Delegate Elections.

We deem 1t unnecessary to again urge on
our Democratic readers. the Importance of
attending the delegate elections on next Sat
urday, aud securing the election of reliable
and intelligent delegates 70 the County Con-
vention, who knowing their duty, will have
manliness and honesty enough to faithfully
discharge it. If the Convention is composed
of weak and timid men, who will allow them
selves to be bullied aud dictated to by a few
impudent political demagogues, the party
may expect to be saddled with a weak and un-
available ticket, and certain defeat on the
secopd tuesday OF next October will stare it
in the face. Remember Democrats, that
you have it in your power to prevent this. by
selecting your best aud most reliable men as
delegates; if failing to do this, dema-
gouges should ''rule the roast" and weak
ticket be placed in the field, you, and you
alone. will be to blame 1t will then be but
just and truthful to tell you, that knowing
your duty you did it not, and that by your
| own negligence, you entrusted the Party to
few selfish, reckless time-serving dema-
gouges. We hope the elections everywhere
will be conducted tremendously and that no
man will be recognized as having special
| claims on the party. because he was Brek-
! inridge man a or Douglas man during the un-
fortunate campaign of last year; we mus;
| allow bygones to be bygoues, if we expect
! any good to come of the union of the Party
for the present contest Let US bury the
Ratchet with its edge downwards, and afford
to the world Illustration of how good a
thing it is for brethren to dwell together in
unity.

Oh, the thought is JOY TO me,
OF happy childhood's years,
When my youthful life was free,
From SORROWS, cares and fears.
Fond memory darts with arrows feet,
And carries me back again,
To chi'dhood's years and l gaily tread,
O'er woodland, hill and plain.
1t reveals to my mind cottage home,
In the midst of blooming flowers,
Where at bright sunny hours of noon,
sought cool shady bowers.
1t paints to me in colors new,
Familiar scenes most dear,
AS gay and fair, as bright aud true,
As of old they now appear.
1t brings back forms long, long forgot,
Fond playmates bright and gay,
As hurrying to some chosen spot,
We spent long hours at play.
And joyOusly we strolled along,
O'er hill, DER dale, o'er plain,
And listening to the birds of song,
We mingled in their strain.
We stored no thought for the coming day,
No worldly thought obeyed,
We thought of nought but joy and play,
Where wantcn fancy strayed.
was then a happy child,
Ny youthful heart had known no care
All nature round me fondly smiled,
And Hiss reigued everywhere,
But Oh! those happy years have fed,
And youth likewise has gone,
And those | loved have joined the dead,
And left me in this world alone.
Dear memory now is all l claim,
TO soothe my lonely heart and cheer
1t brings back visions just the same,
AS when they gladly hovered near.
But this one thought inspires my heart,
Where present bliss be given,
With all that in this world part,
