Proposed Mass Meeting.

In accordance with the time honored and es-
tablished usage Of the Democmtic party, the un-
dersgned, members Of the same aud citizens Of
Washington Territory, respectfully and earnestly
urge upon the different members Of our political
faith, complete organization Ofthe party through
out the Territory.
We deem it unnecessary al this time to enter
upon discussion Of the proprely Of an organiza
ton of parties we think it manifest I, all who
regard the advance Of Democratic principles be
fore men, or measures before localities
We are aware that reorganization Of the Dem
ocratic party, at this or any other time. will be
strenuously opposed by that party, who have ever
been found the sle,pless and vigilant opposcrs OF
Democratic advancement and progress. This is
to be expected. A party who enteHSins few. If
any, poliJicgl principles or measures, to recon-
mend them to the sympathy or feelings Of the
masses, will at all times be found ready 10 ioment
divisions in our ranks by multiplying candidates,
and local and sectional issues. Let defeat the
Vaccinations Of our opponents by a union among
ourselves; let all considerations Of men, locality
and place lie offered up on the altar Of principle.
Aud to this end we would invite the Democracy
Of the Territory, 10 Mass Meeting, to he held at
Olympia, on the second Monday in July next, to
select Democratic Central Committee, who will
FIX upon a time and place forholling Territorial
Convention, to select proper person as a Dem
Ocratc Candidate for Delegate 10 Congress.

Gamers Vegetable Pain Extractor.
IIAVING, for the last fifteen years, been
L l. engaged in examining the medical prop
critics of the various plants of the vegetable
kingdom, in order to ascertain that if by
proper and proportionate combination and
blending Of several kinds into one harmoni-
Gus whole, a liquid medicine could not be OBJ
tanned that could be used internally and ex
ternally without injury to the human system
and that would relieve poor suffering human

cy in removing pain and disease from the hui
man body. stands unryalled in the history of
medicine. This is no idle boast. as I first
tried its virtues in my own family and then
administered it to my friends and acquain-
tances until several hundreds have used it,
and who are as much astonished and delighted
myself at the almost miraculous cures it
has performed.
Satisfied Of its wonderful powers. and at the
earnest solicitation of my friends, have de-
termned to spread it broadcast throughout
tho world, and for this purpose I have ap-
pointed Mr.. G. L. GILCHREsT. of the city of
Washington, D. c., my General Agent, who is
prepared to su'p Agents with any quantity
of this valuable medicine. To him all letters
and orders must be addressed, (post-paid,) J

THE CHILD'S COFFIN;
OR, THE REPENTANT CRIMINAL.
By SAMUEL C.. ALLEN.

BY SAMUEL c. ALLEN.
I Twas coming home one night from at
tending patient who resided at Hendon,
and who promised not to be long for this
world, when as | crossed stile that led
me into the high road, after which I had
a near cut across some fields, [ heard
words of contention between a man and
woman.
1t was an autumnal evening, and twi-
light was fast disappearing, yet there was
sufficient to distinguish the figures of two
persons, who were too intent upon their
quarrel to see me as they passed the stile,
particularly, as paused and drew back
a little.
"You shall carry it., cried the man,
with a brutal oath; "you shall carry it.
| know we'll that if don't take care that
you have a good hand it, you will be
preaching upon the whole affair some of
these days. Carry it,"-curses.
"Oh! John, John, I am i'll, so ILL.,"
"I'll be hanged. Come on. It's an
excuse. You don't like to carry coffin,
but shall"
"I-I am faint, John. ] do not know
what it is that has come over me, but L
| am very faint and i'll. Oh! if this should
be some. Judgment of God. Oh! John,
John, let us repent.
"Silence, will you? D-n it, how do
| know but some one may be listening
Give me the coffin. Confound YOU, won t
you come on? [ wish | had the buying
of your own coffin instead of the child's.
Come on, will you! What! you'll lie
down, will you? Take that, them
heard a blow or a kick given; and |
commenced whistling with all my might
as | tramped on after them with quick
step. This had the effect of stopping
any further violence, and all was still till
[ had reached the spot where the man
and woman were. The latter was upon
the ground, while the man had an odd
shaped bundle of something upon his
shoulder, which was so we'll disguised
that if had not, from their previous con-
versation, known it was coffin, GER
tainly should not have recognized it as SO
dismal an object.
"a fine evening"" l said. ':Halloa
any thing amiss Z"
"Oh dear-God bless you-no, sir, u
said the man, in a canting voice, =" the
Lord be good to us-no sir. It's my
wife, bless her heart, she's little tired
or so-that's all. Come, old woman, get
up: the Lord will help you
The woman struggled to her feet with
difficulty.
-" Good evening, sir" said the hypocri-
teal scoundrel "good evening, sir; l
thank you, sir.
''Oh! I'm going your way" said 1.
He paused a moment.
"Oh." he said, * to Hampstead, sir, |
suppose. Come, old woman, keep up
Think of the Lord, and cheer up"
g Partly to Hampstead" " said |, b" and
partly not. It's bracing night, ain it!

BY ALICE CAREY.
She waited in tie drawing-room,
Good Mrs Mael Moore;
Six fiounces of pretty lace
Were On the ress she wore;
Upon her bosom French rose,
And ON her capsome satin bows.
One little foot jst peeped without
Her petticoatso white;
Her hair. littb gray, tits true,
Was put in curl and bright:
And sweet her dances shone around,
As if some goodthing she had found.
The clock was n the stroke of eight,
And still she sat apart,
Now listening cose, and laying now
One hand upon her heart;
And toying with her curls and rings,
And doing other girlish things.
At length step was heard, and then
A ringing at the door;
Five minutes and half too soon,"
Said Mrs. Mabel Moore
Then to her maid-s'It is no sin,
Go quick, and say I am not in''
"For if he loves me as he says,
He can afford to wait,
And come again precisely at
Five minutes after eight
My nerves are really quite unstiung,
So very earnestly he rung.'
But true love never did run smoolh,
As oftentimes is told;
And when the door was opened vide,
And shivering in the cold,
The maid beheld the expected guest,
She smiled and courtesied her best;
And told him with a grace as sweet
As if she cravcd boon,
Her mistress had declared it was
A little bit too soon.
And that she thought it was no sin
To send him word she was not in.
s'Ah, very WE'LL" the guest replied,
''In truth | make no doubt,
That whether she be in or no.
I've surely found her OUT
And she who sent him from the door
