A Young man began visiting a

"Whatl do you work for liv-

"Certainly," replied the young

turned up ber pretty nose. FgrDg.
That was the last time the young

now wealthy man, and has one OF

Of mechanic is now the wife of q

about groe-shops, and the soft, ver-
dant and miserable girl is obliged tc
tske in washing in order to support
herself and children.
You dislike the name Of mechan.

well-dressed loafers.
We pity any girl who has so little
brains, who is so verdant, 50 soft, al

lfIt be true that "t,od ma 10 Che

encroochmcnts upon popular rights.
With surprising accord the great
cities Of the United States have Of
late united in the condemnation Of
political liadicalism. Thcexccptions
to the rule are few. New York and
Philadelphia, Charleston and New
Orleans, Milwaukee and Chicago, st..
Louis and Louisville, Brooklyn and
Baltimore, San Francisco and De
troit, staud side by side on every po-
litical issue Of the time. And even
the exceptions prove the rule, Bos-
ton is more conservative in proper

Republican county in Massachusetts,
and Pittsburg fails to condemn Rad
icalism only becau,e the rest of man
kind are taxed unfairly for the sup
port of Pittsburg.
The corresponding change in tho
rural districts goes on slowly, but il
will come. Republican farmers al
ready begin to suspect that the labor
of their single weekly newspaper, Il
convince them that all Democrats ar
rebels, and chat the country is still
voting about the war, are not alto

pect, also, that the Declaration Of In

right of self-government or counsel

they will know that the same polio,

THINKING OF HEAvEN.--A liv.
ing Divine says:
"When | WIS a boy, / thought ol
Heaven as a great, shining city, with
vast walls, and domes, and spires,
and with nobody in it except white,
tenuous angels, who were strangers
to me. By-and-by my little brother
died, and | thought of a great city,
with walls, and domes, and spires,
and a flock of cold unknown angels,
and one little fellow that / was ac-
quainted with. He was the only one
| knew at that time. Then another
brother died, and there were two that
| knew. Then my acquaintance
began to die, and the flock continu-
ally grew. But il was not till ! had
sent one Of my little children to bis
grand-parept God that ] began to
think ] had got little in myself.
A second went, a third went, fourth
went; and by that time | had 50
many acquaintance in Heaven that
| did not see any more walls and
domes, and spires. | began to think
of the residents Of the celestial city,
And now there have so many of my
acqqaintances gone there, il seems To
me that | know more in Heaven
than ! do on EARTH"

The following dispatch was sent to
Gov. Seymour BY President johnson
on the 23d:
see il announced in papers this
morning that you will entert the Pres
idential canvass in person. | trust
this may be so, as theprcsent position
of public affairs justifesand demands
it. II is hoped and believed by your
friends that all the enemies of con-
stitutional government, whether Sc
cret or avowed, will not be spared,
and that the arbitrary and unjust sus-
pensions, together with wasteful,
pronigate and corrupt uses Of the
public treasury will be signally ex-
posed and rebuked. The massof the
people should be aroused against the
encroachments of the despotic power
now ready to enter the'very gates Of
the citadel of Liberty. / trust you
may speak with an inspired tongue
and that your voice may penetrate
every patriotic heart throughout the
land. Let the living principles of a
violated Constitution be proclaimed
and restored, that peace, prosperity
and fraternal feeling may return to a
divided and oppressed nation"
