Hon. L. VI. Hall, Speaker Of the Senate,
The election OF Senator Hall to the
Speakership made vacant by the cXpira-
ton of the term of Speaker Fleming, we
cordially agree with the Harrisburg Tel
egrap, is q compliment at once well be-
slowed and rejecting credit on those who
entertained the preference. This is the
second time Senator Hall hes been eleVa-
ted to the same responsible position. In
1861 he was made Speaker without an
opponent in the caucus which nominated
him; and now he is again selected, when
the majority in the Senate il composed Of
some of the very ablest men in the state.
r. is not necessary for ua to refer particu-
Iarlv 10 the talents and services OF Speak
or Hall. He is prominent among the
rising young statesmen Of the State. He
knows what is necessary and has the abil-
ity to accomplish what Is desired for the
welfare Of his fellow citizens, ana we pre-
dict that the day is not far distant when
Louis W. Hall will occupy positions of
higher honor and active influence than
that to which the preference of his friends
has lust elevated him.

The Lonely Heart.
BY HARRY BELMONT.
I am alone, ana o1 alone,
In this wide world Of sin and care;
Ny hopes are all forever gone,
My sorrow I can scarcely bear.
I am alone, yes all alone,
For Love is from me torn away,
And the sprites that once Ger me shone,
Were but " the creatures Of day."
] am alone, yes-sad and lone,
For in the Future dark and drear,
There's nothing but, alone-alone.
But will try my fate to bear.
Turn my hopes to another earth,
Whese all is bright, for Hope is there,
Should be given to aught Of mirth
Twill be but wi tn kind friends to bear,
For in my heart dark Sorrow reigns,
Which only Death will e'er replace
All pleasures are to me but pains,
And will be till run Life's race
Then I will join bright angels songs,
And sing fore'er through endless Time,
For that pure land my spirit longs,
Where alps bright, happy, and sub.
lime.
