A senator's Courtship.

Senator Foster, of Connecticut, is about to
get married Life illustrator says:
Ifreports are correct this is not the first
time Mr. Foster has been wounded by the little
god When we lived in Connecticut we re-
collect hearing a story that ran in this wise.
During his period of law study in the south
eastern portion of the State, he became ac-
quainted with young lady of prepossessing
appearance aud more than ordinary accom-
plshments, daughter of parents Of the high
est respectability, and moving in the most
fashionable circles of the vicinity. With her
he entered one of his earliest pleas and com
menced his first suit
That he was successful is evident from the
fact that, shortly after his admission to the
bar; and having obtained an honorable posi-
ton and business connection, arrangements
for consummating the marriage were made
and all went ON harmoniously until a short
time before the appointed day During his
visit one evening, he remarked that he be-
heved all necessary arrangements for the
wedding were made, and the route for the
bridal tour decided He added "On our
return we shall be obliged to devote short
time 70 our friends here, after which 4
you please, we will pay visit to my old father
and mother, and spend few days witt
them"
Now, La Fayette was always a good boy
and taught to honor his father and mother
which early became TO him pleasure as wei
as duty. He had received from them wordl
of love and encouragement which had done
for him without money (for they were poor
what money could never have done, ant
through all his privations and struggles to OBJ

been stimulated and supported by the though
Of the the pleasure his success would gfy,
them, and he looked forward to the day when
with his chosen one, he should meet beneath
their humble roof and receive again theil
blessings, TO be one of the happest he SHOULD
ever experience.
For few moments the lady kept silence
She then said "Mr. Foster, you know hav,
: been educated with different ideas from yours
and have always associated with people who's,
manners aud style of living are different from
those OF your parents, and although l shall
make no objection to your proposed visit,
wish you TO understand that shall not expec
to repeat 1t soon or often. and that l shall no
desire to associate with people of their class
Nothing could have surprised him NOR
than to hear these words from her lips. Fo
a few minutes he walked the room, seemingl
half bewidered Then taking hat in hand h

The Dmty of DemOcrats.

The fall elections in Pennsylvania, Ohio and
Indiana, have not, we confess, says the Ohio
StateSma,L gone as we had hoped and antic-
pated they would result There is an appar-
ent sectional Abolition strength in all these
States greater than was anticipated. In the
present confused state of the returns, and the
impossibility of looking into the details, it is
difficult to speak about the causes which have
operated in these elections, in an intelligent
or satisfactory manner.
1t is the habit to regard the local elections
preceding the Presidential contest, as an in
dex of what may be expected on the final tri-
al And usually the State elections may be
regarded as pretty sure indication of what
will be the result in November To this there
are exceptions. In 1928 the opponents of
Gen. JACKSON swept the State of Ohio on the
second Tuesday in October but the Hero OF
New Orleans carried it by decided vote in
the November following. DoUGLAs, like
JACKSON, is stronger than the local candidates
in any Of the States referred TO, and will com
mand greater vote in November, in each Of
them, than the party candidates obtained in
October
Conceding that we have met with some dis
asters in the local elections-wh Is our duty
---..-l--- .i.s ACKNOWLEDGEMENT The monster o
sectionalism, both north and south, must still
be met, and, if possible, overthrow. Venus
not recoil upon the first reverse, caused, no
by the strength of our lanatcal opponents
hut by divisions where none should ever hav,
existed but we should at once rally all con
seryative men in solid phalanx close up tn,
ranks and with the courage which nobl,
cause is so well calculated to inspire-tht
cause Of our Country and the integrity of oui
Uuion-we should burst upon our opponents
with all our concentrated forces, strike terrol
into their ranks and contend for victory unit
the last moment This is the duty of all gooC
and true men, who love and venerate the insti
tutions of the country and reverence the Fed
eral Union. Will any man, who recognizes
his duty TO be as we have stated, falter in per

Private History of the walker
Expedition.
The Mobile Register says:

The Mobile Register says;
"The private history of the expedition,
which terminated so fatally, cannot fail to in
terest the reader. Our limits permit MS only
hasty sketch of the principal features
When the cession Of the Bay Island to Hon
duras was made public, an emissary represent
ing the principal inhabitants of Ruatan, came
to the United States, and in interview with
Walker and his friends in New Orleans
and Mobile, represented to them in strong
terms the aversion of the white population to
being transferred into the hands of MON
grsl--half Indian, half negro-goyernmen
and their determination 70 resist the annexa-
ton, and to erect themselves into an indepen-
dent State, For this purpose he besought the
assistance Of Walker with a small force of
Americans, and after much hesitation and de-
liberation, the assistance was granted though
| somewhat reluctantly Through some indis
erection not necessary to particuarize, but for
which neither Walker nor any of his followers
are responsible, the well contrived plan was
divulged to Guardiola, who arranged with the
British authorities that the transfer should be
delayed six months.
Meanwhile Walker being advised Of this,
determined to leave the island temporarily. so
that his presence should not serve as pre-
tence for the delay Of the transfer The trans
fer however, did not take place, and Walker,
after a prolonged cruise, watching the English
vessel Of war, and being watched by it, was
was compelled 10 effect landing. The seiz-
ure of fTruxillo, therefore, was bold coup de
main demanded by circumstances, but not
contemplated in the original plan. 1t would
have been successful but for the interference
ofthe British war vessel, which compelled him
to surrender the town. Even after the sur
render there is no doubt that he could have
maintained imselfagainst the mongre troops
Of Guardole but the British commander,
learning that reinforcements were on the way
to join Walker, determined on different DO.
Icy, and although he had signed regular
capitulation permitting Walker to depart un-
molested, he afterwards lent his overwhelming
force to the Hondurian President to surprise
and capture the brave chief and his heroic lit
stle band The morality Of this proceeding
