CIVIL RIGHTS.
APRIL 8, 1866.

APRIL 8, 1866.
GoD bless our patriot brothers all.
The loyal Nations choice
For not alone the Capitol
Has shouted back their voice;
Our north woods hear the south wind call,
East cries to West, .'Rejoioer'
Fit offerings at the Senate door
From grateful fingers drop
Gods flowers. that drink for rich and poor
The happy sunlight up.
And turn the dew from mead to moor
To jewels in their cup.
Day dawns along our skies at last.
The vigil shadows creep:
From the sullen gloom OF pride and caste
II wakes the ages sleep.
And makes the graves of our buried past
30 bright we may not weep.
What though priestiy hand it be
Would stay the ark of God,
And. midway Ger the lifted sea,
Dash down the parting rod?
The ransomccaa host is marching ,,l.i..s free
Who struggles in the food?
Truth is her own immortal need
Since martyr-days of old,
When the world was sown with hero seed.
For harvest manifold
The word at need. and the nobler deed,
we do not buy with gold.
God bless them, then, the stalwart crew
Tha, man our Ship of State
The storm-wind she will weather through,
Nor reach the harbor late.
The pilots hand may prove untrue
GoD's eye is on her fate
"He who would thrive must rise at Ave."
So says the proverb. though there is NOR
rhyme than reason in it, for, if
He who would thrive must rise at Ave.
it must follow naturally,
He who'd thrive more must rise at four;
and it will insure consequence that,
He who'd still more thriving be
Must leave his bed at turn of three
And who this latter would outdo
Will rouse him at the stroke Of two.
And, by way of climax to all, it shoul
be held good that
He who'd never be outdone,
Must ever rise as soon as one.
But the best illustration would be
Hewho'd flourish best of all,
Should never go to bed at all.

BIRDS OF A FEATHER.

During the war everything which the
rebels believed, was believed by that
portion ofthe Northern Democrats called
Copperheads; and now that.the war is
over, there is perfect accord IN the
sentiments Of the conquered rebels and
their Northern friends, who comprise
the Democratic party of the present
campaign. 1t is morally impossible
for loyal people to coincide in doctrine
with those whom they were so recently
compelled to conquer by force OF arms
and the fact that there is a party in the
loyal States whose platform and objects
are the same as those of the late rebe Is,
shows that the conflict between the
friends and the enemies of the country
is yet to go on throughout the whole
land I'd.

TIE FORCE OF HABIT.

The force of habit, or the ruling pas
sion strong in death, has fine lllustra
ton IN the effort OF the Democrats to
hoop the negro IN their politics, PoH
tics without the negro appears TO them
as "stale, flat ond Improbable" as the
play Of Hamlet with the character #
out. They have solt Of political can.
nibalism, the negro being meat and
drink to them. While the negro Is not
in the platform of the Union party at all,
with the opposition he constitutes their
entire stock, and with them it is Iegro
or nothing
And this is the more remarkable, in
view of the troubles, dislntcgraliops and
defeats that their forcing the subject into
their politics has already entailed upon
them. The effort TO fix negro slavery
OH Kansas was full OF disaster to them,
alternating many OF their best and strong:
est men. Their sympathy with negro
slavery as represented in the rebellion,
covered them with disgrace and defeat,
and drove Off still more of their former
companions and leaders In their poll
tics they have Jared as badly in the ter
vible conflict as their secession friends
Jared in their material interests. And
yet, while the latter resign slavery and
the negro, the Democrats persist in
using the hair Of the dog that bit them
to cure their wounds
1t can be accounted for only by ascrib.
ing it to the force OF habit, Opposition
to the "nagur' has been s, long and
: successfully used with class of the most
faithful adherents Of The party, that abb
stainerce from that old song might be
in danger Of demoralizing even them.
And so abolition and tho negro must
still be the burden cf their political
speech, Com.
