WORDS AND MUSIC BY THE SISTER OF
STEPHEN G. FOSTER.

TIE SONG.
Oh the Bondholder rests in cushioned
chair.
As he sits at his table to dine,
While before him is spread out the dain test
fare,
And the choicest of foreign WINE.
Then he thinks of the wealth that he made
by the war,
For his heart has grown selfish and cold;
And he laughs, and he quaffs, and smokes
cigar,
As he counts up his interest in gold.
CnoErs-Oh a rollicking fellow is he, is he,
And his life passes smoothly away,
And what careth he for you, or nae,
While he has no taxes to pay.
And the Bondholder's wife in her coach
and four,
Knows nothing of labor and care,
As she drives by the suffering taxpayers
door,
Not needing the misery theIe.
The brave crippled soldier she sees not now,
Nor his children so hungry and cold;
While the laboring man by the sweat of his
brow,
But pays up her interest in gold.
CHoRCs-Oh right merry life has she, has
she,
This BOndhOlder's wife so CAV,
And what careth she for YOU, or me,
While they have no taxes to pay.
Then workingmen, all put your hand to the
wheel,
And let Us no longer delay,
For tell you we're only beginning to feel
The taxes Wen have to nav.
Oh! come, crippled soldier, come rally
again,
Till n Union restored we behold;
For our sons have been slain, and your
blood shed in vain,
Till we wipe out this interest in gold.
CHORUs-Then rollicking time will have
we, have we,
And our days will pass smoothly
away,
When our country we see in prosperity
And we have no taxes to pay.
Then, comrades, arouse, for the people nc
more,
Intend to be purchased or sold,
And one kind of money for rich and fol
poor, s.-.
Wen have, be that paper or gold.
Hurrah, boys, hurrah for the burdens sc
light,
In the sweet merry days Of old,
When on Saturday night, by his firesidt
bright,
The poor counts his wages in gold.
CnoRUs-Then rollicking time will have
we, have we,
And our days will pass smoothly
away,
When our country we see IN prosperity
And we have no taxes to pay.

A CANTON HORSE WINS THE RACE.-The
st. Lawrence, horse belonging to John S.
Bhorb, of this city, and r. q. Kimball, of
New York, on Fashion Course, New York
City, won race against a famous trotting
horse the property of Mr. COpp, of New
York, on August 9th, in two straight heats.
The COpp horse had won big reputation as
a trotter against time in the South, especi-
ally in Virginia, and large sums were staked
on him, but the st. Lawrence lead him
from the start, though the st. Lawrence
was taken just from the stable, and was not
in trotting condition.
Our citizens will recollect this horse as
the Brown stallion, which Mr.. Shorb used
to drive at Canton. This horse has always
been considered valuable animal, costing

Our city to-day seems as populous IS usu-
al. notwithstanding the great Mass meet
ng at ,Waynesburg, this county. The pro-
cession that formed here this morning num-
bered but forty vehicles all told, with many
boys and some ladies. There were not over
200 voters in the procession. After the
great blow in the Radical organs of this city
for the past two weeks, the affair might be
called Il fizzle. The procession was made
up Of fine horses and carriages, such as
bondhoIding aristocrats ride in. The plow-
holders and Iaboring men were not present.
The country people were not represented.
Taken all in all it was tame crowd-no
cheers and no enthusiasm. We must not
forget to mention that a tomb stone wagon
brought up the rear through the city, en-
blematical of the demise of Radicalism
about the time the leaves fall.

SEYMOUR AND BLAIR (!
DENIOCRATIC MEETINGS!
Stark County Alive !

Glorious Democratic Evening Meetings
have been held during the past week in this
county, at West Brookfcld, Canal Fulton,
Greentown, Marlborough and Louisville
They were addressed 10y Capt. c. A. Fair
banks, who invariably makes good argu-
mentative matter Of fact speech, which is
always well received.
The meetings ut Canal Fulton and Louis
vile were much larger than evening meet
ings usually, and the best of feeling was
manifest At Fulton the Brass Band was
out and discOursed some excellent music, as
they always 90. Captain Fairbanks speech
lasted about two hours in delivery, and he
was frequently interrupted by applause
At the close, the crowd gave three loud and
hearty cheers for seymour and Blairl The
meeting and the speech were q decided sue
cess.
At Louisville the attendance was large,
and all listened to the able speech of Capt
Fairbanks with wrapt attention. The only
interruption was an occasional round of ap-
plause. As at Fulton, the meeting was in
the open air, and indeed the crowd could
not have been half accommodated in any
ordinary hall or school room. The Louis
vile Martial Band gave us several sOUl-stir-
ring airs prior to the commencement of the
speaking. Capt. +. had been speaking but
a few minutes when martial music was
heard coming into town from the south, and
soon came up procession from Osnaburg,
Of half a dozen wagons crowded with car
nest Democrats. They had heard the Cap
tain the week before, and it had only made
them anxious to hear him again.
After Captain +. had concluded, Mr..
McGregOr was called and held forth for
short time. At the conclusion of his speech,
Mr.. J. GachStte proposed three cheers for
the speakers, which were heartily given,
and three more Tor Seymour and Blair,
which were responded TO gloriously.
Captain Fairbanks cannot remain with us
but few days more, as he is under engage
ment to speak elsewhere. We hope to have
him with us some other day. His labors in
Stark at this time have greatly assisted the
glorious cause.

''They made her grave too cold and damp
For a soul so honest and true

Of opening the grave for one so lovely might
have been averted. Plantation Blters, if
timely used, are sure to rescue the young

SEYMOUR AND BLAIR CLUB.
Flag Presentation.

Owing to the inclemcacy of the weather
Monday evening the 4th Ward club meeting
was postponed until Tuesday evening, when
the Democracy of that gallant Ward assem-
bled in large numbers at their headquarters,
to participate in the presentation Of a splen-
did banner.
When the Club was organized, a large
number of Democrats added their names to
the already large list to the Constitution
The President of the Club, Mr.. John Herbst,
then unfurled the new and beautiful flag,
and made few remarks appropriate to the
occasion. He'then introduced Louis Schie-
fer, Esq, who entertained the Club in a
characteristic and effective speech, which was
loudly applauled. The Club than adjourned
10 meet on Tuesday evening next.
From the activity manifested in the gal
liant 18th, we expect to record a greatly in
creased Democratic majority in October and
November.

A LADY remarkable for the beauty of her
hair remarked in our hearing, the other day,
that she owed to the moderate and constant
use of ''Barett's Hair Restorative" a deep
obligation, for by it she had become locally
famous for the abundance and lusire of her
hair. Using it constantly ourselves we can
add our testimony that as dressing and
restorative combined Barrett's is superior to
any Hair Preparation we have ever used 1t
is reasonable in price, too, costing only one
dollar for large bottle full of the mixture.
