A Washington special 10 the 81. Louis
Democrat, yesterday morning, tells the fol-
lowing story of how Gov. Gratz Brown has
been working up his chances in the South,
which, if true, shows that the Governor has
not forgotten all the tricks he learned while
in the regular party, but still understands
how to look out for "number one" The
dispatch says letter from German in Ala
bama, received at Washington, which shows
how the liberal movement is carried forward.
The son Of the late Confederate Gen. Price,
right hand man to Graft Brown, is travelling
in the South in the guise Of commission
merchant, but his real business is to present
letters from leading Democrats North. to
prominen. Democrats South, assuring them
that the Northern Democrats will support
the Cincinnati nominees, and requesting
them to do likewise. He has also creden.
,ials from Liberal Republicans to influence
Republicans in the South to join the move

nent and obnoxious Democrats shall not ap-
pear in the front till after election, and they
are assured they shall then control the ad.
ministration thus to be created. To infu.
ence timid Republicans, Price il announc'
ing that Mr.. Sumner is to enter the canvass

THE ANSWERING CLOCK.
A YEw-YEAR's SONG

NEw-YEAR's SONG.
The clock on the shelf drops musical flowers,
Marking in measure the tuneiul time,
While my love and lived magical hours,
Fer it answers my heart in rhyme,
As in quaintest fashion it seems to say,
" The old, the old, is passing away"
know not, indeed, II my love come. here
For love Of ME, or from guess of his
That without him life is not alfso dear
In places that know how sweet he is;
But the clock on the shelf is quick TO say,
"Old doubt, old doubt, is passing away"
Or why with the restful hours does he come,
Making and singing divinest songs
If his weary heart has not found home,
And his love n name which to me belongsl
DO you ilatter me, clock, when hear you say
"Old grief, old grief, is passing away 7
Last night no stad long for the seasons sake,
Till the Old Year vanished and entered the New;
"For the Old and the New your hand take"
We're his simple words, but they thrilled me
through;
And the clock ill echo them day by day,
As it tells how the Old Year passed away.
'T,wcre much oh much, to be loved by him.
Yet only 10 iope is good, think;
For the greater than good wli not dream,
But happiness unto him will drink
In the cup which the New Year brings to-day,
Fer the New Year too is passing away
And the yeas are to precious too waste in dreams
And love is not love that can selfish grow.
To scatter, not deep, the golden CLEANS
Is the blessed way OF the stars We know
Do you hear how the clock, with the stars is gay
Over solf's low SIN as 1t passes away.
So, whether my love love me or no,
Ill love him still for the dear loves sake
pll love him through veal and better through woe
And never the thread of the chain shall break
Though the clock on the shelf forget to say,
How loves true loving chimes en- for aye!

A Printers Misfortune.

Some years ago, when the writer was
reporter upon an eastern paper, 1t devolv-
ed upon him to write for the same edition
an account of the presentation of gold
headed cane to the Rev. DR.. Nudge, the
clergyman of the place, and the descrip-
tion of patent hog-killing and sausage
machine that had just been put in opera
tion at the factory. Now, what made
DR.. Nudge mad was this The incon-
siderate buccancer who made up the
forms got the two locals mixed up in a
fiightful manner, and when we went to
press, something like this was the appall-
ing resnlt:
"Several of DR.. Mudgc's friends called
upon him yesterday, and after a briet
conversation, the unsuspecting hog was
seized by the hind legs and slid along a
beam, until he reached the hot-water
tank. He explained the object of their
visit, and presented him with very hand.
some gold-headed butcher who grabbed
him by tie tail, swung him round, cut
his throat from ear to ear, and in less than
minute the carcass was in the water
Thereupon he came forward and said there
we're times when the feelings overpower-
ed one, and Tor that reason he would no
attempt to do more than thank those
around him, for the manner in which Sc
huge an animal was cut into so many
fragments was simply astonishing. The
Doctor concluded his remarks, when th'
machine seized him, and in less time thai
it takes to write, the hog was cut int
fragments and worked up into deliciou
sausage. The occasion will long be re
membered by the doctors friends as on
of the most delightful Of their lives. TIL
best pieces can be obtained for fftee
cents a pound, and We are sure tha
those who have sat so long under hi
ministry will rejoice that he has been $
handsomely treated"

With Il warning gesture Doctor White
pushed open the door, and at once the
two gentlemen found themselves in the

Her back was turned towards them,
but she rose at the sound Of their foot

The good ship Starlight had made an
excellent run from China across the Pa
ci6c, and now. as we look down upon her,
the Captain is assuring his two passengers
"a lady and geptcman-that in less
than one day more, the coast of Califor-
MIA would be in sight, and then a very
short interval would elapse ere they should
cast anchor in the great harbor of the
wonderful city of San Francisco.
"But | must leave you now." he add
ed, "and try to catch few hours sleep,

especially when nearing coast. The
breeze is somewhat fresh, Mr.. Shannon,

He had better attempt no such thing, u
laughed the lady, ''for he will certainly

A few days ago an Indian was found
killed near the Red Cloud Agency, Wyo-
ming. 1t was at once concluded by the
tribe to which he belonged that he had fall
en- by the hands Of white men, and they
determined to avenge him by cleaning out
the little party ut the trading post. A
body Of them rode into the Agents yard,
and ons fired his gun, the bullet missing
DR.. Daniels by about two feet. Another
sent shot which whistled close to tie
head of the carpenter, and they were only
prevented from killing one Of the clerks by
the Interference Of friendly brave. The
squa We and children commenced pulling
down, the lodges and moved off, while the
'bucks" commenced arming and mounting
in war style. DR.. Daniels waited as long
G. possible before sending to Fort Laramie
for aid, but finally he WAS compelled to do
SO in form which revealed his apprehen-
sion of the danger: "For Gods sake send
troops. Send all you can, and send them
qnickiy.' At This time the Indians were
working themselves into fury, running to
and fro, and discharging their guns. They
were well armed with pistols and rifles, and
had plenty of ammunition, purchased Of
the half breeds or white men of the coun-
/ try.
At this time it was resolved, if the worst
, came, to set fire to the houses and goods
rather than suffer the Indians to take them
! All the ammunition was struggled in cigar
boxes to the corral, where all the whites
clustered together to make stand, and
where they intended to sell their lives as
dearly as possible. When night fell upon
the scene, it brought no rest to the imper-
lied band, and though guard was detailed
every man was vigilsnt and resoIute,
awaiting, at any oment, an attack
just before daylight the messenger re-
turned with the welcome news that cavalry
and artillery were comirg to tie rescue. A

which was blowing during the night, she
sought safety in Manitowoc Bay. At
