jdMCXgOIBlT rTiA TffY God Ble? Too. How sweetly fall those simplo words Upon tho human heart, When friends long bound by strongest .;-tIes Are doomed by fate to part. You sadly press tho hand of those Who thus in loro caress you, And soul responsivo boats to soul, In breathing out "God bloss you." "God bless yon;" ahl long'nionths ago I heard tho mournful phrase. When one whom I in childhood lovod Went from my dreamy gaze. Now blinding tears fall thick and fast; I mourn my long loBt treasure, While echoes of the heart bring back The farewell prayer "God bless yon." Tho mother sending forth her boy To scenes untried and new, Lisps not a studied, stately speech, Nor murmurs out "adie u." She sadly Baye, between her sobs, "Whono'er misfortunes press you. Come to thy mother, boy, oome back," Then sadly sighs, "God bless you." "God bless you," more of expressed lovo Than volumes without number, Revealed we thus our trust in Him, Whose eye-lids never slumber. I ask in parting no long speech, Drawled ont in str lied measure, I only ask the dear old words, So sweot-so sad-"God bless you." WANTED-A GOVERNESS. A low, narrow room, the singlo window ourtained with coarse white muslin, the floor covered by a scanty carpet-somehow, the broad March sunshine brought out every element of poverty in the abode of tho poor widow and her daughter. "Put on a little more coal, Amy," said Mrs. Arde jham shudderingly, drawing her shawl closer around her frail figure, as she dropped her needle-work; "it is bitter cold this morning." Amy obeyed silently, yet she could not help noticing how nearly tho lit? tle stock of fuel was exhausted; and remembering how inadequate their slender purse was to the replenish? ment thereof, her heart sank a little. Only a little though, for Amy was not one of the desponding kind. No; she was a sunshiny little orea ture, full of bright, infectious hope? fulness-and somehow, in that squa? lid room, she seemed like a fresh rose blossoming in a sandy desert! She was very pretty, with brown, tender eyes, just the shade of the heavy braid of her hair above-a small, coral mouth, and cheeks deli? cately shaded; and as she took up tho newspaper, you couldn't help noticing what a showy, taper little hand she had, with pink-tipped fin? gers, and dimples at every joint. "Mamma," she said, suddenly, "here's an advertisement for a gover? ness." "Well, what of it?" asked her mother. "Why, mamma," hesitated Amy, "you know we aro very, very poor, and I should like very much to earn a little money." Mrs. Ardenham had bowed her face upon her hands, and in an in? stant, Amy was kneeling beside her. "Mamma, darling, don't cry!" sho said. "I did not mean to bo so foolish, love; but it all came back to mo at that moment-the wealth and station we have lost-the poverty to which we are reduced. Oh, Amy, it is too hard!" "But, think, mamma!" said Amy, cheerfully, "how delightful it will bo for me to make all my school accom? plishments help ns along in the world. May I try for this situation? I should like it so much." "If you think it best, my child," acquiesced Mrs. Ardenham, resigned? ly. "Then I must lose no timo," said Amy, as sho began to arrange her hair and adjust the details of her simple toilet. "How do I look, mamma?" she laughed, when, at length, she was ready to depart. And Mrs. Ardenham's admiring, affectionate glance brought the roses to her cheeks as she tripped away. For she did look exquisitely pretty. The coarse shawl took graceful curves about her slender form, and the cheap straw hat, with its plain black ribbon, might have been tho most fashionable of bonuots without being a whit more becoming. "Darling Amy!" pondered tho mothor, as her light footstep died away on tho stair; "she is a perfect little sunbeam in the darkness of my daily existence. Her heart has never ached with the bitter pangs of life's j sharpest trials." But Mrs. Ardenham was mistaken; Amy had tasted tho bitter cup-nay, she had drunk it to the very dregs! There was a vein of pootio appre? ciation soraewhero in tho jumble of fun and sentiment, good humor and sarcasm that constituted Frank Ashley, as he lay lazily on tho sofa, playing with two or three golden haired children, who wero toddling about the room. "I'll tell you what, Lizzie," said he to his sister, who sat embroidering, "you spoil those young imps about as completely as any mamma of my acquaintanco." "As if you didn't spoil them ten times worse!" responded Mrs. Jay, laughing. "When I succeed in ob? taining a governess, perhaps thoy will be put under some Bort of disci? pline. But really, Frank, I bavo always wondered that you have never married." "Indeed-why?" "You would make such a nice, domestic sort of a husband-yon are so fond of home. I know that, by that manoeuvring. Miss Boland laid a desperate siege to the rooky citadel of your heart, but I thought yon disliked her." "You were right," ho replied; "she was indescribably ropellant to me." "Then, why-" "Why did I never marry anybody else? Well, listen, Lizzie, and I'll tell you. I was once in love with one of the sweetest girls, I believe, that ever walked this earth. It was when I was staying at Brighton; she, too, was spending the winter^there. At first, I thought she encouraged my suit, but all at once she grew cold and distant. I determined, at all hazards, to know my fate, for I felt how wretched Ufe would bo without her. But the very evening that I had resolved to submit my suit to her-we were both invited to a party at Miss Roland's-I learned that she had loft the towu. Miss Boland told me, not in direot words, of course, but as delicately as possible, that it was to avoid my continuous atten? tions." "And did you credit this?" asked Mrs. Jay. "Of course," ho replied; "Miss Boland was one of her most intimato friends. I left Brighton the next day, and then and there ended all of love that it will ever be my fate to know." As he ceased speaking, a servant came in. "If you please, ma'am, a lady is below, who says she has come to apply for the situation of gover? ness. Shall I show her up?" Mrs. Jay assented, and the next moment Amy Ardonbam entered the room. "You seem very young," was one of the first remarks Mrs. Jay made. "I am eighteen, ma'am," said Amy, quietly. Frank Ashley, who had been read? ing the newspaper, glanced quickly up at the tone of her voice, and rose to his feet. At the same instant, Amy's eye met his, and she grow deadly pale. "Amyl" he exclaimed-"Miss Ar denham I" But Amy had fainted. An hour later, Frank Ashley was an accepted lover, and tho young lady who had promisod "to take charge of him" was our little Amy. "Tell mo about it, Frank," said his sister, when, at length, ho re? turned from accompanying Amy to her bumble tenement-a spot which would soon cease to be home. "We have both been tho victims of misrepresentation, Lizzie," said Frank; "Miss Boland assured Amy that I was engaged to her. What could Amy do but withdraw?" "Then she loved you all the time?" asked Mrs. Jay. "So she says," said her brother. "And, instead of my finding a go? verness, you obtain a wife!" laughed Mrs. Jay. "Oh, Frank, I am very glad!" _ A good story is told of an Ameri? can merchant, who, a few Sundays since, went into a fashionable Lou? don church, a few minutes after thc service had commenced, and stood in tho aisle. Tho pew-opener passed him several times, and took no notice of him. They show moro respect to a stranger in American churches, so ho determined to give them a lesson. Seeing that there was plenty of room in several pews, but that tho pow opener passed him, again and again, without offering him a scat, ho quiet? ly spread open his coat-tails and squatted down on tho neatly-mattod aisle. The clergyman noticed him, and looked at tho pow-openor, who at once went to him and offered him a seat. "No, thank you," ho whis? pered, "I am quito comfortable, and shall sit here all tho service." Prince Alfred does not describe his visit to Australia in very cordial terms. "At Adolaide," says his Boyal Highness, "they stole my jowels, ot Melbourne my character, and at Sidney the\ tried to take my life." DEMOCRATIC NOMINATIONS. MUNiciPAIi OFFICERS-CITY COLUMBIA.

Immediate restoration of all tho States to thoir rights in the Union, undor tho Constitution, and of civil government to tho American peoplo. 2d.

In demanding theso measures and r< forms, we arraign thc radical party for il disregard of right, and tho unparallele oppression and tyranny which have marl ed its career. After the most solemn an unanimous pledge of both Houses of Coi gross to prosecute the war exclusively ft tho maintenance of the Government ar tho preservation of tho Union, under tl Constitution, it has repeatedly violate that most sacred pledge, under whit alone was rallied that noble voluntci army, which carried our Hag to victory. Instoad of restoring tho Union, it ha so far as is in its power, dissolved it, ai subjectod ten States, in timcH of profoui peaco, to military despotism and neg supremacy. It has nullified there the right of tri by jury; it has abolished the habeas ea pus, that most sacred writ of liberty; has overthrown tho freedom of speech ai tho press; it has substituted arbitra Bcizures and arrests, and military triii and eocret star-chamber inquisitions f tho constitutional tribunals; it has disi garded, in timo of peaco, tho right of tl peoplo to be freo from searches and Bei ure?; it has entered the post and telegra; offices, and even tho privato rooms of I dividual*, and seized their privato pape and letters, without any specific charge notice of affidavit, as required hy tho < ganic law; it has converted tho Americ capitol into a bast ile; it has established system of spies and official espionago which no constitutional monarchy of I ropo would now dare to resort; it has al lished tho right of appeal on importa constitutional questions to tho suprei jiuii.-ial tribunals, and threatens to ci tail or destroy its original jurisdicth which is irrevocably vested by tho Cons tution, while tho learned Chiot Just has been subjected to tho most atrooic calumnies, merely hocauso he would i prostitute his high oftico to tho support tho false and partizan charges prefer? against the President. Its corruption a extravagance have exceeded anythi known in history, and by its frauds n monopolies it has nearly doubled tho b den of the debt created' by the war. It I Stripped the President of his const ii ut i al power of appointment even of his o Gabinet. Under its ropeatod assaults, pillars of tho Government are rocking their base, and should it Huccced in 1 vember next, and inaug?rate its Preside wo will meet, as a subjected and couque people, amid tho ruins or liberty and scattered fragments of tho Constituti and wo do declare and resolve that, e since tho peoplo of tho United Stn throw off all subjection to tho Brit crown, tho privilege and trust of aufftf havo belonged to tho several States, i have been granted, regulated and c trolled exclusively hy tho political po1 of each State respectively, and that i attempt by Congress, on any pretoxt wi over, to deprive any State of this right to interfere with its exercise, is a tlagr usurpation of power which can find warrant in tho Constitution; and, if sn tioned by tho people, will subvert our fe of Government, and can only end I single centralized and consolidated vernniont, in which tho separate existe of tho State? will bo entirely absorbed, an uuqiialitiud despotism bo ?etabba in place of a Federal Union ol' co c< States; and that wo regard the reconati tion Acts (so-called) of Congress as H are usurpations, and unconstitutional, vclutionary, and void; that our sold and sailors, who carried the flag of country to victory against a moat gal and determined foe, must ever be gr hilly romombered, and all the guaran given in their favor must be faithfully car? ried into exeontion. That the public lands should be distri? buted as widoly as possible among the people, and should be disposed of either under the pre-emption of homestead lands, and Bold in reasonable quantities, and to none bnt aetual occupants, at the mini? mum price oetabliehod by the Government. When granta of the public lands may be allowed, necessary for tho encouragement of important public improvements, tho ?roceeds of the salo of such lands,'and not ho lands themselves, should bo so ap? plied. That tho Trosidont of tho United States, Andrew Johnson, in exercising tho powor of hie high office in resisting tho aggres? sions of Congrosa upon tho constitutional rights of the States and tho people, is en? titled to the gratitude of tho whole ?mcri can pooplo, and in behalf of tho Democra? tic party, wo tondor him our thanks for his patriotic efforts in that regard. Upon this platform, tho Democratic party appoal to every patriot, including all tho conservative element and all who de? sire to support the Constitution and ro storo tho Union, forgetting all past differ? ences of opinion, to unite with us in tho present great struggle for tho liberties of tho people; and that to all such, to what? ever party they may havo heretofore be? longed, wo extend tho right hand of fel? lowship, and hail all such co-operating with us as friends and brethren. A Great Spring and Summer IN VIGOR A.TOR AND RESTORER. NOW IS THE TIME TO CLEANSE OUT those PERILOUS SPOTS, Pimples, corrupt sores, which POLLUTE tho LIFE of tho BLOOD, and render your body a loathesomo thing. They aro the precur? sors of a diseased blood, and will assumo a much moro formidablo shape if allowed io go on unchecked. Tho QUEEN'S DE? LIGHT, tho only real blood purifier that has ever boen invented, as thousands will to-day attest, is offered to tho afflicted as a positive remedy for all diseases flowing from a vitiated condition of tho svtitem. THE LIFE OF THE FLESH ?S PUBE BLOOD. Upon this theory alono tho in? ventor of tho Quoon's Delight establishes the groat hygienic law, WITHOUT PUBE BLOOD NO FLESH IS FREE FROM DIS? EASE. Tho Palo and Shrunken Forms, Yellow Faces. Woak Stomachs, Diseased Livers. Crippled Rheumatics, Nervous Hypochondriacs, Dyspeptic Victims of Headache, so common in this country, is owing entirelv to tho humors of thc blood. Very many other diseases may bo traced to bad blood, Scrofula or King's Evil, Erysi? pelas, Exanthema or Elevare, a rash or eruption on females; Blotches, Tetter, Goitre or Swelled Neck, Syphilis and 8y ?hilitic Sores, Strumous Ulcors, Ac. hese caunot bo cured without purifying tho blood. Now as to tho remedy. There is no othor blood purifier that will accom? plish such positive and extraordinary cures as Hciuit sb's Queen's Delight. You may take a barrel of extract Sarsaparilla, and still you will not bo cured; and, as a proof of it, look around and you will observo tho country, throughout its length and breadth, is flooded with compound Sarsa Earilhis, extracts and syrups, claiming to o blood purifiers, and yet we seo to-day moro evidence of impurity of tho blood than ever. Why is this? Simply because these extracts and Sarsaparillas aro worth? less medicine?. The Queen's Delight ia a new compound, and ia now tho great blood medicine; Bane? tioned by the profession, patronized by the highest dignitaries of the lund, endorsed by everybody. In tho brief period of twelve months, over 3,000 cases have been treated HO suc? cessfully as to entitle it to bo tho wonder of tho agc. For debility, prostration, nervousness, mental depression, impaired digestion, loss oi appetite, rostlesncss, want of vital force. Low spirits; it is more invigorat? ing and strengthening than all the com? pounds of bark or bitters. As a liver tnvigorator, it is of inestimable value. As a stimulant, it is safer and surer than all thc rum and whiskey tonics of thc day, and if you value your lifo and health a pin's feo, avoid these quickening stimu? lants to tho grave and uso tho Queen's Delight. Ask for Heinitsh's Queen's De? light. This is not the Extract of Stellin gia or Queen's Delight, nor is it a Com? pound Syrup of Queen's Delight, or Sarsa? parilla and Queen's Delight, but simply Heinitsh's Queen's Delight is tho trude mark. Ask for this if you want to h cured, and seo that tho" namo of E. H. Heinitsh is on tho wrapper. Prepared only by E. II. Heinitsh. Wholesale agents, FISHER A HEINITSH, April 18 j_Columbia. S^O^ DR.
