true one, entitled 1.-THE Helsman of Lake Erie in
which is recorded tie loss of the steamer Jersey by
fire and storm, at night, without boat. The fact
should be often recorded for the memory Of honest
John Maynard" should never be lost. He was
the Helmsan, and was cut off by sheet of flame
from the ships crew. The steamer was seven miles
from shore, and on him depended the lives fall.
"John Maynard" cried the captain.
"Ay, ay, sir" said John.
''Can you hold on five minutes longerl"

And he did try; the flames came nearer and nearer
sheet of smoke would sometimes almost suifocate
him. and his hair was singed-his blood seemed on fire
with the great heat Crouching far back as he could
he held the wheel firmly in the left hand till the flesh
shriveed, and the muscles cracked in the flames
and then he stretched forth his right, and bore the
agony without scream groan. 1t was enough
for him that he heard the cheer of the sailors to the
approaching boats; the cry OF the captain 1.-The wo
men first and then every man for himself and Coo
for us al' And they were the last sounds h. heard
How he perished was not known; whether dzzed by
the smoke he lost his footing in endeayorng to come
forward and fell overheard whether he was suffo
Gated by the dense smoke, his comrades could no
tell AT the moment the vessel struck, the boats wer,
her side; passengers sailors and captain leaped in
to them, swan for their lives; all he to whom
they owed everything, escaped.
He had died the death of a christian hero-I hac
almost said of martyr, his spirit was commended
into his Fathers hands, and his body sleeps IN peac,
by the green side oflake Erie.

we hope will Je read by every voter. They
define clearly the position Of the democratic
party, and proclaim those great truths IN the
steady adherence 10 which our party Las 50
often ,riumphed. The provSo question, as
the party Of the state differ in reference tui,,
was wisely excluded, and the different see

ton Of slavery, and lis Solictudc for the pre-
servation Of the Union. The instruction OF
the delegates TO the national convention wa
proper enough il intended TO refer 10 those
appointed by the convention only, which We
presume Is all that was intended. ASamat-
ter Of course, the delegates appointed 10y this
and the Cook circuit, cannot be governed by
these instructions, If they should feel it their
duty 10 their immediate constituents TO de-
part from them, which we hope they may
not have occasion TO do.
