THE VACANT CHAIR.
A Tribute to the Memory of the Late
Senator Morton.
Now, toward the seat of Oliver P.
Morton we look with acleinn remem
brance and regret, aa for the two
sessions past we have looted toward
that of Uharlee Bmnner. Compara
tively few here knew Mr. Morton
well enough to know that for all his
strong, fearless, defiant nature, with
all bis mighty. Indomitable will,
which, like some fierce, royal creature
at bay, awed back -ven death for so
long, be was a man to be faithfully
and enthusiastically loved. Kren in
my slight acquaintance with him I
came to know that snnry side of bis
character across which neither ambi
tion, nor political strife, nor personal
animosities, nor disappointment, nor
suffering ever cast a lasting shadow.
I remember him as be was daring the
early part of the war, at bis home in
Indianapolis, when bis great heart
was alternately fired with enthusiasm
for the heroic deeds of the soldiers of
his Bute, and melted with tender pity
for the wounded and for the aorrow-
inr mothers, widows and children of
the fallen. I most pleasantly remem
ber him as, years later, I saw blm
dally, on one of bis journeys across
the Continent, accompanied b bis
family and a party of Iriends. I bad
fall opportunity to note bis charming
social qualities and his close and dear
and most happy domestic relations.
With bis little son, especially, be was
on terms of the most Intimate and
Jolly good nuderstanding and good
fellowship. A macb-abnsed and
maliened man. on all sides, and
through all bis public career, he yet
keDt the core of bis nature sweet and
wholesome. A sturdy partisan, giv
ing and receiving heavy blows in
nones t, open light, ne wa. never
ty nor maIlgnaut,nor even pugnacious
for the sake of strife. It was eon test,
not contention ; be was combative,
not quarrelsome. Never did the man
see u so great to me as during the
days and nights of stormy legislation,
toward the close of last winter ; even
In that tiresome period when the Hen
ate did little else than awing like a
pendulum between tbe north and
south wings of tbe Capitol, lu obedi
ence to the maDdste f the House,
that proved so like tbe Maker in
Scripture, who says "to the one ser
vant, 'go,' and be goetb ; to another,
'oome,' and be oometh." Mr Morton
was compelled to be borne baok and
forth In a chair, bat even then, at,d
perhaps more than ever, there was
something grand and regrant about
blm. In tbe chair of the paralytic
the same mind, untouched by blight,
tbe bold, triumphant will sat en
throned. With death already clutch
ing at bis feet, with cold, benumbing
bands, that pallid face was set with
unflinching resolve, while the un
dimmed fire of faith and purpose
gleaned In bis great dark eyes. In
Alexander H. Stephens we nave a like
instance 'of teuacleus and astonishing
vitality but "with a difference."
Toe venerable valetudinarian of
the House seems to bang on tbe skirts
of life with a clutch of aenlie obsti
nacy which nothing can relax, but in
the muscular torso and massive head
of Morton:a life seemed to entrench
itself against death, resistinc to the
last extremity the slow siege of tba
destroyer. I suppose they will eulo
gize blm soon in tbe Senate. Bat
what need ? His simple absence, bis
chair, most vacant when occupied,
are more solemn and even more de
pressing than any eulogy of the set
and soulless sort usnsliy delivered in
that Chamber. Besides there are but
few Republicans in that body worthy
to cralse him. Faithless and unbe
lieving as to the treat principles of
the Bpubllcan party the broaJ
huminltv. that spirit cf impartial
justice which has been Its soul, its
breath of life, "the only name where
by It can vet be saved" too many of
them have by their time-service, their
apoetacy, their political cant ana
hypocrisy, helped to mats it possiuie
for the place or the great War Gover
nor to be filled by a Knight of tbe
Uolden Circle.
EVILS OF THE DANCE.
Another Letter on the Subject from
Mrs. Gen. Sherman.
Mrs. Gen. Sherman, who is strong
ly opposed to tbe custom of darjoinir,
bas written several letters on the sub
' Ject, tbe following Is tbe latest : So
many are implicated la this evil cus
tom, either personally r in their
daughters, sisters or near relatives,
that there are very few who'
are entirely disinterested, and there
fore there are but few who
can form an Impartial judg
ment. Many clergymen shrink from
a public denunciation of the dance,
because their direct personal appeals
bave been ineffectual to pievent their
own relatives or the children of
prominent parishioners from joining
in It A verdict cannot be procured
against polygamy in a community of
poiygami8ts. Tne anger and mortifi
cation of our friends is natural and
not unexpected, but they bave be
trayed more malice tban they were
supposed to possess, since their only
defense of their pet amusements is In
dividual abuse. True, tbe dance ad
mits of no rational defense, but they
could personally plead "not guilty" to
its pernicious effects, and each leave
the verdict to time and a quiet exami
nation of conscience. The church
Iirj always condemned this kind of
dance. Tbe mildest of ber saints (St.
Francis de Halls) warns against such
excesses, and bishops of tbe United
States, in council, long since earnest
lv exhorted Catholics to refrain from
it. Parents are responsible for the
defiance of all this authority ; it is
thev who assume tbe risk for their
children and themselves. It Is not to
be expected that the young girls, who
are unconscious of evil in the begin
ning, should reflect long enough to
summon the moral courage to resist
the allurements of tbe dance, unless
with encouraeement and support of
their parents. To tbe honor of pure
maidenhood be It said, however, that
there are young girls who decline
from instinctive delicacy, even when
their narents would bave tbem join
tbe throng who dance down tbe broad
road of worldly pleasures.
Beauty.
When we attempt the study of tbe
material world with its deep-bidden
Dearls, much beauty and loveliness
are unfolded U. the natural eye.
Though disobedience to a divine rule
bas caused it to bring forth here and
there a thorn, and maybap we may
discover a broken bare-string, yet, as
God "tempers tbe wind to tbe shorn
lamb." so is the curse tempered with
mercy, and we find this world a fit
place to lead tbe soul, to heavenly
beautv.
In viewing the grandeur of natural
ohiects. of shells upon the Eea-ebore,
coral Islands, towering mountaius
whose summits apparently toucn tbe
tinted skv. gushing fountains and
beautiful flowers, we are almost led to
exclaim, "natural beauty is perfec
tion !" But we realize that this
natural loveliness is but typical of
purer grandeur a symbol of some
thing nobler and deeper which can
not pass away. Tbe lover of nature
sees beauty In tbe pebbles beneath bis
feet, In tbe seeds ana petals oi nowers,
and in tbe wayside bowlder that cen
turles ago was carried by rushing
waters over bill and valley ; yet all
this, with unlimited combinations, Is
but a faint specimen or beauty wltb
In.
As In this outer world, when the
deeper shades of night are dispersing
ana tne eann is oatnea in enuieence
and grove and meadow are clothed in
a robe of green, while tbe violet re
ceives a shade of blue and the butter-
cun a briebt yellow : so In tbe field of
the human beart, tbe luminous
rays from above shed many been
tllul and varied colors : and
the window of the soul is
opened to give tbem admittance
its fertile soil will yield tbe richest
fruits and brightest flowers. Some
dark clouds may hover about tbe
soul, but as tbe natural sun emerges
from the field of vision, dispersing
wivo penetrating ray tne surrounding
gloom, so tbe sun of tbe soul beams
lorui iu iraEBpareucy, ariving away
bue uarauess wituiu, aootniQg iqq
querulous heart and raising It from
its drooping state tc a more elevated
plane of being, where It can view
"bright rainbows o'er silver seas"
the world of beauty.
A writer once said : "He wbo bath
an eye for beauty, wbo bath tbe In
ward that answers to tbe outward,
can see more at one glance than tbe
poet can express or tbe painter put
upon canvass." All without has Its
inward correspondence, and Is the
correlative of tbe mind that exists be
yond time, tbe casket which incloses
the jewel which far surpasses It In
loveliness, and wbicb, by careful cut-
In
tore, grows brighter until every va
cancy of the soul is filled with musi
cal ftratns irom aoove. mm y"
ask, if the soul for a brief season les
sifftit of the illuminated pathway,
- . . n AK
must it neeaa be mat it ia .
no ! Let it be remembered that if In
this world some thorns are mingled
with the roses and some clouds with
the sunshine, in tbe spiritual world
nothing can mar our peace. How es
sential then that the mind be guided
to study both worlds ; yes, to search
the depths of beauty In the nuer
chambers of the heart ; for the detper
we study tbe more capable wiil our
minds be for reception. It is like
vlewine tbe starry regions through a
telescope, "the larper the Instrument
tbe more worlds are brought to view.
The question may arise, bow to se
curo beauty. We answer that
every act of our lives, every thought
that is breathed forth, either adds to
or depreciates beauty, mod molds us In
a measnre into its form. How many
do not realize that every good deed
performed adds another bright spot
to tbe heart and imprints it as a linea
ment in tbe features. As we fashion
ourselves, so we expect to live, for the
great and grand beauty of tbe soul is,
"it lives forever." When tbe out
ward man shall crumble back to dust,
th lawai within will soar aloft, high
er and higher in the realms of light,
until in the palace of the vast empire
it i i.e. fniinixta of nerfactton and la
Mrmltted to bathe in tbe fountain of
beauty.
Beauty. Courtesies to a Defeated General.
Ijoxdon. Dec. 15 A correspondent
at Plevna teletraDbs concerning Os-
man Pasha's reception by the Rus
sians. Tbe Grand Duke Nicholas
rode no to G-man's carriage, and for
some seconds the two chiefs gazed
Into each other's face without the ut
terance of a word. Then the Grand
Duke stretched out bis band, shook
tbe band of Osman Pasha heartily,
and said : "I compliment you on your
defense of Plevna. It Is one of the
most splendid military feats In his
tory." Osman smiled sadly, rose
painfully to his feet in spite of bis
wound, and said something wbieb I
could not bear. He then reseated
himself. The Russian officers all cried
bravo, bravo," repeatedly, and all
saluted respectfuly. There was not
one among them who did not gaze on
tbe hero of Plevna witn the greatest
admiration and sympathy.
Prince Charles of uomania, wno
had arrived, rode up, and repeated,
unwittingly, almost every word of
tbe Grand Duke, and likewise shook
bands with Osman, who again rose
and bowed, this time in grim slleuce.
He wore a loose b ue cloak, witn no
apparent mark to designate bis rank,
and a red ft He Is a large, strongly
built man. Tbe lower part of bis face
is covered with a short, black beard,
without a streak of gray, and bas a
large Roman nose, and black eyes.
"It Is a grand face," exclaimed Col.
Gaillard, tbe French military attache.
"I was almost afraid of seeing blm
lest my expectations should be disap
pointed, but be more tban fulfills my
Idea." "It is the face of a great mili
tary chieftain," said young SkobelofT.
"I am Klad to bave seen bira. Osman
Gbazl be Is, aud Osman the

A Noble Act.
Once upon a time young man was
sonvicted or a crime in this city, says
tbe Detroit Free Pres. and sent by
Recorder Swift to tbe State prison for
three years. He made an A Ho. 1
record in prison and was pardoned by
Governor Basley a short time before
tbe expiration of tbe term for wbicb
be bad been aeuteneed. On his re
turn to Detroit, be found employment
at five dollars a week In one of the
largest wholesale and retail bouses In
tbe city. He conducted himself In an
exemplary manner, and he began to
believe that bis lines had really fallen
In pleasant places, until one morning
an ominous message came Informing
blm that be was wanted In the . pro
prietor's private office. Appre
hensive that bis history bad
been disclosed, be entered
the office with a heavy heart, but re
solved to meet tbe issue like a man.
Tbe proprietor stood by bis desk hold
ing in one band a letter. His man
ner Indioated nothing of what was
passing in bis mind, but with a de
precatory gesture be banded tbe letter
to bis clerk and told blm to read it.
Tbe young man glanced hurriedly
over tbe letter (a cowardly anony
mous production), which was simply
a recital of the dark episode in bis
career.
"Is that true 7" Inquired tbe pro
prietor.
"It la true," was tbe sad reply.
The merchant's face lighted In an
Instant. He grasped the abashed
and tremblinc elerk bv tbe hand and
said to bim : "You are the man I
want. You may tfraw thirteen dol
lars a week from this time until
further notice, and at the first oppor
tunity I shall give you charge of t
floor. I can trust a man who will
face tbe truth In this fashion and un
der these circumstances, and you may
count upon a permanent eituation so
long as I am In business."
What that young man said in re
sponse to this unexpected declaration
of confidence has not yet been told :
but tbe merchant, whose sense or
ustice and love of truth was so sig
nally Illustrated, may be assured that
be has gained a loyal friend, and
earned tbe deathless gratitude not
only of that young man, but of al
bis family, it is an example worm
more than whole decades of Im
prisonment.
Why Colors Can Never Be Photographed.
graphed.
It Is now universally admitted by
chemists and physicians that natural
colors can never be produced by tbe
proeess of photography. There is
broad philosophical reason for this be
lter. Uolor bas no objective existence.
It is simply tbe brain's Interpretation
of tbe rapidity with which the waves
of tbe ray of light beat against tbe
retins. Beats more rapid produce
tbe sensation of tbe mind known
as violet: beats less rapia
that known as red. Tbe violet
and tbe red are nothing but tbe vibra
tions of the ether until they reach tbe
optic nerve, and communicate to
that the vibrations wbicb tbe brain
translates. Until collodlan, or some
otber sensitive agent, can be made to
vibrate like tbe optic nerve, and can
be endowed with intelligence like tbe
brain, tbe undulations that fall upon
It In a ray or light will remain unau
lations and nothing more. In other
words, It Is as impossible to photo
graph color as It Is to photograph
sound. Hew lork.
Twins and Triplets.
Miles Klyncb keeps a grocery on
tbs corner of Catherine and Union
streets. Mr. Klyneh baa been
marked man among bis friend. The
reason Is that Mr. Klyneh bad, dur
ing tbe abort space of six years, be
come tbe happy frtber of eight chll
dren, having been four times blessea
with twins. Hut people soon got tired
of wondering at Klyneh, as people in
this busy world will get tired of won
dering at anything, however startling,
and, aa a matter of course, bis soul
grew lad, until last Tuesday night
when hi wife presented blm with
three bouncing boys. Tbe new arriv
als were more than Mr. Klyneh ex
pected, but be was none tbe less proud
or tbem.
All of the children are fine healthy
babies, and at last accounts were all
doing well. Tbe news of this sudden
Increase of the population spread rap
idly, and many interested-In so im
portant an event bave visited the
house.
These last arrivals place tbe Klyneh
family on record as having bad elev
en children in seven years. Of this
number, five are living and six are
dead. Chioago Journal.

Report the Adjutant-General of
Ohio.
The annual report of Adjutant-Gen
eral Karr gives the following Instruc
tive faets regarding the military or
ganization in Ohio :
Tbirtv-nlne companies of infantry,
one troop of cavalry, and one four-gun
battery bave been accepted uuring
tbe year. The present force consists
of 145 companies of Infantry, three
troops of cavalry, five four-gun bat
teries, and four two-gun batteries.
The infantry is organized into seven
teen egi men ts and battalions, except
nlna nnattanhad noaapaoiea. - Toe or
ganization of cavalry bas been aban
doned for tbe present, owing to tbe
fact that It is more expensive and
tbe State bas no arms suitable for
cavalry. Four-gun batteries are
recommended in tne place or two-
buds, tbe latter beine too smill. A
good battery can only be sustaineu in
a city, or a large, enterprising village,
and must then be in good bands.
Several of tbe present batteries are
retarded as inefficient. Measures
will be taken shortly to disband them
The guns will be returned to tbe arse
nal or transferred to live organize
tions. Tbe Cleveland Uattery re
ceives special meutlon for a well
earned reputation. Tne companies
called out during the strike turned
out for duty fully twenty-five per
cent, stronger tban their average at
tendance at drills or parades. Tne
Adjutant General does not favor pay
Ins a per diem for lime spent at pa
rade drills or encampments. It
should suffice for the State to furnish
camp and garrison equipage, subsis
tence and transportation.
