He has Cut His Eye Teeth.


The most widely circulated democratic jour
nal of the county assists in giving currency TO
an interesting rumor from Massachusetts,. This
is that the solemn, mossy old democratic mug
wumps up there are rather desirous than other
wise that Butler should run again this fall, as 1t
will give them an opportunity to quietly trip him
up and leave him prone and contused-hopelessly
out of the race for the presidential nomination
next year. There is nothing improbable in this
rumor, but If the solemn and mossy undertake to
play 1t low down on their Uncle Benjamin, they
had better sci about it very cautiously. He is an
aged democratic pilgrim himself, and he cut his
eye teeth many weary years 0go.

bargains with any person to defraud the gov

CURRENT GOSSIP.

THE OYSTERS REcoLLEcTIoNs.
My thoughts to-day
Are far away,
Dreaming of that blue waved bay,
Where, out Of sight,
Each balmy night,
used to watch the moons soft light.
My mates and /
Would calmly lie,
And laugh at Holsters lingering nigh;
We thought that they
Would pass away
Long ere we saw the light Of day.
While In our bed
We did not dread
The shadow of the ships oerhead,
But Oft we'd smile,
And care begune
By chasing crabs, mile after mile.
Then we'd play tag
Behind some snag.
And ride on anchors when they'd drag
With wicked wink
We'd swiftly sink,
And seok some quiet spot to drink.
But, yesterday,
Der that calm bay,
There passed a shadow where we lag,
Ere we could make
A plunge, u rake
Came sweeping down, aud us did take.
Now, on bar,
We gaze afar,
AS fixed as that great northern star.
Now, friends, good by
For we must die,
And be served up In stew and fry.

power under the law to take possession and con-

created while there are any bene1icaries con-
