THE DREAMER.

Sleep. lovely dreamer thou weary one, sleep;
While guardian angels strict vigil keep.
Thou. hast forgotten the cares of the day,
And in fair dreamland art wandering away
The same rudy glow is on thy fair cheek,
Thy lips gently parted ms if just to speak.
A smile fingers round them SO angelic and
bright.
| know thou art dreaming Of unbounded de
light.
One arm thrown carelessly above thy brow,
Surely some fair one is whispering now;
Driving away care, making thy thoughts
serene,
As on the arm of the sofa thy young head
leans.
I wish. as stand and gaze upon thee,
That bright as those dreams, may thy flu
ture life be.
That no sorrow, or care. Ger thy young
head may creep.
But that thou may be happy, as in thy
blissful sleep.
That prosperous breezes may watt thy
bark on,
Till in hat haven Of rest thy labors are
done,
That t'ur Father may guard thee; from
harm keep thee free,
Is the sincere wish my heart has far thee.
That friends may be true, thy life may be
JOY,
No sorrow 10 mar nor care to alloy,
Then sleep. lovely dreamer thou weary
one. sleep,
While guardian angels strict vigil keep.

DEAR JOURNAL

Guessing i, said to be

is trait OF the women, especially on
steamboats, Around me sit half doz

different gentlemen who are walking
for relief or amusement.
There goes a grave looking man of
about sixty. He wears glasses. and has
but one eye, for which he is the better.
of course. One lady says he is clergy
man, but another says she has her
doubts, since he wears gold bosom studs.
The third declares that he is either a
minister or an insurance agent. Now
that's sad compliment to the insur-
ance agents" says the fourth. "Still
worse to the ministers" exclaims the
fifth And so the jokes go round.
Next comes a tall, fine looking man,
with blue eyes. slim in stature, sporting
a cigar. ~ declare he smokes that
awkwardly," says one, land, though |
never saw a minister smoking cigar
before, | guess he is a minister. -
Ministers says the next lady, "are
Just like other men when they get away
from home, only more 50" "You aye
right" says another, 'and that gentle
man watched MS with great interest
when we played euchre yesterday"
Here | veptured to suggest that l
was quite sure the gentleman 10 qucs
ton might be lawyer, but each pro-
tested that she knew better, and each
Tor u different reason, ne among which
was that his elbows were too sharp.
But the dispute WAS soon terminated
by the sudden appearance of a &c nteel
looking lady who addressed him as
husband" and said dear, is it proper
for you to smoke u cigar" There was
no longer any chance to doubt the ma
ture OF this geutleman's profession.
Another came ID sharp thin vi saged
man. He was rather pale, with a slight
flush OF the cheek. With unanimous
consent he was pronounced to be law
yer. How | WIS disipp ,inted, greatly
fearing that he might be taken for an
editor. But an additional remark from
one of the ladies put this IN ltter beyond
all question, when she said in whis-
per, "his breath smells Of brandy"
(Thank you
But next,--'are they married men,"
All agree that the one eyed gentleman
Is wdower, the minister is married Of
course, or he is clipping with another
mans wife, but the lawyer is single.
And why? There is some popularity

the effect OF Judge Winans' nomination by

sho wn their hand, but IL Is likely he will draw some
votes from the Grant party which would otherwise
nave gone for It, The greatest interest, so FAR as
the Congress nominations are concerned, is felt in
the two districts OF this county. The republicans
made their nominations to-day, selecting Ben
EgglestOn in the First and General Hayes In the
Second district. Hayes Is confessedly strong can
didate, but Eggeston will find arrayed against
him al the hatred which Is felt toward Grant by
the republicans OF his district. The former will
take JOB Stevenson's place under very peculiar
circumstances. Stevenson passed the summer at
Berkeley Springs drinking the waters and saying he
did not seek denomination. This was made an
excuse for dropping him, while the fact that Cover
nor Hayes constantly asserted that he did not want
the nomination was made an excuse for making
MIN candidate. SO far as the result can be FORE
seen both OF these gentlemen will be elected, in
spite OF the disc0ntent with Grant, the liberal re-
publcans and democrats In these districts not
being able to agree upon fusion candidates. In
lew days both parties will have their candidates in
the field all over the State, and then tho work OF
the canvass will begin In earnest; but up to the
present time the apathy Is as thick as London fog.
