SIGHT FOR BUCHANANITEs. We saw q
scene in the Central Depot yesterday morn
ing, that we think preached a more powerful
sermon than all the eloquence of the stump
or the Senate has yet produced Seated along
the wall, on bench, was family of thirteen,
father, mother, and eleven children, weary,
dirty, destitute and wretched beyond all
parallel in this prosperous city. At one end
was full-grown boy Of sixteen, without
shirt, his skin blue with cold, exposed, except
where scanty garments of thin and coarse
linen covered it. He had been sick, and was
wrapped in a coarse coverlet. Near him sat u
young woman, a sister, with her husband
She was bareheaded and hardly covered with
rags that had not touched water, apparently,
since they were made. A pale and puny baby
lay in her arms. Three or four little boys
sat next, wan-looking creatures, as white as
their little wool hats, except where the dirt
gave an appearance Of health to tho flesh.
They were ragged and shivering with cold,
and they didn't speak, nor cry so utterly
unlike the cheertulness and yivacity OF boys
were their silence and quietude, that it
made ones heart ache to see them. One of
them once pass d his hand caressingly over
the face Of the little baby which lay notion
less in its mothers lap, but there was no
smile or glmmer of affection in his pale face.
The mother was barehoaded unwashed and
pale as were al the iamiiy Sh'' lke her

i" 4 Word Before Election. -

A good article, though short one under
that title is found in Putnam's Monthly for
November, We wish all the intelligent
and wcll-to-do men, who say that they take
no interest in politics all who are so
" disgustod with the low tone of political
life that they never 60 to primary meetings
nor to tbs polls, would read it. " No man, -
says the writer, d" who comprehends the ma .
ture of our democratic life, can fail to per-
ceivc that the suffrage is the very breath of
our nostrils and if he neglect to exercise it,
he is so far forth guilty Of a capital moral
offence" Again, 4" The father of family
who should allow his servants to eat up his
substance, and squander the patrimony of his
chldren-thc man of business who should
never look into the conduct of his clerks I'M
til they had ruined him by fraud or cxtrava.
gance, would universally be reprobated as eli
ther very foolish or u very wicked man and
yet such Il man is not one whit more reckless
or more immoral than the citizen who enioys
the benignant right of suffrage and neglects
its use. =" While men, capable OF
forming lhteIllSehl opinions, ana capable oil
influencing the general mind, allow their alb
sorpton in business, their indolonce, or their
disregard of tho vital consequences Of politi-
cal action, to keep them from forming opin-
ions, and from expressing their opinions, by
the effective agency of the ballot-box, they
must expect to see the public stations occu-
pied by q degenerate class of statesmen by
persons even, who are not entitled to the name
Of statesmen at all, but are the merest schem-
ors and selfseeking traders in politics"

FATAL ACCIDENT from CAMruENE AT PnlLA-
DrLrnA.-On Saturday evening Mrs Moore
was in the act of filling a machine lamp
which was lighted, when one of the children
accidentally hit her arm, causing tho can
containing the fluid to upset. The fluid was
Immediately ignited, setting fire to Mrs
Moore's clothing as well as to that Of the
children playing about the room.
The alarm and excitement that ensued were
intense, and although the neighbors did all
in their power to extinguish the flames. five
children, and both Mr.. and Mrs Moore, were
dreadfully burned. One of the sufferers did
not belong to the family but had Just entered
the house on an errand, her parents living at
some distance. She ran out of the allev into
the lane, and threw herself down in the gut
ter, beneath the open fire plug, directly in
front Of the house. Notwithstanding this.
she was so dreadfully burned that she died
few hours afterwards in the adjoining house.
The other children, Emma NJ. Moore, aged
Q, and Rachel d. Moore, aged 4, died in tho
course Of the night.

At large meeting in Brooklyn n. Y ad-
dressed by Hon. Mr. Banks, in the course of
his remarks, he denied that the Buchanan
party is the old Democratic party of jackson
and Van Buren,. lie illustrated his position
by an anecdote. When a young man, he
knew Frenchman who would occ asionally
leave his work in the suburbs of Boston, and
60 into the centre of the city for the purpose
of seeing the strange sights. One day, when
he returned, he said in response to the usual
inquiry of what he had seen, that he saw
man going along the sidewalks wearing
neither hat, boots, coat, nor waistcoat. lie
had no horses or oxen, nor any wagon, and
yet he was crying charcoal - at the top of
his voice. Q.aughter.} 1t is just so with tho
Buchanan party, 1t has thrown aside every
garment and every attendant which belonged
to tho old Democratic party, and yet it goes
