The Logansport Pharos has the following in rela-
ton TO the gentleman whose name heads this article.
We know not if the charges are correct but if they
should prove SO, it should certainly be subject for
the action of the State Central Committee and they
will no doubt inquire into the matter. We are sorry,
If 1t should prove true that Mr.. E. is short-sight-
ed, the event will most assuredy prove him to have
been. In some cases we are party will be
the gamer by these dsafections, if in all. They
arise from conviction that our principles are
wrong 1t is only from erpedtency, such as has, and
will still continue togovern the wing party "Avail-
ability" that they may get Office, that's all. The
people will see it all and apply the corrective by sus-
tanning their principles by supporting their Orn cho-
sen standard bearer.
Strike OFF HIS NAME-We learn from the Craw-

appointed by State Convention as one of the con-
tingent Senatorial Delegates to the Democratic Ma

Going for Taylor therefore,
Without why or wherefore!
And, with fftytwo others, is hot-foot for holding

name He may have been Democrat once, but by
this move he has certainly thrown away all claim
to the title; and most certainly he ought not TO
be admitted, in any contingency into the Democratic
National Convention representative of the wish

ter be unrepresented in the National Convention than
TO be mSrepresented by such halfandhalf overland

The Beauties of Charity.

How beautiful is charity. She goeth forth
like an angel with consolation on her tongue,
love in her heart, pety in her eyes, and relief in
her hands. She incIines her ear to the suffering
and the poor. She seekeh out the distressed nor
ceases from morning until evening her mission
among the homes of the sorrowing. She heeds
net the scorn of the proud, the shrinking of the
fearful the eyes of the inquisitve, nor rain, nor
wind, nor the bitter frost, but keeps on, and her
way is comprised about with gladness The
hungry, the i'll clad, the sick and the despairing
rejoice at her approach They behold her shin
ing like celestial light amid the darkness of the
world, She shuns ostentation-she has no set
time for her labor, but worketh always for want
and suffering, and grief, are ever among men.
ever in her path Nor goes She unrewarded-
The recollectlons of virtue, mingled with the
gratitude Of those who have enjoyed her benif-
cence, make her life perpetual delight. In.
spired by her, man performs the noblest deeds,
and woman is exalted into an angel.

The boy who wouldn't haul WhiSkey

A lad drove his team four miles, to a milE to
get load of flour, to haul to the canal When
he arrived at the mill, the miller told him they
had no loading; the mill was out of repair, but
as he was boy he would help him to a load, so
that he might not lose his half day work. which
would amount to one dollar. Said he, "You
may drive across the way to the dlstillery, and
load up, and will pay you just the same price
for hauling the load of whiskey that we do fer
hauling flour"
The lad thought moment, and then locke d
up very pleasantly, and said, II don't know what
father will say, but our horses can't haul whis
key, not to-day;" and so he wheeled them of
with right good cheer, and drove home aud told
his father.

The two Sexes,

Fhe following true and interesting paragraphs
are extracted from an article by Mrs Sgourney,
whose mind is the dwelling oflile and beauty ::
Man might be initiated into the varieties
and mysteries OF needle-Work; taught to have pa

fancy, and to steal with nolseless step about the

sltucted to contend for the pain Of science; TO
pour forth eloquence in Senaes, or to wade
through fields of slaughter to a throne Yet re-
voltings of the soul would attend this violence of
nature, this abuse of physical aud intellectual en-
ergv while the beauty of social order would be
defaced and the fountain Of earthly felicity bro
ken.
" We arrive therefore, at the conclusion, that the
sexes are intended for different spheres, and con
structed IN conformity to the respective destina-
tons by Him who bids the oak brave the fury OF
the tembest, and the Alpine flowers lean its cheek
on the bosom of eternal snow. But disparity
does not necessarily imply nferIority The
high places of tine earth, with their pomp and Clio
~ are indeed accessible only to the mouach O
ambition, or the grasp of power; yet those who
pass, with faithful and unappauded zeal, through
the humble round of duty, are not unnoticed by
the Great Taskmakers eye and their endow
ment, though accounted poverty among men
may prove durable riches in the kingdom of
heaven,
