TO MEET AGAIN.


Written for the Democratic Advocate.
BY ]. W. sLAGENHAUP.
We have seen our dearest treasures
Droop away like fading flowers;
We have wept while like shadow
Sorrow veiled the parting hours.
For time the tie is broken
But 'tis only for awhile;
In the light of fadeless glory
We shall greet their loving smile
Flowing tears reveal our sorrow
When the last fond look is given.
When the last fond word is spoken
And the ties Of earth are riven;
But still small voice seems whispering
Soon, oh. soon again Wen meet"
And we lay our deepest sorrow
At the dear Redeemers feet
There's radient light of glory
Beaming down upon the tomb:
'Tfs the glory OF redemption
That dispels its awful gloom.
Soon we pass the pearly portals
Soon we reach the mansions fair,
Where the Saviour reigns in glory
We shall meet each other there.

The increase of the able-bodied popula-
tion by emigration and the natural laws
kept pace with the requirements of the
country, for, notwithstanding the drain
upon the population by the rayages of a
terrible war, there was larger vote polled
at the presidential election in the fall of
1864 than in 1860 In the latter year the
total vote for President was $3.50, ,222, and
in 1864 it was +,Ol5,902, net increase
Of 145,551. It win thus be seen that the
election of 1864 demonstrated that, with
all the battles that were fought during the
previous three years and half, and all
the lives that were lost, there were ia
November, 1864, more men in the country
than there were at the beginning of the
war. Such was the eagerness of foreigners

cowARps pRAwINa pensions.

These are some of the pension cheats
who are touching elbows with brave and
deserving American soldiers, These frauds
upon the government and upon the people
entered the army to secure the enormous
hounties, and some of them never went into
a battle, and at the close of the war went
home with their pockets full Of money. 1t
was never intended that they should be
put on an equality with the American cit
izen, and yet, notwithstanding the stipu-
lated hire was paid to them and the war
closed over twenty-nine years ago, it
is estimated that over $4,000, 900 is
sent out of this country annually to
Europe to pay foreign pensioners. Many
were physically incapacitated for service
long before they entered the army, but
with the aid of corrupt examining sur
geons, and the connivance of muster
ing officers, they were passed. Relative
to physical disability, the Provost Marshal.
General as early as 1863 made the state
ment that "since the present rebellion be-
gan about 100000 soldiers, after entering
the service, have been discharged on sur
geons' certificates of disability. 1t is pro-
bable that at least one half Of them were
unfit for service when received. Il may
be safely said that S40,000,000 was use

A Bravo Engineer.

During the recent strike tin the coal
regions, Hooking Valley coal train
was stopped by the strikers about q
quarter Of mile from wooden
bridge. The leader of the strikers told
the engineer that he must not pull the
train through, and the engineer de-
clared that he would. "Come down,
Jim!" cried one of the strikers. "We
know you too we'll to harm you. We
have keg Of powder on that bridge,
and when the boys see you coming
they are going to light the fuse" "All
right" replied the engineer, grimly.
''I've promised to pull this train
through, and through she goes" With
these words he opened the throttle,
and the train dashed on. The strikers
saw the train coming and lit the fuse.
On and over the bridge the train went;
as the last car cleared the structure,
bang! went the powder, and the bridge
was blown to splinters. The fuse was
quarter-inch too long.

The Three Periods of Mans Life.

Lady Dufferin was closely related to
Sheridan LIE Fanu, of whom Lord Duff
ferin tells little story. When little
boy, Sheridan le Fanu wrote an essay
on the life of man, which ran as fol-
lows: IA mans life naturally divides
itself into three parts-the first when
he is planning and contriving all kinds
Of villainy and rascality; that is the
period Of youth and innocense. In the
second, he is found putting in practice
ell the villairy and rascality he has
contrived; that Is the flower of man
hood and prime of life. The third and
last period is that when he Is making
his soul and preparing for another
world; that Is the period Of dotage."

paign In the Blue Grass State.

u
paign In the Blue Grass State.
John c. Underwood, who was elected
lieutenant governor of Kentucky on
the same ticket with Luke blackburn,
is an amusing story teller, particularly
when he is started on the subject of
political stumping in Kentucky. "Our
people," said he to New York Even
ing Post man not long ago, don't like
snobbishness. 1 remember one time
when was stumping one of the noun
tain counties bought twenty-five dol
lars worth of niclSels and carried them
in my saddle bags. AT every log ca bin
l would ride up and ask for a drink of
water. Out would come little boy or
girl with a gourd dipper of warm
water. / would take swallow, then
drop nickel in the dipper. The little
one would run in and l would go on.
The child's mother would come out and
have the generous gentleman pointed
out. The consequence was that l got
the vote of that house. Well, one
morning rode up to a house and lit
tie girl brought me out dipper Of
water. / felt in my pocket and discov-
cred that hadn't copper.
Little girl said 1, L generally
have nickel somewhere about me, but
haven't to-day, SO I'll give you what's
the next best thing for girl, and that's
kiss and got down off my horse
eyed girl at home. Another little black
eyed girl here showed up, and had to
kiss her for niece of mine she looked
like. BY this time, another little girl
showed up, half head taller than the
rest and, not TO be impartial, kissed
her; when | found that four or five
other girls had gathered. and was in
for it. SO, beginning with the smallest,
l kissed each one. The change in
stature WAS so gradual that l didn't
notice that the last one was a full
grown young woman-and right hand
some at that-until had kissed her.
Looking up, I saw that there were two
or three old ladies laughing at me, and,
thinking | had made bad break, I
lifted my hat to the young lady and
begged her pardon and explained how
it was. She didn't seem to mind it
much, but the old ladies kept laughing,
and one of them said Why, durn it,
she's Bill's wife
"'Well,' l thought, Pm in for it.
That knocks out all my votes in this
neighborhood. l inquired at the next
house who Bill was, and was told that
it was Buck Holmes, the hardest citi-
zen in Carter county. Next day l had
to speak at the court house, and when
l came up l noticed a gang of about
twenty-five rough looking fellows off
at one side, and big six-footer talk
ing to them and gesticula ting with both
hands.
"'Who's that| inquired.
"'That's Buck" Holmes and his
gang was the reply. Cold chills ran
down my back and I shifted my re-
volver around to where l could reach
it without trouble, and then sauntered
up to overhear what he was saying,
"'Well, I'm blankety blanked,' l
heard him say, If he don't catch my
vote. No snob thar, gentlemen. Jest

one'sP That settled it, and / got one
hundred and fifty more votes in that
county than any other man on the

Driving windmiIas by Electrioity.

A novel departure has been taken by
the owner of windmill at Bremen,
Germany. Hitherto it has been the
custom to use windmills in conjunction
with dynamos for the generation Of
electricity. more especially for lighting
purposes, In places remote from regu-
lar supply OF current, and some most
successful installations Of this kind
have been made. The owner Of the
German Windmill proposes to reverse
this process, and instead of making his
windmill drive dynamo he will use
IN electric motor, connected with the
town electric mains. for driving his
machinery when Q calm prevails.

ENGLISH HARVEST SONGS.
Ditties That Are Sung to Tighten Heavy
Labor.

Ditties That Are Sung to Tighten Heavy
Labor.
When the ricks are thatched, when
the labor money is paid, when the plow
has turned up the soil carpeted with
grass and stubble, and the harvest
moon has risen and lived her short but
gloriously golden career, then comes the
harvest home and the harvest song. In
England, says the Gentleman's Maga-
zine, we have the harvest sermon in the
village church, the supper in the barn,
interspersed with many Jest and
many q song; and 1t is of these same
songs, so typical Of rustic life, that
am going to speak. In those countries
where the vine is cultivated there is no
end to the merriment which follows
the anxious days of moissonage. The
fruit is gathered, the winepress trod,
the vintage bouquets put together and
presented to the ladies connected with
the wine farm, and all the time there
is perfect festival of song, simple and
bright and full Of harmony.
In Tuscany, in France, in Germany,
and in Russia, there are numbers of
harvesting songs, all more or less full
Of poetry, and instinct with charming
melody; therefore We should like to
think that our own country is not far
behind In this matter of harvest sing
ing, although the gleanings are not
associated with the romance of the
grape. Unfortunately, harvest suppers,
and harvest songs with them, are dy-
ing out, and the sooner we preserve
any glamour of characteristic humor or
pathos they may have owned the bet
ter.
AS the sailors chanties were used to
tighten the labor of hauling and heav-
ing before the days of the steam winch
and patent capstan, so were the har-
vesters' songs required to help the
reapers and the cleaners in the times
when the sickle had not even given
place to the broad hook, much less to
the machine. The harvest supper was
always an occasion for the singing OF
good. old-fashioned songs, of which
each man had his own repertoire,
which he gave untiringly year after
year. Such standard works as "John
Barleycorn," "Carrion Crow and ''The
Farmers Boy" are, or rather were, an
indispensable part of the harvest-home
supper
