POETS CORNER.

once upon an evening dreary,
While sat me dreaming weary,
In my chamber thinking DER
Things that passed in days of yore
While nodded, gently rocking
There came something, knocking,
Just outside my chamber door;
IT'S the wind, | slowly muttered,
Knocking upon my outer door
Only this and nothing more.
Soon there came a louder rapping,
That broke up my evenings mapping
Mapping as | never did before
Then called, Come in, thou spirit,
Make known the object of thy visit,
And the rapping on my door"
Twas my Grocer's clerk who sought me,
And who blandly besought me,
My monthly bill to look Ger
Only this and nothing more.
Then took my pencil, weeping,
To figure up how far was keeping
From the poor house door;
And the items they kept growing
Larger by degrees, and showing
Every month | owed the more
Then | swore by the Gods eternal,
And the devils below internal,
To trade hereafter at the Poets Store
Only this and nothing more.
1t is conceded by all that the Poets Store
has done more within the past year to bring
down the prices of the necessities of life
than all the influences that have been
brought forward since the war. They have
succeeded in demonstrating to the public
that penny saved is penny made, !"
and feel that they deserve all the liberal
patronage that has flowed to them from
nearly every family in the city and very
large number from the surrounding coun-
try. In preparing for the fall campaign
they beg leave to say that they have per-
fccted arrangements for the sale of Fish,
Oysters and Game Gin addition to well as
sorted stock of Staple and Fancy Groceries)
and propose to sell them cheaper than they
have ever been sold in this market. We
have Just received lot OF French Candies
potted Vienna and Ham Sausages, Crabs
Shrimps Canned Mackerel, Corned Beef
Sardnes in Oil, Mustard and Vinegar, Pine
Apples, in fact anything you may wish at
low figures. Fresh cheese specially.

ASSAULTED AGAIN.-John II. Har-
ris, the colored Democratic orator
from Virginia, is having rough
time north of the Potomic. Last
week he was twice violently assault
ted in Delaware by men of bis own
race, who had no federation for a
colored man who talked Democracy.
Thursday last Harris attended a
picnic of a colored post at South
Chester, Pa, but as soon as his pO-
Iitical antecedents became known.
he was knocked down and beaten
and severely injured. The report of
the assault in the Philadelphia Press
expresses the hope that Harris will
not again appear there and thus an
tagonize his colored brethren"

GENERAL Francis A. Walker, Su


perinteudaut of the Census, always
sensible, says the census taken by
his subordinates in the South as in
the North, has been fairly taken
He is indignant at charges that
frauds have been committed through
out the South. He has a right to be,
for, being in every day communicao
ton with the enumerators, and 10
constant supervision of their work, a
charge against them is really an in :
suit upon him. General Walker was
40 officer on Hancock's staff during
the war, and though life long re-
publican will probably vote for him
this fall. This is one reason for the
vicious and groundless charges made
By Radical papers against the work
of the bureau over which General
Walker presides.
