. >Con?ld?r Ut? X.UIM cf iU? Vitia." .* BY W. M. EIXI8. B. A. O Trearyiohild of toil and oami-~m~ Trembling Kt every cloud ww lowers, Come and behold bow passing ?ir Thy God hath m ado tho flowers. From every hill-aide's sunny alppo, From every forest's leafy ahado. The flowers, sweet mensongers of hope, Bid thee "ho not afraid." The wind flower blooms in yonder bo??r, All beedie?? of to-morrow's storm; Nor trembleo for the coming shower The lilly'? stately form. No busy shuttle plied to deck With. Bun-sot. tints'tko bluahing rose; And little does the bareboll reek Of toil and all ita woes. The water Ully, puro and white, Floats idly on tho summer ni i cam Seeming almost too fair and bright For aught but poet's dream. The gorgeous tulip, though arrayed In gold and gems, knows naught of care; The violet in tho mossy glade, Of labor Hath no share. They toil not-yet tho lilly di?s Phrenioian fabrics far aurpass; Nor India's rareat gem outvies The little blue-eyed grass. For God's own hand hath clothed tho flowers With fairy form and rainbow hue; Hath nurtured them with Bummer showena, And watered them with dow. To-day, a, thousand blossoms fair, From sunny elope or eholtorod glade, With grateful incense fill the air To-m?rrow they shall fade. But thou shalt livo when sinks, jn night Yon,glorious aun; and shall not Ho Who hath tho flowers BO richly dight, Much rather care for thee? O faithless murmurer! thou mayest read A lesson in the lowly sod; Heaven will supply thmo every need; Fear not, but trust in God. A lateral Tarn of Mind. The Galaxy, for September, says: The Irish boll is the result of a fog in the mind-there is another humor? ous method of oppression, which is JJie result of too much literalness and acuteness of mind. Human thought and language have come, of course, from much nse, to run in grooves or rons, but there are occasionally people who persistently refuse to be influenced by anything that has been done before them, and who are, consequently, all the time saying grotesque and unexpected things. Of stich a character was a particu? larly practical student, who, at the examination of the College of Sur? geons, was asked, by Abernethy : .'What would you do if a man was blown up with gunpowder?" He re Shed, "I would wait till he oame own." "True," replied Abernethy, "and suppose I should kick you foi such an impertinent answer, what *r muscles would I put in motion?" "The flexors and extensors of my arm," replied the student, "for 1 should immediately knock you down." "My son," said an anxious fathei once, "what makes yon use that nasty tobacco?" Now the son was a very literal sort of person, and declining to consider the question in the spirit in whioh it was asked, replied, "Tc get the juice, old codger." A. lady was once conversing with ? sailor who had suffered shipwreck and, as she took great pleasure in tnt F.nfdyzation of feelings and emotions, asked him, compassionately, "Hov did you feel, my dear man, when tin cold waves broke over you?" Bu the seaman knew nothing of meta physios, and answered simply, "Wet ma'am; very wet." A small child being asked by i Sunday School teacher, "What dit the Isra?lites do after they hat crossed the Bed Sea?" answered, "'. don't know, ma'am, bnt I guess the; dried themselves." Queer answers are very often re ceived by grown people who talk ti children, for the reason that the latte have not yet become accustomed ti -the - subtleties, and figurative mean ings and ronndabont ways of words and, therefore, look at things ver practically. "Sam," said a youn? mother to her darling boy, "do yo know what the difference is betweei the body and the soul? The soul my child, is what you love with; th body carries you about. This i your body, (touching th? boy' shoulders and arms,) but there i something deeper in. Yon can fee it now. What is it?" Oh, I know, said he, with a flash of intelligenc in his eye, "that is my flannel shirt. "A passive verb," said a teaohei "is expressive of the nature of r< ceiving an action, as 'Peter was bea en.' i?ow, what did Peter do? "Well, I don't.know," said the schi lar, deliberating, "unless be ho 1er ed." A youth who was being r?primant ed for playing marbles on Sunda; was asked, "Do you know whei those little boys go who play marbi? on Sunday?" He had not been sn fioiently taught in regard to a f utn: state, and replied, quite innocent!; "Oh, yes. Some on 'em goes to tl common, and some od 'em goes dov to tho river." An unexpected bit of informatk is sometimes elicited by this liter understanding of questions, as wh< a Sabbath Behool teacher was s tempting to teach a very email b< the meaning Of wages in the passag "Tho wages of sin is death," ai asked him, "What does your fath get on Saturday night?" "Brun ma'am," answered tho boy, witho any hesitation. So a lecturer in Portland, Mai or somewhere else, -was explaining to a little girl how a lobster cast his shell when he hacVoatgrown it. Said he, "What do you do when you bavj outgrown your clothes? Yon. them aside, do you not?" "O no," replied tho little one, "we le1 out the tucks." Again, a teacher was explaining to a little girl the meaning of the cuticle. "What ia that all over my face and hands?" said he. *'Its freckles, sir," answered the little cherub. This same literal turn of mind which I have been illustrating, is sometimes used intentionally, and perhaps a little maliciously, and thus becomes tho property of wits instead of blunderers .Thus wo hear of a very polite and impressive gentleman who said to a youth in the street: "Boy, moy I inquire where Robin? son's drng atore is?" "Certainly, sir," said the boy, very respectfully. "Well, sir," said the gentleman, after waiting awhile, "Where is it?" "I have not the least idea, your honor," said the urchin. There was another boy who was accosted by an ascetic, middle-aged lady, with, "Boy, I want to go to Dover street." "Well, ma'am," said the boy, "why don't you go there, then?" Sometimes this sort of wit degene-. rates or rises, as the case may bo, into punning, as when Flora pointed pen? sively to the heavy masses fof clouds in the sky, saying, "I wonder where thoso clouds aro going;", and her] brother replied, ' "? think they are going to thunder." Also, na in the following dialogue: ,vHello, " there!J how do you sell wood?" "By the! cord." "How long has it been cut?" "Four feet." "I mean how long has it been since you cut it?" "Iso longer than it is now." And also when Patrick O'Flynn was seen with his collar and bosom sadly begrimed, and was indignantly asked by his officer, "Patrick O'Flynn, how long I do you wear a shirt?" and replied promptly, "twenty-eight inchos, sir." Kentucky friends of John G. Breckinridge say he is anxious to be pardoned, como home and return to the practice of law in Kentucky. Ho will soon leavo Europe for Canada, where ho will remain until he gets permission, in the form of a pardon, to go to Kentucky. DEMOCRATIC NOMINATIONS. MUNICIPAL OFFICERS-CITY COLUMBIA. For Mayor.

Reform of abuses in tho administra? tion, tho expulsion of corrupt men from office, the abrogation of useless offices, the restoration of rightful authority to and the independence of the executive and judiciary departments of tho Govern? ment, the subordination of the military to tho civil power, to tho end that tho usurpations of Congress and thc despot? ism of the sword may cease. 8th. Equal rightB and protection for naturalized and native-bom citizens, at home and abroad; tho assertion of Ameri? can nationality which shall command the respect of foreign powers, and furnish an example and encouragement to people struggling for national integrity, consti? tutional liberty and individual rightB; and the maintenance of tho rights ot natural? ized citizens against tho absolute doctrino of immutable allegiance and the claims of foreign powers to punish them for alleged crime committed beyond their jurisdic? tion. In demanding these measures and re? forms, we arraign the radical party for its disregard of right, and the unparalleled oppression and tyranny which have mark? ed its career. After the most solemn < nd unanimous pledge of both Houses of Con? gress to prosecute the war exclusively for the maintenance of tho Government and the preservation of the Union, under tho Constitution, it has repeatedly violated that most sacred pledge, under which alone was rallied that noble voluntoer army, which carried our flag to victory. Instead of restoring the Union, it has, so far as is in its power, dissolved it, and subjected ton States, in times of profound peace, to military despotism and negro supremacy. It has nullified there tho right of trial by jury; it has abolished tho habeas cor {?us, that most sacred writ of liberty; it ias overthrown tho freedom of spoech and tho press; it has substituted arbitrary seizures and arrests, and military trials and secret star-chamber inquisitions for tho constitutional tribunals; it has disre? garded, in time of peace, tho right of the people to be free from searches and seiz? ure*; it has entered tho post and telegraph offices, and even the private roomB of in? dividuals, and aeizflil their priva?? pspers and letters, without any specific charge or notico of affidavit, as required by tho or? ganic law; it has converted tho Amerioan capitol into a bastilo; it has established a system of spies and official espionage to which no constitutional monarchy of Eu? rope would now daro to resort; it has abo? lished the right of appeal on important constitutional questions to tho supremo judicial tribunals, and threatens to cur? tail or destroy its original jurisdiction, which is irrevocably vested bv tho Consti? tution, while the learned Chief Justice has boen subjected to the most atrocious calumnies, morely because ho would not prostitute his high office to tho support of the false and partizan charges preferred against tho President. Its corruption and extravagance bavo exceeded anything known In history, and by its frauds and monopolios it has nearly doubled the bur? den of the debt created by tho war. It has stripped the President of his constitution? al power of appointment even of his own Cabinet. Under its repeated assaults, the pillars of tho Government aro rocking on their baae, and should it succeed in No? vember next, and inaugurate its President, we will meet, as a subjected and conquered people, amid the ruins of liberty and the scattered fragments of tho Constitution; and we do declare and resolve that, ever since the people of the United Htatos threw off all aubjeotion to the Britiah crown, the privilege and trust of suffrago have belonged to tho several States, and have bein granted, regulated and con? trolled exclusively by tho political power of each Stato respectively, and that any attempt by Congress, ofi any protext what? ever, to deprive any State of this right, or to interfere with its exorcise, is a flagrant usurpation of power whioh oan And no warrant in tho Constitution; and, if sanc? tioned by tho people, will subvert our form of Government, and, oan only end in a single centralized and consolidated Go? vernment, in whl?h the separate existence of the States will bo entirely absorbed, and an unqualified despotism no established in plaoe of a Federal Union of co-equal States; and that we regard the reconstruo Acts (so-called) of CongrcsB ae such ? urpat?ons, and unconstitutional, re? tionary, and void; that oar soldiers sailors, who carried the flag of oar | country to victory against a most gallant and determined foo, mast over be-grate lully remembered, and nil the guarantees given in their favor must ba faithfully car? ried into execution. That the public lands should be distri? buted aa widely aa ppasibie among tho people, and should bo disposed of either udder tho pre-emption of homestead lands, ! and sold in reaBouablo quantities, and to ; none bat actual occupante, at - the mini? mum price established by the Government. When grants of the public landa may be I allowed, necessary for tho encouragement of important public improvements, the I proceeds of the salo of such lands, and not tba land? themselves, should bo BO an pliod. T Ti>at the President of lue united .States, Andrew Johnson, i? exercising tho power of his higli office m resisting the aggrea siotiB of Congress upon the constitutional' rights of tho ?States and tho people, is en? titled io the gratitude of tho wholo Ameri can pcoplo, and in behalf of tho Democra? tic party, wo tender him our tb mit s for his patriotic efforts in that regard. Upon this platform, the Democratic party appeal to every patriot, including all. tho conservative clement and all who de? sire to support tho Constitution and re? store the Lnion, forgetting all pa?t difler ences of opinion, to unite with us in the present great struggle for tho liberties of tho people; and that to all huch. to what over party they may have heretoforo be? longed, we extend tho right hand of fel? lowship, and hail all euch co-operating with us as frionds and brethren.
