after the matter is accomplished, and al
though we vote, and although we carry our
vote an the house, we are gone. (Laughter.)
We gain nothing; we are permitted to talk
ten minuats after thecounting and the con
clusion. It :s the old Virgilian line over
again of "Rhadamanthus-(J age of Hell)
Castigatque auditque doles," thu old rule of
hanging a man and trying him afterwards.
(Laughter.) This is our condition to-day;
and what ie it we try? Why, sir, every
thing as to testimony and facts and forgery
and perjury and force is aliunde, outside,
not to bQ considered. Truth and justice
and morality and lair dealing are aliunde.
The HouseAs aliunds. (Laughter.) Its
acts, and the acts of its committees, and
their reports, all the facts gathered-in these
Southern States are aliunde. (Laughter.)
Nothing is to be considered but the bare
naked fact of a certificate based upO
what? On forgery and chicanery, on a
Returning Board which returned the fact
that 10,400 Democratic votes were not
counted. The business of the Supervisors
of Registration of Louisiana was to trans
mit the votes, but one of them failed to
transmit 2,900 Democratic votes, and only
four .hours were left between the time of
the organization of the board and the deci
sion. Where and how could the State cor
rect such returns in that time? It is a
mockery. Why, Mr. Speaker, some mem
ber over there said be was sick of fraud.
Earth is sick and heaved is weary of the
hollow words which statesmen and judges
use when they talk of right and. justice
when such things can be accomplished. I
tell you, Mr. Speaker, by human law, there
is no statute of limitations to protect fraud'
In divine law it is written, "There is no
rest for the wicked." (Laughter.) Every
avenue of society, every relation or trust
which fraud permeates shall at last be in
vestigated and made null. Crime cannot
breed crime forever. _Strength shall not
always aid the strong. The time will come,
if not now in some near future, when the
gentlemen on the other side who now
laugh and taunt because of this trap in
which the Democrats are caught, will re
pent of this great crime of history of which
they are particeps criminis. Ah! they
called in the ermine to help them. The
ermine is a little animal; it is an emblem
of purity; it would rather be caught than
be bedraggled in the mud. Hunters put
mud around their hands to catch thtem.
But where is the ermine newt Ah! the
fox has beceme the ermine. But no con
ning, no craft, no human laws, no divine
law can ever condone fraud. All codes
and the histories of all nations cry out
against it. Crime cannot breed crime for
ever. Ask the people of this country if
fraud is not to them an endless offense. I
was about, Mr. Speaker, before the hammer
fell, to refer to the Hily Writ, so that the
gentlemen on the other side may have time
for repentence. (Laughter and applause.)
With the permission of the House, I will
read Psalms 94, verse 20:
"Shall the throne of iniquity have fel
lowship with Thee ?"
Mr. Kelly (Pa)-I object. (Laughter.)
Mr. Southard (0.)-I hope the gentle
men on that side will listed to those words,
that they may have time to repent.
Several members objected.
Mr. Cox.-The Bible is aliunde with these
gentlemen. (Great applause )
SPAIN S FINA4NCIAL DILEMMA.
If the pluclky Cubans are making their
island too hot for Spaniards, Spain is re
talisting on the money centres of Europe.
She is making England, Holland, France,
and Belgium tairly howl. With a popola
tion of some fourteen millions of people,
Spain has managed to create a debt of over
three thousand millions of dollars. Of this
immense amount a portion known as the
consolidated debt, is supposed to pay three
per cent. per annum to its fortunate holders;
but for years these dividends have been
purely mythical. It is not strange, there
fore, that the credit of Spain should be low,
her nominalthree per cents selling at about
14 cents on the dollar. In other words,
Spain agrees topsay about 21! per cent. per
annam for what money she e able to bor
row.
Unable, however, to pay three per cent.
interest, Spain some time last fall offered
to enter into a compromise with her credi
tors, by which she bound herself to pay
one per cent. in lies of the three per cents,
and a minority of the bondholders, proba
bly on the principle of taking anything from
a bankrupt debtor, have accepted her
terms. A serious resistance has, however,
been made to this floanocial arraog ment.
The majority of the creditors, regserding it
as an arbitrary and spoliatry violation of
Spain's plighted fafth, have organised an
international leagae, and appeal for redress
e to the respeetie Goveramenta of England,
SHolland, France. sad Belgiam. From late
accounts these Governments are likely to
put on the screws and endeavor to oblige
Spain to comply with her engagements.
It is not, however, an easy matter to
squeeze blood out of a stone, and Spain has i
. long since mortgaged all her mortgageable o
f property to meet her own pressing wants.
a Even the Custom Honse receipts of Cuba,
f which were positively pledged to the Span
ish Bank of Havana Ia return for advances
- of some sixty millions of dollars, made by i
f that institution'to the colonial treasury of
the island, were vainly hawkedallover Eu
rope for a paltry sum of fifteen million dol -
1 lars which amount was finally advanced by
capitalists of Havads, at a rate of interest
which made even the Cortee growl, and
- the greater part of which advance went
into the pockets of the lenders, who were
previously heavy creditors of the govern
ment.
Moreover, Spain already gives evidence
of being utterly unable to pay even this
one per cent. upon her consolidated debt.
She cannot carry out even thr own miser
able composition. She has a property,
however, which today is not only unre
1 munerative, but has been a not insignifi
cant element in hurrying her into bank
ruptcy. Cuba can never again be a source
of income to Spain, and all further efforts
on her part to retain her dominion over the
a island can only result in the complete ruin
t of the mother country.
s But what has ceased to be property to
- Spain may possibly, even at this eleventh
e hour, be bartered by her for gold. The
w Cabans, to whom ultimately the possession
* of their country must accrue, would proba
bly enter into some arrangement with
3 Spain, whereby they could secure their in
dependence without the necessity of en
r tirely devastatiun the island; and there
e would be little difloulty in Cuba's obtain
- ing satisfactory sponsors for any such ar
- rangement among the leading nations of the
e world.
