The Girl of the Period.
BY G. NJ. YARNUM.
We sat within o shady nook,
The moon shown brightly down,
My arm encircling round her waist
asked her for my own.
She looked at me with brazen face,
No downcast eyes, or blush,
Blu! with smile she only said:
"Now stop your foolish hush!'
"Oh, do be mine" softly said;
"II love you as my life
I'll toll for you both day and night,
If you will be my wife,
She gave a merry little laugh,
And tossed her wavy curls,
And, pointing to crowd, replied:
eco talk to other girls"
"Nay, nay" I cried, "you must be mine;
81 My greenbacks, bonds and land
Shall all be yours" when, turning round,
She said: q here is my hand"
But hold" said, pcrceiving now

ELECTION
Tuesday November SM.
DecelltiO2l.

Our neighbor of the journal says, that 'the
Radical party could not have conducted the a0ar
longer than one gear 1they hadnot used deception"
This is one of the bright calculations Of Democrat
ic genius. The people-thousands of good DEM
ocrats among them-endorsed the prosecution of
the war to its conclusion. Will Democrats deny
that2 But more. Suppose the editor of the
Journal jog his memory little. We assert and
can prove from the columns of the Journal that
the Democratic party never would have gotten
into power in this State IF they had not used de-
ception" At the close of the war the Democracy
was ashamed of its rebellion--it knew its guilt
and knew the people knew it, and it changed its
name to get the people to place it in power.
Now we charge upon the Democracy that at
no time after the war until it got into power did
it claim to be. the Democratic party. In 1866
when they elected their first ticket they called
themselves the "National Union Party" They
knew that the Union had been saved by the
Union party, while the Democratic party did its
best to destroy it. Deceitful Democracy, look
at yourself in the clothes of the "Ndtional Union
fQTty IN the COLUMNS or tue OOuTHdt, curing
the campaign of 1865. By this decetful trick
you misead honest men who would never dared
to touch you, il you had been honest enough to
own your name. The party that is ashamed Of
its name is unworthy of support. When you
had misguided and deluded others into enthron-
ing you in power in the State, you took off the
mask that hid yonr real self and said non you
have TO swallow Democracy, unadulterated, un-
purified and unworthy as it is. Is this not de-
ception?
In 1866, in the columns of the Journal can be
found the proceedings of the Convention of 1.-THE
National Union PARTY" the National Union
Executive Committee, (of the Democratic party
and the National Union nominations'' all of the
Democratic party, and yet the word Democrat
was not allowed to come within hailing distance
of resolution, convention, candidate or ticket
Conservatives, honest aiders of the Democracy,
this is the cheat that caught you.

This and That.

Great and lamentable complaints are the daily
food of an ante-deluvian Democracy about the
constitutional or an constitutional destructive
ness of the Republican party. They have mar
rated a thousand-and-one instances in which the
precious constitution has been shattered into a
thousand fragments, and scattered ON the wings
Of the wind to the four corners of the earth. If
one disposed to look upon the dark side Of things
should credit one of these stories, he would never
again expect to hear of this self same constitu-
tion be would certainly never expect TO hear of
its redistribution. We have heard of its de-
struction so often from the same reliable ~
source that we have about arrived at the con-
clusion that it possesses one of the properties Of
matter that was taught us, long years ago when
Democracy .fourished in the United States of
America, in the old PHILOSOPHERS, viz: the prop
erty of indestruetibiiay. We have two reasons
for holding this faith concerning our palladium
Of liberty.
The first is that anything that has stood so
many serious attacks of utter destruction, and
is always ready for fresh one-as it is always
receiving a fresh one-isself-evidently indestruc-
tbe. Our second reason is that the Democratic
party exerted its utmost endeavors for four long
years to procure its destruction and signally
failed. Then we think we are justified in the
conclusion that il is indestructible when it can
be afflicted with Democracy and survive the
shock. We know of nothing else that possesses
the capacity to destroy it in so eminent degree
as the Democracy This organization having
failed to accomplish its death, we consider its
lease of life bod as long as good men live TO
administer, Otect, defend and preserve it.
Judge Story in his Commentaries on the
Constitution the ablest work on Jurisprudence
in the nation-said as early as 1912, that the
Constitution was an instrument of infinite capac-
ity when all of its wonderful powers were
brought into complete action and development.
He took the ground that the most beautiful and
useful powers of the government were laying
dormant and only needed the occasion and its
legitimate use 10 bring them into full play. One
Of these dormant powers was the capacity of its
preservation. 1t was self-saving if it only had
the craftsmanship and the heroism to give it full
play.
The hour TO test this, came in the hour of a
Democratic rebellion. Then the boy of 1912
laid off the clothes that he had outgrown, and
walked forth in his might-the giant whose
strength and power enraged the enemies that at
tempted his destruction. The government to-
day has only the development that it would have
had thirty years ago had it not been for the
dwar6sh influences of the Democratic party.
And to-day they are surprised, astonished and
not little vexed at the strength and power that
the government has under the wholesome inhu-
ences Of Republican administrative ability.
