A Beautiful Thought.

God knows what keys in the soul-to
touch, in order to draw out it's sweetest
and most perfect harmonies. They may
De the minor strains of sadness and sor-
ow; they may be the loftier notes ofjoy
md gladness. God knows where the
melodies of our nature. are, and what
licipline will call them forth. Some
with plaintive songs must walk in low
y wales of life's road others in loftier
hymns shall sing OF nothing but joy, as
hey tread the mountain tops of life;
,ut they all unite without discord or a
FAR, as the ascending anthem Of loving
and believing hearts finds its way into
The chorus of the redeemed in heaven.

Next Census.


country Of the beginning of each decen-
nial period is an affair of considerable
political Specification, as we'll as OF i'm
portance to the whole country Each I
census, like the wand OF fate, removes
political power from one sections and |
bestows it upon another. 1t was not so
much the election of Lincoln, as the fact |
of the census of 1860, that hurried the |
madmeu Of the South into rebellion. in |
an attempt to retain in some way, gov
eminent influence in the land. They |
were not willing their section should
keep step to the music of progress and |
hence they sought to wrench the States
they could control from their true anl
natural relations to the nation of which
they were inseparably a part. The
census of 1870 will make revela-
tions quite startling to the men who
manage politics, and assume to dictate
the leading measures Of the two parties
The New York World indulge in the
following speculasions in regard to the
future: 8
In questions purely financial the
West and South are natural allies-the
chief industry of both sections being ag
riculture-and the influence Of the Sou tn
in national politics has been practi cal
ly abolished since the census of 1860.
But during the next decade, the south
will be in the Union with increased
power. The South will have an in
creased representation in Congress in
consequence of abolition Of slavery,
which will cause fve-fifths of the color
ed population to be counted, instead of
three>ffths as under the last census
The weight of the South in national
councils will thus be increased; and
from similarity ofsinterests,n the South
will reinforce the West, and their joint
influence will operate as unit. But
the West will take the lead, and the in.
crease Of it's Representatives will enable
it to dictate the politics of the nation.
After the next census the West cannot
be successfully resisted; and all specu-
lations respecting the future course of
| politics will go widely astray, unless
t they are based on correct estimate Of
the tendencies Of Western opinion.
r The West is the child of the East, and
| in opinion and interest there will be no
essential antagonism between the sec
tions. But the West will join hands
with the the more Intelligent and pro-
| gressive men Of tue East, as the most
enCerprising only find their way to the
W est. The West carried the church and
school house as well as hearty love
of honesty and freedom. The West
cherish schools, colleges, manufactures
and a liberal and progressive spirit as
regards public improv ements. Negro
phobia, reputation, insane theories O
finance, in short all the humbugs inven
ted by partisan demagogues, have te
run too severe gauntlet of criticism t
succeed among the men of the West
The influences which have blighted thu
progress of the South have no existence
ia the West, so we may hail the censu:
