Telling secrets.

must relate my first and last expert
ments in training my oldest son to keep
family secrets He was a chatter box
and as he often visited among strangers
without me, / was fearful he would tell
more than he should. SO taking him on
my knee | said:
My dear, you must never tell any
thing we say, or let ont any plans to any
one-especiolly to Mrs. Jones'"
His quick mind comprehended me in
an instant, and with a very confirmed
look, he promised obedience. a few
days after he entered my room with an
air of triumph, and said:
"Mamma, l minded you. Mrs. Jones
asked me when you were going TO New
York, and l said, Il can not tell you,
fro my mamma don't wish you to know
any other plans
In my CONSERVATION | was tempted to
reprove the innocent boy, but, upon
moment thought, | let the matter
pass, knowing that it could not be ex-
planned or extenuated, and preferring to
lose the friendship Of Mrs, Jones rather
than sully his pure. trusting spirit with a
lesson of worldly policy.
When his younger brother a more qui'
ct boy, but equally fond of visiting, and
a great pet ana darling with all whc
knew him, became old enough to betray
family secrets, gave him no caution
but trusted to his common sense. On'
day, on returning from an errand at {
neighboring house, he stood while alb
sorbed in thought. and then said:
"Mamma, what shall l say when peo
pie ask me: What is your mother doing?
and .Wha, did Won have for dinners?
Nv hat did you say, my dear?' said
"Why," said ho, looking bashiully a
side, Il said, Il guess it is time for me t.

A Poor DOdIc.

1t is universally conceded that the at
tempt ofthe republican politicians to hide
Mtr party under the mask of no-party
convention, in which they will constitute
nearly the whole material, AMI one OF the
poorest and boldest of dodges. They
may call themselves what they please
they may change their name, which they
have rendered odious; they may even put
men who have not been hitherto rcpub-
licans on their ticket, but who have now
lent themselves to carry out their plans
but despite all this their conventions wiII
be known as a republican convention
and their ticket as the republican ticket
The issuo will be in fact between ma
tional democratic ticket and sectlona
one, disguised under false mask
Which will the people take! In God
name, have they not had enough OF re
publican rule? Do they want to maxi
any new investments in that politica
stock which has bankupted the country
Do they wish to aggravate the matter SUI
more by throwing in an additional irr'
tant to the body polite?

The Common schools.

The common schools gives the key Of
knowledge to the mass Of the people. |
think it may with truth be said that the
branches oi knowledge taught therein,
when taught in finished mastery man
ner-readiug in which include the SPELL
ing of or language, firm, slightly, lcgi-
be'handwriting. and the elementary rules
of arithmetic-are of greater value than
all the rest which is taught now-a- lays
at shool. | am far from saying that
nothing else can be taught at our distri ct
schools, but the younS person who brings
these from school, can himself in his win
ter evenings, range over the entire field %
useful knowledge. Our common schools
are important in the same way as common
air, the common sunshine, the common
-invaluable Tor their commonness-
They are the cornerstone of the municipal
organization, which is the characteristic
feature of our social system, they are tho
fountain of that ile-spread intelligence
which like moral life, prevades the coun
try. From the humblest village schoo
there may go forth q teacher. who, lik
Newton, shall bind his temples witt
the stars OF Orien's belt--with Herschol
light up his cell with the beams befor
undiscovered planets--with Franklin
grasp the lightning.

/ gain Democrats into "the support Of the
/ partisan policy, and apologists Of the err
rors Of this Administration" No. not
at all. He meant to maintain the Gov.
eminent, as'well "s our party, and said in
the very last sentenencc Of his last tier,
that il we wished to gain the asccndency
and 'perPetudte our purity. we must new
er forget that man could not be a true
Democrat unless he was loyal patriot"
Such are the last words Of advice Of the
immortal Douglas, to his party friends.
He wished to pcrpetuatc "our party" by
being loyal atriots. Now, few Of his
late followers would dare to break it mp,
upon the same plea. Strange consisten-
cy.
Then stand by the faith Of Douglas!-
Remaln firm at your post of duty! In
conventions where all were represented,
the Democracy decided that they would
keep their banner unfurled. None can
forsake it without dishonor.
Swerve then, neither to the right hand
nor to the left; but stand by the constitu-
tion of our country--by the constitu-
tional maintainance Of the Uniou--by the
Government in this hour Of its severest
trial--and stand by the good old Demo-
cratic party; for all these interests de-
mand it, and when the election is over
you will not regret having so performed
your duty. BY order of committee

"'Thc DisuuiouistS." )"

Douglas, in his famous speech of March
18th, furnished tc.t by which you can
tell the thorough disunionists. He said:
Disguise it as you may, eyery Union
man in Imerica mas! Gduocdte such
amendments to tie Constitution as wiH
preserue peace and restore the Union
,chile every disunionist, whether openly or
secretly plotting its destruction, IS the od-
pocote of peaceful secession, or OF WAR
AS THE SUREST MEANS OF REM
DERlNG REUNION AND RECON
STRUCTION IMPOSSIBLE"
Look around yon and see who were op-
posed to compromise, and who favored
coercion, and you can readily ascertain
who the disunionists were. The search
will prove that the great bulk of the DEM
ocrats were Union men, while the great
bnlk of the republicans were disunionists
and these parties maintain precisely the
same relation to the Union now that they
maintained to it before the Inauguration
of this war.

Taxcs.

The abolition press is indignant Il al
lusion is made to the increased taxes
consequent upon the war. They estimate
the patriotism of the people at so con-
temptible rate as to suppose that they
will favor q dishonorable peace, rather
than to submit to an increased taxation.
1t will have no such effect upon them.
1t will, however, have the effect to cause
them TO refuse to elect members to the
Ohio Legislature who will vote for B. F.
w Wade for the United States Senate, or
for any man like him, who, by his per-
sistent refusal to vote for the Crittenden
compromise, and TINS settle the trouble
between between the North and South
pcaceably, contributed to entail upon
them these heavy taxes AMI dull times
This is what patriotism demands they
should do.

Deserted Ancient Cities.

Mr., Graham, an Englishman recently
returned from the East, in a re-
port to the royal Asiatic Society. gives
an account of five ancient cities, deserted
and forgotten, which have been discover
cd in the Great Desert beyond the Jor-
dan, They were yet as perfect as II the
inhabitants had Just left them, the houses
retaining their massive stone doors. In
one of the cities is a large building, like a
castle. built of white stone, beautifully
cut, Farther eastward other places were
found, where every stone had inscriptions
in an unknown character, resembling
Greek.
