Isle Of Beauty.

Shades Of evening, close not Ger US,
Leave our lonely bark awhile;
Morn, alas! will not restore US
Yonder's dim and distant isle.
Still my fancy can discover
Sunny spots where friends may dwell
Darker shadows round me hover.

Whilst the waves are round me breaking
AS pace the deck along.
And mine eyes are vainlv seeking
Some greer. spot to rest upon
Through the mist that floats above us,
Family sounds the vesper bell.
Like voice from those who love us.
Breathing family, fare thee we'll!
IT'S the hour when happy faces
Smile around the taper bright;
Who will fill our vacant places?
Who will sing our songs tonight?
What would l not give to wander
Where my old companions dwell;
Absence makes the heart grow fonder-

The Differences between
France and Austria.

The war-ike reports from the other side
Of the Atlantic cannot be set down as mere

DINA on the other, would seen. to not on
" real, but imminent. According To
the view taken by the London Times,
France has gone SO far in support OF sar-
DINA. and is so pledged to sustain her, as
10 put it in the power of that nation to
bring or a war any time. just as Turkey
brouph, on the Crimaan war in spite OF the
earnest wishes and efforts of her allie TO
the contrary. Should revolt arise Ia one
Of the Papal provinces now occupied oy
the Austrian troops. and should Sardinia
seize that occasion to intervene, she might
by single precipitant movement place
France in such a situation that war with
Austria could not be avoided. The river
Ticiuo separates an Austrian from Sar'
dinian army. and the first shot hred De-
tween them might bring on long and
bloody struggle.
AS set, however. the differences between
France and Austris. though sufficiently
grave, have no: gone beyond the POSSIBLE

%If he denies the proof of intoxica-
ton, the names Of our informants are at
his service at any time.--Repu6lican jan
uary 18th.
We deny that he was ever so informed
by any decent man, and new call on him
for the names of his informants.-Demo-
erat. Feb, l7M.
But to bring the matter TO focus and
prevent further prevarication on your
part, we now say that we were informed
by two respectable and reliable individ-
uals, that you got drunk on the day that
French's Mill was destroyed by fire. Re-
publican, FEB 24th.
1t is unnecessary to say word In re-
gard to the above. 1t has never been de-
MED that Mattingly was not so informed.
He was so informed. His informant al
lowed it would be "a good thing TOR the
Republican and the Republican Parfy!"
to make this charge, publicly, and as Mat
tingly was hired to bark at everything his
masters set him on, with true canine in
stinct, he has been bowling over it ever
since, and doubtless will continue bowling
until his employers tell him well done.
thou good and faithful servant" The
united efforts of the Republicans to injure
the repatriation of tho Democrat by call
ing US a drunkard, has most signally fail
cd, as abundance of evidence proves.
Mattingly refuses to give MS the names
OF his informants after daring US to call
for them, insists that his word be taken as
evidence of the truth Of his statement!
We would believe tie Devil as soon as
Mattingly.

~ Mattingly is still anxious to secure
ee publication of the Letter List. The
amount of trouble he has had about this
one small item Of public printing. is truly
astonishing. On two or three occasions
he has filed statements OF the extent OIL
his circulation, but being grossly ignorant
Of the law authorizing and regulating the
the publication of the list. has invariably
filed them at the wrong time, and Of course
they amounted to netting. just as they
would had they been fled at any other
time. We proposed to the Post Master,
that he should give Mattingly the list, to
see how it would tickle him; but he, know
ing that We we're entitled to it, brought it
TO our office for publication. Two weeks
ago The Post Master sent up to ascertain
the number Of copies We circulated within
range Of delivery of the Post Office at this
place, stating that Mattingly had again
made application for the list. We sent
back word that we cared nothing about 1t,
and that ii he thought we were not emit
lied to it for the same reason that he had
given 1t to US heretofore. to give to him.
Each list is published once. at the rate
of one cent for each name, which would
amount to twenty cents per square--6fty
cents being the usual price--not including
about square at the commencement and
close of the list.
Were it not that the P. o. Department
carries our exchanges free of charge, We
would have nothing to do with the publ
cation Of the list. But SO long as those
having the letting of the list choose to
give it TO us. we will publish it.
About a year ago. Mattingiy made a
great effort to get this advertising; he
failed. but said he would be fast enough"
for the boys next year. What's the eY.
cuse now? Wouldn't your friends sub
scribe for enough extra copies to make
your list as large as ours?
The P. N. ought to give Mat,ingly the
list on the Same principle that person
would give child lump Of sugar--just
to keep him from crying.

Congressional Intervention

In the U. s. Senate, on the o2nd ult.,
a debate tool. place between the more prom
inent Democratic members of that body,
relative TO Congressional Intervention in
territorial matters, for the protection of
slave property. If the speeches could be
published in full. they would no doubt be
interesting 10 politicians generally; but as
this cannot be done, a brief synopsis OF
the positions assumed by different Sena-
tors. will suffice for the present.
Senator Douglas stated his position, plac.
ing himself upon the Democratic Platform
adopted at Cincinnati, in June. 1856. sta
ting that he was uncompromisingly oppos-
ed to any doctrine, for the government OF
the territories, at variance with that enun-
ciated in that Platform; that no Democrat
ic candidate can carry one State OF the
North. except on the principles of the
Cincinnati Platform, rs construed by Mr.
Buchanan when he accepted the nomina-
ton.
Mr.. Davis, of Mississippi, replied to
Douglas, positively denying that he right.
ly understood tie doctrines and obliga-
tichs of the Democratic party.
Mr.. Pugh. of Ohio, in the course Of
some remarks on the same subject, said
the question had been asked by Southern
Senator Brown, of Mississippi, if North
ern Democrats would vote for Congress
ional Intervention to protect slavery from
local Legislation in the territories. He re-
piled that they would not; that Democratic
doctrine was non intervention in the affairs
of State or Territory.
1t will be remembered that the Wash.
ington Union originated dogma which j,
called Democracy, but which has been
spurned BY nine-tenths of the Democracy
of the nation. The Union labored long
and industriously to establish the doctrine
that Congress has tbs power, and should
exercise 1t, to protect slavery in the terri.
tories, and to prohibit any local Legislation
on the subject. This is, without exception
the most detestable doctrine that has beer
promulgated from a respectable source
since the times of the "alien and seditior
laws" and exists only in the minds Of s
few whose zeal for the cause of the slave
holder has overbalanced their discretion
and love of justice. 1t strikes at the
foundation Of the main principle on which
our government is predicated. But we
have no fears that any such doctrine viii
ever be engrafted into the Democratic
creed. The people are opposed to any
such usurpation of power.
