The Whine of a Whipped Dog.

The Rgi,tT yesterday labors through
3 column Of weak wishy.washy stuff,
vaguely limiting at frauds in voting as the
explanation Of the defeat sustained By its
faction Thursday. The first thought that
occurs on reading this whine is, that it is
he best argument that could be made in
hVOr Of registry Of voters. There was
never any complaint of fraud, nor any &C.
asiOn for complaint, while We had reg.
iEiy. Thesecoud thought that naturally
follows, is that it is rather pitiful business
for the Register to complain Of illegal vot-
log when it has been for years laboring
to destroy and prohibit the only means by
ThIChitispossibletO prevent such things,
aHd when it has at last succeeded by
securing an absolute constitutional pro-
hibitiOn Of any registry OF voters. The
RguSsr has at last got just what it want

THE TINE TO COME.


This earth's weary waiting time,
The world is full of sorrow,
But soon within n cloudless cline
viii dawn brighter morrow;
For that We watch, for that we wait, r.
IL is the same old story,
And ZONE time through the Futures gate
Will come the promised glory.
Not ours, perehsnce, the bliss Of those lr
Who greet its full appearing,
Yet still triumphant DER all foes
We know that il is nearing;
When truth and right shall grandIy rise,
And yield TO no depressing,
And on all hearts the opening skies
shall shower their richest blessing.
But while we look with eager trust
For every welcome token,
II may not come till "dust to dust"
Has so'er our graves been spoken.
We helped the precious seed to sow,
We bore 1t forth with weeping,
Not ours the harvest-joys 10 know,
Not ours the golden reaping.
Thank God that One can see,
Fen from each small beginning;
Nor counts the life in vain TO be,
That boasts no outward winning.
Without a thought Of human praise,
Wen bravely bear each harden,
Until beyond these mortal days
We clasp the ionged for guerdonl
