The Sabbath of Nature. ,
BY A. B. BCKREIX.
Now o'er the mountain pile of green
Which Spring and bummer wrought between
The tinted tree-tops, here and there,
Presage that change, which, everywhere,
O'er mountain, valley, hill and plain,
Will soon o'ersprcad the Bccne again.
The green retires as suns return,
The nights that chill, the days that burn, '
Whilst varying colors still unfold,
The yellow, purple and the gold,
The scarlet, crimson, orange, red,
Succeeding as the green has fled,
Till rain-bow-tinted, glowing bright,
The mountain stand, in heaven's light,
A thing of beauty and of joy,
Where death is working to destroy :
How like the christian's closing day,
Effulgent with a heavenly ray.
. The magic picture, brightens still ,
O'er mountain, plain, and mead, and hill
Until the highest, fullest touch
Of grand magnificence is such
That nature pauses, winds arc still,
The river noiseless and the rill, f
The birds sit motionless, nor dare
To part, with wing, the enchanted air :
No cricket's chirp, no buzz of becs,
No trembling leaf among the tree",
Till nature stands in silence sweet
Her yearly praises to repeat
With softened voice that warms and thrills
Whilst Gratitude her part fulfill.
Their Indian Summer, smoke-veiled noon,
The mellow air, the harvest moon,
The Sabbath of our changing year,
The quiet time when death is near ;
Where is the heart not touched by these ;
The mind that here no beauty sec ?
Who will not, then, with me rejoico
While list'ning to that winning voice
Which speak?, with tendered, kindeet lays,
To bless us on these " softened days V,

The Louisville Journal says of Gov
Vance's speeches in North Carolina :
"Every word weighs a tun." What of
it ? We put Carl Shurz against him
whose "every word" is Teu-ton.
Gen. Grant, when at Chicago, was ask
ed whether Mr. Johnson supports him or
Mr. Seymour. He replied : "I reckon
that when he thinks of Seymour, he is
for mc ; and when ha thinks of me, he is
for Seymour.
"If any man hauls down the American
flag, shoot him on the spot," nobly de
clared Gen. Diz at the outbreak of the
rebellion. Was it because Gov. Seymour
attempted to haul down the flag that Gen.
Diz poured such a tenfice broadside in
to him 7
When Gen. Diz relieved Wool in New
York, in July, 18CS, and was charged
with the ezecution of the Act of Congress
requiring a draft for filling the ranks of
the army, he did all in his power to in
duce Gov. Seymour to aid him with the
State forces. This the Governor refused
to do, as the correspondence published at
the time shows. Gen. Diz was so con
vinced of the Governor's determination
not to aid him in case of need, that he
addressed to the Government an elaberate
argument, to show that the ' President
might call out the New-York militia with
out a requisition on the Governor. The
matter was submitted to the Cabinet.
Gen. Diz's views were approved, and Mr.
Lincoln sent him a proclamation in blank,
to be issued in case of necessity, with di
rect orders on the commanding officers of
the militia. -

piece of information that Mr. George II.
Pendleton voted to pay the bloated bond

It has been reserved for the Republican i
party to pay the debts either contracted
or caused by the Democratic leaders.
John F. Hartranft, as Auditor General.
has been reducing the debt of Pennsylv
ania, accumulated by the Democratic ad
ministrations which held power in the
State, at the rate of a quater of a million
annually. Defeat Hartranft, and our
debt, under Democratic rule, will accu
mulate, instead of decrease, at that rate
annually.
The people should not lose sight of the
importance of keeping an experienced of
ficer at the head of the Land Department,
for it is one of the most intricate connec
ted with the State Government, and the
rights of parties may be seriously affected
by an inexperienced officer. Gen. Camp
bell is an experienced officer, and honest
men of all parties bear testimony that
they receive equal and exact justice at
his hands.
Tax Payers cod farmers interested in
the promotion of agriculture, remember
that through the energy and business
qualifications of Gen. Jacob M. Campbell,
a larger aggregate price per actr was ob
tained for the Agricultural Collage Land
Scrip sold by this State than was obtained
by the other States that sold about the
same time. Democratic authority can be
cited in substantiation of this fact.
The Opposition papers, knowing Gen.
Campbell's strength and that he has been
the most efficient Surveyor General the
State has had, for years, have undertaken
to break him down in the confidence of
the people by the basest kind of misrep
rescntation. Wc, therefore, ask that this
kind of electioneering be hurled back by
the reelection of this tried public servant
by an increased majority.
Voters remember that the administra
tion of the Land Office by Gen. Campbell,
has bcon a live one,' characterized by a
determination to serve the people. For
their accommodation additional forms, to
enable them to deal with the office with
out the expenso of an agent, were added
to the lust report.
The Pittslurg Gazette says: The Re
publican majority on Hartranft and Camp
bell, in the couuties of Pennsylvania oa
the west side of the Alleghanics, will not
be less than 15,000, and may amount to
18,000. Whatever it may, be, it will be
just about the llepubltcau majority in

Wat:h the Democracy on Tuesday.
The last number of The Covington
(Ga.) Examiner contains the announce
ment that "two carpetbag school teachers,
I Lee and Hammond," having "received a
gentle admonition tnattneir vaiuauiescr
vices might posible be more appreciated
in some other latitude, took an afiectionate
adieu of their associates, and on Monday
last turned their faces toward Mason and
Dizon's Line." This is a roundabout
way of stating that the Democrats of Cov
ington threatened to mob these persons if
they did not leave the county. Their
crime was teaching the colored children
the simplest rudiments of education.
This the Covington Democrats do not con
sider a

The Democratic party boast of having
controlled the country for thirty years.
The rebellion underwent an inclubation
of thirty years. When that party could
no longer rale, it resolved to ruin. We
are now reaping the harvest of its tender
ministratious in a load of debt which the
treason of its members forced upon loyal
men,
The Congressmen assembled at Wash
ington are receiving good news from the
South. They are told Xorth Carolina,
Alabama, and Louisiana may already be
considered perfectly safe for Grant and
Colfaz ; and that the Georgia negroes
quite naturally are less disposed than
of late to co-operate with their "old friends
and masters."
Make a note of it and vote accordingly
that the administration of Gen. Camp
bell has brought up the unfinished busi
ness of all his predecessors in the Land
Office, and that the people will be incal
culably benefitted by this work in pcrfact
ing the titles to their land and the State
Treasury enriched by over a million of
dollars.
Remember that the only fund the Sur
veyor General controls is a small sum, ap
propriated annually for contingent expen
ses and that of this fund, according to the
showing of the opposition. General Camp
bell expended nearly SjUO a year less
than his Democratic predecessor.

Fair men of the Democratic party have
borne testimony that connected drafts,
copies of surveys, and all other official
locumcnts obtained from the Surveyor
Generals Office, during the administration
of Gen Campbell, with more neatness cor
rectness and prompt ness than heretofore.
Tax Payers remember that the adminis
tration of General Campbell will save the
State Treasury about $20,000 this year by
transcribing the list of Liens under act of
4th of April, 1BG8.

Thirty Thousand Women in ths Hep
Fields. It is estimated that thirty thousand
women are now engaged in picking hopS"
in the state of Wisconsin. Immense
trains of fears were required to convey
them to the hop picking region, and tho
scense as thousands of women wereland--ing
at the depot were novel and pict
uresque in the extreme : At least ten
thousand passed tnrough Portage City.
Alocal paper describes the advent of thev
merry crowd as follows :
"The first installment by cars, somer'
three hundred, came last Thursday even-
ing. Wednesday evening nearly one
thousand came. Thursday and Friday
evening each five or siz hundred. Saturday
afternoon it was remored that a very large'
number were on the way, and the rumor
was corroborated by the great number of
teams that seemed to be in waiting.
About train time half past seven pro
bably one thousand persons had collected
at the depot to witness the arrival It
was then found that the cars were two
hours behind time, and that instead , of
one train, two were coming with twenty
eight cars loaded. When the two hours'
were up, the crowd at the depot had in
creased ; and this with the acres of two
and four-horse wagons, about the depot
and the music and fun of the merry drt"
vers, formed no small preliminary show'
of itself. But as the two trains came
thundering along, and as they stretched
themselves away beyond and away back
of the depot and stopped, excitement was
on tip-toc. And when two thousand5
pickers began to pour out of every door
of those twenty-eight cars, the scene beat'
all other western shows. Cheering, laugh
ing, singing, shouting! Admirable coo-'
fusion no disorder. Sections of tens',t
platoons of twenties, companies of forties,,
all officered, moving in every possible di
rection ; corporals guiding their squads y
captains giving orders to their companies;,
marching and countermarching direct
and in echelon forming camp and break
ing camp ; armed and equipped with um
brealls, parasols, satchels, baskets, band
boxes, bags, bundles, babies I Teamsters
shouting for their loads rush for the wa
gons tumbling in ! all formed a scene
to beat any army camp or movement
We can't do justice to the subject.
"But great as was the display on Satur
day evening, it was more than matched
on Monday evening ! We have no means
of knowing exactly how may came on the
two trains, but from the best information
we can get, we put the number attwentj
five hundred.

St. Louis iLrjiuhliean tries to break the
force of General Dix's letter by saying
that "General Dix has not acted with the
Democratic party proper since the war
began in 1SG1." That is perfectly true.
From the moment the war began, Gen
eral Dix has been on the side of his coun
try ; and of course he could not act witb
the Democratic party. That party was
either actively aiding the rebellion in the
field, or giving it aid and comfort by its
political action at the North. It was op
posing the Government denouncing the?
war as unjust and unconstitutional re
sisting the draft assailing the publio
credit, r.nl in crery conceivable way crip
pling its endeavors to suppress the rebel
lion. As a matter of course, General
Dix did cot act with it.
We met Gov. Curtin in town on Sat'

will give such a majority for the Repub
licans in October as will crush the hope'
out of all opposition to Grant in Novem
ber, who, he predicts, will then carry the
State by not less than 50,000. He does
not regard the canvass as the work of poli
ticians, but of the people, who are deter
