Attic qStatetC CohSehtioD Bsld ii
Delaware to select delegates fostle
Democratic National Conyent t;onI q
series of ably y-Sirawu, Resolutions was
adopted, OF which the following is
the most Significant: 6 2 3 q {.
& y. Resolced, That We: regard negro
rule In this country under its. names
OF impartial" or universal suffrage. .,
as the vital issue against which. az
the champions OF a sconstitntional
government founded on the consent
OF free achite men, we are ever
arrayed--and that our delegates ito
the National Convention, to be held
&C New York, while left TO their own
sound discretion in selecting worthy
candidates for the, Presidency and
V1ce-Presidency, are hereby instruct
ed to vote for no candidate who is
not clearly and distinctly in favor of
running this country by the virtue
and Intelligence of white men onlv.
we have reason to believe that this
resolution faithfully reflects the SEN
tlments of the people of Delaware
and OF the Democrats of the entire
South. This intense and unyieldine
hostility to negro suffrage is as much
n fact as it is fact that the Republi-
can party will control the Federal
Senate for the next four years. For
aught we can see, it is just rs impos-
slble to shake the one fact as the
other. And surely the Northern
States have no right to complain of
the South for the uncomfortable
pertinacity with which it holds this
view, considering that ali the North
ern States which have voted on the
subject since the war, reject and
scorn negro suffrage. The incon-
sistency and tyranny of forcing upon
the South what we refuse to tolerate
ut home is monstrous, and we cannot
wonder that the South regards it as
abominable. Such being the feeling
on this subject in all parts of the
country, nothing could we'll seem
more wild and Quixotic than any
further efforts to nominate Chief
Justice Chase. The Delaware reso-
luton which we have copied, while
liberal and tolerant toward all other
candidates, emphatically excludes
him and oil who think with him on the
question of negro suffrage; and that
resolution expresses the sentiments
OF too large n portion of the Demo
cratic party to permit the nomina-
tion of the foremost advocate OF
negro suffrage in the whole country.
But while it is fact that this intense
repugnance to negro suffrage exists in
the Democratic party, it is equally n
fact. that negro suffrage cannot be
uprooted in the Africanized States
within the next four years, by any
thing which the Democratic party
can do.-Nep York World

lMM1GRATIoN.--What the South
greatly.needs at the present time, is
capital and white labor. She wants
Northern men. and European men,
with capital, to come into her bor-
ders and develop the unbounded re-
sources of her soil and climate; she
wants Northern men and European
men, with their families, to come
into her borders, and make practical
applications of the resources thus
developed. She wants farmers, me.
chanlcs, house servants; and she
wants these to be conservative peo-
ple-people who will have the inter
ests of the South at heart, and devote
themselves to her welfare and pros
perity; she wants them to be intelli-
gent people, who will be able to
Judge for themselves in regard to our
political affairs, and not be misled by
the wicked and designing politicians
who are seeking their own fortunes
at the expense of Southern honor
and prosperity. In q few words, she
wants liberal, enterprising. sagacious
capitalists, honest, Intelligent, hard
working laborers. To these she has
q heartfelt welcome to give, and all
the encouragement that lies within
her power. She does not ask them
to believe with her that the "Lost
Cause was righteous and a glorious
cause; but she asks them to be true
ito her present cause and to her future
cause-true to the principles of con-
stitutional liberty-true to the honor,
the dignity, and prosperity of the
South. Give her these, and she will
give you, in return, welcome, n
home, and share in her future
prosperity and glory.

a CONJUG1L DISPUTE.

a CONJUG1L DISPUTE.
All at the mid of the night there arose
a quarrel 'twixt husband and wife;
For the young Omer Bey and his spouse,
Falling into discussion and strife,
Wild words to each other they said,
Side by side at the dead
OF the night, on their marriage bed.
Had it been about anything less
The quarrel might have passed by;
But it was not trife, you guess,
That set words running SO high.
Yet the cause in dispute Ito be brie0
Was only white handkerchief,
Broidered all over with gold,
And scented with rose and with amber
So;sweet, the whole house could not hold
That scent from the nuptial chamber.
For (the whole truth herewith to disclose)
This handkerchief broidered with gold,
And scented with amber and rose,
Had been given to the Boy Ito enfold
Her letters which lay on his breast)
BY the mistress that he loved best.
But his wife had sensitive nose
For the scent of amber and rose;
Aud the fiend himself only knows
But, for lie, ere the close
OF the quarrel there had not been blows.
"You know I've sister, my treasure,
The wife of our friend, Zekir Bey;
loye her, you know, beyond measure;
Md she, dear, on her bridal day,
To me gave this white handkerchief,
Broidered all over with gold,
And scented with amber and rose;
Which precious, for her sake, hold,
Though the scent of it, much to my grief,
Has troubled our nuptial repose."
Smiling, her husband she heard,
Feeling no faith in his word,
For troubled his face was. she saw.
Up she lcapt by the light of the taper,
BarefooHd, and seized ink and paper,
And wrote to her sister-in-law;
"Wife of our friend, zekir Bey,
Long live thy husband, naught all him,
May'st thou never have cause to bewail
him!
Speak truth and fear nothing. But say
{F'or truly the truth must be told,)
To thy brother, on thy bridal day,
Didst thou give white handkerchief
brightly
Embroidered all over with gold,
And scented with rose and with amber,
So sweet that the scent of it nightly
May be smelt in the Bey's bridal chamber9"
When this came to the wife of the Bey,
She burst into tears, as she read;
And, "Pity upon me-" she said,
For know not, alas what to say.
If speak truth, put strife
'Twixt the brother love and his wife;
If speak false, much dread,
Lest my husband die for it," she said.
Then tire letter she laid in her breast;
And she pondered with many sigh:
81 chose of two evils the least,
Ifmy husband must die, let him die.
Since the choice lies 'twiXt one or the other;
Any husband a woman may spare;
But the sister that Injuries brother,
Does that which she cannot repair"
Thus shrewdly the matter she saw;
And she wrote to her sister-in-law:
wife of my brother. the Bey
My husband is well. HAY naught all him
And trust shall never bewail him!
To my brother, on your marriage day
And truly the truth shall be told,
gave white handkerchief, brightly
Embroidered all over with gold,
And scented with rose and with amber,
So sweet that the scent Gas you say,
And as cannot doubt of it) nightly
May be smelt in the Bey's bridal chamber"

Her glory robe of flowers
The sea its gems-the grand old woods
Their songs and greeting showers
The birds have homes, where leaves and

In beauty wreathe above;
High yearning hearts theirrainbow-dream

For all their world of gold!

Do we not live and love?

On misery's bosom hurst;

For branded brows, Cain curst!
But Cherubim, with clasping wings,

And, happiest of Gods happy things!

Thy lips, that kiss till death, have turned
Life's water into wine:
The sweet life melting thro' thy looks, r
Hath made my life divine.
All loves dear promise hath been kept,
Since thou to me vert given;
A ladder for my soul to climb,
And summer up in Heaven.
I know, dear heart, that in our lot
May mingle tears and sorrow;
But Loves rich rainbows bull from tears
To-day, with smiles tomorrow.
The sunshine from our sky may die,
The greenness from life's tree,
But over, mid the warning storm,
Thy nest shall SHELTERED be.
