DIR. SIS FIRST DISSECTION.

At the time when the incident am
about to relate occurred, the grave, dig
nifed physician, SO we'll known to the
upper class New York public as DR.. s.,
was somewhat hair-b Drained medical
student, living in one room on the Sec
ond floor of house in secluded street
equally devoted to his pipe and his pro-
fession, and contriving to combine very
fast living with very hard work.
Dick s., as we called him then,
was in the last year of his studies, when
he received letter from an old school
chum who had graduated at Oxford, in
forming him Of the glorious fact that
he was "double first and inviting
him to join in a jollifcation" in honor
of the event. The jollifcation lasted
two days, and on the third Dick returned
to town in company with two fellow stu
dents, in so happy frame of mind that
he found it impossible to resist an invi-
tation to one bumper at parting in their
rooms. The one bumper was frequent
ly repeated, after which ceremony the
two friends determined to see Dick home
which they did in the smallest hours,
soothing the nocturnal slumbers of
their neighbors with melodious an
nouncements that they wouldn't go
home "till daylight did appear" Un-
der these circumstances it is not won
derful that Dicks hand was rather un-
steady, and that he experienced slight
difficulty in finding the hole in which to
insert his latch-key. To his astonish-
ment, however, the door suddenly open
ed, and he was half blinded by the fash,
right in his eyes, of bulls eye lantern,
behind which he dimly discerned the
majestic figure of grave looking po-
liceman, by whose side his landlord, a
little tailor, stood shivering in very
uudigni6ed manner.
"What's the row, Scissors?" said

81 NEVER CAN FORGET THEE" ]"

FoRGET thee no-let stars forget to shine,
Let eagles fail through azure skies to soar
Let dark blue seas IN storms forget to roar
Or ivy frail its tendrils cease to twine
Around the oak; but thy loved image still
Within my heart an amaranth shall bloom,
Whose cup no sun may gird OF dew-drops fill
Yet deathless as the soul that scorns the
tomb!
Thy looks, thy words, each kiss and smile
of light,
Like precious gems orjewelled caskets rare,
In Memory's vaults are hid from human sight,
And oft she'll count them Ger from yea1
tc year.
As pale sweet nuns their rosaries at prayer,
Or misers count their golden coins at night.
DR.. SELDEN.

WHAT DID WE FIGHT FOR ?
BY HENRY s. OLCOTT,

What did we fight for. Northern men,
Through four sad years of strife;
Only to make triumphant those
Who gave Rebellion lifes
Who won the victors crown. We braves,
Whose blood soaked Southern plains,
Was it for treason that ye died,
Were all your wounds in vain
What did we fight for, orphans dear:
And you, bereaved wives.
Why did the husbands of your love
Give up their precious livess
Were all your sacrifices made
To benefit our foess
To help their cause were breathed your
prayers,
And suffered all your woesl
What did we fight for, wretched slaves,
Oppressed on every hand,
Was it to place your masters whip
More firmly IN his hands
To send the baying bloodhound out
To snuff along your track;
To have the drivers knotted scourge
With blood besmear your back;
To give as concubines once more
The daughters of your race;
To have your weeping wives struck dowr
Like beasts before your face?
What did we fight for, sons of toll,
In shop, and forge, and mill,
Who dignity an honest trade,
Or fertile homesteads till:
Was it to bring yourselves within
The Southern planters scorn;
AS "greasy artisans" to be
His "mud-sills" were you born:
What did we fight for, helpless ones,
Starving in prison pen,
Begging with parched and bloated lips
Of stoney- hearted men
Only one little crust of bread,
For holy Jesus sake;
One cupfull from the abundant brook,
Your raging thirst to slake;
Asking, in vain, blanket thin
To warm yonr shiv'ring forms;
For shelter from the dreadful snow,
The pelting Winter storms:
What did we fight for, men who fell,
In battles laundering tide,
By shot, and shell, and saber stroke,
On plain, on mountain side
Draw near, ye phantoms pale, draw near
And tell US why you fought!
What was the cause you hoped to win,
You hoped your blood had bought:
For what was all our treasure poured
Like water from our hands
For what the blood of myriad men
Incarnadined the land:
I hear the whispering answers come,
From every d-stained sod,
Till merged in one. they thunder like
The awful voice of God:
"These heroes died for FREEDOMS sake;
To save their land adored;
To make home for struggling man
This patriot blood was poured;
To strike the shackles from the slave,
And set the captive free;
To welcome here to equal rights
The oppressed beyond the sea-
To hold the -hool- door open wide;
To break false barriers down,
And make it safe to work and teach
In every Southern town;
To make America so free,
That all the sons of earth
Shall praises give their Maker for
The great Republics BIRTH

born, was healthy, and likely to live.
Dick accompanied the captain to the
steamer, and shook hands with him cor
daily, bidding him "God speed,' as he
went on board. Thereswas something
changed in the expression of his face !;
ard when he waved his hand for the
last time as the vessel got under way,
tears stood in Dicks eyes,
and he involuntarily barred his head and
thanked God in his heart, for he felt
that he had rescued a fellow. creature
out of the depths of misery.

MANIFEST DESTINY Col. Gift, the

him in Heaven, where they don't have

III make General jackson 60 for him

Political Paragraphs.

MY VOlCe IS Stlll lUT WAL. -DldlT.
A standard Democratic work-Blair's
Rhetoric.
The trumpet blast of the Democracy
"A general blare
The gray uniform well becomes Sey-
mour but how does it become Frank
Blair?
The Chicago Times says of Seymour:
"He does not get drunk. He is not
profane man. He never was a political
apostate' But how about the other
man!
Seymour's physicians say he is likely
to become crazy within year. If he
has any hopes of defeating Grant, he is
crazy already.
The two soldiers: "Let the President
disperse the carpet-bag State Govern
ments" 81. P. Blair, Jr. s'Let US
have peace"-U. S. Grant.
Dix to Seymour-"I have troops
enough to take care of the mob, and you
too"
Seymour's "friends" mob hang
ing Legroes to lamp posts.
"Wilt thou p said the Tammany
Convention to Seymour he wilted.
Grants nomination gives general sat-
isfaction. Seymour's universal stupe-
faction.
An appropriate design for Seymour
illumination-a colored orphan asylum
on fire.
Some of the Democratic papers are
trying hard to explain away why Mr..
Seymour addressed the New York riot
ers as "my friends" But the reason is
plain enough: they aoere his friends.
The Cleveland Herald says Job had
the boils, but he was spared the Blairs.
If he had had them his wife need not
have urged him to curse himself to
death. He would have done it without
her advice.
The Philadelphia Press says the Dem
ocrats have taken care to nominate
candidate for President who was in fa-
vor of the last rebellion against the
Government, and candidate for Vice
President who has pledged himself in
favor of the next rebellion against the
Government.
The San Francisco Call is trying to
prove that the Repudiators are the Re-
publicans.
The Hartford Post says Horatio Sey-
mour is not parent now, nor will he
be apparent after the election.
Horace Greeley says that with Sey-
mour's friends burning negro orphan
asylums, and Blair's friends dispensing
the State Governments of the South, we
are promised lively times in the event of
the election of the Democratic candi-
dates.
There is little curiosity to know
who Frank Blair referred to in his let
ter as carpet baggers." The Syracuse
Journal says: "We presume he meant
the fellows who, two or three years ago,
visited New York with their carpet bags
stuffed with combustible materials, to
burn the. city. He may deny this in
depreciation, because they were all Dem
ocrats, and he will now expect their
votes.
The Albany Argus says it wants "a
return to the rule of old-fashioned De.
mocracy." That's what Hampton, Cobb
Semmes, and the other rebels want.
Democratic campaign motto-"Let
US not employ, in the future, any one,
white or black, who gives his aid to the
Republican party."-Wade Hampton.
General Wallace used the word "nig-
ger" only one hundred and eighty times
in the course of bis recent speech at
Gilroy.
The Butte Record, hitherto a Demo-
cratic paper, has come out strong for
Grant and Colfax.

New York, was represented on the floors OF

patriotism, and not as now, with the jealous
gaze of sectional hatred, and when recital
