Our Irish and German Citizens.

1t has been the boast Of the Black Re- |
German and Irish voters are in their favor,
and will support Fremont. The very prop |
osition, coming from that party is a double
insult to cur citizens of foreign birth. First,
because the idea advanced by the Black Re-
publican party, in claiming the support of
this class of our citizens. shows that they
consider the foreign born citizen on par
with the negro of the south And Secondly,
because great maj rity of the Black Re-
publican party have waged an unrelenting
war upon them-"war TO the knife and knife

them down, destroy their churches and burn

BE KIND WHEN YOU CAN.
BY ELIZA COOK.


Be kind when you can, though the kindness be but
little,
IT'S small letters make up the philosopher
scrolls
The crystal of Happiness, vivid and brittle,
Can seldom be cut into very large bowls.
IT'S atoms that dwell in the measureless noun
tain,
IT'S moments that sum up the ~century,s flight
IT'S drops that unite in Niagara's fountain,
IT'S rays, single rays, form The harvest-moon
light.
Stone by stone builds the temple that rises il
glory,
Inch by inch grows the child till maturity,
primo;
The jewels So famous in bright Eastern story,
Have been nursed, tint by tint, in the bosom o.
Time.
IT'S grains make the desert-sheet trackless ant
spreading,
IT'S but petals that deck every blossom-twinet
spray;
There are leaves, only leaves, where the forest il
shedding
Ills gloom till the!density shuts out the day.
A word or a glance, which We give without think
ing"
May shadow or tighten some sensitive breast
And a draught from the well-springs is wine in tn,
drinking,
If quaifed from the brim that Affection ha
blest.
Then be kind when you can in the smallest of du
ties,
Don't wait for the larger expressions of Love
For the heart depends less for its joys, and it
beauties,
On the flight of the Eagle, than the COO Of tn
Dove.

enough been trying such forces, for ages, with no
good result.

much money is expended to support it, which
might be probably employed in e~nlarging the
minds OF the inhabitants, by teaching them improv-
eimodes OF agriculture, useful sciences, and a broad.
comprehensive system of universal morality based
on reverence for God.and 'oye Of man! How this
