An old man sits in high-backed chair,
Before an open door,
While the sun Of y sammcr's afternoon
Falls hot across the hoor;
And the drowsy tick uf pn suc;ent clock
Has no,ched the hour Of four.
A breeze blows in, and breeze blows out.
From the scented summer air;
And i. futtcrs now on his wrinkied brow,
And now it lifts his hair;
And ,hs lcadcn lid of his eye drops down,
And he sleeps in his high-backed chair.
The old usu sleeps, and in sleep he dream.
His acad droop, on his breast,
His bands relax their feeble hold,
And fall to his lap in rest;
The old man sleeps, and in sleep he dreams
And in dreams again is blest.
The years uuroll their fearful scroll;
He is = child again;
A mothers tone rs in his ear,
And drifts across his BRAIN
He chases gaudy butterflies
Par down the rolling plain.

And gathers eglantine,
And holds the golden buttereups
Beneath his sisters chin;
And angles in the meadow brook
With b,nt and naked pin.

and by tie hrimming pool,
And sigh escapes his parting Nlr,

And he wishes it never was nine o'eioci.
And the morning never was full.

With the toss Of ieaiy bough;
And the boy isa white, haired nn"n again,

Mr.. ED1roR - Among the number OF
treaeberous and disgracefnl acts which
have characterized the public and private
course Of John S. Garlic, from the earli-
est day of his manhood to the present
time. deem it to be my duty as voter
in this District which he proposes to rePe
resent in the next Congress ofthe United
States, to give you a brief statement of
the course pursued by that gentleman in
the City of Washington, about the last
of January or first of February last. as /
have it from good authority.
Mr.. Garlilein confidential converse
ton with Hon. ohm fletcher, of Va.5 and
several other gentlemenof the Democrats
ic school, declared himself to bera edevos.
ted friend to Henry A. Wise, spoke ofllis
ability and integrity in thehighest terms.
said he would do all he could to aid him
in his election. !. He further said that the.
people of Western Virginia owed Mr.. Wise
a debt of gratitude for the manly and pa
tatriotic manner in which he had hereto.
fore defended their rights and interests.
and he felt confident that theyswould pay
that debt in this campaign, or words to
that amount. Mr.! Garlic, on that occa-
sion. expressed great zeal and sympathy
for the success of the Democratic State
ticket, whereupon those Democratic gen
tIemen whom he was consoling upon this
subject were induced to give full utter
apce to their views and feelings, especial
y their hopes. and fears, in relation TO the
election of Mr.. Wise, not dreaming for a
moment that theyshad Judas in their
Camp but on the following day they as
certained to their great surprise and ex-
IRENE disgust that Mr.. Garlic on the same
night after having thus expressed himself
to them, associated himself with Know
Nothing council of that city, to which or
der he doubtless belonged before he
went to Washington and there made
known to the council of Know -Nothings
what had been communicated to him BY
those Democratic gentlemen, few hours
before. - PA .-
1t will be remembered that this is the
same John S. Garlic who alone accused
the Hon c. S. Lewis of running with the
hare and holding with the hound. Mr..
Garlic is'a peculiarly suitable standard
bearer for the dark lantern party, and l
rejoice to know that the Democrats of
Virginia are relieved of such cumberers Of
the ground as him and Nat Claiborne.
Should Mr.. Garlic enquire for my name,
you will please give it.
A DEMOCRAT.

PROCEEDINGS OF THE PENNSYLVANIA STATE
GRAND COUNCIL.
We copy from the Lancaster Examiner
and Herald of the It'll inst, the wing or
gan Of that county. the following extracts
from the proceedings of the Know Moth
ing Grand Council, recently held in Lan>
caster city.
"A(ter the formal opening Of the Coun.
Gil, the credentials Of delegates were read,
and with one or two exceptions approved
and the delegates recognized and admit
ted to seats.
"The first business in order was the
consideration Of the minutes Of the Pitts
burg convention, which, after an anima-
ted discussion, characterized by the most
violent personal ordinations, were ap.
proved by vote Of 48 to 16, four dele
gates refusing to vote.
son motion of Brother McCalmout. the
Council then went into committee of the
whole, on the state Of the order in Penns
sylvaDia. Bronson, Of Claremont, in the
chair.
"President Tiffany arose and delivered
rather an eloquent but tart and unpaIata-
bic address. He argued no success to the
order, but rather its rapid declcnsiOn and
ultimate downfall, from the fact that not
one tenth Of the subordinate councils in
the State were there represented. That
even those that were represented were
distracted by Discussions and want Of har-
mony, which BODIED no good. He had,
since the last general election, visited ma
ny parts Of the State, and truth and JUS
tice compelled him to say that the order
was fast sinking by its own weight Of
corruption. The acts of the present LIE
gislature were characterized By such de-
gree of stupidity, venality, and reckl. ss-
ness, that the only wonder with him was
that the people had tolerated it as long as
they have done. He hoped, however,
that now. with all these things before
them, the rock on which they will surely
split full in view, that they would betake
themselves TO the proper remedy in time
that all would pass out of that hall more
firmly resolved than ever to be true to the
order and their oaths."
After the Professor had taken his seat,
delegates from Harrisburg. Chester, Phil.
adelPhia, and other places, gave an ac-
count Of the order in their several districts.
All had the same story. the outsiders
knew too much-the novelty of the thing
was gone, and the members were grow.
ing FESTIVE under the guidance Of the
Grand Council. The mass of their con-
stituency had no confidence in their lead.
ers-and the cry of "Sam, and Americans
must rule America" had lost its charm,
and with the charm its potency There
must be new features introduced-more
degrees, in which, if it be possible, more
awful and binding oaths and obligations
must be administered. Ifthis be not done,
the only alternative is an open organiza-
ton

Know-Nothinsism Abolitionized,

AOOlltlOnIZe0,
We desire to call the. attention of those
who believe or assert that Know Nothing
ism has no affinity for Abolitionism, to
the fact IT, at the Grand Council of New
York was recently convened "for the pur-
pose of doing something that might tell on
the Virginia elections" The plan pro
posed for accomplishing this object. was
the passage of a set Of national resoIu~
tons; but, Notwithstanding their earnest
wish to aid their brethren in Virginia,
their opposition to slavery triumphed over
the "minor consideration, and the pro-
posed national resolutions were voted
down by large majority. The New York
Times, a leading whig Know Nothing pa
per of that city, in speaking of this mat
ter, says:
Under the immediate inspiration Of
OK President Fillmore and other d;stin-
guished gentlemen, The effort TO place the
Order upon platform which should meet
the views of the South was renewed; mem
bers who had proved ''recreant' to allie
ged obligations on this subject, were ex-
pelIed-new tests were devised and fresh
oaths imposed-and national platform
was presented for action and adoption at
Syracuse. But, as will have been seen
from the letters of our correspondent, tn e
effort failed. Tile plotform eoas quietly6ut
en1phaticaliy laid aside. Tile representa-
tires Of The KaoaO, Nothing Order IN this
Slate refuse to render the movement su6ordi,
nate or tributary in ANY WAY to the AGGREs-
sEvE PURPOSES and projects Of tile Slave
pOOer.
1.-The truth is the repeal Of the Mi SOU
ri Compromise, the events attending the
recent elections in Kansa9, and the move
ments in various quarters which demon
straLe the determination Of the slave States
TO extend the political power Of slavery
indefinitely, have aroused feeling in this
State and throughout the North which
will not be thwarted or stifed. If those
eOho are sincere IN desiring fresh guards
against dangers dpprehended from foreign
influence 1Oould secure that result, they must
not permit themselves to be arrayed IN oppo-
Sition to Mut popular sentiment a0hich de-

John S. CarliIe's Speech on Wedncs-
day Last.

Oay Last
The Know Nothing candidate for Con-
gres addressed the people of this place
on last Wednesday. One would Judge
from the character of his remarks that he
had forgotten that he has been acting
with the Democratic party recently, and
and that he imagined himself always to
have been consistent opponent OF the
party whose principles he still claims to
advocate. We have heard none Of the
old line Wings abuse it half so much as
he did MIR. Garlic on Wednesday last
He said the Democratic party was corrupt,
and its principles consisted of the loaves
and fishes, and labored hard to attach the
stigma Of abolitionism to it. It has been
said that " ono renegade is worse than
ten Turks" and the proverb is verified in
MIR. Carllle's case. He, however, pays
himself but poor compliment, when he
says in one breath that the Democratic
party is CORRUPT, and in the next that he
is good Democrat.
Those acquainted with the facts in the
case, do not pretend to hold the Demo-
cratic party responsible for the election of
Hale, Sumner, Chase, Wade and Rantoul
to the U. S. Senate. They were elected
by Wings and Abolitionists, with the assis-
lance Of a few free~soil Democrats who
voted for them, while large majority of
the party, supported their regularly no.
minated candidates, against these gentle
men, and who, we believe, were in every
instance, sound, national men. As we'll
might the Democratic party be charged
with Know-Nothingism, because a few
of its members have joined that order, as
to charge it with abolitionism because
there are isolated cases in some few of its
members have supported that cause
We have heard Mr.. Garlic himself elo-
quently defend the Democratic party
against the very charge he is now making.
But he was not the candidate of the op-
position, then!
