O Silence, Silence now when night Is near, And I am left alone, Thou art so strange, so sad, reposing here, And all so changed hath grown, Where once was all exuberant with life, Through day and night, in toil or deadly strife, If I must weep, O tell me is there not Some plaintive story breathed Into my ear. By spirit whispers from thy voiceless sphere, Haunting this sacred spot? Unto mi soul more sweetly eloquent Than wrrrds of love on sculptured monument, Outspeaks yon crumbling parapet, where lies The broken gun, the idly-rusting ball Mementoes of an ill-starred enterprise I Rude altar reared for costly sacrifice! Vast work of hero-hands left U thy fall, Where are they now that peerless brotherhood, Who marshalled there, . That dreadful year. In pain and peril still undaunted stood, When dea'.h rode fiercest on the battle-storm. And earth was strewn with many a glorious form! And where are they, who, when the strife was done. With kindly greeting round the camp-fire met; And made an hour of mirth from danger won, Repay the day's stern toll, when the slow sun was set? Where are they ? Let the nameless graves declare, In strange, unwonted spots now frequent seen; Alas! who knows how much lies buried there: What worlds of love and ajl that might have been! The rest are scattered now I know not where And life to each a new employment brings; Bat still they seem to gather round ma here, To whom those places were familiar things. Though sundered wide by mountain and by stream, Once brothers still a brotherhood they seem; More close united, since a common woe, Hath brought to common hopes their overthrow. Brave hearts and true, In toil and danger tried, I see them still, as in those elorlous years. When strong and hopeful, battling side by side, All crowned weir aeeas wiin praise, ana some with tears. 'TIs done! The sword is sheathed, the banner furled: No sound where late the crashing missile whirled The dead alone are on the battle-plain The living turn them to life's cares again. O faience, blessed dreams unon thee wait: Here inougnt and reeling open ineir precious store And memorv. eatherina from the spoils of Fate, ixwe's scattered treasures, rmng mem oacit uuro more. So let me often dream, As up the brtghtnlng stream or nlrlp.n Tlmfi thnueht leads thee rentlv on. Seeking those better days, not lost, alas! but gone! reiersourg uauy iium-c. ARTHUR ACCEPTS. LETTER FROM THE BEPUBLI CAN CANDIDATE FOR VICE PRESIDENT. He At tack tke Frauds of His Any Own Party and 1 ppase to !TI ore Unlawful Counting: In. New York, July IS Dear Sir: l ac cent the Position assigned me by the srreat nartv whose action you announce A. - The acceptance implies approval of the DrinciDles declared by the convention, but recent usages permit me to add some expressions of my own views. The right and duty to secure honesty and order in popular elections is a mat ter so vital that it must stand in front of all others. The authority of the na tional erovernment to preserve from fraud and force the elections at which its own officers are chosen is a chief point on which the two parties are plainly and intensely opposed. The acts or Conerress for ten years have in New York and elsewhere done mucn 10 curD the violence and wrong to which the ballot and the count have been again and again subjected, sometimes despoil ing great cities, sometimes stifling the voice of a whole State, often seating not only in Congress, but on the bench and in the legislatures, numbers of men never chosen by the people, ihe uem ocratic party since gaining possession of the two Houses of Congress has made these iust laws the object of bit ter, ceaseless assault ; and, despite all resistance, has hedged them with re strictions cunningly contrived to baffle and paralyze them. This aggressive maioritv boldly attempted to extort from the executive his approval of va rious enactments destructive of these election laws by revolutionary threats, that a constitutional exercise of the veto power would be punished by with holding the appropriations necessary to carry on the government, and these threats were actually carried out by re fusing needed appropriations ana oy forcing an extra session of Congress lasting four months, and resulting in concessions to this usurping demand, which are likely in many States to sub ject the majority to the lawless will or a minority. Ominous signs of public disapproval alone suppressed this arro gant power into a sullen surrender for the time being of a part of its demands, The Republican party has strongly ap proved the stern refusal of its represen tatives to suffer the overthrow of stat utes believed to be salutary and just It has always insisted and now insists that the United States of Amer ica is empowered and in duty bound' to, effectually protect the elections denot- ed by the constitution as national More than this, the Republican part; 3 holds as a cardinal point in its,creei that the Government should oy every means known to the constitution pro tect all American citizens everywhere in the full enjoyment pt their civil and political rights.; As a great part of its work of reconstruction the Republican party gave' the ballot to the emancipat ed slave aa ' nis 1 ngnF ; ana ueiense. a laTfirA lrtAi-paspiln thft number' of 'mem bers of Congress, and of the electoral colleger from the former slaye-holding States, was the lmmediatet result. The historv of recent years abounds in evi dence that in many Ways and places, especially where their number has been great enough to endanger Democratic control those -by Whose elevation to citizenship this iaerease of representa tion was effected, have been debarred and sobbed, pt thei r? . xaice h and. thei? voterit is ' nortrue1 that any" Stat! statute or constitution m so many words denies or abridges the exercise of their political rights, but the modes mployedto bar, their .sw.ay . arenQ.iess.. rreciuai. jli is a augieeBuvt) uu s&arLr liner thouffht that the increased power derived rom Bnirancnisemeni of a race. now denied its snare in governing me country, wielded by those who lately sought the - overthrow -of :taj govern ment, is now the sole reliance' tQ defeat Nthe party which represented tne sover- gnty or tne nationality oi me B.menean seppie in tne greatest crisis oi our nis- -torvi ReDublioanacherisn none of the resentments wnicn may nav animatea them during the actual conflict of arms, They long for a full and real reconcilia tion between tne sections wnicn were needless! and lamentably at strife they sificerely offer' the hand of .good If aith ; they deeply feel that the party whose career is so illustrious in grea "and patriotic achievement will not f ul tu its destiny until peace anu prosperi ty, are established In' all the land rior imtil liberty of .thxjtight, - conscience action and eauality of opportunity shal not Udlcalled -formalities i of statutes hut living birthrights, which the hum ble may confidently claim and the powj rful dare not; aeny. ine resolution .referring ta the public service seems to jne deservtag -approval.. j iSBreiy Maa should, be rthe.Tincmbent ; o , no anJ office' the duties of which he is for. any cause unfit to, perform. who: Js lacking ! in the ability, fidelity or intelligence J which a proper administration of such office demands. This sentiment would doubtless meet with general acquies cence, but opinion has been widely divided upon the wisdom and practica bility of tne various reiormatory schemes which have been suggested and of certain proposed regulations governing appointments to public office. A no efficiency oi such . regulations u been aistrusxea, mainiy Because tney lave seemed to exalt mere educational and abstract taste above general busi ness capacity, and even special fitness for the particular work in nana- it seems to me tnat tne ruies wnicn should be applied to the management of public service may properly conform in the main to sucn as reguiatetne con duct of successful private business. Original appointments should be, based upon ascertained ntness. a ne tenure oi office should be stable. Positions of re sponsibility should, so far as practica ble, be hlled by the promotion or worthy and efficient officers. The in vestigation bf all the complaints and the punishment of ail official miscon duct, should be prompt and thorough These views, which 1 have long held. repeatedly declared, and uniformly ap plied, when called upon to, i hnd em- bodied in theresolution'.whlchof course approve. I will add. that by the ac ceptance of public office, whether a high or a low one, no man, in my judgment, can escape any of his responsibilities as a citizen, or lose or impair any of his rights as a. citizen, and that he should emov absolate. liberty to tnink ana speak and act in political matters ac cording to his own will ana conscience, provided only that he honorably faith fully and fully discharges all his official uuues; : i The resumption of specie pay ments, oiie of the fruits of Republican policy, has brought the return of abundant prosperity and the settlement of .-many distracting questioas, the restoration of sound money, the large reduction f our publie debt and the burden of in terest, and the high advancement of the public credit at last The ability and courage of the Republican. party to deal with such financial problems as may hereafter demand solution. - Our paper currency is now as0od as gold, anu Oliver is periviiumy ilo iegiM.iuMc function . for the purposes of change. The principles which should govern the relations of these elements Of the cur rency are ample and clear. There must be no deteriorated coin, no depreciated paper, and every dollar, whether of met al or paper, should stand tne oest or tne world s hxed standard. The value Of popular education can hardly be o verstated, Although 'its in terests must of necessity be chiefly con-, fined to voluntary effort and the indi vidual action of the several States, they should be encouraged so far as the con-' stitution permits, by the generous co operation of the national government. The interests or tne wnoie country de mand the advantages.. of one common system should be brought within the reach of every citizen, and that no reve nues of the nation or or tne states should be devoted to the support of sec tarian schools. Such changes should be made in the present tariff and system of taxation as will relieve any overburdened indus try or class, and enable our manufactu rers and artisans to compete success fully with those of other lands. The government should aid. works of inter nal improvement, national in their character, and should proa ote the de velopment of our water courses and harbors, wherever the general interest of commerce requires. -b our years ago, as now, the nation stood at the threshold of a presidential election, and the Republican party, in soliciting a continuance of its ascen dancy, founded its lope of success, not upon its promises, but upon its history. Its subsequent course has been such as to strengthen the claims which it then made to the confidence and support of the country. On the other hand, con siderations more urgent than nave ever before existed, forbid the accession of its opponents to power. Their success, if success attends them, must chiefly come from the united support of that section which sort the forcible disrup tion of the Union, and which, accord ing to all the teachings of our past his tory, will demand the ascendancy of that party to whose triumph it will haye made by far the largest contribu tion. There is the gravest question for apprehension that exorbitant claims upon the public treasury, by no mean limited to the hundreds of millions al ready covered by bills introduced in Congress within the past four years would be successfully urged if the Democratic party should succeed in supplementing its present control Qt national legislation by electing the Ex ecutive also. There is danger in in trusting control of the whole law mak ing power of a government to a party which has m almost every aoutnern State repudiated obligations quite as sacred as those to which the faith of the nation now stands pledged. I do dot doubt that success awaits the Re-' publican party, and that its triumph will assure a just, economical ana pa triotic administration. I am respect fully your obedint servant, : ;.
