Daniel Webster in boyhood gave
no promise of the extraordinary
powers of his manhood, and espe-
cially of his fitness for public life
and speaking,
His growthwas slow but solid,
not rapid or brilliant. The follow
ing record of his early years may
encourage some of our readers:
"When about seven years of age
his father kept a Yankee Tavern, y
and young Daniel used to entertain
the guests by reading to them some
of the psalms of David. Even the
rough teamsters, when they pulled
up their horses, would say, Come,
let's go and hear a psalm from Dan
Webstern His voice at that time
was deep, rich and musical. But as
school boy he was no elocutionist,
or rather his sensitiveness was such
that he could not practice. His first
effort at fourteen was a failure, for
the moment he began he was en-
barrassed and burst into tears. He
tried many times preparing himself
carefully, but when his name was
called, and he saw all eyes turned
upon him, he could not rise. SO
much for this great orator. Let no
timid boy be discouraged.

Light shining Through.

40, mamma" said my little girl
of three summers, as we sat one
lovely night in the bright starlight;
ooh, mamma, how bright and beau
tiful it is in heaven!" ssWhy do YOU
think so, my darling" / asked. ''Be-
cause" pointing her little finger at
the heavens, "don't you see the
holes in the sky, and the light shin
ing through? The angels punched
them, that we might see the light in
heaven"
This, have thought, was a beau
tiful, heaven born thought in my
sweet child. A Christian should
look by faith beyond the clouds of
dark despOndenoy, and see the light,
glorious and bright, of Gods love
shining and illuminating their
paths. We should look up as the
child TO the life giving, ever blessed
righteousness OF a Saviour's love,
instead of into our own lives to
find encouragement and light, more
glorious than the MONDAY sur.
which sheds over the heart the peace
that passeth understanding. Be-
yond the cloud we should seek the
silver lining.

Northern pemecraey.


The Appeal is willing to unite
with patriots of all parties, the up
right and rejecting men of all sec
tions, to defeat corruption and des-
potism. We counsel foTbearance, to-
lerance of opinion, and charity a.
moBg all who honestly labor for the
overthrow of Radicalism aud its in
famous frauds and cOFruptions.-
Though we Of the South may not
approve of all the means by which
the end is to be accomplished, We
VIII thank God when the news is
preclAltned that constitutiOnalg gov
ernment Is again restored in the
South and North. In the approach
ing campaign the South should let
the Northern Democrats who have
been our friends determine the can
vass. We can only hope for redemp-
tion through them, and into their
hands the planning of the campaign
lor the defe2t of Radicalism must be
committed. Should the Pendletons,
SeymouFs, Blairs, Brookses, Voor-
hees, Hendricks, Hoffmans, Thur
mans, Casserlies, Blacks, and thou
sands Of ether good men and true at
the North, who are in favor of free
government and constitutional lib
erty deem it expedient to strike
hands with the Labor Reformers and
Liberal Republicans, we shall follow
their lead, feeling assured that they
would not commit the Southern
people 70 any policy or principles
hostile 10 their interest or self-res-
pect. Some of the most unfinching
and faithful men ever in the Demo-
cratic party have fallen battling for
the right of the Southern people
Their deYotion.to the principles of
the constitution, and the right re-
cognized and guaranteed by it, was
the sole cause OF their defeat. When
we consider these things we cannot
but admire the devotion of the
Northern Democracy in their self
at home to preserve and
uphold the principles of the cOnsti-
tuition throughout the Union.-Ap-

weather wisdom.

A rainbow in the morning gives
the shepherd warning. That Is, if
the wind be easferly; because IL
shows that the rain cloud is ap-
preaching the observer.
A rainbow at night is the shep-
herds delight. This is also a good
as il shows that the rain clouds arc
passing away.
Evening red, and next morning
gray, are certain signs OF a beauti-
ful day.
When the glow worm lights her
lamp the air is always damp.
If the cock goes Growing TO bed
he certainly rises with watery
head.
When you see a gossamer hyiRg
be sure the air is drying.
When black snails cross your
path, black clouds much moisture
hath.
When the peacock loudly bawls,
soon we win have both rain and
squalls.
When ducks are driving through
the barn that night the weather
takes a turn.
If the moon shines like a silver
shield be not afraid to reap your
fields.
But If she rises halOed round, soon
we'll tread on delnged ground.
When rocks are sporting In the
air, it shows that windy storms are
near.
Ifat sun rising or setting, the
clouds are lurid red color extend
ing nearly TO the zenith, it's a sure
sign Of squalls and a gale Of wind.

Help one Another.

This little sentence should be
written on every yheart-stamped on
every memory. 1t should be the
golden rule practiced, not only in
every household, but all through
the world. BY helping one another
we not only remove thorns from the
pathway, and anxiety from the
mind, but we feel a sense of pleas
ure in our hearts, knowing we are
doing a duty to a fellow-creature.
A helping hand or an encourag-
ing word is no loss TO US, yet IL is
benefit to others. Who has not felt
the power of little sentencel Who
has not needed the encouragement
and aid of a kind friend? How
soothing, when perplexed with
some task that is both mysterious
and burdensome, to feel a gentle
hand on TIE shoulder, and to hear
kind voice whispering: ''Do not
feel discouraged, / see your troubles,
let me help you" What strength
is inspired, hope created, what
sweet gratitude is felt, and the great
difficulty dissolves as dew beneath
the sunshine. Yes, let us help one
another, by endeaVoring TO strength
en- and encourage the weak, and
lifting the burden of care from the
weary and oppressed, that life may
glide smoothly on, and the fount Of
bitterness yield sweet waters; and
He whose willing hand is ever ready
to aid us will reward our humble
endeavors, and every good deed
will be as ''bread upon the waters,
TO return after many days" IL not
to us, at least to those we love.
Whig and tribune. [volume] (Jackson, Tenn.) 1870-1877, 1872-04-13

bride, perhaps the inscription of the
ring recurred to his mind; for,
bending his head quite close to the
ear of Charlotte, he whispered,
Now empress of the hearts, and
perhaps some day empress of the
realm"
At this moment the procession
reached the main entrance of the
Winter Palace, where Alexanner L.,
the Emperor, surrounded by q bril-
liant suit of generals and eourtiers,
ne to meet his beautiful sister-in-
law and conduct her into the sump-
.tuous drawing rooms of the magni-
ticent palace of the Gar. Who
would have credited il that eight
years afterward the brilliant young
Emperor would have breathed his
last, and that Nicholas and Char
lOtte would succeed him on the
throne of Russia? Verify, the in
scription upon the Grand Dukes
engagement ring had proved pro-
Dhetic.

Going Up ana Coming Down.

This is a simple song, 'tis true,
And songs like these are never nice;
And yet wen try and scatter through
pinch or two OF good advice.
Then listen Pompous friend. and learn
Never 10 boast OF much renOwn;
For Fortunes wheel is on the turn,
And some 90 up and some come down.
We know a vast amount OF stocks
A vast amount OF pride insuros;
But Fate has picked so many locks,
We wouldn't like 70 warrant your.
Remember then, and never spurn
The one whose hand is hard and brown;
For he is likely TO 20 up,
And you are likely 70 come down.
Another thing you viii agree,
(The truth may be as well confessed6
The @eodfish aristocracy,'
Is but scaly thing at best.
And though the fishes large and strong
May seek The little ones TO drown,
Yet fishes all, both great and small,
Are going up and coming down.
Our lives are tull Of chance and change,
And chance You know is never sure
And 'tweTe a doctrine new and strange,
That places high are most secure.
And though the fickle god may smile,
And wicld the sceptre and the crown,
IT'S only for a little while
Then b goes up and A comes down.
The world tor you and me, my friend,
Hath something more than pounds and
pence
Then let me humbly recommend
A little use OF common sense
Thus lay all pride Of place aside,
And have a care ON whom you frown;
For fear you'll see him going up
When you arc only coming down.

Lies Brightest Hour.

Not lsng since Imet a gentleman
who is assessed for more than mill
ion. Silver was in his hair, care up
on his brow, and he stopped beneath
his burden of wealth. We were
speaking of that period of life when
we had realized the most perfect en-
Jeyment, or, rather, when we had
found the happiness nearest to be
unallOyed. HI'll tell you,'' said the
millionaire, "When was the hap

Stand up erect! Theu hast the form

As much part OF the great plan
That with creations dawn began,

Nayi nurse not such belief.

What were the worlds proud scorn TO

A feather which thou mishtest east
Aside, as idly as the blast
The light leaf from the tree.
No; uncurbsd passions, low desires,
Absence Of noble selfrespeet,
Death, in the breasts consuming fires,
To that high nature which aspires
Forever, ill thus checked.
These are thine enemies-thine worst;
They chain thee to thy lowly lot
Thy labor and thy life accurs'd.

And longer suffer not.

MUTAL FoRBEARANCE. - The
house will be kept in turmoil where
there Is no tolerance Of each others
error, lenity shown to failings, no
meek submission TO injuries, no soft
answers TO turn away wrath. If
you lay a single stick of wood on
the andirons and apply fire to it, il
will go out, put on another stick,
and they burn; add half a dozen,
and you will have a grand conhagra-
ton. There are other fires subject
to the same condition. If one mem
ber of family gets into passion,
and is let alone he viii cool down,
and possibly get ashamed and repent.
But oppose temper to temper, pile
on the fuel; draw others into the
scrape, and let one harsh word be
followed by another, and there will
soon be 3 blaze which will enwrAp
them all in its lurid splendors.

COnVentiOn-StaLe COnYen
tiOn Called TO Meet
in May Next.

Special to the Appeall
Nashville, March 2S.-At meet
ing Of the State Executive Commit
tee Of the Democratic party to-day
the following was adopted:
Believing that the time has come
when the welfare not only of our
STATE but of the nation, demands
that the Democracy should take
counsel together and prepare for
harmonious action, and in the intel
igeAt and patriotic discharge of
their duty in the approaching con-
test, both State and national, the
Democratic Executive Committee
for the State of Tennessee do, there
fore,
ResoIve, That a democratic
State Convention is hereby called to
assemble at the capitol in Nashville,
on Thursday the ninth day Of May
next, to nominate a candidate for
Governor, and to take such other
steps N view OF the altproac hing
contest, both Stzte and National
elections, and as the condition of
the country and circumstances then
existing, may suggest, and to this
end we urge upon the people in diff
ferent counties, to assemble at as
early a time as practicable in prima-
ry meetings and select suitable dele
gates to represent them in said
convention; That, recognizing the
fact that the people of Tennessee
have a common interest in resisting
the encroaehments Of Capitalization
and preserving republican govern
ment, as well as correcting corrup-
tions and abuses, which have become
so wide spread and alarming, and
believing that upon these great
questions, there is little or no ma
terial diversity of opinion among
them, we invite the cooperation of
all conservative patriots, by what
ever party name they may have
heretofore been called. In aecor-
dance with the foregoing resolution,
A convention of the Democratic
party of Tennessee is called to meet
at the capitol on the 9Th of May.

A pretty good story is told at the
expense of a well known doctor in a
certain village of New Hampshire.
1t seems that a few days before the
recent election in that State, the
doctor sent q letter inclosing money
to a shoemaker in Lynn, a voter in
Lake Village, requesting him to
come home and vote. The poor
fellow instead of purchasing a rail-
way ticket, got intoxicated with the
doctors money, and wandering off
rot frozen to death. The coroner,
in his examination of the body,
found the letter and sent the BODY
TO the doctors address with the re-
mark. Here's your voter"
