LET THEM WEEP.

LET THEM WEEP.
Then let it weep, the little cloudlet; its
pearly tears carry with them no weight of
woe to the home of buds and blossoms ;
its mission surely is of love then let it
be fulfilled. Let the buds be made to
blossom and the blossoms to blush in deep
er beauty, for the dews of heaven shall
sink into their little hearts and awaken in
them new life. The sunbeams, although
such fond companions, have allowed the
dust to settle close upon them and choke
the inner life that made them beautiful.
But this little cloudlet shall shelter, with
its shadow, and battle with its waters, and
spend its all-its tears-in purifying.
Then let it weep. Then let them weep,
the youthful eyes, the weeping shall not
make them lusterless. A sorrow has cast
its shadow on the heart, and the heart
strings tremble slightly; it is well; for
behind this veil of tear>drops Peace is
walking with her gentle sister, Tranquil
ty. The counsellings Of these two shall
come as moonlight to midnight, making
light dark places; the starlight shall be
upon the troubled waters Of the soul, and
in their murmurings shall be heard music,
sounding strangely sweet, because meier
heard till won. a3laaEiek
And the wavelets shall awaken happy
thoughts that slumbered in stiffness that
was cold, and warm and generous feelings
that stirred not as the waters stirred not;
then let them not be stilled. The young
life has known such along day of happi-
ness, such glare of gayety has shown
upon it, that the soul from being held 20
close to SO much light is losing its sweet
life all ANONYMOUSLY. "Rich colors pale
before strong lights" A little shade is
needed to add the richness that we love to
seek and so the heart, from too much
glare and light, is parched; the colors of
life grow pale and wan. But this little
sorrow shall cast its twilight o er the soul,
subdue this wealth of light, give deeper,
richer coloring to the life and character,
and the eyes, though dimmed awhile, shall
look with joy upon its glorious work, its
quickening, and its awakening. Then let
them weep.

CHICAGO, Aug. 5.
The Tibune's Chattanooga special says:
Stokes has determined, unless he receives
over fifty thousand votes at the election
to-day, he shall Immediately proceed to
Nashville, declare himself governor, seize
the capitol and archives, without contest
ing the election before the supreme court.
This action would, of course, be resisted
by Gov. Senter, who would call out the
state militia, and open collision would
ensue. Ia that event, Stokes expects the
general government to interfere in his
