 And the wave of the woods to the summer

 As 1t bade the fond scenes of my childhood

 Past visions of happiness sparkling and clear; My heart was still warm with mothers embrac-

 My cheek was still wet with fond sisters tear. Like an infants first sleep on the lap oiits mother, Were the days of my childhood, those days are And my sorrows deep throb had struggled to Was that infants wild cry when is first sleep

 Such are the facts in the case, and as we were
 left in charge of the matter by the balance of

EDITOR MMER:-As there has been some discussion among the people, in relation to the attempt of the Republican and Democrat ic Central Committees to make " Peoples Ticket" to be supported at the next election, and us some false reports are in circulation in regard to it, we have thought it proper to make a true statement of the facts in the case. As the pay of members of the Legislature is not sufficient to support them during the session there are but few men, capable oiproperIy rep resenting the people, who would be willing to accept the position. The Democratic Central Committee in view of this fact proposed to

 Pride.

Though pride may show some nobieness, When honor Is is ally, Yet there is such thing on earth As holding heads too high. The sweetest bird builds near the ground, The loyeliest flower springs low, And we must stoop for happiness, If we its worth would know. The humblest being born is great, If true to his degree,- His virtue illustrates his fate, Whatever that may be. Then let us daily learn Co love Simplicity and wortb,
 For not the eagle but the dove Brought peace unto the earth.

PREscoTr, Arizona, May lst, 1868 A J. Shanks, Esq, Chairman Prp sm., Dem ocratic Central Committee.
 ISir-Your communication of this date, informing me that you have been notified of the failure of the Republican Committee to select the names ef persons as the candidates of said Committee, to be supported by Peoples ticket" for the Legislature, st the ensuing election, is just received, and l beg leave to express my surprise that you should have acted in the manner you have, upon so unreliable a source of Information as yours seems to have been, for you must recollect that at the joint meeting of the two Commit tees, it was distinctly agreed by both, that each committee should be allowed to select an equal number of candidates for the Legis- latiye ticket, to be adopted by both Com mittees, as the candidates to be supported by both parties at the coming election, and the time for another meeting of both Committees, to adopt the action of each, fixed for the evening of the eighth of the present month, and am well satisfied that majority of our Committee would be fully prepared to report the names of suitable persons, in accordance with the said arrangement; for, at meeting held last evening, at which nine of the ten members of said Committee were present, a candidate for the Council was elected, and the third man conditionally agreed upon, when the Committee adjourned, subject to the call of the Chairman, to complete the election of the other three candidates. There fore, in view of all the facts in the case, must very respectfully suggest that the pre- mature proceedings taken by your Commit tee would seem to be entirely unwarranted by spirit of good faith.

State Fair.


The annual Vermont State Fair was
held at Burlington last week and was in
many respects fine success, and superb
or to previous exhibitions. The fine herd
OF cattle of Ii. NJ. Arms of Springfield
was on exhibition and attracted much
attention. The show of horses was large,
though in quality perhaps not equal to
some former exhibitions. AS usual the
great majority of the premiums awarded,
were given to those near the place of
holding the Fair. The Burlington Free
Press makes the following summary:
The exhibition was of high order,
the arrangements excellent, the attend
ance numerous beyond precedent, and
the general good order and decorous be-
havior of the throng Of spectators wor-
thy of all praise. But two arrests of in
toxicated or disorderly persons were made
throughout the Fair, and no accident oc-
Cured except the breaking down of
seat in the tent of Prof. Hamilton, the
horse tanner, on Friday, by which one
woman was somewhat injured or fright
ened, we do not know which.
We sum up from the books total of
943 entries, divided as follows: Horses.
80, cattle 16l, sheep 80, swine 10, poul-
try Z, Floral Hall 100, fruits 2S, vegeta-
bles l9, heavy and light machinery 1O5,
maple sugar and honey Is.
The whole number Of entries exceeds
by third the total of any previous Fair
held by the Society.
The receipts of the Fair are
From tickets sold, about $4,000
From menegerie, 500
$4,000
The premiums are, $500
General expenses about 1000
1900
Leaving a surplus of some $1,000
to go into the treasury of the Society"
