BY REV. ]. W. CARHART.

BY REV. }. W. CARHART.
In lone and dreary chamber,
Where the sunlight seldom shines,
And the cobwebs thickly gather,
For a curtain Ger the blinds;
Where no hand of kindred fingers
To sustain the aching head,
Nor flowers plucked by gentle fingers
Fragrance round the dying shed.
See that form, once full of vigor,
Clad in beauty's rich attire,
Now in sickness weakly writhing-
Soon in sorrow to expire.
See that ghastly hand uplifted,
Toward the home for which he sighs;
Hear him call to God" and "MotherW
Hear him, ere he faints and dies.
Raven locks, SO oft, SO gently
Pressed by loving hands in prayer,
Hang disheveled Ger his forehead
None to smooth that vagrant hair
From his cheek the flush has faded
Melted seems that gentle eye
Snowy white his brow no longer
Parched his skin golden dye.
Gentle evening throws her curtain
Ger the landscape, far and near
Nature seems to hush her anthems
AS if human signs to hear;
Death is lingering at the portal,
With his Keen and icy dart,
Waiting with intent to thrustit
To the young mans lonely heart.
Midnight's sable pail is hanging
Round the world in awful gloom
Deaths grim form advances sternly,
Dressing mortals for the tomb;
Enters he that lonely chamber,
Purposed ne'er with prey to part
Lays his chilling, iron fingers
On his victims bleeding heart.
To die alone, methiaks is fearful;
Let me die with Jesus near; ...
May mothers hand uphold me-
May her voice salute my ear
May her whispers soothe my spirit,
As she talks of home on high
On her breast my head be pillowed
As in Jesus arms l die.
Such were wishes family whispered
By the lips Of him We sing,
Till his spirit, freed from sorrow,
Spread for home its trembling wing.
Mornings golden gates are open,
Strangers bear the form away
Haste to hide the young, the nobly
Meath the cold and silent clay.
An aged female form is bending
Ger the open, greedy tomb,
Listening for the coming footsteps,
Startling mornings early gloom;
Soon she bends above the coffin,
While the tears unceasing flow
"Let me kiss him for his mother!
Says in accents sweet and low.
Heaven bless thee-angel woman!
Thou dost of life's shadows know;
Heaven bless sthee-angel-mother!
Save thee from life's farther woe.
May thy sons ne'er die forsaken!
May thy sunshine e'er increase,
And in dying may it cheer thee
May thy latest hours be peace!

FslloV-citisens Of he eons Of DsRsl6:
It Is we'll known TO a great rnany of you that
since my return from the last Legislature, have
repeatedly been asked the question if would
be candidate for re-eleciiOn, to which invaris-
bly, replied that would not. Some time sgO cons
ventiOn was spoken Of, and preliminary conven"
tlOn held to appoint delegates 70 convention to
be held on the 3lst of March, 1859. After the ap-
Peinimsat Of delegates was often spteited by The
delegates aad others 10 fer my nsme to G before
the convention. replied ic them that | would
much prefer not to take The nomu alton, ihatit would
be greatly against ny interest bat that should not
feel free decline ii if eEdeE,d nus, and up TO the
day Of the convention ii vas generally thought
doubtful whether l would accept or mi, audi WAS
waited on ty some Of the delegation 90 the dsy Of Tie
convention to know If wcuIl suffer ny name 10 be
used in the conssatOr and replied iolhem lba, they
could do as they pleased abou' it-use il or rot
they saw proper. The next ress heard fromthe
convention was from crmmittee consisting Of
| three delegates, Col. JAMES TUBB Il HAYS. and
BIRD WrtaoTH, informing me Of my unanimous
nomination as candidate for the Legislature for
the county of DeKalb. ] appeared before the con-
vention and accepted the nomination, not suspect
ing but what the whole proceeding had gORe off
harmoniously and knew no better till this morning,
| april LIST, 1887
! now learn that james Tubb, one of the above
committee, and father Of John B. Tubb, one of the
asprsns, and DR.. Chsrles Sehurer, one Of the del,
egAtes and brotherin>aWt to John B. TuSb, say that
! [ am not the nominee Of said convention; that
| in the preliminary convention | received
| the last bsllOt 10 votes, and John D. Tubb 16,
and that the clerk fraudulsntly reported the
the vote in my favor, giving me one majority,
when Tubb Bss really nominated by majority Of
three votes. How these things are can't tell. am
well acquainted with the clerk, Mr.. Smith, also with
Messrs. Tubb and schurer, and regard them all as
men Of high standing and influence, and, therefore,
feel that it is due yOu myself and B Tubb, that
recall nyaeceptance of the nomination till said cues
ton is settled if Mr. Tubb has been cheated out Of
the nomination he ought certainly be restored to bis
rights; and if not, the thiHg ought to be invess
tigsted, have an anti Convention candidate in
the field who claims TO be Democrat ready to seize
upon everything said against The fairness of Conven-
tiOns. Therefore recall my acceptance till as
certain whether or not Messrs Tubb and Sehurer,
make their charges good, as will not be the cand-
date Of minority of Convention if know it.

CEsIRhL AMERICAN AFFAIRs-The agent of the
associated press teesraphsd the following from this
city yesterday:
" From all that can be learned, il is not unsafe
to say that if the sements relative to Sir William
Gore 0useleys alleged action in Nicaragua are COR.
rect, be has violated not only his instructions
but the solemn understanding between the British
Government and that of the United States. If the
facts are stated, the President will, it is said
Notwithstanding the refusal of Congress to grant
him extraordinary powers TO protect the rights
and property of citizens Of the United Sta,es exact
conformity with whatever may have been the writ
ten stipualstiORs between the two Governments res
pecting Sir Ouseley's mission"
In this connection we may add that the Dispatch
es received from Gen. Lamar, our Minister to Mica
rsgus, by the late mall are understood to state that
the general impression was that the 0useey Zeldon
treaty had not been ratified; and that no setion
had been taken concerning the Cass-Irisari treaty
Gen. Lamar is further understood to express his
conviction that the Nicarsguan Government do not
intend ratifying it, 1t will be perceived therefore,
that the rumored ratification Of the 0useley treaty
is not confirmed by any official communication to
the authorities here and is stated that the Nea-
ragusn Minister, DR.. Jsrez is not in receipt of any
such intelligence The report, it appears, rests
solely on the assertion Of a newspaper correspon,
dent, but other circumstances said to have trans

which is not more than q fourth, at most. The pre-
sent far, has been so fine for the grOWth
Of the grasses SIS fully to make up to the farmer we
spprehend, for his losses from the cause mentioned
above. In ten years we have seen no such promise
on the first of April of heavy yield Of grasses,
perhaps more important to the balance sheet of most
farmers Immediately around Washington, than the
wheat crop.
The prospect for heavy yield Of the orchards in
this region too, is finer than ever before in
membrsnce. The pesch trees are everywhere load
ed with blosm and the apple trees are putting forth
their beautiful leaves with unwoDted vigor 1t does
heart good to perceive such signs of bOuntiful
ipensation from Providence, upon whom the sue
cess Of every mans labor depends.
In fortnight, ifthe present weather holds, the
limbs Of the fine forests around the Federal Metro
