' TIM NEW YEAR.
With. the twilight of Thurmiey WIC
the shidows of time closed on 1868—
the old year, whose familiar earner.
als seemed almost to have inteiwo-
yen themaelvea with imr very lifeom
day by day they noted the passage of
qnr fears and attempts and deeds and
hopes:
The conventionalities of the day,
demand - a bohsterone salute to the
new-comer, bat it is dowbtfol if they
are not the prompting of i s forced and
unnatural merriment.'Th4aileitones
of time rarely are countedli \ lh solid
pleasure. The spring tinie ows less
of brightness ; every yea4 \ .and the
snows of winter grow ghastlier and
colder in their whitenees ‘ with each
succeeding season. Men fights with
fate the unequal battle, and row by
year, as helolds the ever-weakening
lines, drinks by order and rolls the
hollow drums Of mirth to conceal his
loss and aura decay.
' But let the dead bury their dead,
and the past braid its own immor-
Wiles and garlands._ Today we
sand on the threihold of en impa
tient year, bright with hope and full
of promise. Let us render it the ho
mage of Custom, doubtless the child
Of a wise expediency.
As a nation we take with 1869
new start and hold in our own hands
the reins of destiny. With the disap
pearing traces of the' graves and
earthworks die out the passions and
cancers of the war, perpetuated so
long only by the indiscretion of an
Adminietration of which good men
cannot yet speak in measured terms.
A new Administration, in sympathy
and unison with the people, ensures
the smooth working of the wheels of
government and promises peace and
confidence. With these come indus
try and plenty and prosperity, the
brave ring of axe and anvil through
out the land and the cheerful song of
the reaper.
Froin indications, which already
thicken until they 'almost take the
form oE promise, we have the right
to expect among the gifts and boun
ties of the New Year,
I A good crop, North, South, and
West.
The settlement of our national fi•
nancial position.
An honest and economical adminis
tration of the Government
Peace at home and abroad, with all
the attendant host of blessings which
follow in its train.
For these grand hopes—for the
mercy of being allowed to look' for
ward to the speedy consummation of
such great good,and to strive towards
such glorious ends—let us be 4evont
ly, and if it is our wont, demonstrat
ively thankful. Few of the opening
Years have broken under a more ens

Euxors.—lt is now confidently as- ,
serted that both Turkey and Greece
will participate in the Peace Confer:
ence, which will be held in Paris on
the 9th inst. It is stated that the
Turkish Minister of Foreign Affairs,
Fuad Pacha, will representlis Gov
eminent, and that Alexander Riza
Rangabe, an,emirtent Grecian poet,
will, represent Greice. Should the
Conference-fail to agree upon a basis
of settlement, and bring about peace,
it is said that Russia will demand
strict non-intervention on thkpart of
the European Powers. It is reported
that the Turkish Admiral has for.
molly demanded , the surrender of the
Greek steamer Eaosts,and war is con
sidered inevitable.
The recent disttithances at Malaga,
in Spain, ere more serious than
heretofoye reported. Gen. Kadahad
had a sharp fight with the rebels in
the atieets of the city, and tha war
vessels in the harbor took part in the
engagement. It is stated that the
official reports place the loss of the
insurgents at four hundred.
The Emperor of France has instruc
ted the Spanish ,Envoy to convey to
his Government the warmest wishes
both of himself personally and o
France for its happiness and pros•
perity.
The workingmen of Lambeth pre•
rented Mr. Reverdy Johnson with an
address on Saturday evening, in re
turn for which that gentleman favor
ed them with a few remarks.
sir The Freedmen's Bureau is
now blotted out—excepting the De
partment of Education, which still
continues in existence. A year ago
Congress provided for its-termination
within the year 1888, and though an
effort was made a few weeks since
to secure its continuance, no action
was taken on the subject before the
holidays; and so it has expired by
limitation. No attempt will be made
to revive it again when Congress
again meets, and consequently its
history can now be written.
sir The electors of Georgia failing
to meet and cast their votes for SST
non and Bunk on the first Wednes
day in December, their votes are ne
cessarily lost and the democratic as
pirants lose the empty honor of re
ceiving the-electoral vote of a State
which was carried for them by vio•
lance and fraud. The democrats feel
sore at missing what was so disgrace
fully won.

h'he assembling of the present legislature
be an °weaken of unusual interest, firm the
fact that alniost 'one of the first acts to be.
performed; is the election of. a fienietor to
succeed Mr. BIICILAISW. The orrodzstron
of the House was supposed.t° have; an im
portant influence upon the dinsisionnf the
Senatorial question, and the contest for
Speaker has been lively for some weeks.—
Two candidates for the gpeikershlp have
been prominent. Mr. sra,Mo, of Tioga
county, and Mr. CLunr,of Philadelphia .—
The former was alleged to be in the especial
interest of Mr. ors, of 'Philadelphia,
whale Senatorial aspitations were to he aid
ed by-his election. Th4latter wad a can

and was supported with seal by the, Guess

United States Senator are here, marshal
ling the forces, and endeavoring td advance
the interests of the persons Ira used for that
high position. Of the result; it is =possi
ble to speak with any degree of certainty.
It is generally...conceded that the election
of Mr. - Ozow would be generally received
with morifavor, than that of any other man
named. He is recognised ee the represen
tative of the radical, live, earnest Republi
cans of the State ; whilehie honesty and
integrity are admitted on all hand's. The
West presents MooszezzAmzenteuiz,, Sono-
MILD and others Who have each their warm
supporters, and as yet there' are no indica
tions which point certainly to the rearm.—
It is generally o onceded, that never before
was a Senetorialnleo lion in such le state of
uncertainty. ' I
The rend* position of I the gown's
contest ,has caw .together an unusually
large number of the politicians of the State.

The North is well represented her. The
Mends of Mr. Gnaw from Tioge, 113radford

the =salmons voice attar people, and Co
ask that our Republican; Majorities shall
nave some weight in eheolding the question.
May good Republicans from othersections
of the State, have she come volubtanly to
press the importance of his election, as a
measure celculated to advance the welfare
of the State, and the interests of the Beepab-;
