The following is from Freilgrath the brave political
refugee:
RRPoSE OF LOVE.
Thus let me sit for evermore,
q ever lst me sit as now.
Let both thy gentle hands glide err,
Glide softly OF my heated brow
Here at thy feet . let me lie
In dreamy Joy, serene and blessed
q let close in bliss mine eye,
In thy embrace upon thy oreast'
Let me but ope it to the sheen,
Which wondTously Ilumines thine;
In which III er repose serene
Nv life my all for mine
Let me but ope Il 10 the tear,
Which burnng seeks TO burst its thrall,
Which unawares, crystal sphere,
Seeks through my closing I'D TO fail
Thus I'm at rest thus kind and good
Thus | am gentle, thus at peace
have thee-and tbs all would
have thee-and my wishes cease
Thine arms the cradle OF my woes
Loves sweet Dsrcotics round me fly,
And every breath thy lips disclose
Breaches in my heart lullaby
And worlds for me in each exist,
And oh ! the Joy each day imparts'
With blissful trembling thus to list
Unto our mutual thr0bbing hearts
In our loves silent night thus blessed
The world and time do we exclude
Intoxicated, dream and rest
In sweet oblivous solitude.

THE BRIDAL CHAMBER.
Glowing waxen tapers renbe,
Calmly sleeps the fairest maid
Under flowers, wreaths and spangles,
Gifts by fond affection laid.
With the little wreath Of myrtle

With strange unearhly brightness
Death ilumes her yisage fair.
Gentle tones play round the sleeper,
As Of holy angels wings,

Softly through the chsmbe. rings.

Allies and Enemies.

A soldier writes from the camp to Eng
land as follows:
Our soldiers have to deal in unknown lau-
guages, with French, Italians and Greeks and
numberless are the rows which spring up in
consequence. No pen, no painting, could give
the faintest idea of the state of the streets to-
wards evening, when the pickets begin their
march to clear the men off to their camps
The fraternity established between the French
and English troops becomes every day more
afectionate, and friendships are springing up,
all the closer, perhaps, for q squahble now and
then, which ends in the old redinte CRATIC amo-
riS.
A huge Highlander, last Monday, walked
through crowd of drunken Chasseurs, knock
ed them down like nine-pins, because one of
them had slapped his cheek, and was only just
stopped in time to prevent the affair becoming
serious by an officer, who happened to be pres
ent. Later in the day, a gigantic Irishman,
with his coatee off, his eyes standing out of his
head. and an oak paling in his hand, went
dancing through the principal market place,
and for some imaginary offence, commenced an
attack On Turks, French, and Greeks, indis-
criminately, whom he routed with signal dis
comiture, first breaking sword-bayonet which
a soldier drew to stop his vagaries he then
walked into cafe, where he broke up the con-
versation of the place very rudely, and finished
by running gauntlet through whole mob of
assailants, and getting off through gate into
the fields. In squabble, last week, a French
man ran a Turk through the body, and killed
him on the spot. The fellow has not been dis
covered.

Battle OF Baltimore.

September is notable month in our history,
and the ii til and 18th are notable days. On the
18th of Sept, 1914, McDonough defeated the
British squadron on Lake Champlain and Gen.
Macomb, with about 1900 regulars and 5000
militia, repulsed the attack on Plattsburg, of
Gen. ProvOsts grand army of $4,000 men,
with which he boasted he would march to New
York. Provost took advantage of the night
to retreat in the greatest haste. The next
day, Sept. 18th, 1914, the battle of Baltimore
was fought with the British expeditionary for
ces, which had returned from the sack of WASH
ington. On the 18th, the British feet, num-
bering about thirty sail, were seen approach
ing the fort below the city.
"At shutdown" says the Baltimore Telegraph
of the following morning, "thirty sail of squae-
rugged vessels were below-thrcc frigates seen
from the observatory between North and Spar
rows Point, two slOops of war and ten trans
ports within the bar, three frigates two miles
below at anchor, four frigates standing in
abreast of North Point, with three sail, sup
posed transports.
On the morning of the 18th, the enemy hav-
ing landed their forces, to the number Of from
eight to ten thousand men, advanced to attack
the city. They were met by the volunteers,
and after some skirmishing a battle ensued.-
The result was the flight of the British in
great confusion, leaving their ammunition af-
ter sustaining the loss Of their General and
400 men.
The attack on the fort was gallantly re-
PEELED, and the enemy's feet made all sail down
the river. This was the last attempt of the
British to gain laurels in that quarter.
1t may be also mentioned that Perry's vic
tory on Lake Erie Was won on the 10th of
September, 1914; on the 9th of September,
l847, the battle of Moline del Rey was fought,
and on the 18th the battle of Chepultepec may
be said to have commenced. The following
day, Chepultepec was carried by storm.-N.

It is understood In Washington, that Brit
din and Holland are to contend with us with
much more energy, for the commanding infu-
ence in connection with the foreign commerce
of Japan, than it was thought probable they
would essay, not long since. Nevertheless,
little apprehension exists here that they will
be able to rob US of the legitimate advantage
of our superior enterprise, as manifested in be-
ing first to induce Japan to become legiti-
mate portion of the commercial world. True
they have greater advantages in their superior
experience with Eastern commerce which will
be pushed to their utmost. The Government
have, however, doubtless long since taken
measures to profit by the good impressions
which we have already made in that quarter,
as manifested by Japan's treaty with u.s.
From various circumstances within our own
knowledge we can entertain no fears that our
merchants, manufacturers, artisans and ship
owners will fail to be the chief recipients of
the benefits to flow from the achievement of
our Government in opening the ports Of this
strange nation to the commerce Of the world.

OUTRAGEOUS INDIAN MURDER.-A lady,
from the neighborhood of Fort Riply, now in
st. Paul, brings information that the wife of
Rev. Mr.. Spencer, Missionary at Red Lake,
was murdered short time since by a war
party-of Sioux Indians. Mrs. Spencer was
sitting In her apartment. after dark, when she
was fired upon and killed instantly. She was
an estimab!e lady, who had resided several
years with her husband as missionary among
the Chippewas. Red Lake is entirely within
the Chippewa country, and the murderers were
no doubt war party Of Sioux, who were out
in quest of Chippewa scalps.
We have little hopes that the perpetrators
of this high-handed outrage will ever be look
ed after. We can only extend our sympathies
to the unfortunate relatives and numerous
friends of true Christian woman, who has
thus sacrificed her life for the holy cause which
she espoused in the early years of her career
on earth.-Minnesot,an.

How Emigrants are Treated.

A New York paper gives the following
picture Of the situation Of emigrants on tue
boats which run between New York and
Albany
There, on the forward deck OF that steam
boat shut off by a relentless grating from all
shelter, hospitality. or intercourse, except with
each other, is hukled together some scores or
hundreds of emigrants bound for the distant
West
Scores after scores Of fresh errigrants, reek-
i,y with the miasma of long confinement in the
s'..rage during an ocean passage, are pitched
npon them until the naked plank which they
at first revOlted at as beds are no longer at
i.inablc; they would gladly pay for the chance
To- stretch their weary limbs upon the clammy
deck, but there is not room for all even to sit
down, and the men must take turns in stala-
in. up through the night. For the women,
>,ac is generally made, so that they can sit
down and lean their children against them on
this side and that, smothering their unayoida-
BILE meanings so that the youngest and best
placed may snatch an hour or two Of troubled
sleep during some part of the long night, For
the inevitable sickness aud distress of many
there are no accommodations they must von,-
it as they can. Not even rough awning
costing, perhaps, fifty dOllars-is drawn over
them; but the autumn dews fall uninterrupted
upon mother and babe, sire and son; and when
the thunder storms and rain come on, they
have no resource but to huddle close together,
and shiver, and suffer-
1t is our deliberate judgment that no negro
trader in the South would permit cargo of
his human chattles to be carried for one single
night with as little regard to their health and
comfort, to say nothing of decency, as is regu-
larly evinced in the transportation of free white
emigrants (many of them American BORN from
this city to Albany. We believe it far below
the truth to estimate that three thousand lives
are annually sacrificed by the ravages of Diar-
rhea, Dysentery, Cholera, Rheumatism and
Fevers in consequence of this North Riverex-

MURDER OF EM1GRANrs IN KANsAs.-The
editor of the Democratic Platform, in his issue
of the 18th inst, says: .-
While in Kansas last week, we learned that
a party of ten emigrants visited the neighbor-
hood Of the Big Blue, for the purpose Of ma
king claims. The party divided half of them
travelling up that stream, while the other went
down. One of the parties were attacked by
the Pawnee Indians, and the entire body, five
in number, killed. We could not learn their
names, but learn they are from Missouri,

Amalgamation and Disorganization. !
We animadyerted few days since upon
the article Of some democratic" officials, in
igning call fer q fusion convention, to.
at Winena, on the 2Sth instant.
The object of that convention, as we have
it before Us over the signature Of the
democratic" land officer of that district,
who signed the call, is the nomination Of
WILLIAM ASHLEY JONES, the editor of pa
per of democratic pretensions, lately estab-
lished at Winona, the nephew Of GEoRcE
w. JONES, of Iowa, andthe plant tool, and
creature of the RICE and SCHUYLER swind-
ling railroad company.
We learn since, that disorganizins move
ments of simihr character are to be un-
dertaken throughout the Territory. In
one of the Northern Districts, the boiling
process has been fully adopted. A Demo
cratic Convention held at Sank Rapids,
Benton County, on the 18th of September,
nominated by an unanimous expression of
its members, JAMES BEATTY, Esq, IS the
Democratic candidate for the Legislature
Mr.. BEATTY is an old resident Of that dis
trict. of unquestionably good character as a
IL
the interests of Minnesota as of greater con-
sequence than those of chartered railroad
company, the managing men Of which are
bloated with wealth and tainted with ini-
guilty. For this offence against the interests
of the RICE, SCHUYLER and BILLINGS Rail-
road section of the Democracy, one Of their
agents, nominally Democrat, named S. B.
LOWRY, has bolted the choice of the party,
and announced himself as an independent
candidate.
The reason given by Mr., LOWRY for this
disorganizing action is the allowance made
to residents of districts who were not regu-
larry accredited delegates. to take seats and
vote in the Convention. The democrats of
that District who were not present at tho
Convention, will be surprised to learn the
fact that the course to which Mr.. LOWRY
takes exception, was one of his own sug-
gestion. The first man lacking regular
credentials admitted to the Benton Coun.
ty Democratic Convention was the Hon. S.
B. OIMsrEAD, and he was so admitted upon
the motion of Mr. S. B. LOWRY. The Con-
vention adopted the rule introduced and
sanctioned by Mr.. Lowry, and he now
makes it the excuse for boiling to nomi-
nation he was himself a party in making.
We believe the people Of that district have
a sufficient regard for fair, manly dealing,
to induce them to repudiate the pretensions
of the bolter, and support the claims of the
regular candidate.
