For the True Democrat MY DARLING'S DEAD.
BY MARY c. URMsToN.

Warm words of friendship fall upon my ear,
 A bamy southern sky bends OCT my head;
 Bright flowers arc springng up beneath my feet,
 hear them, see them not; my child is dead!
 Ny child. my little child, my only one,
 w. loved her oh SD well. she was so dear To us. No more shell cling around my neck, No more her ringing merry laugh I'll hear It looks like mock'ry for the sun to shine, And for the flowers to look So bright and gay; Why comes the birds to sing beside her grave, Is there no other place. sunbeams to play? My sunbeam's buried there; ye can not play Again among her rings of golden hair, You've lost your playmate, and the grave has barre Her gates and will not let you enter there She came to us one spring time with the flowers, dainty bud. just three short years ago, We took her t) our hearts with trembling joy, And hope o7lr sky did span with brightest bow. say it OCT and o'er, my darling's dead, My little bud has gone to be d flower, To bloom close hy the throne of God no more .To feel again sins blghtng scatling power And ttea feel this heavy weary pain, That's come to fill the place my darling left There is no joy or comfort in my heart, can but only feel am bereft
 The sunbeamS have grown weary of their search, And one by one did slowly all depart, And shadows thick are nestling round her grave And shadows thick are closing round my heart PoedhontaS. -fyIanSaS lS57

FRIENDSHIP.
BY GEO. J. SUMMER

B1 OEO J. OO II EhS. Two dew-drops fell one starlight hour Gently upon lovely flower; When stars began to fade away These two in beauty mingled lay. Two tears stood in a maiden's eye As lover breathed his farewell sigh; They trickled down her pallid cheek And met on lips that could not speak. Two wavelets dimpled on the sea Beneath winds wandering wild an1 free; Gentle zephyrs breathed OCT the main And mixed in one the floating twain. Two vapors fingered round the sky So spirit-like they could not die; Joined by eet.breath of morn, they roam In love to angels starry home. Two waterlilies just in bloom Shed, each to each, their sweet perfume; l' Two flowers upon one stem" they seem As they bend and kiss heath the stream. Two stars shone with pellucid light Wreathng in smiles the check of night; Loves breath passed o'er and mingled them To form the star of Bethlehem. Two sundered clouds implored the spheres To quench in music their sad tears; The light of meeting calmed their storm And made the rainbows lovely form. ohl friendship how dear is thy name, How pure and star like burns thy flame: As pure as the songs at even Which b wing saints send up to Heav en- Sweet and musical as the breeze Which floats mid the balm of the trees, It fingers softly round the heart When young life's purple blooms depart. Tris like the bright smile of the star Which beacons sweetly from afar, Cheering our hearts at close of day When mirth and joy have passed away. y6ile, -42abamG.

Died on the evening of the 7th inst, after snort illness, MARY ALICE, only child of H. D. and Fldella A. Lowe, aged years and months.
 In the death of this sprightly and interest ing child, an aching void has been created in that~ence happy circle which nothing earthly Can fill. To the distressed parents who fond Y looked forward to days of peace and hap piness,
 The scenes which once seemed all so bright Have like a vision flded.n
 ArtIess and engaging in her manners little Alice had not only wound herself around the hearts of her dotng parents, but hv the sweet ness of her disposition, together with her inno cent prattle, she unconsciousy entwined her. self around the hearts and affections of all who knew her. But possessed as she was of all those lovely traits, they served as naught to shield her from the relentless grasp of the grim monster Death. He came when least expect ed, and To- anguish, distress and misery fol. lowed in his dread footsteps
 Leaves have their time to fall,
 And flowers to wither at the north-wind,s hraotb And stars to Set-but all.
 Thou hast all seasons for thine own o deathn Although the fond parents have been called upon to yield up the most valuable of their earthly jewels yet they mourn not as those who refuse to be comforted In the brightan cipatlon of a glorious future, anxiously will they look forward to that ecstatc moment, when mortality shall put on immortality, and when quitting these frail tenements their dlaem bodied spirits shall joyfully hasten on seraphlc pinIons to

The Hog Market.
We copy the following from the Cincinnati Price Current:

We copy the following from the Cincinnati Price Current:
 The feeling in the market for hogs for Mo- vemoer delivery continues very unsettled, there Delng few buyers at any price, and several sellers. Some contracts have been made with Tn the last two weeks at S6 per cwt. net No- vember delivery, but we believe there are no buyers at this price now. The unsettled state and great uncertainty as regards the future of financial matters, deters the packers from ma king any contracts, and leads to disposition on their part to hold off for the purpose of be- ing able to witness unembarresSed the result of this financial crisis. The corn crop is now ma. tured and may not be considered the best in qua lity but the largest in quantity ever raised in the country, by say twenty-five per cent, and the indications are quite conclusive that it will rule, at extraordinary low prices, thus rendering the feeding of 1t to hogs, even though they should rule at S4 50 per cwt. net, the most pro- ftable disposition which can be made of it, and this must lead to a large supply of pork"
 The Louisville Courier of the 18th says:
 'The market for hogs for packing is flat in every respect, with no buyers at any price, and quotations will continue nominal for some time Without any idea of carrying down prices we will simply state our conviction that they must come down to a very low notch compared with the anticipation made early in the season.- Contracts were then entered into at 6I4, 615 /, o34 and even 7c. from the hooks. There are To buyers now at half that price. In addition to the scarcity of money, it is evident that the demand and consumption of pork next season will be less than usual while the product bids fir to be greater. We hear of the return to New York of about 10000 packages of box meat from Liverpool, portion of which was put up here for what was. called the English market. This will have to be converted into bacon for home consumption In addition to this the stopping of great number of manu- factories in the Eastern States has lessened the demand for provisions, and prices are steadily 1 receding

Circular to the Creditors and Stockholders and Bondholders of the Illinois Central Railroad Company

The directors of the Illinois Central Railroad Company are under the painful necessity of an- nounclng that notwithstanding the most strenu- ous eXertlons to avert such result, the con- pany IS forced to suspend payment.
 The existing Arrangement in the financial af- iarS oi the country surprised the company with a large floating debt incurred for the comple- ton and equipment of the road. To provide for its payment when the usual credits became unavailable, an assessment of $1O P share was rromply made, and upon this side of the A tan- JIG largely pald ln advance, enabling the com pahy to meet It's engagements in September- The lnstailments upon the stock held abroad have been in rapid progress of payment, but the negotiation of the bills of exchange drawn against them, difficult at first, has at length be- come impossible.
 All other usual modes of raising money are well known to be entirely unavailable. It would be in vain at this time to call in another lnstallment on the stock, as the same difficult ties which prevent the realizing of the proceeds ot the one already called, in season to meet the accrulnS obligations of the company, would at tach to any further assessment.
 The directors have, therefore, yielded to the stern necessity of the case reluctantly, but with clear conviction that the true interests of both creditors and stockholders would be promoted by the legal steps which, under the advice of able counsel, have bee taken to secure their re- Spective rights.
 The coupons due on the construction bonds. October lat have been paid to large extent and a provision has been made to receive the balance outstanding m payment of unpaid in- Stalmcnts II desired by the holder No seri- ous inconvenience will probably result there from
 All possible exertions will be used to pay off every liability without unnecessary delay, and to relieve the company from the present embar rassment.
 As this has not arisen from any difficulties intrinsic Tn the enterprise but from the extra ordinary condition of the money market, the directors see therein no cause to abate the con- tidence they had heretofore felt and expresse Tn the value of the road and the lands of the company.

UF As the train on the La Crosse railroad was coilihg east, and, when about a mile east o' orla, the engineer saw little boy on lne track. lie immediately whi,tled to
 ofake, ana reversed the engine but as it was on down grade, he soon found he could not stop the train, which, when the child was ;rst seen, was under full motion. The engineer stationed himself on the fore part of the loca motive, and watching his chance jumped ahead of the engine, snatching the boy from the track and thus saved his life. The train passed on some distance before it stopped. The name of the engineer is L. T. Meade, who deserves unqualified praise for his noble act There gre few men who possess the courage and the nerve to perform such feat.

OE5- A letter dated Fort Kearney, Septem Der 5th states that two companies of troop: arrived there on that day, en route to Salt Lake and that the 5th and the 10th regiments had reached Fort Laramie. Col Hoffman had sezed 500 kegs of gunpowder in Mormon train. Returning Cafornians informed the writer of the letter that the Mormons were making preparations for fight, and did not con. ceal their hostile movements. Elder Kim ball in a sermon which he delivered in the taberna cle at Salt Lake, had said he could, with his wives, whip the 2500 troops, and afterwards do good days work on his farm in the after noon. He further remarked that the provis. Ions for the army would reach the valley, but that the troops would never enter Salt Lake city.

0T Lieut.. Spencer, of the 2d United States infantry, performed an act of bravery during the trying times at Yellow Medicine, in July last, says the St. Paul Democrat, which ought to be recorded to his credit. He it was who was ordered to demand the Indian who stabbed the soldier With few men and his interpreter he proceeded to the Indian camp, and upon see ing them assume an attitude of offence he or dered his men, as an evidence of his pacific in- tention, to halt, while he and his interpreter rode to the Indians. Two hundred guns were evelied at him in support of threats, which his companion undertook to disregard. The Lieutenat called him to his side, gave him his pistol for his reassurance, jumped of his horse when within speaking distance, and, unarmed and alone, breasted the savage multitude and fulfilled his duty.
