TIE MINERS LAMENT.

Had danced jig with Bnelzebuh,
There stood beneath the pale moonlight
miner grim, with vsage long,
Who Sexed he drowsy ear OF night
With dreadtui rhyme and dismal song.
He sang ''I have no harp or lutte
To sound the stern decree OF fate;
/ once possessed Il two holed dute,
But that sold TO raise stake.
Then wake by strains, my wild tiu-pan,
Alright the crickets from their iairs,
Make wood nd mountain ring again,
And terrify the grizzly bears.
Ny heart is on distant shore,
Ny gentle love is far away,
She dreams not thar my cIothes are tore
And all hrsmsared with di ty clay;
She little knows how much OF late,
Amid these dark and dismal scenes
I've Struggled with Al adverse fate,
Aud lived, 1T me on pork and bcans.
"Oh that @ bean would u. yer grow,
To aing u shadow DER my heart
Ny tears of griet are hard To flow
But food like this must make them start
The good old times have passed away,
And all things now are strange new,
al save my shirt ano irowst r. gray,
Three 8 oekings anC one cow-hd, shoe
"Oh, give me back ihe days of yore.
And ali those bright tho fading scenes
Connected with that happy shore
Where turkeys grow, and CLANS and

Deep III the solemn grave of time.
And lett no trace that man may know,
Save trousers all pat ched up behrpdl
And boots all worn, and shirts all torn,

ments evidently involve two distinct
questions Of policy, first, whether negroes
ought to be made citizens, and, secondly,
whether this and other similar questions
ought to be of State or Of National regula-
ton. The New Departure may concede
the first and reserve the second question.
Let Democracy say that it does not oppose
the decision in favor Of political equality
but objects to the forum that the doc
trine Of NO distinction on account Of races
may be correct; that it 10 not opposed to
the policy of universal suffrage; that in fact
such policy may be q splendid one and
thoroughly Republican,; bnt that 1t favors
leaving the States to work out their own
experiments by the, light of their own ex !:
perience and that of their neighbors, even
though by somewhat devious paths, and
that it 10 not willing to sink their individu-
atty in one dead level, ever of perfection.
That, in word, it objects to centralizing
the control of the suffrage qualification.
If the New Departure means more than
this, we say then, let it depart. The South
can suffer and the Democracy can fight
against defeat awhile longer rather than
concede so vital q point.
