We have parted am lonely
since we breathed our last farewell,
And feel loved thee ouly
More than mortal tongue can tell
And thought when we were parted
That | could at length forget
ears have passed, and I, lone hearted,
Still am thinking of thee yet.
We have parted, dearest loved Que,
Yet feel that thou art mine;
since the hour when first met thee
have wOrsbipped nj thy shrine
And my thoughts are all about thee
In the silent hours of night;
Dearest loved Que, then come to me
When the morning bringsshe light.

THIRTEENTH DISTRICT.

The independents Of the 18Th blooming
tom congressional district of this state held
their convention ON the 18th inst, and on the
second ballot nominated A. +. Stevenson,
ESQ, of Bloomington, us their candidate for
congress. Every county in the district was
fully represented and the nomination meets
with cordial approval on all sides,
The convention did another very sensible
thing. In adopting the Springfield or Deca-
tur platform, it excepted the famous ,th reso-
luton, on the ground that itraeucly squinted
in favor of paper money initiation, and in lieu
of it adopted the following:
Rcsoiced That sc hold the national bank
ing system to be an oppressive, expensive and
corruptlng monopoly, and demand its abo!i-
ton.
That we are in favor of such an increase Of
the legal tender currency as will meet the de
mands of legitimate trade and maintain fair
values of trade.
That we favor Il return to specie payment
by such gradual processes as will least dis
turb the business interests Of the country.
Here is another proof of :hc necessity Of the
?Gth of August convention. The "opposi-
ton" can never be united on the Decatur
platform with the It'll resolution in it.

MASS CONVENTION.

We regard it as quite probable, from the
general Indifference that prevails in regard
to politics III this locality, that the County
Mass Convention called TO meet at the court
in Ottawa today will be but thinly attended
Nevertheless we are well persuaded that a
majority of the voters of this county cordially
endorse the object of that convention.
What is that object? 1t is simply to appoint
delegates to and thus express sympathy with
and endorsement Of the objects of the convcn
ton called by the Democratic State Commit
tee and others to meet at Springfield on
Wednesday of next week. That convention
became necessity on the failure OF the So
called farmers" or "Indcpendent' conven'
ton, which met IN June, 10 come up in It's
declarations to the demands of the time. 1t
was consplcuously at fault, and disappointed
a large number both of democrats and repub-
licans who desired then, and still desire, to
support its nominees, by ignoring two cardi-
nal political issues on which the opposition
to rcpublicanism is mainly based, to wit; n
SOuHu SpCIlt bbSIo NuI'chNl ~ 'lI'''N'N'N -
deprecated paper money; and personal
freedom, in opposition to paternalism, or
governmental interference with the private
conduct and affairs of individuals.
The movement Is not intended or under
stood to be in opposition, but supplemental
to, that of the Independents" The opposi.
ton to repubicanism, if they desire to tri-
umph must have complete platform. There
can be no omission of cardinal matters or
lodging Of grave issues, II the people are
for a vicious, inflated and deprecated cur
rency in opposition to n sound circulating me
dunn that is good the world over, they ought
to have an opportunity to say so squarcly by
their votes and fifth thought the people may
wish TO surrender their own personal liberty
as to what they will eat and drink, and look
to papa-govcrument TO prescribe for them
their daily bill of fare, let them have an OPP
portunity to vote sQuarely yes or no on that
question. These are issues the Independent
convention overlooked, ignored or lodged.
We desire, in setting the battle III array
against republicanism this full, that the
ground of contest shall be fully stated and
clearly understood. There can be no honest
contest if vital issues are ignored and VIC
tory is the same AS . defeat.

The Temperance Ledgue, the little crusader
monthly of this city, mistakes our meaning
or willingly misrepresents us. We certainly
did not mean, when we said we had no quar-
rel with the Lag'te, that we desired TO abe let
alone" The Leagve can pitch into us all it
likes, only we desire not to be misrepresent-
ed
So far as the league advocates total absti-
nence from all intoxicating drinks, it can en-
counter no opposition from US, nor is it like
ly, in this day to excite serious opposition
from any quarter Even saloon keepers are
ready to admit that if every body abstained
from strong drink, it would be good thing
But the issue we take with the Ledgue is, on
what it calls Legal suasion, or any other
suasion that can be applied to stop the liquor
traffic" In other words, our protest Is against
absolute prohibition" either by law, or mob
violence, or ANY other suasIonn that the
Leagues comprehensive language may in.
volve Because the principle is wrong. The
principle, as defined by the League, is, that
liquor selling should be prohibited because,
like murder, it Is directly injurious to the
rights of other people and impovishes the
state The principle involves too much. 1t
| is pricStly and puritanical. II assumes for
the state the right TO prescribe the conduct
and control the habits of the people. On
the same principle the estate" may prohibit
billiard and croquet playing, stop all festivi-
/ ties, and make it criminal To indulge IN ex
pensiyc diet and costly uress and equipage,
because a vast amount of bankruptcy, prostl-
tuition aud crime are undeniably traceable to
to these. All writers on political economy
in these days, are agreed that purely individ
ual acts and habits are outside of the sphere
of legislation. 1t is true that liquor selling
is trading, and therefore social act; but the
infringement prohlbi,ionists find il so i'm
possible TO enforce is not upon the liberty Of
the seller, whom few object to surroundings
with rigid and even oppressive regulations
but upon the liberty of the buyer, since The
state might just as well prohibit him from
drinking ale, beer, wine, tea, coffee or choco
late, as purposely to make il impossible fol

that day to this large rewards have been OF

Yet during that time three or four different
persons have confessed themselves the MUIR

halter in that way, is in the Bloomington
Jail, and calls himself Charles Levi, with an
alias or two. lie prctcnds to state quite cir

"NATIoNAL CONVENTION OF SPoRTsMEN."-
\ convention of this name has been called to
meet at Niagara Falls on the 9th OF Septcm-
Der, and all associations or individuals SYM
pathsing with its objects are invited to send
delegates or attend in person. The objects of
the convention are declared TO he, the organi-
cation of national association for the pro-
lection of the fish and game of the country.
The unrestricted slaughter hitherto Of fish
and game, il is asserted, threatens in Il few
years their total destruction. The beaver,
once SO freely found in Pennsylvania, no lon.
ger exists; deer are becoming rare; The but.
falo is rapidly disappearing and many birds,
animals and fish, once SO plenty, are rapidly
being cXtcrmnatcd. The object of the pro
posed national association will be To seek
such legislation from congress and the state
legislatures as will stop this indiscriminat,
slaughter.
