on Ohio soil---a luls more Union--Bun-

IA Union tina. none may sever--a Union
of lakes aud Union Of lands--tho CELL J.
orious Union for ever! /!

men in knee breeohes, with enormou,
calves, sitting around an empty table,
probably waiting for some OF 3utler's
lip-top Boston crackers. Sterne ChiIien'
den had the following beautiful sentiment
spread to the breeze, upon a liberal allow
anoe Of white shoeting: Tennessee
Kentucky aud Ohlo--they will fall as
suuder when the Ohio and the Mississippi
roll their waters apart" At night the
illumination was general. The dome o
