He felt choking sensation, and his trembling
knees bore heavily against each other.
Sally he said, after pause, in an altered
and very earnest tone-I know it is more COM
Portable here than it is at home, but am going
home, and intend staying there. Won't you
go with me, and try to make it as comfortable
as it used to be! The change is all my fault,
know; but it shall be my fault no longer. Here,
once and forever, | solemnly pledge myself be-
fore God never again to drink the poison that has
made me more than half brute, and bcggared
my family Come Sally! let US hurry away from
here; the very air Expresses me. Come, in
Heavens name, come!
Quickly, as if an electric shock had startled
her, did Mrs. Lyon spring from her seat, as her
husband uttered the last word, and lay hold of
his arm with an eager grasp.
The Lord in heaven be prased she said
Isolemny, for it is his work. Yes, come Let
US go quickly. There will aguin be light, and
fire, and food in our dwelling. Orr last days
may yet be our hest days,
Lifting each child from the floor, the hus
band and wife left that den of misery with as
hasty steps as Christians when he fled from the
City Of Destruction.
The hopeful declaration of Mrs. Lyon proved
true There was soon light, and fire, and food
again in that cherries dwelling; and the last
days Of Ralph and his family have proved their
best days. He has never since tasted the
tempting cup, and finds that it is a very easy

While the minutes pass ye by?

While the hours just breathe and die?

With a purpose true and strong
In the end a laurel earneth
Nobler than the highest song.

On the strength We have within;
Bid your foes a stern defiance
And their homage we shall win.

Standing still or asking when

Duty calls for earnest men!
Do ye cringe at shadows fleeing
Like a sun-concealing cloud?
Give them all silent greeting,
But be never by them bowed.

Makes the labor long and hard;
Sweetel far will be the blending,
Joy with after-toils reward.

Thinking dangers fill the way,
Bid the tyrant foes assemble
In their terror born array.
Doubling ever makes us weaker
Fears make coward hearts for aye
But the true and earnest seeker
Knows no yielding but to die.

Whilst he has chosen to leave the people to
ascertain those opinions, as best they might.
I will supply the omission, by furnishing
the opinion of at least enc of the members
of the Convention that framed the Consti-
tuition, and one whose opinion: is not gen
orally called in question in this county
1t is not necessary TO enquire Uh0 Mr..
Bates is, and what weight ought to be at
,tachcd to his opinions.
But with IA full knowledge Of his opin-
ions, and with full knowledge also that
MeSsrs. Porter and Broadhead were claim

and both believed % he opposed to my cleo

ing myself to abide their decision, if favor
able to Mr.. Watson, and at the same time
pledging myself to withhold the opinion of
Mr.. Bates, till after their decision, that i;
might have no influence on that decision,
as it might reasonably be expected to have.
Strange as it may seem, MI. Watson has
Ideclined TO submit the question Of his cligi-
'hility to the decision Of his w friends,
one of whom it is known, has published an
il not an optnion favorable 10
him. Mr.. Watson has repeatedly and pub
licly said that Mr.. Broadhcad was the au-
thor of the article. published some time
since in the Mo. Journal, sustaining his
view Of the Constitutional question. There
is therefore nc improperly or indelicacy
in my thus referring to it. No stronger, or
other evidence need be given that Mr..
Watson himself considers his claim, on the
constitutional question, as wholly unfound-
ed.
could give many circumstances going
TO show conclusively that those who have
.professed most soiicitude for the election
of Mr.. Watson. and on whom he must rely
for support, really had no expectations OF
.clecting him. but it would consume too
much time and take up too much space
But ! will refer TO a few. Is he not per-
fectly aware that during the last county
court the utmost exertians were used to
get rid Of him. and TO take up another man,
and that tho effort failed, only because of the
stern refusal Of the gentleman to be thus
used? Is he MOI perfectly well informed
that some Of those on whose support and
Friendship he is relying. have admitted that
the Constitutional question and discussions,
had "killed him dead?:"
