THE LAST INTERVIEW.

BY AMELIA.
Here, in this lonely bower, where first won thee
4 come, beloved, beneath the moons pale ray,
10 gaze once more, through struggling tears, upon
thee,
And then to bear my broken heart away;
dare not linger near thee as brother;
feel my burning heart would still be thine;
How could hope my passionate thoughts to smo-
thcr,
While yielding all the sweetness to another,
That should be mine!
But fate hath willed it /; the decree is spoken
Now life may lengthen out its weary chain,
For, ref of thee, It's loveliest links are broken;
May we but clasp them all in Heaven again!
Yes, thou wilt there be mine, in yon blue Heaven
There are sweet meetings Of the pure and fond;
Oh, joys unspeakable to such are given,
When the sweet ties Of love, that here are riven,
Unite beyond.
A glorious charm from Heaven thou dost inhert
The gift of angels unto thee belongs;
Then breathe thy love in music, that thy spirit
WAispti " AIc, tAlOueu tillAo oWA SWCSt
songs;
And though my coming life may soon resemble
The desert-spots, thro' which my steps will flee,
Tho round thee, then, wild worshippers assemble,
My heart will triumph if thine own but tremble
Still true TO me.
Yet, not when on our bower the light reposcs
In golden glory, wilt thou sigh for me;
Not when the young bee seeks the crimson roses;
And the far sunbeams tremble DER the sea
But when at eve the tender heart grows fonder,
And the full soul with pcnsive love is fraught.
Then with wet lids DER these sweet paths thou'lt
wander
And, thrilled with love, upon my memory ponder
With tender thought.
And when at times thy bird-like voice entrances
The listening throng with some enchanting lay,
If am near thee, let thy heavenly glances
One gentle message to my heart convey;
ask but ths-a happier one has taken
From my Iona LIE. Al. .,---' .--a,o,,o,
| 1 ask uu, tuls. and promise thee, unshaken,
To meet that look of love-but, oh! twill waken
Such raptures mere !
| And now FAREWELL dare not lengthen
| These sweet sad moments out ; to gaze on thee
Is bliss indeed, yet it but serves to strengthen
| The love that now amounts TO agony;
This is our last farewell, our last fond meeting;
The world is wide, and we must dwell apart;
NV shirt gives thee, now. its last wild greeting,
With lip to lip, while pulse to pulse is beating,
| And heart 10 heart.
Farewell farewell! Our dreams Of bliss is over,
All save the memory Of our plighted love;
now must yield thee to thy happier lover
Yet oh, remember, thou art mine above
IT'S sweet thought, and, when by distance partet
IT will lie upon our hearts, holy spell
But the sad tears beneath thy lids have started'
Alas alas we both are broken hearted
i Dearest, farewell!

FRIDAY, JUNE FL, 1914.

MINERS BANK OF DUBUouE.-The follow
ing gratifying intelligence, from the Miners
Express, was unavoidably crowded out Of our
last. If the people select proper Legislators
at the coming election, the attornies of the
Bank will be met at every point, and the Ter
ri.ory rid Of this institution, the transactions
of which have Already cast stain upon the
tit!e-page Of Iowa.
A Quo WAAAkNANro ORDERED TO BE FILED
AGAINST THE Miners BANK OF DUBUQUE
During the last term Of the District Court for
Dubuque county, Mr.. Rogers made motion
that the Prosecuting Attorney be directed by
the Cour, to file an affirmation, in the nature
of Quo Warranto, against the Miners Bank
of Dubuque. The motion was resisted by Mr..
Davis, on the part of the Bank, and advocated
by Mr.. Rogers. After full hearing of the ar
guments. the Court promptly decided that the
Prosecuting Attorney should file the Quo
Warranto, and appointed S. Hampstead, Esq.
10 aid him in conducting the proceeding.
We rejoice that the Miners Bank is, al last,
brought into Court. We have no doubt that
it has violated its charter, and will be so de-
clared, if trial can ever be obtained. The
counsel for the Bank will oppose every ohsta-
Gle to fair investigation, and stave off the
anticipated verdict as long as possible. In the
mean time, we earnestly urge our friends in
the Territory. to pledge their canda,es to go
for the unconditional! repeal of this institution.
Between the Court and the Legislature. Iowa
will ultimately be relieved from the disgrace
of this swindling machine, belonging 10
bankrupt concern Of another State. This al
len enemv-nourishipp into life from the pu-
trid carcas Of the Illinois Bank, in defiance Of
public sentiment, has invaded our soil. The
true democracy have declared war of ex,er
minaiion against this maurading intruder; and
this war be it longer or shorter. will no, termin-
ate until the foe is dead and buried. Miners

The Antl-PlneIayIng BlII

Has passed the House Of Representatives, a
democratic body; but when il came before the
Senate; where the coons are in the majority, Mr..
Bl.RRIEN, the Chairman of the Judiciary Com
'nittee, reported the bill back, with an amend
meni, which postpones its operation until after
the next election! This is the bill, as our rea-
dcrs are aware, which was introduced by Dr
Duncan, of this State, in the House, to provide
for the holding of the Presidential election Oh
the same day in every State; so, if possible, tC
prevent another system of double voting, such ai
was practised by the Bella Badger coons in ls4O
But the federal Senate are determined, itseems
to throw no obstacles in the way, to prevent tn
election of Henry Clay to the Presidency lie
the people remember this.

Hunting "A NEQm!

An old friend of ours, ros;dngm in SteubenylLle'
passed through Cadiz last week, on general
business tour through the State. He had been
an original and warm friend of MIR. VAN BURrN
and he told US he was hunting Van Buren, man
who would not vote for Gov. Polk, but as ye
had not succeeded in finding such person
He said, however, that he came across large
number Of Democrats who would not have votet
for Mr.. Van Buren, had he been nominated, wh'
will surely vote for Gov. Polk.
The Cadiz sentinel. [volume] (Cadiz, Ohio) 184?-1851, 1844-06-19
Indeed!

The Richmond Wing, the Clay organ in Vir-
ginia, thinks Gov. Polk an unfit candidate for
the Presidency, because his private character is
50 pure that naught can be said against it. That
paper says, the public man, against whom no.
thing can be said by any party, is but poor apol-
ogy of man at best. We do not want such
men at the head of affairs" &c. We suppose
if Gov. Polk had fought duels, wrote challenges
.'swore terribly in Flanders" attended horse ra
ces and cock-fghts, was undcr-bonds to keeE
the peace, and had jumped Jim Crow on every
political queslon--wo say, if Gov. Polk pos
sessed all these qualifications, then, no doubt
the Richmond Wing, and kindred prints, woul'
consider him right clever fellow, and full
competent to discharge the duties of Presden

" HENRY CLAY has written letter denying
that he ever. used such words as, 'if gentlemen
will not let us have black slaves &c" We be-
lieve it is a rule of law that the testimony ofan in
torestcd witness will be rejected in all cases,
particularly when the case is made out by the un,
contradicted testimony Of disntercsted Witnesses
Mr.. Rich, of Vermont, Mr.. TAYLOR. Of New York
and the files of the National Intelligcncor prove
that Mr.. Clay, did use those words. They are
honest men, and their testimony is unimpeachet

We can scarcely persuade ourself TO believe
that the sympathy of the federal coons for MF.
Van Buren, is owing to the fact that they had
some 20 or 80 wagon loads of olectoneering
documents printed, to be circulated against him;
supposing that he would certainly be nominated
BY the Democratic National Convention. We
rather suppose that the sympathy arises out o.
pure love and admiration for the mani! VIC

their sympathy so far as to drop the I" Mill Boy
