A Few Facts for Democrats.

At the presidential election OF 1864 Mr..
Lincoln, by SURPRISING the soldiers vote
cast for Gen Mcclellan, and by throwing
into the western state, several thousand
New England soldiers who voted for him,
(inost of them voting FIVE or six times,
managed to obtain majority on the popu.
lar vote of All PSI.
At last general election, in the same
states the republican majority was only 49,
9l0, including Illinois aud Indiana, which
have not held general election since the
fall of 1866.
In 1868 it requires the chang Of but o.,
456 votes to give TO Horatio Seymour the
electoral votes of the states which we're
carried by Dir Lincoln.
IL the face Of these figures j. not the
election of Seymour and Blair as certain as
is Tomorrow SUP to rise Democrats will

ONLY A DREAM.
By the lake ieyond the meadow,

bf the lake teyond the meadow,
Who're the, lilies blow,
As the young moon dipt and lifted
Her reelected bow, -
Lived and ded a dream Of beauty,
Many years ago.
Something made the milk-white blossoms
Even whiter grow
Something gave the dying sunset
An lHtenser glow,
And enriched the cup Of pleasure,
Filled TO overflow.
Hope was frail, ane Passion feeting-
1t Is often so
Visions born of golden sunsets,
With the sunsets go;
To have loved is to have suffered
MItyrdom below.
By the lake beyond the meadow,
Where the lilies blow,
Oh the glory that there persisted,
None shall ever know
When a human heart was broken,
Many years ago.
