remarks were made by the Rev. Mr. Spoor
A poem was read by Mrs Day, composed
by Mrs. Spoor for the occasion.
The following is Mrs. Spoons poem, which
is addressed 10 her husband;
We stood at Hymens altar,
Five years ago tonight;
The future fancy painted
In coors rich and bright.
Double has streamed the sunshine
Storm-clonds hays-arnid 81. tcS,iI
Its shadow falls On you.
But thanks he TO kind Heaven
II ne'er has stepped between;
Our hearts are now united
As ever they have been.
United? Yes, more closely,
Each stroke strengthens the chain;
loves links by Heaven welded,
Can ne'er be broke in twain.
Five years while backward CHANGING
This thought comes in tonight;
What have we done for the Master,
And what done for the right
As the harvest field we entered,
thought TO CLEAN my way,
While you thrust in the sickle,
And rich shesyes bore away.
Ny life seems wondrous idle
When just inside the gate.
A voice to me has spoken:
Here, child, sit down and wait.
Well, you thrust in your sickle,
And gather all you can;
I'll watch you in your labor,
And patient wait Gods plan.
Perhaps the wind will toss me
few ripe blades of grain,
And can save a handful
Which would have wasted lain.
Again We face the future,
Its path is all unknown;
Among the scattered roses,
The thorns may thick he srewn.
BE as ii may my Husband.
Wen clasp aneir the hand.
And pray our feet may enter
AT last, the better land.

Figuring on the Electoral votes Of the

total number of Electoral votes is 369,
Of which lS5 are necessary to elect a

If Hancock gets the l3S votes con-
eeded to him he will require but AZ

native State, Pennsylvania, and Is from
Indiana. Il is claimed too that Col
srado, Illinois and New Hampshire are
likely to go Democratic, but however
that may be, those people who do no.
let their prejudices overcome their
reason, must admit that Hancock has
yet q decided advantage in the contest
unless Florida and Virginia may go Re-
publican, and even then he ought TO
have an equal show with Garfield. That
the Republicans are by no means san
guine of carrying enough Northern
States to elect their candidate is appa-
rent from their attempts to colonize
FLORIDA, where Marshall Jewell has
been caught in the act, and is vainly
attempting to make it appear that the
three or four hundred men, recently
sent to that. State, were Democrats.
This colonization scheme to secure the
Electoral vote of Florida for Garfield,
shows the hypocrisy of his partisans in
the present campaign. While publicly
endeavoring to create the impression in
the North that every Southern State is
certain to vote for Hancock, they are
secretly sending hundreds of men to
Florida to carry the State for Garfield.
A week from to-day will however
settle the question definitely, as the
man who is elected this time will BE-
seated, whether he be Hancock or Gar
field. The people will stand no more
cooked returns, or Returning Board
counts, made to order, but will insist
Oh having the man whom they elect,
whether he be Republican or Democrat,

Three young bricness lawyers, who have

who met in convention and put in nomina-
ton these same candidates whose characters
they tried to yillify. Is there Republican
in this county that can be misled by these
demagogues: We have too much faith in
the intelligence Of the Republican voters Of
this county to believe that there is one. One
of the crowd IS the regular nominee Of the
Democratic party, and, as such, he has per-
feet right to say what he pleases about Re-

MIX IN TIE cocoANuf.

To The Editor Of tie Eagte:
have but few words to say in answer to
the Beaeon's article charging Capt. Myers
and myself with duplicity in urging Demo-
Gratis to participate in the Soldiers Reunion.
10 the Democrats who contributed TO the
expense Of the ReuiOn, and to the notable
few who wore the tri-colOred badge upon
that occasion, l feel deep regret that any
thing Of partisan nature should have been
uttered by speakers to render it unpalatable
to them. Had the Democratic speaker not
shown the white leather at the last moment,
he might have administered such crumbs Of
comfort as would have rendered these lines
unnecessary. In this connection permit me
to remark that in all the letters l received
from prominent speakers, who were invited
TO address the veterans. the only one vino al-
ludes, in the remotcst degree. to politics, is q
Democrat, (the Hon. Thos. Mooniight), and
his letter is intensely partisan.
When the Bsacon charges me with false
pretenses and with sinister designs upon
Democratic soldiers. he states what is at va
rance with the truth. II was not in my
ers, aud aside from few brief illusions to
political affairs. defy the Beacon or any one
else tc make good the charge that we "yank-
ell in on the plea of patriotism the old SOL
diers who are Democrats to pull out Of the
partisan fires the political chestnuts which
We expect to devour comfortably squatted
on our launches"
The Reunion was designed in good faith
for the entertainment OF old soldiers without
regard to party affiliations. The result in
Indiana and Ohio only gave color to the
charges the Beacon has seen fit to make. One
Of the copartners OF that paper knows the
true inwardness of this thing-knows what
the arrangement was to be after the Reunion
had ceased. We simply carried out our part
Of the programme and the failure on their
part should not be charged up to the Gen
tleman Manager" OF the Veteran Reunion"
