When Mary wasa lassie.
You'd hardly think that patient face,

That ever bonnet shaded
But when | went through yonder lane,
That looks so siil ana grassy
Those eyes were bright, those checks were fair,
When Mary was lassie.
But many a tender sorrow,
And many patient care,
Have made those burrows on the face
That used to he so fair.
Four times 10 Wonder church-y yard,
Through the lane so still and gmssy,
We've borne and laid away our dead,
Since Mary was a lasse.
And SO you see, I've grown to love

Than all Springs dewy posies
They'll carry us through yundpr lane

The People of the South Nominated
Horace Greeley.

We give holow an extract on this subject from
a speech delivered by II. II. McClune, ESQ,
at Manchester Borough, Saturday evening,
September %, 1872:
The war left her homes in ashes her fair
fields devastated and her stalwart men in their
graves Homes which were once made happy
by the manly presence of fathers, husbands
and sons were then either entirely deserted or
were the ahodes Of carc-worn widows, aged
parents and helpless orphans The winds
which swept across her war-trenched noun
tains, bore upon their wings The drge of her
lamentations The angels of pity carried the
story Of her fluctuations TO one who opened
his manly heart and ''let them come in. -
That man was Horace Greeley, the first prac-
teal friend of the Frustrated Sonlh. Whilst
he sympathized with her, and AT the imminent
peril of his own interests, financially and po-
ljticaly threw himself into the current which
swept over her, others looked upon her with u
covetous eve. Northern adventures and POI
litcal vultuies went down there mud took nd
vantage Of her prostration TO perpetuate her
calAmilies. They went there and by fraud.
bribery mafcasance and gangrenous legisla-
tion, they have chained her TO the car of
financial ruin. They have fastened upon her
millions upon millions of debt the proceeds Of
which they haze leloniously appropriated 10
their own use. 1t was to escape the polluted
grasp Of these monsters, that tho people Of the
South tho, the polticinns) went to Cincinnati
to nominate their frs. and best friend. II
is to secure this that The name Horace Greeley
is cheered down the Shenandoah Valley, across
the Mississippi and echoed back from the
plninS of Texas. The Democratic party nj.
Baltimore Welded TO The demand nj Cincinnati,
and in welding, did one of the nohlest deeds
in the history of political parties. For il not
only needed the appeals Of The suffering South,
but it gained victory over itself.
Gallons indeed must be the heart of that Demo-
crat who does not sympalhize with the South
ern people in this last effort to escape the
ftlon's grasp. Can it he possible that there is
a Democrat in the land who'll fail 10 respond

after the November battle, that it viii shine

The widow Rody, an owner of two white

During the late ''unpleqsantness" a noted
guerilla, named Jeunison, raided down on her
