Lost.

The moon comes out and glimmers,
She stars like diamonds CLEAN.
And long. green boughs are waving
Der pleasant mountain stream.
And my thoughts travel backwards,
Into the long dead years,
And your face comes before me,
Seen through mist of tears.
We met--we loved--we parted;
The story ever new
We lived-we hoped-we waited
And so the long years grew.
A vast sea rolls between us,
A gulf that time has made;
New habits grow upon us,
Old beauties faint and fade.
Take one last look behind you,
Into the vale of years;
Does my face come before you,
Seen through a mist of tearsf

1t is scarcely necessary to state that an
essential element, of success, IS the selec-

offices. 1t is greatly to be regretted that
incompetent and unreliable men are often
chosen to gill responsible positions, merely
on account Of their connection with some
political party. With the proofs existing,
and the deplorable consequences of the
past before them, it must be apparent to
every observing mind, such a course isru-
nous to any government. One man alone
can do but little, but where many unite
for either good or evil, much can be ac-
complished. Without boasting of any su.

New Party New Name.

We attach curself to the Democratic
party, simply, because it is the only or
gained conservative force to be found to-
day ready and willing to fight the consti-
t%utional battles of the republic against
the innovations made by Radical fanati-
cism and Red Republican hatred. If
these old croakers will show us any other
organization more effective to maintain
the liberties Of the people, and which is
better able to guard inviolate the funda-
mental laws of a free, republican govern
ment, we will most willingly be among
those who are for abandoning the party
name of Democracy. But there is no 9th.
er organization, and we hardly think there
ever will be, and the wild, singlc-handed
fights thato few are making are calculat-
ed to do no good and may result in great
evil to all. And hence We think that the
gentlemen who proclaim to have such ey-
%tremely liberal ideas would be doing a
better service to the cause of conservatism
and liberality if they would lend their aid
to the concentration Of our forces against
the hydra of Radicalism, instead Of seeking
to SOW. the seeds ofdiscontent with simply
a name Upton Record. " re- g
