The Republican Form o
Government Preferred.

The New York Tribune makes capi-
tai hit in the following, when it says that
the people prefer the Republican to the
Stantonian form Of Government. Mr..
GREELEY says:
I'VE venture to assure our new Presi-
dent that the American people, having
now given fair trial TO the Stantonian
and the Republican forms of Government
respectively, do greatly prefer the latter,
and desire a return to it at the earliest
possible day-which they believe to be
this day II we are still at war, and our
lGovernment in peril. then, such orders as
have recently been issued re-opening trade
aud reducing our ornaments ought to be
countermandcd or forborne; but II the war
is virtually ended, the rebellion discom-
fitted and the nation saved, then We insist
that the regime under which Distric,
Provost Marshal ranks the Governor OF a
State ought at once to pass away, the
privilege Of hobeds corpus be restored
and the reign of law and liberty be re.
established. How much longer must VIC
wait for it?"

Origin Offhe Bonnet.

The FIRST bonnet worn in England was
brought from Italy in the reign Of Queen
Elizabeth, and its form was compromise
between the present Italian peasant bat
and the French hood. The material.
employed in constructing these head or.
naments were crimson satin, elaboratelJ
embroidered, cloth of gold, and similal
rich materials. The Leghorn, hat, with
perpendiculaI crown and wide brim stan
ding out far around the face, was the frs
legitimate bonnet worn. and this appeared
long after Queen Elizabeth's time. ]
was trimmed with artificial flowers ant
immense bows of ribbon. Our presen

THE SPRING JOURNEY.
N BISHOP HssRY.


o, green was the corn as rode on my way,
And bright were the dews on the blossoms of
May,
And dark was the sycafbors's shade to behold,
And the oaks tender leaf was OF emerald and
gold:
The thrush frsth his holly, the lark from his
cloud,
Their chorus Of rapture sung jovial and lond;
From the soft vernal shy to the soft grassy
ground
There was beatty above me, beneath and
around.
The mild southern breeze brought shower
from the hill,
And yet though It left me all dripping and
chill,
felt new pleasure as onward sped,
To gaze where the rainbow cleaned broad
overhead.
|o, suoh be iifs's journey, and such be cal
skill
To lose in its blessings the SENSE Of its iii;
Through sunshine aud shower may our pre-
grsss be even,
And our tears add charm to the prospect os
heaven.

A WORD FOB LADs.--Lads. why look
from your homes, your gardens, your
farms, fields, pastures. for happiness?--
Many man has rued the day, when,
tempted by the glare of a city life, he left
the comforts of home for the temptation
and exposure of the business world. Was
il curse for Adam and Eve TO be driven
from the garden of Eden? Rather mako
home an Eden. Cultivate the soil.--
Make it produotivs. Beautify the yards
and gardens Make walks--set out choice
trees, shrubs and plants. Keep horses,
cattle and other domestic animals sleek,
In ten thousand ways make homo an
Eden. You will be rewarded. - Plough
