Az Exchange says n woman was

ing a bonnet and reticule from lady.
She was indicted for highway robbery,
convicted and executed. Some years

Justify tho execution Of Mrs. Surratt.

SIZE Is NoTuINe. - One Of tho best
proofs that "size is no account" is the
following;
A talented young African of the

Dor poring wisely over newspaper,
whcreupon he addresses him thus:
"Julius, what de bebil you doin wild

"Go way mig: guess l kin reed /;

PRIDE.

Though pride may show some nob.ensss,
When honor 10 its ally,
Yet there il such thing on earth
As holding heads too high!
The sweetest bird builds ne ar the ground,
Tho lovliest flowers spring low,
And We must stoop for happiness, -e
IL We its worth would know.
Like water that incrusts the rose
Still hardening 70 its core, ~ &
so Pride eneases human hearts
Until they feel no more.
Shut up within themselves they live,
And selhshly they end
A life thai never kindness did
To kindred or friend! ''a
Whilst Virtue, like the dew Of Hsavcn,
Upon the heart descends, atl
And draws its hidden sweetness out
Tn more--ss more II bends!
For there's q strength in lowlinsss
Which nerves us 70 endure
A beroism in distress
Which renders victory sure.
Tho humblest being born Is great,
IL true 10 his degree rtal rf
His virtue illustrates bis fate, IfUL
Whatever that may be
Then let US daily learn to isvs
Simplicity and worth;
For not the eagle but the dove
Brought peace upon the earth.

4,l06, ,525 inhabitants, we find in 1860
n population of 10,2l9,422, and of

The BATTLE OF WATERLOO. The
London Times recently published the
following:
At Waterloo the disturber Of the
worlds peace was punished, but that
is all. The ideas which he reT resen-

founded rose again, and the ruins on
which his throne had been raised it

Coon LUcK.-Some young men talk
about luck. Good luck is to get mp
at six o'clock in the morning; good
luck, if you have only shilling a
week, is to live upon eleven pence and
save penny; good luck is 10 trouble
your head with your own business,
and let your neighbors' alone; good
luck is to fulfill the commandments,
and to do unto other people as We
wish them to do unto us. They must
not only work, but wait. They must
plod and persevere. Ponce must be
taken care of, because they are the
seeds of guineas. To get on in the
world, they must take care Of home,
sweep their own dooways clear, try
and help other people, avoid tempta-
tions, and have faith in truth and God.

The Position Of southern Unionists.

From the Albany Argus
The Raleigh Standard, lately edited
by Gov. Holden, and now conducted
by his son, may be taken as an expo
nent of. the sentiments Of the Union
men of the South. 1t declares that
in, North Carolina they are a unit in
support of this programme Of princi-
pies: y, ............f,.-lt...
Il. Unconditional cheerful submis-
sion TO the national authority. 2. The
prompt insertion in tho State Consti-
tuition by the approaching Convention
of the ordinance of '87, forever abol-
ishing slavery or involuntary sorvitude
in this State. B.. The prompt non
recognition of debts contracted by the
State in aid Of rebellion, but an equal
ly prompt determination to pay every
cent Of the State debt contracted pre-
viously to the war. A. The inviolabil-
ity ~ private contracts. and such ac-
tion by the Convention as will cure all
defects in bargains and titles since
May 20, 1861, and provide for the
payment of private debts contracted
since that date on just basis. 5. The
right Of States to determine the ques-
ton of suffrage Tor themselves
6. Unqualified opposition to what is
called negro suffrage.
Who can object to q platform OF
this kindp If faithfully adhered to,
who will ask that the Union men be
set aside and the negroes made the
predominant element in the constitu-
ency2 The reason why negro suffrage
is called for is to secure the results to
which the loyal whites pledge their
support in tho first four articles of this
programme. If fidelity to the Union,
the abolition Of slavery, the recogni-
ton of the Federal debt and repudia.
ton Of the Confederate debt be secur-
cd in the future Legislation of the re-
claimed States Of the South, who will
