Of the joint resolution Of July. 1861, to punish

It proposes that forfettures- shall not extend
beyond the life Of the offender, and that the
Presidents proclamation Of July, 1862, shall be
q sufficient warning in all cases now pending,
or which may hereafter arise.
Mr. Wilson explained that tho courts could
decide whether the forfeiture shall be in fee or
only during the life Of the offender. The bill
merely submitted to them the constitutional
provision, and the question whether estates
shall be forfeited In fee or only during the Nfe-
time Of the offender. =
Mr.. Herman opposed the pending proposition,
believing the present laws to be sufficient and
further Legislation only calculated to confuse.
He said the forfeiture could extend only to the
life OF the offender.
The subject was laid over.

The Democracy Must Have New Leaders.

We have con;ended ever since the COM
the country would not enjoy peace again
nor the Union be restored until the demo-
cratic party should succeed in the elections
aud once more WELD the power of the Gov
eminent. We have also contended that
the party would never sncceed while the
leaders made ii war party, and SO tar our
predictions have proved true.
The Democratic party has been led for
She last few years by men, who did not
care a straw whether the principals laiG
down by the party at It's conventions tend
ed TO the continuance OF our Tree institutions
or 10 their overthrow and the establishment
Of monarchy.
They never asked the question 'whither
are we tending @ nor did thew care SO long
as they saw chance for Office, lhro' the
adoption Of wisha washa, non-commital
platform, upon which they could safely ride
in TO the heaven OF a good fat Office,
If we wall look back but few years we
will not fail TO discover the class of men
who are always on hand al Democratic
Conventions, and who shaped the policy OF
the party regardless 0: principle go that the
policy adopted gave them prospec, OF re.
tanning or getting into Office. We believe
| that the men, with few exceptions, who
claimed to be most Intensely Democratic,
aud who had been supported and paid the
best by he Democratic parry, proved 10 be
/ ,b. 10 .Ea fria al
! came, and were the first to show The white
/ feather when The minons of fansticism
made vigorous charge upon the Demo-
cratic ranks. So long as they were permits
led to shape he policy OF The party, aud SO
long as patriotism consisted in the adop
iions OF resolutions, they were so far as
outward appearance was concerned, espe-
cially sound" but when the time come
for them 10 show their faith by their works
they proved 10 be perfectly rotten.
When the day OF trial came-when the
( Union was to be saved through compromise,
or destroyed by Civil War, they either fell
over into the Abolition party, or standing
non commilal, showed themselves 10 be
both towards and traitors-cowafds, be-
cause they dare not maintain the right,
and traitors, because they submitted to,
and deieuded the wrong.
These men still claim to be Democrats,
and so far have succeeded in engrahing
their policy and weak kneed policy upon
every Democratic Platform adopted by our
Stale Conventions, and SO far the Democray
have been overwhelmed with disgraceiul
defeats. This fact corvinces as, that the
parry must have new leaders. Men must
be selected as leaders OF the party, who
will boldly proclaim the will and wishes OF
The masses men who will advocate Peace,
as a means OF restoring the IInion. and will
prove upon every stump throughout lbe
broad land, that, "WAR is DISUNlON,
FINAL ETERNAL"
With such men, and only st,ch, for leaders
the Democracy wil ultimately succeed and
then, aud then, aud not until then, will the
Union be restored.

For the Star OF the NORTH.
THE SEASONS.

Spring is the time when flowers
Bedeck the youthful path,
That scauers lar hose gloomy hours,
Caused by The stormy blast.
Oh pleasant Spring TO thee,
Our songs will We upraise
And as thy bounleous pleasures fee
Our songs we'll not delay
But when spring pleasures all depart,
Are there no others near?
Yes, Summer with cheerful heart,
Our youthful path will cheer.
But Summer, too, with all its charms
VIII, like the Spring, decline,
And all liz pleasures and alarms
Will cheerfully resign.
Then Autnmn with its cooling breeze
Will ian our fainungy brow,
When pleasant Summers verdant leaves
Are dropping from their bough.
But Autumn. like the Summer bower,
To cooler seasons cede,
And long bul cheering winter hours
Well hail with noble deed.
An Winter ystmay have pang,
Al present nol perceived.
For cold and icy letters hang,
Which We canEol relieve.
But Winter pleasures must depart
As warmer days appear,
Thus as revolving seasons pass
We greet another year.
TUMBLER.
