BY MRS. ABDY. sought my youthful home again! The birds poured forth tuneful strain, The silver stream its waters flung Ger banks where blushing wild-fowers chung The lambs were sporting on the lea, Light waved the milk-white hawthorn tree; And yet viewed the scene with tears, Imourned the Friends of Early Years. left that spot blight and bloom, To seek the church-yard's sheltered gloom: They slept beneath the messy earth, Untold. unsung their simple worth; Yet, fondly, sadly, I avowed That none amid the dazzling crowd Had shared my hopes or soothed my fears Like these-the Friends of Early Years. That home wish not now to see; It boasts no charm, no joy for me; Yet time my feelings cannot chill, My faithful friends are near me still; lift them to my longing eyes, Whene'r view the peaceful skies; For there the blessed home appears, Where dwell the Friends of Early Years

Pat and Murphy took passage in the Lex ington at Providence for the city of New York. They could raise only $5 between them-just enough to pay the passage of one and how to pass the muster of the ticket gatherer was matter of study with them.--- |" An (says Pat) have it-I have it Murphy lave the matter to me-rll wax em''-and away he hurried to the ticket office. "A ticket, sir, if you plase!' "Aye aye :" re- joined the clerk in attendance, and handed over ticket to Pat, who was very loquacious and eccentric on the occasion, as matter for after consideration. Pat paid for the ticket and hurried away to his mate, saying, Here, Murphy, take this ticket, and when called upon give it up-leave me to myselEI'l take good care of Pat" In the course of the his ticket, and soon after the gatherer called on poor Pat-"your ticket sir?" Pat began to feel furiously in his pockets, turned them inside out, and fumed and fretted about deck, declaring that he had either lost or some one had stolen his ticket. "You know bought one, sir-for talked with you some time." "Yes, and what have you done with 2" "And, sure don't know-but it's gone."- Taking it for granted that Pat had lost his ticket, the clerk went about his business, and Pat went to receive the congratulations of Murphy. Thus they passed on for halfprice and no one would ever have known of their fraudulent proceedings, had not Pat after ar- irving at New York gone up to the Clerk and said "Arrah honey worked you nicely."- And after relating the manner in which the "work" was done, Capt. Vanderbilt kindly clapped him on the shoulder, walked him up to the Police, and had him sent to the Peni- tentiary for being engaged in a fraudulent transaction.-Nes0- Bedford Gazette.

BREACH OF PROMISE.

The Springfield Gazette states that an
action for breach of promise of marriage
was tried before the Supreme Court in that
town few days since. The plaintiff was
Caroline Fuller of Ludlow--and the defen-
dant Orren Skies, of Maine. 1t seems that
some nine or ten years ago, Mr.. Skies re-
sided in Ludlow, where he became attach
ed to Miss Fuller, and an engagement enter
ed into between them. He soon after went
to Bangor to pursue his theological studies,
and afterwards became settled minister in
Maine, and married another lady in 1881.
The main ground of defence was, that, al
although contract was actuelly made, yet
the parties had mutually agreed to dissolve.
The jury, after deliberating the whole of
Wednesday night, returned verdict of one
hundred dollars, as "a compensation for the
disappointment of the forlorn damsel.
1t seems to have taken the Springfield
Jury nearly proportionate degree of time
to agree on the merits Of the defendant as it
did him to make up his mind on those of
the fair plaintiff.

COL. BENTON

The St. Louis .Argus, of the 5th inst.
contains a letter from Col BENTON, in reply
to note addressed to him by several dem
ocrats of Louisville for the purpose ofascer-
tanning whether or not he ''will accept the
nomination of any thing else than Nation
al Convention of the Democratic Party"
as candidate for the Presidency in 1910.
The Colonel refers them to his letter and
toast, to the managers of the Inauguration
dinner in New York, on the 4th of March
last, which, he says, fully expresses his
sentiments in relation to the next presiden-
tial election. He adds:
81 am decidedly in favor of the re-elec-
ton Of Mr.. VAN buren,, supposing his ad-
ministration to give satisfaction to the re-
publican party (of which have no doubt J
and that without reference to his own incli-
nations, Of which | know nothing, and with
out regard to my personal feelings in his fa-
your, which can have no influence in case
of this kind, but wholly and entirely for
public reasons, and because believe his re-
election win be for the public good.

A DEMOCRAT.

SMALL NoTEs.-The injustice of prohib-
lung by law all Banks from issuing notes of
denominations less than five dollars, when
other corporations are permitted to inAict
these rags upon us, only bears analogy with
the granting oflicenses to keep public hou-
ses of entertainment, and at the same time
depriving the landlord of legal remedy in
the collection of his accounts. For in
stance, the new Bank about being put in
operation at Williamsport pays bonus to
the state of $4,000 for its charter; and
while the fine prescribed by the act of as
sembly would be exacted were il to issue
small bills, yet an unauthorized corporatiou
can infringe upon the law unheeded and
without evident censure from anv source,
And so it is with landlords. They nav
$40 per annum for the privilege of selling
liquor; and yet should they trust cus.o-
mer, and sue him for the account. thew
would be mulcted in double costs for their
llbcrality, There is no reason in such in
justice.

DREADFUL DEATH.--A woman named
Mary Whitmore, abandoned to intemper-
ance, threw herself out of the three story
window of her residence, in Boston, and
was killed almost instantly. Her husband
had locked her into the room, while he
went in pursuit of police officer, to see if
something could not be done to keep her
away from liquor. The husband could
have pursued better course than this.
No police officer cured a drunkard. In
temperance is a physical infrmity, and Is
most successfully combatted by physical
remedies. The drunkard always feels in
toxication at certain hours. The first is on
rising. He is then languid, and without
appetite for breakfast. Let him then swal-
low wine glass full of strong decoction of
NORWOOD. Though bitter, it prevents all
nausea and creates an appetite. BY this,
the drunkard will be saved from the misera-
bic necessity of seeking an appetite from
alcohol. When he feels the usual sinking
between breakfast and dinner, that distress
ing sensation which inevitably assails the
drunkard, let him drink glass of cold water,
and take some cordial, stimulating food, as
gingerbread, or well seasoned soup. Any
species offood, even buscuit, Is better than
nothing, and will removeth sinking. Let
his drink be cold water, and nothing else.
AZ no time and on no account, lethim touch
alcohol 10 any shape, whether spirits, wine,
beer or cider. This regimen will cure the
most obstinate cases, ii efIectually tried,
and perseyered in. The whole theory con-
sists in treating intemperance as physical,
instead ofa moral infrmity, and of using
food instead of alcohol, whenever the long
ing ensues. The patient should be prepa-
red at all times. He should always have
a biscuit or some such thing in his pocket,
and also at reach in the night, and should
not omit the wormwUod before each meal.
To prepare this decOction, put some worm
wood into bottle, pour warm water uponlt'
stop it with cork, anduse from itas OCCASION
requires.

Capital Punishment IN England.-In
the House ofCommons, on the 23d Of March,
Lord John Russell obtained leave to bring
IN several bills to amend the Criminal Laws.
5Ie proposes to abolish the punishment of
death Tor all classes of forgery; for certain
offences against the person which are now
capital; and for robbery and burglary, under
certain circumstances and he proposes other
measures relative to piracy aud burning
ships. The previous amelioration of the
criminal code, he maintains, has not increas-
ed the number of offences. He also pro-
poses TO make the minimum period of
transportation ten years, and at the same
nn1e' to make such changes in the system
of imprisonmenta home as shall furnish
punishment secondary TO transportation.

THE CONVENTION,

In our notices Of the proceedings Of this
body we have heretofore endeavored to bias
our prejudices, and give the most favorable
detail of their operations, We done this
as an incentive to the promotion of public
good, and We can only now regret that all
our hopes have melted into disappointment
and modification. The opposition have
the ascendancy; and they have bound them
selves hand and foot to the car of the great
MOneyed Moloch, determined to resist any
compromise, and to oppose any amend
ments, which may add to the liberty and
happiness of the people. The hydra-head-
ed Mammoth, who has so frequently usurp-
ed other powers than those granted by con-
gress, when National concern, seems de-
termined on preserving the profitable digni-
ty Of those naughty aristocrats and con-
temptible shavers, who glory in the distress
and thraldom of the people-and MAORI
ty of the convention are the conservative
instruments to promote its heartless designs
We can only rejoice in the known fact, that
although they have majority in the con-
vention, they are vastly in the minority a.
mongst the free voters of Pennsylvania
Time will yet effect the requisite altera-
tons; and we feel satisfied that THE Pro
PIE will call conventions, (without legisla-
tive aid,) until they can get their wishes
granted and their ends accomplished We
can HOPE no longer for any good from that
quarter; and with majority large enough
to take all power in our own hands, we
are prepared to think, SPEAK, and ACT, in
conformity with our sentiments.
