THE PAST.

The past is past, with many hopeful morrow
Its errors and its good works live with God;
The agony is Ger Of joy or sorrow;
The flowers lie dead along the path we trod.
The past is past in solemn silence taking
Alike the sunny and the rainy day,
On the live altar of the fond heart breaking
Full many an idol built on feet of clay.
The past is past in certain till rotation,
Deadening and losing as it travelled by,
Each hope that bounds in glad anticipation,
Each vivid passion and each tender tie!
The past is,past! and our young selves de-
Upon the flashing whirl of those fleet years;
Its lessons leave us sadder, stronger hearted,
More slow to work. less prodigal of tears.
The past is past! and knowledge taught sus.
To dim the spirit with its foul, cold shrine;
For many base and dark thing finds admis.
Amid the wisdom learnt from life and time.
The past is past and in that twilight valley
Dwell slow repentance and the vain regret;
Fears for the future from the shadows sally,
And hang around the path before us yet.
The past is past and ah! how few deplore it;
Or would re-live the time had they power;
Though nature sometimes weakly weepeth
DER it,
At memory of some wrong, or happier hour.
The past is past! There's bitter joy in know
ing
It's gone forever; dead and buried deep,
1t lies behind, and on life's stream is flowing
Where the dark waters of the Dead Sea sleep.
The past is past in faith and patience taking
Its lessons, let us lay them on our hearts;
The chains attenuated links are breaking;
Be earnest!-use the present ere it parts

French History in a Nutshell.

Looking over Alison's History of Europe,
from the commencement of the French Rev.
olution until the restoration of the Napoleon
dynasty in 1852--a work, which, in spite of
its Tory bias, is repertory of valuable
facts, political and personal-we are i'm
pressed with the idea of the mutability of
politics in Paris. On hasty thought, who
would believe that all the great events in
France, from the Revolution of 1889 to the
close of the Italian War in 1859, took place
within the limited period of seventy years
This includes the destruction Of the French
Monarchy, the first Republic, the rise, pro-
gress, and fall of Napoleon, the restoration
of the Bourbons, the return from Elba, and
Imperial rule of the Hundred Days, the Sec
and return Of the BOurbons, the imprison
ment and death of Napoleon, the accession
and deposition of Charles the Tenth, the
GLORIOUS Three Days of july" the rise of
Louis Philippe to the French throne as
Lafayette's best of Republics" the Revo.
luton of l849 and exile of the Orleans FAM
lily, the second Republic with Lamartine's
brief ascendency, the election of Louis Ma.
poleon to the Presidency, the coup d'etat of
1851, the restoration of the Empire, the
eatent cord,ale with England, the visits of
Napoleon to London, and of Victoria to
Paris, the Crimean War, and the recent
contest of 1859, which aimed at making
Italy free from the ALPS to the Appe-
nines"
We shall crafty historical students, if not
general readers, by condensing into very
limited space, the annals of the fourteen diff

has experien ced in the seventy years between

the memory of numerous living persons:

Here, then, in few lines, is the history of

7 HE REPUBLICAN NOMINATIONS.


The Republican Convention which assembl
ed at Chicago has performed its work and ad-
iourned The fears of thousands of anxious
hearts have been put at rest, by the eminently
patriotic and prudent course of the delegates
there assembled. The nomination of LINCOLN
and HAAuIN has aroused the popular euthus
asm Of the country, and excited in every breast
the strongest hopes of success.
Mr.. Lincoln is a man of great enthusiasm
vigor and warmth of temperament, of great
popularity thorough representative of West
ern life, formerly a Wing, and now an ardent
Republican in short, he is a man who is es-
pecially suited to rouse the West, while his
known views inspire confidence, where his per-
sonal qualities have less immediate influence
lie was opposed to Mr.. Douglas as a candidate
for the United States Senate in 1853, and
although he then lost the State Legislature,
he still secured majority Of the popular vote
against the strongest possible Democratic can
didate in Illinois. In Illinois aud Indiana, two
among the four leading States usually classed
as doubtful, Mr.. Lincoln is beyond doubt, a
strong candidate, and it was, no doubt, with a
view to securing these important States that
the Convention, after full deliberation, con-
cluded to act.
The nomination of Senator Hannibal Hamlin
Of Maine, for the Vice Presidency, will be
hailed with delight by every friend of Repub
lican principles. No truer representative Of
the fundamental ideas of our organization can
be found anywhere Elected to the Senate
originally as Democrat, he in 1855 abandon
q the party which devoteS It's strength solely
10 the perpetuaton of Slavery, and since that
date has acted firmly with the Republicans in
policy and principle. As their candidate for
Governor, he swept the State by an unpreccd
ented majority, and be still retains the con-
fidence of his State and party. His name will
prove tower of strength in the contest now
inaugurated
We have only space TO say that the nom
nations are everywhere hailed with the great
est enthusiasm as the best and strongest that
could have been made.
We have given up our paper to the pro-
ccedings of the Convention, as we desired to
give q full abstract.

BSg~ The Republicans of Washington held
an enthusiastic ratification meeting on Saturd-
day evening, which was addressed by Mr..
Hamln who gracefully accepted the nomina-
tion rendered him by the Chicago Convention
and by other gentlemen, who pledged their
several States for large majorities for the Re-
publican ticket. The harmony of the occasion
was interrupted for few moments by the dis
graceful behavior of a mob instgated and
headed, it is said, by the son of an oficeholder.
This demonstration Of the rowdy element in
the Federal Capital Was met, however, with
proper spirit by The Republicans and speedily
queled. 1t amounted to nothing more than
PROOF of the rage with which the tools of Dem
ocratic corruption anticipate the incoming of q
new order of things.

Ra~ The prospects for good crops of grass
and winter grain in the county, is dattering,
as we learn from an occasional correspondent
who has visited several of the townships dur
ing the last week. There is also, to all ap-
pearance, reason to hope that the fruit crop
will be abundant, except peaches The trees
are literally loaded with blossoms The green
grass and grain, the white and purple blossoms
of the fruit trees seen in contrast with the
brown earth of the newly ploughed fields
gives the valleys and hill sides of our county
4 most beautiful appearance.

HOSTETTER'S
STOMACH BITTERS.

q The proprietors and manufacturers Of HOS
TETTER'S CELEBRATED STOMACH BIT
TERS can appeal with perfect confidence 10
physicians and citizens generally Of the United
States, because the article has attained repu-
tation heretofore unknown. A few facts upon
this point, viii speak more powerfully than
volumes Of bare assertion or blaEoning puffery,
The consumption Of Hostetter's Stomach Bit
ters for the last year amounted to over half
million bottles, and from its manifest steady
increase in times past, il is evident that during
the coming year the consumption will reach
near one million bottles. This immense amount
could never have been sold but for the rare
medicinal properties contained in the prepara-
ton, and the sanction of the most prominent
physicians in those sections Of the country
where the article Il best known, who not only
recommend the lBitters to their patients, but
are ready at all times to give testimonials to its
ef6cacyin all casesof stomachic arrangements
and the diseases resulting thereirom. "a, 10.
This is not temporary popularity, obtained
by extraordinary efforts in the way Of trum-
