A LESSON IN ITSELF SUBLIME.
A lesson m tsslfsublime,
A lesson worth enfhrining,
Ia this: take no note OF tine,
Save when the sun u shining"
These motto words dial bore,
Aud wisdom never breaches
To human hearts better lore
Than this short sentence tcachss;
As life IL sometimes bright aud iair'
And sometimes dark and lonely,
Let us forget its pain ana care,
And note its bright hours only
There Is no grave on earth's broad ohaf"
But has some bird 10 cheer u
SO hope sings on IN every heart,
Although we may not hear ~
And If to-day the heavy wing
OF sorrow Is depressing,
perchanco Tomorrow sun will bring
The weary heart blessing; 80.
For life is sometimes bright anu lAn'
And sometimes dark and lonely
Then let's forget its toll and care,
And note its bright hours only
We hid the Joyous moments haste,
And then forget their giitteri
We take the cup Of life and taste
No portion but the bitter;
But we should teach our hearts TO deem
Its sweetest drops the strongest
And pleasant hours should ever seem
To finger round US longest; -,
As life is sometimes bright hnd ialr,
And sometimes dark and lonely
Lot us forget It's toll and care,
And note its bright hours only.
The darkest shadows ef the night
ARC lust before the morning;
Then lot us wait the coming hight.
All bodeless phantoms scorning
And while we're passing on the tide
OF Times fast ebbing river,
I,et's pluck the blossoms by its side,
And bless the gracious Giyer;
A. life is sometimes bright and fair.
And sometimes dark and lonely.
We should forget its PAIN anu earo'
And note its bright hours only.

THE POLITICAL WORLD.

HON. GEORGE H. PENDLEToN ON THE SITUATION.
Hon. George H. Pendleton, by invitation of
the Democratic Club of Urbana, Ohio, made a
political address in that city on Thursday
evening last. In the course of his remarks he
said:-
The old political system passed away in 1861,
and another was adopted. Its little finger is
heavier than the whole body of that which it
government? It's Argus eyes seek everywhere
the accumulations of labor and capital, and its
6areen arms arr are eyer grasppg all those Eyes
ments have risen with p9rtentous mien and
overshadow the civil administrations in
doubt that we have a Government-a strong
one-strong in the number of men whom It
can cOnscript-strong in the treasure 1t can
raise by taxatiou-strong In its power to invade
the rights of the states and the liberties of the
citizent-strong in its capacity to override the
Constitution-stronga as Rome was strong, both
east and west, under the Emperors-strong as
France was strong under the Reign ofTerror and
the guillotine-but week as they were weak
when the Goths and Vandals avenged on the
seyen-hllled city the wrongs OF Germans, or
the despairing Robespierre.
After reviewing the political history of the
country for the past six years, he contended
having become revolutionists, will still go on
from one point to another, from the reconstruc-
tion of 1867 to the confscation scheme of Thad-
deus Stevens, and from that to whatever worse
the frenzy of the times may prompt, till the
reacJlOn snail come, ana the people, sated and
wearied. shall drive them from power, even
though 1t be through blood. Continuing he
said:-
see among many good men tendency to
despiT. l see among my own friends disposl-
tion TO give up all for lost. They have lost
hope, they have lost courage-their despond-
ency counsels inaction. The newspapers. the
public speeches. but above all, the private con-
versations, indicate this feeling. Gentlemen,
