jurisdiction to try them for the offense
There Is large volume of unpublished
history showing in detail the operations
Of these organizations, who were their
aids and abettors, and the connection
they had with the politics Of the day.
Even the twin Bristow organs Of Gin
cinnati are compelled to admit the great
worth and ability Of Senator Morton.
The Commercial says:
Senator Morton had q chance, yester-
/ day, offered by the foolish accusations
made touching his war record by Demo
cratic politicians and editors, who lack
information; and it is fair to remark that
the Senator improved the occasion. The
fact Is. Morton's strong point Is that he
mastered the Sons of Liberty and the
Knights of the Golden Circle, who were
co1spiring in Indiana, and using the
Democratic organization in behalf Of the
Southern Coniederacy. His administra-
ton as Governor of Indiana during the
war, was one filed with gigantic and use
ful labors, and manifested the possession
OF extraordinary executive ability. Ii is
no disparagement to others to say that
Morton's fame as the great war Governor
was earned, and that only John A. An
drew ranks with him. We do not forget
in making this statement the services Of
Tod, or Brough or Curtin, and the rest
who not only did well, but admirably.
Morton, like Stanton and Andrew made
himself q special place. The attack by
the Democrats upon the war record
of Morton, shows the discretion Of the
bull that challenged the locomotive to
single combat, or Of the able old ram that
precipitated himself against a harrow
tooth upon which a ragged hat had been
hung for his provocation.
The Gazette says:
Senator Morton made the Democratic
fur fly yesterday, when he rose to answer
the charge against his integrity while
Governor OF Indiana. The Sons Of Lib
erty, otherwise called Democrats, carried
the State, and refused to let him have
money to equip the troops. He borrow
ed the necessary funds from banks, and
corporations, and the National Govern
ment, and sent the boys in blue to the
field to fight the friends of the Indiana
traitors, and subsequently accounted for
every dollar Of the funds expended. 1t
required a brave man to do that, but
Morton was equal to the occasion. Sub
sequently a loyal legislature was elected,
and MoTton's conduct was indorsed. The
loyal people of the country indorsed il
ALSO and il the defunct and whipped
Sons of Liberty were not fools they
would not seek to bring TO the surface
again that piece of history which is as
disgraceful to them as it is creditable to
the great Indiana war Governor.
Let Oliver P.Morton become President
of the United States, and the murder Of
negroes in the rebel States will be at an
end.

Mr.. Peduncle and his Cow.

Chicago Courier. Mr.. Peduncle went
out to milk the other day. Now, it there
is one thing Mr. Peduncle prides himself
upon, il Is his perfect command OF a COW.
With his bucket on the ground he milks
with both hands, and sings meanwhile,
occasionally bestowing word Of warn
ing upon the COW il she whisks her tail
at him or tries to scratch her back with
her hind foot On this occasion he had
nearly finished and was singing cheerful
ly:

cOwy)
Ten thousand (thunder and borax!

Aud as Mr.. Peduncle raised himself
up from the barn floor and wiped the
milk out oil his ears and nose, he saw up
in the loft the vile OF his bosom with a
long switch in her hand with which she
had been tickling the gentle animal .

Or cease to remember the faces that yet
Beam brightest mid memory's treasures?
Ny childhood was passed I'm thy peaceful do
main,
Mid those whose affections have crowned me,
And though / should never behold thee again,
Thy mem'ry will hover around me.
Thou hast not'a vine but IL clambeTeth DER,
Some seat where I've frequently loitered
There blooms not rose by thine old, oaken

That have not carefully watered.
There is not path or a shady retreat,
In meadow, In orchard, or wildwood,
That bears not q trace of these wandering feet,
Where OF have strayed in my childhood.
And now, tho removed from the time battered
walls,
No place can retain my affection,
But that, which like thee in its silence recalls
some pleasing and fond recollection.
Then give me, o give me, my early loved home;
This heart will acknowledge no other
Put that which retains, in each half-shadOwed
room,
A trace OF my father and mother.

nd though the lines of Moore, given below
re so well known, they will bear repeating
Thou art, o God, the life and light
Ofall this wondrouS world we see;
It's glow by day, its smile by night,
Are but reflections caught from thee!
WheTe'er we turn thy glories shine,
And all things fair and bright are thine.
When day with farewell beam delays,
Among the opening clouds of even,
2 And we can almost think we gaze
Through golden vistas into Heaven;
Those hues that mark the suns decline,
So soft, 80 radiant, Lord, are thine.
When night. with wings OF stormy gloom,
Oershadows all tn earth and skies,
Like some dark beauteous bird whose plume
Is sparkling with a thousand dyes;
That sacred gloom, whose fires divine,
So grand, so countless, Lord, are thine.
When youthful Spring around us brea' hes,
Thy spirit warns her fragrant sigh;
And every flower the Summer wTeathes,
AS born beneath that kindling Cye;
Where'er we turn, thy glories shine,
And all things fair and bright are thine.
