from Leavenworth of 26th says the con-
stitutional convention adjourned from
Minneola and met at Leavepworth on the
evening Of 25th. Charges of corruption
were pre.elent. Lane resigned the Pres
idency Of the convention. The people
are satisfied with this demonstration Of
the Free State feeling, and prefer Presi
dent not identified with the Extremists.
1t is supposed the session Of the convcn-
ton will be short, and that the Topeka
Constitution will be adopted, with some
notifications. Lane pledged himself to
resign before he could be elected Presi-
dent of the convention.
The Extremists are becoming moderate
in their views.

LADIES CARRYING PISTOLS. The
New Orleans True Delta says there is a
movement going on in that city, having
for its object the introduction of the Gus
tom of ladies carrying re-arms-small
pistols such as are known as vestpoeket pis-
tols and which can be slowed, without in
cumbrance in the pocket of the fair shoot
er's dress, in order to protect themselves
from violence and insult. Society must
be in sad state in New Ofleans if this
statement is true.

THE MEDIUM CREATURE IN EXIST
ENCE.-In a recent number Of the Home
.JoUrRai New York, n. Z. Willis, while
reviewing Gosse's excellent "Treatise on
Life in its Lower, Intermediate and Higher
Forms" says: If dozen people were
asked, for the tirst time, the question,
What is the animal Of middiing size in
existence probably no two would give
the same answer, If the persons were
unslentifc,. the guesses would vary be-
tween man and mouse nearer ap-
proach to the truth would at once suggest
familiarity with the microscope. The
animal actually occupying this class posi-
ton, we learn from the book before us,
is the common house fly of one third of
on inch in length the extremes being
one hundred feet ard one twelve thousand
part of an inch We lords Of creation
are decidedly among its giants"

the face When you ask them to go with
you for the repeal of the Missouri restric--

And now, worst of all, when you ask
them to fasten upon their fellow men, in

Hs5- The difference between a Republic
and Monarchy, is thus pointed out
by some body: "Pile all the people into
a pyramid, with the President as an apex
aud you have a symbol of a Republic
You can shake tho president, but YOU
can't move the united force of the people
Invert the pyramid, with king for it,
base, and have the symbol of a monarchy
Tip up the king and the whole struc-
turc falls into confusion"

w hen we our trends ana homes nad leit
With sorrowing heart and fearful eye,
We gave tn embrace and long goodbye
For we were bound for the land of the
west,
Where sinks the sun when he goes to rest
BY stage coach, steamboat, and railway
We hasted on, by night and day,
Until we thought the goal was won,
And our journeyings nearly done
But just imagine our vexation,
When we arrived at Paw Paw Station,
And learned that the place of our destina
tion,
Was thirty miles from all creation"
Wcll-then we pocketed our rage,
And packed ourselves close in stage.
And through the mud, and over stumps
Mid twi,ches, jerks, knocks and bumps,
With troubles 'nough to Sc. one raving,
We came Ger the way that leads to South
Haven
The road was long-the journey rough,
And the yarns they told us, rere Rather
tough.
At Brcedsyiiie Hotel we stopped few
moments,
But long enough for very comments.
We asked for a drink of cold water,
And this We received from Mother Eve 5
daughter,
But we have become a degenerate race,
For not one line of beauty was seen in her
face,
With a scowl on her brow, and q flash in
her eye,
She stood there and viewed us all "cap a
pie"
She raised her broad hand half way to her
nose,
And said you're going down to the
mouth | suppose"
DWELL then you'll be sorry-thc place
can't be beat"
d" You'll be tired to death, when you get
there-and have nothing to eat"
i" You'll be sick every one with that terri
bic plague"
"For every one has there-the Fever and
Ague."
With this bright picture of the future
in view,
We left our kind hostess, and babe her
adieu
But ever and anon, as we came on our
way,
Her vision would rise up before US and
say
In language, cxprcssive-but words un-
couth,
"0h yes' you're going down to the
mouth"
Andwhen at last our rough ride was ended,
Over such ways as ought to be mcnded,
And we had arrived at the Haven South,
We did feel rather " down at the mouth.
For every joint was rackcd with pain,
And we sore puzzled our poor brain,
To know how we'd get again from down
TO the mouth.
On every side we cast our eye,
Were sand and stumps, and trees so high,
And then we'd heave a doleful sigh,
We're "down at the mouth"
But soon we met with cheerful faces,
As Ger were seen in other places,
And friends so constant, true and kind,
With genius, wit and sense refined,
And blessed with gifts of heart and mind,
Wen bid good bye to all our sighs,
Indulge no more in "heory cries."
For here are those we dearly prize,
"Down to the mouth"
The sand no longer blinds our eyes,
The stumps no more like spcetres rise,
The scales have taken their demise,
And now we sec with vision clear,
The beauty Natures lavished here,
On every side, both far and near
The forest-with its towering trees,
The river-rippling in the breeze,
The lake-with its broad bosom blue
Reflects the sky-an image true,
OF vast Eternity.
We've food for body and for mind,
And all may taste who feel inclined,
And those who slander cur fair fine,
May come with us, and share the same
No animosties we hold
'Gainst those who oft, have falschood told,
But will forgive and be good friends,
If they will only make amends
