BuNlAL Of JOlNLho'
Not drum was heard, not a funeral note,
As his cOrso from the Convention we hurried
Aud Pngh discharged "liecnan len
O'er the grave where O martyr was buried.
We buried him softly. at dead " might
The sods with "platonn turning
BY the struggling moonbcsm's htlul light
And tho lantern dimly burning.
No useless coffin inclosed his breast,
Bot in "Nchraska Bill' We wound him
Aud hc lay like possum taking his rest,
With the cotton laying around him.
Pew and short were the prayers we said,
And VIC hrcathcd not word of affection
But we sicadfastly gaEcd on the firc Of the dead
And bitterly thought Of the election
We looked as we holoecd his narrow bed,
And thought VIC could then "diskNcr."
That the Black Republicans would tread or his head
And we far away up Salt River.
Lightly they'n talk N the spirit that's acd
Aud ocr his cold ashes upbraid him,
but little we care. if they lct him sleep un
Where "porular sovereignty has laid him.
But half Of our weary task was done
When the clock struck the hour flr retiring
And we heard the distant signal gun
That The Lincoln men were firing.
slcwly and sadly VIC laid him down.
From the field Of defeat fresh and CORY
And the Union refuses 10 raise stone
To tell Of his mighty glory.
And now. 70 the lords Of the sunny South,
We yield implicit suhiectnn
Aud hope that the martyr of Illinois
VIII never have resurrection.

The PLAINS or LoMBARDY THE BATTLE
GROUND OF NArIoNs.-lt is a melancholy
fact that she richest and fairest spots earth S
surface are also those where human blood has
been most frequently and lavishingly shed.
What waves Of invasion have suocessively
rolled over the fertile plains Of Persia and
Hindostan. the prolific valley Of the Nile, tho
fruitful provinces Of Asia Minor, Turkey and
Hungary What battles, what segcs, what
massacrcs, almost from the birth Of history,
have dronchod their soil with gore Anda-
lusia, too-the garden Of Spain-was for
eight centuries the battle ground Of Christian
and Moor, whose blood, according to the
Spanish historians, was poured forth in thirty
seven hundred battles.
But, perhaps, no country has been more
blessed by the gifts Of God, or more cursed
by the strife of man, than the wide and beau
tiul plains Of I.ombardy, guarded by Alp aud
Apponino, a very garden in fertility, watered
by inumerable streams, and with thousand
towns and villages gittoriug like sails amidst
sea OF verduro 1t has been the battle field
Of nations, from the time when Bclloyesus,
nearly six centuries before Christ, led his
Celtic logions across the Alps, until yesterday,
when the French and Austrian eagles were
striving for supremacy Romans and Cimbri,
Goths and Romans, Lombards aud Franks,
Germans and Italians, French, Spaniards and
Swiss, Austrians and French, have again and
again met in deadly strife ON these wide
spread plains, and have been successfully
swept down, in bloody swaths, by the scytho
Of the grim mower, death.

A DEArH-BED CoNFEssIoN.-T The resi-
donts of Beckman, Duchess county, N. Y,
are now under great excitement, caused by
the revelations of dying man. lie coniess-
cd, with an accomplice, to the murder Of one
Lee, peddler, some twenty years ago, and
the concealment Of his body at place desig-
mated Before he could complete the confess
sion, death sealed his lips, but sufficient was
revealed for his neighbors to know who his
accomplice was. The latter suddenly disap-
peared some eight or ten years ago, and has
not since been heard of. The peddlor refer
red to is recollected. and no doubt is enter-
tanned of the truth of the story.

Among the one hundred and fifty persons
who were the victims Of the recent tornadoos
in Iowa and Illinois, we arc panied to sec the
names of Mr.. and Mrs. Lucius Swott, former
ly of this place. Mr.. SWEET was killed, and
his wife badly injured, Mr.. Swett moved to
Albany, Illinois, few years since, whoro he
has been engaged in teaching up to the time
of his death. Mr.. SWEET was a native of
Danville, served an apprenticeship in this of
fee, afterwards fitted for college at the st.
Johnsbury Academy, and graduated at Bur
lington about the year 50. He was young
man Of remarkable perseverance and industry,
firm and unwayering in principles, and below
ed by all who knew him, We believe he has
gone to a better land. Caiedonian.

WAsHoR-rHR OTHER SIDE OF THE PICTURE
A correspondent Of the Marysville Express, who
has been to Washoe and returned, says; ~ -
spent considerable money, without any prospect
any thing IN return. However, console myself BY
saying that am not the only one. ! cannot say
much about the country, as the ground was covered
with snow, but this much can say: The silver
mines arc all humhugs with the exception Of the
Comstock and Spanish claims which are in the
original fourteen hundred feet and they are all that
have been discovered. The reports that other rich
mines have been discovered are false, we tested
them, and therefore know what write Is true.
There is not piece of rock discovered outside
Of the two leads which have mentioned that looks
like silver ore. Every in the valley can point
il out among thousand fragments, only by feeling
It between his fingers. Iwoud not advise you noe
to 60. as that isnone Of my business. A man going
there within the next two or three weeks, with
liquors and provisions, would probably do well.
Building lots are very high considering but that Is
because they in the hands Of speculators. ThaTs
are number off persons over there who do nothing
else but trade in lots and claims; the latter they are
afraid TO open so that people can see what IL In
them. The excuse is that there is too much snow
on the ground; but mark my word, and see IL they
don't prove as have written.
