TRJJE LOVE AND A HAPPY HOME.

ASK what thou wilt of me;
OF all on earth, thou cans't have thy choice
On land, or on the sea.

And what thou wilt, I'll grant;
But only once, would have thee know.
Can supply thy want"
Then sat me down and pondered long.
On what the gift should be,
Which the fairy voice had kindly said
Should be given but once TO me.
l will not ask that wealth or fame,
Should worthless chaptlet twine
Around my brow, or adorn my name II;
Nor that beauty should be mine.
For these are transient as the dew
Before the burning sun;
Ani fade as quickly from the view,
Ere morning is begun.
In none Of these" my heart replied,
"Would the height of happlness,bel
True love and happy home,' cried,
lis all that ask of thee"

LETTER FROM MR. CSRwN.-1hc Hon.
Thomas Corwin of Ohio, the unninching op-
ponent of the extension Of slavery, has written
the following excellent letter in answer TO an
invitation to address a Whg meeting in Ian
caster, Pa. Ilo states the true issue on the
coming election in concise terms, stripped of
all the false theories and conclusions, with
which certain ambitious and disappointed poll
ticians have succeeded in binding the eyes Of
many intelligent voters
/ WASHINGTON CITY, July 81, 1873.
I Dear Sir Your invitation to Wing
Meeting at Lancaster on the 9th Of next month,
came to me this morning.
/ Nothing could give me greater personal
qualification than to mingle with you in the
patriotic labors of that day.
! The Old Guard " of Lancaster have long
been known to me, for their wcll-camcd repu-
tation for intelligent public virtue, and uncon-
qucred and UnCOnguc,ddIe courage and zeal
Whatever may have been the character or
causes of the many trying emergencies through
which ouI Republic has heretofore passed,
none has ever more earnestly appealed to the
sclfsacrifcing devotion Of all true Whlgs than
the present.
Should the Loco Foco candidate for the
Presidency succeed, we must look for the a.
doption of 4 policy new to our system, I'M
known 10 the views of its founders and IN my
Judgment, fatal 10 its existence. II the future
Is to be fOretOld by the past--ll mems conduct
is to be anticipated by their declared wishes
and opinions, then the election of Gen. Casi
will be followed by wars of aggression on weak
neghborlng Republics, bringing IN their incy-
liable results, acquisition OF territory, amalga
