THE DEATH OF SUMMEK.
By the lengthening twilight boor;
By tb chill and fragrant showers;
By the flow'rcU pale and faded :
By the loves with russet shaded ;
Ey tb gray and eloaded morn;
Hj the drooping ears of corn ;
By the meadows oTerspread.
With the spider's wavy thread ;
T.j the soft and shadowy iky ; -
hj the thousand tears that lie
On every weeping bongh beneath
Simmer, we perceive thy death.
Summer, all thy charms are past;
Summer, thco art wasting fast;
fcarcely one of all thy roses
On thy faded brow reposes.
Thrash and nigbtengale have long
Ceased to woo thee with their song;
And, on every lonely height,
Swallows gather for their flight,
While the wild wind's dreary tone,
Sweeping through the valley lone,
Sadly sighs, with mournful breath.
Keqaiemafor sweet Summer s death-
THE BEST WIFE IN THE WOSLD.
' The best wife in the world!" said Her
bert! Ainscourt.
"Of course I dare say," responded Mr.
IVtctoss. ''But what's your idea of the
lut wife in the world? Jones savs he's
got the best wife in the world because she
keeps his stocking darned, takes hiit) to
church three times on Sunday, aud never
lets him have an hour of hi. own. Jenkins
iys he's got the same identical article, but
she keeps all the money, draws his salary
fr him and makes him live in the back
kitchen because the parlor wa.s too good for
the family to uo,"
"Oh j but ll.iisy isn't a bit ogreish a
little submissive, soft-voiced thing that has
nut an idea except what is reflected from me..
I tell you what, old fellow, I'm the master
of my on house; Iconic when I please
an'! b" when I please. Daisy never ventures
on a word of reproach."
"Then you ouht to be ashamed of your
M'!f. hiking uruuiid clubs as you do, dissi
1 aled bachelor fashion."
' Ashamed! what of?"
"Why, I fuppose you owe some duties to
ji.ur nilo? "'
"U'liere's the harm? My wife doesn't
care."
"1'r il.ab'y you think so because she is
quiet and submi.five ; but it she were to
object "
"Object! I'd like to see her."
"Now look here, Aiii-court, your wife
r.iity be a tuixlel wife, hut you certainly are
not a model huband. I'cople arc !cginnui
t talk about the way you neglect that pretty
little lihte eye-I irl. "
'Tl! thank people to tuind their own
bnines. NVgleet her, indeed ! Why,uian,
1 lu ve her a.- I hive my own soul."
"Then why don't you treat her as if you
did?"
"Oh. come rortcross,that just shows what
a regular old bachelor you are. It won't do
to make too much of your wife unless you
want to spoil her."
I'orteross shook his head
"That sounds selfish. I don't like the ring
of tliat metal."
And he went away, Icavintr Ainscourt to
finish his jrauie of billiards at leisure.
"What a regular old fuss-budget Ptirt
vto3 laughed the latter. "Always po
i-iig his noe into somebody else'a business.
There s one comfort I never j ay attention
t' what he says."
Meanwhile Mrs. Ainscoart was sitting
lime in her drawing room, her two little
hit hand locked in one another, and her
fair head shgliriy drooping a delicate little
apple l'.om of a woman, with blue, wist
ful eyes aud curly flaxen hair, looking more
lite a grown up child than a wife of twenty
one summers.
"Oh dear !" sighed Daisy. "It's so dull
. I wish Herbert would couie home,
He never spends any time with me nowa
"J, an! I practice all hS favorite songs
ad read the newspaH?r,so I can talk about
'be thins he's interested in, and try so
trj to be entertaining. It's very strange,
indeed.
Aud then her oval face brightened into
sudden brilliance, and the sparkles stole in
to her T. s ; for her quick ear bad detected
k'r Wland's footsteps on the stairs. The
Dxt moment ho came in.
"el! pot how arc you?" with a playful
tt h of th,: cheik. "There are some bon
"( rjou. Where are my light gloves,
J!ai-v?"
Oh. Herbert! you are not going iOut
Staiti!"
"I iuut, Daisy. There are a lot of fel
,,JW fi'i:iL' to drive to High Bridge, and I
' one (,t the party. You can go over to
a' m a'uer's for dinner, or send for one of
J"it friends, or something. There, p ood-'j-
russs, I'm ; a (j0UCe of a hurry.
And with one careless kiss pressed on the
'tuiverin- damask rose of a inouth. that was
''tuy to him, he was was gone.
vy neither went to his mother's, nor
nt for one of her friend. ' She spent the
venr.e 3 aione p0njerjng on the shadow
"nicb waj fast overgrowing her life.
. "What .,hall I do r thought the little,
W'd, slriukiog wife. 'Oh, what thaU I
"at, child as she was,Dai5y had a strong,
oite woman's heart within her, nor was
' 'on' in coming to a decision.
flfy'" saiJ ner husband to her the
'rtday, "you havn't any objections to my
"ending the Orion Bal Masque ?"
UrtT ma,ked l'alls nice Phwes, Her-
"V
le. everybody goes; only I thought
I'd pay you the compliment of asking you
whether you disapproved or not."
"Can I go with you?"
"Well ahem not Tery well, this time,
Daisy.. You see, Mrs Frenchurch really
hinted so strongly for me to take ber, that I
couldn't help it." .
"Very well," assented Daisy, meekly;
and Herbert repeated within himself the
paeu of praises he had chanted in Mr. Port
ents' ears; "The best little wife in the
world!"
But, notwithstanding all this, Mr. Ains
court was not exactly pleaded, when at the
self same Bal Masque,during the gay ieriod
of unmasking, he saw his wife's innocent
face crowning the picturesque costume of a
Bavarian peasant girL
"Hallo 1" he ejaculated, rather ungra
ciously, "jo;t here ! "
"Yes," lisped Daisy. with a girlish smile.
"You said everybody went. Aud oh, Her
bert, feu' tit nice?"
Mr. Ainscourt said nothing more, but
Mrs. Frenchurch found him a very stupid
companion for the remainder of the eve
ninz.
nc was late at dinner next day ; but late
as he was, he found himself more punctual
than his wife, and the solitary meal was
half over before Mrs. Daisy tripped in, her
cashmere shawl trailing over her shoulders,
and dimpled cheeks all pink with the fresh
wind.
"Am I behind time? Really I'm so
sorry ! But we haye been driving in the
park, and "
"We! Who are tee?" growled her hus
band. "Why, Colonel Adair and I the Colonel
Adair that you go out with so much."
"Now look here, Daisy!" ejaculated Mr.
Ainscourt, rising from the table and push
ing back his chair. "Adair isn't exactly the
man I want you to drive with !"
'"But you go everywhere with him ! "
"I dare say but you and I are two dif
forent persons."
"Now, dear Herbert," interposed Daisy
wilfully misunderstanding him, "you know
I never was a bit proud, and the associates
that arc good enough for my husband are
good Cfough for me. Let me give you a
few more oysters."
Ainscourt looked sharply at his wife.
Was she really in earnest, or was there a
mocking undercurrent of satire in her tone?
But he could not di cide, so artless was her
countenance.
"I'll talk to her about it sometime," wa3
his mental decision.
"Daisy," he said, carelessly when dinner
was over, "I've aked old Mr. Barberry to
come and spend the day with you tomor
row.
"Oh, have you! I'm so sorry, for I'm
engaged out to morrow."
"You! Where?"
"Oh, at Dolujunieo's, I've joined a wo
man's rijthts club, and wc meet there to or
ganize.
"The duce take woman's rights !" ejacu
lated the irate husband.
"Of course I don't believe in theni but
it's the fashion to belong to a club, and
such a nice place to go to evenings. I am
dull here evenings, Herbert."
Herbert's heart smote him, but he an
swered resolutely:
"I log you will give np this ridiculous
idea. . What do women want of clubs?"
"WhatuiendoIsuppo.se."
"But I don't approve of it at all."
" Von belong to three clubs, Herbert."
"That's altogether a different matter."
"But tcA.V is it different ?"
'Hem why? because of course anybody
can sec why it's seJf evident," -
"I uiust be very blind," said Mrs. Ains
court, demurely, "but I coufess I can't dis
criminate the assential difference.".
Herbert Ainscourt said no more, but he
did not at all relish the change that had
lately come over the spirit.pf Diasy's dream.
She did change somehow. She went out
driving, here, there and everywhere. . He
never knew when he was certain of a quiet
evening with her; she joined not only the
club, but innumerable societies for a thous'
and purposes, which took her away from
home . almost continually. Mr. Ainscourt
chafed against the bit but it was useless.
Daisy always had an excuse to plead.
Presently, her mother-in law bore down
u pon her, an austre old lady in black satin
and a chestnut brown wig. ., ' ..,
, "Daisy, you are making my son wretch
ed. " . j,
' "Am I ?" cried Daisy. "Doar me I had
n't auy idea of it. . What's the trouble ?"
"You must ask him yourself," said the
taother-in-law, who believed sensible old
lady in young married people settling their
difficulties themselves. "All I know is the
bare Iact." ,',-
' ! So Daisy went down to the drawing room,
where Herbert lay on the sofa pretending
to riad, but in reality brooding over his
troubles. ;
"What's the niiitter, Herbert?' said
Daisy, kneeling on the floor beside httn,and
putting her soft, cool hand on his fevered
brow. ' .
"The matter? Nothing much. only I am.
miserable," he sullenly answered.
"But why ?" she persisted. ..
"Because you are so changed, Daisy."
' "77.W am I changed?"
"You are never at home ; you have lost
the domesticity which was, in my eyes your
greatest charm. I never have you to my
self any more. Daisy, don't yon see how
this is embittering my life?"
" "Does it make you unhappy ?" she asked
softly.
"You know it does, Daisy."
"And do you suppose I like it,Herbert?"
"What do you mean?" he asked.
"I mean that I passed the first year of
my married life in just such a lonesome way.
You have no 'domesticity.' Clubs, drives,
billiard playing, and champagne suppers en
grossed your whole time. I your wife, pined
at home alone." ,
"But why didn't you tell me you were
tinhappy?"
"Because you would have laughed at the
idea, and called it a woman's whim. I re
solved, when we were first married, to frit
ter away neither time nor breath in idle
complaints. I have not complained ; I
have simply followed yoor example. If it
was not a good one, whose fault was that?
Not mine surely."
"No, Daisy, not yours." ;
"I don't like this kind of life," went on
Daisy. "It's a false excitement a hollow
diversion ; bnt I persisted in it for the same
reason, I suppose, that you did because it
was the fashion.' Now tell me, Herbert,
whether yon prefer a fashionable wife or a
Daisy?" .
"Daisy a thousand times Daisy?"
"But Daisy can't get along with a theatre
going, club-loving husband."
"Then she shnll have a husband who finds
his great happiness at his own hearth-stone,
whose wife is his dearest treasure who Las
tried the experience of surface and finds it
unsatisfactory. Daisy, shall wc begin our
matrimonial career anew?"
And Daisy's whispered answer was 'Yes.'
"But what must you have thought of me
all this time?" she asked him, after a little
while.
"I know what I think note."
"And what is that ?"
"I think," said Mr. Ainscourt, with em
phasis, "that yon are the best wife in the
world."

No. 1105 Chestnut Si
To the People of Pennxyhanla :
The appoach of an election for Governor
of the Sate and Judge of the Supreme
Court calls upon us to address you.
That election, although confined to State
officers, may have an effect beyond State
limits, and exercise an important influence
hereafter ou the polities aiid destiny of the
nation.
Arrayed against us, and endeavoring to
secure your votes for its candidates, is the
same Democratic party which was over- j
whe'iuingly repudiated by the people at the
last Presidential election.
It has changed none of its principles, and
reformed none of its j radices, but is as o
dious to-day to all loyal men as it has been
heretofore.
Its Southern wing caused the rebellion,
and strove, by armed force, to rend in twain
that glorious Union which was cemented by
the blood of our fathers. Its Northern
wing gave all the sympathy, aid and com
fort to the rebellion it dare, by resolutions
in its State and National Conventions, and
by the votes of its members in our State
and National Legislatures against all prop
ositions and bills offered by loyal men tend
ing to strengthen the arm of the National
Government in its efforts to crush the re
bellion. 1 ,
That party cati-sed the expenditure of
foui teousand millions of dollars of the pub
is money, and is the guilty author of the
heavy debt that is now pressing down the
national industry.
It is answerable for the blood of half a
million of. loyal men, sacrificed in the effort
to crush out its wickedness, and fur the
wounds and misery of thousands more.
It is responsible for the sufferings and
poverty of the wives made widows, and the
children made orphans at Democratic hands.
In its National Conycntion,"the Northern
wing permitted the Southern rebels, to dic
tate the National Democratic platform and
policy, and has again taken to its arms the
men whose bauds are not yet cleansed of the
blood of Northern patriots.
That party is in favor of free trade in
commerce as fully now as when its Vice
President Dallas gave the casting vote a
gainst American industry, more than twen
ty years ago. .'.
: It favorspractical repudiation of the na
tional debt by paying off interest-bearing
bonds, redcema! le in gold, with irredeema
ble notes, bearing uo interest, and which,
from their excess, would become as worth
less as continental paper. " "
It presents as its candidate for Governor
a man thoroughly impregnated with all
those abominable heresies, who.though rich
beyond the necessities and wants of any rea
sonable man, erades, by disingenuous shifts
and artifices, the payment'of his taxes, and
throws upon the rest of the people of the
State, that share of the burdens of the State
which he is legally bound to bear.
It he should be unfortunately elected, he
will be as "clay in the hands of the potter,"
in the hands of that unscrupulous set of men
too welt known to the State and nation as
"the coffee-pot" Democracy, who have so
persistently endeavored for the last few
years, by wholesale fraudulent naturaliza
tion papers and fraudulent election returns,
to destroy ' the value of the elective fran
chise. It presents as its candidate for the high
est judical office, a 'gentleman unknown to
his profession, and whose limited experience
renders him unable to grapple with the
great questions that are continually present
ed to our Supreme Court'
Such men surely are cot entitled to the
support oi loyal and intelligent freeman.
On the other hand, wo assert that the
Republican paity is the party of loytlty, of
devotion to the Union and to the rights of I
all men. .
It stood by the government in the honr of
its great extremity. Its young men went to
the battle field, and offered up their lives in
defence of the integrity of the Union," while
its opponents stayed at home aud rejoiced in
rebel victories.
Its capitalists, when the credit of the
Government was lowest, offered np their
wealth to support our armies in the field,
and to provide hospitals for the sick and
wounded. . . . ,
It has voted bounties for the soldiers and
provided pensions for the disabled and for
the widows and orphans of the patriot dead,
and is now in the State of Pennsylvania
alone expending half a million of dollars
yearly to educate the orphans of deceased
soldiers.
Recognizing the duty of an enlightened
government to provide for the encourage
ment of the industry of the people, it has
enacted tariffs to prevent undue competi
tion by the pauper laborer of other coun
tries with the labor of the American cit
izen. Regarding the plighted faith of the Gov
ernment as the most sacred of obligations,
it has determined that the debt of the na
tion (except where otherwise agreed upon)
shall be paid in gold to the last dollar.
In the National Administration, it has re
deemed its pledges to the people by dismiss
ing useless office holders, by reducing the
number and expense of the army, and by
paying off in the first six months of its
existence fifty millions of dollars of the
natiotial debt caused by the Democracy, and
with the prospect of paying off five hun
dred millions thereof during Grant's ad
ministration ; while in the State adminis
tration, under the skillful management of
Governor 3eary,it has paid off five millions
of dollars of our State debt, and has reliev
ed the people from all taxation on real
estate for State purposes.
Such are the principles and acts of the
Republican party.
As the representative of these principles
we present to the people as candidate for
Governor, the statesman and patriot, John
W. Geary. His history is well known to
you all. We need not repeat it. His mili
tary exploits are written on the rocks of
Cerro Gordo and the walls of Chepultepec.
They are ascribed on the ridges of our Gettys
burg, on the passes of Wauhatchie, on the
forests of Ringgold anj Missionary Ridge,
aud above the clouds on the heights of Look
out Mountain.
Ild rendered pervice in sixty battles, re
ceived four wounds, aud lost his eldest son
in the service of his country.
He has been scarcely less distinguished
as a statesman, and to his intelligence and
firmness we are indebted for the prevention
ot hasty, unwise and unconstitutional legis
lation, and for the I uui.-liu;ent of murder
ers, whom a less firm executive would have
allowed to escape.
In Judge Williams we present an able and
accomplished jurist, who has sat long ou
the bench, and has had a large and varied
experience, and whose numerous decisions,
supported by the Supreme Court, have been
recognized by that tribunal as being sound
law, and exprcs -ed in a manner worthy of
its high recommendation. In his hands the
rights of the people will be secure.
The election of these two men will be of
vital importance to the people. It will de
stroy the sham pretensions aud professions
of the Democratic party, always arrogant
and never fulfilled. It will establish the
prosperity of the people on an enduring
basis. '
Wc exhort every friend of genuine repub
licanism to go to the polls and vote for
Geary and W illiams. Do not wait to be so
licited. Do not wait for your neighbor.
Do not let an apatetic indifference render
you careless in the exercise of what is not a
mere privilege, lut a duty.
Remember that the election of Geary will
give us an honest administration of State
affairs, whilst the election of a man who
evades the payment of his taxes would be
likely to be the advent to power of dishon
est men. . .
Rememember, too, that the present elec
tion may have an important bearing on the
next Presidential election, and if Pennsyl
vania should now fall into the hands of an
effete and corrupt Democracy it may throw
the next national Administration into the
power of rcbcis,trce traders and repudiators.
A full Republican vote is a full Republican
victory.
Let every patriot do his duty and all will
be well. . John Covode, ; ,

A Milwaukie. man, who deposited one
hundred dollars in a bank and was told the
interest would be five per cent., came at the
end of the year with five dollars in currency
to pay that interest.'' When told that the
five dollars went the other way, he looked
up in astonishment, and he went away won
dering why a man should pay him for being
allowed to take care of his money whole
year. ' .
