And each enchanting grace,
On cloud, on stream, on forest,
And mountain TOP trace; ~

All radiant ~ tho gardens.
Ia the cnchastcd land
Waving OH ils haunting banners,
Fair the landscape beams,

In the fairy.land Of dreams.
Dropping fruits from laden orchards
stain will ripon'd wealth the grounds
All the woods around are vocal
With the children's 10, Gus sound;
Reapers In tho harvest fields
bind the rustling shoavos Of graini
And the golden Indian corn
Heaps the loaded vain.
Now the eidcr-press lie nectar
Poureth In constant tide,
Now the purple grapes are gathei'd,
by the rushing river's side,
Prom the dusty threshlng door
Bounds loud tho busy aaiI,
And the moonlight pIghis are joyous
With the dance and tale.

Thy harvest moons AZ night

There's no such happy time,
As when the gny autumnal days

The above paper has recently changed
hands, and under the new management
will be conducted rs an Opposition paper
claiming the patronage of all opposed TO the
present Administration in this section of
country. An exciting political contest is
drawing near, and it is necessary for every
voter to keep posted on the various topics
of the day. This cannot he done unless
they subscribe for newspapers that may be
relied on to give the latest news and n large
quantity of matter.
In the first place, we advise ali to take
their own county papers. This is prime
duty of every citizen. Then, if they con-
clude to further patronize the printers, we
offer for their consideration the " old, re-
liable" EDanscHle Journal, that has been
published here twenty-siX years.
We intend to make the Journal an inter-
esting and instructive Family Piper, by pub
fishing such Literary and Miscellaneous
matter rs may be adapted to that end.
Business Affairs shall receive particular
attention. We are now publishing regular
| Market Reports both for this and other points
that may be relied on as correct.
Ia regard to the Latest Nears, we are de
termined TO be ahead of all competition in

lished by us, and in addition, we keep a

are invariably cash IN d;tDaRce. In return,
