prone to stay away from conventions
and then complain because the choice

1 >fcause only a few attended the con

love for the grand old Democratic prin¬

nothing more nor less than that the

General John B. Gordon, chairman
at the central committee, .having care
of the proposed Confederate home in
Richmond, Va„ rejiorts a very general

sent a very kind letter with a chock for
five bundled dollars.
The Republican party is evidently
growing weaker and weaker. It seems

“O, softly wave the silver hair
From off that aged brow !
That crown of glory worn so long
A fitting crown is now.
Kadi silver hair, each wrinkle there,
Records some good deed done ;
None flower she east along the wa,
Some.spark from love’s bright sun.
O, gently fold the weary bands
That toiled so long and well ;
The spirit rose to angel hands,
When off earth’* mantle fell.”
