with sorrow and Indignation, perceives
the hollowness of rebel and Demo-
cratic professions, and leads the pat
riotic people of Ohio in their initial
effort to rebuke the bulldozers and rifle
clubs, and drive them from political
power. We should no more think of
opposing him now, or Withholding
from him our earnest support, than
we should have opposed Tod and
Brough during the war, because they
had once been Democrats.
As to the Democratic party, where
does it stand? 1t not only approved
the arrangement by which the Mich
oils and Hampton governments were
placed in power, but it has approved
all their acts of injustice, violence and
quasi rebellion since. 1t stands ready
to put them and men like them in
complete control of the government
Of the United States, and relies upon
their Internal programme of murder,
violence and fraud, to maintain solid
South and carry the next Presidential
election. 1f we had reason to distrust
Charles Foster then, we have a thou
sand times more reason to distrust the
Democratic party now. We can con-
sistently honor Mr.. Foster for his
candid acknowled cement of the mis-
take he made, and we can conscien-
ciously support him because he now
sees, what he did not then fully per-
ceive, the depth of Democratic wick
edness, faithlessness and wrong. His
attempt to conciliate the thugs and
assassins of the South, has resulted in
the total suppression Of civil and po-
litical liberty throughout all the
Southern States, the revival of the
foul spirit of State rights and nullif-
cation, and an organized effort to
starve the government to death unless
it would surrender Internationally tc
traitors.
The Democratic party aided thai
effort, encouraged that spirit, approve;
that suppression; and because it does
Charles Foster sets his face like fin
against it.
Let the Democratic party denounc,
treason, repudiate its alliance will
the rebel brigadiers, renounce it's muir
derous allies in the South, give up it
wild schemes of inflated currency, ant
show by deeds that it is no longer tn
great public enemy which CONSTANT,
threatens the peace, safety and homo
Of the Republic, and then, perhaps
we might hesitate as to whether t
array ourselves with it or with Charlie
Foster But if, in its present attitud
of reasonable menace to all that W
hold dear, we do aught, directly or IL
directly, that shall aid it in obtainin
power nay, if we fail to use our be:
efforts to counteract its designs an
defeat it's candidates, may our rigl
hand forget its cunning!

Our Position.

We notice that Brother Newman,
Of the Portsmouth Times, quotes at
great length from the Herald, in order
to show that Mr.. Furay condemned
the transfer Of Louisiana and South
Carolina to the rebel Democracy, and
opposed the nomination of Charles
Foster OH account of his share in that
transfer
We have this simply to say, we no
more approve of that transaction now
than we did then. If Mr.. Foster,
trusting to Democratic professions,
believed that the Nichols and Hamp-
ton governments in those two States
would respect the rights Of the people
and inculcate abedience and loyalty to
the Republic, he has since seen his
error, for they have violated every
pledge they made, trampled the rights
of citizens ruthlessly under foot, set
at defiance the national government.
and gone as far as they dared in inau-
gurating a new rebellion. Mr. Foster
has looked upon these developments

Men were crowding the river bank. They
were consulting. could see, cxcitedly, de-
batting what should be done.
There was rush ofsome from the crowd.
Time passes, ages to me, In my agony. At
last boat comes, borne on the shoulders Of
boatmen at run. They lay It at the vat
er's edge. Delay delay o. God There
is rush Of others with coil Of cable, not

it securely.
The boat is towed along the still side wat.

What will they do Col, what will they do'
What sane being will venture his life to
save mine 7 Delsyl delay They have
slapped. Talk chatter will they never
act Oh, dear, God help him--bless him!
A canoe pulls out from shore with the bort
in tow. The canoe as we'll as the boat has
cable secured to it, by which those on the
bank regulate its drift down stream. How
strongly it struggles up and out into the full
food Both cables are secured round trees
and paid out by numbers.
Fighting up and across the tide, drifted
down 1t as the cables slack their length, I
~atch-with what huugering ewes The ca

on the cable, guided tho by rope from the
nearly stationary canoe The current sets
it towards me. 1t is brought up by the
strain of cable ashore. Still IL drifts nearer
and nearer.

THROUGH THE TUNNEL

Riding up from Bangor,
On the eastern" train,
From six weeks shooting
In the woods of Maine;
Quite extensive whiskers,
Beard, moustache as well,
Sat 'student fellow"
Tall, and fine, and swell.
Empty seat behind him,
No one at his side;
To pleasant station
Now the train doth glide
Enter aged couple,
Take the hinder seat;
Enter gentle maiden,
Beautiful, petite.
Blushingly she falters,
SIS this seat engaged"
(See the aged couple
Properly enraged)
Student, quite ecstatic,
Sees her tickets "through,"
Thinks of the long tunnell-
Thinks what he might do.
So they sit and chatter,
While the cinders fly,
Till that "student fellow"
Gets one in his eye;
And the gentle maiden
Quickly turns about
"May |, if you please, sir,
Try to get it out?
Happy "student fellow"
Feels gentle touch;
Hears gentle whisper,
'Does it hurt yon much ?"
Fizz, ding dong! moment
In the tunnel quite,
And its glorious darkness,
Black as Egypt's night;
Out into the daylight
Darts the eastern train;
Students beaver ruffled
just the merest grain;
Maiden's hair is tumbled,
And then there appeared
Cunning little earring
Caught in students beard

EDITOR DELAWARE GAZETTE Dear
Sir: We thought our new church was
quite large we think 80 yet, but 1t will
no. hold all outdoors. It Is one Of the
fortunate arrang. ments of nature that
there IS an outside a. we'll as an inside,
or many people wonld have heard no
sermon OH Sunday last.
Rev. DIR. BristOr, an old friend OF the
pastors had kindly consented to be with
us-was announced, advertised, posted,
until, for miles around, his adv. mt was
eagerly awaited. ~ D.l
BY 10 o'clock the house was full !;
by fifteen minu'es afler so was
the grove, and as the church
has IL windows and doors there were
thus afforded II avenues Of communica-
ton with the moving through without.
To reach the doors put In requisitiOil
elbow dynamics, to thread the aisles re-
quired maivellour acrobatic feats, and
then upon the multitude fell bush as
the DR.. rose to announce the services
begun.
The sermon was strong, well dipested
and thrillliug,-based upon "The Unity
of Inspiration" and led the hearers by
the still waters of Kedron or along the
foaining, divided Jordan.
Now we trembled q with the speaker
We climbed the freight Sinai, now we
wept In the garden of sorrows, now
turned sick at heSrt from the tragedy Of
the cross. 1t was one of our Brother RS
best.
At night the collections were again
attended to, this time before preaching.
and while the Doctor kept the congrega
ton In > good hun - there was none OF
that rreverent by-plsy and ribaldry
SOMETIMES attendant upon these occa-
siOns. The people were In earnest and
the entire debt was paid.
| "EhJah's LessoDs' was the theme for
the evening and the SUM Rht and shad.
iuRs of this stauneh old hero were graph
icaliy portrayed. We cannot refrain
from quoting one sentence which wal
substantially ~ f0ll0ws:-"I would
rather the Grasping q single shred OF
truth and lay II before the throne Of the
Eternal As my ali Of life, even though
the world write Failure" upon my toni
stone than be h-ralded by trumpet blast
and be followed to the grave BY noddinQ
plume, and mourning thou. ands.
After the sermon, the pastor, Rev. J
Heston Wiley, presented the building
on behalf Of the Trustees to Bishop
Scott for dedication, and the Bishop In
his Impressive manner completed the
services of to-day.
| Methodism has fresh hold on this
community, and pastor and people are
bent upon making the present church
like the old pne, ton small.
