White Cloud Kansas chief. [volume] (White Cloud, Kan.) 1857-1872, 1858-06-03

A SENATOR ELECTED By LoYE-LETTER-In
certain town in this State, says the Providence
(R. L. Journal, letter arrived for young la
dy from her lover, on the day Of the election.
The Postmaster, as is not unfrequent in the ru-
raj districts, knowing the eageness with which
a message of that tender character would be ex-
pected, took upon himself the pleasing duty of
delivering it; but first, like a good Democrat,
he must vote, and of course in separate self
sealing envelope. This was duly prepared,
with the Democratic ticket safely inclosed, and
the gluten stuck together. Stopping at the town
meeting, he deposited the letter in the ballot
box, and proceeded with the separate and self
sealed to the house Of the blooming maiden, to
whom he gallantIy handed the entire Democrat
ic ticket, State and town. How the lady inter
preted the missive we do not know, but the
Moderator and Clerk ungallantly refused to
count the love-letter, and the Republican can
didate was declared elected by one majority.

SVAAUSiCA1ED-
THE POETS OF CLARKE COUNTY.
/ My poor little goose quill up take,
! To see if | can't some verses make,
To grace the columns OF the Gazette
Clarke Poets We ken, are hopeful set.
Dur old Pegasus is ridden hard,
Mounted BY many hapless bard.
His weary bones I'm sure must ache;
He's being used up and no mistake.
| fear forsooth. we'll kill him quite,
Il from his back we don't alight.
Oh! Poets spare-in mercy spare MIN,
GIVE him some little time to breathe IN.
Don't kill the nag outright-for shame
Throw by your quills-for he's quite lame.
Not that your verses are not most sweet,
| them most fondly always greet.
Old Clarke-bles land of rhy me and song,
Oh! may you boast OF poets long.
Oh! Poets may you ever find
The old Gazette so wondrous kind.
IL prints my verses without a sou,
May ask ii, us lne case WIN you.
In which event, as We muster strong,
We surely should ere very long,
Our thrilling bards to a meeting call,
And on some happy plan then fall,
To express our gratitude sincere,
To the old Gazette for kindness dear,
And a token of our love be sent,
In tangible ioIm-our thanks present.
Meantime-our gallant steed must rest,
And not be sorely so distressed,
BY rider ever on his back,
And the whip laid on with angry smack.
Dsar old Gazette, your sheet l unfold
With pleasure that can ne'er be told.
hail thee as good old friend,
With thee my thoughts of youth blend,
| love thee much-will more and more,
Until the turmoil Of life is DER!
