DOUGLAS AND THE WASHINGTON UNION.
The Washington Union and Senator Dou-
glas are compimentng each other in the
most vigorous biingsgate, and manage 10
tell each other very many dsagreeabe truths.
Here is a specimen of how the Senator re-
plies to the Union:
"ThiS man, Wendell, and his hirelings,
'ohose object is 10 flch money fran the public
treasury by their lobby operations, are at
tempting TO control the politics of Illinois
with the view of securing :he election of
men who will act in harmony with them in
their peculatons to the exclusion of the De-
mocra;ic party. Follow the lead of the
Washington Union, and the corrupt gang
who control it, and you will rend the Demo
cratic party asunder, and no; only break
down those against whom its denunciations
are hurled, but disgrace the Administration
which it processes to support, whilst it GOV
ertly makes war upon the leading declara-
tions and accommodations of the President
and his Cabinet. | have never noticed the
Washington Union before, because hare
had such loathing, such contempt, such disgust
for he corruption that hangs around il, and
The corrupt purposes for 'ohich its columns
are used by The men who control it, that
did not wish to trust myself in an expression
of my opinion in relation to it before an au-
dience."

pies against paying at all. This last class,
unfortunately, is large one, aud its members
are scattered all over the country. What an

Nearly four years ago the Minnesota Weekly
Times came before the public, and from that
Period to the present it has been battling for
the cause of freedom and the rights of man,
regardless of the ties of party or the sneers and
| ibes Of partizan leaders. By pursuing a con-
sistent and straightforward career, by persist
cnt devotion to principles, it has won its way
to public favor, and notwithstanding it is the
youngest Of the city press, it has attained a
very large and rapidly increasing circulation.
This has been accomplished, not by a system
of self-laudation, but by the spontaneous pat
ronage of its friends throughout Minnesota and
the Eastern States.
The Times has ever advocated. and will con-
tinue TO advocate, the cause OF the people, and
in doing so it has advocated the cause of the
great Republican party whose principles it has
warmly espoused and will defend to the best
of its ability. 1t never has and never will pam
der TO the vices of the vicious, and never finch
es from graphing with error W herever it exists.
It believes in AL honest utterance of the truth
in adhering to right, justice and temperance

LADIES STOCKINGS.

A clotkes-line III yonier garden
Goes wan ering among the trees,
And on it TWO very long stockings
Arc kicking tho evening breeze;
AMI q lot fancy dry goods,
g Whose nature | cannot divine,
Are wildly and merriIy tapping
About on the same old lie.
And very sly young lady
at the parlor window sews:
And | rather conclude if You tried it,
You'd find she'd fit into ''thcm hose"
She's only half length picture,
> Fore-shortened below the breast;
But the dry goods which dance on the
tight rope
Out yonder, just makes out the rest.
So dream-like, she seems, so gentle,
You'd think her too good tor earth;
And feel that holier spirit
Is banishing vulgar Inirih
To Its worldly home-b. Jingo.
What q flourish that muslin throws;
And Eow uneommouly taper
Those stockings go off at the toes!
Q eye. like the sky when It's bluest!
81. o hair! like the night without star
o muslin and hose! l can't help it
Yo still draw my thoughts over 'thar."
The Lady alone is substal tial,
The clothes but fancy ideal
Yet somehow or otber-confound it
I've mixed up the sham and the real.
0 love! you're the same CID sixpence
With the poet, the mpff,, or the brick ;
You go up with rush like rocket,
But come down at last like the stick !;
And yet love, though it be lofty or low
",
Platonic or flash, [ opino
That they all, like your dry goods and
stockings,
Belong TO the very same line!
