For the Jersey Bluesl
Michigan, wiscon-
sIn--a Clean sweep for Congress-

We are overjoyed to be able to announce
complete and overwhelming victories for the
Republicans in the States OF New York,
Massachusetts,. New Jersey and Michigan.
We learn from the dispatches in the st.
Louis papers received last evening that the
Republicans have elected Morgan Governor
by ten thousand majority, and that the oppo-
siton have elected % members of Congress
and the Democrats but s..
The opposition have carried the entire DEL
egations in Congress from New Jersey, Mas
sachuse,ts, Michigan and Wisconsin.
The Democrats have carried Delaware with
her one member by decided majority, and
Illinois is close and doubtful.
That will do for one days Growing.

HOME

Home! We love to repeat the
word over, for it has sweet sound
Home
The man or woman possessed of a
home, in the fullest sense of that
beautiful word, need go no further
than its sacred hearth for happiness.
Within its walls there is enough, with
out going forth after vain and idle
pleasures Around the iircside of
home cluster purcr joys than wealth
can shower from her golden hands, or
clarlon-tongucd Fame bring from the
far-oif rccesses Of the world.
The broad universe holds no nook
or corner SO dear to the true heart as
home.
People may smile and say it is an
old subject; very true, but it is one
that will never wear ont. Like the
grand notes Of "Old Hundred" the
sacred tones of /" Montgomery" or the
inspiring roll of Coronation" the
subject OF home grows nearer and
dcarcr to the heart with each rcpeti-
ton The truth Of this all will ac-
knowledge, so long as each spirit
finds at home its purest happiness,
and folds its wings quietly there in
sunshine of perfect peace.
Home How the tired heart of the
wandcrcr leaps up at the word ! The
storm-beatcn mariner nearing the
shores of his native land, his first
thought, lightning winged, is for home.
Home, where his wife waits with her
fair-haircd children, and keeps bright
the light upon the hcarth-stonc, the
light which is to guide his way
over the surf-washcd beach, and the
trcachcrous quicksands, safely to his
home. May be he looks forward to a
reunion with his aged parents, white
haired and hoary, standing upon the
confines of the Eternal Land the kind
father, and the tender mother who re-
moved all the thorns from his infant
pathway, and led his tender feet up
the wide temple Of manhood.
The brown-haircd girl at school,
looks out for vacation with u world OF
blissful anticipation you ask her why
this JOY ; you learn she is going home
homo to Father, and Mother, and the
bluc-eyed brother Charlie. and the
dear flowers and pets which, from
childhood up, she has gathered there
The man of business, cooped W
from sunrise to sunset in his dusty
counting-room. closes the ledger with
slam, whistles a merry tune, throws
on his wraps briskly, and with re
juvenated air steps into the street
Why is it? He is going home home
to his waiting wife, his warm dressing
gown and slippers by the parlor fire
and the evening of contentmcnt an,
rest which he knows is awaiting hin
there. What matters it how loudl,
the storm beats, or the gusty vim
raves is he not at home, and wit

Sleep ON, sleep on above thy corsc
m Inc winds their Sabbath keep;
lhc waves are round thee, and thy breast
licavcs with the hcdying deep
or thee mild eve her beauty filings,
And there the white gull lifts her wing,
And the blue halcyon loves to lave
Her plumage in the deep blue wave.
Sleep on no willow ser thee bends
With melancholy air:
No violet springs, nor dcwy rose
Its soul OF love lays bare
But there the sea flower, bright and younr
Is sweetly o or thy slumbcrs flung
And like weeping mourncr fur,
The pale flag hangs its trcsscs there.
Sleep on, sleep on the glittcring depths
OF Ocean : coral waves
Are thy bright urn--thy requiem
The music Of the waves;
The purple gems forever burn
In tpdelcss beauty round thy urn,
And pure and deep us infant love,
The blue sea rolls its way above.
Sleep on the fearful wrath
pf mingling cloud and deep.
May leave its wild stormy track
Above the playc of sleep;
But when the wave is sunk 10 rest,
And now, twill murmur Ger thy breast,
And the bright visions OF the sc;t
Pcrchance will make their home with thee
Sleep on thy course is far away,
But love bewails thee yet
For thee the great wrung sigh is brcathcd,
And lovely eyes are wet
And she the young and bcauteous bride,
And oft she turns 10 view with tears,
And oft she turns to view with tears,
The Eden of departed years.
