THE GENERAL RKSVLT,

We believe it is genera = conceded that
Lincoln is elected. If there is any doubt,
OF it, We confess We do not know where to
look for it. And from the complexion of
Southern bad faith for the Union cause,
We cannot say that We feel like shedding
tears Under all the circumstances, we
are doing as we'll as could be expected
Tho great avalanche that has been pre-.
eipita.ed over the broken ''remansr of our
good old party, takes the starch GU. of our
oPponents-so that they hardly feel like
growing. They hare taken nearly ell the
tricks We don't feel like being '.joksd'
with, aud we hope our opponents will
draw it as mild as possible. We have
stood by our colors manfally, without.
iiinching We fall with our faces toward
the enemy, ana as our prisoners can be
"exchansea,' we shall be ready for auo,h
er "charge."
Ii the Republicans must win, we say the
stronger the better, for the ore power
they have-,hs more their responsibility,
and the sooner they will swallow each
other. They carried all before then in
ls4o-just 20 years ago -and in l84l,
shsy lost everything.
We know our opponents, and have
known them for years-we know that like
other animals born blind, they will cat
poison with grso. avidiy. The spoils are
their bane. The great political cheese is
filed with its rirus-from which they are
a'roady beginning to ''nibblo' For the
nine days they will be drunk with success
aud excitement, and then they will go
to quarrelling and lighting for the spoils,
And as their success is SO overwhelming,
and their appetite so keen, TO say nothing
of the fact that every third man is an Of
flee lover, they will wage such relentless
war for the spoils, that they canno, fail to
fall to pieces. We say, lie. the Republi.
cans sxult, and enjoy their victory while
they can't porterds their end.
THE BCRLING-GAME DON'T WIN,
1t Is consoling, during the Egyptian
darkness that has prevailed in the East, to
see single ray Of light shining through

clared for new constitution new Bible

a fire was kindled in the old.fashioned fire
place, and the cracking flames made them
all the merrier. The music sounded to her,
like the melody of heaven. There was har-
mony in everything she saw and heard
Gentle tones, full of love, were given by
one to the other. The father, tall and hand
some as she had imagined, sat like a king
in bis great armchair, and his laugh was
the loudest and heartiest of all. When he
spoke to her, there was such softness, al.
most pity, in his voice, that she took
straight to loving him, and felt yearning
desire to call him father with her own lips;
and as she retired to Medals pretty cham
Der, where everything was as exquisitelY
neat as hands could make it, her heart over
flowed with emotion, and she could not help
saying, as she took Medals hand, tOh

LIsTEN.-The Augusta Business Direc-
tory says: Let itberemembered that those
who adververtise literally can sell cheaper
than those who do not, and the reason for
this is obvious. Advertising increases the
business of the advertiser, and with such
increase he must necessarily have advan-
tage unpossessed by the others. Dennis
Bulgrudery, the inn keeper, used to charge
an exorbitant price, and his boardsrs re-
monstrating, he used to justify himself with
the remark, that so few stopped with him.
he was obliged to charge a big priceiso as
to make up the deficiency. Soft is with
those that sell . little, they must charge
more to make up, to prove which, let any
one make the experiment. -r
Listen again. Another exchange says
several Irishman were trying, the other
day, to decipher notice headed public
sale ) the notice, although written tolerably
plain, could not be read by the Emeralders,
and they requested US to read it for them,
which of course we did. Atthe conclusion
one of them turned to his comrades and re-
marked in very impressive tone: tWell,
be jabers, I'll never buy ola man who's
so nagardly that he won't get his advertise
ments printed; he's chated the printer and
and he'd chate me- They all acquiesced
in his decision. aaY

STAR FORMS A NEW FRIENDSHIP.

STAR FORMS NEW FRIENDSHIP.
If the great kitchen had seemed pleasant,
how much more the large picture-ligbted
room, with its comfortable carpet, its music,
its statuettes and beautiful occupants
Was it possible, that she had so suddenly
found such kind friends? She could hard
ly realize it, as she gazed first on one sweet
face, then the other. Even Tiney had
brought her choicest play-things for her
inspection, and the baby, laughing in her
face, was thrusting his silver bells and cor
al stick upon her knee.
Now you must take that shawl off, and be
quite comfortably at home,' said Mary, un-
loosing the drapery, 'for we shall keep you
here with your brother to-day, if there is
really no need of your being at home. Is
there?'
The desolate room came before Stars
vision. She said impulsively, as her eyes
swan in tears. mo, there's no one wait
ing for me there
Mary kissed the fair, child.like brow,
and with thousand little motherly atten-
tions, drew her mind from her troubles
Media talked with her about the drawing
she had been finishing, brought out her
embroidery, chatted with her, sang to her,
and before the day was half gone, Star felt
as if she was no longer alone. This beau
tiful woman and lovely girl were her
friends, and she thanked God with a CRATE
full heart that He had led her feet to those
pleasant borders.
Fredric's eyes beamed with pleasure
when he met his sister at the table, and saw
the new light in her eye; and he found
himself wishing as he glanced towards Me-
dia, that they could both be in the midst
of such happy family all the time.
Evening came, and still they were un-
willing to part with Star. Why could she
not stop till the next day-or the next?-
Indeed, for week, or much longer, Star
was welcome. So Frederic, easily influenced
where his heart was concerned, was prevail
ed upon to remain-at least for the night
And Oh! the happy evening that follow
ed! Star began to think that this home
was veritable fairy-land What beautiful
face had Marshall Hamilton, she thought
so genius-fraught! What brow and eyes,
in whose depths lurked the inspiration Of a

children, he could not bear to; see them
brought down to poverty. O., I think I
know little of what he felt, and-I could
not-no I couldn't wear them. I thank
you very much for your kind intentions, but
indeed, I should seem to see his blood on
them I should indeed
well, must say, you are strange crea-
ture,' said Dora, with her little vexed pout.
sWhy I've made some of the most delight:
ful dresses for my baby, out Of these same
things. h'e no scruples of the kind, can
tell you; for you see, if we didn't get these
things somebody else woodland why not
us? Mr.. Hamilton obliged him by lending
him money, and he obliged Mr.. Hamilton
by dying in his debt. Well, Mark had
these goods secured to him beforehand, and
men are not squeamish about such things,
you know. Mark used to be, but he's as
bold now, as anybody. You see one mast
look out for =one's own interest. Now are
you really in earnest about refusing these
things?' .-.. ..,...r
Il couldn't wear them,' said Star, sadly.
20! very well,' replied Dora, somewhat
haughtily, 'if you don't choose to, Of course
I shan't force them upon you. It's grow
ing chilly here, perhaps we had better ad-
journ down stairs, where you can get over
your feelings #
So saying they went out, and Dora locked
the door again. Possibly she carried some
qualms Of conscience into her bright sitting
room. If she did, they were soon forgotten
in the announcement, that her husband
had returned and brought friend with him
