SARATOGA.
Sand banks and swamps, and dwarf pine trees
And streets with dust be-clouded--
score of shingle palaces
With squalid splendor crowded -
Old connoisseurs of ball and route
The young with envy eyeing,
Old gourmands crippled with the gout,
Their latest measure trying.
Grey politicians At their tricks
OF bargain, Satan aided;
The Tattersails Of Politics.
Where men for mules are traded,
Old maids at loggerheads with Time,
Their girhood wiles essaying;
And dandy amateurs OF rhyme
Their album gifts displaying.
A daily draft Of water. such
As that Of ancient Marah
Which the parched Arab would not touch
Upon his hot Sahara.
Wild Rob Roy's rule at dnner-hour,
Around the crowded table
That he shall take who has the power.
And he shall keep who's able.
Yet here disease with trembling limb,
And cheek without its roses,
And faded lip, with eye grown dim.
A mournful tale discloses.
Wo for these stricken ones Of earth
Why come they here to borrow,
From giddy crowds aud heartIess mirth,
An added weight Of sorrow
Oh sadly to the falling eye
The merry dance is moving.
Young forms Of beauty floating by
The loved ones and the loving
On bearded lip, and fair young face,
The a,tra's light is glowing,
Der manly form and maiden grace
A softcned lus;re throwing.
Bight--music--danccs mirth and song
Through bower and hall are waking;
Yet midst the gay and gliuering throng
How many hearts are aching
Fair brows, with gems and roses set
Would best beseem the willow;
And eyes now bright with smiles, will wet
With tesrs a seepiess pillow.
And this is Saratoga, Well
Give me, instead, the glory
OF Natures rock. and stream, and dell
And beetling promontory-
Her dance of waves on Oceans shore,
The br,eze-harp Of her mountains
The oaken shadows falling DER
Her fresh aud undrueged fountains

Welcome lone stranger, TO my cell,
A shelter find from stormy slnfe
Within my bosom thou shalt dwell,
And no rude hand disturb thy life.
Thou little knowst the pangs find,
Imprisoned here, sad, drear, alone
Thy cage contain'd nc thinking mind
To feel and mourn for freedom gone
There, thy loyeliest notes were sung
To charm thy captor's ear, at morn;
But here, alas the heart is wrung,
Unsoolh'd, uncontrolled, forlorn
And can il be that he is Just.
Who makes mIsfor'uncs child hi, prey;
To cage the bird should canss distrust.
Much more the mdn--his kindred clay.
Go, now, sweet bird, the winds sbate,
And seek thy liberty in fight;
will no, keep thee from thy mate,
Though other minds may think IT right,
And if again thou art ensnar'd,
And of thy liberty bcren.
Know that thy slavery is shTd

Singular Circumstance. On Thursday
the 29th, Mrs Stone in Louisville, left
her child lying upon the floor, while she
went few steps for buckle. of water.
Hearing scream, she turned and saw a
hog running across the street dragging the
child by It's foot By the assistance of
some men who were passing by, the child
was rescued without very material injury,
but not without some difficulty, as the ami
NAL seemed little disposed 10 give up its
prize. The child was about eight months
old and entirely within the door when sci
zed by the hog.

FIFTY NEW BANKS.

Every democrat should recollect, before
he casts his vote for members of tie Legs
lature, that application will be made next
winter for more than so NEW BANKS,
with capitol over7 MILLIONS !! This
is device brought up by the wings to de-
stroy the democratic party and give the vote
of the State to Henry Clay in 1910. In
some counties dissatisfied politicians who
have acted with our party short tine, are
the applicants-they know aOhat they are
to get, if successful. A few democrats
have given notice of intended application
under desire TO benefit the towns they
live in, but at the bottom OF every bank may
be found the moving finger of the wings.
We say, trust no man as a representative
who is in favor Of establishing new bank
no matter what his reason may be. Throw
him Off and vote for man opposed to this
scheme to break down Gov Porter and the
democratic patty Those complying will
combine all their interest and log roll SO
that if one bank will pass, so viii pass

his malice and spite against every man
whom the Bank Junto cannot by threats or
promises, use as tools, aud VIXEN this resort
fails, he will apply to a Lawyer or Doctor
TO help him out Of his dilemma. With this
help, he is able oace year to make real
set too, with the additional assistance Of his

hand back to him some home truths, and
demand proof of his vile and slanderous

the excuse, &" that if they ate not true, you
must prove them false" 4 more base and
