neA.The issue between Messrs. Branch

q some degree, the anti'Sherman elements,
Several South Americans announced their
intention to support Democrat, and, ac-
cordingly, voted for Mr.. Scott, who was put
In nomination as a Northern man; Mr.. NAV,
nard having, in handsome manner, with,
drawn his name. The Western Democrats
held an informal conference this morning,
when it was determined to put Mr.. Scott in
nomination, and to ballot steadily for him,
at least for time. Another conference will
be held to morrow morning. The Western
Democrats, numbering twenty, have deter
mined to act in concert hereafter, ignoring
all Southern and Northern issues. Mr..
English, of Ind, may be taken up when Mr..
Scott is Withdrawn. But whoever may be
ruu the result will continue to be the same.
There is no possible chance for successful
combination against Mr. Sherman, who will
eventually be elected. though some of the
Republicans think notuntil after the Charles
ton Convention, when Senator Douglas will
bo thrown overheard, and his friends will
join their ranks.-[Special correspondent of

Governor Chase in his Message to the
Legislature, in speaking Of the murderous
invasion by Brown and his gang in the
State Of Virginia, uses the following language
Of palliation Of that atrocious outrage:
"While we viii not disavow just admira-
ton Of noble qualities, by whomsoever dis
PLAYED, we must not the less, but rather the
more, earnestly condemn all inroads into
States
The following extract from private letter
from the Western Reserve, TO the Hartford
Times, is an illustration Of the "noole
qualities" of Old Brown, which Gov. Chase
admiresl
As John Brown had been compared to
Jesus Christ, will give you one fact in his
history, which will illustrate his character
He lived the last eighteen years before going
TO Kansas within eighteen miles Of here
and was informed the other day by gems
tleman in this county, who is a man Of un-
poubted integrity, that when he lived in
Hudson, eighteen years ago, magistrate
sentenced Brown and his four boys to thirty
days imprisonment in Akron Jail, for burn
ing a neighbors fences and haystacks.-.
Brown had lawsuit with o neighber in
reference to piece of land, and the Court
decided against him; and TO crafty his ania.
ble disposition, he burned his neighbor's $
property. This is the man whvm the Re-
publican party compare to Washington,
The Kansas Herald Of Freedom, speaking
Of the crimes and depredations of this man
of mobile qualities says
The first article we wrote about old John
Brown was designed to caution Republican,
against canonizing him. But they disrea
garded our earnest solicitations, and the re-.
suit, our articles are copied by Administra-
ton papers far and near. We regret that
Republican journalists have made such
eonsummate donkeys of themselves as to
occupy the false position they do, When
the Pottawatamie murder reached the public
ear, the Free State party, as such, called q
convention at Ossawatamie, and denounced
it in measured terms. Republicans should
have done the same in respect to the Har-
per's Ferry tragedy,
And yet this is the man whom the Clover
nor Of the State of Ohio goes out of his way
in a State paper to eulogizel The man who
Admires the "noble qualities of such II
wretch as old Brown was, is no better than
he was, and only lacks the courage to emu
late them.

The River Of Time.
BY b. =. TAYLOR.


o, a wonderful stream is the River Time,
As it rms through the realms Of tears,
With a faulthless rythm and musical
rhyme. ..
And broader sweep and surge sublime,
As it blends with the Ocean of Years,
How the winters are drifting like lakes OF
snow,h
And the summers like buds between. d,
And the lear in the shesf, so they come and
they 60
Or the rivers breast, with it's ebb and flow,
As it glides in the shadow and sheen
There's magical isle on the River Time.
Where the softest airs are playing.
And a song as sweet as d vesper chime,
And the Juues with the roses are staying,
And the name of the Isle is the Long Ago,
And we bury our treasures there:
There are brows Of beauty and bosoms Of
There are heaps OF dust, but we loved them
mere are TlnEetS anu treSSe5 Ol ntlT.
There are fragments OF songs that nobody
sings,
And part Of an infants prayer; ...
There's lutte unswept, and harp without
strings,
There are broken vows and peices of rings,
And the garments she used to wear.
There are hands that waved, when the fairy
shore,
BY the Mirage is lifted in air;
And we sometimes hear through the turbu-
lent roar,
Sweet voices we heard in the DAYS gone be.

When the wind down the river is fair
