For Republicans Only.

The following article appears in the
National Republican, the Republican
Journal Of the largest circulation at tho
national capital. 1t recalls to the remem-
braoce Of the Radicals some of the il
pledges and statements last fall We
hope no Democrat will read it, lest be
think tonilly ofbis opponents. We CON-
mend it to any Republican who is in
danger of thinking more highly Of him-
self than he ought to think:
They (the Rndicols) forget that they
obtained the most important of those vic.
tories by persistent misrepresentation of
the position of the Administration by the
utterance, upon every stump, from Maine
to California, of the most UNANIMOUSLY cruel
falsehoods about the public acts and social
habits of the President, some of the ba
sest of which time and the public records
have already exploded, to the utter con.
steruation OF the evil inventors, and to the
great astonishment aud enlightenment Of
the Intelligent, houest.thinking people OF
the United States.
They forget thas they studiously taught
the people that Andrew johnson was
endeavorlng to obtain a d:spotic sway,
and that on the assembling Of Congress
on the Sd OF this month he would secure
to Senators and Representatives of the ten
unreprcseIed Southern States their seats
with the aid of the Federal bayonets-a
damnable lie which no one of the Radical
newspapers have yet had respect enough
for the nation or themselves t, acknowl-
edge, but which the people have not fur
gotten to observe did mt take place
They forgot that they told the people
that "JohnSoa would resist Congress and
revive the rebellion, ana that the people
now see how they were treated by such
litellers of the President.
They forget that they told the people
that the President did not wait jeff. Da.
Wis tried for treason, and that the people
have now found out by the record that be
has used every effort in his power to bring
the arch traitor to trial, but the Judiciary
would not act.
They forget that they t,ld the people
that Andrew johnson was turning all the
Republicans out Of office aud putting
Copperheads in their places, and that such
statements have been refuted, first by the
hundreds of names of gallant soldiers re-
ceutly sent into the Senate for contirma.
ton, many of whom have the indorse-
ments of the leading Radicals in the
land secondly, by the fact that four-ffths
OF all the employees who held Offices in
the several departments of the govern.
ment when Andrew johnson assumed the
duties Of President, hold their places
now
They forget that in the midst of theil
hate and madness, with unblushiug faces
they told the people that Andrew John.
son was party to the assassi uation o.

gracefully infamous that it has plagued

THE LONG AGO.

o, q wonderful stream is the river of Time,
As it floats through the realm of tears, .
With a faultless rhythm and musical rhyme,
And broader sweep and surge sublime,
As it blends in the ocean Of years.
How the winters are drifting like fakes of snow,
And the summers like birds between,
And the years in the sheaf how they come and
they 20
On the rivers breast, with its ebb and flow,
As its gldes in the shadow and sheen.
There's magical isle up the river of Time,
Where the softest of airs are playing;
There's cloudieSs sky and II tropical Cline
And n song rs sweet us 4 vesper chime,
And the Junes with the roses are straying.
And the name of this isle i. the Long Ago
And we bury our treasures there
There are brows of beauty and bosoms of snow;
There are heaps of dust-O, we loved them so
And there are trinkcts and tresses of hair
There are fragments of songs that nobody sings,
And parts of infants prayers
There's lutte unswept, and a harp without
strings;
There are broken vows and pieces of rings,
And garments our dead used to wear
There are hands that are waved when the fairy
shore
BY the mirage is lifted in air;
And sometimes we hear, through tine turbulent
roar,
Sweet voices we heard in the days gone before,
When the wind down the river is fair.
o remembered for aye be that blessed isle,
All the dav of life till night
When the evening CLOVIS with its beautiful
smile,
And our eyes are closing in slumber awhile
