announced his subject before the old man fell

John Morgan and six of his captains have
escaped from the Ohio Penitentiary and fed

mand.
Congress met on the 7th, and elected Mr..
Colfax Speaker on the first ballot. The Pres

Of slaves an accomplished fact in the districts
to which his proclamation offreedom applies,

new and original with himself; no details Of
the plan are stated. This express brings

The Age of Man.

Few men die of age. Almost all persons
die of disappointment, passion, mental or bod
ily toll, or accident. The passions kill men
sometimes even suddenly. The common ex-
preston, "choked with passion" has little en-
ageration in it, for even though not suddenly
fatal, strong passions shorten life. Stronghold
led men often die young weak men live long,
er than the strong, for the strong use their
strength, and the weak have none to use. The
latter take care of themselves the former do
not. AS it is with the body, so it is with the
the mind and temper. The strong are apt TO
break, or like the candle, run the weak burn
out The inferior animals which live temper
ate lives have generally their prescribed term
of years The horse lives twenty-five years !;
the hog ten or twelve; the rabbit eight; the
Guinea pig six or seven. They number all their
proportion to the time the animal takes to grow
to its full size. But man, of all animals, is one
that seldom comes to the average He ought
to live hun lred years, according to this ply
siological law, for five times twenty are one
hundred; but instead of that, he scarcely reach
es an average of two times the growing period.
The reason is obvious--man is not only the
most irregular and the most incorporate, but
the most laborious and hard worked of all an
imals, and there is reason to believe, though
we cannot tell what an animal scarcely feels,
that, more than any other animal, man cher
ishes wrath to keep it warm, and consumes
himself in the fire of his own reflections.

The Little Reign of Terror.
An Historical Remsniscence.

During the administration of John Adam
occurred what was then called the "Reign
Terror" but which may now be called the "ht
Ne Reign of terror" in comparison to wha
we have experienced and are still doomed t
witness under the warlike administration o.
Abraham Lincoln. An attack was then mad
by the mob on the newspaper press; but onl
three out Of all the papers Published in til
country were actually threatened with violence
viz: the Philadelphia aurora, edited by VII
LIAM DUANE; democratic paper in Reaiing
edited by JoHN SNYDER; and the Trenton True
american, edited by JAMES JEFFERSON WILL
son. 41'
We know that the ''huh Reign Of Terror"
did not last long, and that Jefferson was tri-
umphantly elected over his Federal rival as soon
as the people had chance TO express their alb
horrence of the Reign of Terror. and Of the A
lien and Sediton Laws at the ballot-hox. Can
the great Reign OF Terror, in which every press
of the country is threatened with destruction
or coniscation, and The editors with the dam
geon and court martials, have any other Sc
quel?

No PARrY.-The New York World, alluding
to demand of the Administration organs that
there shall be a suspension of all party action
until the war closes, says:
ga course of proceedings has been tried, and
it will not work. There was no party, or prac-
tically none, for the irst eighteen months Of the
war, and see what came of it. Arbitrary ar
rests, suppressions of newspapers, unbridled ex-
ercse of power, administrative weakness, fanata
icism in high places, failure in the field, and
corruption in all the departments of the govern
ment. The American people have had quite
enough of this and hereafter there must lie an
opposition party--not, of course, to embarrass
the progress of the war, but to keep the gov
ernment on the right track, to oppose abuses
and sternly hold the military powers to their
vast responsibilities,

The Civil War in the Vendee.

The civil war in the Vendee, which involved
the greater part of Poitou, part of A,you and
a portion of Bretagne, never extended over the
one-fortieth part of France; yet it involved
loss of nearly seven armies. One hundred and
fifty thousand Vendeeans fell in mighty strug-
gle, which for time puzzled the best Generals
of the French Republic. 1t commenced very
soon after the breaking out of the Revolution,
and was carried on with varied success by the
insurgents and the Republican armies. Robes
pierre ordered the Vendee to be DESTROYED by fire
and sword, and the army despatched against il
received the name of the mceadiaryarm Yet
the Vendee was not subdued, and after the
Jacobins were driven from power and their
leaders sent to the guillotine, Carnot caused,
on the I'd December, 1894, a proclamation to
be issued offering the Insurgents terms of peace
and general pardon. At the same time De-
putiss of the National Convention entered into
negotiations with Charette, one of their leaders,
on the 18th February, 1893, and with Stofiiet,
who commanded another division of insurgents,
on the I'd day of May following. A general
amnesty, compensation for the destruction of
their property, exemption from military service,
and religious federation were offered and ac-
cepted, and for time Ia Vendee was paci-
fed.
The Vendeeans again rose against Napoleon
in 1904, and were with great difficulty sdbdued
They rose again when they heard of the des
truction Of the great army in Russia After
Napoleon's return from Elba, they once more
took up the sword ''for their king and their
religion" and were only finally subdued on the
day Napoleon lost the battle of Waterloo, In

the insurrectionary movement of the Vendee
was soon suppressed.
Napoleon Ill. has won the people of Ven
dee, Anjou, Poitou and Bretagne by the most
studied kindness, and the population of these
provinces are now reckoned among the most
reliable Bonapartists in all France. When the
last Italian war broke out, the Emperor had
no occasion to station single additional regi-
ment in any of these old revolutionary proyin-
ccs.--Age HI

Now, my darling, l, thy mother,

Waste thy little life away.
Famine makes thy mother reckless,
Hope and joy are gone for me,

And my brain is sore oppressed;

Wan and feeble to my breast.
Patience, baby, God will help us.
Death will come to you and me;
