The Democratic Party and the
Philadelphia Convention.

In the North, the Democratic party is
virtually dead as controlling force. 1t has,
indeed, large vote. 1t disputes three or
four States; but it is generally defeated in
them, and always in the others. The rea.
son is that the Democratic party is merely
a permanent reaction and protest against
progress and reform, and as the public opn-
ion Of the Northern States is educated and
intelligent, it instinctvely distrusts and re.
.jects it, Hence, also, the steady and uni,
form opposition of the Democratic party to
the elevation and education Of the colored
population at the South. Every school.

To educate the whole population of South

emancipate those States from the Demo.

Western papers give the particulars of the
mobbing Of Methodist minister in Scott
county, Ky. the announcement of which
was teGgraphcd several days ago. We take
the following account of the disgraceful
affair from the Cincinnati Gazctte:
The Kentucky Conference Of the Metho-
dist Episcopal Church, in electng a mis-
sionary to labor among the freedmen Of its
State, was careful to avoid every probable
cause of offence to the whites A colored
preacher was not appointed, and young men,
WHO might be rash, were passed by. The
person chosen was the Rev. r. G. Gardiner,
who, having been d travelling preacher in
Kentucky for thirty years, might reasonably
be expected to understand the duties of the
position and the character Of the inhabitants
Mr.. Gardiner went 10 work zealously, yet
carefully. lie preached no political ser.
mons, and confined himself to the strict
line of his ministerial Office.
On Friday of last week he arrived in
Georgetown, Scott county, one of the most
thoroughly Rebel places in the State, and
the residence of Judge Duvall, the secession
candidate for Clerk Of the Court of Appeals
The missionary soon found that his presence
was very annoying to the Rebels. The
minister of the Southern Methodist Church,
a man who once took the oath of loyalty
and kept it by going off to Dixie, felt
especially sore. On Sunday evening, just
after Mr. Gardiner had concluded sacra,
mental service at the colored church. this
worthy walked in, attended by two kindred
spirits, and told the congregation that his
church had loved them very much but that
as they had left that organization for the
Northern Church they could have the use of
their house of worship no longer.
The next morning men We're sent to force

the country. In the other, it took up arms,
and having been defeated, will now betake
itself there also to argument and the ballot
and it remains for the intelligence and pu-
bic virtue and political faith of the country
to accept the battle in this form also, and
complete the victory. The Democratic
party conld not save slavery nor the rebel
lion, but it can still strike few blows for
ignorance and unequal rights. 1t will not
change its name. and it cannot change its
nature. In Difference to Mr. Weed and his
friends at Philadelphia it may call itself
Union Democratic, or Democratic Nationals:
but it will still be the Democratic party
The " Last Rose of Summer" is nothing
but "The Groves of Barney" played slow
ly. The party may not make Mr.. Ben Wood
or his virtuous brother President of the
Philadelphia Convention. But it is still the
organized reaction against the development
of the American doctrine of equal liberty. ~-
1t will still flatter and fawn upon the ignor
ance of white foreigners, and still dcspise
and curb, if it can, the aspiring intelligence
of native Americans of every race Its
present opportunity is the Philadelphia Con
vention. 1t will elect the delegates, and
control its policy and, like the dcxtrous
executioner who cut off the victims head so
exquisitely that he did not know it until he
moved, so it will absorb with greedy polite
ness those who have sought and failed to
control the Union party as they likewise
sought and failed to control Abraham Lin
coins administration. -Harper's Hcchly

The Illusions of Life.

In lfe's gay morn when starting fair
Meath friendly skies, through balmy air,
No clouds we see, no tempest lowers,
No sorrows damp our joyous hours.
SO free our youthful minds from care
No lines Of thought our temples wear;
And as through life we onward move
We all things real hope to prove.
But soon, alas delusive cheat!
We find much " chaff,' but little wheat
Much surface glitter, pomp, and show,
With little genuine worth below.
Fashions bchests must be obcycd,
Whate' er the sacrifices made,
And many struggle with their lot,
Wishing to appear what they are not,
BY parentage. or favored birth,
BY talents, wealth, or moral worth
While those of rank they fan would share
Detect the cunning guise they wear;
And men of serse the arts dcspise,
BY means of which they pass for wise;
Their pedantry expose to shame,
And rob them of the scholars fame.
so when man for selfish ends
TO moral excellence pretends,
His name and influence shall fall
Like Sceva sons in time of Paul.
The upright are too rarely found,
While "whited scpulchres" abound,
As tricks of Pharisaic art,
Reforming life without the heart.
Happy the youth whose ''-singe" eye
Rcgards.the ways of the Most High;
Does from the multitude refrain,
And seek eternal life to gain,
Not by blind homage to the pride of man,
But by submission to the gospel plan;
Owning no Savior but the Lamb Of God.
Washing to wilderness in his precious blood
Thus gain by losing, live by death to sin,
And child Of grace eternal glory win;
His faith enduring till the time to die
Shall make him welcome to his home on high

longing to the NJ. L. Church being locked
up in it. The Church South has technically
right to the house, as its colored builders,
| having been slaves, were obliged to vest the
title in white trustees. The latter, without
the knowledge of their wards, made it over
to the Southern Church.
On Monday night the Southern preacher
and his friends visited the church, and were
much reioiced to find that their lock had not
been tempered with. Shouts were raised
and revolvers fred to express their gratif-
cation, and to intimdate their victims.
Matters were not to end here. On Tues,
day evening a returned rebel soldier handed
black boy written order, to deliver to
Mr.. Gardiner, directing Mr.. Gardiner to
leave town Immediately. OF this he took
no notice, as he was lying sick with q bilious
attack, for which he had taken a dose of
mercury. About ten o'clock while Mr.. G.
the outskirts of the town, a knock was heard
at the door. His host opened it, when he
was Immediately seized, taken out and
guarded by part of a body of men, with their
faces blackened and otherwise disgused.-
The gang then went in doors, surrounded
Mr.. Gardiner, and, with pistols cooked and
pointed at him, threatened his life They
also ordered him to leave the house, retus-
ing him time to finish dressing. They drag,
ged him some distance, swearing at him,
and talking of tar and feathers, lynching,
&c.
Finally, they took him down hill, and
forced him over stone wall into IA very
muddy creek plunging him under the water
until he was aearly strangled. The lady of
the house, who had followed them out. in
vain implored them to spare him. They,
however, at last let him go without inHictiug
any mortal injury. There were about a
dozen of the rutiians, several of them being
graduates Of the Rebel army This is only
a specimen of what would be done in the
other districts were the disloyal proportion
of the community so overwhelmingly large
as it is Scott county.
