For the Washington Sentinel.
A DREAM.

The fragrant spring breath of our southern climes
In balmy sweetness through my lattice stole
The solemn pealng of the matin chimes
Breathed peace and dpromise TO my troubled soul
With brow still fevered by the nightlong watch,
And spirit saddened by deepseated care;
From grief and pain respite brief TO snatch,
sought the dewy coolness of the air.
Above the bees low humming song was heard,
As home he hurried with his honeyed freight
The thrilling carol of the mocking- bird
In love flight lowering round his gentle mate.
soothing languor DER my senses crept,
sank unconscious meath leafy tent;
But twas no dreamess slumber that slept
Would that my life in that sweet dream were
spent.
The matin chimes still lingering on my ear
Faint, tlendng with the love song sweet and wild
Methought / entered in the house Of PRAYER
With her, the loved, the absent, by my side
The beads Of jet around her neck that cung
Instructive seemed their envied bliss to know
The ebon cross that on her bosom hung
Now rose, now sank upon its couch Of snow
Her rosy fingers in my hand were pressed,
And, as we knelt beneath the holy shrine,
Her arm reposed upon my throbbng breast
Her eye beamed with tenderness divine.
Deep, fervent were my vows, that unto death
My angel love Id cherish, I'd adore;
Her frail form trembled, as with faltering breath
The vows uttered she repeated DER.
The thrill of rapture was too keen to bear,
The beating of my heart convulsive grew,
My dream was broken, and that vision dear
In airy nothing vanished from my view
And then, once more, with anguished brow,
! sought the bed Of sickness and of pain.
No earthly solace can avail me now;
That dream of bliss I'll never know again.
My burning love ever must control,
No hope cherish that my pain will end
For she, serene in purity ofsoul,
Still deems me, not the lover, but the friend

A SMART Boy.--The Boston Post furnishes
the following item, which gives evidence of ris.
ing talent among the Juvenile population in
that city:
A bright little boy, about nine or ten years
old, makes it a business to peddle lozenges in
one q the Chelsea ferry boats. On offering his
sweets a day or two since to a couple Of smart
young men, they took occasion to banter him.
What do you ask?s "Two cents roll. -
Well, that's cheap enough I'm afraid You'll
TAIL, said one. Yes,s added the other, dyour
expenses must be enormous; / should think
you'd strike; just reflect what it costs you for
ssnop.rent; however, we'll take roll apiece"
They're three cents now,' said the boy.
Three cents you said they were only twon
Well, Pee esfruck ~ The young man acknow-
lodged the corn by buying the lozenges at the
advanced rate.
That urchin will be sure to make his way mp
in the world.

Truly Yours,

",hat party considerations DO not weigh

ence 10 The Maine Law The Democrat is
substantially correct. We have said, pub.
licly and privately, tina, we would support
no man for Office whose vote and influence
would be given in favor Of repeal Of tho
Maine Law, or who would strive to impair
its efficiency. We stand by these declara-
lions now. When made, we had no refer
ence 10 vOles 10 be given for, or 10 be re.

party. Thsy had a broader meaning, and

we are connected refused 10 give us such,

We have made no bargains, agreements 10
vote for any bu. wing candidates, and We
were never asked TO vote for Morrill, men in
return for the support which j, is alleged
they have given The wings. We can con-
ceive that case might arise when itmight
become our duty 10 vote for friends Of tenn.
perance, even though they might no, be
called wings, bu, thus far no such case has

may rely upon. The only way in which

COON IN THE CAPITOL.

II having been stated iha, ''live COON
was recently found in the Capitol at Wash
ingtun, The N. Y. Pos, (Democra,ic) thu,
philosophers: . A..s
II is stated that few mornings since, a.
the boys were lighting a fire ia The Capiio
at Washington, Two bright eyes were seer
peeDing from q dark corner, and these eyei
were asceriained 10 belong 10 veriiablt
live coon.
Now this is ominous. Il is q curious fact
iha, o live coon should have got into the
Capitol. 5
AT least, il would be curious, but for tht
fact Tim, many ofihe men whom the demo
Gratis have had there during The present SEES
sion, 10 DO the public work, instead Of al
tending 10 their business, have been en-
gagged in making paths tor The coons 10 60
into the Capitol. .n
The Joke Of the thing, 80 far IA these
democrats are concerned, is that these bright
eyed coo,is are 10 crowd out the very mer
who have made paths for them. Indeed
instead o: 'peepins from dark corners, the,
will lounge leisurely Gu the cushioned sea,'
on which compIacent democrats now sit.
But il is said TIL The c0ons will not bt
conten, with their occupancy Of the Capitol
II Is thought that one Of their number may
ge, into the White House. The present oc
cupan, has been getting il ready for coon
He rather prefers, il is thought, tina, III,
coon should come in where he goes out
His acts look Ina, way. He tore up I
long inaugural address that he wrote ant
delive.ed once, just 10 make a mes, for ;
coon Of tho pieces.
The worst aspect Of ihe case is, ,ha, many
of the democrats about in the country ARE
incliuing TO favor the coon. They say
that I'VE must have coon or bloodhount
In the White House, one or the other, the
coon is TO be preferred.
Benjamin +. Butler, an eminent lawyer
once Al 'rney. General ofihe uniied States
has given an opinion 10 ,ha, effect. II wal
volunteered. but that does not detract any
from its weight
Now, we do no, think that the Capiio
and The White Hovse should be surrender
ed TO either the cOons or the bloodhountls
More suitable occupants can be found. The
bloodhounds are savage and ferocious, and
the cOons are destructive. The former we
have no doubt, can be kept out; bul the
latter are cunning and sly, and they some.
times creep through small holes.
