LOVES HISTORY.

By sylvan waves that westward flow,
A bare-bell bent its beauty low,
With slender waist and modest brow,
Amidst the shades descending.
A star looked from the paler sky
The bare-bell gazed, and with sigh
Forgot that love may look too high
And sorrow without ending.
By easement hid, the flowers among,
A maiden leaned and listened long
It was the hour of love and song,
And early night birds calling.
A barque across the river drew;
The rose was glowing through and through
The maiden's cheek Of trembling hue,
Amidst the twilight falling.
She saw no star, she saw no flower
Her heart expanded to the hour;
She recked not Of her comely dover
Amidst the shades descending.
With love thus fixed upon a height
That seemed so beauteous to the sight,
How could she think Of wrong and blight
And sorrow without ending.
The bare-bell dropped beneath the dew,
And closed its eyes Of tender blue;
No sun could e'ere its life renew,
Nor star, in music calling.
The Autumn leaves were early shed;
But earlier on her cottage bed
The maiden's loving heart lay dead,
Amidst the twilight falling!

The Statesman, Democratic paper pub
lished at Austin, Texas, is at least manful
in its utterances. If the army be dissolved
it says-the great body of the people of
Texas will never forgive those who have
brought about the result. This little scrap
of cheerful reading is commended to the
calm contemplation of the members Of Con-
gress from that State who feel in duty
bound to submit to the behests of the auto

The Presbyterian General Assembly by
a very large vote resolved to maintain the
Freedmen's Board as separate organiza-
tion, and the Episcopal Council of Virginia
charged the deputies to the next General
Council to submit the question of giving
the colored people complete church or
ganizstion Of their own if they wish it.
All colored ministers hereafter ordained
are to have seats in the Council. All this
means that the black man is in the coun-
try in his individuality and that we may as
well at once make room for him.
Warmers Silver Bill has passed the
House. His bill is of no account, save as
it may afford him personal qualification,
and seFFs his party as hole through
which to get ont of the greenback morass.
The Bill is an attack, under false pretenses,
on resumption. It is the latest phase in
which infatiOnist lunatics present them
selves. Silver was advocated in aid of re-
sumption. This measure is an attack upon
the redemption Of greenbacks in coin.
The Bill will probably never get through
the Senate; and if it does, the President
should and in all probability, will veto it.

The Chicago TTmss-DemOcratie-says
Of the situation as presented at Washington:
''The immediate and most remarkable
effect of Mr.. Hayes second veto of the
Confederate 'wiping-out programme is
manifested in the shocking decentralization
of the BourbOns. The fact, which the
Times has made conspicuous from the very
inception Of that programme last Febru-
ary, that in the end it would utterly break
down, and its inventors be compelled to
ANONYMOUSLY back out Of the pocket into
which they so stupidity entered, they are
new compelled to recognize in all its force
and all its unpleasant Specification. They
set out upon programe that was clearly,
Enthusiastically revolutionary. Its revolu-
tionary character did not consist in the
tacking of offensive party measures to ap-
preparation bills, that has been done repeat
edly, by all parties, and, though an essen
TALLY vicious practice is not in itself revo-
lutionary. The revolutionary character of
the Confederate programme consisted in
the declaration Of its proponents that the
supplies necessary to carry on the Govern
ment would not be voted unless the Presi-
dent should become an accomplice Of the
legislative majority in 'wiping-out' the
National election laws, whose existence the
Confederates chose to regard as a grieV-
ance."

The death of VIM. Lloyd Garrison was
announced in New York city, on Sunday
morning last, at the house of a daughter.
The disease that caused his death, was a
modification of Brigh!'s disease of the KID
neys. His age was seventY-six years.
His great object and life work was the
abolition Of slavery, and though he was
permitted to see this great object cOnsum-
mated, the manner of its consummstion was
a disappointment to him as it was to all
who thought as he did, and the world at
large. Going out in blood as it did, was
outside of his plans of moral suasion.
But his influence was no doubt potent in
preparing the public mind for the wiping
out of the crime, and his efforts were
spent in a cause that will be connected
with his name in future history, and the
amelioration of man.

Blackburn, Democratic candidate for

trying to infect Northern cities with the
yellow fever during the war. Trunks and
boxes he had transported with infected
clothing, in hope that pestilence might
ravage populous communities, and sweep
to the grave young and old, men and
women. The disgrace Of such devilish
crime ought TO have led the scoundrel to
the gallows instead of to the honored
membership of a great political party.

on three ideas-unlimited issue of paper
money, immediate destruction of the pro-
tective tariff, and Bill Allen for the Presi-
dency. He says that Allen is the smartest
man in the Nation, and if he were hun

this end that his name is coupled with the
Office Of Governor, as it is believed that
the step will be easier from that position,
than from his present, especially as an in

The Indianapolis Sentinel says that
''this government can not be run on vetOes.
That being so, no party, except the Demo-
cratic party, would have gone to work so
determinedly to supply all the conditions
necessary for starting such an enterprise.
If the extra session was not concocted for
that purpose, what was the object of it?
The Democrats want to guard, by leg
islative action, against the use of D. S.
soldiers at the polls, and called an extra
session Of Congress for securing such ac-
tion, and because President Hayes defeats
all their efforts to tie him hand and foot,
they attack his principles and patriotism.
The response they get is the assurance
from President Hayes, that he has not the
remotest idea of using them for any such
purpose. The laws forbid it, and the
policy of his administration are at war
with it. Did they thus raise a false issueP
and thus try to fasten a mOnstrous fraud
and falsehood upon the President.
