Getting in the Vote.

At an early hour this morning the
poll.windows of the several wards
were crowded with voters anxious to
get their vote in early and take their
departure. One of the noticeable
features of the election to-day was
the absence of old familiar workers
around the polls and the Indifference
many persons seemed to manifest. A
more quiet, and tame election was
never witnessed 10 our city. Not
witbssanding, We believe good vote
will be polled, and an honest count will
be given the respective candidates.

Mr.. Joseph Beardmore. residing on
Horn Point, lost on Friday night last
Q flock Of twenty geese. The geese
were seen on the shore Of Mr.. Beard
more at dusk. on the above night.
and the next morning they were no.
where to be seen on the premises. -
The supposition 10 they were decoyed
away by some one and driven to
some other locality where they have
been pened up as their habits are such,
if allowed their liberty, like chickens,
they would be apt to "come home to
roost," as they were wont to do.

words
1.-THE leaves are falling one by one,
On graves Of young and fair;
They strew the sod DER our holy dead,
Who sleep and rest from care.

Our friends are falling too;
For them our spirit often grieves-
Our tears flow oft anew.

Let's learn lesson all;
That youth and beauty bloom awhile,
