THE SUNDAY EXPRESS.
We call special attention to to-mor-row's issue of THE EXPRESS. Among the features will be an article by Ella Wheeler Wilcox on "A Woman's Literary Career.'.' Bab's weekly budget of New 3rk gossip is brighter than usual and Edgar Wakeman's letter from the Azores is the most interesting of any of the series. There will be the full telegraphic report, including the verdict of the Cronin jury, which is expected to-day, and all the local news.
Advertisers will confer a favor on us and do themselves a service by handing in their copy early.
Perhaps the powers that be in city affairs now that their chief friends, the gamblers, are in danger will consent to tke passage of a licanse ordinance as a tub to the whale.
As usual when a citizen's movement is on only Rapublicaus bolted the party ticket at Chicago. Republican votes elected the independent ticket. We are waiting for the day when Democrats will bolt their ticket and vote for independent candidates or when they will vote for a personal friend on an opposition ticket. It is invariably the case that "Republicans are the losers by these diC* versions from party lines.

EXCHANGE ECHOES.
Detroit Tribune: You will notice that the Southern tributes to J'elt Davis are paid to him as a representative of the lost cause, personal virtues being secondary whenever alluded to.
St. Paul Pioneer Press: Sir. Reed has begun w#U. The people of any stafe or section ought to concern themselves less about what places ure accorded to their particular representatives than about the seleutlon of the IHtest.'men possible tor each place within the committee appointments.
Philadelphia Press: Secretary Proctor's reply to the telegram from Mayor Shakespeare, of New Orleans, notifying him of the death of Jelferson Davis was dlgnitled, sensible, and In excellent spirit. However, he might have replied with equal fitness lu the words of another Shakespeare:
The evil that men do live after them. Dayton Journal. In a general sense Hie patriotic people of the north entertain about the "Bathe sentiment touching JelT Davis that the Christians at the crucifixion did of Judas: or that the patriots of the. revolution did of Benedict Arnold.
Nobody doubts the ability, courage or devotion or the chief organizer of the conspiracy and rebellion to perpetuate slavery, but till his brilliant qualltler as a man make his treason the more lntamous. Of course he was a brave limn, so were all Ills vlc'ltns, so are all desperadoes who engage in conspiracy and rebellion. That Is nothing new In world's history.
New York Commercial-Advertiser: The reply of Mr. Redtleld Proetor. secretary of war, to the dispatch of Mr. Shakespeare, mayor of New Orleans, announcing the death of Mr. Jolferson Davis, was marked by good feeling and perfact taste and tact. As the late Mr. Davis did not regard himself as a citizen of the Unleed States, there could have been no propriety in ilylng the war department Hag at halt mast In recognition of his death. But whtlothls was obviously true. It was no easy task Mr. Proctor to say so in words that should combine dignity with kindliness. That his response was a model In every respect Is an honor as well to his head as to his heart.
Only a Spectator.

COMES WELL RECOMMENDED.
The scene waa poetical enough. .Looking out from the piazza you could let your'eye range down a great slope, with the silvery boundary of a noisy brook glittering in the moonlight, and beyond that a grove of trees, nodding and whispering over deep, shadowy paths, to the right an old mill with a wheel that was a study for a painter, and to the left long sweeping lines of meadow, cornfield and farms. On the piazza, their boots elevated to the level of the railing, their chairs tilted back against the posts, their mouths actively pulfing two very fragrant cigars, sat Frank Hays and Rodney Edmonds, men ju»t starting out on life's broad battle field, and lingering out their last days of boyhood together. Schoolmates, college chums, fast friends from childhood, they spent these days, when youth was melting into manhood, in boating, fiahiag, driving, riding, chatting and—smoking. It was Rodney's first visit to Cliff Wharton, and he was enjoying the free country life, home .pleasures and social interoourse as only an orphan boy brought up in the city can do. "A lawyer," said Frank, after a long silence. "Well," he musingly added, "that will do, but not for me. You were always the bookworm, Rodney." "It scarcely amounts to a choice," said his
comDanion,
Another long silence then Rodney said: "When is the wedding, Frank?" "Oh! aot very soon, must make my way first. I have not your fortune start with, you know." "She is very charming, but it puzzles me how could you ever go abroad to seek a wife, Frank, with such a sweet bird singing in the home nest." "You mean Susy.' Susy is my very dear sister, but Meta •'Yes, I know. I've heard it all fifty times. You promised to tell me Susy's story." "There is very little to tell. My Uncle Ray, as you know, is a sea captain One of his voyages eighteen years ago took him to the coast of Africa. Coming home, when they were some five days out, they found the remains of a

The first measure to be reported by the house appropriation committee is a deficiency bill to cover a shortage in the government printing office. This is a time-honored situation when Republicans sueceed the Democrats in control of the purse strings. The retiring house made the appropriations after it was known that the party was going out of power. According to the Damocratic custom the appropriations were fixed at less than the actual needs. By this moans it is made to appear that the Democrats expended less than thoir sue cessors, the Republicans.
wreck, and, lashed to a floating spar, Susy. My uncle, being a bachelor, brought the baby to his sistei, my mother, who, having no child but your humble servant, adopted Susy. I think that to both my parents she is as dear as their own child, and well she deserves it. She is as gentle and winning as she is fair and graceful, full of talent and animation, yet the most domestic, homeloving little darling. She is housekeeper and child in one, with her neat little figure and golden curia. In short "In short," said a merry voice at the window, "the most delightful person in the world to recommend to a friend to marry. Pray, who is your paragon "Frank? Not Meta, for her hair is black as midnight without a moon
Here something in Frank's merry eyes and his companion's confusion enlightened Miss SuBy as to the paragon in question, and the crimson Hush on her oneeks deepened under her adopted brother's eye. Too well bred to betray her consciousness, she turned the &ubject, and soon had both the "boys," HS her mother called them, chatting easily on the thousand incidents that make up eollege life.
It was not until later that Rudney, having retired, was sitting at his window over the porch, that Miss Susy gave vent to her feelings. Frank had left his room to lind a novel, and Susy was on the porch still, when she saw him enter the parlor. "Come here!" said the little maiden, drawing her tiny figure to its full height, "and answer for your sins."
Her tone of laughing indignation had mothing very terrific in it, so Frank came. "What sin in particular, Susy?"
But Susy wa6 very quiet again, and by the moonlight he saw a grave, sad shadow on her face. "Are you tired of me?" she said, trying to resume her tone of banter, "that you are trying to get me a new place by good reference, or—oh, Frank, how could you?" and she fairly broke dowu in a passionate fit of sobbing.
He was in love himself, and he gave the affection of a fond brother to Susy What wonder, then, that he read her heart in the change of face and tone, and his pitying tenderness was all aroused? "Susy, Susy, I never dreamed of this."
And the listener above softly closed the window and crept silently to bed. But below, on the porch, Frank held his little sister in his strong arms till she lay there quiet. Not one word was spoken for a long time then, as he bent over her and pressed a kiss upon her forehead, she whispered softly: "You will Weep my secret, Frank?" "As I would my honor," he answered, and she slipped away from him and past the rcoaa where Kidney listened for her light Mvps to gain her own room and chide her heart for its Weakness. Memory was busy, too. From her early childhood her home had been in this quiet country seat, where but few visitors broke the regular routine that domestic love kept from monotony. And in this life came the visit of Rodney Edmonds, a man whose high intellect, gractfal courtesy and free face were but the outward signs of a noble, true heart, a keen, sensitive honor, and a christian mind.
And the simple little girl, while she felt that his attentions were sweet, his presence dear to her, never awoke to the knowledge of her own love till the galling suspicion that shr was being forced upon his notice told her how precious his own freely offered love would have been to her. The next day the friends were in the city, and in the demure little figure that stood upon the steps to wave them adieu there was little trace of the wounded woman's heart that had paesed the night in the agony of unrequited love.
Rodney Eimonds was a silent-com-panion on the journey cityward, aod Frank gave up trying to coax him into his old merry self again. He was thinking of the lonely home that awaited him, the long life of longing for companionship, the gifts of domestio love that all his wealth can never buy and in contrast he pictured the home he had left, the fairylike beauty, whose hand shed its peculiar charm on every Hpot whose voice made music in ^very room whose loving heart was broken by her adopted brother's love, for so, in his blindnesp, he interpreted the scene of the night before, and his indignation was strong doniCi'mes, as he thought that her hap
•ii"Vv~A-N
"the family in a direct
line haye~ been lawyers, judges now and then, for generations back, and my guardian had me educated to commence law from a boy, as a matter of course. You can bring me your first suit, old boy!" "Merchants do considerable of that sort of fighting, generally, I believe."
piness lay so near the hand that had crashed it. Two long years to Susy passed before she saw Rodney Edmonda. Frank was married and living in the city, and came but seldom to Cliff Wharton. When he did, his companion was Meta. Many times they had urged her to come to their city home, but she,.pleading her mother's lonlinese, had refused, and Frank, knowing her secret, let her have her way. He had tried many times to win Rodney home with him, but without success. A thousand pleas of business, prior engagements and what not stood always in the* way. But in good time the summons came.
Thus ran her brother'# letter: "SUSY, DEAR: I have Btrange, sad news for you, and you must come to us. Meta is ill, not dangerously so, /I trust, but confined to her own room, and I have another invalid. Rodney Edmonds was on the train at the time of the collision of the 17th and badly hurt. I had him brought here, for I can not truet him to hired nurEes. Come, little sister, and nurse Metfl, that my hands may be free for Rodney'B wants. FRANK."
And she obeyed the call. Strictly she held her brother to the words of his letter. She was Meta's nurse, he Rodney'®.
It was a day when the early summer is just whispering of coming glories that jdney Edmunds left his room for the first time. Susy was in the sitting-room when she heard his voice in the entry and Frank's cheery words of encouragement. There was no chance to rup away, so she turned the large arm chair to the oorner and crouched down till she could steal out in the coming twilight unperceived. And there, after much idle chat, when the gathering sbadows made confidence secret, she heard Rodney's error. Shg knew then how the thought that she loved another had kept him from Cliff Wharton how he had never let his heart stray from its love for her, hoping that time would erase Frank's-image, and he begged as a man begs for his life, that Frank would treat him candidly and tell him if the old dream was dead and her heart free for another's seeking.
He would have Bpoken when the soft little hand of his sister fell on his lips to close them, and in the half darkness she knelt by Rodney's couch. In alow tone, her blushes hidden by the friendly twilight, she told him all, and her little cold hands and trembling tones showed that she was sacrificing her maidenly recticence to make his happiness. No cloud of such cruel doubt and error must stay between them.
And when the golden head was drawn, oh! so closely to Rodney's heart, Frank brushed off the tears from his own cheeks to say, cheerily: "She will prove a treasure, Rodney, she comos to you so well recommended." —[Peterson's Magazine.
