AESESI AND L
Down on the slope the cow-bells tingled;
Up in the trees the robin sung
The bees hummed low, and Arri andI
Sat in the grapevine there and swung;
Strange dark eyes aud tender face,
Set in the fairest golden hair
shy, soft form ofbeauty and grace;
Such was Arri beside me there.
We were children then, they called US 80;
And we sat there under the summer noon,
Swinging listessly to and fro,
And humming together low love tone;
The sycamore dropped its fan-leaved arms,
And the russell tassels swung
Among the leaves like marriage bells
On the white twigs, silver hung.
fair soft tress has slepto on my heart
This many and many day;
have thought that the heart might scarcely beat,
Ifthat were taken away;
Over and over kissed it--soi-
Lay It out in the moonlight there =
1t brings me back the strange dark eyes,
The tender face and the golden hair.
She gave It to me one Rjght in May,
Walking under the full May-moon.
Twas going away in ship that night,
To come again in the next years June;
have come again, but tits not June;
Down on the slopes the snow drifts high;
The winter moon shines clear and cold,
The trees are gray, and so ami.
Moons have passed unremembered away
Since then;-their lustrous coils
Have wound around the shining earth,
Making night their spoils.
Many May has passed away,
Many June has sped
Death and Winter reign on the slope;
am here, but Arri is dead
Across the path in the graveyard now
can hear the church-bell ring;
A white stone parts the drifted snow,
Close by the grapevine swing;
The sycamore droops its long bare arms,
And the russet tassels swing
To and fro, like funeral bells,
On the dead twigs where they cling.
We are both here under the moonlight,
Where we walked so long ago;
Both, both under the moonlight,
But one is under the snow.
Dark eyes lie deep under snow and sod;
Mould rests on the golden hair;
Deep, deep under shadow and grave-stone,
Thick dust is gathering there.
Dust on the forehead pure and white
Dust on my heart so heavy and cold
Tempest and rain and night have passed
Over my life gray and old.
Many night and many storm
Have darkened the blue Paciic's flow,
only remember one that passed
Down by the red equator's glow:
Passed with its sheltering wings Of night
Wewere left on bleak, barbarian shore;
The burning tropical day rose up,
And then counted the days no more;
never counted the burning years,
Crossing the seas with that fiery tread,)
What matter TO me IL they went camel

CHAPTER V.

A twelve month has sped away, and borne
upon its wings many and varied of times
changes, and again we have bright, sun
ny morning in the pleasant June time of
roses and universal beauty; when all nature
looks gay, and earth is teeIning with life
and gIadness, and the golden sunbeams
come gliding softly down like angel voices
to cheer and animate the weary toiling
ones, and leave warm ray, beam of joy
in every heart No respecter of persons is
this beautiful, glorious sunlight Everybody
may bathe and revel in it; may warm and
be gladdened by it; may rejoice, revivify
and grow happier and better under this
magnetic influence. 'Tis heaven bought
privilege that we hold some things in com
mon, in this life's journey; that the earth's
broad bosom bears and cherishes beauty
everywhere; that the rain falls for all; that
the dewdrops glisten in the wildwood, the
moor and the glen as in the rich parterre
the choicest cultivated grounds, or on the
rarest exotic; that for all the golden light
comes flooding down, and for all now anG
then, choice bit like mamma falls; thai
happiness is not bought with gold, and thai
oft-times the goddess hovers very near, and
lets gently fall some of her brightest smile:
to bless that noble soul who dares to dc
right, even when there is "na guinea tc
gain"
This very morning, with its balmy al
and deep blue sky, was so enchanting tha
earlier than usual it lured Minnie from he
downy couch, and now we see her coming

Miss Gibson died in Arkansas, from the
effects of snuf-dipping. She fell asleep
with the "mop" in her mouth and was found
corpse some hours after. She had swal-
lowed the juice, which was converted into
nicatine, a deadly poison; her lips, cheek
and breast, were smeared with the foul stuff
in her dying struggles, alone in her room.

feeble vote. No man at all conversant with
the relations which committees sustain to
the bodies appointing them, can seriously
maintain that that resolution could properly
control the action of the State Committee
The Committee do not stultify themselves by
setting it up as justification, though they
give one which is not a whit better. They
were bound by the instructions of the Or
ganized body which appointed them to call
the State Convention for the nomination of
State officers as a Delegate Convention ac-
cording to the rule laid down The wishes
of individuals, few or many, to have them do
otherwise, they were bound by their Office to
make no account Of. If, besides calling the
regular State Convention for the nomination
Of State officers as prescribed, they had seen
fit TO invite all the people Of the State to
meet the same day and at the same place, to
hold grand Mass ratfying Convention, they
could have done So. A Delegate Convention
to do business and Mass convention to hear
speeches and make ratifcations, at the same
day and place are of common occurrence
enough. 1t might have been so now if the
majority of the committee had chosen to have

tAsslUs NJ. CLAY AND FREE SPEEcH.-Ihe
pro-slavery leaders in Kentucky find a tough
customer in Cassius NJ Clay. They have
been determined to stop his speaking on the
subject of Slavery or to drive him out OF the
State. but they make small headway IN
either direction The Cincinnati Gazette
saws that on the opening of the Court OF Ma
olson county, at Richmond, on the 4th, Mr.
CLAW made an address at the court house IN
vindication of the Republican platform lie
had given notice of his intention to speak
and the subject was much talked OF and 1t
annears that the self constituted Vigilance
Committee men were for silencing him. \
large number of people were present from
the country round about. and the Court
House was packed full.
Mr.. CLAW took up the Republican platform
and read it, making ne allusion to the mob,
but going on to vlndlcate the principles laiu
down in that platform. Finding him pru-
dent enough to avoid any mention OF the moo
one of the most violent Of them declared that
Mr.. Clay should be " shot through The h2aa.
Mr. CLAW said he claimed the same equa
RIGHTS as were allowed other parties, and
that he would "stand or fall there The
clamor against him continued, but the great
mass cried, d" Go on.
MIR. Clay then said - Gentlemen, ! SET
what Won are after. If nothing but tgh
will do you, we are ready for you: NoG tr!
il. Shall speak, citizens, or not ~ ." Yes
yes, 90 on, was the response from the grrea
mai majority of the crowd. A dozen voices
cried out, q" No, no." To which Mr.. {. re
