"MY WIFE AND CHILD"

The following is from the pen of Confederate
len. jackson, (who has figured so conspicuous
7 on the Upper Potomac, and at Winchester
uring the war; and was written while he wa
18th the army in Mexico, of which he was {
rave and efficient officer. 1t is full of the pa
nos of genuine poetry and true affection.
The tattoo beats--the lights are gone;
The camp around in slumber lies;
The night with solemh pace moves on,
The shadows thicken DER the skies;
But sleep my weary eyes hath flown,
And sad, uneasy thoughts arise.
think of thee, oh, dearest one,
Whose love my early life hath blest;
Of thee and him-our baby SON
Who slumbers on thy gentle breast;
God Of the tender, frail and lone,
Oh, guard that gentle sleeper's rest.
And hover, gently hover near
To her, whose watchful eye is wet
The mother, wife-the doubly dear,
Inwhose young heart have freshly met
Two streams of love so deep and clear
And cheer her dropping spirits yet.
Now, while she kneels before Thy throne,
That while by Thy behest alone
Earth's mightiest powers fall or rise,
No tear is wept to Thee unknown,
No hair is lost, no sparrow diesl
That Thou can'st stay the ruthless hands
OF dark disease, and soothe its pain;
That only by thy Thy stern commands
The battles lost the soldiers slain
That from the distant sea or land
Thou bring'st the wanderer home again
And when upon her pillow lone
Her tear-wet cheek is sadly pressed,
May happier visions beam upon
The frightening currents Of her breast;
Nor frowning look, por angry tone,
Disturb the Sabbath of her rest !!
Whatever fate those forms may show,
Loved with passion almost wild
BY day-by night in joy o. VOC
By fears oppressed, or hopes beguiled,
From every danger, every foe,
oh, God ! protect my wife and child

Reorganization Of The Republican


The Albany Journal. the representative of
eating the reorganization OF the Republican party,
gives the following one Of the reasons for that
policy: but parties will exist after the war; and
will the issues which. before the war, separated
the Republican from the Democratic party" 1t
Is in favor of the Republicans now maintaining
the distinctive issues which they have heretofore
advocated and upon which they succeeded in Oh
tanning the control of the Government. Another
Republican organ, the New York World, more
clearly defines the considerations which should
determine the Republicans to adhere to their par
~ organization for the purpose OF maintaining
and continuing their party ascendency. Ii says:
The Republican politicians who take the most
active interest in this prospective movement are
we'll known friends OF Secretary Seward. and il
mas fairly be inferred that the efforts in this di-
rection are inspired by him His friends form a
majority of the present Republican party IN New
York: but il the policy pursued lGat fall should
be repeated. and the next election he carried by
the aid of Union Democrats, il is probable that
the friends of Mr. Seward would find themselves
IN minority in p,rty thus reinforced As the
Republicans are strong enough to carry the State
tcuH0M sufH dn, tneFe are powerful oDNiOus ftf-
sons why Mr. Stewards friends should insist on
the maintenance OF strict party organization.
This foreshadows the policy which will be pur-
sued by the Republican leaders. There will be
no fusion with the elements antagonistc to Re
publicanism in any of the States where the Repub-
Leans are strong enough to carry them without
such aid. This will be the extent of the no
partyism of the Republicans In this State, the
Republican leaders will make the next political
battle upon strict party issues, if they have a
reasonable confidence OF success. With such a
prospect they will not ask the aid or seek an
affiliatiou with "Union Democrats" This is
just the extent of their very patriotic PROPOSE
tons Of no party during the war They didn I
want any outside aid at the recent election in
New Hampshire; they didn't want any in New
York; nor will they want it in any State where
they go it alone An unconditional Union
party with them means nothing less than the I'M
conditional triumph of Republican principles
Republican policy and Republicans. They will
unfurl the black banner wherever they are strong
enough, and nobody should be deceived by hypo-
critical professions TO the contrary.

Democratic Successes in wisconsin

The recent elections in Wisconsin give graft
flying evidence of healthy reaction in public
sentiment and growing devotion to the Union in
that State The Abolition heresy appears to have
run its course; the people awakened to its
dangerous tendency and hostility towards the
Union, and are arraying themselves against it..
Every city in the State which voted last Tuesday
gave Democratic maorities All of these cities,
with not more than two exceptions, were last year
Republican. This universal change means all it
seems to mean. 1t means death to sectionalism
life for the Government. 1t means restoration
and peace, if restoration and peace are possible.
1t means that the people of the North mean
hereafter to keep step to the music of the
Union. Port Wayne Sentinel

Shall the branches Of the State Bank con.
tinue 70 redeem their bills in gold and silver,
ss literal construction Of the Constitution
seems to require. In giving an answer to this
question it is proper to say that the redemption
Of their notes in gold and silver will defeat the
object Of their creation which was TO furnish Q
sound and convertible currency. While the
banks in the country are in q state Of suspen
sion, all Of them refusing to redeem their notes
in coin, Iowa banks cannot do It without ct
once Withdrawing their paper from circulation.
This they are able, aud so far a. We know, will
ing to do. But just as soon as brokers have
gathered up all their bills aud drawn the gold
for them, we shall have nothing in circulation
in this State except foreign bank paper-bills Of
Eastern banks that We know nothing about. 1t
is fair to presume that with this foreign curren.
cy in the hands of our people we shall again
pay roundly for the privilege Of using it AZ in

When there is q resumption Of specie payments
We shall find ourselves "stuck" With worthless

It is the farther away from home It 10 sent, -
general rule.
How this matter may strike others We cannot
say, but it seems to US that the spirit Of its char
ter would require the State Bank to furnish
good, sound convertible home currency, which
it only can do by redseming its paper in Treas
ury notes, which Congress has made a legal
tender. Thus can the State Bank save the
State from being plundered by the Eastern
Banks Should this course be resolved on and
properly carried out it must rebound greatly tc
the benefit ofthe people of Iowa On the other
hand a continuance to pay coin will wind up our
banks, so far ss circulation is concerned in quick
time, and long before July not a State Bank bill
will be seen. We think it better that they re.
deem in Treasury notes and keep their bills
afoat than that their coin should sll 60 into the
hands Of brokers. And that it does 60 into the
hands of brokers we need only say that Of $90,s
600 paid over its counter in redemption Of its
notes since the lst of January by the Burlington
Branch, over $685. 900 was paid brokers, mostly
from other States. What the people want is a
