om the Sonthesn Literary MeSse,.se.. THE QUIET MBER. Lay him gently to his rest Fold bis pale hands on his breast;
 From his brow ohl how cold and marble fair Softly part the tangled hair:
 Look upon him nowi As a weary child he lies, With the quiet, dreamless eyes, Der which the lashes darkly sweep, Aad On his lip the quiet smile--- The souls adien to earthly strife, And on his face the deep repose
 We never saw in life. Peaceful be his rest and deep.
 Let him sleep. No tears for him--he needs them not Along life's drear and toilseme road, Firmly his manly footsteps trode, Striving to bear it's weary lot, With such pride upon his brow, With such pain within his heart, Ths frmaess of the manly will
 Yelling the secret smart Oh! it is we'll the strife is OCT, That thus so peacefully he lies, uuheediug now the bitter words, The cold, unpitying eyes. Fold his mantle o'er his breast Peaceful be his sleep and blest.
 Let him rest. No sigh to breathe above his bier, No tear to stain the marble brow Only with tender, plying love, Only with faith that looks above, We gaze upon him now. No thought of tcil and suffering past; But joy to think the task Is done, The heavy cross at last laid down, The cscwa of glory won. Oh bear him gently to his rest Oh gently heap the howery sod; And leave his body to the dust,
 His spirit to his God,

Hon. DANIEL Il. SIcKLEs. The Wash

concerning this member of Congress:
1t is quite true that there is very lit
tie disposition manifested by any of the
representatives to establish intimate rela-
tons with Mr. Sickles, but justice to the
man himself requires that should state
that he seems to invite no such relations.
Every day, about fifteen minutes past
twelve, when debate has begun, he walks
in quietly from the side door, and takes
his seat on one of the sofas on the west
crn side of the House, where, resting
his head upon his gloved hand, he re-
mains seated. taking no part in the dis
cusssion. voting, when called npon, in a
low voice. He dresses in exquisite
taste, and has cultivated large pair of
brown wbiskers. He seems conscious
that public opinion is greatly against him,
and although his bearing is full of his
characteristic ease and coplness, it is sin
gularly retiring and unobstrusive. Sit
ting in the gallery on Wednesday and
Thursday, noticed several of the lead
ing members of the House going up to
him. shaking hands with him, and pass

After the appointment of various COM

they were addressed for short time by
Capt BOWIE, who, in his usual grace
full style, impressed upon them the me-
cessity of such an organization, for the
protection Of their homes and fresides,
in these times of excitement, and when
we do not know what day may bring
forth, and earnestly advising every man
in the company to act soberly and with
determination in upholding the laws of
his country against all opposition, wheth-

of his address the speaker was loudly
cheercd, and the meeting adjourned until
the Oath instant.
We are pleased to learn that there are
several other companies being formed in
our county, and we understand it is the
intention to form one in each district,
and several meetings have already been
held for this purpose in various parts Of
the county. We hope our friends will
come up to the good work, and that old
Montgomery will not be behind her sis
ter counties in this movement, but will
in this, as in other things, stand at the
head Of the column.

WINTER. For the past few days we
have been very sensibly reminded that
old Winter is again upon US, by the chill
ling blasts of rude Boreas. We have
had thus far a long term of very beauti-
full weather since the fall set in, and we
hope our friends in thu country have all
been able to secure their crops, and are
now ready for snow and blow. AS the
Holydays are upon us. we know of moth
ting that would add more to the pleasure
of them than good snow, SO that we
may be enabled once more to hear the
merry gingle of the sleigb-bells and the
joyous laugh of youth as they glide over
the most pure and spotless mantle with
which Nature ever clothed old mother
Earth.

as to the man who should receive the

DESTROYS each Democrat may be to have
his individual choice gratified, one thing
must be kept in mind by all the mem

nominees of the Charleston Convention
must receive their united and vigorous
support. That convention is the umpire
which must decide the question. 1t will

representing all the States of the Union,
and will determine and decide the i'm
portant trust conided to it, with an eye
sihgle to the success of our time-honored
principles and the ascendency Of the De-

Importance of the island to England and

which arms were taken some four years

PUBLICATION or THE LAWS. One Of
the first aud most important duties Of
the next Legislature will be to order the
publication of the laws which may be en-
acted, in the newspapers throughout the
State. The wisdom and propriety of the
measure has been acknowledged by al
most every Legislature for many years
past, but action upon it has always been
postponed until the close Of the session
when in the hustle and confusion. the
matter was laid over for "Me want Of
time" The bungling and imperfect
manner in which the laws of Maryland
for the past few years have been printed
and bound up has rendered early action
necessary on this important subject, and
it is 10 be hoped that action will NOT
again be delayed ..forthe rant IF timer
If the people of Maryland are expected
to obey the laws they shonld first be
made acquainted with them The only
way in which that object can be accom-
plished is by publishing them in the
newspapers Of the State, for it is impos-
siblc for the people "a know and under
stand them in any other way.
We conceive it to be the duty of the
press therefore, to urge the Legislature
TO meet the wants aud necessities Of the
people by ordering the publication of
the laws at the earliest day possible.

RELIoIoUs AGITATION IN HUNGARY
A letter from Vienna announces meet
ing of the representatives, of the Calvin
lists beyond the Thesis, at the town of
Mskoley, notwithstanding ministerial
prohibition. Several Roman Catholics,
priests and laymen, accepted invitations
to be present.
The proceedings were interrupted by
the arrival Of commissary, who notified
the assembly to dispense without delay,
but they refused to recognize his author
ity because he was not in uniform. In
censed at this. he retired, threatening to
bring an armed force and break up the
conventicle. He did not return, how
ever, and the assembly went on deliber-
ately to discuss the Imperial edict of the
LIST of September, and finished by petit
tioDing his majesty to suspend it, and to
place the Protestant church in Hungary
in the same position as it was before the
year 1913. \ vast crowd assembled
round the house in which the convent
was held, but the public peace was not
disturbed, as no troops made their APP
pearance. In order that government
should clearly understand that the Ro-
man Catholics in Hungary make com
mon cause with Professionals, several in
a rental members of the two confessions
dined together at Miscoley. During the
repast the Catholic priests drank to the
Protestant clergy, and the latter did not
fail to return the compliment.
