To g. ". d
The morn that smiled upon thy birth,
Was crowned with peace snd joy;
Loves fondest hopes found form and life,
In thea darling boy.
The tint Of health glowed on thy cheek;
mothers lips there pressed,
Andbreathed low and ferYent prayer,
For happiness and rest
She little dreamed the tiny plant,
Transmitted to her care,
Had felt the spoilers midew-breath--
That Death, lay lingering there:
The hidden blossom to unfold;
The mind Alright to guide,
And grace her little one to lead
To Christ, the crucifedi-
(ohI holy trustD for these she prsyedt
But scarce the task begun;
When lol God sent an angel down,
To watt her spirit home.
And thou vert leftl her treasured one,
Amid this vale of tears;
No mothers love, nor fond caress,
To calm thy childish fears.
Butyouth-fhy sorroving youth has flown;
And manhood's signet now
Is besming pure and glorious.
Upon thy thoughtful brow.
But yet within thy manly breast
hidden fountain lies,
OF thought and feeling all untold
ofHope that never dies.
The mystic scroll is thine, lone onel
III not its leaves unfold;
I'd sigh to find upon its page
a The world is growing cold"
Thy 'heart has grown too sensitiEei
The pains of life to bear;"
It beats to music-but it beats,
Beneath deep despair.
Could it but ''meet the love It paints;"
The love for which 1t pines,
So much of Heaven is in the faith,
That thy pure heart enshrinesI
But if thy song is sadder now;
Its cheerfulness less gay;
II breathes of hopes beyond the tomb
0fnever ending dayl
A bright gentle beacOn-lght,
Beams on thee from afar,
On thee alone, nor eversets,
To thee that guiding star.
Shine oni and with diviner light,
Thy loved ones pathway cheer;
Twill more than mortals prayer avail
Aye, more than mortal's tear.
And thoul celestial breezesi blow,
And cool his burning brow;
Unbind the spell from sorrows heart
It hath enough, cen nowi
Obi softly, gently burn>the lamp,
That wsstetb manhood's might
And may long-lost mothers eye,
Give back its holy light. N.s.R

STATE HOUSE.

The examination into the history of the
new state house, will give some insight into
the manner in which the last prO-slavery
offce-holders have squandered the money
of the people. According to the last report
of the democratic state house commission
ers, on the 18th day of November 1855,
the following appropriations had been made
and exDended IN the state house.

TAXES
And state Expenditureg

On Tuesday evening Sept. 9th, Hon. R.
P. BUcKLAED, by request, addressed the
Republican Club of Fremont, on the subject
above named. His address was, in sub
stance, as follows:
It is understood by the leaders of the
pro-slavery- Buchanan party, that unless they
can succeed in diverting the minds of the
people from the real issue, about to be de-
cided by the election of Fremont or Bu-
chanan to the Presidency, they stand no
chance of electing their candidate, or of car
rying even one free state for him. They
know, full well, that vast majority of the
voters in every free state are opposed to the
further extension of slavery, and believe that
congress has the power to restrict it within
its present limits, and that the power ought
to be exercised, as it has been heretofore
recognized from the formation Of the govern
ment to the coming in of the present ad-
ministration. Shall slavery be restricted
within its present limits, or shall it be IN
definitely extended by fraud, by force Of
arms, pillage, murder and other Infamous
crimes, into Territory heretofore cousecrated
to freedom by solemn compact, and contin-
ue to be the ruling element in the govern
ment of this great republic? This is the
question, and the only question Of any i'm
portance to be decided at this election
The leaders of the Buchanan party know
this, and they know, too, that if the people
are permitted to vote upon that issue alone,
they will give an emphatic decision in favor
of Freedom by the triumphant election of
Fremont. Hence, they are resorting to the
basest means to deceive the people. They
invent and circulate in their newspapers,
and their orators proclaim upon the stump,
the vilest ISLANDERS against the private char
acter of every active republican, from John
C. Fremont, down to the humblest citizen
who dares to raise his voice in favor offree-
dom. Their stumpers in this county have
made it their principal point to misrepre-
sent the action of the republicans of the
Legislature at the session of last winter; and
among them is one member of the legisla-
ture, who certainly ought to know, if he
does not, that many of the statements made
by himself and Others, are not true. Ihave
not yet heard Of their making one true state
ment in regard to the legislation of last
winter, but their many false statements can
hardly be referred to in one evening. 1
will only comment at present upon some of
the most prominent points:

EXPENSES OF THE GENERAL
ASSEMBLY.

1t is charged that the expenses of the
Legislature at the last session were much
greater than those of the pro-slavery, or
democratic Legislature of 1854, and to prove
this, sometimes they read from the laws of
1854, page IS, making appropriations in
part for that year, where $4,000 are ap-
propriated for the expenses of the general
assembly. Then they read the appropria-

A HYMN FOR THE HOUR
BY ELIZABETH G. BARBER,

BY ELIZABETH q. BARBER.
Brslars,. pray for rs."-sr PAUL.
Ye who are wont 10 call Gods believing,
His word is His promise is vain.
We whose untiring faith is still receiving
The welcome answer TO your souls again.
Pray that the threatening clouds which darken DER
May only " break in blessings DER our he sdss
And that the sunlight dim before us,
May gid the stormy path which Freedom treads
Pray for the Patriot, who, Freedoms altar,
noble sacrifice, his blood has shed.
Pray that his courage may not faint faer,
But that, with wresths immortal round his head,
He may come forth again, new strength be given,
To speak the glowing words of Truth with power;
He may stand forth, with oracles from heaven,
The star-crowned seer, to hail the ,riumph-honr
Pray that his blood that patriot blood may nourish
The struggling plants of courage through the land,
As in the old time il TO flourish,
When persecution scathed the martyr band.
Or, living, may his noble voice be swelling
The joyous chorus, mailing Liberty;
When the great cry goes up from every dwelling,
" Rejoice! rejoice! al last our land is free.n
Pray for the few, who, with a faith unweary
Have suffered, toied, and battled for the Right;
Pray that their watch through shadows deep dreary
Is DER AT last, for morning crowns the night.
May rise in hosts, 10 cheer that little band;
And with a noble zeal and ardor burning
May dare in Freedoms foremost ranks 10 stand.
And pray for those who, distant borders
Our brohe r., far on Kansas battlefield
Meet rufian might, and brave the fierce marauders;
Pray that Gods arm may be their guard and shield,
That far away from home, with naugh 10 cheer Them
Save the high purpose, not yet undismayed;
Pray that His presence may be near lhem
A wall of ERE when vain seems human aid
Pray that some voice of sweetest inspiration,
AS of has sung amid the old worlds strife,
Shall lift its tones of glad anticipation,
And sing for US the noblest songs of life.
And though no more those clarion tones ringing
Through distant lands they have sung in vain;
Ger the Atlantic float their echoes bringing
A chorus deep 10 freedoms hottest strain.
And pray that those who only have to offer
For Liberty lives than their more dear
Wife, mother. sister, daughter-yet may proher
With these, all words of sympathy and cheer.
Gods word is true what though the world be shaken,
And martyr blood may yet be shed like rain;
With Freedoms chorus shall the earth awaken,
To know al last His promise is moi vain.

6od bless thee, Tennyson! thy mournful song,
Like music of deep waters, sweet but sad,
Doth-toothe the heart bereaved, and reconcile
Unto its earthly heritage of woe.
How well hast thou portrayed the many moods
The endless phases of lifelong gnef,
From IFS first transports till the stunning shock
OF unrehecive sorrow leaves the heart
To realize its mighty loss, and Time,
AS though in pity ofits keener pangs.
DON heal the wound, yet leave ghastly scar!
FIRST OF all poets.+ meaner minds may try
To iraitate the beauties of thy verse;
Bni here are thoughts, fantastic, light as air,
Whose meaning may depend upon word,
Or t.rning of a phrase, TO understand
Fan3es ethereal, whose sense is lost
FIN, sier minds show not their subtle charm,
And like thee, chain in beauteous song
The airy forms and dreams OF poesie.
fho.t stand'st alone among our modern bards:
The 3hrong that comet like, rush into light
Are Shinlng in a borrowed CLEAN of thee.
Thodgh may never see thy face in life,
And lands divide and seas between us roll,
We, are we friends-we are akin in grief!
And myrIads will read thy book through time,

Some time in life all thou hast there expressed
And with thee mourn some Arthur loved and los,
