Six more electoral votes than is sufficient
to elect him.
There is every reason that our friends
should feel encouraged. Both factions who
are arrayed against us, are afflicted with
irreconcilable divisions, which will result in
more or less weakening of their strength.
On the other hand, our ranks are closing
up in every section of the country. DiViS-
ions are being healed, and minor differences
being reconciled. All the augurieS are fa-
vorable that conservatism will achieve a
glorious triumph in November. Let our
friends then enter the contest ignoring all
idea of defeat With just cause, stout
hearts, and vigilant and untiring exertion,
we WILL succeed.

At the late Virginia American Cenven-

Hon. Mr.. STUART, Mr.. Fillmore's former
Secretary of the Interior, addressed the
Convention. During his speech he advert

The Nebraska Bill and the seventh Sec
ton of the. merIcRn Platform.

The Nashville Union and American speak
ing of the seventh section of the American
platform said-"H usry nearly copies the
loords of the Kansas Ad'-it copies the
principle Of the AT"
The Richmond Enquirer comparing the
portions of each which refer to the slave
~ question, says-.'Ls not the meaning of
these sentences identical? In truth, the drti-
Gle in the Amerioan platform is obviously a
plagiarism from The KaHsas-Nebraska 6ia.D
And yet both Of these journals have Ia
bored strenuously to prove that the Amer
lean platform ignored" the slavery ques-
ton, while they have been equally loud and
earnest in proclaiming that the Nebraska
bill was the test of Democratic soundness
on the slavery question, the indispensable
touch-stone of orthodoxy. Is not COM

THouGHrs ON IMMORTALITY When we look
back on the days of childhood and sunny youth
when we call to mind the friends OF former
years-those that are scattered far and near,
and those who have gone down to the silent
grave when we think of the few now living,
whose love is twined with our very heart-strngs,
but from whom we are separated by cireum-
stances beyond our control--what intense and
almost painful longings arise in us for a reunion
in land of bloom and beauty, to part no more!
So fervent are these desires to reunite with the
loved aud lost, and those from whom we are
separated by time and space, that we at times
become inscnsble to allprcsent joys. The very
soul pines and pants to see Che loved face to
face to hear their gentle voices thrill our
hearts, as in .by-gone days, and to mingle our
joys aud sorrows with theirs.
Whence these lougings for this reunion in a
land of bliss? Spring they up to be blighted
in their bloom-or did our kind Father in heav-
en- plant these germs of immortal bliss, with the
intentonof satisfying them to their full extent
Would he permit such pure desires, such holy
hopes, to mock us? No, brothers, sisters, loved
ones, let us believe that the time will come
when every pure aud holy aspiration viii be
realized. The bIissful hope can never harm us,
even if it fail l.; bat will elevate our thoughts,
purify our affections, and guide US happily on.
! ward and upward, as we journey along through
! this vale Of tears.

LTrCHFIELD, THURSDAY, APRIL "a, 1856.

Dioou SusHe0 lrom the Smooth PAIN tnat came
in contact with the fingefnails. Not word
was spoken, not sound broke the deep stiffness
OF the chamber, but the indistinct and oppress-
i've breathing of the dying man. l thought it
grew fainter and slower, and bent down to
place my finger on the wrist, and to listen more
intently but the old man waved me HerceIy,
jealousy away.
Touch him not" he said, "for he is dead!"
And thought, indeed, that it was 50; for
even as he spoke, the faint respiration suddenly
ceased, and the pallor of an everlasting uneon-
sciousness crept slowly over the still features
But in another moment, saw that life was not
yet extinct The eyes again partly Enclosed in
the same dreamy way as before, and an indis-
cribable radiance for an instant lit up the pale,
handsome face--handsome even then, but with
an unearthly beauty 81,
"God y the colorless lips muttered, "God
there is God !" and smile, whose utter
serenity | have never seen equalled flickered
around the mouth. Then the shadow deepened,
fell, and he expired. 1t seemed as though the
soul had been half freed, and, returning. gave
evidence of that eternity which it but partially
had entered
woman's voice, sobbing, at last broke the
dreary silence
The old man rose, and approaching his dead
sons wife, said feebly:
Esther, be comtorted God is over all"
She drew her hand from his clasp with ges-
ture of unequvocal adherence
Comfort - she echoed, with great defiant
flash of her black eyes comfort you preach
to ME of comfort hypocrite y She Kissed the
word from between her closed teeth, with start
ling, indignant energy 1T is ali clear to me
now. Who was it plotted and schemed to
bring US together? Who tempted him into
marriage where there was no love on his side
none. none, o my God--but for money? An
swcr NE that"
Her dark hair had become disentangled of
fastening, and now fell in wild, confused grace,
over her bare shoulders. Her white appraised
arms, gllttered in the bright light OF the lamps,
the scarlet ornaments floating from the sleeves,
falling over them in vivid contrast. Never shall
| forget the impression created by that indig-
nant appeal, and the tragic, excited beauty, of
this injured woman. All this WAS many years
ago, yet never recall that Sabbath night with
out a shudder Frequent as are terrible or
touching scenes in the life of physician, I re-
member none that own power SO as to unman
me, as the memory of this And the sequel
was no less sad. Within a year another grave
was made for the poor, deceived wife. On the
death Of her husband, she sank into stupor
from which nothing could arouse her, and which
terminated at last in rapid consumption. 1t is
strange that should so well recolect the day
she died. 1t is as new in my mind as ycster-
day. White, freshly -falen snow lay ON the
ground. 1t had come early that year, and
many leaves were still hanging crimsoncd on
their bourbS The trees were lnaded wit h lirhf
feecy fragments Of snow, ameag which these
brjlliantly-dyed leaves CLEANED cut in the sun
shine like blood on Il woman's fair face.

Facts in Human Life.

The whole number Of languages spoken in the
world amounts to 1904 --5s7 in Europe 500
in Asia, 276 in Africa, and 1864 in America.
The inhabitants ofthe globe profess more than
1000 ffcreut religions, The number Of men
is about equal to the number of women. The
average of human life is about SO years. One
quarter die previous to the age OF seven years;
one half before reaching II and those who
pass this age enjoy felicity refused to one half
the human species. To every 1000 persons on
" one reaches 100 years of life to every 100
only six reach the age of 65 a; and not more
than one in 500 lives to so years of age. There
are on earth 100000, 900 inhabitants and
of these 333 1913, 1873 die every year, 81 1874
every day, 1880 every hour, aud so every min.
ute, or one every second. These losses are
about balanced by an equal number of births.
The married are longer lived than the single,
and above all those who observe u sober and
Industrious conduct Tall men live longer than
short ones Women have more chances of life
in their favor previous to being fifty years OF
age than men have, but fewer afterwards. The
number of marriages is in proportion of IS to
every 1000 individuals. Marriages are more
frequently after the equinoxes ; that is, during
the months of June and December. Those
born in the spring are generally more robust
than others. Births and deaths are generally
more frequently by night than by day. The
number of men capable of bearing arms is cal
culated at one fourth Of the population, though
in many countries it is less.
