UNION PLATFORM.
l. ResolUed That it is the highest duty of ev,
cry American citizen to maintain against all their
enemies the integrity of the Union ard the para,
mount authority of the Constitution and Laws oi
the United States, and to preserve at the ballot>
box the fruits of the late war.
2. ResolUed, That the work of reconstruction
of the Southern States belongs to the legislative
department of the government and that we en-.
dorse the thirteenth and fourteenth amendments
to the Constitution and the acts of Congress:
commonly called the reconstruction acts as the
best plan yet proposed for the restoration of the
States lately in rebellion, to their former rela.
tions to the Federal Government.
3. ReSoiUed, That we are in favor of admitting
the rebel States to representation in Congress at
the earliest practicable moment which the pubs
lie safety will permit.
4. ResoLVed, That the national debt was neces-
sarily contracted to save the national life and
ought to be honestly paid, and we condemn ev-
cry scheme devised for the reputation of the
whole or any part of the debt as disgraceful to
the republic and unjust to its citizens, and that
the proposition to pay in legal tender notes those
debts contracted to be paid in specie, is only a
milder term for reputation.
5. Resolved, That under the Constitution, the
Federal Government has righ: to interfere
with the elective franchise in any State having
representation in Congress aud where civil gov
ernment is not overtnrown by rebellion.
6. ResoiUed, That the right of expatriation is
the natural and inherent right of all people and
indispensable to the enjoyment of the rights of
life liberty and the pursuit of happiness that
while the citizen owes allegiance to the Govern
ment, the Government owes protection to the
citizen, and that it is the duty of the Govern
ment of the United States to protect all its citi-
zens, native born aud naturalized, in the full en-
joyment of their rights as citizens of the United
States, wherever aud under whatever color or
pretence those rights may be invaded.
T. Resolved, That the foreign immigration,
which in the past has added so much to the
wealth, development of resources, and increase
of power of this nation, the ASYLUM of the op-
pressed of all nations, should be fostered and en-
couraged by liberal and just policy; and that
we sympathize with all people everywhere who
are struggling for civil and religious liberty.
8. ResoLUsd, That the thanks of the American
people are due to the soldiers and sailors of the
army and navy who have perilled their lives IN
defense of their country a1d in vindication of the
honor of its flag that the natioD owes to them
some permanent recognition of their patriotism
and their valor and ample and permanent pro-
vision for those of their survivors who have re-
ceiyed disabling and honorable wounds in the
service of their country and that the memories
of those who have fallen in its defense shall be
held in grateful and everlasting remembrance.
| 9. RESOLVED, That we are in favor of liberal
appropriations of land and money, by the Gov.
ernment, to aid in the construction Of railroads.

GREATNEss.-There is no greatness that
is impervious, aud no character that has not
its blemish. Peter and Paul fell TO up
braiding, and Paul and Barnabas parted with
not the most heavenly dispositions 1t seldom
happens bnt the weakest find some sort of
comfort in the folies of or the faults of the
wsest, and readily become their imitators.
Philip, Of Macedon, was stoop shouldered.
The followers the Court SOON were attacked
with a like in6rmity. Lord Byron drank
gin and wrote Don Juan. There has been
host who drank the gin but none to write
Don Juan. DR.. johnson wrote the Rambler
in a style full of rolling and well balanced
periods. For the next half century all writers
were JohnSonian. Queen Elizabeth put a
patch on her face to cover a pimple, Soon
every lady of the Court had her cheeks
dotted with court plaster. Sir VIM. John
son wore a red coat. Red jacket, the savage,
put on the same. 1t were to be wished that
the contagion of virtue was as great as the
coutaminatons of vice, but the world is so
constituted that sin in state makes sots in
the multitude; and the infrmities of excel.
lence makes fools of fattererS, while virtue
is thing of such exalted merit and superior
qualifications, that, lik. the sun, though it
shines on all, yet it shines from itself, and
notfrom borrowed efulgence.

DEATH.-We have never read anything
more beautiful than the following from the
pen of George D. Prentice:
"There is but breath of air and a beat
of the heart betwixt this world and the next.
And in the brief interval of painful aud
awful suspense, while we feel that death is
present with us, that we are powerless, and
the all powerful, and the faint pulsAtion here
is but the prelude Of endless life hereafter,
we feel in the midst of the stunning calamity
about 10 befall us, that the earth has no COM
pensating good to mitigate tho severity of
our loss. But there is no grief without
some bene6cient provision to soften its in
tenseness. When the good and lovely die, the
memory of their good deeds, like the moon
beams on the stormy sea, light up our dark.
ened hearts and lends to the surrounding
gloom a beauty SO sad, SO sweet, that We
would not if we could, dispel the darkness
that environs it.

the chimney CORNER.

The old chimney corner, Ii Is en-
deared to the heart from the earliest
rec0llections. What dreams have been
dreamed there What stories told.
What bright hours passed. 1t was a
place TO think in, a place 10 weep in, a
place 20 laugh in, and mnch the co-iest
place i'm the house TO rest in. 1t was
there where dear old grandmamma
used To sit at her knitting, warming her
poor old rheumatic back against the
warm wall: where grandpa used TO fail
asleep over his newspaper; where mann
ma used To place her spinning wheel;
and papa used to sit there. too, and read
i'm tile great arm chair.
Ii was there where you used to read
fairy tales in your childhood, folded all
80 snug, and warm, and cOSey. in its
great warm lap, while the wind of a
winters night was Whistling without.
Your favorite plum cake was never so
sweet as when eaten there, and the sto-
ries Won read by the sitting-ro0m fire
side were never half so fascinating as
those read in the chimney corner
Ifyou were sad, you went there to
cry. If you We're merry you with your
brothers and sister, nestled there to have
a right merry time. Even puss and the

Look back to the old house, where
every room, every nook is So full of
pleasant recollectiOns-the family sit
ting room, where so many happy meet
ings your own chamber, with its little
window. where the sun came peeping
in al morn; mothers room, still sacred
with her presence. But after all, the
brightest memories cluster about that
chimney corner.
You long to be folded i'm its faithful
old bosom again, as yon were in child
hood. and have good cry over those
past happy times.
It is desolatc now The bright faces
that clustered there Of yore viii never
come back again Black and dingy are
the loved walls, and the smoke from
the kitchen fire never makes them
warm any more. But still memory sits
up some of The hottest and most beauti-
ful statues Of her carving in the old
chimney corner.

something Mysterious.

Heretofore, in the commercial history
OF this country the products of the farm
have been among the first of the goods
and wares in market TO depreciate in
price on the approach of hard times.
Whenever business has slackened, city
and village people have found the cost of
living greatly if not prOpOrtiOnally re-
duced. But this year, while factories
and shops are cutting down pay or time,
OF discharging their employees entirely;
while clothing, house rent, and some
other items of expense are offered at
materially reduced rates, flour and meat,
corn and vegetables, butter and eggs re-
main firm at war prices. To families de-
pendent on employment that has been
partially or wholly cut of, or on salaries
that have been reduced, and are likely
20 be entirely suspended this unusual
state Of things is not only mysterious,
hut il is uncomfortable alarming. In
cities and villages il is about as common
a topic Of conversation, a. the weather.
We hear il discussed in the streets in
the streets, IN the cars az the market, at
the eating-hOuses,- in fact wherever
consumers meet and converse.
Very many ascribe it to the "specula-
tOrsn and "middle men, " but few seem
TO regard this az entirely satisfactory, as
it is well known that spectators and
middle me have operated in other times
as well a. i'm these latter days After
fun discussion, and after carefully weigh-
ing all familiar disturbing causes, the
conclusion often reached is, that there is
something mysterious i'm the present
state OF the produce market.
To our own mind there Is nothing
mysterious in this anomalous state Of
things, though we admit there is good
reason for the alarm that exists. Pro
duce is high andis likely foreman high,
simply because the consumers are many
and the producers are few. Cause il
inevitable working out its effect The
demand exceeds the supply. There are
more mouths open for " steak. thick and
rare, than there are hands feeding the
stalled OK; more eggs taken from the
basket than are put in,-and people
wonder that beef Is scarce and that the
basket is empty.
Business like the ocean has its ebb
and flow. For years past the cities and
villages have waXed and the country
has waned. Young men and young
women have left the rural districts for
the commercial centres in sufficient
numbers to afford TO our mind, perfect
~ satisfactory explanation Of whatever
may appear strange in the present con-
ditiOn of business affairs
If this view of the subject is correct.
we need not extend our remarks 10y an
attempt to point out the lesson it affords
TO both producer and consumer.-N. T.

New WAY TO COLLECT OLD DEBTS
A Troy lime dealer had upon his books
an old debt of $50 against a mason, who
had been unfortunate in his business.
The debtor and creditor met few nights
since in the presence of quite crowd,
and soon engaged in an argument as TO
the relative merits of various masons in
the city. Lime dealer said to the nason
debtor: Pm not much of "A workman

said the other, and the money was put
up by both parties.
"Now said the man of lime, I'm bet
YOU $40 to 10 win the bet. Done, said
the mason, and the $50 were placed i'm
the hands of the stakeholder, with the
agreement that the parties were TO meet
next day and decide the bet by running
a cornice upon certain buildings that
were named. Meantime, however, the
creditor visited the Justices court, pro
