The State Journal of yesterday evening
announced that General CANDY had pre-
pared his proclamation, and would issue it
yesterday evening or this morning. As it
did not appear yesterday evening, it may
be looked for this morning.
The Journal further announced that
Governor WELLS rendered his resignation
of his Office several days since, but General
CANDY refused to accept it until the pro-
mitigation of the election returns. Upon
the issuing of the proclamation, however,
the resignation will be accepted and Gil
BERT, C. WALKER appointed Provisional
Governor. So this will be done ut once.
The issuing of TIE PROCLAMATION to-day
or any day this week will, under the law,
convene the Legislature in this city on the
9Th of October, that being the fourth Tues
day after the proclamation. This will
make the day of meeting of the Legislature
three months lacking one day from the day

OUR NEIGHBOR'S DOGS:

"Mary, that next door reighbor has
got two horrid great dogs" ,
The resigned expression with which
aunt Tabilha conveyed this bit of infor,
nation, was laughable in the extreme,
but l skilfuliy concealed all amusement,
and answered, sympathizingly:
"Are you sure, aunt Tabitha =
Yes, I'm sure; the brutes chased me I;
and their master-ill-mannered boor =
absolutely laughed. Mary, they are
awful big, and I'm sure they'll so mad
before the summers out"
The old woman saIk back in her
chair, quite overcome, leaving me TO
mediate on the unpleasant intelligence.
Aunt Tabitha was an old maid, who, un,
like the generality of this much abused
class, fancied no kinds Of animals. Cats
and parrots were here abomination; but
dogs. Betsy Trotwood'S aversion to
donkeys merged into & friendship sincere
and lasting, when cohtrasted with Tabi-
tha Harris enmity to the canine race.
"Now, Mary,put on your bonnet (you
know you amt afraid of the c:eatures,
and tell their owner that he must sell the
dogs, or give up that house"
Why, aunt Tabitha, l mildly remon-
strated, not at all liking the idea of car
rying such ridiculous message, "he'll
think I'm a fool! We can't hinder him
from living in his own possessions, be-
sides--'
MARY Harris" she interrupted, por-
tentiously, "why should you care what
that man thiaks Of you? His, opinion
lis nothing! However, I'll tell him my
self; and, remember that you are to re-
pei any advances he may make toward
an acquaintance. Men are bad enough
any way; but men that laugh at old wo-
men are blWteS.'"
Our neighbor, Frank Harding, WAS a
remarkably ine looking man of twenty
five, who had purchased this place, in
stalled needy relative as housekeek er,
and here intended,as incidentally learn
ed to spend lis summer vacations; The
picture OF poor, rheumatic aunt Tabitha
pursued by those two burly quadrupeds,
must have been irresistibly comical; but,
for all that, his stock with her was low,
and with interest ! awaited the result ot
their interview.
NY AUNT Tabiths, what did lie say ?"
| asked, as she seated herself duhiouslv
by the open window.
"Mary Harris, you seem very much
interested in that New York popinjay
For eighteen years I've been both father
and mother to you, and bear in mind,
now, that desire implicit obedience
You are not to notice this man in any

cerning the success Of Ler effort, but the
next morning saw that kind OF com.

obnoxious animals were rnuZzle1.

III j. A u.

This poem was suggested by trad
ton of the ancient Egyptians, that Mu
sic was tue sister Of Religion
To Astrachan in days Of yoge,
A Peri oame from Aidenn's shore;
In dazzling robes she was arrayed;
Upon u golden harp she played,
Aud sweet, celestial music made,
Which drew delighted men to hear,
From east and west; from far and near.
:. Abdallah Khan, among the rest,
tOf Persia's chiefs the wisest, bsst)
+ Came from tho east to hear her song,
And brought his numerous train along;
Entranced, the eager, listening throng,
Caught up each word the Peri sung,
And laughed and wept, both old and young.
"Now what art thou, thou spirit fair.
That singst so soft, 80 sweet, SO cloar2"
''1n Aidenn, Music is my name
From that bright shore to this, came,
Sister and |, your hearts to claim"
"Who is thy sister, heavenly ono?'
Eagerly asked Abdallsh Khan.
Religion is my sister bright
She cometh from the home of light,
To teach to man the joyful way,
To yonder land Of lastius day,
Where danger, darkness, and decay,
Sickness and sorrow never come,
And spirits sing round Allah's throne.
'0f land so fair, man ne'er did dream,
And fancy faints before tho CLEAN,
Which from the countless myriads ahina,
In yonder distant land divine,
Where love and gratitude combine,
To give each spirit perfect JOY,
~ Joy all free from carth's alloy.
my songs make soft the way to heaven,
Whene'er mortal is forgiven,
help his soul in lofty flight
To sing TO God its pure delight,
To bless him for his love, his might,
To give body to the praise
Which glowing from his heart must raise
"Oh, spirit from the glorious Aidenn!
Paradise's lovely maiden
Thou singest of land OF rest,
Where men, in robes of light, are dressed,
Z And sing His praise-forever blest!
FCanst thou and she who is thy mate,
Make better hsr6 mans nournful state!"
Tht Ferrs eyes gavU so1r6r light.
And man near saw more lovely sight,
Than when, with golden plulnage spread,
Z She rose,with glory round her'head,
Andi celestial accents said
''ContentInent is the blessed prize,
Which wings mans spirit for the skies"
She vanished; and !Abdallah Khan,
a wiser sovereign, happier man,
With al his numerous, wealthy train,
Did seek his Orient home again,
And during all his prosperous reign,
Contentment was the lesson taught.

WHEN YOU WE'RE SEVENTEEN,

When the hay was mown, Mary,
In the years long ago,
And while the Western sky was rioa
With sunsets rosy glow,
Then hand in hand close-linked we passe7
The dewy ricks between,
And l was one-and-twsnty, May,
And you were seventeen.
Yeur voice was low and sweet, Mary,
Your wavy hair was brown;
Your cheek was iiks the Wild red rose
That sl.owersa its petals d?wn;
Your EYES Rke the blue seeiwell,
With dewy moisture sheen,
When 1 was one and twenty. May,
And you we're seventeen.
The Spring was in our hearts, Mary,
And all ts-hopes were ours;
And We were children in the fields,
Among the opening flowers.
Ay. Life was like a Summer day
Amid the woodlands green,
For / was one-lnd-t@enty, May,
Aud you we're seventeen.
Tho years have come aud gone, Mary.
With sunshine AMI with shade,
And silvered is the silkeh hair,
That DER Jour shoulders strayed
In many soft and wayward tress--
The fairest ever SEEN
When was one-and-twenty. May,
And you were seyeateeG.
Though gently changing Tine, MARY,
Has touched you in it; flight
Your voice has still the o.I sweet tone,
Your eye the old loye-lighti
And years can mover, never change
The heart YOU gava, I ween,
When was one-and-twenty, May,
And you were seventeen.

BEYOND THE MISSISSIPPI. One OF
the most entertaining books issued from
the press in a long time is Beyond the
Mississippi, From the Great River to
the Great Ocean, Life and Adventures
on the Prairies, Mountains and the Pa
cifc Coast. BY Albert d. Richardson,
author Of " Field, Dungeon and Escape"
Every one who knows anything about
the personnel of American Journalism is
familiar with the name of the author.
He has travelled over and described
more of the continent than any other
newspaper correspondent He has dined
with Speaker Colfax at the Chinese Din
ner in San Francisco, and starved with
Union prisoners in the rebel stockade.
Whether running the Vicksburg batter
les, or crossing the plains secured by
hostile Indians; whether acting as Adj
jutant General of the Kansas Free State
Army, or as Woodworking editor OF
the Tribune, he is always cool, clear
headed, wide-awake-the model of a
journalist and an explorer. The nara
tive covers period from 1857 to 1869,
during large part of which time Mr..
Richardson was roaming over the vast
Western country-sharing in the excite
ments which accompanied the settle
ment of Kansas and its christening as a
free State-and making two trips across
the Great Central Desert, one to New
Mexico, the other extending TO the Pa
cific coast. To those who like to read a
racy and truthful account of the history
that has been growing in the far West
during the past ten most eventfnl years
of this most eventful age, this book will
be most instructive. 1t is by far the best
and most complete history of the great
West ever issued. Its descriptions are
photographically vivid. 1t blends in
formation, pathos, fun and legend with
full, practical and minute accounts of
the farming, mining, trading, railroad
building and other great interests and
resources Of our much talked of, though
heretofore little known, new States and
Territories. 1t is the product of vast la
Dor, in travel and observation, and is des-
tined TO have an extraordinary sale.
Agents wanted see advertisement.
