Falling with softest murmer Into the heated brain ; Pouring its gushing life-drops Down on the parching sod ; Making each flower and grass-blade Spring up to worship God. Beautiful rain of Summer! Never was strain so sweet As thy refreshing murmur After the dust and heat. O! how the cold drops patter Down on the thirsting earth, Calling a thousand memories Up to a second birth. How the dear days of childhood Come with their rainbow hues ! How thy prismatic colors Brighten the faded views! How the dear, vanished voices Sound on the heatt again, LliDgling with thy sweet chorus Beautiful Summer ra'm ! Beautiful rain of Summer! Bringing the welcome breeze ; Washing the dut of the city Off from the grateful trees : Rippling down the gutters, Gambling down the eaves, Dropping a shower of diamonds Over the emerald leaves ! Filling the lowly washtub Full of the pearly flood ; Easirg the weary shoulder. Cooling the heated blood : Blessing the black man's hovel, Blessing the herds and flcks, Spreading the soft green mosses Over the barren rocks. Gushing as from Mount nareb, Stiuck by our Father's wand. Bringing a flood of blessing Over the scorching land ; Drenching the parching valley. Soothing the bed of pain. Filling the world with beauty- Beautiful Summer rain ! Beautiful rain of Summer, Falling like words of love. With thy delicious music, - Down from the heavens "above : Where is the thankless spirit. Where is the hardened brain. Lifting no glad thanksgiving For the refreshing rain ? God of the blessed rain drops ! God of the boundless sea! Give me a thankful spirit Ever lo worship Thee, Thanks to the clouds of morning, Thanks for the ripened grain. And the love that falls on the spirit Like the blessed Summer rain ! A Shrewd Editok. At a Welsh celebration in New York, Dr. Jones told the following amusing anecdote : " The ppcaker said the editors were like other ehrcwd men who have to live with their eyes and ear open. He related the story of an editor who started a paper in a new village in the West. The town was infested with gamblers whose pre sence was a source of annoyance to the citizens, who told the editor that if he did not come out against them they would not patronize his paper. He replied that he would give them a smasher' next day. Sure enough his next issue contained the promised smasher.' On the following morning the redoubtable editor, with scis sors in hand, was seated in his sanctum cutting out news, when in walked a large man with a club in his hand, and demand ed to know if the editor was in. No, sir, was the reply, he has stepped out ; take a seat and read the papers ; he will return in a minute.' Down sat the indig nant man of cards, crossed his legs, with his club between them, and commenced reading a paper. In the meantime the editor quietly vnmooscd down stairs, and at the landing below he met another ex cited man with a cudgel in his hand, who asked if the editor was in. 'Yes, sir,' was the prompt response. lou will find him seated up stairs reading a newspaper.' The latter on entering the room, with a furious oath commenced a violent assault upon the former, which was resisted with equal ferocity. The fight was continued until they both rolled to the foot of the stairs, and pounded each other to their hearts content" The Bishop of W'urtzburg once . asked a sprightly 6hepherd boy : "What are you doing here, my lad T 'Tending swine." "How much do you get !" "One florin a week." "I also am a shepherd," continued the Bishop, "but I have much better salary." 'That may all be, bat then I suppose yoa have more swine under your care, innocently replied the boy. distributed ALIKE, UPON THE The Douglas Monument. ; The first section of the monument -is now about half completed. The foun dations are entirely finished, and the tomb is partially complete. The struct ure has been carried up to about the height of seventeen feet. When completed" it will be one hundred feet in height The diameter of the circular platform base is fifty-two feet, and two and a half feet high. Another base, with steps the same the sides concave or curved inwards, also two and a half feet high is laid upon the circular base. The sepulchre, with four projecting pedestals standing out from the corners, and connected by archways 13 twenty feet square and eleven feet high, with walls five feet thick. It has an arch ed ceiling and a chamber within, ten feet square. In the center is a 6arcophaus, or receptacle, for the remains of Douglas, which will be visible through a bronze door, six feet and a half high and three feet wide. Resting upon the sepulchre is a pedestal twenty-one feet high, with a base fifteen feet square, lapping upon and supported by the walls of the tomb. A complete column, forty-three feet in length, six feet at the base, and three and a half feet at the top, is placed on the pedastal. A cap and spear six feet high forms the cap and base for a colloesal bronze statue of Douglas, twelve feet high. Surrounding the sepulchre will be four seated symbolical figures, life-size, of light marble, one representing Illinois holding a medallion likeness of Douglas. 11 y the side is a sheaf of wheat and the State arms. I he oilier is America, with the shield ; History, reclining on a tablet, and Fame, with the wreath and the trum pet Over the entrance stands an eagle, and on the base of the pede stal above are four bas-reliefs, representing the progress of civilization in t he West : First, the Wil derness, with Indians hunting, and their wigwams in the distance ; then the pioneers with the cabin, men ploughing and cut ting down trees ; then Commerce, repre sented by a ship, bales, and boxes, and Science, represented by the locomotive, the railroad, and tho telegraph. The fourth relief renresents Education, by a group of children and a school-master, with the Capitol building and a church in the distance. The statue represents Douglas as stand ing by the Constitution and the Union, the fasces', or Union by his right, and the Constitution in his left hand. The speakers stand, at the inauguration ceremonies, will be erected immediately beside the monument, and will accommo date about seven or eight hundred people. This will be reserved exclusively for mem bers of Congress and other distinguished individuals who come to take part in the ceremonies. In front of the stand will be accommodations for about sixty report ers. The space in front of the stand will afford plenty of room for the many thou sands who will be present listening to the addresses, and the nature of the ground will render the voices of the speakers per fectly audible to those who may be forced to take their positions a considerable distance from the stand. At each corner of the grave will be erected a pillar about thirty feet in height. r rom these uprights will spring four arches, which will be draped with black and white, and festooned with roses. Hound the base of the pillars will be arranged a num ber of flags, and all tho way up they will be draped with black and white, and with wreaths of roses and nags. I he grave will be covered with natural flowers. In front of the grave will be placed upon a pedestal Volk's splendid marble bust of Douglas, and model of the monument. There will be no other decorations of any kind on the groud. These form the pt'ncipal part of the preparations that have yt been made for the great occasion. w nater other ar rangements remain to be made-date more particularly to the programme to118 car ried out on the day. If ever there vas a time when the people might hope for fa vorable weather, it will be on the coming Cth of September, which will in any case be sure lo prove a memorable one in ine annals of the city. Chicago Post. C3" The world is governed theoretically by the jury-box and the ballot-box ; but in reality by the cartridge-box and the band-box. A young widow of Memphis ad vertises for furnished rooms, for two small children and herself, in payment for which she was willing to board with the family. Cigar-shaped railroad trains are suggested as a means of decreasing the atmospheric resistance, which is said to much retard the speed of trains on the present plan. HIGH AND THE LOW, THE RICH AND Procession of Negro Worshipers. "Toots," chief-marshal of the nigger heads after circulating flaming hand-billa for the last two weeks, and having the drum corps to parade our streets early this morning was totally unable to get any thing like a crowd together to go to Me chanicsburg, to hear that modern brain less humbug John W. Geary. The entire procession formed in Third street in front of the Garnet League-rooms. A friend from our door counted 78 persons, we counted only 72, including drum corps, and all the boys and strappers con nected with the affair. Of these, more than three-fourths were from country towns. "Toots," looked bad, he had been put to great expense and trouble, and confidentially expected that the town would turn out in its might. But, every body knows that Geary is below par with the republicans here. None but those who swallow the negro whole, would turn out, while dozens of true men of their party repudiate the free suffrage candi date, and though free transportation, free meals, and other inducements were ottered less than thirty men from Ilarrisburg could be induced to join the procession. It is well known, that the speech of Geary (if a speech it can be called,) at the Lo chiel Iron Works in which he boldly ad vocated FREE SUFFRAGE, NEGRO F.QUAUTV &c , has disgusted the people everywhere. The "hero" don't take in this vicinity. " They've heard Thad's whip in Congress crack. They've seen the " niggers " at his back, He hates the White and loves the Black, And that's what's the matter. But dont you hear the White Man shout ? Old Thad and Geary are played out. And the great Fifteen have got the Goidl And that's What's Vie Matter." Patriot and Union, Harrisburg. Facts ix Natcral Histort The rattle-snake finds a superior foe in the deer and black-snake. Whenever a buck discovers a rattle-snake in a situation which invites attack, he loses no time in preparing for battle. He makes up to within ten or twelve feet of the snake, and leaps forward, and aims to sever the body of the snake with its sharp bifurca "ted hoofs. The first onset is most com monly successful ; but, if otherwise, the buck repeats the trial until he cuts the snake in twain. The rapidity and fatali ty of his manoeuvers leave but a slight chance for its victim either to escape, or to inject his poison into his more alert an tagonist. The black-snake is also more than an equal competitor against the rattle-snake. Such is the celerity of motion not only in running, but in entwining itself round its victim, that the rattle snake has no way of escaping from its fatal embrace. WThen the black and rattle-snakes are about to meet for battle the former darts forward at the height of his speed, and strikes at the neck of the latter with unerring certainty, leaving a foot or two of the upper part of his body at liberty.' In an instant he encircles him, within five or six folds; he then stops and looks the strangled and gasping foe in the face to ascertain the effect pro duced upon his corseted body. If he show signs of life, the coils are multiplied and the screws tightened the operator all the while narrowly watching the coun tenance of the helpless victim. Thus the two remain thirty or forty minutes the executioner then slackens one coil, no ticing at the same time whether any signs of life appear; if so, the coil is resumed until the incarcerated wretch is complete ly dead. The moccasin-snake is de stroyed in the same way. Abuse of the soldiers. Geary in a recent speech at York, said that the sol diers who assembled at Ilarrisburg on the first of August, were "Shysters and ! Cowards, Skulkers and Hospital Bum mers." To say the least of it, -such language was very unbecoming in one who aspires to the dignified position of Governor of Pennsylvania. But what Bhall be said of a man who applies such epithets to the bravest of the brave, sitaply because they do not choose to cast their votes for him ? For instance, take the representatives of our own county in that Convention. Who will dare to re peat what Geary has said, in regard to Thos. II. Lyons, Lawrence Defibaugh, Philip Huzzard, Jeremiah Thompson and Philip Leonard? these men served from the beginning of the war to its close, and did their whola duty wherever their pres ence was required, whether in the ex hausting march, in the deadly breach, or amid the dangers and horrors of the field of battle. Let the soldiers remember how Geary has slandered their comrndei. - B'dpord Gatette. THE POOR. VOL. 13 NO. 27. Radicausm Exploding. We call attention to the infuriated resolutions adopted by the Pennsylvania Radicals in their Convention at Heading, on Wednes day. "The man made President by J. Wilkes Booth," is their decorous designa tion of the President of the United States, and they speak of the Democratic party in language equally dignified and tasteful. This brutal ferocity is excited because th President adheres to the policy proclaimed to the world by both houses of Congress the first year of the war, founded on tb explicit language of the Constitution of the United States, and cordially indorsed, by the most respected statesmen of the country and the most brilliant soldiers of the war. It is the policy of General Grant, as well as of President Johnson, which calls forth this torrent of indecent virulence and vituperation. It has been publicly sanctioned by eminent jurists like Judge Curtis, who pronounced tho ad mired dissenting opinion in the Dred Scott case, and Thomas Ewing, the ablest surviving contemporary of Webster and Clay, to whose school of politics he be longed ; by accomplifcbcd scholars and statesmen, like Mr. Winthrop and Wil liam C. liivcs: by eminent citizens re markable for their moderation, good judgment and great stake in the public tranquility, like Hamilton Fish and Wil liam B. Astor ; and, though hist not least, by the distinguished generals who have signed tho call to the great Soldiers' Con vention. And it is men like these, who, together j with the President, are aspersed in such blackguard langnage by such fellows a John W. Forney and his malignant Radi cal confederates. N. Y. World. A Rich Sermon. Where is the man with a harp of a thousand strings ? The following extract from a sermon will be recognized at a glance by 6omo readers here at home. It loses much of humor, because we cannot put in the ap propriate gestures that accompany it : "My fiiends, sin makes the purtiest young man in the world ugly-ah. And I tell you how I know-ah. I was coming up to church to-day, when I saw some men in the road.nh, and though one of them, the purtiest young man I ever saw in my life-ah. And as I drew nigh unto a place they called taw, and they mavel-ed-ah. And when he marveled, he jump ed up and flapped his hands like a rooster, does his wings and says, I wish I may be d d if I haint l'at-ah ! And oh, my friends, then I thought that he was tha ugliest mar. I ever saw in ray life-ah. And I opened my mouth and spake unto him thus: Sajs I, 'young man, this is not the way to salvation. "And he said' 'Look here old boss, if you had been salivated as bad as I was, you would not love to hear talk of sa'va-tion-ah. "And now, my fiiends, if that 3'oung man said he was fat he told a lie, for ho was lean as that hungry-looking sister over thar, that's always praying so pious ly when the hat is being passed around ah. "And, my friends, if that young man had not bocn blinded by sin, he never could a mistuck mc for an old hoss-ah." The Printer's Litany. From want of gold, from wives that scold, from maid ens old, by sharpers "sold" preserve us ! From foppish sneers, mock auctioneers, and woman's tears deliver us ! From stinging flies, coal llach eyes, babies' cries, protect us! From seedy coats, protested notes, and leaky boots protect us! From breaking doors, a wife that snores, and all such bores, deRnl us! From the landlord's hand, a greedy band, now infesting our land preserve us ! From a solid take, which is our fate, sometimes to partake henceforth deliver us ! From making pi, which does annoy and our tempers try prevent us ! During the past few years the Radicals mobbed, exiled, or massacred hundred of white freemen of the Republic who claimed JLe right to exercise the liberty of speech and the freedom of the press. Then, at all times and under all possiblo circumstances, as they do at present, the Democracy disapproved of and denounced all such revolutionary and criminal prac tices. Now, when a great dread comes over the Radicals, and they causelessly fear the goring of their own ox, they agree with the Democrats that such things are brutal, barbarious and infamous. A Reward Secured. Two burglars were captured a week ago at Aquia Creek, Va., by detectives from Washington, who received a reward of five thousand dollars for apprehending them from a large estab lishment in Boston, whose store these men had lately rchbod.
