Good Night.


God keep You safe, my little love,
All through the night;
Rest close in bis encircling arms
Until the light.
My heart is with you "a kneel TO pray,
Good night God keep you in his care
Away.
Thick shadows creep like silent ghosts
About my head;
lose myself in tender dreams,, -
While overhead y
The moon comes stealing through the
window bare 81.
A silver sickle cleaning mid the stars.
For ], though am far away.
Feel safe aud strong;
To trust yon thus, dear love--and yet
The night is long
l say with sobbing breath the old fond
prayer,
Good night Sweet dreams! God keep
you everywhere

A Curtain Lecture.

What go to the country this summer
Now, that's too absurd. Mr.. g..
To bury the girls in farmhouse.
Where never man they will see.
How can you expect them to marry!
You haven't tue money TO spend
l tell you that's all stuff and nonsense
You'll find it costs most in the end.
When they're left on your hands for a
lifetime.
You'll wish you had listened to me,
And retrcnchcd in somc other direction !;
tell you you will, Mr. Is.
I've told everybody we re going
To Long Branch, and then to the
Springs;
And now, to come down 10 the country
They'll be saying all manner Of things.
Have you thought of the shock to your
credit?
That's worth more than money, you
say;
I hope folks will think IL Is meanness,
And not that you really can't pay.
think you might try TO afford it;
1t don't matter much about me;
But the girls will be SO disappointed
It's cruel! it is, Mr. b.
The Grays have asked julia to Newport !;
/ worked hard enough, am sure,
To get her invited last winter;
Must she write now and say she's too
poor
To buy a respc ctablc OUTFIT
What excuse she can mako / don't
know,
And it will never do to offend them;
Indeed, DIR. b.. she must go!
They move in the very best circles;
It's chance that she oughtn't to miss !;
I'd never have given that party,
II I'd thoue Int it was coming to this.
Don't tell me that coal shares have fallen,
That's the way with you-of upon
stocks. grTt1
Whenever ask for dollar,
Or tell You the girls want new frocks.
Seems to me to be risking your money
In this way is very unwise;
And il you will do it. why don't you
Invest in something that will riser
You know how we all hate the country,
And just because board there is cheap
To ask us to go there this summer!
Mr.. b., believe you're asleep!

SENATOR BLAINE, in his Chicago
speech, thus answers one of the
Greenback arguments against resump.
ton: "The Greenbackers, I know,
are in the habit OF deluding them.
selves and trying to delude others
with the belief that the United States
cannot resume. That there is only
two hundred and five millions of coin,
and three hundred and forty six mil
lions of greenbacks, and how are you
going to redeem three hundred and
forty-six millions of greenbacks with
two hundred and FIVE millions of coin?
Then he braces himself back and
looks as if he had given you poser.
They 60 on the presumption that on
next New Years morning every man
that has greenback, from the lakes
on the north to the gulf on the south,
and from ocean to ocean will be
at the treasury door of Washington
asking for the redemption. Well,
they won't be there, more than half
of them. GGreat laughter There
was-down in the city of Portland-a
hard money Democrat arguing with a
soft money Democrat, and he brought
up this same old difficulty and the old
hard-money Democrat said to him,
"You are an old fool" putting word
before fool. He said to this man
"There are 10000 people in the city
of Portland" and he answers "Yes,''
swell death is liable to fall upon all
sometime or other and each one will
want a coffin. Do you keep 10000
coffins on hand stored away ?"

PROF. r. G. EccLEs spoke in Ian.
caster last Thursday evening. The
weather was bad, Mr.. Eccles was not
much known and the minds of the
people had been drawn to the subject
OF temperance until many thought
there was nothing else worth living
for, and so his audience was small.
The Professors address was the best
lecture on the finances of political
economy ever addressed to Lancas-
ter audience. Villages sometimes in
vite distinguished travellers to tell
them OF the countries they have visit
cd, or great astronomers to tell them
about the heavenly bodies, or protes,
sional biologists to tell them of the
wonders within the notwithstanding
to each man a knowledge OF his par
ticular subject not. common among
the people bat upon which they want
to be enlightened. The people in gen.
eral are out at sea without COMPASS
and in cloudy Weather, on this inan-
oial subject. If they were disposed
to be instructed they should call to
their aid men learned in the schools of
financial science. If they had chosen
a man for this purpose we doubt
whether better one than Prof. Ec.
Giles could have been found. He has
a pleasing address and for a man to
hear him through and then dispute
his conclusions on the great political
issues would make that dispu-
tant appear as ridiculous as if he de-
MED that 4 is the sum of and 2.
Mr.. Eccles, more nearly than any
other person we have met with takes
the position of the HERALD and
shows by irresistible logic and facts
that the aGreenback scheme will be
disastrous only to labor and industry,
to the working man and to business
enterprises and will give to large
capitalists the greatest harvest they
ever had in this country. Mr.. Eccles
should be better introduced than he
is. Being stranger people do not
know whether to go and hear him
or not. We know there are many
gentlemen of the town disappointed
that they did not 60. We can say to
editors and other gentlemen who may
see this that if Mr.. Eccles goes to
their town they will find that any
man whom they press into his audi
ence will afterwards thank them for
il as a favor.

Our European correspondent,
whose letter this week is written
from Belgium, reminds US of the fact
that the ancient villages are walled.
The walls were built when every
man who had property needed de-
fence against rowing OBJ bers r
tramps. In this country at tho pres
cot time many people have been pur-
suaded that the Government owes
them a living, and they are tramp
ing through the country preying up.
on unprotected farmers and villages,
refusing work even at high wages.
II the false notions imbibed by many
of our property holders are not COR
rooted every farmer may find it nec-
essary to make his house q walled or
barricaded tort, or they will have to
withdraw into walled villages as
they did in Belgium. 1t is not well
for farmers at least, to encourage
the notion that if men are idle it is
because the Government has stolen
from them and must issue money to
pay them up.

THE majority of Greenbackers
wero formerly Republicans. By
drawing off from the Republicans in
Congressional Districts in Ohio, In
diana and Iowa they have defeated
six or eight Republican congress-
men. Not one distinctiye Green
hacker has been elected Whoever
rejoices in those victories rejoices in
the victory Of the same Democracy
that existed from 1861 to 1865. They
are ambitions to the majority of the
last Democratic Congress. They
will do not ono whit more for Green
backism than tho last Congress did.
There will not be a single Green
hacker in the next Congress. 1t
will be all Democrat and Republi.
can. Greenback votes are not and
never can be any thing but Demo-
cratic tenders, and will help only 10
pay off southern claims.

An IrrepressibIe Eulogy.

Not many years since, in one of tn,
more prominent towns of Southern
State, a member of the legal frater.
nifty passed from the vexatIons OF this
life to the jurisdiction of the great be-
yond. He was one of those whom
the papers of the day so often describe
as a victim to single vice, which
darkened character otherwise illum.
mated with many virtues, and the ex
istence of which vice those papers u.s.
ually attribute to OVERLOOKING gener-
osity and kindness of heart--in short,
the professional brother had for years
been a more devoted disciple of
Bacchus than a diligent student of
Blackstone and prolonged excuses in
intempera1ce were the immediate
cause of his decease. According to
an honorable custom his lormer asso-
ciates assembled in q bar meeting to
pay tribute of respect to the depart.
ed brother and make preparations to
attend and participate 10. the funeral
services. Remembering, however,
that his taking off was not of such a
nature as to reflect great lustre upon
his mem DRY. it was thought best by
the older and more prudent barristers
present to assemble the meeting, pass
appropriate resolutions, appoint the
requisite number Of pail. bearers, and
then adjourn without any speech ma
king. This, as was to be expected,
could not prove acceptable to half a
score or more younger limbs of the
law who had come duly loaded with
obituary poetry, and were eager to in
form those who knew him best how
great aud good man our deceased
brother was. Among these latter
was General -, who had in the
late ssonpleasantness" conducted him
self with courage and distinction, but
who was believer in the American
institution of always having speech
