over the basket.
See, Jenny, this scarlet bunch. "Will
it not be lovely, with a few dark leaves, to
wear with my new silk ?"
But" whispered Jenny, you can't af-
ford it just now"
Yes can. Father gave me some mon

"Oh Laura, hate to hear you talk Of
that private account. 1t seems so much
like cheating father"
Nonsense it will stand till ! am mar
ried, and then i can easily save it out OF
my housekeeping money"
81 should not wish to marry in debt,
said Jenny.
The peddler looked earnestly at the Sis
ters,
"You had better take this blue bunch,
Miss" he said to Jenny. /" If it amt con-
venient to pay for it now, Twill call again. "
No, shall not take them
They are very becoming, Miss. Look
in this glass;
"I wish my hair was light" said Laura.
should like to wear blue. Godfrey Hor-
ton said last night that forget-me-nots were
his favorite flowers.
Jenny colored, and placing the bunch
again in the basket, said
Come, Laura, decide. You are keep
ing one waiting whose time is probably val
uable," and then passing a chair she added

81 will take that scarlet bunch, and those
red camelias, and this white cluster" said
Laura.
'' But, sister, you can't afford it,
Yes, can. Godfrey Horton is rich"
The old man bit his lip.
"Think," said Jenny in a low tone, " if
you love him, how much IT will griere him,
if he should discover this deceit"
Nonsense! Well, I'll tell you how to
remedy it. Lend me some money out Of
the housekeeping funds"
F" Laura steal from my father Z"
"There, don't preach"
4" Miss Jenny" said a servant, entering
at that moment, the dinner has come"
Jenny left the room, and Laura still
turned over the gay flowers, while the old
man pointed out their various beauties, he
in the meantime, running over the disor-
dered hair, shabby dress and lazy position,
while he mentally contrasted them with
Jenny's neat attire.

ing after short absence
"No, come here"
" can't. Father has sent home calls

Margaret, must superintend the dinner,
make pudding, and the parlors must be
busted, and there is my white MULE to be
finished"

cried Laura.
"Drudge nonsense ] have plenty of
time for enjoyment, and father cannot have
a comfortable house if some one does not
superintend these things. When marry
you may do it," and she laughed merrily.
AS if should not marry first said
Laura. There | have chosen all l want"
"Shall / call again for the change 7"
said the peddler. :" shall be happy to
put the Misses Somers on my list of Gus
TONER'S"
Yes, call again.
So the peddler took up his basket, walk
ed home, threw aside his wig, beard and
disguise, and wrote an offer of his hand and
heart to Miss Jenny Somers, which was
accepted.
Laura Somers has two sources of pro-
found speculation. One is, " why Godfrey
Horton proposed to Jenny instead of me ?"
The other, wonder why that old man
never called to be paid for those exquisite
flowers ?"

shared with him the benefits and profits Of

A PILL FOR GERMANS!

In Seneca county at the recent election,
there was one German on the Democratic
ticket, Mr.. Wagner, candidate for Sheriff;
and while the balance of the ticket was
elected by about two hundred majority,
Wagner was defeated by about one ham
dred. The Democrats slaughtered thei,
own candidate because he was German
just as they did Judge Lang in the same
county last fall when he run for the Legis
lature. They are willing to give the Ger
mans township Office occasionally, but
when they ask for more than that the Lo.
cofocos are the very first men to cut lhei
throats. Germans how long will you
suffer your selves to be deceived by these
fellows? l H.Ea. NV --H

POOR FELLOWS!

We really pity our Douglas friends in
this community, especially that portion Of
them who were made believe that Doug
las was going to carry everything before
him in November. They seem to be
dead in the shell''--they now give up
everything and acknowledge that the Lit
tie Giant has no chance Of carrying even
one State. oh, what come down for
men who started out with the declaration
that their candidate would carry nearly
every State in tho Union. Gentlemen,
we pity you; but we cant do anything
for yos unless you just make up your
minds to vote for ''Old Abe" Come a.
long with us and vote your real sentiments
you know as we'll as you know that you
live that there ought to be change in the
administration of this government. Their
why not vote for it?

Good Doctrine.

Somebody has examined an extract
from speech of Mr.. Winthrop, made in
the House of Representatives at Wash
ington, in 1847. in which was clearly and
tersely stated the present anti-slavery doc
trines Of the Republican party, asit could
be given by Mr.. Lincoln or Governor
Chase. The extract is as follows:
81 speak fer Massachusetts,. l believe
| speak the sentiments OF all New Eng
land, and of many other States out OF
New England when 1 say that upon this
question our minds are male up. So far
as we have power, constitutional or NOR
al power, we are resolved that there shall
be no further extension Of Slavery in the
Territory of this Union. This is not
matter to argue with US about. l do not
intend to be driven from raj firm cypress
ion of purpose, and steadfast adhe-
renee to principle, by any threats Of dis
union from any quarter Il Territories
are to be conquered and annexed. we
shall stand fast and forever to the princi-
pie that, SO far as we are concerned. these
Territories shall be forever the abode OF
frecmen."
The Republican party wants no better
anti-slavery sentiment than this.

During eight years they have failed to
pass one bill for the benefit Of any great
national interest On the contrary they
have defeated every good measure the
Republicans have proposed.
They defeated the Homestead bill.
They defeated the Pacific Railroad
bill.
They have defeated the bill to abolish
Polygamy in Utah. F4f

Still Work to Do.

Let not Republicans make the certain
ty of Lincoln's election an excuse for
inaction or Indifference. There is still
work for you to do, in every township
and school district. We must not only
keep what we have got, but we must
swell our majority to $4,000. Wyandot
must be wheeled into the line OF Repub-
lican counties and this can be done, E

big majorities. That the talk.-ssa )

The Difference between the Two.

Abraham Lincoln is at home, attend.
ing strictly to his own every DAY business.
If the people want him to be President,
they will elect him. Contrast this manly.
digniied course. with that Of Stephen A..
Douglas. Under the pretence of visiting
his mother, he wandered all over the
New England States. making one and
two stump speeches each day, and beg
giDg votes like candidate for town con-
stable. The one is statesman and a
patriot, and the other a miserable office
seeking demagogue, who would sacrifice
anything and everything to crafty his
personal ambition. Choose ye between
them.

The Way It's Going.

The Washington correspondent OF the
Cincinnati Gazette, under date Of the
10Th inst, has the following in regard to
the state of affairs at the Federal City,
since the October election:
"The Little Giant is now universally
regarded as played out, and his preten.
sions are absolutely derided by those who
once We're wont to pay him respect
Thousands who swore by him in the hey
day of his prosperity, since recent North
ern elections have given him the cold
shoulder, and gone over, body and
breeches, to Breckinridge.

The Calm in Politics.

There is Just now, (since the Pennsyl-
vania, Ohio and Indiana elections, a
great calm in politics. But it is only the
calm which precedes the hurricane that is
destined to sweep the Douglas and Bell
factions from the face of the earth. The
Republicans, on the 9th of November,
mean to place ABE LINCOLN in the Presi-
tisl chair, and scatter the disorganized op-
position arrayed against him to the four
winds. Bretheren, prepare for the great,
the final, the decisive battle! The Doug
las men, with imploring looks and stream
ing eyes, are calling on the Know Noth-
ings to lift them from the slough of de.
spond.' We defy their combined efforts.
We dare theE to the combat. We fear
not their impotent threats. Our cause is
just; our principles are the principles Of
the fathers of the Revolution, on which
the Union is founded. Let US, then, marcl,
to the fight in November. with this motto
inscribed on our banner: "Liber'y and
Union, now and forever, one and inseper.
able.' Think Of nothing, now, gallan
Republicans, but your duty to attend the
polls. A few days more. and your souls
will be cheered with the most brilliant
victory recorded in our political annals.
