The maiden’s path lay towards the north; | She toil: d for daily guerdon, And meekly bore her low estate, Nor felt her task a burden. *Till “hdpe deterred’, her spirits broke, ; And thorns seemed springing round her | And thoughts that were once purest joy Had only power to wound her. A poo old maid with tading cheek, Toils on trom early morning, With scanty thanks, and I'ttle praise, And ottimes heartless scorning. And yet sometimes she sees the Bridge, And hears the river flowing, When memory lifts the shroud ot years, The dead past calmly showing. And sometimes he. in idle mood. Mid silence all unbroken, Just wonders if the Bridge still stands Where their last words were spoken. The Little Bridge still lightly spans The rippling running water; But no bridge spans the gulf twixt pim And her—the y¢eman’s daugiter! —Chambers’ Journal. especially in New York, that the success os the Democratic party will bring loss of confidence and_finan- cial depression. Secretary Folger declares that the Ohio election has caused national values to shrink to the extent of $40,000,000. This is the stereotyped alarm cry which hasbeen relied on to driv the commercial and moneyed clas es of the country into the Republi- | can ranks at every election tor fit-| teen years. Its potenty has not! been inconsiderable, and never proved inettectual till the country had reached a condition of distre in 1866 under Republican rul which admitted of no fears of great- | erevils. Both kouses of congress became Democratic, and simulta- neously the country emerged into an unequalled prosperity. But no "sooner was prosperity restored and the commercial classes happy and hopeful than the cry of danger to the business interests of the country was proclaimed it Democrats should be allowed to control legislation. Not only are all the reasons offered in support of this assumption puc tile and inconclusive, but the history | of the short supremacy of the Dem- | ocrats in the legislative department in the few past years proves its ut- | ter falsity. Mr. Folger may find that this sort of campaigning, this mode of ap- pealing to the ignorance and fears of aclass mstecd of their reason—a class believed to be peculiarly sen- sitive in this respect—is losing force as time advances, and experience | proves its lack of truth.—Mo.

Batler’s Political Views. New York, Oct. 25.—In conver- | sation with Gen. Butler, the Demo- cratic candidate for governor of | Massachusetts, at the Grand Cen- tral depot last night, your corres- pondent obtained an idea concern- ling the New England statesman’s political views. Gen. Butler teels cenfident of his own election, and Massachusetts has been liberally ruled by the Republi- | cans in many instances, her masses are nevertheless desirous of giving the Democrats and anti-monopolists anopportunity to establish a few needed retorms in that state. Ii by accident the Republicans should elect their state ticket, the Demo- crats would gain two or more con- gressmen. Gen.§Butler believes the Democrats will this year carry New York, New Hampshire, Pennsylva- nia,.Indiana and Colorado, which have heretofore been considered the list of Republican states. Graves vs. Crisp. | (Kansas City Enterptise—Colored Man’s Organ.) We are for Alexander against John T. Crisp; first, cause Mr. Graves represents a prin- ciple and 1s the nominee of a party; secondly, because we are satisfied Graves that Mr. Graves will represent the | colored people of this district just as the white people are represented ; third, because we have found Mre Graves to be frank, open and sin- cere in his canvass and his preten tions ; and lastly, because we are op- posed to the dictates of the bosses | duced to enter inte this congression- al race. Mr. Warner, Mr. Waters or any Republican been the nominee tor congress we should be found sup- porting him with might acd main, and while, as a man, we have noth- ing against Col. Crisp, we cannot support him because he represents the bosses and the machine, whom we repudiate, and not any principle. A Prisoner Brought In.
