A New kEy.-"Aunty,' said little
girl. Il believe have found new key
to unlock peoples hearts, and make
them so willing: Tor yon know, aunty,
God took my father and my mother. and
they want people to be kind to their
poor little daughter
''What is the key asked aunty.
1t is only one little word-guess
WHAT But Aunty was no gucssar
1T is please said the child, "Aunty.
it is please II l ask one of the great
girls in school. please show me my par-
sing lesson ? she says, % yes and helps
me, If | ask, Sarah. please do this for
me J no matter, she'll take her hands
out of the suds. III ask uncle, please.

Republican State Convention e.

Wherever tllc people scleCt tHeiT own
rulers and have a voice in their own af-
fairs. From the time the American peo-
pie becam2 an Independent nation. parties
began to form. holding different opinions
as to pending measures and the true theo-
ry of republic: government. They
are necessary to the political health of
the people, and the right dret ton and
safety of the government.
Since the carly years of the republic
there has existed in this countr, no party
whose principles and purposes have been
more in harmony with the Declaration
of Independence and the Constitution of
the United stat ;, than those of the
present Republican party. The causes
which produced the American Revolu-
tion and led TO the establishment of our
Ma ional Ind opendcnce. arc identical with
those which led to the formatian of the
present Republican party-resis.ance to
tyranny and the preservation of Liberty
from the attacks of its INSCRIPTIONS
foes. Shall an ovcrbcarng and aggres-
sivc oligarchy, with its feet on the necks
of four MILLIONS of SLAVES. retain its
present possessions of the national gov
ernmcnt, or shall democratic Liberty be
its vitaizing and controlling force This
is the question which now presses on the
American people for decision.
The advances and outrages of the Slave
Power, for series of years. have irrita
ted extremely the citizens of the Free
States, and I'D to repeated Efforts to
form party that should grappIc with it
successfully at the bal lot box and in the
halls of Congress. But not until the
stupendous political crime and shameful
violation of national faith, of breaking
down the Missouri Compromise and at
tempting to force Slavery into free ter
ritory, by arms, were the ties of for
mer political organization snapped
asunder, and general movement made
among the people to organize new
party, for the preservation Of Liberty
and the restoration Of the national gov
crnment to the policy and aims Of its
founders.
In the brief period of two or three
