took about four days 10 get back. When
we got there we found the boat stove very
bad since we left her. We then left her
and went back again to the other side of
the island, 10 remain there until we should
die or be picked up. We ate our belts,
boots, and sheaths, and number of bear
and sealsk:n articles we had with as. To
add to our misery, it commenced to rain.
and kept it up for three days; it then be-
gan to snow. In this miserable condition
we were picked up by boats crew OF
Esqumaux on the Goth of September, and
brought to Okoke on the Sd of October
The missionaries did all that lay in their
power to help us along, and provided us
with food and clothing, then sent rs on
to Main, where we met tine doctor Davis

were. He reported that his companion

Calmness of the Administration

The Cincinnati Commercial thus dis
courses upon the quietude of those now in
power at the national capitol:
The authorities at Washington are calm.
1t is delicious TO learn that the most lofi =
confidence is felt in almost everything.
The rebel flag can no longer be seen from
the dome of the Capitol. II is true that
when jeff. Davis comes up to review his
troops at Centreville. the deep mouthed
welcome Of the rebel guns put the air in
treuor. But that does not affect the
nerves of the President and his Cabinet,
and other great and good men. We are
glad to know that Washington is calm.
So settled habit has this 'quietrde in Of
fetal circles'--this steady reliance upon
Providence. &c.--become. that even the
war news from England that startled the
whole country as if an earthquake thun-
dered by-failed to disturb the equarimi-
ty of our serene rulers, and the intelligence
of a panic in New York was voted anu.
sing. How happy are they who, by the
recollection of we'll spent lives, and the
consciousness of having in the rectiude
of their intentions an unfailing source o.
philosophical and religious consolation,
are lifted above the accidents of time.

More Suspension.

Orders have been given TO the subtreasur-
ers to suspend Tor the present the redemp-

Notes. and the treasury department in

notes instead of gold. Affairs certainly
look squally.--we see the beginning of
the end but what the end is TO be WHO

General Suspension Of the Eastern
Banks,

Dispatches have been received here an
nouncing the astounding fact that all the
banks in the cities Of Boston, New York,
and Philadelphia, suspended specie pay
ments this day ! The ostensible reason
given is. that it is done to check the flow
of specie from this country, which for a
short time back has been rather large.
The matter has been in contemplation for
some two or three weeks, but we were in
hopes it would not have been considered
necessary 10 resort to so hazardous an ex-
periment.-F. Wayne Sentinel 3OM uit.

The Old Home.

When | long for sainted memories,
Like angel troops they come,
If l fold my arms to ponder
On the old, old home.
The heart has many passages
Through which the feelings roam.
But its centre is sacred
To the old, old home.
Where infancy was sheltered,
Like rosebuds, from the blast;
Where boyhood's brief elysium
In joyousness was passed;
To that sweet spot forever,
As to some hallowed dome,
Life's pilgrim bends mis- vision
To his old, old home.
A father sat, how proudly,
BY that hearthstOne's rays,
And told his children stories
OF his early manhood's days;
And ore soft eye was beaming.
From child to child 'twould roam;
Thus a mother counts her treasures
In the old, old homd.
The birth-dry gifts and festivals,
The blended vesper hymn.
Zone dear one who was swelling it
Il with the seraphim.)
The "good nights at bedtime,
iiow quiet sleep would come.
And hold us all together,
In the old old home.
Like n wreath of scented flowers,
Close intertwiDed each heart.
But time and change in concert,
Have blow the wreath apart.
Bnt saint Inories,
Like lis, ever come,
III lft arms and ponder

The Indiana Democratic State Con.
VcntiOn.


The democracy of other States have
awaited with more than common interest
the proceedings OF the democratic State
convention Of Indiana, report of the es-
sential parts OF which is contained in this
sheet. No doubt the convention in its
resolutions has expressed the plain demo
cratic sentiment Of the State. and the
democratic sentiment of the whole North,
we are confident. is in harmony with this.
We direct attention to the resolutions.
Their emphasis throughout is as admirable
as their doctrine. They state the relation
of the demacratic party, past and present,
to the national difficulties and fix mmova-
bly, upon the Republican party its true
responsibility for the origin. development
and progress Of those difficulties. Not.
withs.andng that the Democratic party
has stood in the attitude of perpetual pro.
test against the causes and warning :he
coming of the catastrophe, it appreciates
its duty. and will perform it, of banishing
all passion and resentment, and devotinr
itself to the repair of mischief done. But
there is only one way. in the estimation O!
the Democracy Of Indiana. in which the
mischief can be repaired. and that is such
a conduct of the war as will bring into the
ascendant Union party in the South
Chicago Times

New Hampshire Republican State
Convention.

CONCORD, n. Fl. Jan. Z.
The New Hampshire republican State
convention to-day nominated Gov. Berry
for reelection DR.. Crosby. of Hanover,
democrat, received the nomination for
Railroad Commissioner.
Resolutions were adopted sustaining the
government in prosecuting the war; en-
dorsing the national administration; de-
manding strict economy; endorsing the
Stale authorities; thanking the volunteers
for their devotion; and promising TO sup
port the candidates nominated, without
regard to party issues.

Position Of the Democracy.

The democracy will support the pres
ent or any other war for the following pur-
poses:
To put down rebellion.
To enforce the laws.
To uphold the honor of the stars and
stripes
10 support the Constitution.
To maintain the Union.
is there any secession in this? Will
the Republicans do more? They can do
no more and do right.

BY MARGARET ELLIOTT.
As wandered, weak and weary,
Through the desert dark and dreary,
Through the dry and arid desert of my life's tenn
pestrous way,
sail nv soul looked, never fearing,
For the star whose bright appearing,
Should illume it, turn its daenness into full AND
glorious day.
And watchedits first faint cleaning
On the distant hill tops beaming,
Till its radiance fled the valley and outshone the
rising morn;
Then my soul said am blessed,
Bat the words not half expressed
All the bliss the JOY triumphant, that OF darkest
grief was born.
And its radiance ne'er declining,
Ger my pathway still is shining,
Lifting me from out the shadows; crowning me
with wondrous light,
And my life is filed with beauty,
For each stern and thorny duty
Stands transfgured with fair blossoms which no
cloud nor storm can blight.

A SONG.
NY name it is Joe Bowers
I've got a brother Ike,
Icame from old Missouri.
Yes, all the wav from Pike,
I'll tell YOU why left there.
And how 4 came to roam.
And leave my dear old mamma,
So far away from home.
i used to court pretty gal,
Her name was Sally Back:
asked her if she'd marry me,
Says she, "Ir is a whackr"
SAYS she to me, "Joe Bowers,
Before We hitch for life,
You'd better get little home.
For to keep your little wife,"
On. Sally. dearest Sally,
Oh Sally for your sake,
I'll 90 to California,
And try to raise stake.
Saws she to- me, 'Joe Bowers,
Yon are the man to win
Here's kiss to seal the bargain"
And she gave "a dozen IN.
When I got to California,
hadn't ''nary red."
/ had such wolfish feelings,
almost wished me dead.
Sut when thought of Sally dear,
Kind feelings would get
They whispered hopes to Bowers,
I'll make my fortune yet.
At last went to mining
Put in the biggest licks,
came down upon the boulders,
Just like thousand bricks.
i worked both late and early,
Through sun and rain and snow;
Twas working for my Sally dear
Twas all the same to Joe.
At last got letter
From my dear brother Ike,
1t came from old Missonri-
Yes, all the way from Pike;
1t had the darnedst news i'm
That ever you did hear.
Now, Gentlemen and Ladies,
You'll please excuse this tear.
The letter it did state that
Sally's love for me had fled
She was courted by butcher,
And the bucther's hair was red,
Ill tell you what il il,
It's enough to make one swear,
For Sally had baby.
And the baby had-red hair.
