Days Of yore with dreams of pleasure,

Bringing, through the mists of years,
Visions of departed gladncss-

Dreams Of youth and thoughts of flowers,
Fading, but surprising sweet
Skies, where brightly fled the hours,
Never more the sight 10 greet.

In the SENATE, today the bill fixing uniform
day throughout the United States for The election
of President and Vice President, was defeated by
vote Of % 10 25-all the Wing Senators, save
Messrs. Tallmadge and Henderson, voting for its
defeat In vain did Messrs. Anterior and Allen
urge the passage of the BILL to preserve in its pu-
rity the very foundation upon which our nsti,u-
lions rest-the elective franchise. In vain did
they call TO their minds the disgraceful frauds
which were perpetrated at the last Presidential
