The VAIL Of the mother.

Our child, In tho beautiful robes Of the dead,
Lay calm on hfs last white pillow,
And the grief that he left us broke wild over
y head
AS DER the lost wreck breaks the billow;
n seemed that our hearts in the desolate grave
Should be laid down to perish beside him.
We felt that our pieadings NO longer could
F,.S save,
Nor our hands rom corruption divide him.
They lad him away in the cheerless hall,
Where the cold Of the winter was creeping,
Where the curtains tapped ON the bare white
80 unlike the warm couch Of his sleeping
And the poor mother spoke as they hid his
dear form
That one moment most bitter and trying
81 have kept him so long in my bosom warm;
And now in the cold he Is lying!''
They covered tie CONN, and dark fell the
cloud,
As we stood the dead sleeper surrounding,
And we saw the thick sky With the heavy rain
,. bowed,
And we heard the loud storm-wind sound
rS.n sAs grief Of tn. mother bro1. forth with
waiI.- r-1
The last heavy outburst of sorrow--
"They are taking him from rs. all frozen and
pale,
II will rain on his grave tomorrow"
Oh desolate motherl oh bitter grief,
That troubles the deep heart Of woman
Nis weA that Gods hand holds the coming
.Ftis-- relief,
That our pains, like our pleasures. are hu-
man. m
N+iswel that We know that the cold beats in
.l1is = vain
On the spirit unchanged and immortal,
And that falls the warm sunshine, IS well as
fs5f the rain,
On the grave which is heavens own portal

Does the Constitution of the United
States recognize slaves as property

The bred Scott decision saws that
the CONSTITUTE on recognizes slaves to be
property the same as other property
The ridiculous absurdity of tbs may be
seen, by the most ordinary mind. If
the trainers of the Constitution designed
that slaves should be regarded simply
as property, why did they provide
fugitive clause in the Constitution p
1t was because the fugitive, escaping
beyond the limits of the municipal laws
declaring him slave, would have been
free by the common law of every civil
lied government in the world. If, as
the bred Scott decision maintains.
slaves stand on the same footing as
horses and COWS, why did not Congress
pass fugitive COW law, and fugitive
horse law? Horses and cows are in>
clined to run away as we'll as slaves, and
if perchance they cross State bounda-
ry, why not have law of Congress
requiring them to be given up?
The Constitution no where mentions
the word S1a0es, but speaks of them az
persons whom the municipal law regards
as slaves. Nor do the laws of any State
treat slaves simply as property. In the
Democratic slave States, ifa slave kill
a man or woman, he is hung; but if a
COW or horse kill man, they do not
Rang the COW or the horse. No won
der then, that the good sense of man
kind regards the bred Scott decision
as judicial abomination.
RooKFoRD.-Some disappointed Of
ice seekers at Rockford, Winnebago
Co, ILL.,, among whom we are sorry to

Convention. These disappointed M, n
got up Peoples Meeting, and managed
to get themselves nominated. They
will find in the long run that this kind OF
practice does not pay.

Duty of RenIIhIIcansl

The duty resting upon Republicans for active
effort, during the intervening days between this
and the sixth of November next is one imposed
by the love Of country, and by obligation to the
cause of liberty and humanity The destinies of
the country are committed to the hands of the
people every voter is a component part of the
government hence, every voter has wsiehty
responsibility resting upon him. Republican, if
you have neighbor OF friend, who is indiffer
ent-who feels no especial interest in the pres
ent political crisis, let him be awakened to the
Importance OF the contest. Or, if you have a
neghbor, who has been deluded with the speeiou.
imposition of Popular Sovereignty who has
been befoolod with the notion that the Douglas
doctrine allows the people of the Territories the
right to govern themselves, and to establish such
Institutions as they please, undeeeire him at once.
The Kansas Nebraska act, which was introduc.
ed by Mr. Douglas himself as a measure illus
trative Of his Popular Sovereignty theory, is IL
self proof, that all the defamation respecting the
people governing themselves, without Congress
siona Intervention, is mere sham. The twelfth
section Of the Kansas Nebraska nct. provides
that the Governor, Secretary, Chief Justice and
Associate Ju stces Attorney and Marshall. shall
be appointed by the President of the United
States The sixth section of the same act confers
t veto'power on the Governor, upon all laws
passed by the Territorial Legislature, and in
case of such veto, two-'hirds of the Legislature
are required &c pass the bill The twelfth sec.
ion gives the Governor the power Of appointing
territorial officers
Again to show how Mr.. Douglas himself con.
1trueS Popular Sovereignty. it should be remem-
bercd That Senator Chase, Of Ohio, in order to
iut Mr. Douglas to the test, proposed an amend
menf to the Kansas Nebraska act, TO the effect
that fhe people Of the Territories, should have
he power to prohibit slavery, If they saw fit
Nr Douglas and all the other Democratic Sena-
tors, voted NO.
At subsequent period, Senator Trumball. of
Illinois, offered an amendment to the Kansas
Nebraska bill similar TO that offered by Mr..
Chase Of Ohio; Mr.Douglas again together with
All the other Democratic Senators, voted NO i
If these votes of Mr.. Douglas mean anything
they prove that he did not intend to confer on
he people Of the Territory the power to exclude
slavery.
The civil war and blood.shed which were the
practical effect of Mr.. Douglas Popular Sover-
'gn'y in Kansas, are matters Of history known
10 ALL men. Does any one W ish to have these
scenes of havoc, rioting' and murder, &C ted over
again in other new Territories, then let him vote
for The Popular Sovereignty Candidate but if
he desires the history of the new Terr,tor les TO
be IS peaceabe az was that of Wisconsin, then
ct HIN vote the Republican ticket.

Mr.. EDIToR:-The recent appear
ance in our midst, ana in some of the
towns around US, Of the anomalous and
dangerous disease commonly known as
"Diphtheria," has aroused an interest
in the minds of the community, deep
enough, as appear. to US, to secure some
attention from those whe are called to
treat it medically. 1.-THE few brief sng-
gestions which may make, drawn from
observation, and study of the disease,
shall serve to induce those who may be
attacked by it, to use prompt measures
for its cure, we shall have attained the
object we have in view in making them.
The disease of which we speak, is
said by medical writer's, not to be a
new one, but to be Of gteat antiquity and
has been confounded with other diseas
es under different names. More mod.
ernly it has been char acterized by its
proper name, derived from the Greek,
slguifying "a Skin, a Hide"or Slough,
as such an idea at once suggests itself
on seeing the disease. 1t is defined Ms
being'a peculiar Inflammation of the fau
ces and tonsils, characterized by the
deposit in the tauces and throat, of a
lleathery false membI ane, which fire.
quently invades the respiratory passa-
yes, and is accompanied by aseyere fe
yer of low type" This definition is OF
course, subject to notifications varying
from slight and simple inflammation Of the
throat, to full development of the dis
ease, involving the tonsils, palate, laI :
ynx and trachea or wind pipe.
1t is not to be COMPOUNDED with the
sore throat which sometimes occurs IL
Scarlatina, nor with Quinsy, nor with
hat affection commonly called "putrid
sore throat" nor with membraneoue
Group. 1t is on the other hand an at
lection, infamatory in its character
pecliar to itself, progressing often like
an armed man, disdaining all r STRAIN
to fatal termination.
The caution we would give is, that
apparently slight affections ofthe throa.
occurring at this season of the year
should net be neglected. A gargle ma.
be used consisting of salt, pepper and
vinegar, or OF honey, borax and sage
Externally should be applied mustard
plaster or pepper, on the rind ofpork
or ham, or pledgets of hot water may
be kept on the throat. Belladonna or
Aconite should be taken internally, or
camphor in drop doses on sugar.
If on inspection the tonsils or palate il
ound covered more or less with patch
- of white, leathery membrane, medi-
al advice should be taken without de-
nv. as whatever isdone for cure should
