Water Music.

Twas in summer-glorious summer
Far beyond the smoky town.
Weary with long days ramble
Through the fern and blooming bramble,
Needing rest | sat me down.
Bcetling erags hung high above me,
Ever looking graudly rude;
Still there was some trace of mlduess
In this scene so weird-its wildness
Might be sought for solitude.
Birds and flowers, songs and beauty,
Seemed its rugged realm to fill;
That which was my souls entrancing
Was the music and the glancjng
or rock-born plashing rill.
Lingering there was delighted.
Musing on the day gone by,
tching its bright spray pearls sprnkled,
silver tone that tinklcd
'Twh'd some chord of memory.
Nou, ,ntu r. sweet spirit voices

Strange that sounds should find
Where cen mystery ensconces--
In the corridors OF thought
Then emotions were awakened,
Making my heart wildly thrill,
As fingered there and listened,
While the dew around me glistened
To the music of the rill.

A MODEL PoUTTCIAN.-Governor Weller said
in a speech at Columbia, that if he thought
Douglas had got two-thirds majority at Balti-
more he would support him" Twenty one votes
would have made him a good Douglas man,
without regard to principles AS he did not get
them he (Weller) thinks it best to support
Breckinrdge, who was still further from receiv-
ing two-thirds vote This comes very we'll
from man who acknowledges he voted for a
gambler of thirty years standing sooner than
scratch that sacred thing-a Democrotic ticket.

UNINTENTIoNAL AND UNCoMPLTMENTARY.-
forgo: in our last issue to say that at the Douglas
mass meeting on Saturday night week, the en-
thusasm was spiced with good joke at the ex-
pense of a very conspicuous and Jealous Demo
crat. While Judge Pitzer was speaking, and
just at the turn of one of those sarcastic periods
when he had dared his powerful lance into the
tall and powerful figure of I" Old Abe" this en-
thusiastic Democrat thought it remark worthy
of applause, and roared out at the highest pitch
of his voice. The speaker apprehending that the
effort was intended in ridicule, without knowing
who the author was, addressed himself at once
to the author of the seemingly harsh and fun
making effort in the following style: "When
did that animal escape from the corral? There
is a stall down in the stable which would become
him better than q place in this meeting!" The
patriotic recipient of the untoward compliment
wilted, and ever since has been careful when and
how to applaud. OF course the remark was un-
intentional, and regretted by the speaker.

THE Pass AND DEAD IIEADs.-Railroads stage
coaches and steamboats,, complain OF dead head
ING, that is to say, Of preachers, editors and
brethren OF the craft, riding so much without
pay. The newspaper press endures more OF this
dead heading than all three of these modes OF
conveyance combined. The Pulpit, the Bar, and
the Theatre corporations legislative assemblies,
societies religious, benevolent, agricultural, mer-
camille establishments, vendors OF quack medi-
cines, railroad companies, STEAMBOATS,, stage lines
and every variety of individuals including
political parties and politicians, draw largely
upon the lbcralty Of the press. The press Is
eypected to yield to all these interests, it is
required to give strength to all weak institutions
and enterprises I; it is asked to puff small preach
ers into overshadowing pulpit orators, to puff
small politicians and unprlncipled demag0gues
into great men and patriots to magnify incom
petent railroad officers into railroad kings 1t is

word, of the newspaper press, that 1t become all

There is no interest on the face of this green
earth that is expected to give as much to society
without pay or thanks, as the newspaper press OF
the country. The little souled man who inserts

/" Arnold, the Traitor ~

There was day when Talleyrand arrived in
lIavre on foot from Paris, 1t was the darkest
hour of the Revolution, pursued by the blood
hounds OF the Reign Of Terror, stripped of every
wreck of property, Talleyrand secured passage
to America in ship about to sail, lie was n
bcggar and wanderer to n strange land, to earn
his daily bread by daily labor.
els there any American stopping at your
house ?" he asked the landlord of the hotel. 81
am bouud to cross the water and would like n
letter to person Of influence in the New World
Tue landlord hesitated moment, and then
replied
"There is gentleman up stairs either from
America or Britain, but whether from America
or England cannot tell"
lie pointed the way, and Taleyraud who IN
his life, was bishop, prince, minister ascended
the stairs u miserable suppliant stood before the
strangers door, knocked and entered.
In the far corner Of the dimly lighted room sat
n man of some fifty years, his arms folded, and
his head bowed upon his breast. From window
directly opposite u food of light poured upon
his forehead. His eyes looked from beneath tho
downcast brows, aud upon Taleyrand S face with
a pccular and searching expression. His face
was striking in outline the mouth and chin n-
dicative of an iron will. Ills form, vigorous
even with the SHOWS of fifty was clad III q dark,
but rich and distinguished costume.
TaIcyrand advanced stated that he was q Iu'
gitive-and the impression that the gentlemah
before him was an American, solicited his kind
feeling and Offices.
lie poured forth his history in eloquent French
and broken English.
II am a wandercr and an exile. | am forced
to fly to the New World without friend or home.
You are an American. Give me- then beseech
you, a letter of yours, so that may be able to
earn my bread. | am willing TO toll III any man
ner-a life Of labor would be Il paradise to II ca
rcer of luxury in France. You will give me II
letter to one of your friends? A gentleman like
you doubtless has many friends"
The strange gentleman arose. with look
that Talleyrand never forgot, he retreated toward
the door of the next chamber, his eyes looking
still from beneath his darkened brow.
lie spoke as he retreated backwards-hs voice
was full of meaning
." am the only man Of the New World who
can raise his hand to God aud say ! have not u
friend not onc-in all America"
Taleyrand never forgot the overwhelming
sadness OF the look which accompanied these
words.
"Who are you ?" be cried, as the strange man
retreated to the next room your name ~
"My namc," he REPLIED with a smile that had
more of mockery than JOY in its convusiye eX'
preston, &" my name Is Benedict Arnold"
lie was gone Taleyrand sank in the chair
gasping the words:
Arnold the traitor!'
Thus he wandered over the earth, another
Cain, with the wanderers mari. upon his brow.

DOUGLAS CONVENTION IN SnAsrA.-ln report
of the Douglas County Convention held III Shasta
on the goth ut., the Herata says:
Everything passed off smoothly until the
reception OF two reports, from Il Committee on
the Order of Proceedings. The majority report
recommended sending eight delegates to the Ju-
dicial Conventions As this was understood to
involve the contest between Messrs. Garter and
Daingerield, hand to hand fight was waged for
about an hour the rejection of the report.
When the vote was called great confusion ens1ed
few being able to understand the question before
the house. The vote stood on rejecting the mi
nority rcport-ayes, AZ noes, 45. vote was
then changed to tho noes, thereby standing 10 to
l6, by which the motion would be lost. vote
was then changed from no to aye, again reversing
the position of things. As last resort another
square vote was taken, resulting in The melton
being carried by an increased vote OF 90 to so.
A Garter delegation was then elected TO the DIS
trict Convention Messrs. Spraghe, Skillman,
Ball, Garter, Meagher. Garden, ShurtleH ana
Nichols were elected delegates to the State Con-
vention, and were instructed to vote for s. ii.
Dosh, for Elector."
The Assemblyman elect-John White-as we'll
as the other candidates, was required to pledge
himself not to aid in the re election of Gwn, or
the passage of the Bulkhead BILL
