The Des Moines Statesman in
something over a column article.
writes up Gov. Merrill, giving briet
history Of his career in life, but end
ing with very significant hints in
favor Of the Governor for the Sena.
torship.
In the same article there are some
spiteful and sarcastic fiings at Judge
Wright. Now the Statesman may be
in earnest in signlfying preference
for the Governor, but in our opinion
Col. Merrill would much rather not
receive praises from such n source
and would by no means consile. LIS
chances enhanced tor the Senatorship
by the Statesman taking up the
cudgel for him. On the other hand
the characteristic democratic fings
at Judge Wright, than whom per-
baps no man in the State has more or
uruer friends, and deservedly so, will
be only calculated coming from such
a source, to give him strength as a
Senatorial candidate.

how sharp q weapon ridicu,e is when

.Our Ottumwa friends have gone
off after another strange enterprise.
After much secret incubation the
bantling is born, and tho first intima-
ton we have Of its existence is the
announcement in blazing capitals
that the "Ottumwa and st. Paul
Railroad is organized" Our friends
there are most too erratic-there IL
too much Quixotic enterprise in
manoeuvering, and we fear they are
too strict followers of that ancient
Spanish Knight. Several months
ago we saw map OF Otlumwa and
its connections, by which we learned
that four or five railroads were about
to centre there. We would like to
see map now. They can do mar
veous things on paper up at Ottum
Wa, albeit they are somewhat croch
ETY.. The energy with which they
rushed into this ST. Paul enterprise
BODIES its completion much earlier
than tho Chicago, OHum,ca and

That ever wore.

And dooded with tears,
When my mother gave me
A box ON the ears;
Then 2 big piece Of pie for the damage she'd
To her dearest, her darling, but good-for-

oh! we'll I remember
They are fresh In my mind
Those gay little trowsers,
All buttoned behind;
How played in the puddle.
And daubed them In dirt
How my grandmother shook me,

hut promised to buy me nice sugar toy,
Ifrd but remember to be good boy.
Oh !well remember
My advent to school
And felt like fool;
How pulled out the paper
From Emily's curls,
For which was planted
On seat with the girls.
Twas punishment fraught with confusion and
But 81 iii I should like to be put there again.
OH well I remember
When older I'd grown,
had to spread clover
As fast as twas mown;
And the finger of fancy
Still points to the churn.
And the hated old griudstone
dreaded to turn,
For churned and turned TIL as weak as q
cat,
And sweat till as wet as a water-soaked rat.
Oh !well remember
The old sorrel mare,
That took me to meeting,
To mill and to fair
rode her a plowing
Till tender and sore
Became my poor "tother,"
And couldn't ride more;
But often times since have heavily sighed
To think OF the horse that daily must ride.
