Major Mace.

While at Lafayette one day this week we
were informed by prominent Black
Republican, (an anti-Wilson man) that
Major Mace had abandoned that party and
taken his old position with the Democracy
We are inclined to believe that this is true,
from the fact that he has more than once
stated that he left our party on the Kansas
question and nothing else; that question
having been settled, with the certainty
that Kansas will be admitted as free
State, he sees no further occasion forretain-
ing his connection with pie-bald party.
-CrGwtordsvMe Review.
And the course Of Major Mace will be
followed by hundreds of others who under
the false cry of pro-slavery, have been in
duced to abandon the Democracy. The
honest yeomanry of Indiana cannot long be
deceived into, the support the Republican
party, and thereby into the doctrine ol
negro equality.
Let it be borne in mind that in every
State and Territory in this Union, in
which the Republican party has had pow
er, tho right to vote. has either been con.
fered on the negro, or an effort made to
that effect. Let it also be remembered
that the Constitution framed by the Repub-
licansjof, Kansas, and which they now de.
clare they will present to Congress and ask
admission under, gives to negroes and
mulatttoes the right to vote. Voters oI

1t is aprevailing idea among some people, that
because editors, in referring to themselves the
word 'wc' they consider they amount to two or
three ordinary men. This is , mistake. Editors
are naturally very modest and unassumiag class
indeed, remarkably SO. The word 'we' merely
includes the editor and tie devil The custom
originated with Faust, the founder of the distin-
guished profession. The superstitious people of
his day supposed him to be leagued with the devil.
Faust, to encourage the idea, which rendered him
a person of so much Importance, and commanded
such high respect, was accustomed to indte him
self in his leaders and grocery pufs' as 'we,'
which included himself and highly distinguished
assistant, the Prince of darkness. In modern
times, his Internal Highncss has doubtless found
the printing business poor investment, and with
the exception of the interest he still retains in tho

BY JENNY A. STONE


BY JENNY a. STONE
Once again my steps have wandered
Round my dear and cherished home;
And the loved ones gentle voices -
Softly on my ears have come.
Tones of love and joy and gladness,
All unmixed with pain or grief,
o, how could we think of sadness,
When our JOY must be so brief.
Clouded were glorious heavens,
Yet light was shining round,
Frightening, gladdening every object
On that loved and hallowed ground.
Words may never tell my feelings,
When my home first met my sight
That dear spot which fancy ever
Bathes in floods of golden light.
Then my mothers arms were round me,
And the tears were falling fast; .n .
Tears of joy-for to her vision
Was recalled the glorious past;
When bene ath our roof-trec gathered
All our gladstone, happy band:
When from out our joyous circle
There was missed no cherished hand.
Then, like some far-distant music,
Softly borne upon the breeze:
Like the sweet and merry warbling
Of the birds amid the trees:
Like the low and ssftened Ginning
OF bell at evenings hour,
Came the music of young voices
Ger my hear with magic power.
Once again have departed
From that scene of earthly bliss;
But no words can ever picture
Howl its peaceful joysI miss
How my heart is ever turning
To that dearly cherished home;
Or, how fondly will its memory
O'er my bosom ever come.
Should part with it forever,
Deep blue seas between us roll:
Still my heart would there be turning,
Like the magnet to the pole;
And home voices softly whispering
Words of never dying love,
On this earth will e'er be with me,
And be with me, too, above.
When the twilight shades have gathered
Round about the listening Garth,
Or, when thoughtfuIness comes Ger nc
Even in the hours of niirth-
Then home visions cluster round me,
And home voices whisper near.
Peaceful words in tones of music,
Words the wandercr loves to hear.
o, if ever from my bosom
Thanks for mercies shown arise
o, if incense e'er is waited
From this heart to yonder skies
IT'S when thoughts of home surround me,
And when those sweet voices come;
o, its then thank Thee, Father,
Thank thee for my precious home.
