Oh bonny brown COW with your mlk-whi.e face, Nipping the nodding buttercups sweet, While nv happy steps with your own keep pace, Oh list 10 the story which repeats For never again, oh, darling Bess. Will we travel this path we know 30 well, Where the blossoms spring in such loveliness, And the sweet breath comes from the How ing dell. Oh bonuy Bess, nip the butiercup's gold, And sip the clover dew, u you VIII But my precious secret / must unfold, The telling cen gives . happy thrill. I have given my foolish heart away To a noble youth who lives me well, And tomorrow is my wedding day, Oil ring my joy with your tinkling bell. I'll never forget the pleasant hours, Nv sober friend, we've had together, While wandering thro' the meadow flowers, Or the tangled wood.path shro' the heather. Out In the dusky twilight gray, a. While the first pale stars were shining DER Us, Or out at the first bright peep Of day, With a world Of joy spread out before US. Oh ! since my girlhoods earliest ysars, My life has been happy dream. And few have been my cares or tears Thus far adown life's sunny stream. But DER my soul sriseth now A tiny doubt, a shadowy fear, That somewhere on my futures brow, Life may not prove 50 full OF cheer! Well, good night and good bye, my white-faced bess, The foamy pail is streaming DER, All the though I've told you, you may not guess, That q blithesome maid shall be no moro. But, oh ! do you see that form, my pet, just climbing over the meadow bars To the winds will fy each sad regret, While we'er walking homeward under the stars. PRRRYsBuRG, October. 1870.

II has become quite fashionable to kick Andrew johnson. 1t is true that he has done more for the Democracy of Tennes- see than all who are opposed to him com bined. But of late he has not chosen to follow the lead of men who are no more capable of leading than himself, and for daring to say that he esteemed it unfortu- nate that language susceptible of mis- representation was used in our platform, most persistent abuse has been heaped upon him. There is doubtless an object for all this, but unless it be that he is supposed to stand in the way of some body for the Senate, we cannot divine any reason why Democrats should Der sistently abuse him. We have waited for him to do some act that involved hostility to the Democratic party, but except the speech aforesaid. we have discovered nothing but the grossest Misrepresentation We are panied to see that Col. Vaughan, in his Cevington speech, took occasion to charge that Andrew johnson was the first one to point out that the Democratic platform meant secession, and that but for him, the Radicals would never have made such acharge against it. In this Col. Vaughan is mistaken. The first time we met the charge, it was put forth in an editorial in the Cincinnati Commercial the next day or two after the State Demo cratic Convention adjourned; and while we do not admit the correctness of the deduction, we have always lamente that other language, that was incapable of misconstruction, was not employed. Mr.. Johnson did not deliver his Gallatin speech for a week or ten days after this secession charge had been laid at Demo cratic doors. We refer to this matter to correct Mr.. Vsughan's impressions, to the end that he may modify his observations on this subject as to him may seem pro- per. Mr.. johnson Is too great man to be driven out of the Democratic party without inficting upon it great loss; and, besides, wedo not see where we can readily find man fully able to assume his man tie. Besides, Mr.. Vaughan, if an error of judgment

One of the finest passages in Dr..

DR.. Hayes thus describes bis ex- perience at this time: al looked on every eide with yearning of something outward TO tighten the heavy weight which oppressed my spirits; for darker times, end times of greater responsibility knew we're near at ha nd but desoIation and the sIleace Of death were every where around me, aud better than ever before, better probably thsn ever again, felt what it was to depend upon ones self and God. .Then came reaction, " hich will be read | ily understood By the intelligent reader.

AT the end of block or square the dri- yer, who. by the way, was an 1rishman, came up with him, and said ''Sir, you did not stop for your change; you gave me a ten dollar gold piece. and you must have thought it fifty cent piece.
