Standing iu front of the great Rome, you will see a tall obelisk, 3il feet high, cenp.VHis its jiosition htgli over all.

The work was undci'takeii, tlie day rrtim people gatVrcd to see tlie great statue raised its plaoo. 'J'lie muchinerj tdt arranged, and the work commoici'd, little by little the tall giant left its place, and was being earned slowly upward.

13-lltf. In Xenia, Ohio, on Saturday e-ning last, animiueiHM irkkss nutting ot lpnblicntis was n.blteivtHl li Judge AVinaus, cauditUte for Con gress that district, and by Presi dent Fairtield of this State. From the report of Prasidcnt ixldretM we take the c-toskij; jtortiou: There are two great parties en gag ed iu the prexint political contest, the Republicans and the Democrats. I nee I not tell you who the Republicans are; you know they are tho men who stood by.tiie Government all through the ar; tlrey are tl uieu who n-joiecd at every Federal victory, and thanked God, and took courage when the Confederate armies were repulsed. I need not tell you who onr opponents are.

They are made up of several In the first place they are the men who led in the reUdlioil, and the men who fought during the four or live years of civil are found ou that side. The men who have so far failed to give ns the indication of penitence tor all their political Bins, are all on that side. I would certainly bo very reluctant if they were lound standing anywhere else. It they wanted to join the KnmMicnn pnity, I think it should be for treating them like a pious Deacon did a man iu Massachusetts There iis a certain man there who was iu the habit of drinking excessivelyI don't know that there is mvult thing as drinking litpior ithout drinking it excessive! iv' When lie was a little intoxicated ho was very pious. Ou one occasion having taken a little more Mian common, be came to the Deacon and proposed to oiiivuo cuurcu, Ane ueacou was reauy vitiea, aim says to mm, en, well, 1 most say to you that lust now our euurcn is tun.

hen there is a vacaucy I wilt let you know." Laughter. i need nut tell jou that tuere was another class of men I need not csill th by any naien, its no use; but we had class of men hero who, while our men were lighting rebels clown Bomb, kept hring lit Ukj rear. May ye vou did not have any down here. I think this would have been an unhealthy atmosphere for them to liave breathed. 1 remcmDer our utwaf; ltt-iublicnii cuuntyA I bail trom tlie Imnner.eiU'publican county of the State of Michigan that has electcdits Republican' Supervisor in every ono of its 18 townships for years, and expect to do it to the end of the chapter.

Laughter nnd ap plause. Hut even tliere, now and then, wo -touiHl a man win), when tlie new of some rrl nil tleteat was received, Vonld be seen with bis face an iuchor two- broader than it was before, and who would Ire oot earlier in the morning with Hie daily paper, and would bait those he met with, '-'didn't I tell yon so; didn't I tell yoti so. But whonever, on. the other baud, there was a Federal victory these men never found a morning pa per until a week after. Laughter.

They never knew when a victory came to the arms of nation until, by and by, they a waked, to the discovery of the lact that some days ago there had been a report of such a victory, but they would then denounce it as a lilaclc KepnWkran lie. llienewed laughter.J All the unrepentaut men of that kiud are on the other side. I know it is not very grateful to our Democratic friends to talk thus ot their party, for some of tliem are doubtless loyal, some were war who paid their money, and gave their sons and their prayers to the Union army, and went with tho party in favor of nprroiding the Union. Yet some of these; are to day walking with the' 'Derocratic party some of them have had their ryes an-nointed a littley titl they only' see mm as, trees walking. They need another annointing.

I don't know whose hands shall apply the salve and briug them to their 'eyesight-There is one thing sore, many of them don't like very well to face the music They have always, voted the Democratic ticket up to this time, but they don't think they will vote tor Seymour and Blair the plat form adopted at New York. Some of them do not enjoy much peace or conscience iu view of Thcyare som What like the Hiberiaa who was ruling si horse in fly time. The flies were ver? bad. and tte horse, in kick ing to get them off, caught his foot in 0 1 aw the stirup. jras uia not rancy me ideaef riding in such company, and saidt jabers, Tom, yon are iroinir to get on, I'll be setting off." "fLaughter.l Tbeso Democrats don'i like the ide'a of ridklg'with Forrest nnd Hamptod and Beauregard, Dick and man of tbat don't like to be lonnd in that sort of company, and I hope they will get their eyes clearly opened before the Sdos of 2J oTember, so tlmtthey will not have another politi-itisin to account for.

Bui are we going to come out right in this greac strnggiei a iniut yo of ftre.
