The Arctic Expedition !.

The Senate Foreign Relations Com
mittee, after having concluded to report
small outfit for Captain Hall. have now
concluded to report a bill throwing the
responsibility of deciding the claims of
Captain Hall and DR.. Hayes upon the
President. This is much like the Penn
sylvania Justice who, having heard one
side of cause, was perfectly clear as to
it's merits; but, after the argument on
the other side, became so confused that
he could not decide the case. He was
however, less cowardly than the Senate
committee: for instead Of shifting the
responsibility upon some one else, he in
dignantly dismissed the suit.
The evidence, as we have heretofore
given it, is clear that Captain Hall, and
not Doctor Hayes, is the man to command
such an expedition.-- Gin. Times.

THE HoUsEKEEPER,s LAMENT.

THE HOUSEkEEFER'S LA ENTs
Oh! life is a toll, and love is trouble,
And beauty will fade and riches will fee,
And pleasures they dwinde, and prices they double
And nothing is what could wish it to be.
There's too much of worriment goes to a bonnet;
There's too much of ironing goes to a shirt;
There's nothing that pays for the time you waste on it,
There's nothing that lasts but trouble and dirt.
In March it is mud it's slush in December;
The midsummer breezes re loaded with dust;
In fall the leaves litter; in muggy September
The wallpaper rots and the candlesticks rust.
There in the cherries and slugs in the Toses
And ants in the sugar and mice in the pies.
The rubbish of spiders mortal supposes,
And ravishing reaches and damaging flies.
It's sweeping at six, and it's busting at seven;
It's victuals at eight, nd it s dishes at nine
It's potting and pa nning from ten TO eleven
We scarce break fast we plan how to dine.
With grease and with CRIME, from corner to csnter-
Forever at war. and forever alert,
No rest for day, lest the enemy enter
spend m y whole life in a struggle with dirt.

TUE POETRY OF LABOR.

TUE POETRY OF LABOR.
/ love the plQwman's whistle,
The reaper's cheerful song,
The drover's oft-repeated shout,
Squirting his stock along,-
The hustle of the market-lnan
A s he HES him to the town,
The halloo from the top,
As the ripened fruit comes down,
The busy sound of threshers,
As they clean the ripened grain,
The husker's Joke and catch of clee
Meath the moonlight on the plain.
The kind voice of the drayman,
The shepherds gentle cali
These sounds of pleasant industry
| loye-I love them all.
o, there's good in labor,
If we labor but Alright,
That gives vigor to the daytime,
A sweeter sleep at night
A good that bringeth pleasure
Even to the toiling hours
For duty cheers the spirit
AS dew revives the flowers.
Then say not that Jehovah
Gave labor as doom,
Nol-'tis the richest mercy
From the cradle to the tomb;
Then let US still be doing
What'er we find to do
With cheerful, hopeful spirit,
And free hand, strong and true.

wise abused 327 negroes That is nea--

ding Sunday. Rather vigorous worG,
that, but it is more than equalled ii
Tennessee, where the murders alone, are
estimated at one n day, for the SIX
months examined by the Legislative
Committee. Whippings, fobberies,
rapes and burnings are not included
In Louisiana, in the sixty days prece-
ding the late Presidential election, there
were $50 murders committed, neger of
Democrats, invariably of those who voted
the other ticket The entire number Of
Kuklux Democratic demonstrations in
Louisiana, within single quarter is set
down at $500. In Texas, in the 'o1e
single month to initiate Mr. Voorhees)
| of March, 1868, there were murdered
! by the Ku Klux twenty one freedmen
and fifteen white men, and eleven freed
men and seven white men were attacked
with the intent to murder. Fifty-f0ur
murders and attempts in a month is en-
-ergetc, to say the least. In the July
following the number of freedmen actu-
ally murdered was thirty two, and of
white men seven, an advance of two in
Democratic grace in four months. In
the year 1868 there were fue thousand in
dictments for murder pending in the
State, and of all the army of assassns
but one, and he a negro, was punished.
In Alabama there were nine murders in
Green county in two weeks; in Tusca-
loosa four in the saue time. Public OF
ficers have been warned to leave the
State on peril of their lives. Others, as
Judge Charlton, have been heroically
shot from behind tree, as Fletcher
| Freeman was in Sullivan county in this
State At this rate Alabama will show
as brilliant a halo of Democratic glory
as Tennessee or Texas. In Georgia in
niue months there were 336 murders
and attemps at murder.
