RYE COFFEE.

Last night heard Widc-Awake
Whose face was very long
With cape and lamp all by his side,
A-sineing of a song.
The song it was a pretty one,
And charmed my listening ear;
| only mind the chorus now,
And will sing it here:
CnoRls-Oh, Rye Coffee.
You're sweet enough for me,
Withou! one grain of sugar, if
The nigrcr can be free
7 saw the cape, and well knew
I'd seen il oft before
And oft Id seen that Lard Oil Lamp
Go xig-zag past my door;
But now the cape was old and torn
The lamp ii had no ''iic,'
Yet swcetly there that Wile-Awakc
Sat singing all the while:
On arrs-Oh. Rye Coffee.
You're sweet enough for me,
Without one grain of sugar, il
The nigger can be free.
| would not say that Wile-Awake
Was singing of u lie
think that Java does not suit
His taste as well as Rye
The man who'd give Old Abe his vote,
And pass the Douglas by,
Would likely sptwn the Java cup,
And swallow down the Rye!
CnoR,s-Oh, Rye Coffee!
The Wilc-.Awakc's delight
| shall remember long how well
lie sung of YOU that night!
wonler if that Ni,le-Awake,
As he sat singing there,
Intended to rcpu;liatc
Ills taxes just and fair?
| wonder il that Wide Awake
Was posted we'll as |
That he was cheating Government
When drinking of the Rye?
CuoRrs-Oh, Rye Coffee
For Wi,le-Awakcs you'll do
But not for patriots who'd give
The Government its due.
Confoumdcd be Rye Coffee,
Corn Coffee and all that!
That | will still drink Java, you
May safely bet your hat!
Confoundcd be the man who matte
The tax a neCdtul thing =
But Eve better chorus here,
Which please stand up and sing:--
CHoRrs--Go way CHf5e!
The masters servant bel
But Lei us all pray for the time
When COFFEE shall he FREE!

A CoNTRAsr-Decidedly the most brilliant
military campaign in which our country ever.
engaged was the Mexican War, during the
administration of President Polk. Ex-Presi-
dent Buchanan was, at that time, Secretary Of
State, and the late Governor Marcy, Secretary
of War. The most extensive means had to be
provided for the maintenance of large army
in distant country, and millions of money
passed through the hands of the government
officers. But we do not remember that any one
of them was ever charged with speculation or
dishonesty. Certain it is that not whisper
was ever heard affecting the integrity of Mr..
Marcy, and he retired from office enjoying the
respect of the whole country. The Democrat
ic administration of President Polk, in that
campaign, set an example which might have
been profitably followed by those holding high
places under Mr.. Lincoln. 1t certainly is not
necessary to the successful prosecution of a
war that all concerned in conducting it should
turn highway robbers.-Eastoa argus.

A HATFIELD ANEcporE--An old gentleman
who was always Dragging how folks used to
work in his younger days, one day challenged
his two sons to pitch on a load of hay as fast as
he could load it.
The challenge was accepted and the hay wag-
ON driven round and the trial commenced For
some time the old man held his own crcditably,
calling out
''Alore hay more hay"
Thicker and fasterit came. The old man was
nearly covered; still he kept crying
'AIore hay! more hay!"
At length, struggling to keep on the top of the
disordercd and i'll arranged heap, it began first
to roll, then to slide, and at last off it went from
the wagon, and rolled the old man with it.
''What are you down here for2" cried the
boys.
II came down after hay" answered the old
man, stoutly.

Ben McCulloch is finally dead. This
time there is no mistake The fact is
confessed by his own friends, and
made the subject of special order.

would not believe that his time had

that it wasn't in the power ofthe Yan~
KEGS to kill him. Finally, feeling him>
self going, and being told he had but
a few moments to live, be exclaimed"
On, He'll " turned his face away and
expired.
His death rids the earth of a great
scourge. He was man of infamous
principles and infamous life. Few had
done more to foster lawlessness--few
had done more to corrupt the people.
He was one of the leading spirits Of
the rebellion in the southwest; and his
voice and example were potent in spur
ring his savage followers to deeds OF
! violence and brutality.
And yet we are told he had little OF
! the ruffian in his appearance, In his
normal moods he was the
-" 1niidest hammered man
| That ever scuttled ship or cut throat
He was soft of speech, plausible and
oily, and could enact the polished gen.
