THE doorkeeper of the Senate turn
ed back the clock yesterday when the
hour of adjournment arrived. The
performance was symbolical of what
the Democrats have been trying to do
ever since they got control of Con-
gress. They have endeavored to turn
back the hands of Time and make the
people forget that fifteen years have
passed since the State Rights heresy
was destroyed at Apprenticeship.

The World as [ Find 1t.

BY FREDERICK LANGBRIDGE.
They say the worlds a weary place,
Where tears are never dried.
Where pleasures pass like breath on glass
And only woes abide.
1t may be sol cannot know
Yet this dare to say,
MY lot has had more glad than sad,
And so 1t has to-day.
They say that loves a cruel jest;
They tell of womens wiles-
That poison dips in pouting lips.
And death in dimpled smiles.
1t may be SOL cannot know
Yet sure of this am,
one heart is found above the ground
Whose love is not sham.
They say that life'S bitter curse
That hearts are made to ache,
That jest and song are gravely wrong.
And health a vasl mistake.
1t may be SOL cannot know
But let them talk their fill:
like my life, and love my wife.
And mean to do so still.

m. on Wednesday, at which time, as appears
from special kilograms in the Observer, the
vote III Ohio and Indiana was peacable ev-
erywhere; and 20 per cent larger than ever
before, significant of negro importations.
From the confused mass of kilograms show
ing Republican gains in Republican coun-
ties and Democratic gains in Democratic

Ohio stands Republican by about the
usual majority, with a gain of one or two
congressman.
hdiono is claimed by both sides, with
the probabilities In favor of the Democrats
by perhaps 5000. We have not a particle
of doubt that it is safe for 5000
