IHE DIFFERENcE.-A correspondent writing
to the Washington Chronicle from New York at
the time the Democratic Convention was in ses-
sion, says :-"I have been struck, in looking
over the long list of rebel generals, colonels, ma
Jors, captains and politicians in this convention
at the difference between their reception and the
reception of the Northern men who have gone
South to find homes under the protection of the
Government. The rebels are received as if they
had won immortal honors on glorious ields-as
if they bad fought and won great victories for
mankind They are surrounded by crowds of
admlring sympathizers, cheered in public and
feasted in privated by the Democracy. On the
other hand our Union friends in the South are
hated and treated like so many beasts of prey
insulted in public and prosecuted in private
and all who harbor or vote with them must share
their odum and their Suferings. General Meade
is assailed as tyrant and popnjay in the
South, and General Forrest is upheld as gen.
tleman and patriot in the North while Gov
ernor Brownlow is denounced in Tennessee as a
ruffian and iend, Barnwell Rhett is embraced
in New York as another Benjamin Franklin,
come to bless aud save mankind by his philos-
ophy."

ADDRESS TO THE PEOPLE BY Ex-GovERNoR Orr.
Ex-Governor Orr of South Carolina has pub
lished an address to the people of the State, re-
viewing his administration and presenting the
reasons which influenced his public conduct,
and advising future policy. He says that it
would have been wise for the white people to
accept the reconstruction acts, and that if nom
constitution is obnoxious, it is the fault of the
intelligent white men who took part in the
convention elections. He again avows himself
in favor of qualified colored suffrage. He says
it is idle to expect any relief from universal
suffrage, from the Democratic party. If the
Southern governments, in 1871, are declared
void, the States will be left in condition of an
archy. If the Supreme Court declares them
unconstitutional he asks what constitutions
will be in force, and what officers renstated
He says "we should depend on ourselves only"
and speaks of the harmony that existed between
himself and the district commanders. In con-
cluson he says that the principles and purposes
avowed by his successor, Governor Scott, with
reference to the interests of the State, are wise
and patriotic, and he invites the people to give
his administration full and fair trial before
its condemnation.

The Head and the Heart.

On the head and the heart jewels that fling
Their uster alike round the peasant and king:
The head the most brilliant the heart the most rare
AND earth has no gem that with them compare;
The head, though it dazzles. tits worldly display;
The heart sheds balm meath the light of its ray;
In the deep mines Of feeling they both take part
we've cneer Tor the head, and tear for the heart!
Oh the head and the heart though they entwine
As the ivy the oak, or the tendrils the vine,
The head. like the oak, would in Winter seem bare
II the heart did not twine like the fond ivy there
For the head. ever reckless the heart never heeds
Till the rough storms of life all its progress impedes
And when from its bopghs they stripped every part
The head saeks for refuge, end Aies totte heart.
Yes the head the man. with his thoughts like the wind
And the heart Is like woman, still tender and kind;
But the head with his boasting would ptful be,
Unless with the heart he contrved to agree;
The head. oft in error will blame and abuse,
The heart bids all to forgive and excuse
No without woman in life could take part
Then worlds brightest gems the head and the heart
