citizens are taxed, in these hard times,

is love we'll kept:
must bind my hair with the mystic bough,
And gem IL with buds of white, y
And drive this blush from my burning brow,
For somebody II come tonight;
And while his eye shall discern grace
In the braid and the folded flower
He must not find in my tell-tale face
The spell of his wondrous power. - -
I must don the robe which he fondly calls
A cloud Of enchanting light
And sit where the mellow moonlight falls,
FOR somebody II come tonight;
And while the robes and the place shall seem
But the veriest freak Of chance
'Tis sweet TO know that his eye shall beam
With tenderer, happier glance.
Twas thus sang when the years were few
That lay on my girlish head
And all the flowers that in fancy grew
Were tied with golden thread;
And somebody came, and the whispers there
cannot repeat them quite;
But know my soul went up in prayer
And somebody's here tonight.
blush no more at the whispered vow, -
Nor sigh in the soft moonlight
Ny robe has a tint Of amber now,
As sit by my anthracite;

Have passed TO the silver gayi
But the love that decked them with flowers then
Is a hOlier love to-day.

Letters from the People,
FROM MARION COUNTY.

BRIAR HILL, MARION Co., W. VA
Editor of the Register: ~
Having determined to spend some
time in perambulating over the rural
districts of West Virginia for my health,
1 thought would just drop few lines
to you to have published in the REGIS
TER, as it is almost the only paper
find in this region. Thiswould bespeak
the citizens political proclivities to be
Democratic, aud by conversing with
them find that such is the case. As
am now on the top of very high hill
which overlooks all extensive region Of
country, and which is densely covered
with blackberry bushes, / thought
would give you the purport oi
a novel idea just communicated
to me by stapnch old Demo
crat. He had been prating to me
the manner of treatment the peo-
pie of this region received from the
hands of The so-called loyal soldiers
during the early period of the late wal
how this, one and that one was shot
like a dog-how this wealthy farmer
was stript of his property, his house
burned and he hunted down like
wolf-how heads of families were
dragged from their homes and murder
ed in the presence of their wives and
children. g 80.
l then changed the subject and in
qnired why so little wheat had been
sown the previous year. He Informed
me that the people were so impoverish,
ed during the war that scarcely one In
twenty was able to buy seed. l then
asked how it was that the fields were so
oyerrun with briars. He said it
seemed as though they were indigen-
GUS to the soil-they were hard to get
rid of. But, said he, l have often
thought they were emblematical of the
New England Puritans. For, said he,
whenever they embrace an idea, how.
ever absurd, they are not content till
Ethey have instilled the same fanatical
notion into the minds of everybody. So
with these briars. They first begin
along our fences and other uncultivated
PORTIONS Oh UUe SOIL, DuI Keep cuCIOdCH'
ing and extending their territory till
they have full and complete possession
of the entire field. 1t seemed to me
that the illustration was quite as true
as novel.
Well, SIR, / find the people, as gen.
eral thing, appreciate the political con-
dition of the country. They groan un.
der the enormous burden of taxes, and
see that the present profligate expendi'
lures of the no-principle party in power
mnst, inevitably, plunge the country in
ifrJtrievable ruin, yet they sit supinely
still. There is kind of stoical indif.
ference about them that makes one
shudder when he considers the magni.

country like the sword of Damocles.

overcome them, and to act with firm
