THE OLD DODGE.

Just on the eve of the election, the
telegraph informs us that there has
been agreat increased revenue from
the tax on whisky, whereupon the
Alta California h~oastinglv proclaims
No better evidence than this can
be had to prove hal under Grant
the internal tax is faithfully col
lected and paid into the public treas
ury." We think it likely hat it is
the very best evidence that can be
had, and have nc particle of doul t
but that it was manufactured to orc er
for the occasion. After the 4th of
March, when we get to see the books
of the Treasury Department. then
the people will know whether the
whisky tax has been faithfully col
lected and paid into the treasury, and,
also, by what means and for what
purposes the moneys paid into the
treasury have been drawn. Until
then such evidence as the above will
be the best the taxpayers will get in
regard to any matter pertaining to
the public service.

THE PARTING.

And I, in forgiveness and friendship should
part.

Faint sighs of the old love my face would
betray,
Once lavished upon you, it's fast drifting from
you;
'Tis waning and fading and passi g away.
Zen now, while the wound you inflicted is
paning,
A voice in my heart pleads in soft tones for
you,
Who wavered and faltered; were tickle and

Oh! why were you false when you should
have been trueG

scanned
That friendship you plighted, that friendship
you slighted;
The prize was worth nothing when held in

Although you once feared would be ever
true,
The vows that were spoken 10y you have beon

NJ guile have used, 10: a link haveI severed;
If failings had, they were well known to
you.
Tho love you accepted first craved then

Whatever to Others, was faithful to you,
Your silence is well. Do not proffer reason |;
spare you the pain of that unpleasant
task,
S.y love must not letter pass on, and be better,
Be noble be trusr, Us al shat ask.
And so let the mystery lie just where you left
it;

You changed it; did not. With forgive

The long years viii pass, and my name Be for

But none be so tender Jr faithful III mine.
For what you once wer. shall love you as
ever,
Though what you are now may be nothing

Go-be You to them what wish you TO he.
freely and truly and wholly forgive you-
| No chidings within my sal bosom shall

And, ifI,lung TO you, remember twas through
