Immense Armies.

There is little doubt that the armies now
on the Inc of the Potomac and its vicinity
amount to the immense aggregate of near
200 900 men on each side, 400 900 combat
ants. Whenever a general battle shall occur,
il will not only have no parallel on the West
ern Continent in the forces engaged, but
hardly one in the history even of modern
Europe. will vie with it. The great battle of
Napoleon were generally fought with num-
bers far inferior to those now under the walls
of Washington,
For instance. at Austerlitz. where Napoleon
defeated the combined armies of Russia and
Austria. he had bu, 80 600 troops: the allies
had 1oO.0OD At Jena and Auerstadt. where

walls of Msscuw. he had but 12O. 900 to

Had our farmers and machlnists conspired

The world is full of wild projectors,
moneyless and void of discretion, who
would swamp a nation if they could only
induce capitalists to embark in the reall-

capitalists so timid and Incapable that
the modest ideas are stihed and starved
through their lack of perception and

Look at its ticket in this county. Every

that of our folks, Of good mcn-not boys
without regard to their former party predi

principles not reasonable, why do its organ

Child of the grand old Autumn!
October iioatcth 10y,
A regal grace on her sHnkissed face
And light i'll her bcan.ug eye;
Over her polished shoulders,
" isssc dull and fading grass,
The golden brown OF her hair flows down
As her .pringing footsteps pass.
She will breathe on the dim old forest,
And stainngs of crimson light,
Like the bushes tina, speak
On her own bright cheek,
viii fall ON the leaves tonight
And the mellow light of the dawning,
When the first faint sunbcams play,
And the tIusheS that rest
On the sunset breast,
She will leave On the trees day.
She will tap at the cottage window,
One tap with her fingers cold,
And the fire vii! be bright
In the hearth Tonight,
AS it was in the nights of old;
And hearts will draw close together,
In the light of the CHEEKY flame,
While fond lips will bless
For their happiness
The sound of Octobcr's name.
Then she'll touch the tree tops softly,
And Il carpet all fresh and sweet,
In colors as bright
As the rainbow light,
Will fall at her fairy feet;
Sometimes she woos the Summer
BY the light of her magic smile,
Sometimes she calls
At the frost king halls,
And bids him reign awhile.
Then when the hills are woven
With many a tinted strand,
When Il vail of romance
U.ikc the bright cloud $ dancc,)
Is wrapped over sea and land,
Like Il dream that is wild with splendor,
Like the sun at the close Of day,
Like the visions that rest
In Il maiden's breast,
October will float away!
