THE LOWER CLASS.

Who are they The toiling millions, the
laboring man and woman, the farmer, the
mechanic, the artizan, the inventor, the pro-
ducer! Far from it, These are natures no.
bility-Gods favortes--the salt of the earth,
No matter whether they are high or low in
station rich or poor in pelf, conspicuous or
humble in position, they are surely the sup
per crclesn in the order of nature, whatever
the fictitious distinctions of society, fashion
able or questionable, decree.
1t is not low-it is the highest duty, prlvi-
lege and pleasure, for the great man ana 'he
whole souled woman to earn what they pos
sess to work their own way through lite, 10
he architects of their own fortunes. Some
NAV rank the classes we have alluded to as
only relative low, and in fact the middline
classes. We insist they are absolutely the
yery highest. If there is class of human
beings on earth, who may properly be de-
nominated low, it is composed of those who
spend without earning, who consume without
producing, who dissipate on the earnings OF
their fathers or relatives without being OF
doing any thing In and of themselves
We are all mariners on this sea of life,
And they who climb above us upth shrouds
Have only, in their oyerstepping place,
Gained more dangerous station and foot
hold more insecure,

The President then announced that both
delegations from New York were received
into the brotherhood of the Convention.
Mr. Hannegan rose and said that he felt
bound, under the instructions of the Indiana
State Convention, TO submit the following re-
solution:
''Resolved That the New York Delegation
known as the Syracuse Hunker Delegation,
are rightfully entitled to cast the vote of said
State in Convention"
Senator Turney moved to lay the resolu-
ton Oh the table, but withdrew it for Mr..
Dickinson to read a protest from the "Hun-
ker" delegates of New York against admit
ting the Barburners. The paper read denoun-
ced the proceedings as unjust and calculated
to satisfy neither party, while it would pro-
duce much mischief.
There was now much sensation in the
Convention,
Mr.. Turney renewed his motion, and Mr..
Hannegan's resolution was laid on the table
ayes l57 nays 95.
Mr. Sanderson then moved that the Con-
vention proceed to nominate candidates for
President of the United States, and upon it
called the previous question.
Mr.. Cambreleng asked permission for the
Barnburner delegation to retire, which was
granted.
Mr.. Ramsey, of Tenn, then obtained leave
to read letter from President Polk, which
communication states that he had been led to
suppose, from speculations in the public press
and the Inquiries of Delegates to the Conven-
ton that some of his political friends might
be inclined to propose the use of his name
for denomination as a candidate for the Pre-
sidency. He wished to state distinctly that
any such use of his name was without his
agency or desire and to relieve the Conven-
ton of any embarrassment that might be felt
he reiterated his desire to withdraw to pri-
vate life the close of his official term.
| This communication was received with
much applause.
Mr. Yancey, of Alabama, then moved to
lay on the table the motion to proceed to the
nomination of candidates, and that the Con .
vention proceed to ballot for candidate to be
supported by the Democratic party for the
Presidency.

TITUS.

THE CouNrRY.-THE GRASS AND GRAIN
CRoPs.-A ride into the country at this sea-
son OF the year presents most beautiful
sight. The season is remarkably forward, and
everything is growing luxuriantly. The grass
and the grain promise abundant crops and
fruit, particularly cherries, hang in the most
profuse clusers upon branches Of the trees.
This is not only the case in our immediate
neighborhood, but accounts from other quar-.
ters, in our exchanges give the same testi-
mony. In the counties Of Bucks, Montgo-
merry, Lancaster Chester, and Lebanon, Of
our own State, harvest time promises to re-
ward bounteously the husbandman's toll, and
over the whole country plenty seems prepa-
ring to shower golden fruit, into his lap

THE SIAMESE TWINS.

The Siamese twins are living in North Car
olina, as farmers and are both married. A
correspondent of the Richmond papers, who
has recently visited their home, writes some
interesting details in relation to their domes-
tic life.
The twins chop wood remarkably fast,
four hands being on the axe at the same time.
They also shoot at mark or game with their
four hands resting on the gun. They drive
their horses forty miles, to Wilkes, them
selves and do any kind of work about the
farm. Mrs Eng says her husband is very
kind to the negroes, and that Chang is very
severe with them. Mrs. Eng is also better
disposed than Mrs. Chang, and is the pret-
tiest.
Mrs. Eng is very close and saving; and
Mrs. Chang is disposed to indulge in dress
and various other expenses. The twins rare
ly differ about dress, but often differ in
their ideas of purchasing negroes or land. The
opinion of Eng is always the law, and Chang
readily acquiesces. Eng does all the writing
including the signing of notes and other inn
portant papers. Eng is one inch taller than
Chang, and Changes wife is taller than Eng's.
Some old lady in the neighborhood, few
days ago. asked Eng which was the oldest
and he replied that he was just six months
older than his brother.
Well, says the old lady, thought there
was about that much difference, for you are
purity considerable bigger than your brother.
They are good on a joke, and the old lady
in earnest. They have blacksmith shop on
their farm, and shoemaker's shop also.
saw good sized frame house that they made
without any assistance, from foundation to
roof AT the table they both use a bench,
and each has his own knife and fork.
asked them if they both expected to die
at the same time, and they replied that it
could not be otherwise: for if the same di-
sease did not take them both of at one time,
as the living one would have to be separated
from the dead body, the act of separation
would be his death but their general inn
preston is that they will both die of the same
disease and at the same time, Their atlec-
ton for each other is very strong, Any OF
the neighbors offering an insult to the one
the other Immediately resents; and it would
take champion to cope with them in rough
and tumble fight To use an expression o.
their neighbors, ''they fight like cats.'

THE FIRST DUTY OF A STATESMAN.

Is to build up the moral energy of a peo.
pie, This is their first interest and he who
weakens it, inhicts an injury which no talent
can repair; nor should any splendour of SER
vices, or any momentary success, avert from
him the infamy which he has earned. Let
public men learn to think more reverently of
their functions. Let them feel that they are
touching more vital interest than property,
Let them fear nothing SO much as to sap the
moral convictions of people, by unrighteous
legislation, or a selfish policy Let them
cultivate in themselves the spirit of religion
and virtue, as the first requisite to public sta
ton. Let no apparent advantage to the COM
munity, any more than to themselves, seduce
them 10 the infracton of any moral law Let
them put faith in virtue as the strength Of
nations. Let them not be disheartened by
temporary i'll success in upright exertion. Let
them remember, that while they and their
contemporaries live but for day, the state is
to live for ages and that Time, the unerring
arbiter, will vindicate the wisdom as well as
the magnanimity of the public man; who
confding in the power of truth, justice and
philanthrophy, asserts their claims, and rev.
erently follows their monitions amidst gene.
raj disloyalty and corruption. .-Channing.

The SMILES OF lNFANcY.-Infants only
month old are often seen TO smile in their
sleep, DR.. Beattie says, ~ have heard good
women remark, that the innocent babe is
then favored with some glorious vision. But
that babe should have vision or dreams,
before it has ideas, can hardly be imagined
This is probably the effect, not Of thought,
but ofsome bodily feeling, Or merely of some
transient contraction or expansion of the mus
cles. Certain it is, that no smiles are more
captivating And Providence no doubt in
tend them as sort of silent language to en-.
gage our love; even as, by its cries, the
infant is enabled to awaken cur pity, and
command our protection"
