POOR FARMER JOHN.

Old Farmer John is sore perplexcd--
Nay, Farmer John is soreIy vexed;
Helabors early, labors late,
Yet ever talks of adverse fate;
For all his tolings scarce suffice,
OF iongedfor lands to pay the price.
Inc summers come, the summers 20,
The spring showers waste the winter snow,
The whole from dawn till close of day
Receiving naught but frowns for pay
HIS good wife tolls; and anxious care
Has faded lip, and cheek, and hair
Acres on acres stretch away
Oh woodland, corn, of wheat and hay;
His cattle roam DER many hill,
His brooklet turns the groaning mill;
Yet stil he sighs and longs for more,
And grumblcs e'er that he is poor.
Four sturdy sons, four daughters fair
Claimed at his hands the fathers care;
He gave them labor without end,
And strove like his their souls to bend
Into the narrowing groove Of thought
Gold to be earned, land to be bought.
Yes, Farmer John is growing poor;
You see it as you pass his door,
His own brown house is small and mean,
The roof is warped by crack and seam;
The leaning bars, the halfhinged door,
Proclaim old John is very poor.
No books, no pictures on the wall;
Carpetess rooms and dreary hall,
Why think it strange such farmers boys
should seek the city's pomp and noise,
Should leathe the very sight of home,
Where naught ofjoy or grace may come?
Why think it strange his poor old wife,
Who coined for him her very life,
Should pause, at last despite his frown,
And lay her weary burden down
In joy, to walk the streets of heaven,
Where naught is sold, but all is given.
60 where you will, search earth around
The poorest man that can be found
Is he who tolls through life to gain
Widest extent Of hill and plain
Forgetting all his SOUPS best needs,
In counting DER his title.deeds.

stood that Stephens owes his defeat mainly to
the fact that he refused to act With the democ.
racy OF his state last fsll in the support OF
Horace Greeley for the presidency. The main
objection urged against Gen. Gordsn 10, that
he va. one Of the abest generals 10 the rebel
army, and that, unlike Longstreet, Orr and
others, he has steadily refused to "sAt dirt"
sisce the war u find grace in the syss Of the
radical party. In short, not being hypocrite
enough to fawn on Grant, he must be N 'un.

SrR&1NESG tC 4 GSAT, t%C.-lt was amusing
to see the Nlsgling azd higgling IN Congress
over eae biN which passed week ago ''Te
quiet title to certain lands in Iowa" Strange
ly enough, the hin was opposed by the virtu-
CUE spectators in Credit Mobilier stock on
the ground that it was a. Gland grant BILL the
pure gentlemen who had voted several mil.
lion acres OF public land to railroads and agri-
cultural college in the last hall dozen years,
revolving at the idea OF granting a few tAous-
and acres to an Iowa railroad that supported
no oUby at Washington. But the bill WAS no
land grant at ell. Ten years ago congress
granted certain land. TO the Mississippi;
and Missouri K. Z. Co. The road was partly
built, and them stopping for want of means,
the company sold out for 100000 to the
Chicago 4 Rock Island Railroad company
which went on and furnished it. In the sale
was embraced, of course, the land granted to
the other company 10y congress, and most OF
this has slncc been sold to actual settlers.
Lately. however certain land spectators fan
cied they had discovered " flaw in the title O!
the Rock Island company, aid threatening
litigation, caused good deal of unsasincss
among sctters upon this land. the bill Which
has just passed congress is intended to remove
thls cloud upon the title.

Not True,

About IS feet Of the dam across the Illinois
river At Ottawa, went out on Tuesday night,
although the river had not risen but Il few in
.nes at The time.-.SdHdD{ch Gazette.
The above and similar items are going the
rounds of the press, to the detrlment OF our
city interests. The story originated in dis
patch thoughtessly worded by an inexperi-
enced reporter to the Chicago Journal, 2 weeks
ago. The dam has not been swept away, as
alleged, nor any part of it of sny consequence.
We have repeatedly published the fact, that a
strip of the comb of the dam, about two feet
thick, was showed off by the ice. The damage
is not great and can be repaired in day or
two, whenever the Ice goes out again IN the
spring.
Our denial gives the facts as they are, but
our exchanges that published the original
salsehood, seem slow about correcting,t. We
used to place innocently considerable Of re-
lance in the statement that truth crushed to
esrth will rise again, "'and you can't ssopher,

The Liquor Law in the Legislature.

We have some startling news from Spring
field. The temperance people had better pre-
pare to 'renble, thunder BOLTS being forged
for them at Springfield The forgers are Geo.
Buckley, short hand writer, and the Hon. Jack
Lnmax, of the House They are drawing a
bill that purports TO be an amendment to the
liquor law, but SO cunnngly is 1t worded, so
deity are certain phrases thrown together, that
they constitute d repeal Of tie obnoxious lao i!
This bill purpor.s to be friendly to the cause
OF compulsory temperance, while striking it a
death blow. The repeating clause is so in
gen,ousy disguised that the friends of the .iq-
uor law, 1t is supposed, will not discover it
un:ll after the adjournment. Not one of the
radical temperance men in the Legislature
knows thing about ire trap that is to be
sprung upon them, except the Is or so who
have been told lin confidence, you know"
Tn" thing CONES to them as lamb, while it
is in reality rayening wolf. Perhaps, il due
"a lie lot taken, It will prove to be, as Buck
ley would say, 'Nothink but blarsted bloody
hass in lions skin, you know" The great
authors of the bill have spent two weeks of
mighty ueata effort on this job, and up to
date have succeeded IN getting eco square
drinks upon it in five Saloons with % more to
60 for. 1t is thought, with prudent manage
uent, this bill viii work" TIL spring, II it
don't bust the saloons.
