Earth would indeed a Heaven be.
By FINLEY

By FINLEY JOHNSON.
Earth would indeed a heaven be
or perfect bliss and love
sPartaking of the happiness
OF Gods own home above;
If men would but obey that law
Which bids them g love each other,
And with compassion look upon
The frailties of brother.
If We would but be mercifnl
TO those who err and sin;
Few. few, indeed would be the souls
Dark vice could ever win;
For there's no heart however rude,
Within this worlds domain,
That will not yield to gentle words,
And feel-to yield is gain.
Then never let us cast reproach
Upon a human heart;
Ifit in dark temptations hour
From virtue should depars5
For all have sinned-not ong1 pure,
1t is thy lot and mine;
To err is human-to forgive,
Is Godlikc and divine.
They who forgive a brothers. faults,
Are Drawer far than those
Who wish to battle midst the ranks
Of their opposing foes;
And if we all would but forgive,
As God forgives above;
This earth would then a heaven be
Of perfect bliss and love.

The Fireside.

f -
When the s~now-hakes softly rattle
On the darkened window pane,
And The night winds moan and murmur
In a wild and fitful strain
o, how welcome is the cheerful,
Brightly burning, rudy light,
Glowing from the evening Preside,
Glowing, sparkling, warm and bright.
How the mellow beams are dancing
On the ceiling in the hall;
Fen within the hearts dark corners
With a gentle glance they fall,
And in the clear and pleasant radiance,
As in waves of gold it plays;
Melts the soul that's filed with sadness,
Lights the eye with radiant rays.
Loved ones meet around the Preside,
Through the dreary winter eve,
Whilst the storm without is widest,
Tales of other days to weave,
Songs that to the heart are dearest,
Breathed upon tho hallowed air,
Voices gay in mirth are mingled,
Household words are sweetest there.
How the aged and the weary
Look back to the happy hearth,
BY whose merry light they started,
Ere they tasted aught but mirth,
Though the glow, has long been faded,
Brighter than of yore it burns,
When the spirit worn with wandering,
To that cherished vision turns.
Then when falling snow-i flakes rattle
On the darkened window pane,
Let us gather round the Preside,
Headless Of the nightwind's reign,
And when Life's cold winter cometh,
Mid the darkness and the storm,
Wen again, in Memery's chamber.
Meet around the old Preside.

STATEMENT OF wM. JAMES
MURDERER of ISAAC JUNE.

On Tuesday morning, tho 18th day Of
May, 1858, WILLIAM JAMES Of Townsend
township, Sandusky county, went to the
house Of ISAAC JUNE, Of the same township,
and while there inflicted wounds upon JuNE
Of such nature that ho died on the third
day thereafter. JAMES was Immediately
arrested, brought to Fremont, and placed in
the Jail Of Sandusky county, where he now
is awaiting his trial, which will take place
in July next. JAMES is in good health and
spirits, acknowledges that he killed JUNE,
says ho was justified in SO doing, and thinks
no jury will convict him of murder; but says
if they do he is ready to die upon the gal
lows, now his enemy is dead. The state.
meut below was written by JAMES and Civ.
en- to us on Monday morning, the l4th, fol
publication. In it he says he has given o
true account Of this sad affair. How near
it will accord with the evidence produced
on his trial, remains to be seen; there being
ing but one other eye witness Of the scene

Buchanan and Douglas.

A Washington letter to the Times dated
tho lst says:
The rupture between the President and
Judge Douglas has been rendered more du-
rablc by recent occurrences. A number of
very extreme Southern men, not vet pre-.
pared to break with the Northern Democ-
racy, waited upon the President last week,
and represented to him that they could not
afford to drive him into an alliance with tho
Republicans, or to permit him to be crushed
by them. 1t was, therefore, necessary to
the cause of the South that Mr.. Douglas
should be returned to tho Senate, and that
event might depend upon the patronage of
the Administration. Mr.. Buchanan instant
ly betrayed strong and vndictive feeling
He declared that ho would not stay his
hand; that it was no longer desirable to
keep terms with Douglas; that he had failed
the Democracy on a critical occasion, and
was no more to be trusted by it than John
p. Hale, and that ho should proceed to turn
out Office all his followers whom ho could
reach. He, therefore, resumed the work
which ho had suspended in March, and i'm
mediately removed three of the most effec-
tive and able friends of Mr.. Douglas as a
Senatorial and Presidential candidate in tho
Northwest.

DECLINE AND FALL OF THE DEm-
OCHATIC PARTY.

OCBATIC PARTY.
From the moment the leaders of the dem
ocratic party formed an alliance, offensive
and defensive, with the slave drivers Of the
south, may be dated its demoralization and
decay. Once in possession of the party
machinery, the southern politicians have
rendered it impossible for any man to reach
the presidential chair, or occupy n seat in
the cabinet, or go upon foreign mission,
who does not first pledge himself, body and
soul, to their service. Indeed this system
has been carried out till no man can hold
the pettiest postmastership in che remotest
corner Of western state, who does not
swear by national democracy, that is the
national rights of slavery. The funda-
mental principles of liberty, as set forth by
Jefferson and his compeers, are whistled
down the wind as idle theories of time
gone by. The national democracy of the
south, to which the national democracy of
the north must assent assert that a
rounded aristocracy" is an essential clo-
ment of human society. In othor words,
some must be masters and some slaves to
make human society perfect. These ma
tional democrats openly declare on the
floor of congress, that the "greasy mechan-
les and stupid farmers of tho north are
slaves, and slaves too not so we'll off as those
who work on southern plantations" under
the lash. These national democrats de-
mand the re-opening of the slave trade
In short the national democracy of tho
north must follow where these southern
Shareholders lead, or the odor of nationality
is gone forever. How far will the mass of
tho northern democracy follow these south
ern leaders,? Successive dcvelopemcnts of
this evil progress, have caused frequent Sc
cessions of those who could no farther follow
a democracy stripped of every democratic
principle. One would think the time must
be near at hand when the democratic mass
es at the north, would reform the party OF
leave it. In either case the fall of that par
ty which processes democracy but breaches
and practices the meanest dcspotism, is fore
doomed and certain.

Elmer, Of Buffalo, from the effects of tho
excessive and cruel drive the day before,
the Tribune says:
His death was occasioned by palpitation
of the heart. 1t is said by those who saw
him, that every pulsation Of the heart could
be seen and heard, as it pounded like a
sledge hammer against his side. Tho no.
bio brute was in intense agony all night,
but death came TO his relief at o'clock in
the morning. The fact was kept secret un-
til about noon to give his cruel owner timo

Mr.. Harris, of Illinois--His Appearance in
the House.
Hon 5. Colfax, 10 letter to his con-
stituents, published in the South Bend
Register, says:
''Mr. Harris of Illinois is far gone in
consumption, and has been bleeding from
the lungs in his sick room ever since the
last encounter in the House, on the out
rageous conduct of the Kansas Select
Committee, where he acted as the anti
Lecompton leader. When he entered
the House. leaning on the arm OF his col
league, Morris, Il thrill ran through the
House. lie could have been spared, but
refused, and declared that, if it cost him
his life, he should be in his seat to vote
his utter condemnation of this shameless
iniquity. When one who has been for
years a Hebrew of the Hebrews in HE de-
votion to his party, Of which he has been
an active leader, thus perils his life to re-
cord his hostility to this tyranny, ought
not the people, who love justice and hate
wrong, to initiate his example, aud emu
late his patriotism, which rises higher
than party, aud is willing to give his life
as dying protest against it.
We think that Mr.. Harris, who has GER
tainly shown himself true man, did no
more than his duty in risking his life for
the defeat of the Lecompton fraud.
If it is mems duty to put their lives
freely in peril to resist the iuyasions Of
foreign powers, it is equally their duty to
incur the same peril to save II portion ot
our people from being crushed beneath the
tyranicai heel OF oar own government.
