Casablanca, thc Second. The boy Bat ou the pony's back, As round the ring he Hod Tko duat that fl9w up round the track Fell thick upon his head. Yet, beautiful and firm he stuck, AR bora to ride wild ponies A creature of uncommon pluck, "A brick** among his cronies. The mule ran on-he'd not let go, Without his father's word His father faintly crying, "whoa," Was smothered in the crowd. The pony fast and faster flow, With Jocko running after, Bravees from the ero rvd they drew. Convulsing all with laughter. Jocko leaped with splendor wild, Carrying his tail on high, And sat behind the gallant child, With mischief in his eye. Tbore came a burst of loud applause The boy-O I was he there ? Ask of Jocko, who, with his paws, Was combing Hiram's hair. WHOSE WIFE WAS SHE! In 17-, at Toulouse, there existed between a Monsieur de Garran and the family of Monsieur de la Faille so great nn intimacy, that the worthy gossips of the city predicted that a marriage must inevitably result there? from. Nor was tho rumor so ill founded as such things sometimes are. Monsieur de Garran, a captain of artillery in a regiment then sta? tioned at Toulouse, was a young and handsome man, as much distinguish? ed for his bravery in the field OE for his proficiency in those accomplish? ments which make tho charm of social intercourse. Talented and brilliant in conversation, his society was .sought by all the best families of Toulouse and its neighborhood; and that fact alono was a certificate of his unblemished descent, for in Tou? louse, especially nt that time, four generations of noble ancestors were not considered sufficient to entitlo n man to rank himself amongst the old nobility. Monsieur do la Faillie was one of the principal magistrates of Toulouse. Timid and cautious by temperament nud habit, he was, like most persons of similar character, immovable as a rock when he had once formed a resolution; and his birth, wealth and social position made him as much respected as his gentle ingratiating manners caused him to be loved. Ha was a widower with one child, a daughter called Clemence, the beauty of the city. Mademoiselle de la Faille had so perfect a figure, that that alone, even if united with a very moderate amount of beauty of facer must have made good her title to be called a beautiful woman; but Cle? mence had a face which left no charm of expression, feature, or complexion to be desired. It was but natural that she and Monsieur de Garran, both young, handsome and agreeable, and both free in heart and fancy, being constantly th own together, should first bo attracted towards each other, and after a time find that their mutual attraction had mergad into a deeper feeling; it was so, and everything seemed for once favorable-birth, fortune, position and age, for French girls are married young, and Clemence was fifteen, while George de Garran was twenty five. George was as welcome to the father as the daughter, and assumed all the rights of an accepted suitor. All his leisure hours were spent with Monsieur de la Faille and his daughter; he was always their escort in public, where the beanty of the young pair attracted universal admi? ration, and the marriage was looked forward to by the citizens as a sort of public festival, of which all augured all manner of good. George had a widowed mother residing in Paris, and the only thing wanting to com? plete his happiness, was the fact that sho was still unacquainted with his attachment. He had not the small? est doubt of her consent, for he was her only child, and his happiness was her first object; but Monsieur de la Faille placed great stress on the importance of her formal approbn bation of the union, and George, having first deferred communicating the affair to her until he should be quite certain of his success with Clemence and her father, had after? wards chosen to delay acquainting her with it until he could procure leave of absence, and tell his story in person. This leave was at length obtained, and the happy lover, sure of his future, took leavo of his be? trothed and her father one evening, with the understanding that he was to leave Toulouse early next morn? ing, and not to return until he brought either the fullest tokens of his'iuother's approval, or bo accom? panied by herself, if health should permit her to undertake the journey. Full of joy and hope, Georgo return? ed to his hotel, and there wan mot by an urgent and peremptory order to proceed without the delay of an unnecessary hour with his regiment to India. Great was tho surprise of Clemence and her father to see George re-ap? pear next morning; tho girl read evil tidings in his face before he had time to utter a word, and when he had spokon, the news fell like a thunder-bolt on tho hearts of his hear? ers. Clemence was like one distract? ed, Georgo was himself too wretched to make any attempt at consoling her, and Monsieur de la Faille sat in a state of stupor looking on at the misery of his ohild and her lover, and almost OB unhappy as they. Some time passed thus, but George, who ku ow that every moment waa Srecioua, was tbe first to regain some egree of self-possession, and pleaded his cause with all tho eloquence of a' full heart. He urged piteously for an imrnndint.n marriage, and iliac his wife should go with him, if she would consent to such a sacrifice for his sake; but Monsieur de la Faille, who had by this time recovered the use of his faoulties, gently but firmly si? lenced Clemence's passionate assent to this appeal, and would not for a moment listen to a proposal whioh wonld separate him so suddenly from his only child, and send her, so young and unexperienced, thou? sands of leagues from her nntive land, to a climate which was then be? lieved to be nothing less than fatal, and exposed to tho probability of either being left a widow without safety or protector, or of herself dying so far from her father and her friends. He would not hear George's agonized entreaties, ami tho young man was nt last compelled to seo that this hope, at least, would never bo realized; but as his despair was fertile in expedients, his next preposition wns that be should at once resign his commission, and leave the army. On this point the magistrate was quite as decided as he had been on the first. He argued that it wns only tho temporary madness of a young lover in tho first anguish of disappointed hope-he would not sanction any such step; aud, to guarantee himself against seeming to do so, he declared that if George voluntarily forfeited his cireer, he must also forfeit Clomeuce; he (Mon? sieur de la Faille) would never con? sent to incur such a responsibility in the eyes of George's family, and he was sure that iu the time to come, George himself would be tho ilrst to repent haviug yielded to such an impulse. As a last hold on her whom ho so dearly loved, George's next idea was that ho should marry Clemence, but that she should re? main with her father until her hus? band's return, which was expected to take jil ace in two years at tho ut? most. But hero also Monsieur de la Faille was inflexible; he had in ado up his mind to a course which he behoved to be right, and no prnyers, no arguments, could move him. He represented to tho lovers that, being both so young, two years were as nothing in their lives; and, moreover, this interval of absence would provo whether their love for each other were a deep, life-long sentiment, or one of those ephemeral fancies which end in indifference and even dislike. In short, ho labored to convince both himself and the lovers that this separation was of all things the ono he most desired. George saw that his last hope had failed like the others, and at length ceased bis endeavors to overcome Monsienr do la Faille's manifold objections. As for Clemence, she saw she could do nothing but suffer and submit, and she tried to believe that those miserable two years would make her faithful love so much the more dear and precious to her lover. Monsieur de la Faille was no doubt quite justified in making and ad? hering to his resolution, but he was, after all, a stupid man, and had doubtless forgotten his own youth; for it never entered into his imagina? tion than those two unhappy beings must have a thousand last words to say to eaoh other, which must re? main unsaid if ho remained there and refused thom one lost parting interview, where, alone with each other, they might ask and receive the last vows which would bo so much to them in tho weary days of waiting and absence. The worthy man had not the least suspicion that he could be in the way, and sat on, miserable indeed at the misery be beheld, but never dreaming of leaving them alone together. George remaiued seated near Cle? mence, choking with words which he could not say to any ear but hers, and gazing at her as those look who feel that every look may be tho last. The minutes passed too quickly; he knew he must go, and he rose sud? denly. In that instant, he forgot the respect duo to the tyrannical laws of good society in France; he only felt that ho was leaving Cle? mence, and that he could not go without seeing her ulouo. As bc bout to say "adieu" to ber, he whis pered words which wore at once ii prayer and a command. "Meet me at miduigbt, in tho gar? den," ho said. She looked at him, startled and reluctant, but that look was enough she saw how ho suffered, aud in a voic< a? low as bis: "I will bo there," sh< answered. If M. do la Faille bad had a grail of penetration, he must have divined from tho unhoped-for .tranquility o their parting, that they meant to moe again. He had tho intellect of tin head and not of the heart, however and he suspected nothing. Night came, and tho lovers mot a tho appointed time and place. Clu menee came, half terrified at si unusual a step, yet proud to be abl to provo to George how dearly sh loved him, by this one defiance of al the laws which rule the lives o French girls of her station; and ii 17- those laws had still more signifl canoe than they now have. Bu George bad had time to reflect. H felt as though he should go mad, dh anything oconr to prevent the meet? ing; but at the same time he trem? bled at having tempted his innocent lovo to this aet; for he knew well that Clemence would be ruined for his sake in the opinion of the world, did any bird of the air betray tim secret of uer assignation with thim. In silence they met, and, hand clasped in hand, they for some time forgot in the joy of being together that they wore about to part. It was a glorious night, a bright moon was high in the heavens, and there was no sound but the faint rustle of the wind in tho long wreaths of honey? suckle, which hung from the topmost boughs of the old tree beneath which they sat. It is needless to recapitulate thoir sorrowful parting words. A thou? sand times they swore to be faithful forever through all the chances and changes of life; they arranged to think of each other, and pray togo ther in spirit at certain hours of the night and day, forgetting, poor souls! that the day of one country would be the night of the other. The moment of parting carno, und for the first time George pressed his hps to those of his betrothed. "Oh, George!" she said, "if I were dead, your kisses would restore me to lifo." And with these singular words, destined to bo afterwards re? membered, they separated. Four years had passed from that sorrowful night, when George, who hud just landed at Brest, at once took tho road to Paris, and arrived at his mother's house there on the 5th of June, 17-. He had taken caro to have her forewarned of his arrival by somo frieuds, for she had long mourned liim as dead. Im? mediately eu his arrival in India, he had been engaged in action, where he hud beeu left for dead on the field of battle, and his name had been returned amongst tho killed; but in point of fact he had been only senseless from loss of blood, and having been made prisoner, had re? mained in captivity, without the possibility of letting his friends know his condition, and of course being equally debarred from all homo news, till au unforeseen chauco had enabled him to escape.

In demanding theso measures and re forms, we arraign the radical party for iti disregard of right, and tho unparallolc? oppression and tyranny which Lave mark eu its career. After tho moBt Boleniu am unanimous pledge of both Douses of Con gr?es to proaecuto tho war exclusively fo tho maintenance of the Government an? the preservation of tho Union, under th Constitution, it has repeatedly violate) that most sacred pledge, under whicl alone was rallied that noblo voluntce army, which carried our Hag to victory. Instead of restoring tho Union, it han so far as is in its power, dissolved it, an subjected ten States, in times of profoum peaco, to military despotism and negr supremacy. It has nullified there the right of trie by jury; it has abolished the habeas coi vus, that most sacred writ of liberty; i has overthrown the freedom of speech an tho presa; it has substituted arbitrar seizures and arrests, and military trial and secret star-chamber inquisitions fe tho constitutional tribunals; it has dian garded, in timo of peace, tho right of th people to be free from searches and sei: ure?; it has entered the post and telcgrap offices, and oven the private rooms of it dividuals, and seized their private papoi and letters, without any specific charge < notice of affidavit, as required by the o ganic law; it bas converted tho America capitol into a bastile; it has established system of spies and official espionage i which no constitutional monarchy of Ki rope would now dare to resort- it has ab lished ino right of appeal on importai constitutional questions to tho supren judicial tribunals, and threatens to cu tail or destroy its original jurisdictio which is irrevocably vested by tho Const tution, while the loamed Chiot Justi has boen subjected to tho most atrocioi calumnies, morely becauso ho would n prostitute his high office to tho support tho false and partizan charges prctcrn against tho President. Its corruption ai extravagance have exceeded anythh known in history, and by its frauds ai monopolies it has nearly doubled tho bi; den of the debt created" by the war. It h stripped thc President of hisconstitutio al power of appointment even of his oi Cabinet. Under its repeated assaults, t pillars of the Government aro rocking their base, and should it succeed in N venihor next, and inaugurate its Prcsidoi wo will meet, as a subjected and conquer people, amid tho ruins of liberty und t scattered fragments of tho Constitute and wo do declare and resolve that, e\ since tho peoplo of tho United Stal threw off all subjection to tho Rriti crown, tho privilege and trust of suffra havo belonged to tho several States, a have been granted, regulated und ct trolled oxclusivoly by the political pow of eoch Stato respectively, and that a attempt by Congress, on any pretext wh ever, to deprive any State of this right, to interfere with its exeroiso, is a ilagri usurpation of power which can find warrant in the Constitution; and, if BS: tinned by tho people, will subvert our fo of Government, and can only end i single centralized and consolidated < vernment, in which tho separate exist? i of the States will be entirelv absorbed, t I an unqualified despotism "be establlsl in place of a Federal Uuion of co-eq statis; and that wo regard the reconstr tlon Acts (an-calledj of Congres* as si are usurpations, and unconstitutional, volutionary, and void; that our soldi and sailors, who carried the flag of country to victory against a moat gallant and determined foe, munt ever bo grate? fully remembered, and all tho guarantees given in their favor must be faithfully car? ried into execution. That the public lands should bo distri? buted RB widely as poBsiblo among the people, and should bo disposed of either under the pre-emption of homestead lands, and sold in reasonable quantities, and to none but actnal occupants, at the mini? mum prico ostablishod by the Government. When grants of the public lands may be allowed, necossary for the encouragement of important public improvements, the proceeds of the sale of such lands, and not the lands themselves, should bo so ap? plied. That tho President of thc United States, Andrew Johnson, in exercising thc power of his high ?frico iu resisting the aggres? sions of Congress npon tho constitutional rights of the states and tho people, is en? titled to tho gratitude of tho whole Anu ri can people, and in behalf of tho Democra? tic party, wo tender bim our thanks for his patriotic efforts in that regard. Upon this platform, tho Domocratic party appeal to every patriot, including all thc conservativo clement and all who de? sire to support tho Constitution and re? store the Union, forgetting all past differ? ences of opinion, to unite- with us 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, wo extend the right hand of fel? lowship, and hail all such co-operating with us as friends and brethren.
