There's Life in the Old Dog.


Don't think because am fallen now,
From success and fortune both,
That intend to give up trying,
Or to pass my days in sloth.
No do but bend beneath the wind,
Like young ash firmly set,
And though faint at times, and sad at times
There is life in the old dog yet
I've fought in the battle of life too long
To care for an open foe;
And I've won before, and I've lost before,
And still can stand blow.
linen why give up in passing storm,
And sink down in the mire and wet2
1 IL hope to the last, try to the last
There IS life in the old dog yet"
I've never yet seen in my path through life
A faiterIng heart succeed; HH
And I've never yet known or heard it said
There is not true help at need.
ave seen men down in the dust sink low,
And I've seen them strive to forget
But always feel, with hope and faith,
"There is life in the old dog yet"
Then, when you are down, get up again,
And dpray for your hea lth and strength,
Remember with these, and firm, true heart,
Success must be yours at length.
I've travelled afar, and my head has been low,
And the sun ofmy life seemed set
But I've risn before, and may rise again
There is life in the old dog yet"

ONE WAR At l. TIME.

There are always a few persons in tho
community engaged in the virtuous but ex-
pensive task Of fighting OYER the last war.
There are some Democrats SO oblivioua OF
the fact Tint The wsr is ended md slavery
dead that they keep batteriug AWAY at the
Abolitionists and voting Tor 3etf. Davis.
There are some Republicans 70 zeaious for
the War that they continue to was:o their
ammunition long after the enemy
lss surrendered or gone to his Ana3
account. 1t is not sttango that
the reseutmenta and prejuaices
eugendcred BY the thirty yeara' stzife over
the slavery question should still linges, and
manifest their existence in national politics
By an occasional fusilade along the dark
ened lines Of fhe old battlefield. We sym-
pathize with this feeling, mud we shall not
change uur course hairs breadth
R regards my question connected
rith slavery snd the rebellion which
can be regarded ns still unsettled. But
when de,nagogues and knAvea seek to play
upon these decaying passions to keep them
selves in places Of public trust, whore no

Tho Democracy Of MinnesotR, like their
brethren In Ohio and Pennsylvania, are very
anxious TO get office, They have be>u out |
in the cold very lang time In Ohio they
talk Of greenhacka and negro suffsago;
in Pennsylvania, their candidate being o
"bloatea bondholder," they iguorc the sub-
ject Of taxing The bonds, and say nothing
ef sscenbackn. They dodge, also, the quoa-
ton of negro suffrage. In Wisconsin, lew
da5s ago, thsy nominated unsn who hAd
supported The war, md they congratulated
the world upon The fact TINT slavery had
been abolished! Tho Minnesota Democracy
hnye just held their convention,
and they, too, have trimmed their
sails with a view OF reaching an an
chorage in Office. Their regular platform
was about ~ meaningless as it could be;
and so M 81 old liner, ono OF the adamau-
tine Democrats who claims to hare nsde
the voyage in the ark with the fathers,-
offered resolution opposing the Fifteenth
Amendment. Then ensued . sceue, tho like
of which had never been seen in Demo-
cratic convention. The resolution WAS op-
posed! Negro suffrage wAs declared to be
sdead issue" and that man wns pro-
claimed an enemy TO his party who would
attempt any longer to refuse political equal-
ity to the negro This, be it remembered,
in Democratic convention This. in sthe
nineteenth century. This, in the North
west This, while Lee, and Bseckinrldge,
and TAalAndigharn. and Psndleton, and
Frank Blair arc living. This, too, without
