po,trrtx syyrArny.-We are frequently
amused at the evidence which party pol't'-
clans give, of the deepest interest IN inc
prosperity Of their opponents. Although
rnarshsssed under hostile banners and pFoies-
sing opinions that do not appear to differ nan
as widely when you reflect on The hnai issue
,s when Won iuuhale them red 10, from the
brain of some fiery delnogague, they are not
withs,anding, exceedingly kind-hear'ed tei'-
yeran,s. Not a gun is fired, rot q DC"
struck. hut a ubomentary suspense Of lcstill'les
takes place, ssnd the questions-"any* BODY

fly from side to side with the hoS' '".N.
anxietv Often. the ardent sympathy OF the
warrior induces him to cry out, "any BODY
killed ~ even before discharging his piece !
And when le."tangs away" ten chances TO
one tina. the good fellows heart prompts HIM
to run into the very ranks Of bis enemies, TO
satisfy himself, whether or bot any damage has
been done-ifsa any, the eNeent--the remedies

coyery. Few: except wat.n partisan ealt0Fs'
however, 60 thus far 1;ithese' sometimes
get most curiopsly and grotesque'y treated
f,r their mains. The poor5 devil of an editor

friends of the wounded, and inhumanely
flayed I! lie is 4 then set q liberty, to return
ag soon as he likes, and what IL lnconpre-
hensible to any but regularly drilled politi-
cians-the man without 2 skin receives 1he
first words of. condolences from those VINO

him to remain with SAID brother until MS

loads il with 81 manner q aperlents, tonics'
cathartics, caterplasrDs. etc. and discharges
after dose into the agonized bosom OF his
PROSTATE foe. All this lame, perhaps the
other. equally disinterestdl, is devising some
,,,an whereby he can clotfe a deuteronomy

Genuine goodness !! angelic kind
ngss. wonderful sympathy !! the age of chiv-
airy with its stern courteby, was IN age OF
snow and ice compared to the generous
of which we WRIT.
We have been led to these reflections by
Observing the keen interest manifested Tor
each other by the two gFand parties Oh Inc
day, relative to their respective selections o.
candidates for the p~residsncy-the time ana

The time, loo, is unprdpit,ous the wings

most need il they shoulF reserve their am

Unsettled opinions augur sivision, disorder, de-
