s A POEM. : |BY HOOD ALSTON. i o i — i To Senator Hendricks, the liberal candidate For Governor of Indiana State, - And J. B. Stoll, his worthy asseciate, : {The coming Auditor, as sure as fate), . Who can’t be hought, nor bared, nor bribed, This poem is respectfully inscribed—- < . ' Bythg Author. ~ THECHAPPAQUAN. b “ Whom will you vote for, ’Squire ?” said 1 . To an aged gent'eman passing by 1 " The Baxxee office, in Ligonier. > ‘;l Election day was drawing nigh, = o And I wanted to know justhowand why My neighbors were going to vote, for fear - "I might have lost in the while of events = . Some very materialevidence 3 Concerning my favorite man, That would impair my confidence : : In the white-haired Chappagnan. . +*l hall vote for Greeley ;” theold "Squire said As he raised his cane and shook his head. i - T mean to work and do all T can i To elect the honest Chappaquan.’ i His voice was low, his face was pale; ‘His bent form shook like a treejn a gale, His sonl shone forth from his windowed head And seemed to confirm every word he said. ; From his lustrous eyes shot spark after spark Like the flash from a blacksmith’s forge in tho And he gave me reasons’ why he should voteFor the man thst wears the notable coat. «1 tell you, my friend,” remarked the ’Squire, .. : “The time is come, we must go up higher. There is too much smoke to be no fire: = The proof is positive. This government - - Is in the hands of a President Who doesn’t care a copper cent, Except for his own emolument, He drives fast horses, so they say, : And drinks his wine and is fond of play, = ' And revels in pleasure night and day. He delights in Long Branch sport and fan, ' - ‘And neglects affairs in Washington. - He owns a royal palace car And goes in %tatc,’like the Russian Czar! He favors the rich and ignores the poor, Whenever they meet at the white house door ;"— And his cane went down with an angry chuck As if 't were the evil itself he struck. Tor a moment the *Squire ceased to speak Asheraised his ’kershief to his cheek; I caught his eye as his head went down, And a tear was struggling beneath the frown That showed the depth of the patriot’s hate When anything’s wrong in affairs of state, *’And,” continued the ’Squire, ** Grant ‘Was never fit for President i He has n’t brains enough to be A champion of liberty,— Such a man aswe need there : To fill the executjve chair. e I voted for him in ‘sixty-eight, _ : : ' Not because 1 considered him great Or good, or worthy of the trust, But simply because I thought T must.” | “1 always thought him a dangerous man, But as he was a Republican I considered him safer in the chair . Than such men as Seymour and Blair, Who leaned too much toward the rebel line To be particular friends of mine. # My voting I regarded no felicity, . But rather a political necessity.” «T knew Grant was bad, and all that, : But, I could n’t vote for a Democrat * o That had stood like Seymour in the fray Impeding freedom’s unward sway, Beds For one that publicly denied The cause for which the martyr died, And twenty thonsand noble men ’ Had perished ina southern pen— Besides the myriads untold - Whose lives so dearly had been sold . For liberty—on many a field - . Where solid columns met and wheeled - And fell amid the din and fray ; ‘Of battle’s magnificently stern array.’ I couldn’t think of voting then . : For old Seymour, or any such men I As doubted the justice of our canse : | . Infighting to maintain the laws And constitutien, and the Union save, And loose the shackles from the slave.” ' -

“ Thus Grant got my vote as I said before, ; The time he run ’gainst old Seymour; But, had I a choice to make again . Between two such incompetent men ;. “If they were in the field this fall I.wouldn’t go to the polls at all. But the field is different to-day, The battle:clouds have passed away ; ' @rant is playing a desperate game To extend his term and fame. By rings and cliques he is controlled, And bribed by their remorsefess gold. Under his administration - There is danger of centralization, .+ - And many things threaten the nation That never were thought of before. Schemes pass for just legislation Steeped in thé deepest damnation, . Whose chief object and instigation : Is to help the rich and crush the poor.” # I might mention & thousand bad things That are being done by these ¢liques and rings; How the people are robbed of what they pay Into the treasury; and the way The subsidy business.is carried on Down in thé city of Washington, o But Iforbear. Thank God!” said the 'Sqnire, +The party of freedom can’t expire. The Sentinels aré on the wall Declaring firmly to one and all ° That popular government must not fall. Hendricks, Trumbull, B&churz and Sumner, And hosts of men too great to number, Whose eye-lids knew 1o rest nor slumber During the dreadful qtf)rm, ; ‘ Have joined the liberal cause at length, . And stand a pillar of immaculate strength,: A support of this reform.” i :

%1 have expressed my opinion freely In regard to Grant.” Now, as to Greeley, I shall be brief. Another man - Would be hard to find like the Chappaquan. His honesty and genuine sobriety First brought him into public notoriety As far back as ’forty-six. Bat he never seemed inclined to mix Much with national politics.. ' He has stood at the press and wielded a pen Instead of a sword for his countrymen. ‘Some call him a pruner, and try to make harm Of the way he conducts his Chappaqua farm. Yes, he is a pruner, and soon he willbe ° Trying his hand on the nationai tree.”

‘‘ He came to us not as the hero comes, Preceeded by trumpets, and bugles, and drums, Nor as a comet whoge borrowed light Trails thro’ the sky for a single night.- - Nor yet as a straggling meteor bright That dazzles and then quickly fades on. the sight. _ ‘Greeley’s a fixture whom thousands admire; He shines in our sky like a ball of fire. Of corrse I am a Greeley man, ' - ‘And heartily endorse the plan . ; Of ralsing the Chappaquan ¢ : If we possibly can, a few ‘notches higher.” And the 'Squire passed on with a feeble tread, And I'll neyer forget how he looked when he said As he raised his cane and shook his head: ‘I mean to work and do all I can . To elect the honest Chappaquan.” i - HAwrATOH, InD,, Sept. 1, 72,

In a jolly company each one was to ask a (}neation ; if it was answered, he paid a forfeit ; or if he could not an swer it himself he paid a forfeit.— Pat's question was, ‘How the little groundsquirrel digs his hole without showing any dirtabountthe enterance ?’ ‘When they all give np, Pat said ‘Sure, do you see hebegins at the other end of the hole.” One of the rest exclaimed ‘But how does he get there?’ ‘Ah,, said Pat ‘that’s the question can you answer it yourself.” ~ : ' A tender<hearted ieago *bas driver says he hates to run over a man—~ be thinks it hurte the springs.

e A TRIO OF KNOW NOTHINGS., ~ Henry Wilson, the Radical candidate for Vice President, stands convicted of ‘being a Know Nothfng; He denies that he made some of the Know Nothing speeches yv!iich have, been' attributed to him, but he has not - d’fmied ‘that he was a member of that prosciptive organization and the fact that he came into political life under the specAi?lknursing"of the Know Nothing party it is well known by every intelligent voter in thecountry. Godlove S. Orth, ‘Grantite candidate for. Congressman at Large, in Indiana, also has a Kuow -N’othing record of which there is undoubted proof. He was one of the chief leadﬁ‘vs of the dark lantern order of the dark political days of 1854, ‘and aof this qhtgige, he too, stands convicted. @é nor his frien 1s do not deny his con‘mection with that dastardly npolitical movement, for to it be owes his political Motoriety and whatever fame he may have achieved. Thisbrace of worthies are now traveling around the country begging for the votes of men of all na“tionalities, creeds aud parties. Here is the oath ‘these men took when they joined this hated order, and if they have aﬁy consciences, that nath must still have its influence upon them: “In the presence of the true-and ever-living God, and on these sacred ' Scriptures, his Holy Word, I do declare that -1 will truly. fulfill my obligations toward my brethern of the order of’tlie Know Nothings, and that I will keep all the signs, tokens, pass and degree words, emblems and proceedings of said order. * *» #.% And [ further declare and solemnly swear that I. will not knowingly vote for, or appoint or elect any person of foreign birth, ora Roman Catholic, to any office in the local or general administration of the American Government; and I further declare and swear that I will use all the means in my power to connteract and destroy the influence of foreigners and Roman Catholics in the administration of the Government of the United States, and in any and all parts thereof, both local and general. To all this, a free and voluntary obligation on my part, without reservation, I pray that I may ever be able to remain true and steadfast, so help me God.” If these men have ever renounced their cordial acceptance of this oath the public has no evidence of it, and it is fair to presume that they still adhere ‘to the gentiments therein contained.

This oath would seem to be amply sufficient to bind any man to perform its obligations, but to render it mcre effective, the. presiding office of the lodge delivered the following lécture to the candidate: “As amember of this patriotic lodge, it will become your duty to disregard all personal interests and predelictions in the service of your, country in order that the corruptand evi: influence of foreigners may be effectually combated and destroyed, and here it will be understood, sons of foreigners and Roman Catholics are included.”

The Radical Central Committee is engaged in the arduous and dirty work of scatterppg Jason Bazoo Brown’s speech bécast throughout the Democratic districts of this county. Brown claims to be a Democrat tut we belicve the people of this county fully understand the style of a man he is.— He made himself infamous as a mem-« ber of the late Legislature and if possible, he has rendered himself still more infamous by his open sale te the Radical party. The speech is being sent through the mails and’:a noticeable feature of the transaction is the fact that the postage is paid by.stam'[,e; “This is accounted for from the reason that the game would be too transparent if any Radical Congressman should lend his fra_i;k to such base use. We assert that the Radicals alone are circalating these documents because we know, and every man in Laporte county knows, that there' is not.a dozen Louisville Convention men ;in the entire county, and none of them are men who would take any active part in the dissemination of such doctrines as Jason Brown teaches.® As anillustration of the kind of a ‘straight’ Democrat this man Brown is we quote the following extract from a speech which' he made at Shelbyville, Ind., one day last week:

“Before I will become the aider and abettor of this iniquity I will stretch forth my hands, not across the bloody chasm, but te my old political enemy, the Republican party, and aid her if she needs it, which I doubt, in retaining ‘control of the Government against this corrupt combination.” | ‘Bince the above was put in type la~ ter news has reached us. Tlre following telegram, from Columbus, Ind}j appears in the Indianapohs Journdl under date of last Satdrday : :

“Hon. Jason' Brown, Demoecratic Senator from Jackson and Brown counties, has just finished a magnificent speech to the largest audience at this p?ace of the campaign, in which he declared for Grant and the Republican State ticket. The Semator’s efforts will do much good here.” - This develops the whole secret of Jason Bazoo Brown’s recreancy, and we are. inclined to think that the effect of the farther circulation of his speeches will not be visible to the naked eye.

-- . Judge Niles® Speech. N 1o a prominent editorial the Chicago Tribupe pays a handsome compliment to Judge Niles, by giving the following brief but very accurate report of the sabstance of his speech: . . -“On Saturday last, the Hon. John B. Niles, of Laporte, Ind., one of the foremost lawyers of the State, and formerly J ud’ée and State Senator, ‘made a brief” speech, introdycing Carl Schurz to the audience which the lat--ter addressed at that place. - Judge Niles said that he had always belong~ ed to the party opposed to slavery, in~ Jjustice 'a.nd:.oll:pression; that he bhad contributed the best efforts of his life to the support of Republican principles; that he adhered to those principles still, and was rejoiced to see that ‘théy had achieved an undisputed and enduring triuniph in the/country. He thought that the time had now come to extend a helping hand to the Southern people, and to deliver the whole country from the despotism of partisan rule agd the government of rings. He believed that the speetacle now ?re; .. sented to the people, of fifty or sixty thougand oﬁce-hofdera, supported at public expense, all working as one man, not for the promotion of any principles, but for the retention of office, was calculated to excite grave apprehensions for the freedom_of elections. As there had been some doubt expressed by his fellow-townsmen concerning his position in this contest (although he had made no concealment of his intention to support the Liberal ticket), he was glad to embrace the present opportunity to say, to all who' might.regard it of any importance; that if his life should be spared till election day, he sbould vote for Horace Greeley and the Liberaﬂ nominees on the State ticket. N : It would, perhaps, be impossible to, condense the issues of the present campaign into briefer compass, orto give them more lucid ‘expression, than. Judge Niles’ ten-minute speech at Laporte.” " | . -

. An Amusing Blunder. Roscoe Conkling, in his ‘wonderfull’ speech recently delivered at the Cooper Institute, reviewed the life of the boy Ulysses, and read several letters purporting to have been written by him to his parents while he was at West Point, The precocious youth, in one of them discloses a bit of history heretofore unknown. The orator laureate of the administration should be censured for allowing such an’ important document to remain so long in the dark. Ulysses would have made as great a historian as he h:s a president, if not a greater. Listen to his disclousre: - ’ | “As I return from walk refreshed by the exercige inspirgd by the grand and varied scenery, and -better prepared for my studies, I pass by the cemetery of .the academy where some of our cherished ?ead repose. Here is the monument | erected by our grateful coutry to the brave hero- Koscinko, ‘who fell on the fied of battle on American soll, fighting for the liberties of mandkind. You remember father, the line that is -recorded of him: ‘Freedom shrieked wnen Kosciusko fell.’ “If the president and his “worthy counsellor, Roscoe have'any more such unknown facts treasured up in their mighty brains or even letters written to papas and mamas in youthful days let not modesty restrain them from publication. - “The chilhood shows the-man, : As morning shows the day.” ; - How Koscius o fell on ‘American soil’ when he died at Solcure in Switzerland (on the 16th day of October 1817) is difficult to - explain. His death was caused by a fall from his horse over a precipice. His remains were removed by the Emperor Alexander to the Cathedral chuarch at Cracow where, they now repose by the side of Poniatowski and Soblieski.

Dat ish Good. p - ~ Asa gentleman from New York was taking a glass of wine at the St. Louis, corner of Ffeeman and Hopkins streets, Cincinnati, about three weeks ago, hé observed another table, seated with several others, agerman who seemed uneasy and anxious as if there might have been a Franco-Prussian disturbanee between his beer and himself. Presently in ran a little girl, her face radiant with smiles exclaiming : ‘Ob, father! we’ve got a little baby at home!” | e ~ ‘Dat ish goot,” said the dutchman, as the anexiety disappeared from his countenance; ‘fill up der glasses.’ Not many minutes elupsed before in rushed the little girl again with-the announcement: ‘Oh, father, we’ve got two little boys at home ?’ : The dutchman looked a great deal astonished and not at all gratified at this little family redundancy but rising to the magnitude of the occasion he said : “Vell den dat is also goot. Fill up der glasges.’ In afew minutes again appeared the radiant messenger with the atonishing proclamation : : o ‘Oh, father, we've got three little boys at home! . : This was too mueh even for Tentonic impassiveness. There was no further call for glasses. £ ‘Well, den,’ says he, 'I goes up dere and stops der whole tam pisness | 7 i S e Gen. Tom.

Colunel Blanton Dunean’s Party.

- In some regards, Colouel Blanton Dhb;ﬂ can's party is the biggest conundrum that was ever submitted to the guessing facul ties ot the universal Yankee nation—bat it must not be even surmised that because ‘it is a huge conundrum, therefore, it is a huge party: The conundrum is not §us L gested by the size of the party: There is: no difficulty in the world in taking dts dimensions, at least not to: those skilled in fractions, but it is entirely with regard to the object the party has in view, its mission and its destiny. ~ We 'do. Do viplence, we presume, to \tr'u,tﬁ;,,byf;gkuiug;,t ' party Colonel Blanton Dun¢an’s party, and this appears all the more reasopable since Colonel Duncan, so far, has defrayed all the.expenses incident to birth, nursing, clothing, and schooling, and we have all confidence that he will continue to act a father's part, purchase its windingsheet, and defray all the funeral expenges when it finally Kicks the buckeb dnd takes its place with the useless trampery of past ages. = Still, the conundfum presents | itself, and if Colonel Biantop Duncan can not explain; will-he be so kind as to cail ] in the magicians, astrologers, and sm'cl{}; ; ers, and let them try their band at it? (It is quite possibjé. that bis- magicians, astrologers, and sorcerers will have to give Atcup’and back dowu;and tell the Col .. onel there is not a man upon the earth who can guess the conundrum, and deli‘cately insintiate that such conundroms ought not to be asked, Be this as it mpy./ there stands . the conundrum. What is the object, the mission, and thie destingof Colonel’ Blanton Dtnean’s party.” There are those who ¢laim that Colonel Duncan | has no party;' thiat so far what is inno-; cently called a party is only a few old wheels, Yelts, and thingunmegigs, thrown together for the purpose of manufacturing a party, providing the raw material can be obtained upon angthing like fair terms, ‘bot we incline to the opinion that Colonel Duncan has a party. Just now it is laying around promiscuousty and loese, (It peeds to be gathered up, put on a plattorm, and set agoing. This accomplished belligerent rights will bes conceded,‘q:d it can' be set up-and knocked down dur: ing the campaign lor the reereation of those who do not objéct to cruelty to animals. Admitting the fact that the-party exists, the conundrum again recurs,which the magiciang, astrologers, and sortercrs of the party havé not guessed-- What is Colonel, Duncan going to do with his party? ~ls it td be an Alabama, Craising on the political ~high seas, compeling Greeley whalers and Grant tugsto strike" ‘their colors, whilé Colonel Duncan foots | all the bills. TLis can hardly be ‘possible. The craft that Colunel-Duncan sailsg is ton small. Tt is possible that the Colonel, in the munificence of his generosity, hus cre: ated ‘his party as a sort of politic ' /in. firmary, where after the battle has: been fought, the sick, and lane, and dying can find shelter, have their wounds dressed, and be fed and pénsioned. - But this can hardly be the object which the generbus’ Colonel hasin view; his little party being composed chiefly of sore heads; they will have little time to devote to the mishaps of others: It is possible that the mission | of Colonel Duncan’s party is .to elect Grant? This we know is lustily denied, not ‘one of the eight.or ten: persons who are to-make; the earth tremble like the tramp,of an earthquake on the 3d of Sep. tember, when they rush vpon Louisville like an Alpine ‘avalanche, but:will assert roundly that Grant:is.not their than, they don’t take any Grant in their’n, and gther declarations, equally -empbatic, shewing that higher, noble, sublimer, and more “patriotic motives than helping Grant ani mates their bosoms. Then it must be to defeat Greeley. <And just here we have Colonel Blanton Duancan’s party on the: hip. This guess strikes it vetween wind aud water; the shell bag exploded among guuners, marines; cooks, sailors. and officers, and the cock-pit of .the ship is full of the wounded. = Hureka! we have guessed it, just as easily as. we could have, guessed that it. was the abject of the bull on the-track to stop the locomotive—just as easily as we could have guessed that, if the bull persisted in his.foolish course,. he would find himself spread over some ten or a dozen Tods square; very thin and an exceedingly dead buall. But Colonel Blanton Duncan’s party, unfortunately, if -its object is to deteat'Greeley but not to clect Grang, is ;without any -object, and the magicians, astrjogers, and sorcerers were right in.giving up tbé conundrum. Just here we are met by the pronuncia-. mento that the great object of the Blan. ‘ton Duncan party is to preserve the DemoCratiC patty. . v B GET Rl i . The Blanton Duncan party secms to Bave cowe to thegcogﬁcldc;ng that some body has piloted the Democratic ship upon the rocks ; that several holes have been knocked into - its bo!tom, big emongh to admit not-only a vast ‘amount of water, ‘but ‘such deep 'sea mousters as Horace Greeley, Charles Sumner, Carl Schurz, N P. ‘Banks, aod some millions of other Liberal Republicans, and that Blanton -Duncan’s' party is now called upon to pump out the'ship, stop the holes, throw the Liberal Republicans overboasd, and: start out on a fresh voyage—expecting here and there to capture ‘some one who believes that Grant ought to be defeated and who desires to vote for Greeley, but who can be wheedled into Blantan Dun--can’s party,thereby. increasing the chances of Grant’s success. This policy the Grant bull pup organs applaud, for everyivote taken from Greeley is_just as valuabilc us, il it was given to Grant.. Colouel Blin ton Duncan’s party professes not. to see this, possible they do not, we are disposed to be Jenient and to accord ‘all that is demanded for short sightedness, © Bat it is a fact, nevertheless, that the success of Colonel ‘Blanton Duncaun’s party js to the same extent the succéss of the Grant party, and it ought to be understood that if Grant's administration ‘deservdg the condemnation of the American people, those who aid his re election muast not expect to escape the odium which fpmpéﬂ"y'?ﬁﬂ%éh_e&f “to those who labor to perpetuate errov.— Louisville Ledger, Aogust 15,5 .

_ A Mid-air Compromise. /J ; - Not-many years ago, and not far frous the city of Elmira, at & Jwaghapwn as the “Feargle College.” the- circumstances ‘we are about to rélate took place. It seems that the principal of the \college overheard a plan among a number of his young lady students for drawing a young gentleman up to one of the third story rooms “inl 8 basket at night," as no gen- - tlemen suitors were permitted to visit ‘their college lady loves,” and see themx alone, under strict rules of the institution. . The principal acted #ccordingly, and at - ‘the appointed time was on the designated spot, and when the basket was let down, took the lover's:place, gave the “signal switch,” and commenced going up toward heaven, drawn by a trinity of angels. When two thirds up, the angel expectant, on {ooking from the window, diseovered, - to her terror and dismay, that instead of . her lover, sbhe had another man in the ‘basket, and, nearly-frightened out of her wits, muade the facts known to her help.: ers in miscbief, with the pertinent inquiry of “What shall we do? Oh, girls, what shall we do?” Whereupon one of their number, noted for her cuolness and pres- . ence of mind'in trying emergencices, said: “Here you hold on to this cord, now, to just as I tell you,and I'll take care of ° the mangpo matter who he is, or where . ‘he comes from.” S s, . .

A Good Mother. Bok She is a good mother who brivlgs ap her children to iwork in the kitchen if you please. We shall never have good puddings and pies, chow- - der and fricassees, while the ladies are taught that it is a disgrace to learn to cook. The time may not come when the daughters of wealth shall be obliged to take their stand in the kitchen but should they not know how to bake and wash? What is'a young woman fit for, whose mother allows her to lie abed until ten, o’clock ; and when she rises sings a song or two, and sits down to the last new novel? She may answer for the wifetof a wealthy fop ; and a miserable life—miserable indeed —will ghe live. Far better for her, no matter what her condition in atter life may be—‘whether she matries a fortune in gold or a fortune in real worth—if she.is brought up to work. Her life in com« parison to one brought up in idleness and folly would be a season of real enjoyment and the influence she exerted would' be glorious indeed. * What mother will be so unwise as to. teach: her daughters that to work is degrading, while lying in bed, dressing in fashion, and reading mere trash, is ¢levating aud dignifying.. ~° . : .
