Dead lu the Street. Cutler the lamp-lights, dead in toe street, Delicate, fair, and only twenty, . ? There she lies. ?x-. Face to the skies. Starved to dont h in a city of plenty; Spurned by all that is pure and sweet, Passed by buBy and oarolosB feet Hundreds bent upon folly and pleasure: Hundred s with plenty, and time, and lei? sure Lcisuro to speed Christ's mission below, To teach theorring and raisotho lowly Plenty, in charity's name, to show That life has something divine and holy. Boasted charms-classical brow, Delicate features-look at them now; Look at b?r lipa-once thoy could Bmlle; Eyes-well, nevor more shall they beguile; Never more, never more word of here A blush shall bring to tho saintliest face. She has found, let us hope and trust, Peaoe in a higher and botter place; And yet, despite of all still, I ween, Joy of some heart she must have been; Some fond mother, proud of the task, Has stooped to finger each dainty curl; Somo vain father has bowed to ask A blessing for her, his darling girl. Hard to think, aa wo look at her tbero, Of all the tenderness, love and caro, Lonely watching and sore heart-ache, . . All the agopy, burning tears, JoyB and aorrows, and hopes and fears, Breatbod and suffered for her sweet sake. Faucy will picture a home afar, Out where the daisies and buttercups are, Out where life-giving breezes blow, Far from tbeso" sodden streets, foul and low; Fancy will picture a lonely hoarth, And an aged couple dead to mirth An aged couple, broken and grey, Kneeling beside a bed to pray; Or lying awake o' nights to hark Tor a thing that may como in thc rain and tho dark. A hollow-eyed woman, with woary feet, Better they never know She whom they cherished so Lies this night, lone and low, Dead in the street. WILLIE'S WIFE. A blustering evening I I am all alone. An old maid, with no hus? band to destroy her peace, nor any dreadful anoyances in the shape of children, with money enough at interest to keep the wolf from the door, and a house of her own over? head, might surely expect, after the tea things were washed and put away, the fire made, the table drawn close to it, the lamp close to her elbow, and a hook close to her nose an old maid thus happily situated might, I say, in all reason, expect a comfortable time. Alas! far f/om it! The wind whistles around the house with more than ordinary defiance, and I tremble inwardly; for well do I know, and well does it know, also, the cracks and holes in my dilapidat? ed dwelling. Here it comes whis? tling and roaring! With a whisk it turns my new wig askew; with another, the leaves of my book are fluttering and flapping, as if they were in league with the boisterous ?"thing. I adjust my wig and refind my place in vain. There it comes, again ' and again. A rough blast down the chimney sends the smoke pouring into the room, scattering a shower of ashes over my clean white - curtains. I slam my book with a petulant jerk, take np my lamp and start on an indignant march up to bed. Creak, creak go the hoards, as if they were possessed. The door refuses to open; I jerk and pull spasmodical? ly; another blast of wind; my lamp goes out; still I tug at the door; it opens suddenly, and down I go. Miss Jemima Bloor picks herself up, minus dignity, temper au? a wig. I grope my way np-stairs, stepping angrily on certain shaking steps, and running a splinter into my hand from the broken banister. I reach my room at last; must leave the door open because the lock is out of order; undress, creep into bed, and cannot close my eyes, because there is a loose piece of plaster gaping just above my head-more terrible to me than the sword of Damocles. During the long hours of that sleepless night, I worked myself up to a desperate resolution. The case, .you see, was grave and urgent. I xan imminent risk of losing that bland, amiable disposition which (as I know from the concurrent testi? mony of my most discriminating . friends) is natural to me. Tho house shall be thoroughly repaired! Not another night will I sleep in it till it is! I arose at peep of day, and noon "found me domesticated at Mrs. Robinson's, just over the way. I am io sleep on the lounge in her parlor, .?or the little w?man possesses only two rooms and a kitchen. I immediately assembled all tho carpenters, glaziers, tinners, briok . layers, painters and paper-hangers with whom our village is blessed. "My hou.Ho is being repaired and . renewed outside and in. I contem? plate the ohanges thus going on with -well, let the truth be told-with somewhat mixed emotions. I am slowly coming to tho conclusion that there is no such thing as perfect happiness in this sublunary sphere. Men are so intensely aggravating, especially carpenters, glaziers, tin? ners, brick-layers, painters and pa? per-hangers. One afternoon wo sat-my hostess and I-in her little parlor; I at the front window, looking across the ?street an A watching that rascally John Stocker, the carpenter. Good heavens! There ho sat in my best room window, swinging his heels And smoking a pipe-not a thought of my work in his head ! Now, the odious oreature knows-no one bet ? .?? . -_. _. ter-what s hurry I am in and how I detest a pipo. Yet here I may be, for all he cares, steeping on Mrs. Robinson's lounge for a month or rtwo, and all the time my parlor Miss 'Jemima Blo'or'a best room scented with tobacco! I wonder if the mau expects to go to Heaven when he dies? I wonder if he ex? pects me to pay him three dollars a day for smoking his pipe and swing? ing his heels? Ah! there comes Joseph Baldwin just hack from dinner, and-let me see-it's twenty-five minutes past 2. If I had my way about women's rights, I'd put the men out of this world altogether; that would settle the question What are they, after all, but an aggravation, a marplot and a general nuisance? Now, there goes Will Wiley, tramping right over my verbena bed! Has tho man no eyes in his head? or did his mother never succeed in beat? ing it into his dull brain that a ver? bena bed is not to be walked on, and that a garden path is? And, now I think of it, it was only yesterday I found five broken panes in my up-stairs window. Yet that faithless, good-for-nothiug glazier had sworn to mo that very morning that hu had taken every sash out, from garret to cellar, and left all in perfect order. Lords of creation, indeed! Lords of fiddle-sticks! Wonderful example of superior in? tellect-was it not? to take a window sash out for repairs, and put it back in perfect order with five broken panes in it! If Miss Jemima Bloor were to sit in a maiden lady's best room window and smoke a pipe and swing her heels-if she were to come from dinner to her work at twenty five minutes after 2-if she were to go tramping about on people's ver? bena beds-if she were to declare a window-sash with five broken panes completely repaired-would she call herself a lady of creation and a supe? rior intellect? I ask the world, would she call herself a lord or a Indy of creation and a su At this point, my indignant re? flections were interrupted by a soft splish-splash and a subdued little flutter of sobs. My hostess had been knitting, with her comfortable fat hands, a baby's hood for Mrs. Peters, next door. As I looked up, I saw the tears trickle down on her knitting needles, till they shone nnd winked at me in an impish manner. This little woman is my mental cushion-my social rest. Mild, round and rosy in body, crying is the only luxury she seems thoroughly to enjoy. The tears roll over her plump cheek as if they were used to it, and leave them plumper thau before. The round, light-bluo eyes are always ready for a shower, and look all the rounder and bluer after it is over. I never knew her to have an original idea of any description. The thought of her whole life had been "her Willie." Mrs. Robinson, although a weak little woman enough, has had a curious history of her own. She was an orphan; had married at twenty, William Robinson, a sailor of tho town, and had moved into her present home with her hus? band aud au uncle, with whom she had lived before her marriage. Two months afterward young William sailed for India. The appointed time for his return has passed; month by month went by, and still his wife looked for him who never camtt. After two years the old undo was laid at rest, and the little woman was left quite alone. How she waited and watched watched all through youth, all through middle age-waited and watched in vain through twenty long, long years! ?CONTINUED IN OUR NEXT. I DEM00RAT1C NOMINATIONS.

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 are tho precur? sors of a diseased blood, and will assumo a much moro formidable shape if allowed to go on unchecked. The QUEEN'S DE? LIGHT, the only real blood purifier that bas ever been invented, as thousands will to-day attest, is offered to the afllicted as a positive remedy for all diseases flowing from a vitiated condition of the svstem. THE LIFE OF THE FLESH ?S PURE BLOOD. Upon this theory alono the in? ventor of tho Queen's Delight establishes the great hvgienic 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 I Hypochondriacs, Dyspeptic Victims of | Headache, so common in this country, is owing entirely to the humors of thc blood. Very many other diseases may bo traced to bad blood, Scrofula or King's Evil, Erysi? pelas, Exauthema or Elevare, a rash or eruption on females; Blotches, Tetter, Goitre or Swelled Neck, Syphilis and Sy? philitic Sores, Strumous Ulcers, Ac. These cannot bo cured without purifying tho blood. Now as to tho remedy. There is no othor blood pu: ifler that will accom? plish such positive and extraordinary cures as Heinitsli's Queen's Delight. You may take a barrel of extract Sarsaparilla, and still you will not bo cured; and, as a proof I of it, look around and you will observo the country, throughout its length and breadth, is flooded with compound Sarsa Earillas, extracts and syrups, claiming to e blood purifiers, and yet wo see to-day moro evidence of impurity of the blood than ever. Why is this? Simply because these extracts and Sarsaparillas arc worth? less medicines. Tho Queen's Delight is a new compound, and is now the great blood medicine; sanc? tioned by the profession, patronized by the highest dignitaries of the land, endorsed by everybody. "in tho brief period of twelve months, over 3,000 cases have been treated so : cesdfullj aa to entitle it to be thc wonder of tho ago. For debility, prostration, nervousness, mental depression, impaired digestion, loss of appetite, restlesuesa, want of vital force. Low spirits; it ia more invigorat? ing and strengthening than all the com? pounds of bark or bitters. As a liver invigorator, it is of inestimable value. As a stimulant, it is suter and surer than all tho rum and whiskey tonics of tho day, and if you value your lifo and health a fdn's fee, avoid these quickening stimu ants to the grave and uso the Queen's Delight. Ask for Heinitsli's Queen's De? light. This is not tho 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 the trade mark. Ask for this if you want to bc cured, and seo that tho name of E. H. Hcinitsh ?son tho wrapper. Prepared only bv E. H. Hcinitsh. Wholesale agents, FISHER A HEINlTSH, April 18 j_Columbia. S. C.

Immediate restoration of all the 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 the regulation of the electivo franchise in tho States by the ir citizens. 3d. Payment of the public debt of thc United States as rapidly aa practicable; all moneys drawn from the people by tax? ation, except, BO much as ?H requisito for tho necessities of the Government, econo? mically administered, being honestly ap? plied to such payment; and, whore tho obligations of tho Government do not expressly state upon their face, or thc law under which they were issued does not provide that they shall bc paid in coin, they ought, in right and in justice, be paid in the lawful money cf 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 the people, tho" laborer and tho office holder, the pensioner and the soldier, tho producer and the bond-holder. . Gth. Economy in tho administration ot tho Government; thc reduction of tho standing army and navy; tho abolition of the Freedmen's Bureau, and all political instrumentalities designed to secure negro supremacy; simplification of tho system and discontinuance of iuquisitori I al modes of assessing and collecting inter? nal revenue, BO that the burden of taxa? tion may bo equalized and lessened, tho credit of tho Government and the curren? cy mado good; tho repeal of all enact? ments for enrolling the State militia into national forces in time of peace; and a tariff for revenue upon foreign imports, and such equal taxation, under the inter? nal revenue laws, as will afford incidental protection to domestic manufactures, and as will, without impairing thc revenue, impose the least burden upon and best promote and encourage tho great indus? trial iuterests of the country. 7th. Reform of abuses in the administra? tion, tho expulsion ol' corrupt men from oflice, tho abrogation of useless oflices, the restoration of rightful authority te and thc independence of tho executive and judiciary departments of tho Govern? ment, tho subordination of the military tc tho civil power, to tho end that thc usurpations of Congress and thc despot? ism of tho sword may cease.

After the most solemn am unanimous pledge of both Houses of Con gross to prosecute tho war exclusively fo the maintenance of thc Government an? the preservation of thc Union, under th Constitution, it has repeatedly violate? that most sacred pledgo, under whicl alono was rallied that noblo voluntce army, which carried our Hag to victory. Instead of restoring tho Union, it has so far as is in its power, dissolved it, au subjected ten States, in times of profoum peace, to military despotism and negr supremacy. It has nullified thoro tho right of triii by jury; it has abolished tho habeas cot pus, that most sacred writ of liberty; i has overthrown tho freedom of speech an tho press; it has substituted arbitrar seizures and arrests, and military trial and secret star-chamber inquisitions fe tho constitutional tribunals; it has disr< garded, in time of peace, tho right of th people to bo freo from searches and sei: ure?; it has entered tho post and telegrap offices, and even tho private rooms of n dividual*, and seized their privato papei and letters, without any sp?cifie charge t notice of affidavit, as required by tho o ganic law; it has converted the America capitol into a bastile; it has established system of spies and official espionage 1 which no constitutional monarchy of El rope would now daro to report; it has ab linked the right of appeal on importai constitutional questions to tho supren judicial tribunals, and threatens to cu tail or destroy its original jurisdietio which is irrevocably vested by tho Const tution, whilo tho learned Chief Justii has been subjected to tho most atrocioi I calumnies, merely becauso bo would n prostitute his high oflieo to tho support tho false and partisan charges profem against the President. Its corruption ai extravagance havo exceeded anytub known in history, and by its frauds ai monopolies it has nearly doubled tho bu don of tho debt created' by tho war. It h stripped the President of" his const itutio al power of appointment even of his o^ Cabinet. Under its repeated assaults, t pillars of tho Government are rocking i their h.'..ie, and should it succeed in N vember next, and inaugurate its Presidei wo will meet, as a subjected and conquer people, amid tho ruins of liberty and t scattered fragments of tho ConstitutR and wo do declaro and resolve that, ey sinco the peoplo of tho United Stal threw off all subjection to tho Rriti crown, the privilege and trust of suffra have belonged to tho several States, a havo been granted, rogulatcd and ct trolled exclusively by tho political pon of each State respectively, and that a attempt by Congress, on any pretext wh ever, to deprive any State of this right, to interfere with RB exercise, is a fiagn usurpation of power which can find warrant in tho Constitution; and, if sai tinned by tho pooplo, will subvert our fo of Government, and can only end i: singlo centralized and consolidated ( vommont, in which the separate existei of the States will bo entirely absorbed, s an unqualified despotism bo ostablisl in placo of a Federal Uniou of co-eq States; and that wo regard Hie reconstr tion Acts (so-called) of Congress aa st are usurpations, and tfnefonstiiutional; volutionary, and void; that our soldi and sailors, who carried tho flag of ? country to victory against a most gall and determined foe, must ever be gr. folly remembered, and all tbe guarantees given in their favor must be faithfully car? ried into oxecotion. That tho public lands should he distri? buted as widely ns possible among tho people, and should be disposed of either under tho pre-emption of homestead lands, and sold in reasonable quantities, and to nono bot actual occupants, at tho mini? mum prico established by tho Government. When grants of tho public lands may bo allowed, necessary for tho encouragement of important public improvements, tbe proceeds of thc Balo of such lands, and not ibo lauds themselves, should bo BO ap? plied.
