AN OLD HAND,

Blue-veined and wrinkled, knuckly and
brown.
This good old hand is clasping mine -
/ bent above it, and looking down,
l study its aspect line by line.
This hand has clasped thousand hands
That long have known no answering thrill +;
Some have mOuldered in foreign lands
Some in the graveyard on the hill.
Clasped in the mothers hand, in the day
When it was little and soft and white
Mother, who kissed it. and went away,
To rest till the waking in Gods good light.
Clasped in lovers hand. years agone,
Who sailed away and left her in tears
Under Sahara's burning sun.
Its bones have whitened years and years.
Clasped in the hand of goodman true,
Who held it softly, ard fell asleep,
And woke no more. and never knew
How long that impress this would keep.
Clasped so many, so many $50 few,
That still respond to the living will,
Or can answer this pressure so kind and true !!
So many, that lie unmoved and still
Clasped, at last, this hand-my own;
And mine will moulder, too in turn,
Will any clasp it when | am gone?
In vain / study this hand to learn

with the determination to make only thor

Vote! Vote!

One day in the year is none too much
TO rpend for the country; and nothing
short of sickness or death should deter
a vote from going to the polls on the day
of the general elections. 1t is a great
privilege given to us by Our laws, to have
= voice in the election of our rulers; and
it is a positive duty we owe to our Govern
ment, to avail ourselves of this privilege.
It should never be omitted, The most
thorough organization should be made in
every town for the securing of a full vote.
Conveyances should be provided for tax
ing to the place of election those who are
not provided with teams of their own
Men should be selected in every town to
attend to this special duty; and they
should be men who never fail TO perform
thoroughly whatsoever they assume to
do. We must not rest content because
we know our cause is just and right, or
form any confidence that we are strong.
That we are strong there is no doubt;
but It viii require active work to prove it
in satisfactory manner.
We do not expect at this late day,
to make conversions to our part from the
ranks of the opposition, to any great ex-
tent, nor do We need them if the friends
We have do their full duty. We have
enough and to spare if all enroll them
selves and vote. Let the time till cleo
ton be devoted to work-to organization
that shall insure a full vote, and cur tri-
umph shall be both certain and great.

Remember.

Remember that vote for ]. D. Trum
bull is vote for the policy of the I'm
ION party-for the reelection of Senator
Howe.
A vote for Henry Magee is a vote
against the policy of the Union party
against the election Of Senator Howe.
There are no local or personal reasons
which can justify any Union man in not
making his vote harmonic with his con
yictiOns.

A MAGNANIMoUs DARKEY "A friend
tells the following good story, which mer-
its being put on record;
A gentleman of this city, owning a
large plantation on Santee, gave a good
house, formerly the overseers, to q trusty
negro, one of the superintendent Of the
estate. A white family of squatters,
however, held possession of the house,
and the freedman was debarred from
entering on his rights. He went back
to the planter, his late master, and COM
p'ained, when the following dialogue
ensued:
Planter-"But, Pompey, the house is
yours-yOu are the lawful owner-aud
no one has no right to occupy it without
your consent"
Pompey-"Yes, massa, don tole EN-
SO. But he says he won't CO."
Planter-''Well, Pompey, suppose
you go to the Freedmen't Bureau, state
your grievance, and apply for assistance
to have this man elected"

To the Loyal Electors Of Pierce County:
Being satisfied from the means used to o.

have acted with politically for the last twelve
years, to decide at the ballot box on the 9th
of November next, whether j. G. Button OF
