Beneath the burden of our joy 'remble, Oh I wives, from East to West, Fashion with words your tongues of fire To tell the Nation's high behest. Outstrip the winds and leave behind The murmur of the rustless waves, No tarry with your glorious news Amid the ocean's coral waves. Ring out, ring out your sweetest chimes, Ye bells that call to prayer and prasY, Let every heart with gladnes thrill, And songs of joyful triumph raise. shake off the dust, oh rising race; Crowned an a brother and a man, Juntive to-day asserts her claim, And from thy brow fades out the ban. With freedom's chrism upon thy head. Her precious enemgn hi thy hand, Go place thy once despised name Amid the noblest of the laud. Oh, ransomed race, givo (ind the praise, Who led thee through a crimson sea, And 'mid the storm of tire and blood Turned out the war lond's light to thee. Jaclsow, Miss., 1871. CISICE SELECTISNI. Al KNln IMIPHUUAM HNlt. The .gac iBa _ .,the Wuashj$ton. Republeau, ihat the National Re publican party ia strnger to-day in every State of the Union than it was in 1868, when it chose Gen. Grant to be its standard-bearer and the reasons for this increased strength and energy and vitality are to be found in the vigor and ability and patriotism with which his administration has been con ductoed. It is solely andl entirlefr owing to the broad and cotnpre hlnusive policy to which he has adhered that this result is due. The Republican party has, under his leadership, marched to triumph grcater than it was dreamed of win ning. He has not given us a hot antl angry personal government, but a government based on what he believed to be the wishes of the people and the pressing clmnands and necessities of the country. When he took the oath of office, two years ago, the public service was corrupted and debauched. Seventy or eighty millions of dollars were annually stolen by dishonest officials. To-lay it is purer thani it has been at any period of our history. A mountain of debt threatened to crush the nation; the faithful finan cial agents of the President have mastered that debt, and tmade its reduction so rapid, that even now we begin to count the years which shall witness the payment of the last dollar. The never-ending In dian wars threatened us and an Indian policy was found, the en forcement of which has saved mil lions of money during the last two years, The Alabama question was a crimson 'cloud on the foreign hor" ifon, full of all manner of possibili ties, but it has been turned into the sunshine of a lasting and an honor able peace. And for the reason that all this and much more has been done, the I Republican party is stronger to-day, than it was when it held its last national convehtion, and will be still stronger in 1872, when it will again meet in council. There are factions i and dissatisfied cliques within its, party lines, who make a terrible uproar, and predict disaster and 1 defeat; but they are like the howlers in the wood, who make a tremendous noise, and, when the bush is beaten, instead of a great multitude, prove to be only an in:irnificiant half dozen. LAWS IELATIUS TO MEW3PAMU. j We have been asked to give the law, as it stands, relating to news papers and subscribers: f 1. Subscribers who do not give express notice to the contrary are considered wishing to continue their . subscription. 1: 2 If subscribers order the dis continuance of their periodicals, the publishers may continue to send them until all arrearages are paid. 3. If subscribers neglect or refuse to take their periodicals fronhbe office to which they are directed, I they are held resposuible till they Ii have settled theio bill, and ordered b them discontinued. L 4. If subseribers move to other places without informing the pub lishers, and the papers are sent to the former direction, they are held responsible. 5. The courts have decided that refusing to take periodicals from C the office, or removing and leassng a them unealled for, is primesfacia tl evidence of intentional fraud. 6. Any person who receives a new aeer and makes use of it, w he has ordered it or not, is ti held in law to be e saubcriber. FUN A ll FACT.

"Fling dem ere peanut shells anoder way up dere, won't yer" was the darkeys advice, ashe i ratched his wool. A female lecture said: "Get mar ried, young men, and be quick about it. Don't wait for the millennium, for the girls to become angels. You'd look well beside an angel, wonldn't you, you blockheads?" --Au old Scotch lady was told that her miniihter used notes. She disbelieved it. Said one, "Go into the gallery and see." She did so, and saw the written sermon.

The old lady cried out from her lofty position, "Ye cauna, ye canna, for your paper's give oot l" --A gentleman who has lived for many years in sight of the ocean, says it is an undeniable fact that the vicinity of the C makes a hilly t location chilly. -I do not say that religion I should end when mystery begins; I but I do not say that dogmatism i should end when mystery begins. I -A citizen of Connecticut, being unexpectedly called upon to address a Sunday-school, rose to his feet in some confusion, and after several desperate but vain efforts to say something appropriate, hoarsely murmured, "Dear children, never fool with powder." ---I never could bear children, f "said a crusty old maid to Mrs. f Partington. "Perhape if you could, i you would like them better," mildly replied the old lady.
