No "Butcher" Need Apply.

While quite number of the smaller fry of
Democratic journals seem to be casting anxious
ly about for an &C availability candidate" for the
Presidency, we observe that the more influential
of the northern organs speak out manfully in
favor of "principle candidate" The lesser
lights are in a most distressing strait for gen.
eral to against Grant; but the Day Book,
the La Crosse Democrat with its l00,0 ,00) circu-
lation, the Examiner, and other papers of the
class, lift up their voices against any general
press terms, No butcher need apply" Says
that bright and shining light of the Northern
Democracy, g Brick Pomeroy ~ awe wish a
plain, true, outspoken candidate who is not
afraid to be Democrat We would not sup
port Grant, or such man, for all the gold or
position the nation could give us. We
will not support any of the tribe who won fame
in Lincolns war for the destruction of the
Union.' The Day Book declares "For US,
for the radical, straighout Democracy, the path
is clear and the road straight-it is, down with
Mongrelsm, with every shade of nggerism, and
restoration of the White Republic of 1860, which
we will have either through the ballot-box or
through blood, if it must be-" The Examiner
is if possible, still more explicit in its repudia
ton of any Federal butcher" as q candidate.
1t says 1.-THE next Presidential election must
be one of principle. 1t must not only be one of
principle, but the Democratic party must put
statesman-a man whose political antecedents
are we'll known-wbo has not gone off on Illicit
rove with the enemy-whose claims are not
predicated upon his success in the butchery of
his countrymen." 1t is rather curious to note
that it is the Northern Democratic organs that
are loudest in their protestations against
Butcher for a candidate. The Louisville
Courier the leading organ Of the Kentucky De-
mocracy, is for Sherman, and it tells the North
ern papers that are so over-zealous, that in the
Southern States no good Democrat sympathizes
with their violence, adding: Not even along
the desolated route of Sherman's march to the
sea can the people be made to appreciate the De-
mocracy, humanity, or patriotism, that could in
fuence an editor in the far Northwest to consign
the country to Radical and negro domination
rather than elect Sherman as the Democratic
nominee" So much more sensitive to the
wrongs of the South than the Southerners them
selves, are their Northern friends, and as much
more anxious to revive the issues of the war,
and to fight over again the battles of secession.
The Examiner is, undoubtedly, both consistent
and sincere in its fervent protest against
butcher candidate" But there is reason to
believe that in other quarters the objection re-
suits from despair of being able to find an eligi-
BILE /" butcher" who will stand on Democratic
platform If Grant had been ready to play
" Barkis,'' we think the Democracy would have
gladly met him half-way.-Dramdtic Chronicle.

Common Sense Should Teach us Better.

Are we destitute Of Sense,
Styled In Dictionaries commonf
Must we, arguing from thence,
Feel contempt for man and womanf
Oft, when viewing Fashions freaks,
Wrong in spirit and In letter,
Loud the soul within us speaks
"CommOn Sense should teach us better "
Hair strained up foot or more,
Dresses dragging far behind us;
On the street parlor floor,
Vanity and Fashion blind us.
All the good and true Of earth
Feel the weight of Follys fetter,
Even midst our joy and mirth
"Common Sense should teach US better !"
Daughters sit in lazy pride.
Though their mothers sink with toiling;
Zen the idea they deride,
For fear of their compilations spelling
Sons consent a fathers toll
Should make them to his bounty debtor,
When, though their white hands spoil.
"Common Sense should teach them better ~
Men and women fail to live
Half the life that God intended;
Fail to take and fail to give
Half their blessings, heaven descended
Lacking courage, strength and will
To be Circumstances abettor,
acommon mons Sense should teach them better r'
Men drink and smoke away their brain,
The master-work of the Creator,
And Sensuaty's foul train
Makes every good mans burden greater.
Life Is too short, to precious far,
It's glorious power thus to fetter,
Too fair the page for man to mar,
When "Common Sense should teach him better! !!
And cen some wel-meaning souls
Waste life in laborless repining,
While Time unnOted o'er them rolls,
And cuts them short In their designing
Life holds enough of pain and care
To satisfy the reriest frefter,
Then let us of this fault beware,
For Common Sense should teach us better ~
And all along the way we CO.
Our best perceptions upward reaching,
Would bid us to avoid the
That waits upon unheeded teaching.
The cares and joys that meet us here.
Our soaring pinions should not fetter,
But bear us onward to sphere
Where Coz, own Tru.h shall teach us better !!
