10 abandon the The flames in a few minutes
assembled TO The cupoa and extended under the roof 10
the adjoining rooms, where large number OF bales OF

THE VIRGINIA CoSvEsTIoS.-This Convention, COM
posed OF than 80 Delegates and which tie En-
qurer States would have been numerous, but for
the inclcmcncy Of the weather, adjourned sine die on
Saturday night I'D inst.l
Their proceedings were marked by an unity which
should characterize embarked in holy cause,
cause of principle, and which, if advocated with a
commendable spirit, will restore TO their proper indu-
those great principles which trampled upon
in $40 BY the triumphant tread of the Coons and those
who followed in their wake.
Some excellent resolutions, hostile 10 the exercise of
doubtful constitutional grants, were unanimously adopt
cd. The Convention directed their resolutions 10 be
transmitted to the Baltimore Convention, and also
solved that cheap weekly paper be established in Rich
mond for the Presidential campaign TO about
the lst March next
Another resolution adopted recommending 10
the Republican party establish without delay, in each
county, Democratic Associations, and, if necessary in
each precinct of the county.
This suggestion should be followed by the Democrats
of every State. While Clay Clubs, named after the
Wing Chief, are being formed by opponents, let
Repu cans every where organize and not obsequiousy
clingng names, BY forming associations called after
this or that man. proclaim their Clubs Democratic Clubs.
In this way we will be prepared TO meet the wes of
our opponents. SaraRaah Georgian.

The heart that we have lain near before or birth the
that cannot forget has loved us'I Pitp siass'y
My brth-day.-oh, beloved mother.
My heat is with thee DER the seas,
did not think to count another
Before wept upon thy knees
Before this scroll Of ancient years
Was bloed with thy streaming tears
Nv own do not Ia check.
| weep--albet here alone
As ii hung upon thy neck,
As if thy lips my own,
As If this fuil, sad heart OF mine,
Were beating closely upon thine.
Four weary years. How looks she now:
What light is in those tender eyes.
What trace of time has ouch'd the brow
Whose look is borrowed Of the skies
That listen 10 her nightly prayer
How is she changed since he was there
Who sleeps upon her heart alway-
Whose upon her lips Is worm
For whom the night seems made TO pray
For whom she wakes To pray al morr-
Whose sight is dim--w hose heart stIings stir
Who weeps these tears-to think oil her!
know not il my mothers eyes
Would find. me changed III s!iehter things;
Pve wandered beneath many skies,
And tasted Of some bitter springs;
And many leaves, fair anu gay,
From youths full flower have dropp'd away
But, as these looser leaves depart,
The lessened Hover gets near the core,
And, when deserted quite, the heart
Takes closer what was dear of yore-
And yearns 10 those who lov'd it first
The sunshine and the dew by which lis bud was hurst
Dear mother! dost thou love me yet.
Am remembered in my home,
When those love, for joy are met
Does some wish that l would come:
Thou dost-I am BELOVED of these,
But, as the schoolboy numbers DER
Night after night the PieladsS,
And finds the stars he found before
AS turns maiden of her token
As counts the miser aye his gold
So, ill lifes silver cord Is broken,
Would tthy fond love be told
NV heart is full-nine eyes are wet

Oh. when the hour To meet again
Creeps on-and spreading DER the sea,
My heart takes up It's engthen'd chain,
And, link by link, draws thee
When land is hailed, and, from the shore,
Comes OFF the blessed breath of home,
With fragrance from my mothers door
Or flowers forgotten when come
When port is gain'd and slowly now
The old familiar paths are past
And, OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES how
gaze upon thy face at last,
And TO thee. all faint and weak,
Aud feel thy tears upon my cheek
Oh. if my heart break not with joy,
The light of Heaven will fairer seem,
And shall grow once more Il boy:
And. mother ~ will be like n dream
That pa,ted lthus for years
And once that have dried our tears,
How will the days seem long and bright
To meet thee always with the morn,
And hear thy blessing every night

And be no more, as now, in strange land, iororn!
