His Harp Upon the Willow.

From the Emporia Gazette.

sang one year ago, for Grover he has
changed the tune-what Grover says

strangest airs must raise. / cannot sing
the old songs now, my heart beats sad

What is the matter with demonetizing
gold if silver is to be thus treated? Gold

has not deprecated in value by
the ounce or pound, but only
as to gold. A ton of silver Will buy as
many hogs, as many horses, as many
houses and lands, as many bushels of
