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.

The Democratic party, in National Con?
vention assembled, reposing its trust in
the intelligence, patriotism and discrimi?
nating justice of tho people-standing
upon the Constitution as the foundation
and limitation of tho powers of tbe Go?
vernment, and the guarantee of tho liber?
ties of the citizen, and recognizing the
questions of slavery and secession as
having been bet tied, for all time to como,
hy the war, or tho voluntary action of tho
Southern ?State?, in Constitutional Con?
ventions assembled, and novor to be re?
newed or re-agitated, do, with tho return
of peace, demand:
1st. Immediate restoration of all the
States to their rights in tho Union, under
tho Constitution, and of civil government
to tho American people.
2d. Amnesty for all paBt political
offences, and the regulation of tho elective
franchise in tho States by their citizens.
3d. rayment of tho public debt of tho
United States as rapidly a? practicable;
all moneys drawn from the people by tax?
ation, except so much as ib requisito for
tho necesKitios of tho Government, econo?
mically administered, being honestly ap?
plied to such payment; and, whore the
obligations of thc Government do not
expressly state upon their face, or tho
law under which they were isBUOd does
not provide that they shall be paid in
coin, they ought, in right and in justice,
bi: paid in the lawful money of the United
Slates.
4th. Equal taxation of every species Of
property, according to its real value, in?
cluding Government bonds and other pub?
lic securities.
5th. Ono currency for tho Government

Cth. Economy in thc administration of

thc Ereedmou's Bureau, and all political
instrumentalities designed to secure
negro supremacy; simplification of tho
svsteni and discontinuance of inquisitori?
al modes of assessing and collecting inter?
nal revenue, so that the burden of taxa?
tion may bo equalized and lessened, the
credit of thc Government and tho curren?
cy made good; the repeal of all enact?
ment*, tor enrolling the State militia into
national forces in time of peace; and n
tariff for revenue upon foreign imports,
and such equal taxation, under tho inter?

promote and encourage thc great indus?
trial interests of thc country.
7th. Reform of abuses in the administra?

tho restoration of rightful authority to

usurpations of Congress and the despot?
ism of the sword may cease.
8th. Equal rights and protection foi
naturalized and nativc-boin citizens, al
homo aud abroad; tho assertion of Ameri
can nationality which shall command thc
respect of foreign powers, and furnish ai
example and encouragement to people
struggling for national integrity, consti
tntnmal liberty and individual rights; anc
the maintenance of tho rights ot natural
ized citizens against tho absolute doctrim
of immutable allegianco and tho claims o
foreign powers to punish them for alloget
crimo committed beyond their jurisdic
finn.
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.
