FRUITS OF THE waRANDpE.cp

- OF WAR.
Inc warrior waves his standard high
His falclrion flashes in the fray;
lie madly shouts his battle cry,
And glories in beautiful day;
But Famine's at the city gate,
And Rapine prowls about the walls
The country round lies desolaie,
While havOc's blighting footstep falls
BY ruined hearts, by homes defiIed,
BY scenes that Natures visage mar.
We feel the storm cf passions wild,
And pluck the bitter fruits Of war.
PEACE
The cobweb hangs on sword and belt
The charger draws the gliding pIow.
The eannOns in the furnace melt,
And turn to gentle purposes now;
Inc threshers swing their ponderous fails.
The craftsmen toll with cheerful might:
1hc ocean swaTms with merchant sails;
And busy mills look gay by night,
The happy land becomes renown'd,
As knowledge, arts, and wealth increase.
AID thus, with plenty smiling round,
We Gull the blessed fruits Of peace.

Reasons for suppOrting the New
COnSfituiiOn.

We advocate the adoption of the new
constitution because
1t blOts out the two mill tax-nearly one
half of the present taxation for State pur-
poses.
1t puts beyond the reach of venal legis
lation the States interest in the Illinois
Central Railroad-amounting to $50. OCO
annually.
1t puts an end to private and special
Legislation, and creates none but general
laws, saving at least one half of the expense
of the State Government
1t establishes an economical, self.payirg
Judiciary system, which will also save a
large expense annually incurred Ly the
State under the old system.
Itcompels litigants to pay the expenses
of the Courts
1t prevents taxation for the benefit of
corporations or associations, either by
county or city ordinance.
1t puts stop to substerfuge and stealing
by closing the doors of the treasury against
special allowances ofperquisites TO officials.
1t provides fair compensation to all
public servants.
l. bare die Banks, and prohibits the issue
or circulation or sIumPtail In any shape.
1t makes the property of corporations
come under the same rules of law as private
property-thus preventing those soulless
bodies from defrauding the poor laborer
out of his honest dues.
1t secures to each family homestead
free from sale or process of law, except for
taxes or debts due for improvements
thereon.
1t secures to labor It's full earnings.
1t embOdies general system of sound
policy, economy and retrenchment, and
saves annually $lS6, $50 in the current ex-
pense of the State Government.
1t makes lower the rates of taxation for
State purposes just at the time the national
burden is made heavier.
1t makes citizens of all foreign born
white habitants who have been residents
of the State one year prior to the 18th of
June 1862

WELL TO THE DREAM.

Farewell to the dream

Where the sunbeams dwell.

Like the dew drops ofheaven.

And meath my sad willow
Rear roses tomorrow.
Come on the soft wing
Ofzephyrs mt even,
With the odors offspring
And the music of heaven.

From these fountains below.

And calling back purcst.

A gossipping club is said to have been
formed down east, for the purpose of more
effec:ually ascertainging the business of
other people generally. 1t has already
attained large membership, and promises
to become Furnishing institution. The
following are some of the rules:
Any member of the society who shall be
convicted of knowing more of his own
business than an0ther's, shall be expelled
from the society without a hearing.
No member shall set down to his own
tatle, until he has ascertained to a certain
ty, what his neighbors, within the three
doors of each side of the house, shall have
to est-whetber they have paid for the
same, and if not, if they expect to.
Every member who shall see two or
three perspns engaged in conversation,
shall place himself between them until he
has heard all they have to say, and report
the same.
Every member who shall see gentle
man visiting young lady more than two
times shall circulate the news that they're
going to be married, and said members are
required to report all manner of things
about the gentlemen to the lady, and ditto
about the lady to the gentlemen. This
will break up matches and afford much
gossip.
