narrow window, whose pale lip longed for the
cool, fresh orange, for whose comfort the tea,

bought, with much sacrifice. And saw him
sip the tea, and taste the dainty bread, and
praise the flavor of the sweet butter, and turn
with Frightening eye to the golden fruit.

THE LOST SHIP.


DY MISS L. X. LANDoN.
Deep in the silent waters,
A thousand fathoms low,
A gallant ship lies pcrishins-
She foundercd long ago.
There are pale sea-aowers wreathing
Around her PORTFOLIOS now,
and spars and shining coral
Encrus, her shining prov.
Upon the old deck bleaching,
White bones unburied shine,
While in the deep hold hidden
Are casks Of ruby wine.
There are pistol, sword and carbinc,
Hung on the cabin wall.
And many curious dagger
But rust has spoiled them all.
And can this be the vessel
That went so boldly forth,
With the red aag Of Old England,
To brave the stormy north!
There were blessings poured upon her
When from her port she sailed,
And prayers, and anxious weeping
Went with her Ger the main.
And once she sent home letters,
Joyous ones were they,
Dashed with fond remembrance
Offrienls so Ear away.
All. many heart was happy,
That evening. when they came,
And many lip pressed kisses
Upon a beloved name!
How little those who read them
Deemed, far below the wave,
That child, and sire, and lover,
Had found a seaman's grave!
But how that brave ship perished
None knew, save Him on high!
No island heard her cannon,
No other barQue was nigh.
We only know from England
She sailed far DER the main
We only know to England
She ne'er came back again.
And eyes grew dim with watching,
That yet refused to weep,
And years were spent in hoping
For tidings from the deep.
II grew an old mans story
Upon their native shore,
God rest those souls in Heaven
Who meet on earth no more!

The people, in truth, are very fortunate in
having as good Il man as Judge Foster 70 vote
for. lie was only induced to ran after con
siderable solicitation, as he has no object TO
accomplish in seeking the Office further than
the public good. The tax-payers~Naill con-
fer greater favor on~e bemsSl Yes thap cen
him by electing him. HIS electfTh via
profit them vastly.
John Bumb is thoroughly Amercanized
German farmer, who by hard work and
good management has placed himself in
comfortable circumstances. A look at his
face impresses one with the idea that he is
incorruptibly horest and perfectly straight
forward in all the relations in life. He has
all the characteristics of the substantial
Pennsylvania Germans, whose integrity of
character is proverbial. The Office was no
object to him, but his friends induced him
to come out, and so he is before the people.
If elected, as be ought to be, he will faith
fully endeavor to act justly and impartially
by all parts of the county. We believe he
will make commissioner who will scear
,reII. and act only for the public good.
This Office is one of the most important
that the people elect, and they ought to be
sure and vote for the right kind of men
those who are honest and competent.

THE LAST OF HIS RACE.-Francis II,
King of Naples, has fed from his Capital.
1t needs no great foresight to predict that
he never will return to it.
His reign has been brief and stormy. He
came to the crown only l6 months ago, and
is but % years old. He has lived in q tur-
moil for which he can hardly be held re-
sponsible. The sins of his father are visited
upon him. He has done nothing very bad
himself has had time to do but little Of any
sort, but he is part of a system under which
the Two Sicilies have groaned for quarter
of a century. He is Bourbon and the
people have determined that the Bourbons
must go down.
His first refuge is Geta, the strongest for
titled city in his kingdom. 1t is town on
the Mediterranean coast, with few people
and many soldiers, ramparts and cannon.
There is A royal palace there, which is a
favorable summer residence, and in W hich

province of TERRA iii Lavoro, of which the
