"'TIS BETTER LATE THAN NEVER"

Has sorrow cas-. thy spirit down,
And chas'd thy hopes elysian?
Be not dishearten'd by her lrown,
Forgetful of thy mission;
For each may with his fortunes cope,
And be his fame's achiever;
Come! cast thine own bright horoscope,
IT'S better late than never!
Have syren voices, lov'd too well,
In trance ignoble bound thee?
Has pleasure cast her fatal SPELL
The false enchantress-round thee?
Do selfish joys thy heart restrain
From every high endeavor?
Arise, and trample on thy chain,
IT'S better late than never.
Does hopeless love with slow decay,
Corrode thy heart and eat it,
AS sunshine mefs the snow away
1t never could have heated?
Oh! think how base tits thus thy life
From manly thought to sever;
Engage in some ennobling strife!
IT'S better late than never!
Does darkness shroud thy native isle ?
Do tyrants join to slight her?
And do'st thou calmly look the while,
Nor raisest hand to right to her?
Her cause is thine-wilt thou be slave
To any lord soever?
If not, be up ! and mite to save!
IT'S better late thaA never!
Or hast thou, wandering from this home,
Forgot the land that iieth
Above the myriad -lamped dome,
Where sorrow never hieth!
Oh do not for phantom fly
From Paradise forever;
But turn thy trusting eyes on high,
"Tis better late than never. :

SINGING REDUKE.--A correspondent
of the Steubenville CO., Union, writing
from Buena Vista, holds the following
language: r.-t
at grieves US 70 the heart to see so
many of the American Press giving "aid
and comfort" to the enemy, but it gratiies
US to see that THEY DO NOT BELONG TO
THE DEMOCRACY.
81 tell you, IT sTIRs THE BLOOD OF
THOSE who have sacrificed every comfort,
endured every hardship, and are now Id
the field Of battle for their country's hon.
or, and to see its citizens justified. when
the publications Of their fellow-citizens
denounce them as banditti in the worss
sense Of the term, and deny that the war
is either justified by the laws of God or
man. They are of the TORIES of old--a
second edition of the Blue LfeHT FEDS.
Our term of service will soon have 'expir.
ed, and then we will return home to battle
with those men at the ot-box, to maink
tain our liberty" -e

Regular Nominations.

The following from the Detroit Free
Press-a sterling democratic paper-con;
tains the true doctrine in relation tc the
mode of selecting candidates for Office
The convention system, though not per-
feet, is the very best that has yet been de:
vised for promoting harmony, concert and
concession Ia a numerous party State
Register.
"One of the first and most important
duties of democrats, Is to abide by the
decisions fregularly called conventions,
and nominations duly made. The Gus.
toms of the party are coeval with its orr.
gin, and essential to its existence. They
are based upon the common consent of the
people, and whenever a candidate has
had as fair an opportunity as any and all
the others of being heard, common sense
and reason dictate that all should be bound
by the. voice Of the majority. The demo.
crat who bolts regular nomination, thus
aiding and abetting the wings, may we'll
be suspected Of being an enemy TO the
principles he processes. 1t is true, nom.
inee may be somewhat Objectionable to
few. No candidate is ever pleasing to
all. Yet it must not be forgotten, THAT If
such erase his name from their votes they
thereby give aid to his opponent, whose
principles may be wholly pernicious.-
Democrats should never forget, either,
that in sustaining their candidates, espec-
tally for the higher Offices, they are voting
directly to sustain their principles. These
are of far greater moment than any con.
sideration of private feeling, prejudice, OF
local interest. These sentiments are Of
Importance to the we'll being Of the party,
and if any should have so far forgotten
their duties as to take ground against its
regular nominees, we would commend
them to their special attention"

Tuck IN Your HANDKERcHlEF.-
Tuck in your handkerchief, young man; it
was made for use, not show; straws show
which way the wind blows. In your
conduct we behold the future man. Study
to attract attention and you fail of your OBJ
.jeet. The feathers that belong to pea
cock are -natural-every body admires
them. No less beautiful is the jackdaw
in borrowed plumage, adjusted to his
body--but all despise him. A punctilious
regard to dress and appearance may re-
suit to your, shame and ruin. Have an
eye upon these things and it will save you
a deal of modification. We have seen
men dressed out in gewgaw and ruffles,
who had not actually shirt to their
backs False pride prompted them to act
like fools. When the fact was known,
they were hooted at by their former com.
panions. fyou are poor, make no parade;
appear not in false colors; wear not a
goodly outside, when you have not the le-
al necessaries within. Tuck in your
handkere hief, every body knows ii is a
useful one and kept for special occasions.
1t is strange-but pride and poverty have
been so long united that it is hard to
tear them apart Tribune. a,, -

A FIGHT1NG PkRsoN.-Tt is q we'll
known fact, that many of the southern
Methodist parsons are members OF the
church militant, as well as the church tri.
umphant. It is said that a Methodist
minister was captain Of a company in one
oftbe Mississippi regiments. Just before
the battle of Buena Vista commenced,
and whilst the troops were forming, he
delivered the following pithy prayer, at
the head of his company:
"Be with US this day in the conflict, Oh,
Lord We are few, and the enemy ars
manyI Be with us as Thou vast with
Joshua, when he went down from Gilgal
TO Bethorn and Askalon, to smite the AM
orites. We do not ask Thee for the sun
and the moon 20 stand still. but grant us
plenty of powder, plenty of daylight. and
no cowardsl Take 0ld Rough and Ready
under Thy special charge! Amen

BANK PAPER CIRCULATING IN THIi
STATE.-One argument used by those in
favor of creating Banks in this State is,
that we are overrun with the paper OF
banks situated in other States, and that
we might as well have the paper Of OUT
own banks. In Ohio they complain that
they cannot get the paper of their own
banks, but the State is flooded with Indi-
ana, Kentucky and Eastern bank bills
This is always the way. Banks like to
circulate their money at distance, so
that 1t may not soon come home for the
specie. Banks here would only gather
up what little specie there is now in cir
culation and put their notes in its place;
while We would etlll have the same amount
of foreign bank paper in circulation

SARDIN1A.-The military resources Of
this spirited lutte kingdom, which has of.
lered its army for the use of the Pope, is
thus described:
"'Sardinia has population of about
FIVE millions and half an army on the
war footing of one hundred thousand, and
a navy oftwenty-eight ships, five of which
are sixty gun frigates." The Savoyardt
have always been noted for being good
soldiers, in truth the very best ofItaly.-
Napoleon praised them as some of the
bravest and most hardy in his army
Their mountain air, and their simple hab.
its give them more vigor of body, and EN-:
ergy ofmind, than the Italians who inhabit
the plains"

lowed, the President would have been
censured for his relinquisbing sound and
healthy system; but the tariff of 1916 has
produced moro revenue, and afforded a
better protection to industry. Is he not
entitled to the benefit of his successful
project? From the moment that James
K. Polk accepted the Office he now
holds, he has been unremilting in his efforts
to discharge its duties conscientiously and
prosperously for the country. His cabi-

Why, would get married myself if |

great thing for Ned Green to say, confirm
ed bachelor as he was.
The old friend sighed, as he repeated,
"yes, everything depends upon wife,"
NFThe whole machinery of this gov
eminent of ours is regulated and works OIL
system of compromise. The very rev.
enues that maintain it are derived from a
tariff, which is practical exempliscation
of this spirit. The laws of the General
Government are framed with an impair
tial regard to the interests of every por-
ton OF the country; but the interest Of
different sections Of the country are ad-
verse, to each other-therefore impartial
laws must involve mutual accommodation
and compromise. 1t will not be contend
ed that what suits Massachusetts is for the
interest of South Carolina, or what is
pleasing to Maine is equally so t6Louisi-
ana. The habits of the people, their feel
ings, their interests, their occupations are
different, and must ever remain so. Laws
framed specially to suit each must conse-
quently be dramatically opposite in their
aim and character. Therefore, in order
to do equal justice to both sections, mu-
tual concession must enter as primary
element into all laws ofthe General Gov
eminent. This mutual concession is wha.
is commonly known by the name of "com-
promise"
II, then, into the formation of laws reg
ulating commerce and other domestic con.
Germs, this thing, called compromise, of
necessity enters primarily, it should also
enter into the formation Of laws relating
to slavery, for the reason that the North
and the South differ as much on that ques-
ton as on any other. But difference of
opinion on questions Of commerce and
other cognate questions, does not involve
danger of dissolution OF the Upion.-N.
