GATHERING HEARTS-EASE.
BY JEAN INGELOW.

went to gather heart's-ease
When the bright sun sank to rest,
Drawing all bis sheaves fsunlight
To his garner in the west;
When the blossoms and the leaves,
Losing all their golden glow,
In the slowly gathering twilight
Family huttered to and fro.
All the ground was starred with MaJ
blooms,
Everywhere they met my eye;
But I went to gather heart's-ease,
So passed all Others by,
Oh my heart was ne'er so joyous
AS it was in those glad hours,
When wandered light and careless
Near the wood side gathering flowers
Then I gave them all to you, dear,
And looked up in your face,
And l wondered I could fancy
That the flowers had any grace,
Then it was gathered heart's-ease,
Then it was, dear heart, found
That the glory of the May blooms
Did not lie upon the ground.

The Chicago Inter Ocean is at
present exhorting its readers to
vote for DeGolyer Garfield.
Does the Inter-Ocean remember
saying, on q June morning before
tho nomination, anything like
this: a
"All dark horses are irrelevant.
Garfield may spring to momen-
tary vision. The galleries may
cheer as they behold the phizz OF
the tenpenny rockets that indi-
cate yearnings; but his record
will be lead, and his spinal weak
ness a encouragement to the
Republican party"
If the Inter-Ocean remembers
saying this, the question arises
whether it means what it says,

The Madison Journal has this
to say OF some of the deluded
darkies who have returned from
Kansas, glad TO get back to their
old homes:
We have recently conversed
with several of the returned ex-
odusters, and find them heartily
disguised with their trip. They
express great delight at getting
back to Madison once more, and
will doubtless spend the remain
der Of their lives on this soil.
Our exchanges from different
States also bring US the intelli-
gence that they are returning in
large Numbers; and many more
would like to come, but Tor like
of means. We feel sorry for
them, but venture to say they
will not in future be so ready to
credit and accept the stories and
offers made them by an adven-
turous set OF imposters whose
only motive was to use them as
tools for their own vile purpose.
Experience is a dear school, but
