OLD SONGS.

OLD SONGS.
ny 4. r. KIDD.
Where are the songs we used to hear,
Songs of the Olden timei
miss their witChing melody,
Their smooth and simple ryme.
miss them by the festive board
And in the mrthful hall,
miss them in the mornings light
And when tho shadows fall.
miss them by the firesde's glow
Where children, gathered round,
Watched eagerly their mothers lips
And drank in every sound.
miss them in Gods holy place;
The organ and tho choir
Have banished them, forever quenched
Their soft, celestial fire.
They linger over the fields
That are with fires strewn,
Orby forgotten paths that now
With weeds are overgrown.
They hang around the harp whose strings
All broken, mOullering lie,
And lutes untuned and faded hands
Tell Of their melody.
Their sweet resounding echoes haunt
Around deserted wallis
And long forgotten strains lie dead
In long forgotten halls.
Tho winds still chant their old time tunes,
The birds their old time lays,
'Tis man alone forgets the songs
OF older, sweeter days.
All shall We hear them e'er again
Yes, on the other shore
The happy shall their strains revive
And sing them o'er and DER.
If not for jeweled, golden streets,
If not for jaspar plain,
Who would not strive to reach that place
TO hear old songs again

Mr.. Gove's letter is the great sensation

anger and fierce denunciation. This
drives the last nail in the coffin of fusion.
Henceforth there can be be no cordial
union of the democrats and greenbackers

Coming Back.

Ex-Secretary Cove in his letter announc-
ing his return to the republican party
voices the feelings of thousands of repub-
lican greenbackers in the State.
He sees that the new party has been led
and driven away from the course it was
intended to pursue, that currency re-
FORM has been pushed into the back
ground. and that now the only aim of those
who direct the movements OF the greenback
party is to make it the instrument of the
democrats to aid in the election of Han
cock and give the control of the govern
ment to the Solid South.
Since the currency question has passed
away as an issue in this campaign. there
is nothing to hold arepublican greenbacs-
err in the fusion party. This is the
first point in Mr. Gove's letter The
second is. that il is folly. madness. crime to
continue to act with the democratic
party only to beat the republican party
and bring in a Solid South.
When the bond of unity. currency re-
REFORM" between the greenbackers and
democrats is sundered it inevitably leaves
the elements of which 1t is composed to
fall back into the parties from which they
originally came. 1t sends the republican
to his old party. the democrat to his. This
is the natural and logical process. The
republican greenbackers were at variance
with the republican party on but one ques-
ton, and that question having disappeared
as an issue between political parties,
every republican greenbacker may with
consistency say rs Mr. Cove says--and
thousands of them now that the Jam is
broken will say GO TO THE RE-
PUBLICAN PARTY"
Mr.. Cove is as honorable a gentleman
as the greenback party in the State had
in its ranks. He was conscientious in his
adherence to greenbackism. he is Just as
conscientious in leaving it and entirely
consistent in returning to the republican
party. from which he went into the green
back party. lie was the candidate for
Congress of the greenbackers in the First
District in 1873, and Chairman of the
greenback State Committee that year. In
1879 he was elected by the fusion legisla-
ture Secretary Of State, and held that po-
sition through the Garcelon administra-
tration. but was not participator in the

on THE HOME STRETCH.

ON THE HOME STRETCH.
We are fast nearing the close Of this
eventful campaign. Two weeks from to
day we rally at the polls. The race is
not doubtful, but we must not be content
with simply electing our ticket. We
must send the majority high among the
swelling it by every vote that
can by the greatest activity and good man
agement be brought to its support. The
bugle note Of victory this year must be
one that will electrify the whole Union.
The last week has been one of telling
work. The State is ablaze with enthusi
asm for the republican ticket. In the
character of the speakers. the number Of
the meetings he'd and the great and at
tentive crowds which have attended them.
the canvass of the past week stands I'M
rivaled. The State has been so carefully
mapped and spotted with speakers that
all important points have been reached.
The results have been glorious. Republi-
cans have been aroused to intense activity
all over the State. Men who had wan
dered away from the republican fold are
returning, and many who have voted
against us in years past will cast their
vote to condemn the crime of Garcelon
and his Council and against Solid South
ruling this country. Young men who are
about to cast their first vote will general
ly cast it on the side of free ballot and
an honest connt. Few Of them will stain
their hands at their entrance into political
life by voting for Plaisted and to endorse
the contingent vilainy.
From all parts of the State come the
most cheering reports. The pretended
movement in the interest of temperance,
engineered and carried on by democratic
capital and for democratic advantage, has
resulted in sinking its movers in disgrace
and stirring up a more earnest and pro-
found feeling among honest temperance
men forthe supporter the republican cause.
The announcement OF Mr.. Cove, the
fusion ex-Secretary of State, is having a
powerful effect upon the republican green
hackers. His letter rings like a trumpet
over the State calling upon greenbaekers
to beware of the democracy and rally to
the republican standard.
The quiet but sure work among the
voters is producing grand results. There
is no agency more effective than individ.
ual effort right down among the voters at
their homes and in the school district
meetings.
The present week will be one of I'M
paralleled effort in the State As the voters
begin to realize that this election will

gle. they become thoroughly interested
