We're shaped the anchors cf thy hope'
Fear not each sudden sound and shock,

In spite Of rock and tempest's roar,
In spite Of false lights on the shore,
Sail on, nor fear to breast the sea!

Our hearts, cur hopes, our prayers, our tears
Our faith triumphant Ger our fears,

Republican 'Doins' at La Crosse,
BY BRICK PONIEROY.

This afternoon the Republicans arc
having glorious-s-s time. For seven
weeks they have been preparing for q
big demonstration and it came to-day
This morning was ushered in By sur
prise, the cooking of crows, and q gin
cocktail for several of the wide-awakes.-
at ten o'clock Kind Heaven sent rain
storm and several other republicans to
town, and we learn by q boy WHO has
been out all day trying to sell a peck
of apples, that they are here yet. Gov.
Seward is here. The mounting Bird"
is here. Sleeper is here. Abe Lincoln
is here.-Hamlin is here, Randall is
here. Greeley is here. Weed is here.
Booth and Daniels are here, Usher, Of
Onalaska, who made the speech in Chi
cago, is here, Chase is here. Banks is
here. Sumner, who went to Europe to
have piece of his backbone taken out,
turned and scraped, is here. Euery-
body is here The Republicans are
ratifying. Up at the Turner's Garden
all the speakers are speechifying. We
counted seventeen hundred thousand
men in the procession, which was over a
Thousand miles long, who will vote this
year for Lincoln. Last year they voted
for Douglas Upwards of twenty mil
lion of people are now in the Garden,
listening to the talking. Nine hundred
guns were fired for Lincoln, and they
intend to fire another one next week {!
Randall is speaking in ten different Ian
guages, while Washburn is taking it all
down in back-hand! Booth is telling
the particulars of his rape, and Lincoln
is adding up the rails he split 4!
Delegations from the country are
coming in! One delegation from Ban
gor had a pole in a wagon seven hun
dred feet high, on which was a likeness
of Old Abe embroidered in sheep p-skin.
Over $4,000 voters came in from
Bangor, drawn by twenty wagons at
tached to each horse. Fifty bands
were in attendance from each town, and
from Neshonoc there are sixty thousand
mothers, with children at the bosom,
each one crying for Old Abe! Over
four thousand towns in this county are
now represented, and two more towns
will be in tomorrow if the weather don't

Douglas and Lincoln, A Comparison

The Republican papers sneer at
Douglas because, despite his speeches
in Maine, he has only succeeded in re-
ducing the Fremont majorities of 1856
by one half Well, we are to have a
second push at the Republicans in No
vember, and if we make an equal gain
chen, the Democracy will carry the
State.
Last spring, Lincoln went to Rhode
Island to electioncer for the Repubh-
cans, took the stump and made several
speeches. Fremont's majority in 1856
had been 4,7s7, nearly two to one for
the Republicans. Lincoln spoke for
Paddleford and against Sprague; yet
the latter beat the former by 1850.
In one sense Lincoln surpassed Doug
.as-the latter only reduced the Re
publican majority one half-the former
wiped It out, and put it 1,460 below
Zero.-Albaay Arsus.
