GOOD NIGHT.

o. sweet, my love. the hour is late;
The moon goes down in silver state,
AS here alone | watch and wait,
Though far from thee, my lips repeat
In whispers low, Good night my sweet.
The house is STILL but DER the gloom
OF stsr,lit gardens, faint with bloom,
! lean out from my darkrned room.
And only hear the roaming breeze
Move softly IN the lilac trees.
Somewhere beneath these gracious ski, S.
My bonnie love dreaming lies,
With slumber brooding in her eyes.
Go seek her, happy winds so free,
And kiss her folded hands cor me.
Across this dome of silent air,
On tiers Of floating ether bear,
To where she sleeps, nay whispered prayer
The day has brought the night forlorn-
God keep thee, little dove, till morn.
The Weekly Washington telegraph., 1871-08-30

lNTHE NIGHT. There comes unto
all Of us feeling Of loneliness; shad-
ow like the night comes across the
threshold, unbidden, and sits an un-
welcome guest at our sides, and repeats
sad stories of the past Which we had
hoped were lost and forgotten, which
lifts the curtain of tie future and
paints gloom and sorrow on the hours
yet to come. The heart strings. swept
by unclean hands, give out song
linked with griefs and cares, and the
sunlight fees from its echoes. and
leaves us in trance. Like SchilIer's
Robber, we realize that the world is
still grand, and yet like him we feel
that we are miserable in all the OUT
stretched suhlimity of creation. We
feel then our unworthiness, and as we
strive in vain to be men and women i'm
the likeness OF our Creator, we grow
less and less, until we fall so IA. be-
low the angels that we lose sight of
them, and fail to catch, as we have
often done before, the very rustic of
their plumage. The Songs we had
heard in other days come back, and
the faces we loved spring up and smile
upon us, but all before lis those around
us, look blank and we feel alone in the
gtandest work of the Master. Whence
the cause of this night upon the soul,
webnow not, but it comes to all of us
at some time. ThankGod for il, for it
makes the sunlight more blessed when
it does come. 1t makes the flowers
bloom with a beauty we Knew not of
before; it strikes the chords with gem
tie touch, and gives a music as wo
dream Of it in our sleep, when we
dream of Heaven.

Do foU DO IT?-Do you support
your county paper? a local newspaper
has now become one Of the prime
necessities of the age; and no county
can expect to prosper without one.
Like the genial rays Of the sun in early
spring time, it fosters and calls into
existence all those institutions neces-
sary to the support, instruction and
well being Of man; indeed, without our
local papers as organs of intercom-
mInication we would remain a perfect
blank spot on this busy little world of
ours to all the balance of mankind
No business can flourish without it :;
no institutions Of learning or charity
can be built up without its assistance
and kindly aid. No political party
can long remain intact without some
means Of intercommunication of ideas;
in fact the machinery of government
itself is dependent upon these local
channels of information. Then give
your county paper a warm, hearty
support; not as charity, but as an
investment which is sure to be returned
in an indirect manner with compound
interest Feel that it is an institution
in which you and the balance of the
community are interested, and do every
thing in your power to make it worthy
the patronage of the public. The in
famous laws in this State, in regard to
the legal printing, is intended to break
down and destroy the Democratic press
by means Of forced contributions from
helpless widows and orphans to venal,
Radical concerns, to traducc, vilify and
insult our people. Then don't with>
hold from your county paper the neccs-
sary support to battle effectualIy with
this insidious party, that is now preying
like vultures upon the body polite,
and plotting your destruction.
