Shadows. .
Shados ltting: past the.starlight,
Shadows darkling is.the air.
Shadows is the swaying tree tops,
Shadows gliding.everywhere..
Nights like this are born of shadows,
Everything is weird and dic:
Shadowy gitoss haupt. every ,valley
With a presence dread and grim.
There are times when everyheart-throb t
Seems to summon shadows near,
Waking ghosts in every chamber
Of the beart that's dark wilh fear.
Ghosts that tread with noiseless footsteps,
Gate around with mournful eyes,
Clutch our hands with bony Augers,
Fill our souls with tears and sighs.
Every heart must have its night fall
Phadows come with every night,
Blasted hopes-old dreams of glory
Are the ghosts that step so light ;
Thronging the heart's dim chambers,
Where they revel with delight,
Till we shudier at their resence,
Pale and trembling with affright.
After night fall comes the morning,
And the golden beams of day, .
Waking joy in every valley,
Driv, the shadowy ghosts away.
Every heart shall have its morning,
!lope will shine with cheering ray,
Then the ghosts that come with heart
throbs,
Powerless, will flee away.
Nothing Lost.
l othing is lost. The drop of dew
That trembles on the leaf or flower
Is but exhaled to fall anew
In summer's thunder shower;
Perchance to shine within-the bow,
'hat fronts the sun at fall of day ;
Perchance to sparkle in the ow
Of fountains far away.
So with your deeds, for good or ill,
They have their power soarce understood;
Then let. us use our better will
To make them rife with good ;
Like oero:eJ on a lake they go,
ling within ring never stay,
Oh I that our deeds were fashioned so
t That they might bless alway.
Paper-money Demooraoy,
The theory that paper money is good
enough for tho bloated bondholders was
first propouinded in a moment of spite
by that great republican leader of the
House, lion. Thad. Stevens, of Penn
sylvania. It was also taken up and
advocated, earnestly for a while, by
that distinguished republican Senator,
1Hon. John Sherman, of Ohio. In the
belief that it was likely to become popu.
lar, the democrats of the West, and es.
pecially in the two States we have
clamed, seized upon the now- doctrine
and incorporated in their political creed.
We have warned them against such use
of this infamous proposition. We show.
ed that it involves all that is demosealiz
.ing and dishonest in the management
.of the national finances. It repeats,
.confirms and extends the greatest errors
.ma<hy by the Republican party in pro
viding ways and means for the groat
struggle.
The better class of the Republicans
never followed the lead of the represen.
dative -men who originated and advocat
iel this plan of national repudiation.
The same is true of the Democrats as a
party, their beet men insisting that issu
eng one promise for another can never
-be regarded as an honest payment of a
delbt. But some of the leaders in Ohio
and ?eansylvanta thought to profit by
:the dodge, and now they may see what
has come of it. Instead of the over
whelning triumph they expected, they
have gathered no new adherents, and
hiave achieved no subetimntial victory,
alhouugh the general apathy of their
opponents gave them all the- advat~tage
had they underatood how to avail them=
selves of it. In this State the Democ
racy, while, as we believe, really l.old
ing with their beet men that only actual
money could satisfy an honest debt,
were led to trimn'ing and evasion in
their late platforn, lest they might injure
the party in other States where the pa
por money scheme was aupposed to be
popular. They, too, may learn a lesson
fromt the election returns now before
them. Trhere ia no real, permaenent gain
to any person or party In the use or ad.
vocacy of falsehood.
It is undoubtedly true, also, that the
Democrats in the two great States
where the controversy was sharp die
plhayedl a want of practical common
sense in cliniging to old watchwords hay
ing no present s'Sniflcance, and in at
templttg to renew as living issues some
of those questions .a hich have been dofi
nitely- settled by the recent civil conflict.
It is worse than useless, it is positive
madtness, for any political party or fac
tion to ignore thme progress of events,
even though the facto may upset their
bhot theories. The P'endletonian style of
Democracy has had its day, and every
body who cling to it will soon be buried
in the grave ofthe dead past, beyond
all hope' of renewed vitality in our gene

owing notice of a recent "tashionablo" l
egro wedding in Washington, merely 1
oting the interesting circumstance that
he groomsmen and bridesmaids, (and
he whole audience for that matter,)
vere made up of "whites and blacks,
n equal proportioni. The Chronicle o
aye:
One of the most select audiences ever n
reseeble t in this city among the colored r
)eople met at the Fifteenth street Pros 3
>yterian Church on Tuesday evening,
he 12th inst., to witness the nuptials of t
l'homas S. Boston, Esq.. assistant cash- t
er of the National Savings Baink, and t,
dise Anne M. Wilson, only daugh- r
or of Wm. Wilson, Esq., cashier of t
hat institution in this city. The church t
ras crowded to its utmost capacity, r
with both white and colored persons.
l'he parents of the bride er.t.red the r
:hntrch precisely at half-past 8 o'clock, t
preceded by the Rev. 0. H. Thompson, t
>d Newark, New Jeroev, the ofliciating i
lergyman. The bride was rkihly nwttr- 4
.d in white satin trimmed with blonde t
tmd lace. The bridesmaids, Miss Litc" <
Barber, sister of R. H. Booker, anu 1
Wiss Laura Fisher, daughter of Mr 1. 1
Pisher, were dressed in white tarletan,
rimmed. The groom was neatly attir- t
Ad in a- fashionable suit of black. The I
troomsmen were Dr. C. B. Purvis, 1
Professor of Howard University, and t
Hr. Bohert Burton, of Washington.- <
[mmediately after the conclusion of the I
eremony at the church, the bridal par I
y proceeded to the house of the bride's
ather on L street, the doors of which 1
were thrown open, and was soon filled I
with a gay throne of invited guests.-<
imong the notables present were Major
Seneral O. O. Howard, ex-President 1
Roberts, of Liberia, and lady; John M. i
Langston. Esq., Law Professor of the
Howard University ; Professor Bascom <

Dr. A. S. Augusta and lady, of the

Ahe morning train for the North.
The old homely adage of'tho "burnt
child dreading the fire," is appreciated
here in Charleston to the fullest extent. 1
Uharleston has subscribed to the "Mem. 1
phis" and "Nashville," the "Blue
Ridge," "Northeastern," "Charlotte,"
"Cheraw" and other roads, and hostile
interests now push her ,aside and use
most of these roads against her mer
ahants, by means of discriminating
freight tariffs. The latest news from
the Blue Ridge subscription of $1,000,
000, and as much more accruing inter.
eat, is that it is to bo put in the shape of
second mortgage bonds, with enough of
first mortgage paper ahead of the sec
ond to swamp the whole amount. The
"Charlotte Road" charges more on cot
ton for Charleston than to Ports
mouth.
Under all these discouraging circum.
stances, Charleston has to be patient,
and while wishing eell to all the nuner
ous railroad enterprises projected in
South Carolina, she must husband her
remaining rsources, and use the w.s -
ly anld eicientlyl in the future. 'Althoughi
not as strong as before the war, "the1
City by the Sea" will yet make herself
felt in'the South as a port and .market,
second to no other.-C6ourier.
It is admitted that the Ohio election
confirms the belief, heretofore expressed
by Senator Sherman, that the West will
present a strong front in opposition to
the financial policy of the Adininistra
tion. Many of the Republican voters
thoug~h withholding their srtffrage from
Pendleton, are~ pledged to his policy of
paying the United States Bonds in
greenbacks. There is to'be a great
struggle on this question, and it will
cowr.mence during the present Congress.
New party .lines are to be drawn in
reference to the debt, anid the currency
and taxation. As to the Fifteer.tli
4mietdmenst it is still left in doubt. The
declaion of Ohio will be -deferred for
another eleotion. But if this question
be disposed of prior to 1872, the chief
politloal issue will be uspoi. the financial
queasions.--Cor; Charleagon Courier.

r returns indicate tidisastrous result
ror te Deminoroy The majority
against Mr. Pendleton is thought to
be 10,000. We do not believe it will
saceed 5,000. This result will be
fatal to the presidential aspirations of
Mir. Jendleton in the next National
Donvention of the Democracy. In
proportion as it will militate against
dir. Pendleton, it will strengthen
with his own patty, Gdvernor Hoff
man, of New York, who is no less an
idol with the Democracy of the Eist
srn States, ;ian is Mr. Pendleton
with the Western Democracy. Mr.
Hlofm',uan is of the same style of man
as his Western rival-a gentleman of
flue culture and high impulses.
The intelligent public will see in
these eleotioun a 6ofirniition of the
propriety of the position which this
purnal has maintained for months
past. The position is that the South
is guilty of .madness in waiting'For or
expecting her deliverence by the Na
tional Democray. We do not desire
Republican successes, but we cannot
make the lemooracy sucoessful. For
four years we have clung to the hope
f - deliverance through Democratic
victories, and to-day we are further
removed from the goal of our hopes,
than we were six months after the ter
minatlon of the war. Is it stateN
manship; is it wisdom, or is it sheer
blind, stupid Bourbonism, that looks
only to the past, closes its eyes to the
otents that are sweeping on with ir
reiistible power, and continues its
aborative struggle against the inevita

A physician writes to Demoreet's
AMonthly Magazine an interesting com
thluniention on the nature and treat
ment of whooping cough, and adds :
"The remedy for the cure of this
terrible disease is simple. It is with
in roach and procurable by all. Per
haps its very simpli6fty will cause it
to be neglected. It is simply to ad
minister the decoction or infusion of
the common castenea vesca, chesnut
leaves ; or. if better understood,ches
miY$ (ars tea. The infusion is pro
pared in tio ordinary manner that tea
is daily prepared for domestic purpos
es, to wit : Pour one quart boiling
water on one ounce of the chesnut
leaves, and keep covered. When
co. ., an ordinary teacupful may be
given three or four times daiy ; the
last at the time of the patient retiring
to rest for the night. SugaamiA'd mfilk
may be added, if ncbssarf, <d 4Q
ceive the pat feft."
The Washington correspondent of
the Baltimoro Guzete says : "It is now
quite certain that Congress will refuse
to confirm the nomination of General
Sickles as Minister to Spain. The
appointment was purely one of Presi
dential favor. General Sickles has no
friends among the leading men of his
party. That he is morally and so
cially unfitted for the position is gene
rally conceded ; that he is no diplo
matist,'has by himself been demon
strated. That he was sent to Madrid
at all was a mistake, due to the obsti
nancy and self-will of the Executive.
It will be for Congress to rectify the
error as p.-omptly as possible."
