4 Song for the Day.

There was lately firm known as Seymour &
Blair
Their doors are now closed and the sign is not
there;
The assets are assigned to one Grant and his
heirs.
Who is now winding up the poor bankrupts'
affairs.
The demoralizei partners have gone to the dogs,
And are mired to the chin in the blacklist of
boys;
And ali the effects they are able to show,
Are an elephant (sick) and cock that won't
crow.
They've bursted their breeches and pawned their
last shirt;
Their machine Is played out and refuses to
squirt.
They're as poor as the last run of last Summers
shad,
And have got the blind-staggers and belly-ache
bad.
Democratic potatoes this season are small,
With but few in "a hill, and in some none at
all;
While the furnishing party are around with tin
kettles.
In search Of some one who will furnish cold
vituas.
But az for the elephant-where can they tie
him
For even our wide-awake Snowman won't buy
him
Skin him, boys, skin him, in Barnum's best
manner,
And send the green hide to Ulysses the Tanner.

ARCHBISHOP MANNING on THE TEMPERANCE
QUEsuox.-The Catholic Archbishop of England
made very important and impressive speech
before the United Kingdom Alliance of Great
Britain, at its annual meeting in Manchester, on
the 18th instant The Archbishop said that last
year he felt that he could not 60 the length
which he was prepared to go now; though he
said last year, and now repeated, that if no
other means could be found of extirpating the
gigantic evils of drunkenness. a Maine law
should be Immediately passed. But for the pre-
sent he advocated the d" permissivc Bill. - which
proposes to give electors the right to say whether
they would have liquor selling among them j.

Tie address OF Judge Poland IN Representa-
tiFes Hall, last evening, attracted very large
and intelligent audience, though the Hall was
not uneomtortably crowded. The Judge spoke
for two hours in relation to the pending issues Of
the Presidential canvass; and dwelt at much
length upon the financial question. Though the
sen',n.cats and ideas embodied in his speech were
no, ltogothcr new-having been fully discussed
by pgbiic speakers and the press since the open
ing If the campaign, yet the manner in which he
presented them, with the apt introduction of IN
c.ient and aneciote, both interested and IN
structed his auditors.
The arguments before the Railroad Committee
in the Bennington and Rutland railroad exten-
sion case viii be commenced this evening. It is
expected that the opening argument for TIE ap-
plic.nis viii be made u c. c. Dewey. Esq.

the fate Of the bill introduced in the House some
ten days since, proposing to withdraw the public
money from such districts as should venture to

mended by the State Board of Education. The
Committee On Education reported that the bill
ought not 70 pass, and the House, very wisely in

OUTRAGEs IN LOUIsIANA.-General Hatch, the
Assistant Commissioner Of the Freedmen's Bu-
reau for louisiana has forwarded special
report to the War Office showing that during
the year ending Oct. lst, 1868, there were Off
cially reported to him one hundred and sixty-six
persons as killed, and two hundred and twenty
five assaulted and otherwise maltreated in the
State. This horrible list is made out in detail
giving the names and residences of the persons
murdered or assaulted, as well as Of the parties
committing the outrages, whenever they could
be ascertained, and also noting the action of the
civil authorities. 1t appears that three-fourths
Of the number killed or outraged were blacks,
and that their assailants were, in most cases,
whites. In large proportion of the cases, the
civil authorities took no action whatever, and in
many more they took none until the guilty par
ties lad been arrested by the military. General
Hatch says that the list does not include the
names Of the persons abused or slaughtered in
the riots at Brashear, Opelousas, New Orleans,
md other points, and he is certain that in the
country many more murders were committed Of
which he never received official notice.
