the Delegates named in the list is q
heartfelt one. Would to God that
Lee-than whom, in all that consti-

not, but has gone forever" at

honest masses of The republican party
would awaken more enthusiasm in
New York than would that Of. the
cat's-tail strategist, the Jacobin cam
didate for the presidency. The peo-
pie would rise up to do Lee reverence;
because the purity Of his life, the un
selfshness Of his ambition, the splen-

age with which he defended q wrong
and desperate cause, compel for him
respect and admiration id the heart
Of every man whose pulse beats faster

An Autumn Song.
by MINNIE Fry.

My love, am lonely without thee;
fshOuld not be lonely, know;
But today, with the dfmness Of Autumn,
A shade DER my life seemsto flow.
Come home, o my darling! my darling
Myheart listens faint for thy voice;
The day but seems dim in thine absence,
Not even the sunbeams rejoice
The leaves with their last summers gloss
On them,
Hang dim In the pale Autumn shine,
This eye aces recorded loss on them,
This heart can their sorrow divine.
But only IL fancy, my darling;
Ny love thou art eyer at home;
know that thy presence remaineth
Wherever thy feet seem 10 roam.
Yet I would thou vert coming. my dar-
ling;
Ohi when the day dies in the West,
When the shadows grow deep in the or
chard,
And each bird settles down to its rest.
Shall miss thee. my love, from thy
