Providence. What we call evils, thoog? disguised they be, j. Axe naught bot providential gooa, . in mercy sent, _,L. . A Which oor contrary prayers withstood, And our short-sighted reason would pre? vent: And cannot seo, . . . ? With partial vision, that each dreadod pain Works for the patient sufferer an eternal gain. Thus do the varied colors of the bow 33ont by the hands or the Most High, God's pro ni?ed sign That spreads across the misty sky .As tho sun's flaming orb doth Blow decline, Refracted BO, If but in one full boam they aU unite, .Flash through the universe at once its perfect light. THE CONTENTION or ISRAELITES. Tho second day's session of the B'nai B'ritb, or seoret benevolent so? cieties of the Israelites, took place at the Alemannia Club House, in New "York, on Monday. Mr. Benau, of Cincinnati, one of the two original loundors of the order, was present, and was received with appropriate lionors. The usual reports were re? ceived, and standing committees ap? pointed. The report of the Speoial Committee on tho Constitution, ap? pointed last year, was presented. It exhibited the growth and prosperity of the order throughout the United .-States, and recommended tho crea? tion of a new district (No. 6) in the Western States, and the institution of a Grand Lodge, with headquarters at Chicago. The report was nnani mo-.q]y adopted, and the executive officers n? ftjQ Convention were in? structed to -.(vrry out the suggestions of the com mi u.a. The report of tn? Grand Maskir, < (Secretary,) Jahns Bieu. wa8 then presented. It touehes upon u. 0 death of his predecessor, and his own ap? pointment, and states that twelv? new subordinate Lodges and one Grand Lodge were instituted last year. Tho B'nai B'rith is a secret order Uko the ancient Essenes, Bosiora oions and Free Masons, and it has existed in this country about twenty five years. It comprises five Grand Lodges and 115 local Lodges, with a membership exceeding 12,000. The headquarters of the Grand Lodges are as follows: 1st, New York city; 2d, Cincinnati; 3d, Philadelphia; 4th, San Francisco; 5th, Baltimore. The objects for which the order is founded are the promotion of the highest interests of humanity, a liberal support of science and art, the inculcation of philanthropy, honor and patriotism, and above all, the promulgation of the dootrines of ?Judaism among its professors. These are the cardinal principles of tho order: .1. All men are brethren, ohildren of one God, and having the same inali?nable rights. 2. Nations and associations must be governed by law; but the social relations among individuals shall be regulated by love. 3. Charity and enlightenment are tho choicest gifts of love, and to their promotion the Sons of the League are devoted. 4. Tho promotion of the best interests of mankind is effected by continued efforts of asso? ciated lovers of their race. 5. The doctrines of Judaism are divine and eternal, the laws of all civilization and . enlightenment, of universal charity and fraternity, and their pro? mulgation and observance are the inculcation and practice of all those great lovers of humanity." The order has an Orphans' Home . at Cleveland, which has been pro? vided >by the quarterly payment of members. It is proposed, also, to erect ? home for orphans, and other . indigent persons, in New York. ' ??? ? A COURT DRESS OP MARIE. ANTOI : NETTE ON EXHIBITION.-An antique - court dress, worn by the ill-fated - . Queen of France, (Marie Antoinette,) .now in possession of the Fenian Volunteer office, in Buffalo, New "York, is attracting muoh attention. The dress is a superb brocade silk, .elaborately embroidered, and an im? mense train of the same rich mate? rial The dress was recently pur? chased of Bev. 0. F. Robertson, of Malone, New York, administrator of -the estate of the late Rev. Eleazor "Williams, tho reputed son of Marie Antoinette. It was originally ob? tained by an attache of the American Embassy at Paris, for Mrs, Edward Clarke, of Northampton; and, on the return of the latter to this country, in 1851, was presented to Mr. Wil? liams, she being fully convinced that he was the genuine son of the un? fortunate) Marie. DECLINED WITH THANKS.-A Ken? tucky clergy mon, Rev. Cad wallader Lewis, has declined tho honorary degree of Doctor of Laws, modestly averring that he knows nothing about law, having found leisure only to gualify himself for preaching the fospel. ThiB honost clergyman adds, with a quiet wit, that his expe? rience as a trustee of a college proves that honorary degrees "are generally sought by tho friends of those upon .whom they are conferred." L. D. Sinclair hos been driving a stage between Dover and Conway, N. H., forty-two years, having bo gun at the nge of sixteen. He claims lo have traveled 845,490 miles, or thirty-four times rouud the world. He still follows the business. A fond mother, in excusing the late hours kept by a favorito son, declared that "he had suoh an over-plus of spirits that, not being able to exhaust them all in one night, he was forcibly driven to encroach upon the next morning to enablo him to get tbrough them." This "heated term" is enough to make one desperate. A wicked wag says the only reason ho does not commit suicido is, ho fears it would be "jumping from tho frying-pan into the fire." Mrs. Wildman, of Vineland, N. J., painted the outside of her house one day last week, and on Sunday she preached for the Unitarian minister, giving, it is said, satisfaction to a largo audience. * A Texas man gavo it as his opinion when importuned to take out a poli? cy in a Ufe insurance company, that a fellow's life was so mighty uncer? tain about there, it wasn't worth insuring. A courtly negro recently sent a reply to an invitation, in which he regretted "that circumstances repug? nant to the acquiesce would prevent his accepranco to the invite." They have a new drink down East, they caU "Butler Cocktails." You stir it up with a spoon, squint one eye, and put the spoon in your pocket. After a military funeral of a sol? dier, in New South Wales, the band returned and serenaded his widow. It was so hot in Cincinnati last week, that hens left their nests, and tho eggs were hatohed by the sun. DEMOORATIC NOMINATIONS. MUKICrPAIi OFFICERS-CITY COLUMBIA. For Mayor. COL. J. P. THOMAS.

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 loa th es onie thing. They aro tho precur? sors of a diseased blood, and will assume a much more formidable shape if allowed to go on unchecked. Tho QUEEN'S DE? LIGHT, tho only real blood purifier that has ever been invented, as thousands will to-day attest, is offered to the afilicicd as a positivo remedy for all dieoaseu dowing from a vitiated condition of the svstem. THE LIFE OF THE FLESH ?S PURE BLOOD. Upon this theory alono tho in? ventor of the Queen's Delight establishes tho great hygienic law, WITHOUT PURE BLOOD NO FLESH IS FREE FROM DIS? EASE. Tho Palo and Shrunken Forms, Yellow Faces. Weak Stomachs, Diseased Livers. Crippled Rheumatics, Nervous Hypochondriacs, Dyspeptic Victims of Headache, so common in this country, is owing entirely to tho humors of tho blood. Very many other disoases may bo traced to bad blood, Scrofula or King's Evil, Erysi pelas. Exanthema or Elevure, a rash or erupt ion on females; Blotches, Tetter, Goitro or Swelled Neck, Syphilis and Sy? philitic Sores, "timmins Ulcers, ftc These cannot bo cured without purifying the blood. Now as to the remedy. There is no other blood purifier that will accom? plish snch positivo and extraordinary cures as Heinitsn's Queen's Delight. You may take a barrel of extract Sarsaparilla, and still you will not be cured; and, as a proof of it, look around and you will observo the country, throughout its length and breadth, is flooded with compound Sarsa? parillas, extracts and syrups, claiming to bo blood purifiers, and yet wo seo to-day moro evidence of impurity of tho bioud j than ever. Why is thu;? ?imply bocauae | these extracts and Sarsaparillas are worth? less modicinoe. Tho Queen's Delight is a new compound, and is now tho great blood medicine; sane- , tioned by tho profession, patronized by tho 1 highest dignitaries of the land, endorsed by everybody. In the brief period of twelve mouths, over 3,000 casos have boen treated so suc? cessfully as to entitle it to bo tho wonder of tho ago. For dobility, proatration, nervousness, montai depression, impaired digestion. IOSB of appetite, restlesness, want of vital force. Low spirits; it is moro invigorat? ing and strengthening than all tho com fiounds of bark or bitters. As a liver nvigorator, it is of inestimable value. As a stimulant, it is safer and surer than all tho rum and whiskey tonics of tho day, and if you valne your lifo and health a flin's fee, avoid these quickening; stillm? an ts to the grave and nse the Queen's Delight. Ask for Heinitsh's Queen's De? light. Thi*iBi>t>t tho Extract of Stellin gia or Queen's Delight, nor is it a Com? pound 8>rup of Qnoon's Delight, or Sarsa Sarilla and Queen's Delight, but simply leinitsh's Queen's Delight is the trade mark. Ask for this if you want to be cured, and see that the name of E. H. Heinitsh is on the wrapper. Prepared only by E. H. Heinitsh. Wholesale agents, FISHER A HEINITSH, April 18 t Columbia, 8. C. THE PLATFORM OF THE Democratic National Convention. The Democratic party, in National Con vention assembled, reposing its trimt in the intelligence, patriotism and discrimi? nating justice of tho people-standing upon the Constitution as the foundation and limitation of tho powers of the Go? vernment, and tho guarantee of the liber? ties of tho citizen, and recognizing tho questions of slavery and secession as having been settled, for all time to como, by the war, or the voluntary action of the Southern States, in Constitutional Con? ventions assembled, and never to be re? newed or re-agitated, do, with tho return of peace, demand: let. Immediate restoration of all tho States to their rights in tho Union, under the Constitution, and of civil government to tho American people. 2d. Amnesty for all past political offences, and tho regulation of tho elective franchise in tbo States by their citizens. 3d. Fayment of tho public dobt of tho United btates as rapidly as practicable; all moneys drawn from thc people by tax? ation, except so much as ia requisito for the necessities of tho Government, econo? mically administered, being honestly ap? plied to such payment; and, where the obligations of tho Government do not expressly state upon their face, or the law under which they were ia mi ed does not pr?vido that they shall bo paid in coin, they ought, in right and in justice, be paid in the lawful money of tho United States. 4th. Equal taxation of every species ol property, according to its real value, in? cluding Government bonds and other pub? lic securities. 5th. One currency for tho Government and tho people, the laborer and tho office? holder, the pensioner und tho soldier, thc producer and tho bond-holder. 1 Gth. Economy in the administration ol the Government; tho reduction of thc standing army and navy; tho abolition o: tho Freedmen's Bureau, and all polit icu instrumentalities designed to seenre negro supremacy; simplification of thc system and discontinuance of inquisitori? al modes of assessing and collecting inter nal revenuo, BO that the burden of taxa tion may bo equalized and loasoned, thc credit of tho Government and thc curren cy made good; the repeal of all enact monta for onrolling tho State militia inte national forces in time of peace; and < tariff for revenue upon foreign importa and such equal taxation, under tho, inter nal revenue laws, ao will afford incidenta protection to domestic manufactures, anc as will, without impairing tho revenue impose tho least burden upon and bes promote and encourago tho great indus trial interests of tho country. 7th. Reform of abuses in thc administra tlon, the expulsion of corrupt men fron ofiico, the abrogation of useless offices tho restoration of rightful authority t< and tho independence of thc cxecutivi and judiciary departments of tho Govern ment, tho subordination of thc unlit arv ti tho civil power, to the end that tin usurpations of Congress and thc deenot ism of tho sword may cease. 8th. Equal rights and protection fo naturalized ana nat i ve-bom citizens, a homo and abroad; the assertion of A mer i can nationality which shall command th respect of foreign potrera, and furnish ai example and encouragement to pcopl struggling for national integrity, consti tutional liberty and individual rights; um tho maintenance of tho rights ol natural ized citizens against thc absoluto doctrin of immutable allegiance and thc claims c foreicn power? to punish them for allege* crime committed beyond their iurisdic tion. In demanding these measures and re forms, we arraign tho radical party for it disregard of right, and tho unparallele oppression and tyranny which have marl cu ita career. After the most solemn an unanimous pledge of both Houses of Cor gross to prosecute the war exclusively fe the maintenance of the Government* an tho preservation of tho Union, uuder th Constitution, it has repeatedly violate that most sacred pledge, under whic alono was rallied that noble voluntec army, which carried our Hag to victory. Instead of restoring tho Union, it har eo far as is in its power, dissolved it, an subjected ten States, iu times of profoun peace, to military despotism and nogr supremacy. It has nullified there tho right of trii hy jury; it has abolished tho habeas co. pus, that moat sacred writ of liberty; has overthrown tho freedom of speech an tho presa; it has substituted arbitrai seizures and arrests, and military tria and secret star-chamber inquisitions ft tho constitutional tribunals; it has disr garded, in time of peace, tho right of tl people to be freo from searches and aei ure?; it has entered the post andtelegrar offices, and oven tho private rooms of i: dividuals, and seized their private pape and letters, without any specific chargo i notice of affidavit, aa required by tho o ganic law; it has converted the Arnerict capitol into a bastile; it has established syatem of spies and official espionage which no constitutional monarchy of E rope wonld now daro to resort; it has ab baned the right of appoal on importai constitutional questions io tho suprei judicial tribunals, and threatens to cu tail or destroy its original juriadictio which ia irrevocably vested by the Const tution, while the learned Cluer Justi baa been subjected to the most atrocio calumnies, merely because he would n prostitute his high office to tho support the falso and partizan charges proferr against the President. Its corruption ai extravagance havo exceeded anythii known in history, and by ita frauds ai monopolies it has noarly doubled tho br den of the debt created by the war. It h stripped the President of hisconatitutie al power of appointment even of his oi Cabinet. Under ita repeated assaults, t pillars of tho Government are rocking their baso, and should it succeed in > vcmber next, and inaugurate ita Prosidoi we will meet, aa a subjected and conquer people, amid tho ruina of liberty and t scattered fragmenta of tho Constitutif and wo do declaro and resolve that, e> since tho peoplo of tho United Sta threw off all subjection to the Briti crown, tho privilege and trust of suffra have belonged to tho several States, a have been granted, regulated and ct trolled exclusively by tho political poi of each Stato respectively, and that a attempt by Congress, on any pretext wh over, to deprivo any State of this right, to interfere with its exercise, ia a tlagri usurpation of power which can find warrant in tho Constitution; and, if sa: tioned by tho people, will subvert our fo of Government, and can only end i mogln centralized and consolidated < vornment, iu whioh the separate existoi of the States will bo entirely absorbed, t an unqualified despotism bo establial in place of a Federal Union of co-eq .states; and that we regard the reconaur tion Acts (so-called) of Congress as si are usurpations, and nnoonstitational, volutionary, and void; that oar soldi and sailors, who carried the flag of country to victory against a most gall and determined foe, must ever be gri I tully remembered, and all the guaran t giren in their favor must be faithfully car? ried into oxccution. That tho public lands should be distri? buted aa widely as possible ?.meng the people, and should be disposed of either under the pre-emption of homestead Ianda, and sold in reasonablo quantities, and to none put actual occupants, at the mini? mum price established by the Government. When grants of tho public lands may bo allowed, necessary for the encouragement of important public improvements, tho proceeds of tho Balo of such lands, and not thc lands themselves, should bo so ap? plied. That tho President of tho United States, Andrew Johnson, in exercising tho power of his high ornoo in resisting tho aggres? sions of Congress upon the constitutional rights of the States and tho people, is en? titled to tho gratitudo of tho whole Amcri can peoplo, and in behalf nf thc Democra? tic party, wo tender him our thanks for his patriotio efforts in that regard. Upon this platform, tho Democratic party appeal to ovcry patriot, including all tho conservativo element and all who de? sire to support tho Constitution and ro storo tho Union, forgetting all past differ? ences of opinion, to unite with ns in the present great struggle for tho liberties of tho people; and that to all such, to what? ever party they may have heretofore be? longed, we extond tho right hand of fel? lowship, and hail all such co-operating with us as friends and brethren.
