And let the world go by.
On. never hearts beat halt sn light
With crowned Queen or King!
Oh, never world was half so bright
AZ is our fairy-rinS,
Dear love.
Our ha!lowcd fairy-rinS.
Our world OF empire is not large,
But priceless wealth il holds;
a little heaven links margc to marge,
But what rich realms it folds!
Aud claspins all from outer strife
Sits love with foldcn wing,
A-brood Ger dearcr life III lie,
Within our fairy RUG,
Dear love!
Our hallowcd fariy-ring.
Thou leanest thy true heart on mine,
And bravoly Dearest up
Aye minglins loves most precious wine
In life's most bitter cup!
And evermore the circling hours
Now gifts Of glory bring
We live and love Ike happy flowers
All In our fairy-ring,
DoWr love!
Our hallowcd fuiry-riug.
We've known a many sorrows, sweet
We've wept a many tears,
And ofteu trod with trembling feet
Our pilgrimage of years.
But when our sky grew dark and wild,
All closelicr did we cling:
Clouds broke to beauty as you smiled,
Peace crowned our fniry-ring,
Dear love!
Our hallowed fairy-riug.
Away, grim lords of murderdomi
Away. oh Hate and Strife.
Hence jewellers. reeling drunken from
Your feast of human life!
Heaven shield our little Goshen round
From ills that with them spring,
And never be their footprints found
Within our fairv.ring.
Dear love!

PUBLIC SENTIMENT on THE sorrM-sIDE.

fOr ne EHTfTfF.
Messrs. Editors IL have gathered enough Of pub
lie sentiment, since my return Ia tho country, To he
satisfied that Mr.. Wise will receive the full Dem
ocra,ic vote in this part of the State. md, II his
friends will exert themselves. II may DO consider
ably increased. The furious aud unIncasnrcd attacks
of The opposition, nj first, caused some dissatisfaction;
but that has passed away, and the attacks themselves
have had a good effect. They are regarded rs so
many proofs of the Importance of our candidate 10
the cause of Dclnocracy-as 81 many evidences Of
his ability 10 beat down the combination nf 'smS, ="
recently formed To break down the gunrnntc"s Of the
Constitution, and tn defeat the successful operation of
republican principles. Our honest, true and able
leader will find himself supported, sustained and
checrrd by the inyimcible army; and the od standard
upon which victory lfls 80 often percllrd' VIII not DC
allowed 10 full into the hands of our enemies.
In this part of the country there are many who are
not purtizana, but who vote and express themselves
according. IA they may deem the Interests ut the couil-
try involved. Mr.. Wise will receive from such, q cor
dial support-a support strengthened, and M many
cases obtained, on account of the relations likely I"
spring up ut no distant day on tho subject ot slavery,
between the two grand divisions of the Union. Such
men have great respect for and confidence III Mr..
Wise. They respect him, because during his life he
has ever been found bold and honest enough To ark
no quarter of corruption, nor to give it, because his
heart was always ready Ia rebel against what hc deem
ed an uniustitiahlc and tyranmical exercise of the pow
II of place; and because his political cnrccr is the OPP
positr of political dishonesty. They hnvc confidence
in him, because he has always been deeply iInbued
with the spirit of our institutions; BECAUSE tho most
successful and brilliant efforts of his life have been
made in defence of the South against the attacks of
AbuIitionisrn aud bccaus" his opinions in respect TO
the character and objects OF the Federal compact are
so well defined and dear to him, that the rights and
honor of the Old Dominion might be deemed Tiic III
his hands alone.
Our discomfort is over. aud a glorious victory awaits
