MI OLD STRAW HAT.
NJ ELIZA cooE,


Farewell old friend, we part at lasti
Fruits, flowers, and summers, all are pasti
And when the beech leaves bid adieu,
Nv old straw bat must vspish too.
We've been together many an hour,
In grassy dell and garden bower,
Aud plat and ribbon, scorehsd aud torn,
Proclaim how we'll thou hast been worn.
We've had time, gay, bright and longs
Then let mo sing a grateful song,
Aud " one bay leaf falls 70 me,
III stick il firm aud fast 10 thee
My old straw hat.
Thy tapping shade, and flying strings,
Are worth a thousand olose-tied thiDgs. a.
eau not bear muiIisd ear
When lark aud blackbird whistle near -
And dearly love to meet and seek
The fresh wind with unguarded cheek.
love thy easy-Htung crown,
Thrust lightly on, or slouching down;
Toss'd In tree, thou'It bear no harm;
Flung on the sOd, thoult lose no charm,
Like many a real friend on earth,
Rough usage only proves thy worth
My old straw bat.
The world will gaze on those who wear
Rioh, snowy perrls in raven hair,
And diamonds flashing bravely out,
In chestnut tresses wreathed about
The golden bands NAV twine and twirl
Like shining snakes through each fair curl,
And soft down, with imperial grace,
Nav bend o'er besuty's blushing face
But much | doubt II brows that hear
The jewel'd clasp and plumage rare,
And temples bound with crescent wreath
Are bali as cool as mine beneath
My old straw hat.
Minerals helmet what of thatf
Thou art quite as good my old straw hat,
For | can think, aud muse and dream,
With DOrnpr hraiu md hna
can infnrm my craving soul
How wild bees work, and planets roll
And be all silent, grave and grim,
Beneath the shelter Of thy brim
The cap Of liberty, forsooth
Thou art the thing To me in truth,
For slavish fashion ne'er can break
INTO the green paths where lake
NJ old straw hat.
Nv old straw hat. my Conscience tells
Thou hast been hung with Foliy's bells;
But Folly rings a pleasant chime,
II the rogue will but mind hi time,
And not come jing'ing on the way
When sober minstrels ought to play.
For oft when hearts and eyes are light,
Old wisdom should keep out OF sight.
But NOW the rustic bench is left
The trees Of every leaf bersft-
And merry voices all are still
That welcomed to tbs well known bill

Farewell old friend, thy work is done,
The misty clouds shut out the sun;
The grapes are plucked, the hops are otf,
The woods are stark, and | must duff

FAIR skies we've seen, and we may see
Skies full as fair as those of yore,
Aud then we'll wander forth once more.
Farewell I'LL dropping hSre-bells blow;
And volets stud the worm hedge-roW-
Farewell I'LL daisies deck the plain
Farewell till spring days come again

Equal Rights for All.

,s The golden opportunity of the Republican
Philadelphia Convention is to accept the issue
ignored by the Cincinnati Liberal movement,
and make the Republican party, as hereto
fore, the champion of equal rights and Justice
to all. Liberal leaders like Trumbull and
Schurz and Greeley have sunk their princi-
Piles in the hope of catching the votes of reb-
els and negro haters. Only Senator Sumner
of the opposition to President Grant, remains
true to the cause of the colored men, and he
is doubtless preparing ere this to return to
the regular Republican fold. In the Senate
all the boiling Republicans were most bitter
against his civil rights bill, and it was only
added to the proposition for universal am
nesty by the votes of administration Senators
and that Of Vice President Colfax. The
Tribune regrets that the amnesty bill is to be
saddled with this obnoxious proposition, and
in that regret Mr.. Greeley seals his own de-
feat. He was one of the five or six men, who,
on personal grounds, might have claimed to
divide the vote of the colored people; but his
declaration against their equal rights, rules
him as conclusively from this possibility as il
he had been all his life pro-slayery Demo-
crat. And this is no slight consideration.
There are eight Southern States with as many
hundred thousand of colored voters, where
the latter hold the balance of power, and
their vote must inevitably be given to the
nominee of the Philadelphia Convention.
the enemies of the colored people, cannot
control the vote which he, as a lifelong op.
ponent of slavery, might fairly have claimed.
He will not get it in the South, and, as the
character of the contest becomes better un
derstood, the Republican voters for Creole,
in the North will become more infreQuent than
ever.-Rochestr Express.

We clip the following interesting item frol
the Memphis Republican

We clip the following interesting item from
the Memphis Republican:
An election was held Tuesday last in the
18th Civil District of Shelby county to fill the
vacancy caused by the death of Esquire
Burke. There were many men, good and
true, running for the place. We have heard
the number estimated at about one thousand.
On last Monday night a meeting of the Re-
publicans of the seventh ward was held and
a colored man by the name of j. A. Thomp-
son was nominated, and after much persua-
sion. was induced to make the race, and was
elected by majority of 300 votes over all
competitors. Mr.. T. is cooper by trade,
and has been attentive and devoted to his
business, and has not sought any public posi-
ton; and in this case it may be truthfully
said that the Office sought the man. We
congratulate our people that man was elected
who was no hungry beggar for the place, and
could and would have lived without it, and
who is now and has ever been willing to earn
his bread by his industry and application to
business. He is an unusually intelligent and
worthy man, and we have no doubt but that
he will make himself a useful member OF the
County Court, and shed lustre upon his fel'
low magistrates.

The Vitality of Principle.

Those who are plotting the overthrow OF
the Republican party in revenge for personal
dlsappOintnfents, or qualification Of personal
ambitions, tell us that the Republican party
has accomplished its mission and they would
sing it to everlasting sleep with the lullaby of
its departed greatness. But the Republican
party has not finished its work, for its mis-
sion is never-endng one. Against pow
erful opposition, it has placed the country upon
the only rock of safety, and surrounded the
people with their only sure Safeguards
now it must maintain them intact.
1t was our conviction that Senator Sumner
was in the main correct, when he sought to
cast more secure sheet anchor for the safety
of the rights of all citizens; and we are quite
certain that it will not do to hoist those we
have already sunk, as the Greeleyites propose
to do. We believe in the policy Of universal
and absolute amnesty--we believe even more
in the duty Of universal and absolute security
of all common rights. And we would have
the Republican party, when it shall meet in
convention, declare the sacred inviOlability
of the latter, pledging the power of the ma
ton thereto, and then extend the former
freely and generously. Thus we would Sc
cure absolute equality between the late slave
and his former master, between the eX-rebel
and the freedman and we would throw
around both of them the amplest protection
of the national arm. Cincinnati imperils the
rights of the freedmen by committing them
to the exclusive custody of local authorities
and in asserting thereto Greeley has agreed
to place in jeopardy the dearest privileges of
the colored race. The Republican party can
not do this. 1t must maintain the rights of
the freedmen, and restore to rebels their for
feited privileges. Senator Sumner says he
will not act with any party that will not ac
knowledge the principle for which he has so
strenuOusly commended. Philadelphia should
do this, heartily and sincerely, and Sumner
should be made to feel that while he may be
differed with at times, he is not to be unne-
cessarily disgraced. He made war upon the
Administration, it is true and the bitterness
which arose may not be allayed, easily. But
we hope it may be.-Rochester DemoclM.
