cordial assent. 1T the Democrats of the North
had accepted it with the same sincere desire
Tor the public good, it would have been indors-
sd and affirmed by the people. But they did
nothing OF the sort, They took it as part of
their own stock in trade. They seized it as the
ladder upon which they were to climb back
again into the high places from which they had
been expelled. Designed as a great national
movement tor the attainment of national ends.
1t became, In their hands, tool for the attain
ment OF partisan purpose-for the resump-
ton OF official place and party power.
Unfortunately y the friends ofthe Administra-
ton lent themselves to the project. Democrat
lc Committees and Democratic candidates re-
paired to Washington and demanded of the
Administration the aid of its patronage and its
influence for their party purposes it was
very largely accorded to them. Democrats of
Copperhead antecedentS were appointed to of
nee universally, perhaps often through
lnadVertence and lack of information,-b
upon the application Of Democratic leaders. far
more anxious to restore their party to power
tnan to serve the Administration or save the
Unlon. The same men, acting from the same
motives, secured Democratic nominations, for
State offices and for Congress, whether they
had chances OF success, and the whole current
OF political action ran in the same direction.
The natural effects of all this was to produce
upon the public mind the conviction that the
aim OF the Administration was to restore the
Democratic Party to power; and as this con-
viction grew the political power Of the Admin
istration dwindled until it absolutely ceased, as
the result shows, to have any perceptible inhu-
ence upon the elections whatever. There is
one thing upon which the people have made
up their minds, and neither the President nor
any other power can change it, and it is that
the restoration of the Union shall not be in
trusted to the men who tried to destroy it by
war, nor to those who failed to resist that at
tempt by all the means in their power. This
determination may not be logical, nor consti-
tutlOnal, nor strictly in accordance with the
rights OF States and sections; but it is instinc-
tive and unconquerable.

SHERIDAN'S TEN-PINs. Our soldiers could
not very well carry bowling alleys along with
them, but General Sheridan supplied this def
cheney by the invention of game of ten-pins.
A ball, usually l2-pound shell, was suspend
ed from the limb of i tree, or from some con-
venlent arrangement. The board on which the
pms were set up was placed either beyond or
In front of the spot over which the ball hangs
when at rest This is necessary, as it would
be almost impossible to strike the pins other
wise. The game is played by throwing the
ball so that it shall miss the pins on its forward
swing and strike them on its return. In order
to do this it is necessary to "enCish" or twist
the ball as it leaves the hand Some very nice
calculation is necessary to do this with certain
ty. Three shots are given to each player; but
he loses these if he strikes the pins on the for
ward swing.
Sheridan, says correspondent, "is by
tar the best player that have seen, although
some of his staff, among them Colonel Sautelle,
are quite successful players.
Following his freely-expressed idea, that a
man Is foolish who can not unbend, but makes
an effort to be great man all the time" Gen
eral Sheridan has arranged game among the
trees about his present home in New Orleans
Here the General with his staff and friends
amuse themselves occasionally during the al
ternOOn.
The game was always favorite in the Army
OF the Potomac. General Sheridan invented
1t for the amusement Of the convaescents
which camped near Mufreesborough.

The State Elections.

The following article is from the New York
Times, one of the leading oracles in the Phila-
delphia August Convention movement. The
elections have proved an excellent eye-opener.
Says the Times:
The results of the late elections show very
clearly that the contest has been almost pre-
clsely as 1T was two years ago, between the
Democratic and the Union parties. The diffe-
rences between Congress and the President
have had no perceptible influence upop the nar-
ty divisions of the past four or five years
Nor has the Philadelphia Convention strong
as was the impression which it made at the
outset upon the public mind, produced any
marked effect upon political organizations in
the several States where elections have been
held. On the one side is the old Democratic
vote,-increased or diminished somewhat here
and there by local influences, and on the other
is the Union majority, stronger on the whole
than ever BEFORE and not at all affected either
by the strong appeals made to its judgment
and reason, or by the influence and patronage
of the General Government brought to bear
upon it. 1t is undoubtedly true that the whole
power of the Administration has been thrown
against the Republican party: yet that power,
great as it always is, has been able to effect alb
solutely nothing in the general result.
| The reason Of this is found in the fact that il
has been thrown IN favor of the democratic
Party as organized and directed during the
war. 1t has not been used with primary re-
gard to the principles and policy ofthe Admin
lstration itself. The Philadelphia Convention
set forth what we believe to be the Admins
tration platform on the subject of Restoration
put that platform was not made the basis o
political action by the Administration itself o
by anybody else. 1t was simply surrendered
: 70 the Democratic Party as stepping. stone T.
power. Inc leaders of that party seized upol
. 1t for that use, Their subsequent action prov
ed S Seoneaps.yely that their motives in acceptin
sought, not so much the restorat;on' of th
!. Union as the reorganization and reinstatemeu

PROCLAMATION BY TIE PRESIDENT


By the President Of the United States-A
Proclamation.
Almighty God, our Heavenly Father. has
been pleased to vouchsafe to us as people an.
other year of that national life which is an in
dlspensable condition of peace, security and
progress That year has, moreover, been
crowned with many peculiar blessings. The
civil war that so recently closed among us has
not been anywhere re-Opened Foreign inter-
ventlOn has ceased to excite alarm or appre-
hensiOn; intrusive pestlence has been benign
ly mitigated dome &c tranquility has improv-
ed; sentiments of ,)nciatiOn have largely
prevailed, and affections Of loyalty and patriot
ism have been widely revived; our fields have
yielded quite abundantly; our mining industry
has been richly rewarded; and we have been
allowed to eXtehd our railroad system far into
the interior recesses of the country, while our
commerce has resumed its customary activity
in foreign seas. These great national blessings
demand a national Acknowledgement.
Now therefore, |, Andrew johnson, Presi-
dent Of the United States, do hereby recon-
mend that Thursday, the 29th of November

occasion they do humbly and honestly implore
Him to grant to our National Councils, and to
our whole people, that Divine wisdom which
alone can lead any nation into the ways of all
good.
In offering these national thanksgivings,
praises and supplicatiOns, we have the Divine
assurance that " the Lord remaineth q King
forever. Them that are meek shall He guide
in judgment, and such as are gentle shall He
learn His way. The Lord shall give strength
to His people and the Lord shall give to his
people the blessing of peace"

DRY GOODs DRUMMERs AT. THE South
It would be singular, if our Southern brethren
did not despise us, if they Judge us from some
of the men who go among them, and who, in
order to secure their custom, outdo rebels
themselves in their expression of rebel senti-
ments. In fact, it must be admitted that now
as before the war, the class of Northern men
who go Southward, seeking custom, or design
ing to make permanent stay, are the most
despicable representatives of the North, and
form the most dangerous class Of Southern
citizens.
We shall hail the day with joy when citizens
from Northern States going Southwark shall
fairly represent the people of those States =
Then, and not until then, will lranknesS of
speech and an honest, unhinching purpose be-
come habitual, and do much to secnre that
freedom in the expression of opinion which is
now in the South almost Impossible.

P POET r Y
Written for the Smyrna Times"
To

Oh! the dark and stOrm-swept future
That my heart discerns tonight;
Clouds of grief are rising swiftly,
To envelope all things bright.
Yes! l see proud-souled mortal
Wand'ring life's path, wrapped in gloom,
With no hope of ease or comfort
Till he sinks within the torab.
Loving here an earth-born angel,
With love surprising belief,
Hating all mankind beside her;
This alone is my relief.
Yes, the skies to me grow brighter,
And my sad heart stops its moan,
While thank the God that made me
In my grief I'm all alone!
Shall the curtain ne'er be lifted
That conceals the great "to be 2"
Shall no power cause the mute lips
Speak the love bear to thee?
No, the trump of Fate has sounded;
And l stand with struggling breath,
Waiting but to hear the summons
OF the King of Terrors-Death!
J.F. H.
