FOR THE TINES.
SPRIN G..

"Come gentle spring, Ethereal mildness Come,
And from the bosom of yon dropping cloud,
While music wakes around veil'd in shower
OF shadowing roses, on our plains descend"
Thompson.
Hail sweetest season with thy rosy train
Come, and strew besuteous flowers Ger the plain
The opening lilies bloom white as snow,
And tulips with their brilliant colors glow.
Along the walks in blooming order stands,
The richtinged pinks placed there by ladies' hands,
Some red, some white, some streaked with azure
blue,
And others blushing wtha purple hue,
All pearled with shining drops of morning dew.
Their fragrance, like ambrosio, scents the air,
and their cropped blooms, adorn the braided hair.
The gay earth in smiling Spring seems glad,
And all nature in living verdure IS clad.
The hills, the dales, the lofty mountains trees,
Wave tl:eir green tresses to the tanning breeze
The wild plum-bush, haw, and hawthorn blow,
And stand like seeming mounds of drifted snow.
Next those succeed of more modest mein,
First dress'd in white and then robes of green
While leafess stand the oak and boomless birch,
And procrastinate like sinners at the church.
Ger marshes, swainps, savannus, yellow meads,
The asphodel its golden blossoms spreads;
The daisies deck the mountains grassy head,
And on the gale their dewy odours shed.
Unnumbered tribes OF Flora's hord blooms,
Fringe the wild lakes, and shed their rich perfumes:
The plains are freckled with their various dyes,
Like stars refulgent in the evening skies.
The world smiles in the Suns congenial blaze,
While tribes Of living things sport in his rays
And this great temple OF God, resounds his praise
In every grove the whistling songsters sing,
Like numbers falling from the breathing Spring.
And welcome back the fowery visagd Spring.
The sweet wild notes with joy, each heart inspire,
And men and madsns catch the glowing fire:
Then, each loved home resounds with merry song,
And music ybrates from ten thousand tongues.
The world, the genial year, with beauty crowns.
And Gsd's wide realms with Gods great praise re-
sounds.
Now Phebus sheds his horizontal ray,
Desert. the heavens and denies the day
As he sinks to rest on his ocean bed,
His last lines of light paint the clouds with red
One vas. blush now fills III empurpled west,
And the moveless seas sleep in tranquil rest.
But cease my muse, now cease thy songs of praise
Until the morning in the East shall blaze,
And then again resume the tranquil lays.

Mn. WISE ON THE CURRENCY QUEsTIoN.
Mr.. Wise in his late speech thus defines
his position in regard to the currency
question:
"Above all, give to the country safe,
sound, and uniform currency, and restore
confidence between man and man, and Gov
eminent and citizen, and your Golfers will
soon be full, and Heavens and the Peoples
blessings will rest upon your Administra-
ton.
"As to the best mode of giving to the
country safe, sound and uniform cur
rency, my opinions are well known to those
who know any thing about my opinions at
all. With Mr.. Madison, believe that a
national bdnk is absolutely necessary, and
must, try whatever other experiments you
please, be resorted to in the end. believe
such an institution not only constitutional
and expedient, but as a Southern man and
a States Rights man, support it as the best
friend of the South, which is more injured
by bad currency than any other section
of the country. and as the only means OF
creating hand Of the lar for the legsla.
tive department, to keep the legislative
power Of the custody and control of The pub
lie money out of the hands of the Execu
tive. The Executive has usurped tina
power by snatching the public money from
the vaults of national bank, would
create national bank, for the purpose o
restoring to Congress its constitutions
fiscal power if for no other purpose. Tha
is one of the modes Of reducing Execu
tive patronage. But my views on thi
question were delivered at length at tn
extra session of 1887. Now, will onl
say that will vote for such an instituto
if it be properly organized, and be locate
at the proper place; and that proper place
with me, will be as far as can get it fror
tho communicating and dangerous influence
of stock jobbing and brokers'

The Piece Of a Hundred Sous.
AN INTERESTING FRENCH TALE.

A young handsome pair had just re-
turned from the altar, where their destinies
were irrevocably united. They were about
to start from the country, and they had
hidden temporary farewell to the friends
who were present at the ceremony. For
short time, while their equipage was pre-
pairing, they found themselves alone.
The newly-wedded husband took one of
his brides hands into his own.
"Allow me" said he, "thus to hold your
hand, for dread lest you should quit me.
/ tremble lest all this should be an illusion
Ii seems to me that am the hero of one o.
those fairy tales which amused my boy,
hood, and in which, in the hour of happi
ness soree malignant fairy steps ever in tc
throw the victim into grief and despair!"
Re-assure yourself, my dear Frederick,
said the lady. ii was yesterday the wild
ow of Sir James Melton, and to-day, an
Madame de la Tour, your wife. Banisl
from your mind the idea of the fairy
This is not fiction but history.
Frederick Delator had indeed some rea
son to suppose that his fortunes were tn
work of fairy's wand; for in the course O
one or two short months, by seemingly in
applicable stroke of fortune he had bee
raised to wealth and to happiness beyon
mis- desires. A friendless orphan, twent
FIVE years old he had been a holder of
clerkship, which brought him scanty livel

THE ADMINISTRATION PARTY is
THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY.

We fully subscribe to the doctrine put
forth in the following terms by the Boston
Atlas:
The late Presidential election was. be-
yond dispute, the most really DEMOCRATIC
MOVEMENT that has taken place in the coun-
try since the adoption of the Constitution.
The contest was such as has never before
occurred. 1t was purely one between the
supporters of pure democratic principles,
and those who, under the name of friend
ship to democracy, favored principles its
very antagonists. Hence it was, that the
intelligent PEoPLE-the Democracy of NUM-
BEERS, in solid masses arrayed themselves in
support of truth and against error. Under
the same banner, and with the same prin-
ciples, as we have triumphed, must we con-
tinue to act now that we have obtained
success, if we would not only continue in
power, but deserve to continue. The late
Presidential election was the proudest vim
dication of the capacity of an intelligent
people for government that the annals
Of the whole world contain. From one
end of the land to the other, the people
assembled in masses to discuss and to de-
libcrate upon the claims of the opposing
candidates. They not only weighed well
the characters of the two men, but thew
paid even more heed to the principles they
professed. Truth triumphed over error
true republican, democratic principle over
its counterfeit, and triumphed too in the
face of stupendous and interested oppo-
sition of hundreds of thousands of the paid
Stipendiaries of Government. 1t is worse
than folly now to attempt to stem the tide
of Democracy. This country is essentially
and radically democratic, and one might
as well attempt to turn back the current of
the Mississippi to its mountain sources, or
to stop the sun in mid-heaven, as to check
or keep back the tide of the popular cur
rent. 1t may by bad management, by
worse than idle opposition, be driven for a
time from its proper channel, and may run
wild and carry havoc and desolation in its
course. So has it been in the davs when
Locofocoism polluted its stream. So would
it ever be, if the prominent men of the
country should adopt such line of policy
as the article we have quoted would rec
ommend.
Far different is the position which Pres
IDENT HARRISON, the choice of the Amer
lean Democracy, had ever assumed, and to
which he still adheres. His Inaugural Ad-
dress brcathcs throughout the purest spirit
of Democratic Principles. He has shown
that he is sincere Democrat. Those who
sincerely and truly support him and his
views. can be no other than democrats
The friends of the Administration are the
Democratic PARTY Of the country, and it
is worse than folly to yield the name tc
those who entertain no one feeling in com.
mon with the Democracy. We shall hence
forth in this journal, in speaking of the
friends of the Administration, call them by
their true names, DEMocRATs--the oppo
nents of the Administration, Locofocos OF
Tories. To us it seems that occasion fol-
the use of the term Wing has ceased.

A CIRCULAR TO OFFICE HOLDERS.

AS many persons protesting Jefefsonisn de.
mocracy with their lips, affect to regard the late
circular as antirepublican and tyranical we think
it may be useful here to remind them OF the views
and practice OF two former Presidents whom they
profess to respect The circular tread, in the
footsteps Of Jefferson, and carrie, out the views
Of Jackson, as the following extracts will serve
10 show.
MR.. JEFFERSON'S Circular.
Extract from Mr.. Jeferson's Circular addressed
to office holders under himSelf
"Ths President OF the United States has seen

Freedom Of election being essential to the mutual
OF the Government, and Of the diff
ferent branches OF the same government, so vitality
cherished by most OF our constitutions it is deemed
improper for officers depending on the Executive
Of the Union, TO attempt TO control or Influence

We trust the Globe will excuse US for not
