INDEPENDENCE, Nov. 18th 1882.
Well, Mr.. Editor, the election is over,
and we, the wings, have been badly
beaten, but il is hoped those to whose
care the Government Of this Union for
the next four years has been entrusted
Will prove competent to the task, and
that all the good things, promised by
the Democratic party, will be distributed
over the nation; that the Chief Magis-
trate'S nervous system, will become SO
strengthened that the host Of office seek
ers who will expect to share his boun-
ties, Will not so Cypress him, as to bring
about a result similar to that which &C.
Cured previous to a certain battle in
Mexico.
The beauties of summer have depart
cd, the season for pic MICS and celebra-
tons has past, and Autumn with IFS
chanseiul dress, is rapidly doing ITS
work, upon the floral grandeur of field
and forest. Our farmers are busy gath
ernS their corn, which kind provi-
dence has bountifulIy bestowed upon
them IN return for their labor. Numcr-
Gus huSklngs are got app on the prin-
cIple that 'many hands make light
work." their labor is lightened by the
song, the jest, and the laugh that goes
round, while the sparkling cider, or per-
maps something stronger, is freely cir
cnlated as the work goes bravely on.
" hen enough has been done, the com
pany repair TO the house OF their hos

But as it has been in the past, so it
