RoBBING A BRIDE OF HER BED.-The St.
Louis Democrat has the following AT Lay
ers boarding house, in this city, an unusual
wedding came off on Tuesday night, and the
dance was prolonged till one O'Clock in the
morning. The bride and groom then repaired
to their apartment, but-horribte risu-the
bed and bedding had been sacriigously stolen
from the nuptial chamber. Some vindictive
wretch had gained felonious ingress at the
history of matrimony. 1t is conjectpred that
so fell vengeance could only have been devised
and executed by some disappointed lover of
the bride.
Lives there a man with soul so dead
Who never TO himself hath said,
The scamp who stole the bridal bed
Deserves TO die and live unwed
With maidens old to punch his head.

able time, and no one else com
ing, they concluded to adjOura
until the Democratic Convention
to he held in a few days. Thus
that meeting of the Conservative
Republicans and Democrats now
stands adjourned to meet with the
Democratic Convention. Ii we
had not seen so much before Of
their doings, we could scarcely
believe that men who had stood
before the country as Republi-
cans-men who labored vigor-
ously to elect Lincoln and inau-
gurate the present Republican
administ-ation-could now turn
around and offer to fuse with the
Sth OF January men, the enemies
of the Government. And what
for? To defeat the man who has
been unanimously nominated by
the people for Copgrsss-Mr. Ju-
liam, who. every one knows that
is corversant with the doings Of
the past session OF Congress, stood
/ the hole term, the noble, un-
compromising friend OF the Gov
ernment, by his votes and by his
speeches sanctioned every meas
ure that would strengthen the
hands OF the President, and furn-
ish men and money 70 put down
this unholy rebellion, brought a
bout by the action of the very
men with whom taese Republi
cans now offer to fuse. Shame
on such 'political chicaneryp'
By their action, the contest is
narrowed down to a very limited
platform. We have Eow TO choose
between Johnson, an oGt-and-out
Slh ol-Japuary man, and Mr.. Ju-
liaG, the man who has been tried
and found faithful to the high
trust reposed in him in the past
HIS record is before the people,
and the higA-toped moral obliga-
Zion which naS marked his course
In tie recent Congress, gives pro-
mise OF like faithful adherence
to principle in the future.
Now, let me appeal to the vo-
ters Of this district to look well to
the matte1 let there be. no neu-
trail ground; there Is none. "No
one can sairk responsibility by
staying away and not voting,
and saying they are neutral. Ev-
cry vote thrown away is 2 hall
vote for treason. And now, when
our COUNTRY is on tae brinA OF ru-
in, Will YOU send a man 10 Con
gre>S who will give "aid and
comfort to the enemy<' You can
not trust such a man with the
libeRies and the lie of a free
people. Johnson'S antecedents
are such that we know ne Is uot
the man to represent TIE Burnt
District, and row it is for the Re-
publicanS and ali true Union
men to say what shall be done.
Let not one Of US be found sleep
ing at our posts, but rather let us
he on the watch tower to see that
our district is not disgraced by
our lStleSSness or want OF eff
cheney. There is but a short time
to work. Let W. show our appre-
citation Of his efforts by returning
Mr.. Julian to Congress.
