Presidential Aspirants on the Stump-Th
WRECK OF Politics and the Strivings OF Il,
DemagoSues.

tftsiUentiai AsparAnts ON the Stump-Vhs
WRECK OF Politics and the strivings OF the
D.mAgoSuss.
We give In another column the sayings Of
tboee Of the Presidential aspirants who are on
the stump endeavoring to catch the breath OF
popular opinion to wait them towards the White
House.
One of these, the speech Of Ex-Governor Sey-
mour, OF New York, delivered at ST. Paul, MID
nesota, is pretty little speech enough but there
is nothing in it. Trite subjects, that all the
world knows, are treated in commonplace
way; but there is a want of real breadth aud
depth in the views of Governor Seymour, show
ing that although he wishes to stand on the plat
form Of national man, he is far from being up
to the national standard. Another is the speech
OF Governor Chase, at Ssndusky, Ohio, in which
he runs over the gamut Of the anti slavery
trings in the old way, from bred Scott no to
ne re-opening Of the slave trade The third is q
'ynopas OF the speech delivered by Jefferson
DAVIS before the State Convention OF Mississippi.
Mr.. Davis belongs to that class of politicians
who aim to be considered as statesmen on sec
tional and local grounds, and who do not COM
prenepd that when the affairs of the whole
country are in question higher view OF
the national interests is necessary than
that taken by the jackson Ms,isapps,,.
He ranks in the same category with Seward
Wise, Douglas, Hunter, and all OF taat class Of
second rate politicians who believe that the
whole science OF ssatesmaaship lies in the art
Of pleasing Buncombe.

Woman Without Religion.

A man without religion is at best poor
reprobate, the football Of destiny, with no
tie linking him to infnity and to the won
drous eternity that is begun with him; but
woman without it is even worse-a flame
without heat, a rainbow without color, a
flower without perfume. A man may, in
some sort, tie his frail hopes and honors,
with weak shifting ground tackle, to bust
ness or to the world; but woman without
that anchor called Faith is a drift and a
wreck. A man may clumsily continue a
kind of moral responsibility out of his rela-
tons to mankind; but woman, in her COM
paratively isolated sphere, where affection,
and not purpose, is the controlling motive,
can find no basis for any system of right
action but that of spiritual faith. a man
may craze his thought and brain to truth
fulness in such poor harborage as Fame
and Reputation may stretch before him; but
a woman-where can she put her hope in
storms, if not in Heaven ? And what sweet
truthfulness. that abiding loye-tightening
them with the pleasant radiance, when the
worlds storms break like an army of smo-
king cannon--what can bestow it all, but a
holy soul tie to what is above the storms,
and to what is stronger than an army with
cannon? Who that has enjoyed the love
of a Christian mother but viii echo the

LOVE ME LAST.

Friend, whose smile has come to be
Very precious unto me
Though I know drank not first
Of your loves bright fountain burst,
Yet grieve not for the past,
So you only love me last
Other souls may find their joy
In the blind love of boy:
Give me that which years have tried,
Disciplined and purified;
Such as, Drawing storm and blast,
You will bring to me at last
There are brows more fair than mine
Eyes of more bewitching chime
Other hearts more fit, in truth,
For the passion of thy youth
But their transient empire past,
You will surely love me last!
Wing away your summer time
Find love in every cline;
Roam in liberty and light
l shall never stay your flight;
For know, when all is past,
You will come to me at last!
Change and futter, as you will,
I shall smile securely still
Patiently trust and wait,
Though you larry long and late:
Prize your spring till it be past
Only, only love me last

The Apples of New England.

Here are glimpses of a pleasant picture from
lie poem by Mrs. A. Denison:
The apples of New Englsnd!
How hang their loaded boughs,
Over the grey stone fences,
In reach of the dappled COWS;
Of every red-cheeked Baldwin,
Hath merry song to sing
Of some old moss-roofed cottage,
Where the farmer is king.
The Russets of New EugIandl
What ruddy fires they see,
Where the crack of the veiny walnut
And the crack of the pine agree
Where the herbs hang high in the chimney
And the cat purrs on the hearth,
And rollicking boys guess riddles
With many shout of mirth.
Oh the Pippins of New England!
What lovers smiles they see,
When their yellow coats, in letters,
Tell tales at the apple-bee;
What rosy cheeks at the quiltings
What kissing in husking time,
That soon lead off to the parsoD,
Or end in wedding chime.
o the apples of New England
They are famous in every land,
And sleep in silver baskets,
Or blush in a jeweled hand;
They swell In delicious dreaming
On beautiful crimson lip,
And q taste of nectared blisses
No lover has dared to sip

story of blind man, who, even under a

passionately loved; her voice was sweet and

and curing the disease, restored the husband
to sight, which he chiefly valued as it would
