# we could read each other. If we
knew the woes and bitterness and phys
seal annoyances of our neighbors, we
ihOuld make allowances for them which
we do not now. We go about masked,
uttering stereotyped sentiments, hiding
our heart pangs and our headaches as
carefully as we can; and yet we wonder
that others do not discover them by in
tuition. We cover our best feelings
from the light-we do not so conduct
our resentiments and our dislike, of
which we are prone to be proud. Life
is a masquerade at whichfew unmask,
even to their very dearest. And
though there is need of much masking,
would to heaven we dared show our
real faces from birth to death, for then
some few, at least, would truly love
each other.

TIE thought that the election. of a
President of the United States might
depend on the action of two negroes,
members of a Republican returning
board, is enough to make the Ameri-
can people repent bitterly the folly of
their ancestors in importing the ne
gro to this country. The negro is
now, has been for years, and ever will
be the convenient tool of the political
and official aspirants, yet the Republl-
can party presist in making rulers OF
this ignorant and half civilized class
of people TO the exclusion of the white
population. Such base and ignohle
policy must inevitably end in uniye>
sal ruin blood-shed and probably the
ACKNOWLEDGMENT of the UniOn.-HGc

1t would be well for the bondholders
of the country to bear this fact in mind
that if the people are swindled out of
their choice for President by the bond
holders party, they will no longer feel
under obligations to pay the public
debt If the administration, by its
shameless fraud upon the people sue
ceeds in proclaimng to the world that
this is q government of swindlers, by
swindlers for the beniiit of swindlers,
the people will take hand in the
game. They have sufierd enough at
the hands of the money power. The
defeat of their will by the false count
of an official proclaimed corrupt Re
turning Board would be the last feath-
er on the camels back. "a fair count
or reputation of the public debt" will
be the cry that will soon go up from
the starving millions who have been
robbed of employment by the grasping
greed of the money mongers!-EuGns'

THERE is an old man residing near
Gridley's Station, California, who fol-
lows the peaceful occupation of sheep
herding. For some time he has been
depositing in the bank the sum of five
dollars per month to the credit of his
dog and a mule, of which he is the for.
tunate possessor, that in case of his
death they would have somthing to live
upon. The other day the dog died, and
the mule is sole heir to the estate. He
is probably the only mule in the United
States with a bank account.

The election is over, and whatever
may be the result, we hope to see the
country settle down quietly, and abide
by the verdict of the majority of the
people expressed at the polls. AL
though we are in great hopes that the
candidates of the Democratic party are
elected, yet if it shall turn out other
wise, the duty of all people, as good cit
liens of common country, is to abide
by the result, and endeavor to add to
its general piosperity.-Er

How THE News WAS RECEIVED
The good news of the election Of
Tilden, which the Times carried to its
readers in the town and vicinity on
Wednesday morning last only whetted
the appetites of the Democracy for more
of the same sort, and when three hours
later the Courier-Journal came in with
its roosters growing and cannon shoot
ing our people were fairly wild with
delight. The coolest inhabitant' never
saw so much interest and joy manifest

of a holiday. The cOlored people who
believed that they were to be sent back

republicans in our midst, for the time
retired. to. private life. When subse-
quent news threw some doubt on the
result, Democratic faces heightened a
shade, though the long days of sus-
pense was, and still is that with fair
count Tildeu is the President elect.
We never saw people so hungry for
news. "What is the latest" has been
heard ten thousand times day since
the first dispatch came in. The tele-
graph offices were beseiged and people
counted the hours until the daily pa
pers came in and then made a rush for
them as in war times. 1t was very
evident that but little business of any
kind would be transacted until the
question was finally settled. For sew,
eral days the news would get better fol
Democracy after night fall, and ther
the streets would resOund with shouts
for Tilden, and small boys who couldn't
wait would start off fire cracker or {
miniature cannon. When the Cincin

with Its big eagle on the wing it threw
spark of life and hope into the "color,

CONVICTION Commonwealth: Two
young gentlemen Of this city, named
Farrell, were foolish enough to go on
the bail bond of that arrant humbug,
Tom Allen, the prize-fghter, for his
appearance at the next term of the
kenton Criminal Court, upon his solmn
assuran &C that he would be present for
trial. 1t was in the sum of three thou
sand dollars, and they are likely to
lose it. A rcquisition for Allen was
70 rwarded by the governor to Chicago
last week, but Allen escaped to Canada,
where he will probably remain for some
time. The sympathy manifested for
the unprincipled bruiser when in jail
in this city, by many respectable peo-
pie, was about rs absurd as anything
that has recently come under our obser-
walton.

Oh! there is an enduring tenderness
in the love of mother to her son that
transcends all other affections of the
heart. 1t is neither to be chilled by
selfshness, nor daunted by danger, nor
weakened by worthlesSness, nor stifled
by ingratitude. She will sacrifice her
comfort to his convenience, she will
surrender every pleasure to his enjoy
ment: she will glory in his fame and
eXult in his prosperity; and, if adver-
sty Overtakes him, he will be dearer to
her by misfortune; and, if disgrase set
ties upon his name, she will love and
cherish him; and if all the world beside
cast him Oft, she will be all the world
to him. Washington Irrilg.

The suspense regarding thc,,election is
working to the serious injury of trade.
Trade needs certain outlook for its
prosperity, for then calculations as to
the future can be made; but when the
nightmare of the possible return of a
President by fraud rests on the coun-
try, business is deranged, and the wisest
merchant is all at sea. Though the
excitement that Immediately followed
election day is pretty well allayed, yet
anxiety regarding the result still pre-
walls in all quarters, and doub. of the
future disturbs enterprise and preoccu-
pies the public mind.
