Cary's Views of Hayes Chances.

General Sam Cary, the nominee for
Vice President on the Greenback ticket,
arrived here this morning. He speaks at
the market house at P. M. In an inter-
view at his hotel he stated that Hayes
would not get the electoral vote Of a single
Northern State; that he might, on the
Chinese question, get California, but he
would lose New York by 10000. He has
been canvassing in Indiana, Ohio and his
observation is that the Cooper movement
is drawing off from Tilden more votes
than from Hayes, in most localities.-Pdr-

POETRY.
Hopes Season.
BY GEO. MACDONALD.

The sky is smiling over me,
Hath smiled away the frost,
Clothed with young green the patient lea,
With buds the wood embossed.
The trees yet shut not out the sky,
1t sees down to the flowers;
They lift their beauty fearlessly,
They hide in leafy bowers.
This day is yours, sweet birds; sing on;
The cold is all forgot;
Ye had dream, but it is gone;
Pain that is past, is not
Joy that was past, is come again;
And if the summer brings
New care, it is a loving pain,
That broods instead of sings.

A man who cheats in short measure is
a measuretess rogue. If in whisky, then he

measure in wheat, then he is a rogue in
grain.
