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!

A Great Spring and Summer
INV1GOUATOU AM) KKSTOnER.
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.

THE PLATFORM .
OF THF.
Democratic National Convention.
Tho D?mocratie party, in National Con?
vention assembled, reposing its trust in
the intelligence, patriotism and discrimi?
nating justico of tho people-standing
upon the Constitution as thc foundation
and limitation of the powers of the Go?
vernment, and tho guarantee of tho liber?
ties of tho citizen, and recognizing the
questions of slavery and secession ns
having been settled, for all time to come,
by the war, or tho voluntary action of the
Southern States, in Constitutional Con?
ventions assembled, and nevor to be re?
newed or re-agitated, do, with thc return
of peace, demand:
1st. 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.
Hth. Equal rights and protection foi
naturalized and native-boin citizens, al
home and abroad; the assertion of Ameri
can nationality which shall command tin
respect of foreign poners, and furnish ai
example and encouragement to peoph
struggling for national integrity, consti
tutional liberty and individual rights; am
tho maintenance of tho rights ol natural
ized citizens against tho absoluto doctrim
of immutable allegiauce and the claims o
foreign powers to punish them for all?g?e
crime committed beyond their jurisdic
tion.
lu demanding theso measures and rc
forms, we arraign the radical party for iti
disregard of right, and tho unparallele?
oppression and tyranny which have mark
eu its career. 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.
That tho President of tho United States,
Andrew Johnson, in exercising tho power
of his high oflico in resisting tho aggres?
sions of Congresa upon tho constitu? ion al
rights of tho States and tho peoplo, ia en?
titled to tho gratitude of tho whole Anicri
can people, and in behalf of the Democra?
tic party, wc tender him our thanks for his
patriotic efforts in that regard.
Upon this platform, the Democratic
party appeal to every patriot, including all
tho conservative element and all who de?
sire tu support tho Constitution and re?
store tho Union, forgetting all past differ?
ences of opinion, to unite with us in the
present great strugglo for tho liberties of
the people; and that to all euch, to what?
ever party they maj* have heretofore be?
longed, we extend tho right hand of fel?
lowship, and bail all euch co-operating
with us as friends and brethren.
