Senator Ferry and Political Disa-
bilities.


The following is an extract from a
recent speech delivered by Mr.. Ferry
"a United States Senator from Con-
necticut-in reply TO the proscriptive
policy urged by the yindiclive Nor
ton from Indiana:
But, says the senatorfrom Indiana,
history is against the Senator from
Connecticut; history shows that you
can do dothing by conciiating van

little know Of statesmanship have

Clomency. What does history teach
us Of the effect of disabilities and test.
acts in other countries with whose
story we are familiar? Why, sir, We
ought all to be familiar with that old
English story. 1t has come down to
us from the looks of our boyhood -
What has England gained by five
hundred years Of disabilities and test

out the land. might 80 on, sir, but
such monstrous porversion of histo
ry as the argument of the Senator
from Indiana seems TO me to need no
further refutation.
On account of these historical cila.
tions, and the advocacy of more pa.
cifc policy than that adopted 10y the
proscriptionists, Senator Ferry has
been denounced in unmoasurod terms
By number Of the leading Radical
papers.
1t is a fact worthy Of remembrance,
that a member OF the opposition par
/ ty cannot utter sentiment in favor
Of the abolition of obnoxious dlsabili
ties--in favor Of any measure calcula
ted to restore friendly relations be
tween the two sections OF the country
without being pounced upon by Tray
Blache and Sweetheart, and worried
by all the dogs from the Radical ken

Mr. Ferry, and all who think witt
him, should take courage from the re
loction, that by incuuing the pres
ont displeasure Of unrclenting bigots
they will secure the lasting respect
and gratitude Of the just.

THE FOOTSTEPS or DECAY.
Oh! let the soul lis slumbers break
Arouse lis senses, and awake
To sec how soon
Life, in lis glorics glides away.
And the stern footsteps Of decay
Comes stealing on.
And while we view the rolling tide,
Down which our flowing minutes glide
Away so fast,
Lot as the present hour employ,
And deem each future dream Joy
Already past.
Let no vain hope deceive the mind,
No happier lot us hope to lnd
Tomorrow than to-day;
Our golden dreams Of yore were bright,
Like them the present shall delight
Like them decay.
Our lives like Fastening streams must be

Arc doomed to fall

And swallows all.

And rich aud poor sleep side by side

Our birth is but a starting place;
Life Is the running of the race
And death the goal
There al our glttering toys are brought
That path alone, Of all unsought
l. found Of al.
See, then how poor and little worth
Are all those glittering toys Of earth
That lure "a here;
Dreams Of a sleep that death mus; break
Alas before Il bids us wake,
We disappear.
Long ere the damp Of earth can blight,
The cheeks pure glow Of red and white
Has passed away;
