sREcK1NR1DaE ON THE STUMP.

Mr. Breckenridge addressed large audience
at Lexington, ky., Wednesday. His speech
was very lengthy. He said he appeared before
his fellow citizens to repel certain accusations
against himself personally, and to show that
the principles on which he stood are the princi-
pies both Of the constitution and the Union.
Anonymous writers and wondering orators had
told the people that he was a disunionist and
traitor He desired to deny as wholly untrue
the charges that he had intrigued for the pres
idency, and challenged contradiction. 1t was
said he was not regularly nominated, and that
an eminent citizen of Hi: .ois was regularly
nominated. He could only say that the con-
vention which met in the Front street theater,
Baltimore, was devoid in his opinion, not only
of the spirit of Justice but of the forms regu-
latng? The gentleman whom it presented never
received the vote required by the rules of the
democratic organization. Whole states we're
excluded and disiranchised, not TO speak of in
divduals. The most fragrant acts of injustice
were prepetrated for the purpose of forcing
particular dogma upon the democratic organ
ization, and the gentleman who is the represen-
tative of that dogma is the representative also
of principles repuguant alike to reason and the
constitution. He stated as his doctrine and
platform the equal right of all sections in the
common territories, the absolute power of each
new state to settle the question of freedom or
slavery in its constitution, and hands off the
whole subject by the federal government, except
for one or two protective purposes. He stated
that during the debate pending the passage of
the Kansas Nebraska bill, it was enunciated by
Mr.. Douglas that the question of power by a
territory to exclude slavery was one for judicial
settlement, all agreeing to abide by the decision
rendered. Mr.. Breckenridge then quoted the
bred Scott decision in support of his position,
and the platform on which he stood.
Mr. Breckenridge next denied that he signed
petition for the pardon of John Brown. He
defended himself from various charges and as
portions affecting his past and present political
course, quoting from several newspapers and
speeches to sustain his statements.
Mr.. b continued at great length. supporting
his position and that of his party, and was fire.
quently appauded. His remarks will fill near
ly five columns.

A GREAT RIVER FROM LITTLE RILL.-A
Welsh clergyman asked little girl for the text
of his last sermon. The child gave no answer
she only wept. He ascertained that she had
no Bible in which to look for the text. And
this led him to inquire whether her parents and
neghbors had a Bible: and this led to that
meeting in London, in 1904, of few devoted
Christians, to devise means to supply the poor
in Wales with the Bible, the grand issue of
which was the formation of the British and
Foreign Bible Society," society which has al
ready distributed more than 100000 copies
of the Bible, its issues now reaching nearly l.
100000 annually. And this, in turn, led to the
formation of the American Bible Society, and
to the whole beautiful cluster of sister institu-
tions throughout the world, which are so many
trees of life, scattering the golden fruits of i'm
mortality among all nations of the earth. This
mighty river, so deep, so broad, so far-reaching
in its many branches, we may trace back to the
tears of that little girl. "Behold, how great q
matter little fire kindleth !"-Read's Hand of
God in History.

a SCENE IN CoNGREsS.-Hon. T.. c. Cabell,
in recent letter, thus describes a significant
scene which transpired in the House of Repre-
sentatives while the Southern members of that
body were urging the extension OF the Missou-
ri Compromise line to the Pacific
On the 7th of January, lS47, Mr. Dargan, a
Representative from the State of Alabama, in
the course of speech on this subject said -
"rhe North with one voice seemed ready to
declare that if new territory was to come into
the Union at all, it must be on condition that
Slavery never should be permitted to set its
foot there" He asked if there was "no one
gentleman from the North here present who
would stand by the Missouri Compromise y
He would be pleased to hear from them. After
pause, and no one responding, he said "there
was not one" 1t was then that Mr. Douglas
arose and said, "he was unwilling that the ST.
lence of gentlemen, when question was put,
should be so construed as to infer that there
was no man here who was willing to stand by
the Missouri Compromise" And he went on
in his characteristic, earnest, forcble and elo-
quent manner to give his reasons for opposing
the Wilmot Proviso, and for acting with the
South in extending the Missouri Compromise
line; and he was the only Northern man who
at that time had the boldness to take this posi-
ton. Soon AFTER and on the same day, Nh
Grover, of New York, in long Anti Slavery
extension speech, said at is proper that the
South and the whole country should understand
now, and at all times, that-l trust with one
solitary exception that presented itself this
morning (Mr Douglas) )-the entire North has
blt one feeling and one sentiment on the sub
ject."

which he stopped to let us pass, and then fol-

tidy in the small room. There was bed with
a mattress, table, some chairs, drawers, and
various toIsi gun hung on the wall. The
bell was rung; Jack went, and reappeared with
his master, wheeling in the chair. Meanwhile,

TRAINING-Francis Quarles, an old writer
who lived in the days of Charles the First, says
to parents "Be very vigilant over thy child in
the April of his understanding, lest the frosts
of May nip his blossoms. While he is a tender
twig, straighten him; whilst he is new vessel,
season him; such as thou makest him, such
commonly shalt thou find him. Let his first
lesson be obedience and his second shall be
what thou wilt. Give him education in good
letters to the utmost of thy ability and his ca
pacity. Season his youth with the love of his
Creator, and make the fear of his God the be-
ginning of his knowledge. If he have an active
spirit rather rectify than curb it, but reckon
idleness among his chiefest faults. As his judg-
ment ripens, observe his inclination, and tender
him calling that shall not cross it. Forced
marriages and callings seldom prosper. Show
him both the NOV and the plow; and prepare
him as well for the danger of the skirmish, as
possess him with the honor Of the prize"

Clearer than the woodland spring,
Are the eyes ol baby Bum!

Smile mother. smile!
Thinking softly all the while
OF tender bissiul day,
When the dark eyes, 50 like those,
OF the chcrub ON your knees,
stole you girli-h heart away.
OH the eyes of baby Bum!
Rurcst mischief will they do,
When once old enough TO steal
What their father stole from YOU!
Smile, mother, smile!
Wnsomc baby Bum!
Milk-white lilies half unrolol,
Set in calyces of gold
Cannot make his forehead fair,
With its rings of yellow hair!
Scarlet berry cleft in twain,
By II wedge of pcarly grain,
Is the mouth Of baby Bunn!
Weep, mother, weep,

With his head against your breast
Never in the coming years.
Though he seeks for it with tears,
Will he find so sweet n rest.
Oh the brow Of baby bunnl
Oh, the scarlet mouth of Buun,

Though the trembling lips shall shrink,
White with anguish as they drink,

Drops Of blood like purple rain
Weep, mother, weep.

Win~ome baby Bum!
Feet like these may lose the way,
Wandering blindly from the rights
Pray and some times will your prayers
BE to him like golden stairs
Built through darkness into light.
Oh, the dimplcd feet of Bum,
In their silken stockings dressed
oh, the dainty hands of Bum,
HID like rose-lcaves in your breast!
These shall grasp at Jewels rare,
Bu; to find them empty air;
These shall falter many day,
Bruised and bleeding by the way,
Ere they reach the land of rest!
Pray, mother, pray.

Our Mftstse Ida got off good joke on her
mother the other day. She wanted to go to the
party in the evening, but "press of business"
prevented my attending with her, which led her
to throw herself upon the sofa in rather dis
appointed mood. In childlike simplicity the
little one climbed upon its mothers lap, put its
arms around her neck and said:
"What's the matter, mammal Are you sick P"
mo-" said the mother.
"Are you P" "No."
"rhen,' said the child, "you're 'punky" She
knew what "spunky" meant.
