Ye sounds that come across the ieas, And up the hills that climb to me, Chewing the purple silences
 That deepen over land and sea Fe sounds of bells of silver swung
 In sacred turrets iyied and gray, Ne sounds of solemn anthems sung,
 Amidst the valleys far away Ys are most sweet to other ears,
 But very, very, sad to mine Nc come like ghosts from sepalchres, Drunken with sorrow as with wine: Fe come forlornly wandering,
 Lost echoes of an age of gold, yhsn she was queen and was king, That was but in the dreams of old.

Blows AND THKEkTs.-After the ad-
journment of the Anti-Lecompton Con-
vention at Sacramento on Friday even
ing last, James w. Coffroth, chagrined
at his defeat for Congressional nomina
lion. went into Restaurant where Hon,
Joseph G. McKibben was esting and
began to abuse the Convention. He
said every member of the body had n
Broderick collar on with large B. en-
graved on it. or words of like import
Mex bben told him he could not use
such language in his presence. Cof-
froth repeated it, and added other abu-
sivc language which McKibben put an
end to by blow in the mouth. The
parties were separated by friends. The
same evening challenge was sent by
Coffroth and accepted by McKibben.
The meeting was arranged to come of
in Suffer county, and pistols agreed up
on. The parties were arrested and
bound 10 keep the peace under heavy
bonds.

0REGoN.-A correspondent Of one of
our exchanges, writing from Portland.
says
Lane and Smith have taken the stump
in favor of Stout, the Democratic nom
inee. Fhe5 intend to stump every
county in the State. Notwithstanding
this, it is my candid opinion he will be
beaten. The fact of his being Calf
fornian. and an ex-member Of the Lane
party, are enough to work his political
defeat in Oregon. 50 deeply and inerad-
ically seated are the prejuidices of our
people. But when you add TO this the
desire of General lanes enemies to
break in upon his prestige, and pave the
the way tor his downfall in 1860, by de-
feating Stout now, think there can be
very little doubt but that he will be dis
'anced by his Republican competitor,
Logan. There is a thorough under
standing if not bargain between Lane 5
enemies and the Republicans i they are
to act in concert nceforth--irst to de-
feat Stout, and in 1860 to defeat Lane
and Smith, and elect Republican and
an anti Lane sorehead to the Senate OF
the United States. They have already
entered upon the work to that end.

MoNEY VERSUS HUsBANDs.-AI Icor
respondent of a Worcester papee relates
the following incident 't' a4
Just as the train was about starting
for Greenfield on Friday morning, on the
Vermont and Massac husetts railroad, a
sprightly little woman with child, took
seat in the car nearwhere l was sitting.
The cars were beginning to move and
the little woman looked anxionsly thro'
the end window of the rear cal, for her
missing husband. who was in the depot
attending to the purchase of tickets &c.
The speed of the car increased, and the
woman looked more anxious. The hus.
band now appears, and commences to
run. He gains on the cars at first, but
they are too far ahead of him, and are
soon are leaving him behind. although
he .'did run well for a season." 1t is now
the wife's turn to try what she can do.
In agony she implores the conductor
that her husband is left, but he can't
help that. "I'm starting on a journey,
and can't get along without my husband.
Then let him attend to his business next
time, was the cold answer, 'But,"
says the keen Yankee woman, II have
40 money with me-" The brakes were
applied the cars brought to stand
still, and the painting husband enters the
cars to the delight of all the passengers
especially Of his wife. Moral-money
