GA Mis'able Nigger."

My friend asked Anthony Rox, a su-
perb engine driver on the Ohio river,
how he came to get free. "Why, Massa

kind oh work; I was berry feeble; wastes
as much as I could do to hoe my own

SEA-SHoRE MUSINGS.

Gloomy storm clouds, far away,
Whittier wilt thou roam to-day?
Will some far off thirsty isle
With thy pearly blessing smile?
Or upon our blest shore,
Wilt thou thy rich treasure pour?
Dropping bud, and fading flower,
Court now thy gem-like shower.
Thunders murmur in thy breast,
Lightnings glance at thy behest
Robes of night and brow of fire,
They who fear thee, must admire.
Like some mist-clad Genii, thou
Through the azure movest now,
Type of doom, yet blessings free
And unnumbered, rest in thee.
Col tits the Divine command,
Roam DER every sea and land,
Make the desert, drear and wild,
Bloom with Eden's beauty mild,
Cheer the stream, the forest bless,
Exile famine, soothe distress,
Danish pestilence, and death,
With thy cool refreshing breath.
Thou, Oh, cloud! an emblem art,
Of the sorrows of the heart.
'Tis the soul baptised in tears
That the voice of Jesus hears.
olive by faith,' o, faithful mani
Canst thou read the Almighty's plan?
With each cloud a gem is given
For the diadem of Heaven.
Each wild storm that rends my heart,
Leaves for Heaven a larger part,
Sweeps away some cherished sin,
Lets some heavenly influence in;
And amid the ruins wild,
Where thy earth-born idol smiled,
Bloom, unknown perchance to thee,
Flowers of Immortality.

Helper in the Senate.


A pretty good "sell" was perpetrated
in the House the other day by some of
it's members, who profess to have just
returned from the Senate, and asked ey-
cry one they met if they had heard of
the excitement in the Senate. "Why,
no" would be the reply, "what was it?''
"The greatest excitement of the season
far ahead of the Haskin affair."" contin-
ued the reporters. "Well, what was it?''
eagerly demanded the hearers. 'sWhy,"
responded the relators, 'tjust as the
chaplain Of the Senate was opening with
prayer and got as far as-'Oh Lord, thou
art our Helper the amazement OF
the Republicans every Democratic Sen
ator drew his Bowie knife, and exclaimed
in loud voice. Where is he?'"

Too Lazy to Pray.

A popular divine tells good story as
a hit at those christians who are too in
dolent to pursue the duties required of
them by their faith. He says that one
pious gentleman composed feryent
prayer for the Almighty, wrote it out
legibly, and affixed the manuscript to his
bed-post. Then, on cold nights, he
merely pointed to the document, and
with the words, ''Oh Lord those are my
sentiments" blew out the light and nes-
tied amid the blankets. t

Another Defa1cation--A Parallel to 40.

7. G. Hunt, receiver of public
moneys at Natchitoches, La, is a
defaulter to the Government for
S85,00O This is the last discovered
swindle, but there are probably more to
follow. It was SO in 1840. The cam
paign opened the same way. Charges
of corruption and extravaganza made
against the then existing Administration
were sustained by successive disclosures
of defalcation on the part of Government
officials. The people became alarmed at
the ex tent of these swindles, and swept
from power the false Democracy in whose
name they had been perpetrated. They
made an honest, straightforward old Pi-
oneer of the West t-neither politician
nor the son of a politician-President of
the United States, taking him from OBJ
scurity and making him the instrument
and the representative of their power

Beautiful

Beautiful
Why is it that the rainbow and the
cloud comes over US with beauty that
is not of earth, and then pass away, leaving
US to muse on faded loveliness? Why is
it that the stars that hold their lightly
throne are placed above the reach of our
limited faculties, forever mocking us
with their unapproachable glory? And
why is it that the bright forms of hu-
man beauty presented to our views are
then taken from us, leaving the thousand
streams of affection to flow back in al
mighty torrents upon the human? We
are born of larger destiny than that of
earth. There is land where the stars
will be set out before us like islands that
slumber in the ocean, and where the
beautiful beings that pass before us like
meteor will stay in our presence for
ever

A Democratic Lament.

A Democratic Lament.
The Chicago Herald, an Anti-Doug
las Democratic journal, thus sentiment,
ally mourns over the demise of its
party: .......
Sadly and slowly this lamp of the pa
triot has grown dim and shadowy.-
Long continued peace and prosperity
have planted the canker at the heart OF
the great National Democracy. Per
sonal ambition, factions hate and the
spoils of office have been at work. The
old giant that has so often crushed out
opposition, teters and reels like q
drunken man Disagreement, strife,
hatred and revenge sit in the holy seats
torn from the bands Of impartiality and
friendship. The times are very sick
almost unto death. Reason has sue
cumbed to passion, and mad selGshness
has triumphed over love of country and
loyalty to party principles. The De-
mocracy at Baltimore, as we'll as at
Charleston, have shown sad evidences
that we have fallen on evil times. Dis
cord, selfshness, envy and violence have
met US at every step. The fraternity OF
the party has been destroyed, its prestige
annihilated, and its organization dis
rupted Such has been the goal to
which the men who now have the lead
of the Democratic party have at length
hurried the party of Jefferson and
Jackson.

Bancroft on the Declaration of Inde.
nendence,

| pendences
In the eighth volume of Bancroft s
History Of the United States, just pub
lished, the author thus refers to the
''Declaration of Independence
"This immortal State paper, which fol
it's composer was the aurora of enduring
fame," was "the genuine efusion of the
soul of the country at that time" the
revelation of its mind, when, in its youth
its enthusiasm, its sublime confronting
of danger, it rose to the highest creative
powers of which man is capable. The
bill of rights which it promulgates is OF
rights that are older than human insti-
tutions, and spring from the eternal JUS
tice that is anterior to the State. Two
political theories divided the world: one
found the commonwealth ON the reason
of State, the policy of ezpediency; the
other on the immutable principles Of
morals. The new Republic, as it took
its place among the powers Of the world,
proclaimed its faith in the truth and re-
ality and undergraduates of freedom,
virtue and right. The heart Of Jefferson
in writing the Declaration, and of Con-
gress in adopting it, beat for all human
ity; the assertion of right was made for
the entire world of mankind and all COM
ing generations, without any exception
whatever; for the proposition which ad
mits of exceptions can never be self-evi-
dent. AS it was put forth in the nams
of the ascendant people of that time, it
was sure to make the circuit of the world,
passing everywhere through the despotic
countries of Europe; and the astonished
nations as they read that all men are
created equal, start out of their lethargy,
like those who have been exiles from
childhood, when they suddenly hear the
dimly remembered accents of their
mother tongue.

THE REVOLVER IN DOMESTIC CIR.
Giles.

The recent tragedy near Vicksburg,
Mississippi, is regarded by the New
York Times as curious illustration of
"Southern Life" It thus relates the in
cident:
Mr. Lee and Mrs. Lee are on a visit
with Mr.. Flowers, and do not agree very
we'll. Mrs Lee is playing chess with
Mr.. Flowers, and Mr.. Lee is sitting be-
hind him looking on. He suddenly
comes to the determination to shoot Mrs.
Lee, and draws a revolver and fires
Mr.. Flowers rushes to the fallen lady,
supports her with his left arm, and with
the other, instead of stanching the wound
or administering stimulants, as cool
blooded Yankee might have done, draws
another revolver and opens fire over his
left shoulder, on the guilty husband,
lodging five balls in the gentleman face.
The bodies were then removed, the blood
washed up, and we presume Mr.. Flowers
reloaded his weapons to be ready for fresh
accidents. The beauty of this story lies
in the manner in which it illustrates the
place which the revolver has taken in
Missippian families as a domestic utensil.
Hosts and guests carry tin their bosoms
at all hours of the day and night, just as
beaux of the olden time used to carry the
gold snuff-box, or as modern belle car
ries her smelling bottle. If anything
goes wrong, out it comes, and few
bangs remove differences, quench ami
mosities, put an end to strife and heart
burning, and restore calm to everybody.
Dining at friends table, with the full
knowledge that he carries "six -shooter"
in his pocket, and that number of cir
eumstances may occur which would lead
to his lodging all the balls in your body,
and having you remains removed by the
colored waiter, must be a curious and
thrilling sensation.
