THE POET's SONG.

The rain had fallen, the Poet arose,
He passed by the town and out Of the street.
light wind blew from the gates OF the sun,
And waves Of shadow went over the wheat.
And he sat him down in lonely place.
And chanted a melody loud and sweet
That made the wild swan pause In her cloud.
And the lark drop down at his feet.
Tho swallow stopt as he hunted the bee,
The snake slept under spray,
The Wild hawk stood with the down en- his back
And stared with his foot on the prey,
And the nightingale thought, II have sung many
songs,
But never q one so gay,
For he sirgs OF what the world will be
When the years have died away.

Three Chicago Delegates Selected-A State
Ticket To Be Put in the Field.
LITTLE Rock, April S.-The Republican State
convention, with large delegations from all sec
tions Of the State, met at half-past L to-day. The
indications are that the delegates will not go to
Chicago instructed, but will most likely favor
Arthur and Lincoln.
AT the night session S. w. Mallory was made
permanent chairman and the following delegates
selected from the State at large: Powell Clay
ton, II. M. Cooper, Logan H. Roots. Alternates:
Fl. L. Remmeil, Z. c. Morris, r. B. Thomas.
The delegates from the congressional districts
will be appointed tomorrow by the delegates
from the districts. All the delegates are I'M
pledged, but il is understood they are favorable
to Arthur if he possesses good chances of sue
cess.
The following resolution was unanimously
adopted:
Resolved, That the administration of President
Arthur has commanded itself to the Republicans of
the country. and to the people at large. When he
was called to the presidency he found the Republican
party distracted by internal Discussions. His wise
and prudent administration of the Offices Of the gov
ernment has tended to heal these dissensions.
strengthen and build up the party, and enable it now
to present a united front TO the enemy, with a full as.
suranee of success in the pending campaign"
1t was also resolved TO put a full State ticket
in the field. A resolution indorsing Senator
Logan, was offered as a substitute, but declared
out of order, under the rules, and the conven-
ton adjourned at $50 o'clock.
