And his aim is at random, I trow. It is olear he's a queer little dear, and I hear That his arrows are BWift in their night; Have a care, ?nd beware how you dare anywhere , , - ? Meet the youngster by day or by night. Now he brings 'neath his wings silken strings, pretty things, And he calls them bis true lover's knot, Which he tries to disgniso as he ties up his eyes Then he's blind as a bat, every jot; But I find, though he's blind, ho's inclined oft to bind Maidens' hearts with his gay "cords of love;" So beware, have a care, how you faro when you dare To commune with this boy as you rove. With a glance of romance he'll advanoe and enhance All tho virtues that he may possess; On his knees he will please; 'by degrees be will tease, Then he'll flatter and Boothe and caress. So again, to be plain, if you deign to re? tain In your service t his cherub, I y Have a care, and beware, or he'll daro e'en to boar You iu triumph to Hymen one day. ' WILLIE'S WIFE. CONCLUDED. He put her down gently, still hold? ing her hand. She stood quite still and passive, as if frozen, the two fixed, bright eyes staring from her death-white face. The man looked from one to the other in a frightened way. "Do you think I've frightened her out of her wits?" he asked, in an uneasy whisper, as she stood with her eyes riveted on his face. "I dare say you have," I blurted out, curtly, as I turned to Mrs. Robinson. "Mary, my dear, what is it?" taking her passive hands in mine. She made no motion, not oven shifting her eyes. "Won't you speak to me, Mary?" The eyes turned on me, and slipping her hands from mine, she groped in the air like a blind person. It was terri? ble to see. "Mary," I said, despe? rately, "it is your husband come back to you"-anything, I thought, to rouse her-"won't you speak to him!;* "Yes," said Mr. Robinson, eager? ly, "I am your husband; don't you know me, Mary? Ain't you glad to see me, my dear?" The tsars stood in his eyes, and although they could not soften the look of the scarred one, still I could see a dim-a very dim-likeness to the picture over the mantel-piece, and could no longer 'doubt his identity. Deep lines seem? ed to grow in the little woman's face as he spoke to her; the very round? ness appeared to fall into sharp angles, such as long years of sorrow had failed to produce. "Send him away; tell the man to go away. Cannot he go away?" she said, piteously. "No, my dear," said her husband, "I have como to stay, and I thought you'd bo glad to see me." His rough voice trembled a little. ' 'See, I've carried your picture with me through thick and thin. When wo was shipwrecked, I thought about it, and tied it np water proof, so that I should have that any way; and all them long years, when Tom Bright and George Griffith and me nsed to sit in our huts o' night, and talk over our wives and homes, your picture used to look so hopeful-like-just like you used to look them first two months I almost forgot I was a shipwrecked sailor, thousands of miles away. Oh, Mary, the long days and tho dreary nights, and the weeks, and thc months, and the years, all stretching out, one after the other 1 Yes, child, it was awful dreary-like, and your picture got dim and blurred, and I grew old and gray afore my time; and George, poor fellow, he died ol a queer kind of a fever, and we ? buried him decent as we could, undei the big palm just above the hut. Then Tom and 1 led a rough kind ol life; we got savage-like, and didn'l -seem to care much about anything." There he paused and looked al Mary, sitting motionless. "I thought sometimes, if I ever did get baok, il would be kind o' hard for you to gel uso to me and my ways, and I'd fee! awkward with decent folks. It wai nicrh on to twenty yenT. I think before wo was found; but I though may be you'd be kind o' glad to sei me, any way." And the poor fellov broke down, and looked wistfully a his wife. But the little woman's mind seeraei quito gone. She did not answer bin a word, and had again fallen int that fixed, unnatural stare. I though I might rouse her by calling he thoughts back to daily things "Mary, dear," I said, Mr. Robinsoi must bo hungry after his journey won't you get him some supper?" She left the roora without a word moving mechanically, like ono in dream.^ Half an hour passed, dui ing which Robinson had given mo sketch of his shipwreck. It was th old story-the same, with variationi that De Foe and Tennyson an Adelaide Procter had told. Ho an his two companions had been waahe on an island, rich in beautiful veg< tation, but infinitely dreary in i solitude through the long, long yea; of watching to which the castaway were doomed. He told me how hoj had almost died oat, when one mon mg, nt Btnrise, they saw a ship steer? ing for the island, signaled her, and were taken on hoard. She was the Zephyr, bound for New York; and in a little more than two months she brought them home. When .., Kobi u s on had .finished his story, I went out out to see what had beooma of his wife. She wa? in the pantry, standing before Willie's cup, and the blessed tears were streaming down her face. As soon aa she saw me she fell on my neck, sobbing con? vulsively: "Must I give him Willie's cup? No lips have touched it since he went away. How can I give it to that man?" I let her cry until she was exhausted; then I raised her gently and carried her to bed. '.Lie there fifteen minutes, dear; by that timo I shall havo supper ready." She obeyed as a little child might. When I wont to her, she was white and still, and her lids closed. Alarm? ed, I called her hastily by name, and she raised her eyes to mine. There was still the samed fixed glit? ter in them. I lifted her from the bed, and arranged her dress; sbo was quite passive under my hands. It was a dreary supper, and a moro dreary evening. But at last it carno to an end. I lay half the night turning rest? lessly on my lounge. The moonlight poured across the room iu a broad stream. Willie's picturo looked down npon me with an unearthly expression; Willie's arm-chair took weird forms in tho dim light. I thought over tho rapid succession of events, until my head grew dizzy with thinking. Then the reproach? ful eyes of the young Willie seemed staring at mo from the dark corners of the room; and mingled with his youthful traits came the rough fea? tures and sinister eye of the adult Bobi?8on. Through this chaos of faces Mary's came up, just ns I had seen her when she stood at tho door of her room, bidding mo good-night, ber eyes largo with terror, and her hands stretched out to mo for help for help, nias! which bow could I give her? For was ho not her hus? band? And is it not to her husband that a woman must cleave? Suddenly my heart stood still. Tho little womas herself crept noise? lessly from the bed-room, her face looking horribly wan iu tho moon? light-crossed the parlor and knelt in the accustomed spot. Her hands were raised above her head; ber up? turned face was convulsed with au agony of appeal; but, for a time, no words came from her lips. She sank prostrato on tho floor. "Oh, my God!" at last sho moaned: "Wil? lie has gono from Heaven! I have lost bimi Ob, whero is he?" Then she glided back as silently as she bad come, but tho bitter moan'sounded in my ears tho long night through. Tho next morning, sho woro tho same stony face. I stayed with her threo weeks, and thou returned to my own homo, which had, mean? while, been thoroughly renovated. I couid sit in peace before my fire plnco now, without fear of storms or risks of draughts. I could sit in peace outwardly, but my mind had little rest. At intervals of two or threo days I went to seo tho little woman. Month by month her face grew smaller and her eyes larger and brighter. Their glitter haunted mo. Moro than a year passed. One cheerful morning iu early spring, ] was ironing in my kitchen ; a pleasant breeze carno through the window: tho blithe birds without made thc orchard vocal with their lively twit? terings and a bed of strawberries ir. tho garden delighted my eyes wit! its white blossoms. Lifo seemec" pleasant to mo this bright morning and my hands moved briskly at mj work. A shadow fell across tin ironing-board, and caused me to loo! up. There was Mr. Bobinson stand ing in tho door-way. The weather beaten face had changed much in th< year-an unhappy year it had beoi to him-but its events had stirret tho gentler parts of his nature. Hi looked even sadder thau usual tili morning, and bis voice was low nu< subdued. "Miss Jemima, my Mary seem lower than common ; she's clean ou and gone to bed. My rough baud and ways ain't no account in a sic] room; -wouldn't you just step ove and seo if you could help her any I wouldn't ask it if I could get alon without you." "Instantly," I replied, putting o my bonnet. "I will lock up th house and go back with you." found Mrs. Robinson lying on he bed, tho room darkened. She loot ed up to mo and smiled-a swe^l dim smile-then, closing her oyoi she lay quito still. Hour after houi that I sat by her bedside, ehe neve , moved nor spoke. lu the evening I sont for the villago doctor-a quio meek little man-who shook h head, looked doubtful, and left son powders. And so she lay for fivo days nn four nights. Sometimes sho wi feverish, and would turn and mutte but usually she lay quite still, hi small thin hands folded, and tb; wonderful smile on her face. Tl evening of the fifth day, the roo was intensely still; Mr. Robinsc and I sat watching the calm fae white as tho pillow beneath it. Sn donly a light broke over her feature She flung her arms upward with murmur of joy: .'Willie, I am com? ing!"-sank buck, her breathing growing shorter and feebler-a gen? tle, scarce perceptible straggle, and the little woman was gone from her pain, from her longing, from her fond delusion-gone to a world of light and of peace, where all delusion? vanish-gens to a world where, ere long, there will bo an? other meeting; and then Willie will be recognized and welcomed by that faithful heart, and loved forever. Meanwhile, a bent old man still lives in the house over the way. He, too, is going fast. H?B hair is white -a softened light shines in his eyes; his mouth falls easily into u tender smile when you to speak to him of Mary, his wife, in Heaven. Perhaps -who can tell? she is watching him thence; her Willie, becoming gentler, more spiritualized, through his loving heart, his lonely life and the guardian influence exerted over him from an? other world than ours.

Immediate restoration of all tho States to their rights in the Union, un.1er tho Constitution, and of civil government to tho American people. 2d. Amnesty for all past political offences, and the regulation of the electivo fran cl line in tho States by their citizens. 3d. Payment of tho public debt of tho United States as rapidly as practicable; all moneys drawn from thc people by tax? ation, except so much as is requisito for tho necessities of the Government, econo? mically administered, being boncBtly ap? plied "to such payment; and, where tho obligations of the Government do not expressly state upon their face, or tho law under which they were issued docs not pr?vido that they shall bc paid in coin, they ought, in right and in justice, bo paid in the lawful moncv of the United States. 4th.

In demanding these measures and rc forms, we arraign the radical party for it disregard of right, and tho unparallele oppression und tyranny which have marl cu its career. After the moat aolemn au unanimous pledge of both Houses of Coi gross to prosecute the war exclusively f< tho maintenance of the Government an tho preservation of tho Union, under tl Constitution, it has repeatedly violate that moat sacred pledge, under whic alono waa rallied that noble volunte? army, which carried our flag to victory. Instead of restoring tho Union, it ha so far as is in its power, dissolved it, ar subjected ten States, in times of profout peace, to military despotism and neg] supremacy. It has nullified th ero the right of tri byjurv; it baa abolished tho habeat co ?ms, that moat sacred writ of liberty; baa overthrown tho freedom of speech ai tho preaa; it has substituted arbitra seizures and arrests, and military tria and secret star-chamber inquisitions f tho constitutional tribunals; it has disi garded, in time of peace, thc right of t people to be free from searches and Bei nres; it has entered tho post and telegraj offices, and even the private rooms of i dividualu, and seized their private pape and letters, without any specific charge notice of affidavit, aa required by the < ganic law; it baa converted tho Americ capitol into a baatile; it has established system of apios and official espionage which no constitutional monarchy of ? rope would now dare to resort; it has al lished thc right bf appeal on importa constitutional questions to tho supre judicial tribunals, and threatens to c tail or destroy its original jurisdictii which ia irrevocably vested by tho Cont tution, while the learned Chief Just has been subjected to tho most atrocit calumnies, merely because ho would I prostitute his high office to thc support tho fnlso and partizan chargea prefer against tho Preaident. Its corruption f extravagance havo exceeded anyth known in history, and by its frauds ? monopolies it baa nearly doubled tho b den of tho debt created by the war.

That the publie lande should bs distri? buted as widely as possible among the people, and should be disposed of either nn der the pre-emption of homestead lands, and sold in reasonable quantities, and to none but actual occupants, at the mini? mum price established by the Government. When grants of the public lands may bo allowed, necessary for the encouragement of important public improvements, the proceeds of tho sale of such lands, and not tho lands themselves, should bo so ap plied. That tho President of the United Slates, Andrew Johnson, in exercising tho power of his high office in resisting the aggres? sions of Congress upon the constitutional rightB of the States and the people, is en? titled to tho gratitude of the whole Ameri can people, and in behalf of tho Democra? tic party, wo tender him our thanks for bis 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 to support the Constitution and re storo the Union, forgetting all past differ? ences of opinion, to unite with us in the present great struggle for tho liberties or 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 ns as friends and brethren.
