Hon. r. @. schsnck made Republican
speech at Columbus, o., recently, in which
he made the following good hit
For his part be did not believe that the
Constitution carried Slavery into the Terri
tories. twas the Republican doctrine that
Congress bad the power to keep Slavery out
OF the Territories, and ought to do it, that
there might be no doubt Of their adopting
free constitutions This was the old Wbig
doctrine, and be was sorry to find old Wings
in the Demos ranks fighting against it.
After the excitement OF the campaign ~as
over, and Lincoln was elected, and the coun-
try was Mt peace, they would look obviously
at sqnatter Sovereignty aud The Slave Code
and perhaps experience the horror On A as
constituent of that tipsy gentlem an, who
vomited one night into a basket OF goslines,

The LIGHT Of Home.

A traveller was returning towards his
homo after long wandcrngs 10 distant lands,
and his heart was full of happiness and
hopo. Many years had passed since no had
seen his father and mother, aud tho thought
of so soon meeting tbem again gave wings

and for some time it was SO dark that he

THE JEFFERsoN1AN DEMOCRAT. =
Eccentric Maladies.

A gentleman is mentioned By Dr.. Beattie,
who, after blow on tho head, lost his
knowledge Of Greek, but did not appear
to have lost anything else. A frequent
modification consists in putting one name
for another, but always using the words
in the same sense thus a gentleman af.
fected 10 this manner, when he wanted
Goals put on the FIRE, always called for
paper, and when he wanted paper, called
for Goals and these words he always
used in the same manner. DR.. Gregory
used, in lectures, 10 mention the case oil
a clergyman who, while laboring under
an affection OF The brain, spoke nothing
but Hebrew--the last language he had
acquired. Dir. Pritchard mentions an
English lady, who, in recovering from an
apoplectic attack, always spoke 10 her
attendants in French, as she had abso'
lu'ely lost the knowledge Of the English
language. This continued about month
The celebrated DR.. Broussone; lost, after
slight apopleclic attack, the power Of
prououncing substantive nouns, whether
in French or Latin. Thus, when he
wished to pronounce apple, he described
it by its qualities. When the mum was
shown to him, written o. printed, he i'm
mediately recognized it, but he had no
power to designate it fpontaneously
Cuver, in his lectures. relates a similar
case of person who had only lost the
memory of substantive nouns, but could
pronounce all acjectiyes.

A brilliant writer has said, that with all

potual pupilago of tho present, within the
solemn halls and porches aud under the
authoritative voices of tho past. 1, is true
that, In large measure, tho dead thus rule

vol their venerable dicta, before we charge
ourselves with serviity. As we hope for
respect for the voice of our genoration in
the future, evon SO must We respect tho
voices OF tho generations of tho dead Onco
they were living and powerful. proud and
witty. and perchanco as wise as We. They
had tho same great common teachers, his
tory and experience, and their procodents
that reach forward to govern us, also gov
erned thom. Not in i'll Twill, nor selfshly.
do thoy reach out from thoir graves to curb
us on. The best they knew and found for
themselves, that bcquoathod they to us
lot us be grateful Tor whatever romans
from them wiso and good enough for our
need. Tho path of human progress lies
this way, up tho long limo OF generations
Wo not only tread forward over succession:
oil ancestral tombs. but wo march upward
on SUGGESTIONS of ancestral VISIONS aud
truths. SLOW. indeed, should wo be in
striking down old landmarks. Timo and
use have hallowod them, and il thoy must
be passed, lot il 10 in silence and with un.
covered heads. ilow soon our lot will be
with tho dead, wien, il is fair to Judge, the
future will deal with us no more reyerentl y
than wo deal with tho past.
