Tying her bonnet under her chin, She- tied hor raven ringlets in, Bat not alone iu tho silken mere. Did she catch her lovely floating hair, For, tying her bonnet undor her chin, Sho tied a young man's heart within. They woro strolling together up the hill, Where tho wind comes blowing merry and chill, And it blew thoourls a frolicsome rnoo, All over tho happy peach-colored faco, Till, scolding and laughing, sho tied tbem in, Under her beautiful dimpled ohiu. And it blew a color bright as tho bloom Of tho pinkest fuxebia's tossing plume, All over the ehoeks of tbe prettiest girl That ovor imprisoned a romping curl. Or, tying her bonnet undor hor chin, Sbo tied a young man's hut within. Steeper and steeper grew tno hill Madder, tnorrier, chillier still Tho western wind blew down ahd played The wildest tricks with the little maid, As, tying her bonnet under her chin, She tied ayoung man's heart nithiu. Oh, western winds, d' you think it was fair. To ptuy such tricks with her floating hair? To gladfulty, gleefully do your bet To blow her ngainst tho ouug man's breast, Where bo so gladly folded her in, And kiscd her mouth and dimpled chin. Oh, F.ilery Vane; you little thought An h"Ur ago when you Leught This eouutry lass to walk with you, Alter Ike un had dried tko dew, What perilous danger you'd been in. As she tied her bonnet under her chin. THE MILLER S DAUGHTER. BV AI.KUKIl TEN N YSOJf. It is the miller's daughter, And ho is grown so dear, so dear, That I w-.uld be the jew 1 'Jhtt treln'de at her ear Fr, hid in ringlets day and night, I'd touch her neck warm and white. An I I would be the girdle A bowl hor dainty, dainty wnint. And her h art would beat agaiut me lu -.,rw an I ip rest : Aud I should know if it beat right, I'd deep it round so tight. And I would ho the n eklacc. And all day long to fail and rtM l"j n her lklmy feeeeBBi Witti li.-r laughter or her sigh. And I wovld be light. ' iight. I scarce should bo BfllBtpen at night. siGxa or a uoou cow. At the recent Farmers' Boating at Manchester, lr. Lortti"; of Salem, Mass., dtfiveted an aldrc.s on Neat Cattle, from which the following directions for select, ing a good cow, are taken : " Head of medium sir-', with a strong, well-marked, bony structure, broad be tween and high above the eye, and wide between the roots of the horns, with a capacious but not elumy muzzle, full uostril. an eye full and mild, uot too large and prominent, jowl thtn and wtde. bonis small, well curved, slightly turned upwards, and with a calm and at the same time strong and rc.-oiutc c."prc- ion; neck long, well-mu-elcd, dend r, taper ing towards the head, with little loose skin hanging below, and not dropping too much forward of the shoulders ; shoul ders thiu and sharp nt the top, and lying close to the chine, poiucwhat promiuent, strong-mu.-clcd and loose-jointed at tbc base, long irem the elbow to tbc piut in front of tbc base ; fore-quarters light, comparatively, with a Htraigbt, slender foreleg, especially below tbe knee; broad knee, and broad, flat, cipacious loot, car cass deep, round and full about the breast, and increasing largely towards the hind quarters; back straight and loosely joint ed; pelvis wide over tbe hips, long, aud supplied with strong muscles; hiud quarters broad, strong on tbe outside aud well cut out on tho inside, with strong hock and a hng, tapering hind-foot; tail long and slender, strong at the roots and set on a line with the back, not too high nor too low; udder evenly divided into tour qnartcrs; extending well for ward, filling the cavity between the thighs behind, not hung low, and with a large, long and crooked milk-vein; teats set far apart aud of medium size and length hide loose and elastic, but not too thin ; hair oft and silky, and of lively appear ance anu abundant 111 quantity ; rios broad and fiat-shaped, with their edges and especially the two last, widely sepa rated. 1 icturc to yourselves a cow pos sessing all these points and you have an animal which any dairy farmer might de hor for butter or cheese, or the supply of milk to the market. The Doctor said a cow of this descrip tion will be good, be she Short Horn, Devon, Aldcrney or Ayrshire. He had seen them of all breeds. In regard to K17.C he did not favor giants, but good fair proportions one that would dress six hundred pounds is largo enough. A clever gentleman, and something of a wag withal, i'cll a victim to the wiles of John Jiarleycorn recently, and became sea-sick," if the Hibcrnianism may be allowed, so that he had to anchor in a fence corner and hcavc. Holding on to a rail, he poured forth a promiscuous cascade "tremenjus to behold." A sym pathising friend, while passing, feelingly inquired : "Hallo, what s the matter f Arc you sick ?" The victim turned up on him a look in which was concentrated a perfect avalanche of reproachful con tempt, and blurted out between his copi ous upheavals, "Confound you, d' s-e-r-p-o-s-e I'm p-u-pu-king for fun ?" " That's very singular," said a young ladv to a a gentleman who had kissed her "Oh, well, my doar miss, I can make it plural." If a man has nothing to say, he is sure to take much time a,nd use many words in saying it. - "Oh, for a thousand tongues !" sang a little urchin who bad crawled inside hugo sugar hogshead. "Little boys should be seen and not heard," replied a youngster when no was asiced to recite his lesson. GRANT'S INAUGURAL ADDRESS. Citizens 0 the United States : Your suffrngcH having oluvatod me to ho office of I'rcHidcnt of tho United HtatcH, I have in conformity with the Con ntitutiou of our country now taken the oath of offieo protientcd therein. I have tuken thiH oath without mental rofierva tioo, and with tho determination to do, to tho best of my ability, all that it re quire of me. Tho responsibilities of tbe position I feel, but accept them with out tear. 1 ho office has come to mo un sought. I commence its duties untram melled. 1 bring to it a conscientious de sire and determination to fill it to the best of my ability and to tho satisfaction of tho pcoplo. lu all leading questions agitating the public mind I will express my views to Congress and urgo them, ac cording to my judgment tuid when I think it advisable. 1 will always exercise tho Constitutional privilega of interposing a veto to defeat measures which 1 oppose ; but all laws will be faithfully executed, whether they meet my upproval or not. I shall on all subjects have a policy to recommend, none to be enforced against the will of the people. Tho laws are to govern all alike those opposed to them as well as those who favor them. I know no method to secure the repeal of bad or obnoxious laws so cm dive as their strin gent txeeution. The country having just emerged from a great rebellion, many qucstious will come before it for settle BOBt, in the uext four years, with which the procedlOg administrations have never had to deal. lu meeting tl; in it is desir able that thej should be approached calmly, without pre judice, Male or na-tt'-nal pride, remembering that the great good to the greatest number is the object to be attuincd. This requires the ncurity of pcraon, procrty ami of relig ious and political opinions in every part of our common eouutry, without regard to locality or prejudice, haws to secure these will receive 111 best efforts for cn forceuicnt. A general debt has been contracted in securing for us and our posterity the Union, the payment of which, principal and interest, as well as a return to a specie basis, as soon as that can be accouipli-be 1 without material detriment to the debtor class or the country-at large, mut bo provided for. To protect the national honor, every dollar of tbe (iovernujc-nt indebtedness should be paid in gol l, unless otherwise under stood or stipulated in the contracts. I?t it be understood that no repudiator of a farthing of our public debt will be trusted in a public place, and it will go far towards strengthening a credit which ought to be the best in the world, and will ultimately enable us to replace the debt with bonds bearing less interest than wc now pay. To this should be added a faithful collec tion of the revenue, a strict accountabili ty to treasury for every dollar collected aud the greatest practicable retrenchment in the expenditure iu every department of the Clovcrnmcnt. When wc compare the paving capacity of the country now, with the St.itcs still in poverty from the . Sectl of the war, but soon to emerge I trust into greater prosperity than ever be fore, with its paying capacity twenty-five years ago, an l to calculate what it proba bly will be twenty five years hence, who can doubt tbe feasibility of paying every dollar then with more c;uk than we now pay for useless luxuries ? Why. it looks as though providence has bestowed upon us a strong box of the precious metal, locked up in the sterile mountains of the far west, which wc are now forging the key to unlock, to meet the very contin gency that is now upon us. Ultimately it may be necessary that thcticncral tiov ernmcnt should give its aid to secure this success, but that should only be when a dollar of obligation to pay secures pre cisely the same obligation to us now, and uot before. While the question of specie payment is in abeyance the prudent busi ness man is careful about contracting debts payable in the distant future. The nation should follow the same rule. Prostrate commerce is to bo rebuilt, and all industries encouraged. 1 he young men of the country, those who from their ages must be its rulers twenty-five years hence, have a particular interest in maintaining the natioual honor. A mo nicnts reflection as to what will be our commanding influence among the nations of the earth in their day if they are on ly true to themselves, should inspire them with national pride. All divisions geographical, political and religious, con cur in this common sentiment. How the public debt is to be paid or specie pay ment resumed is not so important as that a plan should be adopted and acquiesced in. A united determination to do it is worth more than divided counsels upon tho method of doing it. Legislation up on this subject may not bo necessary now, or even advisable : but it will bo when the civil law is more fully restored in all parts of tho country and trado resumes its wontcu cnannci. it win do my en dcavor to executo all laws in good faith, collect all revenues assessed and to have them properly accounted for and econom ically disbursed. It will bo for mo, to the best of mv ability, to appoint to of fice those oulv who will carry out this design. In regard to foreign policy would deal with nations as equitably as the law requires individuals to deal with each other, and I would protect evory law-abiding oitizon, whether of native or foreign birth, wherover his rights are jeopardized or the flag of our country iloats. I would respect tho rights of al nations, demanding equal respect for our own. If others depart from this rule in thoir dealings with uswc may be compelled to iollow thoir precedent. Tho proper treatment of. the original occupants o this land (tho Indians) is deserving o great caro and study. I will favor any course towards them which tends to their civilization, Christianity, and ultimate citi zenship. Tho question of suffrage is one which is likely to agitate tho public so long as a portion or the citizens of tho nation are excluded from its privilege, In any state it seems to mo very desira ble that this question should be settled. I entertain the hope and express tho do sire that it may bo by the ratification of tho 15th Article of tho amendment to tho Constitution. In conclusion, I ask patience and forbearance of one towards another throughout tho land, and a de termined effort on tho part of every citi zen to do his share in cementing a happy union, and 1 ask the prayers of tho na tion to Almighty (iod in behalf of this consummation. VHK l'HKBI !KNT COLFAX H IN A COL'llAI. In the Hcoato Colfax said : In enter ing this Chamber, for the performance of tho duties for which I. have been called by the people of the United .States, I realize fully the delicacy and responsi bility of tho position of presiding over a body whose members in so large a degree arc seniors. Not being chosen by the body itself I shall certainly need assist ance, support and generous forbearance and confidence, but pledging all faithful and unflinching impartiality in tho ad ministration of your rules. Earnestly de siring cooperation with you in the delib erations of tho Senate, worthy not only their history and renown, but also of the States whose commissions you hold, I am ready to take the oath freely. The oath was then administered by Chief Justice Chase. Til l. TKM PERA . K I A HT . Wc have no question that tbe interests of temperance will be damaged by these hon.'st but fanatical gentlemen. They go at the demon of iutempcrauce as the bull went nt the locomotive, aud we doubt not that the fate which overlook the bull will befall the gentlemen. What con ciliation, fraternity aud love fail to do for temperance will never be accomplished. If tlie million of temperance men, women, girls and boys in Illinois could be inter ested to iuflucncc their neighbors for the Hi ht by example and love; if the chur ches could be influenced to go into hovels and gutters for souls with half the per tinacity with which they besiege the man sions of the rich; if Christian people could be influenced to help save their own and their neighbor's children from temp tations of which they think so little the terrible work of iutemperance would soon be brought virtually to an end. Hut the temperance reform can never be moved forward by force. od Almighty, for man's sake, cursed the earth with thorns and briars, wars and famines, plagues and reptiles, radicalism and whisky. I'ntil he burns the whole the thing up, wc have got to live in the society of these evils. They cannot be exterminated. Vsing the wisdom with which Providence has en dowed mankind, these evils may be luiti gated in a great degree A famine cau- not be prohibited, yet a wise man may t nntigatc its terrors in Ins own homo, l'ca- tilcucc Cannot be prohibited, yet a pru - dent aud wise family can use such sanit- ary measures as almo.t secure their home against its invasion. I horns' and briars will grow, but a wise farmer can manage to control them. Whisky, wiuc and beer will be manufactured and used for evil until (tabriel blows his horn, but wise men cau mitigate their influence by per- uasion, fraternity and love. Wc know this to be true by valuable experience. L'ulton county stauds foremost among the iractical temperance communities of tbc country. All that ha been done here las been the work of conciliation and temperate action. citber of our politi cal parties would dare to put forth as a candidate an intemperate man. The moral sentiment of our people forbids it. But et the fanatics from Hloomington come proposing to force measures upon our people, and it would not be long until the tide of intemperance would sweep like a delugo over our twenty-six townships this day uncurscd by a single lincensed liquor den. Wc arc for temperance. Wc are for shut ting up t very distillery and dram shop iu the land. Wc are for the utter annihila tion of the system of importing rotten and poisoned liquors from huropc. Hut wc onld accomplish all this grand work by educating the men and boys of the bud 3p to the standard of total abstinence. in short, should cut off the demand, when the traffic would fallTo the groud.

Indeed, the remarkable failures 0f this case have so often been repeated, that for propriety sake, if for no other reagon, it became at last necessary to ex- tend to him an unlimited pardon. What more plainly than this illustrates the ex tremes of party management and engi neering on one hand and factious vindict iveness and intolerance on the other? Instead of seeking to make treason odious, it would in truth seem to have been the purpose rather to make the defense of the Constitution and the Union a crime, and to punish fidelity to an oath of office, if contrary to party dictation, by any means at their command. One of the reserved rights of the States is that each may de clare the qualifications of its electors. It is assumed that Congress can control this right, which can never be taken from the States without impairing the princi- a plcs 0f the Government. When depriv- cd of this prerogative the States have no j nower worth retaining but will be sub- ject to the arbitrary will of Congress, The government will then be centralized.
