The hedge-row blossom stains the sod,
The south winds make the grasses nod,
And woolly lambs In awkward play
Down the green hillside ambling stray.
Along the blue horlzon-rim
The lights and shadows sink or swim,
And penclled family ON the skies
A ghostly half-moon's crescent lies.
The blackbirds chant the whole day long,
A rythmic madness In their song;
And dusk and dawn along the lane
Echoes the cow-bells' rude refrain.

The blackbirds whistle all day long,
rhythmic gladness In their song;
And night aud morning down the lane
Drifts by the cow-bells' rude refrain.
The flicker dips ON golden wings,
And far across tho meadow swings;
The swallow skins In lines OF grace
Like to the curves the painters trace.
Above, below, and everywhere
4 sense OF living thrills the air;
Springs message through the silence sent,
With earth and wood and sky is blent.

IN THE BAY STATE.

Boston. Nov. 10.-While the result OF
the election in Massachusetts, was re-
ceived with considerable satisfaction
by the Republican managers, as Gov
ernor Wolcott received a substantial en-
dorsement. the returns were especially
gratifying to the Democratic leaders, for
not only did the vote for their party
candidate for governor show an increase
OF 80 percent over last year, but they
succeeded In electing two additional
congressman, and materially reducing
the Republican maJorities in every one
OF the other districts. The state dele
CATION to the national house Of repre-
sentatlves will this year be 10 Republi-
cans and three Democrats. and, while
Senator Lodge viii be elected by the
legislature. the Democrats made sub
stantial gains in the lower branch. and
will constitute one-third OF that body,
where, last year. they had only a quar-
ter Of the members.
The interest In the election, aside from
the Democratic gains in every congress
sional district was the entirely un-
looked for defeat OF Joseph H. Walker.
who for 10 years has been the Republi-
can representative in the Third district,
and has held the position of chairman
OF the committee on banking and cur
rency in the national house for the last
three sessions. Mr.. Walkers defeat
was purely personal one, as his op-
ponent is credited with being an advo-
cate Of the gold standard and has other
Republican proclivities. IT is ALSO
claimed that Nephen. the successful
Democrat i'm the Tenth district, may
break with his party in congress on this
same issue.
The total vote for the gubernatroial
candidates was: Wolcott, 1870 246; Bruce.
