SWrcily SAUNDERS dearest Sallie-
Lovely SaIlic Bell.
She Mas pure. for Nature made her
Smiling as the sunny noon,
Faircr iir than all the flowers
BlushnS Ger her early tomb.
Years have sped since lust we parted,

To wander brukrn-hcartc1,
She. tn joys unSpcakablc.
Other forms around me hover,
Other voices greet mine ear,
And sighing winds arc whiSp ring over
Sallic lost and dear.
In lonely quiet valley
In shady dell,
Swectly SlumbcrS dearest Sallic-
Lovely Sallie Bell.
She was pure, Tor Nature made her
Smiling us the sunny noon,
Farrr far than ul the flowers
BluShing o'rr her early tomb.

The Democratic not a Pro-Slavery Party.

That there are some well.ncaning people
who really believe that the Democratic party
is a prO.slavcry party, is not at all impossible,
after the intcrminab!c diatribcs inflicted on
the public by sectional agitators. Their in
ccssant din and dirctul lamentations over the
Ethiopian race, has no doubt lead many an
honest, but weak brother, cStray They have
constantly asSaicd Democratic Adminstra-
tons aS being tncturcd with pro-slavcry ideas
and propagandism, and in the name of the
Christian religion, "thc Great Jehovah and
the Continental Congress" have unjuSliliably
warned the country to beware of our crgani
zation, and to have no connection with it,
Among the weak and timid, the Miss Nancics
of the times, doubtless, to n considerable ex.
tent, they have succeeded. The Juror, how
ever, we think, has had its day. 1t has reach
cd the eliminating point From this time
forward, we arc encouraged to hope and be-
lievc, that better and brighter day is dawn
ing upon the country. Tho present state of
sectional excitement cannot last the nation
al sentiment and patriotism Of the Union have
been aroused, and they will crush out all
these acrimonious and art-burning issues.
Facts and reasons arc finding their way to
the minds Of candid men, and must sway
their judgment. The Albany Atlas, the able

ORPHAN AsYLux-Since the founding OF
the Cleveland Orphan Asylum, the Board Of
Managers, as Is known to the public, have made
yearly spring colleecliOn. distric;iDg the city,
and calling as far as practicable upon the resi-
dents in the different streets, these donations
being entirely made by ladies.
When the time arrived the presant year fol
making the spring collection, it was deemed
advisable to postpone it until the fall, as the
ladies' felt a delieacy in begging again so sOor
after the special effort in aid of the asylum last
year.
A recent contribution in one of the churche
(Mr Bittenger's) for the Orphan Asylum
amounting to $50, led to the following unani
nous decision of the Board at their last meet
ing, viz; That the usual yearly collection fol
the present year be made in the different
churches, and that thei.several clergymen be
requested, at their earliest convenience, 10 aP-
peal to their congregations in behalf of the
Asylum, and appoint Sabbath when this col
lection shall be made.
All ladies who feel interested in this good
cause, and who expect yearly call for their
one dollar subscription, will please to remem-
Der to carry it with them, or send it to church
on the day appointed for the collection, and for
fear the amount contributed may fall short OF
that which might be raised by calling from
house to house, the gentlemen may be induced
to throw in their mite, and thus secure cheer
ing sum to aid in defraying expenses for the
winter.
By order Of the Board,

MEANxEss.-The position of the peDtIemaI

MEANNEss--The position of the gentleman
who Presides over the Cleveland Library Asso-
eiatioH in the capacity Of Librarian is not On en-.
viable one by any means. We have made up
our mind, and we state the conclusion we have
arrived at eOnfdentiaIly, that any man, woman
or child, who will at the present low state of the
finances Of that institution, hang around the
room, read the papers aud books, and not pay,
would choke musquitO until it was black in
the face for running across a sugar barrel
We will extend these remarks few lines in say
ing that person who will do all of this and lot
offer TO record himself as member of the insti-
tuition, is doubly mean.

ANOTHER ARRIVAL

ST.. JOHNS, n. F., Aug !.
A steamer from Europe passed Cape Race about
noon yesterday, and handed to a fisherman four
copies OF the Liverpool Northern Times from the
2Oth TO the 23d July inclusive. Her name was not
ascertained, and the customary dispatch from our
agent at Liverpool having failed to come 10 hand,
we are unable TO say what vessel il was. The pro-
liability however,i is that it was the royal mail steam
ship Persia, from Liverpool 24th-
From the papers at hand the following summary
has been made up
The commercial adyices are necessarily very i'm
perfect but the political news will be found Of the
highest interest embracing as it does news Of the
recspture of GWalior by the English, and the tax
ing Of Chinese Fort mounting l35 guns, at the
mouth Of the Pehio.
INDIA AND CHINA-An official telegraph to the
Foreign Onhce received on the 22d Of July, states
that the steamer Canada arrived at Suez on the
to the 25th Gallee TO the 29th Of June, Hong Kong
TO the 7th of June, and Alden to the llth OF July.
The forces under Sir Hugh Rose had re-taken
Gwalior after severe fight Of four hours, The
remainder of the India news is OF an unimportant
description.
The English news is generally unimpOrtant.
PRANcE-The Moniteur ridicules the idea OF
French invasion of England.
The Paris conference closes on the 18th Of
August
La Presse says Prince Napolson again complains
Of the severity Of the treatment Of the press in the
French Colonies.
The epidemic at Bergasse was diminishing.
