PATIENCE.
Hold thou mine hand, beloved, as we sit
Within the radiance of our winter s ure.
iVatchiii!' the daintv shadows as they flit
On wall and ceil ng, as the flames leap higher.
Hold thou mine hand, beloved, wun inecaim,
Close clasp of love, assured and at rest.
And let the peace of home, a blessed baiin.
Follow us, folding faithful breast to breast.
Hold thou mine hand, beloved, while l speak
of all thy love hatb done and borne forme,
The stronger soul supporting still tne weaK,
The good hand eriving royally and free ;
rii render lie:irt that out man's roughness by.
fo wipe weak tears from eyes too seldom dry.
I touch this thing and that, the pretty Kifts,
fhe silver zone, the jeweled linger rug.
t he outward symbols.of a tove that nits
My fate and me beyond life's buffeting.
Yet oh. thrice generous giver! there remains
a thins for which I have nottuanKea tneeyei.
Thy patience through the long years with
their pains
Thy patience with thy weakness and regret.
Ah, let me thank thee now witn la.nug tears.
Tears of great joy, and deep, serene conieiu.
And iod be thanked that through the weary
years
v :iw toetlipr ere onrlifes were lilent.
AltliniK'h the rears were desolate at:d long.
Thy patienee mat -tied thy love and both were
strong.
All the Year Kound.
ADRIFl.
Only some withered blossoms
Crumbling to dry decay ;
Only a glove half worn in two
And idly thrown away ;
Only a heart tha', is breaking
rhat is, if hearts can break :
Only a man a irift for life,
AM for a woman's sake.
Only a few such tokens
Prized by a lovesick fool ;
Naught but the arhes that strew the ground
When love's hot flame grows cool ;
Not the first man by thou-andi
The dupe of a heartless flirt ;
Not the first time that priceless love
Was treated like common dirt.
Only in jest ! Y'ou know it now,
Though it is rather late ;
Rather too late to turu in your life
And eek another fate :
Y'our'e not a man like thousands
With a heart that will veer and twirl
And feel a slow at (he nod and glance
Of every tiLrting girL
Finished forever and ended.
And by a treachroua smile.
Following madly a will-o'-the-wisp,
Happy, if but for awhile ;
Oaly a heart that is broken
That is if hearts can break ;
Only a man adrift for life.

Wk understand certain members of
the committee appointed by tlie Uoard
of Trade are afraid thit paper or some
of the attaches are not iu favor of the
location of the .Soldiers' Home at
Plattdtnouth.
That 13 all wrong. We would have
that committee work instead of ache,
over imaginary difficulties. There are
enouyh real obstacles to overcome
without building imaginary ones. This
paper and all of its uttach from the
"doeil" to the news boys aro heartily
in favor of "The Home."
When the interests of I'lattsmouth
were in peril, iu times past, we have
generally been, at the fiout; even when
others were intimidated on account of
the danger it offered to their political
hopes and plans.
If there are any perils in this matter
shove them alonj to the old IIkv.ald,
we will aBumo them. If thf ,e are am
k loi its to be reaped, take them some

JiiillCl
"TllL a in Ii.j.-j'o okin" in this
campaign, is the st c.ilie l ''icdepend
ent niovemeni" headed by Harper's
Weekly, the New Yoik Times and
their followers.
This clique presume upon the ignor
ance of the masses in their appeal to
them to vote tlie democratic party into
power,
Two great political antagonists have
f. r near a half century, contended for
the mastery iu American affaire, their
pathway, from the date of the admis-
sin of Missouri into the union, until
the present time, is separated by a
chasm as deep as the bottomless pit,
aud as wide as that which separates
virtue fiom vice1 One of thee politi
cal tombalants has been champion of
the full, tree, fair, and equal lights of
the individual, no matter what his col
or or raste before the law. The other
antagonist lias been the determined foe
of all this.
Twenty-five years ago, slavery was
the form of the issue. Today that
same contention is clothed in the race
conflict, which is being waged in every
state iu the union where fclaver? ex
isted. To deny this is to argue that
black is white, that day is night.
The two political antagonists which
separated upon this issue in the early
days of the republic, are today Jound
arrayed, as bitter opponents, upon the
race issue, and upon almost every other
issue which trcse from the slavery
contention. Free trade to v. great ex
tent, was the early foundling of 'the
cotton Dioducimr slave iuttn-s. Slav
ery is dead, but the party which ral
lied to the support t-f that institution
in its palmy days, toiay cherishes the
principal legacies it bcqueatheJ to its
admirers, and chiefest a:aonr t'ue-e is
race prejudice and the free Mads doc
trines of John C. Calhoiir.
Mr. Curtis, Mr. Ueccher aivl S'i h in
dependents well know that ihcse is
sues still divide the great political or
ganizations of today, and tb;- support
o Gtover Clertlrtud ni'-an.-; th.. estab
lishment of the dertiocra'ie party in
power for an indefinite pcri'i of time.
Yet thev would hav the "i: t:.lli g;-nt

violation of the riyh's of repub
lican voters in the many states of the
South. They know thi3 7ms ; been the
ca-e, and that in a continuance cf these
outrages alone, rests the hoi-e of the
party they would restore to power.

A St:irtliii? Discovery.
Physiciaus are often startled by le
mirkable discoveries. The fact that
Dr. King's New Discovery for Con
sumption and ail Throat aad Lunz
diseases is daily curing patients that
thev have given up to die, is startling
them to realize their sene of duty, and
examine into the merits of this wonder
ful discovery ; resulting in hundreds of
our best Physicians using it in their
practice. Trial Bottles free at J. M

DISTINGUISHED SERVICES."
Sir. Chairman VilaH, to whom was
deputed the duty of formally teuderiug
the nominations to Cleveland aud Hen
dricks, has fulfilled it. In that portion
of the duty pertaining to the rear end
of the ticket, Mr. Chairman Vilas, uu
blu&hingly, aud we presume without
sarcasm, said :
"Sir, though Indiana's favored citi
zens may enjoy with just prido a pe
culiar honor iu the distinguished serv
ices you haye rendered your, party;
your state, aud the nation, and may
feel a peculiar attachment for tha en
dearing qualities of your heart and
mind, be assured the democracy of the
nation participates in that sense of
honor aid affectionate regard and iu
hardly less degree."
It will be observed that Mr. Chair
man Vilas did not stop to specify the
character of" the distinguished services
Hendricks had performed for his party
the !ate, and the nation, and in which
the democracy of the state and nation
tfckes such honor. It may be well to
recall aome of them.
1. He was an apologist for and sup
porter of the infamous and brutal sys
tem of human slavery long after Pre3
dent Lincoln issued his Emancipation
l'roclamation, and while Col. Vilas
was risking his life on the battlcGeld
to abolish it.
2, He vottid to repeal the Missouri
Compromise, and was rewapiVd by llu
i hanan for doing it. He advocated the
birring out of all free negroes fiom In
diana. He always voted agaiipu giving
the colored race any rights. He op
posed the constitutional amendments,
the repeal of the Fugitive Slave law,
and grossly assailed Lincoln for issu
ing the Emancipation Proclamation.
4. He steaJily and systematically
opposed the government in its every
effort to put down the southern rebel
lion. He publicly expressed his sym
pathy with the South whenever it was
safe for him to do it. He advised the
Northwest to secede from the Union
and set up a government of its own.
He advised men not to volunteer, and
suggested in a public speech that there
were ways of taking care of United I
. ,. I
states omeersj vvnu came lino xuuiuua
to recruit or catch deserter?. He de
nounced Abraham Lincoln as a tyrant
and an imbecile.
