Kentucky Politics.


THERE are two candidates before
the people of Kentucky for the Office
of Clerk of the Court of Appeals
One is the nominee of the First OF
May. Convention, and his election is
advocated by the Louisville Courier.
The other is sustained by the Louis
vile Democrat, and asks support
principally because of his dualifca
tons for the position to which he as
pires. Both claim to be Democrats,
but both are not the same kind of
Democrats. Judge DUyALL, the Lou
isville Curriers' nominee, has been
known, and is still regarded, as an UNI
qualified Secessionist. During the
war, although he did not actually
take up arms in behalf Of the Confed-
eracy, he used all possible pains to let
the world know that his sympathies
were with it, and that he hated and
despised the old Union and Govern
ment as bitterly as any of those who
shouldered their guns and fought for
their destruction. On the other
hand, Col. Boiling was a DOUGLAS
Democrat. He voted for the cham
pion of Popular Sovereignty in 1860,
and when rebellion raised its hand to
strike down the Government he stood
by the old flag, loyal4and truce W
The following correspondence which
we find in the Democrat shows the
Colonies position clearly and satisfac-

the following charming verses
ANNIvERsARY-MAY 8, 1864.
Asvoiee comes with the May time S = E
We know its cadence we'll,
And we hear it in the soft, low chant,
OF daylight's sweet farewell.
The twilight's hush-the starlight's gleam--
I Each watts it to us once again,
And the midnight's star-eyed beauty
Takes up the secret, though broken strain.
The May-time flowers bloom and fade,
And still may bloom and fade again.
Yet each successive aIay-time brings,
The echo of a lost refrain.
We catch again the broken chord,
And strive to weave it in to cong,
Yet all in vain-the broken strain ar
Was never learned by mortal tongue.
Angel lips caught up the measure,
Angel voices chant it there,
HIS g Psalm of Life y in triumph ended,
Oh, grant that ours such fruit may bear! !
When Christ makes up his crown of jewels,
To deck the Heavenly home above,
May all we love be there to greet US,
All safe in that abode of Love.
The May-time then shall last forever,
No shadow dim its beauty bright, t4'
No mounds of earth be there to mock us, =,
NO clondedhearts, no dismal night.
No broken chords, but "Harps" all glorious,
Whose perfectstrains we each shall learn,
Are sweeter for the griefs that meet us,
While still on earth we must sojourn.

The Shafton Coal Works, half mile cast
of Irwin Station, took fire some eight or ten
days age, it is supposed from the furnace
in the mine; from it the fire was conveyed
to the heavy timbcrs used in cribbing, &c.
Every means were employed to cxtinguish
it, but all proved unsuccessful ; SO that they
had to let the mine fill with water in order
20 save it from being totally untitled for
use. The shaft from which the coal is taken
is about one hundred and fifty feet deep and
has been operated very heavily for SONG
eight or ten years; consequently, It will take
Il large volume Of water to ill it. Four
mules which were used in the mines to con-
vcy the coal to the mouth Of the pit. perish

pany employed great many hands, which
will be thrown out Of employment, at least
at these works, for four months, as it will
