Eiitors Union and American: II
wrote y,u yesterday that the know nothings
aid black republicans Ct Penusy lvsnia which fused
in the State election and UNUSED after it was over
had re fused again at Harrisburg amid great confa-
sion Their trucking has called down upon them
. FIRE, hot and heavy, from the entire democratic
line until they are vainly attempting to escape
by falsely charging back at us for similar offences.
But the Chairman of Il Democratic Central Com
mittee Of the State, in communication to one Of
the city papers this morning, meets them thus:
"We stand on the democratic platform and I'M
der the victorious flag of Buchanan and Breckin-
ridge We make no terms. and have made no
terms with faction or fansticism. We resort to no
fusion. We have but one electoral ticket in the
field And while we invite the honest friends of
Willard Fillmore to our support, it is boldly and
publicly done, because we believe that the true in
terests of all conservative men, and the sacred
principles of the constitution, can alone be pro-
tected and preserved by the democratic party its
candidates and its creed"
Gallant democracy of Pennsy lVanisl They are
as true as steel-true to the constitution and the
Union.
The re action now going on in this and sdjoin-
ing States, corresponds in extent to the great dis
appointment of the opposition. That extent is
conclusively shown by comparison of their own
predictions previous to the late State elections
with the results already sscertained. Only eight
days before the elections in Pennsylvania, Indiana
and Ohio. the Boston Atlas which is the chief or
gan of the opposition in New England, claimed a
probable opposition majority of Jorty.seven mem
bers Of Congress in these three States. Those
claims and the actual results stand together as fol-
lows:

down and rubbed all over, on table or bench
with sumo fac salt, black pepper, aad cloves

saltand pepper and half an ounce Of cloves are
sufficient for thirty pounds of meat, but the OK

go wrong if he rubs every part of the whole sur

And thought ye that his lot was hard,
And did you not thank God
That you and yours were not condemned

Amid the new-mown hay;
Or proudly aim with vigorous arm
His task as best they may.

The fealhery people clap their wings,
And lead their youngling train,
Perchancc the hoary grandsirc's eye
The glowing scene SURVEYS,
And brelthes blessing on his FACE,
Or guides the evening praise.

And cheers their patient toll.

MY HEART is SAD.

My heart Is sad the summer breeze
That wanders softly by,
But wakes the mournlul memories
That deep within it lie;
Like some remembered voice, they breath
Across my troubled mind,
a lonely echo of the past,
Forever in it shrinel.
My heart is sad would could find,
Beside liie's rugged stream,
One quiet spot where might rest,
IL only but to dream
OF those sweet hopes, when life to inc
Was one bright summer day
The earth is still as fair, but ah
Those hopes have passed away
And left nc like n wanlerer lone
Amid some desert wild;
OH is there not relief, cry,
For earth's worn, weary child
Yes, Faith replies, sad heart, be still;
Beyond the starry dome
The white-wing'd angels smiling wait
To lead the wanderer home.
