ont difficulty until we came to a small stream which
gave us little trouble, Beyond this a short dis
lance we reached the foot of very high and steep
ridge Old Clemms insisted that if we did not take
it we should not reach the Yellowstone that night;
but the valley to the right looked more inviting
An inexperienced man would have refused the hill
and accepted the valley. Gen. Stanley knew better
He sided with Clemms it was better to spend four
hours in getting the train up to the top than to
trust to the specious valleys which would soon
inextricably involve in. the Bad Lands
The result proved this view oorrect< We had
10 double our pioneers and double our mules on the
wagons But once on the top Of this divide, there
was NO more trouble. After another hours march
we struck beautiful broad plateau, as level as q
floor two or three miles in length, rs many broad,
and stretching nearly to the river. AS we entered
on this broad platead, eyes were gladdened by
beautiful view Of the Yellowstone, gstenmg In the
sunshine with its green relief Of cottonwood thicky
shading It's numerous isles 1t was the most glad
dening sight since we left tho Missouri. We had
marched all day in blistering heat, so extreme
that several men had given out The sum of all
human wants seemed comprised in water and shade
About mile from the river the plateau shelyed OH
into Bad Land, and finding no way down TO the
river we camped on this table, and sent our animals

The cavalry meanwhile bad had very hard

The stream that hurrits by yOn fixed shore
Returns no more;
The wind that dries at morn yon drwy lawn

Those WithPrcd flowers to summers TipCninE

No more shall blow;
These fallen leaves that strrw yun garden bed
For aye are dead.
OF laugh. of Jest. OF luirtll. of pleasure past.
Nothing shall last
ON shore, on sen, on hill, on vale. on plain,
Nauglt shall remain
or all for which poor m0rtalS NainlN mourn,
Nnuglt shall return;
Life hath his hour In heaven and earth beneath,
And so hath death.
Not al the chains that ClAnk in eastern cline
Can fottpr Time;
For alLthc phials in the doctors store
Youth comes no more;
No drug on Ages WTingled cheek rCmrvR

Not all the tears that piOus mournerS shed
Can wake the dead.
For all spring gives. and winter takes again,
We EritVe i'll vain;
Nainly f0r sunshine fled. and Joys gone by,
We heaye the sigh;
Oh. ever on, with uneXhausted breath,

Even with each word we speak a moment flies

If wind. aud wave, and leaf, and sum- and flower
Have each their hour
He walks on ice whose Qallying spirit clings
To earthly things;
And lie alone is wise whose wrll-taught love

this, Roundabout hears that q number
of members of the Republican H0use
voluntarily offered to vaeate their
seats. ..-
Some objections were offered by the
Fusionists TO q portion of the pro-
gramme, but these it is thought will be
overcome in the course Of a day OF

This State would be much better off.
if the class of patriots who do nothing
but loaf around and shrek about her
miseries, would settle down to some
useful occupation, and cease to live at
the expense of her more industrious and
less noisy citizens. Can they not be
induced to desist from a patriotism
which only aggravates the woes which
it bewails? Honest work-liviDg up
