Well gather now to sing our song
And drive away all sadness;
.! may this short and parting hour
Be filled with Taught but gladness
To cheer us when we backward look
On the days we were together,
Winch wei cherish while our memories last,
Through clear or cloudy weather.
Lifes hopes and joys before us lie;
The coming days are bright;
Our lives are in their sprng-time now
Our future full Of light;
Yet from our classmates, teachers all
xva " fr,,a
From you we part with deep regret,
And bid you all, adieu.
The happy years have FASTENED by,
Their memry we will treasure,
And soon the harvest we will reap,
From seeds we've sown with pleasure,
As side by side we all have toiled,
Through days and years now past,
So as we part, we'll each one keep,
These memories to the last
AT the close of the exercises DR.. Smaller con-

address, after which Mayor Senter awarded

Seriously, the question may be asked
whether anything At all is accomplished by
the traditional tactics of sending out cam
paign speakers; We doubt whether Single
instance could DO adduced of ma, ,ho

had been persuaded To change his vote by
any eloquence or argument of campaign
speaker. Nor is tho reason far to sock. The
opinions of the people are formed by m al.
most Infinite multitude of facts and circum.
stances, very few of which are within the
range Of any speakers influence. The
utmost that tho speaker can do is
10 present very small number of facts or
argu nents for the consideration of hs hearers
and in the existing condition ofhuman knowl.
edge il is almost impossible that these should
be new. The most powerful speeches of the
best orators, when analysed, consist merely
of facts and arguments which have been
published and repeated u thousand times by
the daily press, ia which, indeed, they first
made their appearance. Campaign speeches
have ceased to DO Nh element OF campaign
influence, and tho minds of the voters are
guided by considerations which no eloquenco
can change. Seventy times seven hundred
orators, were they each ono Demosthenes,
could not argue away the prosperity OF this
country, which is the paramount fact
in its current history and tho strong
reliance of the Republican party. Neither
could they argue out of sight the in

cratic party, which is tho predominant iea.

The Ownership OF United states
Bonds.

Among other interesting facts which will
BIO brought to light by the Forthcoming cen
aus will be those relating TO the ownership OF
the public debt. 1t is lot supposed that any
thing more than an approximate statement
can be obtained Of tho whereabouts Of SOM
S550,000, 900 worth of coupon bonds How.
ever the wealth. debt and taxation divisi,t
Of the census under the direction of Mr.. II.
?. Porter, will make every effort to locate, ms
far as practicable, this class Of Indebtedness,
The ownership Of the registered bonds Of
the United States, now aggregating nearly
$l,l75 900, 900, can be found with toorable
accuracy and the secretary Of the treasury
has placed at the disposal ofthe census office
the latest schedules Of quarterly dividends Of
interest. Tho examination which Ia now
being conducted will show when com
pleted where the indebtedness Of the
country is owned; now much in each
state and territory; how much in every city
containing more than 10000 inhabitants, and
how much in foreign countries 1t will also
show separate thu amount held by banks,
insurance companies and other large corpo-
rations, An interesting feature Of this report
will be statement ofthe number ofholders Of
given amounts Of b0nds-S 500, 81, 900, Sl0,-
900, etc, whatever tho amount may be--also
the number of male and female holders,
respectively. Of course the names of the
holders will not DO revealed. 1t is expected
that tho report, when published, will correct
a current Misrepresentation, namely, that the
bulk of the debt is in the hands Of
large bondholders. 1t is said that there are
no less than $1,000 owners of the 4 per cent.
bonds, about 1900 of the Ais, 5000 of the
Is and 5000 of the 6s, making total OF
$4,000 owners. One remarkable feature OF
the Investigation is the largo number OF
women who are bondholders, and it is not
at all unlikely that tho fair sex will be
found in the majority, though of course,
their aggregate wealth will not be rs great MS
that of the sterner sex.

Something must, of course, be conceded
to the force of habit, and "the SOUTH SO
called, has been "solid"-that is to say, sol.
idly Democratic SO many years that southern
traditions now "know not the contrary"
The Wing party had oncea strong hold in
the southern states; but Ms the slavery con-
test grew more acrimonious the Wings were
swallowed by tho Democratic organization,
and since 1854 the south has been solid"
Does it ever occur to the southern politicians
or to the white people whom they lead by
the nose, that the Democratic party in the
country at large began to close its grip" so
to speak, about the time the south became
"solid?' The Herald has a great many
southern readers-more probably than al,
most all other northern journals combined;
these will bear us witness that we have
always defended them when we believed
them wronged, and that the Herald has been
among northern journals the truest AS well
as their most influential friend.

EdisOn's Light.


Persons who suppose that because electric
lamps arc not in rs common use rs was pre-.
dictod year ago, Mr.. Edison has abandoned
tho project of introducing them, are much
mistaken. The wizard" is AT work, not
combining his attention to Improvements in
the apparatus for the electric light, but new
theless persistently pursuing his plan for the
perfection of the electric lamp. About the
lst of October he will have in position at
Menlo park the eight hundred horse
power engine which is approaching
completion in Philadelphia shops, and
with this giant he expects to light the 800
lamps, for which eight and n half miles of
mains have now been laid. He has been
perfecting the details of his work, rather
than changing the principle of construction
of the lamp which produced such n sensation
n year ago. The materials to DO used. such
MS wire, glass. wood, iron, the Japaueso Dam
boo for carbon tips, are now selected and
treated according to an exact science, and
the forty five workmeu, who are turning out
seven hundred lamps n day are expected ere
long to increase the number to twelve hun
dred. The progress of his work is such that
Mr. Edison anticipates that the trial of his
new apparatus nj MEMO Faux, next month,
will DO preliminary to the carly and general
Introduction of his light in New York
There may be delays which are now unfor-
seen, but his faith is unbouudiug that his in.
vention will reach m ultimate triumph which
will be complete.

That is to say, in 1876, and in spite of
majority of $4,000 votes in Maine in the
month OF .September, the Republicans lost
New York, New Jersey, Connecticut and
Indiana in the month of November. MIR.
Blaine has already caused to DO telegraphed
over the country as his opinion that Maine
will give no more than 1000 majority for the
Republican ticket tomorrow. II the Repub.

when Maine gave them nearly $4,000, how
can they expect to elect Garfield if thew 90
out OF Maine in September with less than
half OF that majority! The truth is that
MI. Blalt does not expect them to elect
Garheld; He knows that Garfield is to be
