tacking his native State, Kentucky, in the most
outrageous manner Yesterday, when the reso-
Mckee contested, the usual allowance for ex-
penses IN contesting the case was offered,
Mckee, contrary to all precedent not only OPP
posed the resolution, but attempted to defeat @
is q candidate for Clerk of the House, and 1T is
presumed he wants to make himself prominent
and at the same time commend himself to the
Radicals by abusing Kentucky. The passage
of the bill to- day indicates that two-thirds of
the House are disposed to pardon Democrats
as well as Republicans.
The Sncnkcrshlp Contest.
very careful canvass Of the Sooakership
contest, made without bias towards either can
didate. reveals the following results: The
New England vote is divided between Blaine
and Dawes, ncning slightly in favor of
Dawes. In the Middle States of New York,
New Jersey and Pennsylvania, with their thir-
ty-tive Republican votes, Blaine has an un-
doubted and reliable majority. In the South
ern States q majority go for Blaine, while in
tho West Blaine leads Dawes so decisiyely that
there is practically no contest left between
most coreful attention say that out OF one hun
dred and thirty-tive Republican votes in the
caucus Blaine is certain Of ninety-6ve to one
radical, vigorous and progressive element OF
the party, while the slower and more conserva-
tive element incline to Dawes. But this con-
servative element does not represent third
of the party In Congress.
The Frnnking Privilege.
Tho Postofice Committee has decided upon
making the following amendment to tho bill
OF the House: Abolshing the use of stamps in
the franking system. and equlring the written
autograph OF those entitled to the franking
privilege, except heads of departments and
heads OF bureaus now entitled by law to the
franking privilege, who shall be allowed to
frank all official matter pertaining to their
departments or bureaus by tho use of stamp,
which shall designate tho object for which It
is used, under such regulations as the Post
shall prescribe.

ROMANCE A LA DIEN-AIMFE,

Closo as the stars along tho sky
The flowers were in The mead,
The purple heart. and golden eye,
And oyimson-flming weed
And each one si2h'd as went by
Ard touched nv garment green,
And bade mo wear her on my heart
And take her fo' my Queen
OF Love
And take her for my Queen.
And one in virgin white was drest
With downcast gracious head;
Aud me unveil'd o burning breast
Mid smiles of rosy red;
All rainbow bright, with laughter light,
They flicker'd DER the green.
Each whispering should pluck her there
And take her as my Queen
Of Love
And take her as my Queen.
But sudden at my feet look'd up
A little star-like thing,
Pure odor in pure perfect cup,
That mndo my bosom sing,
Twas no. for size, nor gorgeous dyes,
But her own solf, ween.
Her own sweet self. that ma 70 me stoop
And take her for my Queen
OF Love
And take her for my Queen.
Now oil day long and every day
Her beauty on me grows,
And holds with strCnoer, sweeter sway
1hau Ii y or than rose;
And tlfis oae star outshines by far
All in the eadow green
And SO wear her on my heart
And take her tor my Queen
OF Love
And take her Tor my Queen.

T'ne a sTessment OF the b. d O. z. X. Co
fla Marion County.


To The Editors OF the Intelligencer:
have just been looking over your ar
ticle on the Commissioners assessment
OF the property Of the b. u o. X. r. Co:
of the 9th inst, and fully concur with
you. The people are surprised at the
assessment as reported and consider it
a fragrant outrage upon the tax payers
OF our State, and q betrayal OF the trust
repOsed in those gentlemen by the
authorities of the State. will refer TO a
part Oftheir assessment in Marion coun-
ty, which Is one OF the greatest out
RACES and insults to our people, though
diminutive in it's character, it shows
what they would have done II the prop
erty had been worth more. They as
sessed one house and lot at Fairmont
at six hundred dollars that can be sold
at any day for over twelve hundred.
They assessed a lot of land at the same
place at (S66) SiEty.Si1 dollars, that could
be readily sold for five hundred dollars;
a house and lot at Glover's Gap for three
hundred dollars that heard one OF the
officers OF the road say cost ffteeu hun
dred dollars, besides the ground upon
which it is located, about one acre, per
fectly level. The railroad Company have
house and near one acre of land in the
town of Warrington that is worth If
teen hundred dollars that is rented to
their Supervisor of this division, and
not in any way connected with the rail-
road. This property Is not mentioned
In the Commissioners report at all.
Why this omission of assessment
leave for some one better informed to
explain. In fact, the officials OF the b.
& o. Il. r. Co. are laughing in their
sleeves about the jockey trick they have
played upon the State.

Mr.. OBEY JOHNSON delivered I'm ora
ton at Parkersburg on the Fourth, and
itappears to have been calm, dignified,
patriotic and non-partisan address. 1t
was spoken of in complimentary terms
by the Times, the Republican paper, and
thereupon (Mr. johnson being Demo-
crai) some of the Democratic brothers
began TO suspect and charge him with
having made radical speech-not SO
much from any heresy in the speech
itself as because 1t had been commend
ed by the Times The Gazette Demo
cralic), not being 30 hide>bound, makes
some very sensible comments on this
exhibition of pig-headedness. "It Is
greatly to be deplored," remarks the
G0Eettc, "that men cannot get up and
