Husbands and their Wives.

Some husbands never leave home in the
morning without kissing their wlvesand bid
ding them good bye" in the tones Of un-
wearied love; and whether it be. policy or
fact. it has the effect of fact, and those homes
are generally pleasant ones, providing always
that the wives are appreciatlve, and welcome
the discipline in a kindly spirit. We know
an old gentleman who lived with his wife
over fifty years, and never left home without
the kiss and the goodbye, DEAR Some
husbands before leaving home, ask very
tenderlv. ssWhat would you like for dinner,
my dear p knowing all the while that she
will select something for his particular palate,
and off he goes.
Some husbands will leave home without
saving anything at all, but thinking good
deal. as evinced by their turning round at the
last point of observation, and waving an
adieu at the pleasant face or tacesat the WIN
dow. Some husbands never say a word, RS
ing from the breakfast table with the lofty
Indifference of a lord, and going out with a
heartless disregard of those left behind. Lit
is fortunate thing for their wives that they
can find sympathy elsewhere. Some hus,
bands never leave home withoutsome unklnd
word or look, apparently thinking chat such
a course will keep things straight IN their a6-
sence Then, on returning, some husbands
come home jolly and happy, unsecured by
the world, some sulky and surly with disap-
pointments.
Some husbands bring home a newspaper
or a book. and bury themselves for the eve
ming in its contents. Some husbands are
called away every evening by business or so
cial engagements; some doze in speechles'
stupidity ona sofa until bedtime. Some hus
bands are curious to learn Of theirwives wha
has transpired through the day; Others are
attracted at nothing short of achild falling III
down stairs or the house taking fire. De
pend uponit, ysDr. Spooner,. that home
is the happiest where kindness, interest, po
Iiteness and attention is shown-of cours'
ali the RESPONSIBILITIES rest with them, ant
temptation finds no footing there.

kind, than when, several years ago, on the
Fourth of July, in the presence of great
assembly, we committed to the flames the
Constitution of the United States"
Mr.. Horace Greeley is also among the glo-
rious company of patriots who have been
shocked at the REASONABLE utterances of the
President Long ago Mr.. Greeley said
''All nations have their superstitions and
that of our people is the Constitution.
And in his Tribune, of June 18th, 1854,
published the following lode to the Ameri-
can flag.
IAN hail the h7urting lie
The stars grow pale and dim,
The stripes are bloody scars,
A lie the vauntiug hymn.
Il shields pirates deck.
II binds a man in chains.
II yokes the captive's neck,
And wipes the bloody stains.
Tear down the haunting lie;
Il alf mast the starry flag
Insult no sammy sky
W Ith hates polluted rag
Destroy it. ye who can,
Deep sink it in the waves,
1t bears a fellow man
To groan with fellow slaves.
FurI the beasted lie
Till freedom lives again,
To rule once more in truth,
Among unit ramnelled men,
Roll up the starry sheen
Conceal 1t bloody stains
For in its folds
The stamp of rustling chains !"
Now all these leading Abolition Traitors
are pretending great veneration for the flag,
and act with, what is mis-called the Union
but truly named the disInion party
May the people read Democratic papers,
speeches, &C., then will they get their eyes
open and see clearly. JEFFERSON.

COMMUNICATIONS.
GubernatoriaI.-No. 8.

EDITORS DEMOCRAT & &STAR:-Ianxious-
ly await the trial and eagerly anticipate the
result of the Gubernatorial contest in Penn
sylvania. The indications of success are
certainly upon the side of the Democracy,
and that good old party will again anchor
the noble ship Of State safely in It's destined
haven. Defeated, oft they realize the say
ing, that
The eternal years Of G cd are hers
Bur error, wounded .wriihes in pain.
And dies amidst her followers"
Every lover of the Law, the Union, and
the Constitution, in this great Commonwealth
desires the election Of HESTER CLYMER.
Every sycophant at the foot OF power, ac-
-customed to bending the pregnant hinges
of the. knee that thrift may follow fawning,
on the other hand, viii support John w.
Geary. 1t will, indeed, be a contest betwixt
the friends of free government and the enc
mics Of our common liberties.
Speaking Of white men rights, l would
ask where are they, and what Is our hope IN
the interest Of the Curtin Cameron-tOrney-
disunionists2 The last disunion Legislature
of this State, passed a billie direct C5OLG-
ton of all Consultations -disfranchising de-
serters andnon-reportingd gdrafted men. This
iniauiticus bill has been signed by Gov Cur
tin What now viii those of our democrat
&c members OF that DOdy say, who, Just be-
fore the adiornment, recorded their votes ap-
proving of Curtin administration
This act of abolition legislation, like their
support of the negro-suffrage bill, is another
.eeregious wrong upon the rights of white
citizens, and gives the lie to all their preten-
s1ed partially for impartial suffrage. 1t
matters little, however, that thousands of
honest men may be deprived of their just
rights, as citizens, at the ballot box, so far
as Geary's chances are concerned next fall.
The disunion candidate will be defeated
next fall by an immense majority, every
species of rascality, disunion, and outrage,
BY the Winnebago tribe, to the contrary not
Withstanding.
Fellow Democrats, charge upon our wick
ed and treacherous enemies. Yours Is a
common cause Charge side by side

How he got in; at tany rate

And gave the door rap.

Your visit is appreciated"
Indeed siid George. ..rm Glad Of that
Il gives me consolation;
But tell me, Jed. what do you think
About your situationi

intends to have you tried for treason"
Where's not a doubt Of that" says Jef,
They'll have me put on iriaf
For since your time the YANKEES HAVE
BECOME ExrREAELY LOYAL
Their taxes pay. without word.
For which they damned Old George the Third.
"Buf tell me. George, how is il you
Are praised and me derided
You went in for secession,
And held slaves we'll as did.

This difference ,twixt you and me-"
!. ''Pooh. pooh" says George. "I wonder at
A man OF your discretion

And weut in for secession
And would have been the same to day.
But, don't you see IL would not pay.

With military pres aision,
And awoke and rubbed my eyes,
And found IL but vision.
Brought on by sleeping my back.
And drinking too much apple JACK.

Let it be noted that all the acts of the
President most loudly complained of by the
politicians, are in the direction of leaving
power in the hands of the people, where it
rightfully belongs. The President says you
must trust the people the Radicals say
you must not.

Want of Decision.

A great deal of labor is lost to the world
for the want of little courage Every day
sends to their graves number of obscure
men, who have only remained in obscurity
because their timidity has prevented them
from making a first effort, and who, if they
had only been induced to begin, would in all
probability have gone great lengths in the ca
reer of fame The fact is, that in doing
anything in the world worth doing, we must
not stand shivering on the bank, thinking of
the cold and danger, but jump in and scram-
bic through as well as we can. 1t will not
do to be perpetually calculating risks and ad-
justing nice chances; it did all very well
before the food, when man could consult
his friends upon an intended publication for
hundred and fifty years, and live to see its
success for six or seven centuries afterwards;
but at present a man waits and doubts, and
consults his brothers, and unces, and par
ticular friends, till one day he finds that he
is sixty-fve years of age, and that hehaslost
so much time in consulting first cousins and
particular friends thathe finds he has no more
time to follow their advice There is so hit
tie time for over squeamishness at present,
that the opportunity slips away. The very
period of life at which a man chooses to ven
ture if ever, is so confined that it is no bad
rule to preach up the necessity, in such IN
stances, of little violence done to the feel
ings, and efforts made in defiance Of strict
and sober calculations.
