The State Elections.

State Elections are held on Tuesday next Oc- tober 9th, in Pennsylvania, Ohio and Indiana. The result will be looked for with great interest by all as foreshadowing the result of the great Presidential election, of which we are on the eve. Pennsylvania chooses on next Tuesday Governor, and Legislature and her full repressn- tation in the next Congress. Indiana Cover nor, Legislature, State officers and Congressmen, and Ohio Judge of the Supreme Court, Attor- ney General, and member of the Board of Public Works
 In Ohio the republicans will undoubtedly triumph by a large majority. In Pennsylvania advices favor the election of CURTIN the repub- lican candidate for Governor over the combined forces of Douglasites, Breckenridgers and Bell Everetters. In Indiana, where all the adverse forces are also combined against the republican nominee, Col. Henry s. Lane stands now the best chance for triumphant election.
 But even should the two latter states go " fu- sion" in this contest for State officers, after their State elections the fusion" will all be dissolved i to it's native elements-and the states of Penn- sylvania and Indiana, will still be prepared to give good account of themselves in the great national election which is to follow.
 Indeed the signs of the times all point one way, and that to the triumphant choice, by large national majority, of HONEST OLD ABE OF THE WEST to their Presidential chair; and once elected, we shall have the pleasure of beholding with what graciousness the fiery Keits & Co.'S of the saamander districts will fall into bustlng op positon but an opposition "within the Union, and not out of it."

where Christ miraculously healed lame
man. After reading it, he proceeded to in
woke, III an earnest prayer, some similar inter
ventiOn in his own behalf, and then feeling
greatly cheered and supported by trust in the
Divine benefcence, he again retired to
rest and soon fell asleep. During the
night he dreamed that Christ came to
him accompanied by surgeon, the same on
whom he had called during the day The
surgeon examined his hip and told him it
could be relieved, but only by an operation.
To this he raised some objection desiring it
postponed, but the surgeon seemed suddenly
to seize and overpower him, and with some
instrument laid open his hip to the bone, and
arranged the joint in its place. During the
operation he had the impression of suffering
severe physical pain, as if really under the
knife of a surgeon. After it, he had no fur.
ther remembrance of anything until morning.
Upon rising, he found to his utter astonisl.
ment, not only that his short leg was length
ened out so as to be even with the other, and
his hip all right, but that he could walk with.
out limping or inconvenience. He walked
about the room several times, then put on his
clothes and ran up and down stairs to assure
himself that he was awake and no longer
lame man, but sound and whole His 10Y and
gratitude cannot well be described He imme-
diately discarded the boot with the false sole,
which had hitherto been a necessity, and put
on pair which were mates. His leg was still
weak, yet, though limping slightly from long
habit, he could walk as straight as any other
man when he chose. 1t has since grown
stronger, and his general health very mate
rally improved He, of course, considers
the cure direct answer to his supplica-

And shout at his Harvest Home.

The Sword of CaStruccio Castrucani.
'Questa per me Victor Emanuel.
BY ELIZABETH BARRETT BROWNING.
When Victor Emanuel the King
Went down to his Lucca that day,
The people, each Wanting the thing
As he gave it, gave all things away
In burst of fierce gratitude, say,
AS they tore out their hearts for the King.
Gave the green forest-walk on the wall,
With the Appenine blue through the trees;
Gave palaces, churches, and all
The great pictures which burn out of these;
But the eyes of the King seemed to freeze
AS he glanced upon ceiling and wall.
"Good, said the King as he past
Was he cold to the arts? or else coy
To possession! or crossed at the last,
TaPegd soR R BY 1d as of s in R sqS 12y
Good, said the King as he past.
He, travelling the whole day through flowers
And protesting amenities, found,
AT PistOla, betwiXt the two showers
OF red roses, 'the Orphans renowned
As the heirs of Puccinil who wound
With sword through the crowd and the flowers
otis the sword of Castruccio, King!
In old strife of intestinal hate
Very famous. Accept what we bring
We, who cannot be sons by our fate,
Rendered citizens by thee of late
And endowed with country and King.

(Which once made in an ignorant feud
Many orphans) remain in our ward
Till some patriot its pure civil blood
Wipe away in the foes and make good
In delivering the land by the swordn
VII.
Then the King exclaimed "This is for men
And he dashed out his sword on the hilt,
While his blue eye shot fire openly
And his heart overlooked till it split
hot prayer,-"God, the rest as thou wilt!
But grant me this!-ths is for nlei"
VIII
o Victor Emanuel the King,
The sword be for thee, and the deed,
And nought for the alien, next spring,
Nought for Hapsburg and Bourbon agreed;
But for us, great Italy freed,
With hero to head us, our King!
