immediately admitted rs State under the
Constitution recently formed and adopted
by her people and accepted by the House
OF Representatives.
II. That, while providing revenue for
the support of the general government by
duties upon imports, sound policy requires
such an adjustment Of these imports as to
encourage the development of the indus
trial interests of the whole country and
We commend that policy of national ex-
changes, which secures to the working
men hberal wages. To agriculture remane-
rating prices, to mechanics and manufac.
| turers an adequate reward for their skill,
labor, and enterprise, and to the nation
commercial prosperity and independence.
ID. That We protest against any sale or
alienation 10 others of tie Pnbllc Lands
held BY actual settlers, and against any
view of the Free Homestead policy which
regards the settlers as paupers or suppii-
ants for public bounty; and we demand
the passage by Congress of the complete
and satisfactory Homestead measure which
has already passed the House.
Ia. That the Republican party is OPP
posed TO any change in our Naturalization
Laws or any State Legislation by which
the rights Of citizenship hitherto accorded
to immigrants from foreign lends shall be
abridged or impaired and In favor of
giving full and efficient protection to the
rights of all classes of citizens, whether ma
tive or naturalized. both at home and
abroad.
10. That appropriations by Congress
for River and Harbor Improvements Of a
National character, required for the &C
commodation and security of an existing

Government to protect the lives and prop
erty of its citizens.
l6. That Railroad to the Pacific Ocean
is imperatively demanded by the interests
OF the whole country that the Federal
Government ought to render immediate
and efficient aid in It's construction; and
that, AS preliminary thereto, daily Over

II. Finally, having thus set forth our
distinctive principles and views. We invite
the cooperation OF all citizens, however
differing on other questions, who substan-
tally agree with us in their affirmance and
support.
SUPPLEMENTARY RESOLUTION.
Resolved, That we deeply sympathize
with those men who have been driven,
some of them from their native States and
others from the State of their adoption,
and are now exiled from their homes on
account of their opinions; and we hold
the Democratic party responsible for this
gross violation Of that clause of the Consti-
tuition which declares that the citizens of
each State shall be entitled to all the priv
ieges and lmmunilies Of citizens in the sew

The First Quarrel Made Un,


He only stood still at the top of the
stairs and said, maggie, you're to come
down" But she rushed to him, and clung
round his neck, sobbing, "Oh, Tom,
please forgive mel can't bear it-I
will always be good-always remember
things-do love me, please, dear Tom %
We learn to restrain ourselves aswe get
older. We keep apart when we have
quarrele !, express ourselves in well-bred
phrases, and in this way preserve dig
nifed alienation, showing much frmness
on one side, and swallowing much grief
on the other. We no longer approx
mate in our behavior to the mere impul-
siveness of the lower animals, but con-
duct ourselves in every respect like men,
bers of highly civilized society
Maggie and Tom were still very much
like young animals, and SO she could rub
her check against his, and kiss his ear
in random sobbing way; and there were
tender fbres in the lad that had been
used to answer to Maggie's fondling, SO
that he behaved with the weakness, quite
inconsistent with his resolution to pun
ish her as much as she deserved; he act
ually began to kiss her in return, and
say, Don't cry, then, Maggie-here, eat
bit of cake" Maggie's sobs began to
subside, and she put out her mouth for
the cake and bit piece, and then Tom
bit a piece just for company, and they
ate together, and rubbed each others
cheeks and brows and noses together
while they ate, with a humiliating re-
semblance 10 two friendly ponies.-The

na-At ball one evening, a plain
country gentleman had engaged pretty
coquette for the coming dance, but gal
liant captain coming along persuaded the
lady to abandon her previous engage
ment in favor of himself. The plain
yeoman, overhearing all that had passed,
with frigid Indifference moved toward a
table and sat down to play game
of whist. The captain few minutes
afterward stepped up to the lady to ex-
cuse himself, as he was engaged to an
other that he had forgotten. The CO.
quette, much chagrined, approached the
whist table in hopes to secure her first
partner, and said, II believe Mr.. B,
it is time to take our positions" The
old fashioned suitor, in the act of dividing
a pack for the next dealer, courteously
replied, HNo madam, mean to keep my
position-when ladies shuttle, I cut.

GETTING OUT ORA D1LEMMA.

An exchange relates the following
amusing incident, which is stated to
have occurred at Chicago during the re-
cent convention:
Two fashionable young ladies from
New York, with profusion of skirt and
an immensity of hoops, desired to enjoy
birds eye view of the city, and were,
for that purpose conducted by some
gallant gentlemen to the roof of high
building. When they reached the ladder
leading to the small scuttle hole, it be-
came desirable, of course, for the gentle
men to ascend first. This they did; and
taking the hands of the young ladies as
they made their appearance through the
scuttle, handed, or rather dragged them
up on the roof. AS they rose through
the small opening, their hoops, from the
waist down, became more and more COM
pressed, requiring no little effort to pull
them through; but suddenly the feat was
accomplished, and the hoops, bursting
forth from the scuttle-hole, once more
expanded into their original rotundity.
After enjoying the scene for some time,
the party started for the downward
voyage; but then came the rub. While
it had been comparatively easy for the
ladies to squeeze through the scuttle-
hole, commencing from the waist and
rising upwards, it was different task
when the bottom of the hoops had to be
compressed into the same space for the
descent. When one side was squeezed
in the other side still remained ont
When the front was gathered together
and pushed through the hole, the back
was to be sticking up at an awkward ele-
vation. No fitting together of the joints
of a stove pipe, ever caused so much Ia
Dor and vexation as did the attempt to
compress those large hoops into that lit
tie opening. After several Intellectual eff
forts, but one way to get out of the dilemma
appeared. The gentlemen were required
to descend while some mysterious opera
ton was performed, and were particularly
cautioned not to come up again until
called. When the signal was given, and
they once more mounted on to the roof,
their fair companions were discovered
standing Gin all the slimness of un-
crinolined grace" while near by lay
two huge, mysterious looking circles of
SHELTON bones and sinews The descent
was then easily accomplished, a rush
was made by the young ladies to their
chamber, and "Mary Ann was dis
patched on salvage expedition to the
roof, to bring in the remaining portionl lof
the wreck.

Fertility of Authors.

A facetious correspondent, who ap-
pears to have mistaken our letter box for
that of witty cotemporary, sends us a
query-Which is the most industrious
writer, Dickens, Bulwer Lytton, or Mr..
Warren? to which he answers Dickens;
for he writes All the Year Round, while
Bulwer has written Night and Morning,
and Mr.. Warren Now and Then. In
justice to the latter gentlemen, our friend
should have remembered that when he
was merely writing novels, Mr.. Warren

OCTOBER TO MAY.

The day that brightens half the earth
Is night to halt. All, sweet!
Ones mourning is another's mirth;
You wear your bright years like crown
While mine, dead gsrlands, tangle down,
In chains about my feet,
The breeze which wakes the folded flower
Sweeps dead leaves from the tree;
So partial Time, as hour by hour,
He tells the rapid yesrs-ehuel
Brings bloom and beauty still to you,
But leaves his blight with me.
The rain which calls the violet up
Out Of the moistened mould,
Skaters the wind-fowers fragile cup;
For even Nature has her pets,
And, favoring the new, forgets
To love and spare the old
Tho shower which makes the bud rose
Beats off the lilac-bloom.
am ilac-so life goes
A lilac that has outlived May;
You are blush-rose. Well-a-day!
pass and give you room.
