SATURDAY AFTERNOON,

l love to look upon q scene like this,
OF wild and careless play,
md persuade myself that am not old,
And my locks are not yet gray;
For it stirs the blood of an old mans heart,
And it makes his pulses fly,
To catch the thrill of happy voice,
And the light OF a pleasant eye.
have walked the earth for four-score years.
And they say that am old,
And my heart is ripe for the reaper Death,
And my years are wellnigh told;
II is very true, it is very true;
am old, and bide my time;
But my heart will leap at q scene like this,
And half renew my prime.
Play on, play on; am with you there,
In the midst of your merry ring;
can feel the thrill Of the daring jump,
And the rush OF the breatLless swing.
hide with you in the fragrant hay,
And whoop the smothered CALL
And my feet slip up on the seedy floor,
And l care not for the fall.
] am willing to die when the time shall come,
And shall be glad to 60;
For the world at best is weary place,
And my pulse is getting low;
But the grave is dark, and the heart will fail
In tresding Its gloomy way;
But 1t wiles my heart from its dreariness,
To see the young so gay.

A New Man in the Field.

1t will be seen by our local columns that
the straight fiat-money Greenbackers met in
conference in this city Saturday, and nomi-
mated as candidate for Governor, S. d.
Greenlcaf, of Starks. What effect this NOM
ination will have upon the coalition or upon
the vote of the State it is impossible to pre-
dict. That depends upon how sincere the
professed believers in fiat-money are, and to
what extent they have the courage of their
convictions. If the talk that was made by
the Neav Era before fusion was effected, and
that has been made since by the LABOR
Chronicle and the Greenbdcker, means bust
ness, it means that these papers will support
Greenleaf If the reafirmation eff the
Greenbackers this year of the Toledo and
Lewiston platforms is sincere it means a
support of the new nominee But if these
platforms and the professions of these papers
are but pretences, the bond-holding and
money-lending Smith will still be generally
supported The new nomination is a test of
Greenback sincerity. If the Greenbackers
believe in their avowed principles. Greenleaf
is their man. If they are only seeking the
spoils of office, Democratic success, and
other fruits of fusion, the trade and dcker
Smith is their man.

Seize the Opportunity.

We have now entered upon the closing
week of the canvass, and have but q few
days left in which to put in our work. The
reports from all over the State are of the
most cheering character. Every day new
accessons to our ranks are reported. Every
day Republicans are displaying greater zeal
in the conduct of the campaign. 1t is i'm
possible to reject or distrust the reports of
gains, the assurances of victory, that come
from every quarter. Our opponents are get
ting more and more discouraged as news
unfavorable to their cause keeps pouring in.
Though they will play the game of brag and
bluster to the last, in hopes to keep stout
the hearts of their followers and prevent
complete stampede, they feel that it is ''the
Lost Cause they are championing.
Their only remaining hope is that the
Republicans, confident of success, and made
careless by the assurance Of coming victory,
may relax their efforts and permit the Goa
lition to have the field to itself this week.
That hope must be disappointed. The fight
this week must be hotter than during any
previous period of the campaign. The enc
my must be met and pushed back at every
point We must not suffer our zeal to relax
through over-confdence. All Republicans
without exception should put il all the
work that is in them this week, and not re-
lax their efforts until the polls are closed
Monday night Then, and not till then,
should they rest upon their arms. There
are close Representative districts where one
vote may determine the result. There are
Senatorial districts where few votes may
elect or defeat our candidates. And too,
while we are about. it we want to make our
majority for Governor so large that it will
not only deal the coalition a fatal blow, but
will also hold up the hands of our friends in
Ohio. A great victory here will be followed
by a great victory there, and the two tri-
umphs mean victory so complete that the
financial question will not enter the contest
of 1880. So let each man go to work him
self, and not rest content with the efforts,
however able, his neighbor is doing. Let
every man get into line at once for the final
charge.

Chronicle Comment.

AT the Knox County Democratic convention held
to-day, Capt: Chas. y. Sylvester OF Camden was
nominated for Senator, receiving forty-one votes

renominated for County commissioner and William
H. Rhodes for County treasurer by aceamation.
The platform of the State Convention was endorsed.
Argus.
The above nominations show how much
faith can be put in the Democratic party They
endorsed Hon. Nelson Thompson's nomination
last year. This year they will not do it because
Thompson is an uncompromising Greenback-
er. If the Democracy endorse a ticket make
up your mind something is wrong about it,
Pillsbury Il Co. have directed the Greenback
campaign thus far, and many of our hest
Greenback speakers have been discharged by
his order, including Duncan and Sargent. We
hope our uncompromising Greenbackers will
give no quarter to the Democratic or Repubii-
can party; both are equally our enemies

A Greenback officials Certificate.

Mr.. E. II. Cove, Secretary of State, has
been on the stump explaining matters of
State to the people. 1t appears that he is an
ignorant OF a misleading teacher, who has
not yet sufficiently familiarized himself with
his business to conduct it properly. He
would do we'll to confine himself to his Office
more and to address political meetings less.
AS will be seen by the report elsewhere
quoted from the Adeertiser, he has certified
that the salaries of the Judge and the Regis
ter of Probate for Cumberland County are
respectively $1,000 and $500. In reality the
salary of the Judge is $1,000, While he has
received since September of last year about
$500 under the insolvency law, making his
entire salary over $1,000. The last Republi-
can Judge received but $1,000. The Register
nominally receives $500; but as he is allowed
$525 for clerk hire, the salary really amounts
to S1325. Formerly he received $500 and
paid his clerk hire out of that. So the real
decrease of his salary is but S175. Yet the
Secretary of State certiies that it is 800.
If Mr.. Cove is to be judged by this misstate-
ment the sooner his place is supplied the
better it will be for the people. We want a
Secretary of State that at least knows the
four simple rules of ari thmetic.
Mr. Gove's official and erroneous certificate
appears in one of those delectable sheets
called argus supplements The character
of those supplements is now so well known
that we do not find it necessary to enlarge
upon it. They are remarkable only for men,
dacity. In the same supplement in which
Mr.. Gove's certificate of his own ignorance
appears may be found a batch of Mr.. E. f.
Pillsbury's misstatements about State ex-
penditures. The falsehood of them has been
exposed over and over again, and he still un-
blushingly repeats them. 1t is unnecessary
for us to give name to his offence. The
name will come readily enough to the lips
when the statements are read by men who
are well acquainted with State affairs.
Among these misstatements are: the mis-
statement concerning the public lands; that
concerning the sale of the islands; that con-
cerning the State debt; that concerning the
alleged deficiency; that concerning the
rust funds; that concerning State disburse-
ments for ordinary expenses in 1878 lex
posed in our columns to-day; that concern
ing the expenses at the Centennial Exhibi-
ton; that concerning reduction of salaries.
And to all of these Secretary Cove appends
his worthless certificate.
The misrepresentation concerning the
Cumberland officials is not an exceptional
e Al.
which the fusionists have misrepresented
matters from the beginning of the cam
paign-though, it must be confessed, the
nearer election day approaches the more au-
dacious their falsehoods become.
