Bright queen of beauty, golden-trcssed spring!
In the fair valleys of tho Southern land
Thou reignest most royaly. O., who shall sing
Thy fitting praise ? magnificent yet bland,
lovely and winning, yet serenely grand.
The Earth sends up a greeting to the skies
That answer back with smiles of peace and love,
While breath of flowers and songs of wild-birds
rise,
Natures pure offerings to the God above.
Is there q heart so sad it doth not beat
with rapture, when beneath thy coming feet,
From their brief sleep the blossoms spring once
more,
And on the breeze their balmy fragrance pour?
Yes there is one yon brokon-hearted boy,
For him the golden hours shall bring no joy.
In vain the tune(ul birds above him sing,
In vain the fragrant flowers around him wave;
How should he feel the gladness of the spring
While sitting by his hapless mothers grave?
Hope, peace, love, joy, all, allie buried there;
Why marvel at his measurless despair?
Hateful to him the mornings rosy light,
And untold horrors throng the awful night.
So drags Alphonso's life; how YEARLY
The sable hours like funeral trains) go by;
Days grow to weeks, ant weeks 10 monthS anu
years;
Ages of pain and bitterness and tears
Manhood has come, but manhood brings no JOY,
What manhood has the scorncd and stricken
slaveD
The world is dark TO him, as when a boy
lie knelt heart-broken by his mothers grave,
Among his fellow slaves he stood apart
None knew the thoughts that ranked in his heart;
Scornins to mingle with the thoughtless crew,
Who scarce their wrongs or degradations knew;
who laughed when fed, and spent their idle hours
In song, and dance, as if they trod on flowers.
Silent and gloomy at his task he wrought,
His proud soul swelling with u%nuttered thought,
But sometimes CLEANED a fire in his dark eye
Like lightning flashing from the midnight sky,
Red, sudden, awful; that precursor dread
OF the fierce tempest, soon to burst Ger head.

The Abolition Candidate in the 9Th

A most meagre, small and cfheminate Con-
vention of Abolitionists, assembled at the
State House, on Tuesday, the LIST inst, to
nominate candidate for Congress, for this,
the 9th Congressional District. On the 4th
ballot, JOHN CoBURN, Esq, of Indianapolis,
was nominated NesSrs. WILLIAM SHEETS,
REUBEN A. RILEY HoBATIo G. NEwcoMB,
JONATHAN HARVEY, DOUGLAS MAGUIRE,
JAMES RIcHEY, LUCAS BARBOUR, and HUGH
O'NEAL, were each voted for, and received
several votes on the various ballots. We
have no access at present to the proceedings,
therefore only give results instead Of details.
1t was a weak affair in its conception, and we
predict it will be equally weak in its conclu-
sion. We sincerely condole with Messrs.
SHEETS, RILEY and NEwCoMB, on their con-
tinued bal luck, and on this, another disap-
pontment. AS for the others, who did Lot
expect much, we feel less concern. They
may all thank their stars that they have es-
capped the trials and the defeat which will
overtake Mr.. CoBURN.

A Slight Demonstr ation-A Few Dem
oCIats in Sight.

On Monday last, late in the day, some Of
the Democrats of the city determined to
have Democratic rally in the evening, and
accordingly put up notices to that effect As
the sun went down, the cannon announced
the place of gathering at the Court House
yard. At this sudden summons the masses
began to assemble, and, in about half an
hour, a dense body of the bone and sinew Of
the city had congregated, for the purpose of
showing their devotion TO the Democracy,
to the Union, to law and order, and to swell
the column Of the supporters of BUCHANAN
and BREcKINRIDGE.
The assemblage continued to increase, and
soon grew to au immense crowd, dOubly as
large as any gathering which the city has
produced since the days of 1852.
The laboring men of the city, the real
voters, the stalwart mechanic and citizen, the
man of business, and the man of cool, dis
passionate judgment, came out to show that
they upheld and sustained Democratic men
and Democratic measures. 1t was a glorious
display for the "Old Liners" and sorry
sight for the Abohtionists 1t told the Flu
siOnists plainly that the masses of the people
were not with them, but positively against
them. 1t struck terror to their souls to such
an extent that many of them openly ex-
pressed their establishment. No Fusion
meeting, with all of their efforts to draw
crowds together, has shown even compare
tive scale of numbers, not even half way in
strength They were the men of influence,
of principle, and of vigorous action-iust
such as always carry elections when they try.
We are content that the Journal shall at
tempt to pass it over with a sheer, for we
well know, and the public also know that it
was gall and bitterness to them to see the
long and crowded files of the Democracy
which so spontaneously rallied at the short
call made upon them.
The immense crowd marched from the
Court House to the Pennsylvania Hotel, on
Washington street, when it was addressed

where they were well entertained by short
speech from Judge Wick, thence down
Illinois to the American House, where they
were calamity received by Gen. ELLIOTT, in
his usual stirring manner, from whence they
returned to Washington street, and after a
hold, vigorous, exciting and amusing short
speech from their peculiar favorite, R. j.

their homes, leaving their opponents the
painful reflection that the power of Adolf
tionism had, departed and will be crushed ont

The Topeka Constitution put TO an
open shame in the House Ofits Fri ends.
The Topeka mob constitution of Kansas
has been defeated, for the present, in the
House, by close vote. The Bill was amend
ed so as to restore the Missouri Compromise,
and then both the bill ard the amendment
fell together. Thus has the Fusion House of
Representatives defeated the hopes of GREE
Leg and his followers, in their action on these
two great Kansas measures. They are just
where they started some months ago, with
ont having done anything for the benefit of

professions of restoring the Missouri Com
promise or of admitting Kansas into the
