a LARGE and enthusiastic convention Of
soldiers was held, last week, at Harrisburg.
and presided over by Gen. VIM. NPCand-
less, who commanded the Pennsylvania Re
serves during the rebellion, and the other
officers of the convention, as indeed the
entire assemblage, were composed of gen
tlemcn equally brave and honorable. John
t. Seaman, Esq, of this place, acted as
one OF the Secretaries. The object of the
convention was to indicate to the peopIe
that while office holders pretending to be
soldiers would meet in Pittsburgh in Sen
tember to further the interests of partv.
and to keep open the wounds of the civil
strife, they were not to be hoodwinked bv
such shallow political trick. They had
fought for the country, but they were not
to be made instruments of to further the
schemes of political knaves Sensible, hon
orable and patriotic.

The State election in Maine will take
place on next Monday. A Governor, mem

residential election the State gave Grant

hundreds of Republicans in that state who
are publicly opposed to Grants reelection,
and who will vote for Horace Greeley, if

even hope for the defeat of the Radical

and ending with Oregon in the extreme
west.

BUCKALEw ; PROSTECTs.-SO indignant
are the people of Luzerne county at the
tyranny of the Cameron rule and so i'm
pressed with BuckaICw's honesty and capa-
city that well informed politicians claim
5000 majority against HartranfU in the
county.
northampton, it is confidently predicted
will give Buckalew 4, 900 majority.
Wayne, for several years Il close county,
is put down at 1,SO0 majority against the
ring candidates.
The Carbon Democrat claims that county
for Buckalew by 800 majority.
The Allentown Democrat claims $500
majority for Buckaiew in Lrhigh county
Schuylkill county promises from 9. GGG to
?, 500 for Columbia's statesman.
The majority in Cumberland for Bucka-
lew will reach 200 and may rise to !. SEQ
This county has over 500 Liberal Rcpub-
licans who viii vote for BUckalew and
Greeley.
The usual Radical majority in Lancaster
county viii be reduced to almost nothing
In fact the reaction III favor of Buckalew
Is SO large that it would not be surprising
if he carried the county.
Perks county Democrats predict a larger
majority for Buckalcw in the GibIaltcr ~
the State than has ever before been given
to any candidate for Governor or PreSi-
dent. Look out for between 1000 and
s. 900 against the corrupt ring.
The York county Press is authority for
1900 Democratic majority in that county
in October.
Bucks county can safely be put down
for round thousand for BUckalew. This
il no exageration. There are over thirty
Liberal Republicans in Doylcstown bor-
ough alone. and the dissatisfaction among
the Republicans is even more widespread
throughout the county than it is there.
Buckingham, one of the Republican strong
holds, threatens to completely turn the
tables on the ring next Fail. Look out for
q ''stunner'' from glorious old Bucks in
October and November.
In every county of the State evidences

"MY BABf.o
by Mrs. Maud Humphrey.

How loved her, the dear little darling,
AS she nestled close dow. by my side;
How folded her clcse.to nay bosom,
The light of my life and my pride.
How l smoethed out her ,rcsscs and blessed
her;
Ave, blese d cen the hour and the even
That gave her, dear JOY OF our household,
And seemed only lent us Of Heaven.
Oft in babyhood watched her tesr eyer,
When sadly sang, filling with tears;
Then IN joy how her blue eyes danced love
light
All banished her half growing fears.
Then her baby -hands-toying and tangling
My own locks-her wee, tiny hands
To fasten, and pull, and dance, and delight,
Then sever dissolublc bands.
But the dear joy that came as sunlight.
Is gone like the beautiful past;
The dream of an exquisite moment
Was earthly and, time-like, it past
1t past, and the memery only,
Of that blessed darling, for me
Is left; yet know where to find her.
When shackles from earth set me free.
l know in Immanuel's bosom
My lamb will betreasured and dear;
A gem in his diadem ever,
To sparkle and radia;c there.
o, rapturous thought! how it fills me
To know in the regions Of bliss,
Sweet cherub, dear EDITH, is reigning;
thank God, and praise Him for this.
On the chores Of the glorious Forever
I know I will find her again;
When "life's fitful fever" is over,
'Scaped free from its pleasures and pain
will clasp her once more to my bosom;
Echo, praises, thro' Heavens grand dome
Give her back, precious gem, to my Saviour
Blcst with Jesus, forever at home!

As ever you saw two stumps,
And no Phrenologist could find

And killed him-as it should.
