inflammation of the brain, LILLY D., daughter
of WILLIAMS S. and MARTHA j. QUAINTANoE, aged
one year and seven months.
How sad is the home of the parents of this
lovely al interesting child. The flower lust
budding into beauty, has been transplanted to
more genial cline, where no adverse winds will
mar It's loveliness, but where it win bloom in
eternal sunshine. Though we feel the loss deep
ly. what is it compared to the Father, Mother,
Sister and Brother, who bereft of one so dear
ly beloved. To you we would not say weep not
but with your tears remember she has gone be-
fore to lure you on TO glory's bright reward. A
home has lost its light but Heaven has gained
an Angel. Truly our gems are falling, but it is
because God is making up his jewels. In far
off happier cline, where winters never come
where chilling winds never known, little
LILLY is blooming, an exotic too rare for earth
q thing Joy eternal in thu Heavens. May the
dear parents be enabled to bow submissively to
this affective dispensatIon, saying with one of
old: 1.-The Lord gave and the Lord has taken
away. Blessed be the name-of The Lord.n
Rest thee little LILLY rest thee;
ALI thy earthly woes are DER,
Fever shall no more distress thee;
Thy little head shall acLe no more.

1t possible that the people will permit tnis
horrid madness to last much longer" we
can no more answer that question than we
can tell how long the spasms OF maniac
may last. The madness of war grows on
what it feeds on. A people who were mao
enough to allow themselves to begin sucn
a war, may allow it to go on until IN elci-
full exhaustion at last terminates their l''es
all together. The people at almost every
nation have many times allowed themselves
to be utterly ruined by wars whlcn were
wsged to crafty the ambition or malice of
a few unprinciped cheftains. ln the last
year Of the sixteenth century the people OF
France carried on wars until they literally
reduced themselves to SIX eletons. Chatau-
BRAND. in his Etudes Htstoique, draws this
picture o. the hord mseres which they
endured to still carry on war:
cater feeding on all sorts of animals,
cats, dogs, and such like, and skins of these
animals. after devouring children. they
ground the bones Of the dead, and used the
dust in place of fleur. This bread preser
we'd its virtue, those who eat it died.
Thirty thousand persons fell in this way at
last. The streets were strewed with dead
bodies, the dying crawled in amongst
them"
Good God! one would think that this
experience would have lasted France forev
er; but it did not. For in the midd. Re of thu
next century we see the mass of the people

Republican Convention at Cleveland


|. CLEVELAND, May 30, IL. P. M.-Judging
from the nu mber of delegates already in and
those represented on the way, the conven-
ton tomorrow will be composed of sew err
al hundred delegates. There are many
MissouriaDs in attendance. but the delega-
tons from Illinois, lowe, Arkansas Ohio and
Pennsylvania are also large; Michigan,
Wisconsin, Minnesota, Kansas, New York,
New Jersey and Massachusetts, are also rep
resented. but not largely.
The Germans have delegates from twelve
States, some of whom h cid an informal
meeting on Sunday, when, after an inter
change of views, resolutions were adopted
aga INST Lincoln 10 favor of Fremont; against
suppression of the press and in favor of right
OF trial by jury. and protesting against any
lnfringment upon this rights as destructive
OF American liberty, also in favor of amen
olns the constitution To prohibit slavery
anu Tor the Monroe doctrine, and the one
term principle as absolutely necessary to
check corruption Apparently none Of the
delegation OF War Democrats from New
7 ork favor the nomination Of Grant with
Fremont Tor Vice-President. They argue
that victory in Virginia next month will
secure the endorsement. of this ticket at
Chicago. On the other hand, the Fremon-
tiers say that they want man whose polit-
ical record is well defined and known TO tn g
country, aud who has positive strength -
This they claim for their candidate, and
profess to believe he is likely to be eudors-
ed at Chicago as is General Grant.
The indications are that Grants nam g
will be withdrawn, and that of Fremont
will be nominated without opposition.
Several are named for Vice President,
among them Gen. Cochran, Geo. w. Cass,
Gratz Brown, Gen. Logan, Gov. Andrews
and Gen. Rosscrans Cochran is the stron-
! gest to- might.
The platform will be substantially that
adopted by the Germs ans. as indicated above
| On the points set forth there seems to be no
material diversity Of opinion.
Comptroller Robinson OF New York, has
written letter strongly favoring the nomi-
patton of Grant.
Parker Pillsbury brings with him letter
from Wendell Phillips, expressing regret at
his inability to attend the Convention, aud
complaining that the Administration is a
failure, tbecause it has weighed treasure
against blood, and civil liberty against sla-

il Mr.. Lincoln is reelected. he is re-elec-
ted to pursue The same policy, and to obey
the same cabinet. He deprecates the
Louisiana reconstruction experiment, and
contends that the only plan Of reconstruc-
ton within twenty years, is to admit the
black to citizen ship, and use him with the
| white as the basis of States. He closes by
fsvoring the nomination OF Fremont or But

DARING RoBBERY.-One of the boIdest
and most daring robberies that has ever
been perpetrated in the city took place yes
terday afternoon, at DUNES extensive
jewelry store, on the corner of Fourth and
Walnut streets. 1t appears that some
sharpsrs initiating the the habit of a num-
Der of Mr.. Duhme's customers. by calling in
to compare their watches with the clock
regulators. had gone farther in making use of
the freedom Of the store, than is generally
known.
1t is supposed that some person thus en-
gagged. apparently taking advantage of the
absence of the proprietors and clerks in the
rear of the store, quickly but carefully
opened a door of the showcase in which
the diamond rings, pins. breaches &c were
exhibited through the front show window,
for the benefit of passers by on the street.
The sharper took out a tray containing
fo'ty-etght diamond rings, and secretirg the
same under bis coat. as is supposed, leisur-
ly left the store. The value of the prop
erty stolen is estimated at about SIP Co.,
Cincinnati Enquirer.
