When fond Mothers breast is made

And every sigh that swels its heart
Finds answer in her own

To share affections kiss,
And watch it with an angels love,
Hath earth a JOY like this ?
Yet should the Spoilers tyrant hand
The budding rapture blight,
And sudden from the hearth.stone snatch

And lay the Mothes and the Wife,
In all her beauty low,
And desolate happy home,
Hath earth deeper woe +?
But when sainted Mother bends
Seraphic from the skies,
And marks along the starry road
Her ransom'd dear ones rise,
And meets them where the pearly gates
Disclose unutter'd bliss,
And leads them to the Savour's feet.

The Democratic delegates to this Convention

the following record of their proceedings:
AT meeting of the delegation from Mass

and Ackley be committee to ascertain if there
Is any contested seats in this delegation and if
so, to confer with the contestors, and propose to
them TO refer the respective claims of this DEL

The undersigned, committee appointed by
the foregoing vote, respectfully submits the fol-
lowing report, to wit: the right to a seat in the
Convention of the Hon. Robert Rantoul, Jr.,
delegate from district No. ., will be contested by
N. u. Lord, Esq. As a committee we waited
upon each of the claimants and make report that
we could suggest no arrangement that would
satisfy both parties. If we understand the qucs-
ZION, the claim of Mr.. Lord grows out of the al
legged private opinions of Mr.. Rantoul, and in
our opinion cannot affect the right of the demo-
cratic party in congressional district No. ,, to
be represented by the delegate of their own choice
at the Baltimore convention. We therefore rec
ommend that the seat in district No. . be given
to the Hon. Robert Rantoul, Jr

OFFICES AND SALARIES.

The Revenue OF the Federal Government is
not one whit too large at present if its legiti-
mate duties were recognized and fulfilled by
those who control it. The Saul st. Marie Ca
nal, opening the commerce of Lake Superior
to the vessels navigating the lower Lakes,
ought to have been completed as a National
work at least two years ago, with such im-
provements in the channel of the St Mary's
River below and in the access to the Harbors
above as would have involved an aggregate ex-
pense of One Million Dollars. A Ship Canal
across the upper part Of Florida, reducing by
hundreds Of miles the ordinary sailing distance
from New-Orleans to our Atlantic ports and to
Europe, while greatly diminishing the risks of
the voyage and securing our Commerce from
interruption in time of War, ought also to have
been finished years ago. And now the great
National Railroad, connecting the Mississippi
with our Pacific coast, ought to have Five
Millions year from the Treasury for the FIVE
years ensuing, by which time the work would
be completed; since each end of the great
worlds highway would be readily constructed
by private enterprise if the Government would
but build One Thousand Miles in the middle.
Every one Of these works, with a reasonable
and wisely adjusted Tariff, would repay its
cost to the Federal Treasury within a short
lifetime. The duties on goods consumed in
the Lake Superior region would reimburse all
the cost Of making that region thoroughly &C.
cessible within ten years, saying nothing of the
receipts from Public Lands. The National
Railroad might require twenty years wherein
to repay its cost; but it would render hsbita.
bic and valuable millions on millions Of acre,
OF Public Land otherwise vacant and useless.
and add Millions to our Population consuming
Imports and thus replenishing the Federal
Revenues. We do not need to sell our Public
Lands in order to render them source of In
come; every squatter's cabin and clearing are
contributors to the Revenue through the con.
sumption of imported goods; and whenever
they shall have been replaced BY capacious
dwelling and fruitful farm, they will contribute
still more to the Federal Treasury. The non.
sense that Home Manufactures, carried to per.
lection, would destroy our Foreign Commerce
and with it the Revenue from Imports, was
long ago exploded. Mans wants are infinite.
and the growth of Luxury is generally meas
ured and restrained only by ability to buy.
