ANOTHER YEAS.
Another year, another year,
Oh, who shall fee another year?
Shalt thon, old man of hoary head.
Of eyesight dim, and feeble tread r
Except it not ! time, pain and grief.
Have made thee like the autumn leaf,
Ready, by blast or self decay,
From its slight hold to drop away
And some sad morn may gild thy bier,
Long, long before another year !
Another year, another year.
Oh, who shall lire another year?
Shall you, the young ? or you. the fair?
Ah ! the presumptous thought forbear !
Within the churchyard's peaceful bounds.
' Come, pause and ponder o'er the mounds!
Here beauty sleeps that rerdant length
Of grave cont iins what once was strength ;
The child the boy the man are here :
You may not see another year!
Anotheryear. another year.
Oh. who shall see another year?
f ball I, whose burning thirt of fame .
No earth ly power can quench or tame ?
Alas! tbatburning thirst may soon
lie o'er, and all beneath the ir.oon
Al' my' fine visions, fancy wrought
And all this vortex whirl of thought,
Forever cease and disappear,
tre dawns on earth another year !
YOU OAK TAKE MY HAT ! .
We were once traveling over the railroad
from Washington city to Baltimore, when
we observed a peculiar hoi t of man sitting
hard by a tall, s-lini, good natuied fellow,
but one who somehow seemed to bear the
impress of a person who lived, by his wits,
writtenon his face. A friend, who was with
me, answered my inquiry as ro who he was,
and at the same time asked me to kfeep be
tween the object of niy notice and himsvlf
lest he should come over to our seat, as my
companion said that he knew bins, but did
not wish to recognize him here.
That is Beau II said he, "a
ni3n that is universally known in Washing
ton as one of the niost accomplished fellows
in the city, always ready to borrow of, or
drink with you. He never has any money,
however, and I am curious to know how he
will get over the road without pajing, lor
tie" il do it some way."
'Trobably he has go a ticket borrowed
the money to buy it with, or something of
that sort," said 1.
"Not he. Beau always travels free, and
boards in the same way. He never pays
money when wit or trick will pass current
in its tdace," said my friend, confidently.
"What a shocking bad hat he has got on,"
F$id I, observing the dilapidated condition
of his beaver.
"It's some trick of his, doubtless, for the
rest of Ills dress, yon observe, is quite gen
teel." ,
"Yes, I see."
My iriend went on to tell me how Beau
find done his tailor out of a receipt in full
1'-r his last year's bill, and the landlady at
his last boarding place, and also various
other specimens of his ingenuity and wit.
'He owed me ten dollars," said my friend,
"but in attempting to collectit of him one
iky, I'll be hangedif he didn't get ten more
mitof me, so I think I shall let the matter
rest there, for fear of doubling the sum once
more."
At this moment the conductor entered
the opposite end of the ear to gather the
ti kcts from the passengers, arid give them
checks in return. Many ot them, as is of
ten, the practice with travelers who are fre
quently called upon on populous routes to
hhow their tickets, had placed theirs in the
bands of their hats, so that the conductor
could see that they were all right, and not
trouble them to take them from their pock
ets at each stopping place. 1 watched Beau
to see what his expedient would be to get
1 id of paying for his passage. As the con
ductor drew nearer, Beau thrust his head
out the ear window, and seemed absorbed in
contemplating the scenery on that side of
the road. The conductor spoke to him for
his ticket there was no answer. "Ticket,
nr," said the conductor, tapping him light
ly on the shoulder.
Beau sprang back into the car, knocking
his hat into the road, and leaving it in one
minute nearly a mile behind. He looked
first towards the conductor, then out of the
window after his hat, and in a seeming fit
ol race exclaimed :
' -'What the d 1 do you strike a man that
way for? Is that your business? Is that
what the company hires you for?"
"I beg your pardon, sir, I only wanted
lour ticket," replied the conductor, meekly.
"Ticket! Oh, yes, it's all very well for
you to want my ticket, but I want my hat!'
replied Beau, bristling up. .
"Very sorry sir, really. I barely desired
o call your attention, and I took the only
"wans in ray power," said the conductor.
"You had better use a cane to attract a
person s attention next time, and hit him
uver the head with it if he happens to be
'''ookinsr the other way 1" replied the indig
nant Beau.
"Well, sir, I am ready to apologize to you
again if you wish. I have done so already
once." said the now disconcerted official.
"Yes, no doubt, but that don't restore
'property, that's gone." ,
"Well, sir, I cannot talk any longer, 1 II
fcke your ticket, if you please," said the
"Ticket ? naven't you knocked it out of
we window, hat and all ? Do you want w
insult to injury ?" ' ,
" Oh, your ticket was in the hat band :
gpested the conductor.
"Suppose you stop the train and go back
see,"' said the hatless Beau, with indig
ent scorn ilpr.iited on his face.
"Well, sir, I shall pass you free over the
then, replied the conductor, attempt
n'S to eo on with bis dntv.
"The nrW of & ticket " said Beau, is
one dollar, uiv beaver cost me a V. . Your
j!)od will at once show you that there
is a balance of four dollars in my favor, at
any rate."
The conductor hesitated. Beau looked
like a gentleman to any one not perfectly
well posted up in the human face ; he was
well dressed, and his indignation appeared
most honest.
"I'll see you after I have collected the
tickets," replied the conductor, passing on
through the car.
Beau sat in silent indignation, frowning
at everybody until the conductor returned,
and came and sat down by his side. Beau
then, in an earnest undertone that we could
only overhear occaionally, talked to the con
ductor "like a father," and we saw the crest
fallen man of tickets pay the hatless passen
ger four dollars.
The trick was at once seen through by
both my friend and myself,and the next day,
overabottle of wineatthe Monument House,
Beau told us he was hard up, hadn't a dol
lar, picked up an old hat at Gadsby's hotel
in Washington, clapped his cap in his pock
et, and resolved that the hat should carry
him to Baltimore ; and it did, icith four dol
lars in the bargain.
' Democratic Doctrine.
There was lately commenced a systematic
effort to extend far and near the circulation
of the La Crosse Democrat ; and the result
has been a circulation which Pomroy.tho ed
itor, claims is second to only one political
newspaper in this country. It would be un
fair to aver that there are not in the demo
cratic party those who utterly condemn this
man and his paper ; it is nevertheless true
that the large circulation has been obtained
on the score of the soundness of the paper
as a Democratic organ and preacher of una
dulterated Democratic doctrines. With
these remarks we quote the following from a
late number of the Democrat.
"We tell you, Radicals and traitors, your
tool shall never enter the Presidential Man
sion, elected by negro votes. If this be
treason make the most of it. But bear in
mind that it is treason held by two millions
of white men, icho are ready to fight for
ichite supremacy! God help you, if the
struggle comes ; for spite of the Rump, your
niggers, and all the remaining powers ot hell
at your command, white will win, and there
will be such an ou tpouring of nigger blood,
such a hanging of Radicals to 'sour apple
trees,' as was never known since the world
emerged from chaos !
"In this connection a hint, Democrats.
In 1 80S clubs will be formed in every town
and city in the country. Let these clubs be
composed of men as ready to fight as to vote!
Let them be drilled in the manual of arms
be as conversant with the science of milita
ry tactics as with Democratic principles.
They may not be required to display that
knowledge, but if nigger or Radical killing
should be in order, they will be as ready for
that business as to listen to the inaugural of
a Democratic President on the 4th day
March, 1869."
That the true spirit of latter-day Democra
cy is shadowed forth, in the above extract,
there is little doubt, and is well worthy the
serious consideration of all peace-loving and
law-abiding people. That the men who
sympathized with the recent rebellion, with
Andrew Johnson as a leader, are reckless
and fiendish enough to plunge the country in
to another wicked and causeless war, to ac
complish the destruction of the Union, rather
than be defeated in their selfish desires for
power and place,is becoming more apparent
every day. Then, if the people would frustrate
the designs of these wicked and fiendish
enemies of the country, and avoid another
horrible and destructive war, they must bej
true to the Union and the principles for
which they and their 3ons so gallantly
and manfully battled during the late rebel
lion. Will they remember these facts?
Eemarkable Phenomena.
The Buffalo Courier says : "A letter from
Niagara .Falls gives the following descrip
tion of the remarkable phenomena of low
water at the Falls and elsewhere. Thurs
day last was a wonderful day in the annals
of Niagra Falls. The strong easterly gale
sent the waters of Lake Erie westward,leav
ing the Niagara river and its tributaries
lower than were ever known oetore. Uut
falo Creek was so low that all the vessels
in it were grounded,-and Niagara Falls was
a rivulet compared with its native grandeur.
The bed of the American branch was so de
nuded that you could travel in its rocky bed
without wetting your feet, and mysteries
that were never before revealed came to
light on that day. Rocks that were hereto-
0 . .... , . t - ril
fore invisible appeared in tneir iun grown
deformity upon the surface, and great was
the consternation among tne nnny tnrjes.
The Three sisters were accessible to foot
passengers, and many traversed where hu
man foot had never trod, with perfeet impu
nity and dry feet. Below the Falls was the
wonder of wonders. The water had fallen
twenty feet lower than usual, and the oldest
inhabitants gazed in wonder at the grand
transformation. Near Suspension Bridge
the celebrated rock at Witnier's mill, upon
which a drowning man caught and was res
cued several years ago, which barely pro
jects its head above the water, was laid bare
twenty leet above the surface."
To-morrow may never come to us. We
can net find it in any of oar title deeds. The
man who owns whole blocks of real estate,
and great ships on the seas, does not own a
single minute of to-morrow 1 It is a mys-
;k;i;ttr not ret horn. It is under
the fceal of midnight behind the veil ot
glistening constellation.
A Scathing Letter to Gen. Hancock.
.Hon. J. R. G. Pitkin, haa written a most
Bcathing letter to General Hancock, relative
to his administration of affairs since assum
ing command of the Fifth M ilitary District.
The ostensible purpose of the letter is to re
quest that the recent appointment of the
writer, as Secretary of State, contained in
the suspended order of Gen. Mower, may
not be confirmed. We subjoin a few ot the
more pointed paragraphs :
WThen that appointment was announced
by our local prints no one could have- been
more surprised than myself. I had sought
nothing at the hands of that worthy officer,
and regard for the political friends, whose
opinions I hold dear, will certainly dissuade
me from'ver obtruding upon his successor.
Had the former been continued in command,
I am persuaded that his appointees wou'd
have cordially and materially assisted him
in the labor of reconstruction, and I am
equally certain that not one of them would
have consented to be miserable stewards of
an apostate President. There are rebels.nu
merous and abject enough for this service,
buzzing like wasps about your headquarters
and stinging loyal reputations "dogs easily
won to fawn on any man." The officer who
suffers them, and installs them in public i
place, accepts a desperate risk.
Speaking of other matters, Mr. Pitkin re
marks that "every official indiscretion is a
danger for which the best field credit does
not compensate," and adds :
Il is when a soldier confesses in his initial
order, that the military should defer to a
civil authority, which is forthwith recom
uiittcd to rebel hands, either that he has
suddenly ceased to aspire to high national
ends, or that his patient, waiting since 1861
for a chance to surrender to the enemy is at
least consistent, has not changed its front,
has not forborne its old heresies. That I
cannot capitulate with you suffices as a rea
son why my name hoald no longer be en
tertained at headquarters with reference to
a bureau of this State. Your advent, sir,
has lent renewed cheer to one class of our
people it is a class which, by its practice
upon one Convention, can fondly dream a
grim murder of another now in session in
this city which has already besought our
public trusts for its Monroes and Aells anew,
which impatiently seeks to render loyalty
again a discredit and a peril.and which may
reasonably confide its schemes to him, whose
enviable distinction it is to be not only one
of the five district commanders that" can
discover more force in a mad whim of a
President than in a solemn decree of Con
gress. The writer then refers to the statement
of Gsneral.IIancock, that he "had been in
formed that the administration ot criminal
justice in the courts had been clogged, if not
entirely frustrated, "by negro jurors; and
after remarking that "it is easy to deter
mine whence this information comes" to the
General, adds :
Men. who have just doffed their rebel uni
forms,and as proficients in partisan shames,
have been virtual!' promoted to your civil
staff; men, the final chapter of whose biog
raphy will be, in too many cases, an indict
ment; men to whom the insulted color may
cast back the odium of having defeated the
ends of justice. A doxen hands from which,
sir, yon c mnot wash the red smear of rebel-
linn intr tVirvof oronfr. tr a inrnr'c ontll J1S
they once did to a citizen's. The fidelity of i
their observance of the latter vow is, per
haps, the best reason for 3rour espousal of
the arbitrary jealousy of the jury box.
When, sir, not one ot your local misadvis
ers shall longer crouch at your heels in se
curity from his dues, and wheii a better au
thority than yours shall have declared, as
60on it will, that a temple of justice can
question no color except that of crime, you
will discover that the black juror will neith
er "frustrate nor clog the administration of
justice," and especially of whatsome in this
community may well complain of not hav
ing yet received "criminal justice."
The subject of the Pesidential aspirations
of Gen. Hancock are alluded to, and these
remarks are made :
But some one must soon thrust his feet
into the President's shoes, and your evident
willingness, General, so to be persuaded by
a Democratic nomination excites less solici
tude for the nation than for yourself. To
the American people, however, belongs the
uniform upon your back, and 1 cannot be
lieve they contemplated that it was to be
used through this district simply for the
purpose of a politicalcanvass,with its pock1
ets distended with the summaries of John
sonian speeches, collated in advance at the
White House, and issued here as "general
orders."
Mr. Pitkin concludes his letter in these
emphatic words :
Our present convention has two impera
tive duties to perform first, to rend with
its two bands, white and black,each of your
adverse orders to tatters, to decree every lo
cal post vacant, and to cancel every distinc
tion of race; and second, to place those
hands austerily upon our comm andef'tf shoul
ders, and face to face with, him, with the
firmness of a just defenee, with honor tor
his stars,and in all charity of spirit,distinct
ly to admonish him that the mistaken pur
pose of his embassy, if unfortunate for Lou
isiana, is tenfold more so for himself.

The Democratic Eecord.
Senator Stewart, of Nevada, fired a cen
tre shot in his brief and quick reply to .Gar
rett Davis, of Kentucky, when he said, a
few days ago: .
In the first place, Congress found organi
zations in existence in the South that were
in rebel hands that were persecuting loyal
men that were obstructing the process ot
the law. In fact there were no loyal gov
ernments in the South. How did we com
mence? We commenced by attempting to
relieve the difficulty without negro suffrage.
We passed the civil rights bill. The Presi
dent vetoed it. J t was opposed in the South ;
it was not executed,. Civil rights were de
nied to the negroes, which all the Democrats
now say they ought to have. They say they
will give them civil rights. Why did they
not give them civil rights under the civil
rights bill, and execute that law ? The Pres
ident had vetoed it, and the reasoning of his
veto message was followed by those who
had charge of the execution ot the law.
We then passed a Freedmen's Bureau
bilL That was inoperative except in the
immediate presence of the military comman
ders. The objection made to these meas
ures was that they were unconstitutional.
AH admitted the civil rights bill, butt was
opposed on technical grounds. Congress
then sought to remedy that difficulty, and
how? By proposing a constitutional amend
ment which denied the power ot the State
organizations to deprive any citizen of his
civil rights, with other provisions. This
was submitted to the States; and this was
rejected by the rebels ; rejected by the John
son party ; rejected by the Democrats. They
said they would not give the loyal black
men in the South civil rights; that they
would not have them protected; that they
would not give them the 6id ot the machin
ery otthe Government, that they would not
allow loyal men to be protected in the South.
In other words, they repudiated every prop
osition for constitutionally guaranteeing to
each citizen his civil rights. What was to
be done next? There were in the South a
large mass of people, black and white, who
were loyal to this Government, who wcie
oppressed by this unjust refusal on the part
of the Democratic party and those operat
ing with them, who were denied their civil
rights, to whom there was no protection. It
then became necessary either to provide loy
al governments or surrender the Southern
country to the hands of rebels or rebel sym
pathizers, leaving loyal men unprotected by
any law leaving them to the generosity of
the rebels, who had been exasperated a
gainst the negro and against the Southern
loyalists by our action in suppressing the re
bellion and liberating slaves. Were we to
turn our friends those who had been true
to the Union over to the tender mercies
of those who had made war upon the Union ;
to turn them over to the tender mercies of
their exasperated enemies, who refused to
sanction any law whereby they were to be
protected in their civil rights? What was
done then ? Congress passed reconstruction
acts, whereby they conferred the right of
suffrage, not upon the blacks alor,e,jbut up
on the whites, excludiug a very small class,
whereby they placed in the hinds ot the
oppressed and the persecuted the power of
self-protection. You say that this was un
constitutional. You say this was usurpation.
I am sorry that the President of the United
States has used that argument in view of
his own conduct ; in view of the fact that
he undertook to set up governments himself,
with restrictions which involved the exer
cise of the identical power that Congress has
exercised. There is no party that can say it
is free from the exercise of this powe.r.
This is the Democratic record since the
overthrow of the rebellion. What it was
during the rebellion the people know too
sadly by heart. Sympathy first with seces
sion, and then open co-operation with arm
ed treason, were its constant and its active
characteristics.
The Democrats, then, will appear before
the people next year not only to answer the
awful charge of having aided the enemies
of the Government from the first hour to the
last of the war, but, also, of having opposed
every measure of peace and restoration, as
they were presented by Congress.
And when with this record is connected
the fact that the Democrats will be forced to
take ground against Gen. Grant as the Re
publican candidate for President, we think
they will occupy about as consistent a posi
tion as the enemy of all progress, liberty,
and humanity, as Jefferson Davis himself
could deire. If they made Davis their can
didate for President the record would be
more symmetrical, but not more complete
than it is.
Couldn't Fool Him. I know a nice old
farmer who never had a paper in his house
till he was 50 years of age. His father left
200 acres of choice-land, which he worked as
well as he knew how, and made a comforta
ble living. One spring the Postmaster told
him if he would subscribe for a good agricul
tural paper, read it carefully and work ac
cording to instructions, he would warrant
him to clear one thousand dollars that year.!
On these conditions he paid tor the paper,
read it, worked faithfully, and at the end of
the year he figured up carefully and found
that he had cleared nine hundred and sixty
tbA rasrallv Postmaster
for the other forty, but by some dodge of
the law the villain cheated mm out oi it.
