the power and the right to make at
any time, would, as have before sta
ted, give the South eight more Sena-
tors, forty in all, and only make it nee
essary to obtain the vote of one Demo-
cratic State in the North to secure alb
solute control of the Senate. No OBJ
noxiOus law could be repealed without
the consent of the Senate. No law
could be passed without its concur
renee. 1t would be in position to
dictate both as to legislation and ap
pointments. No new state could be ad
mitted, no treaty made, no postmaster
or revenue officer appointed without its
permission. The negro might be re-
enslaved by the States and there would
be no remedy save in revolution a sys
tom of peonags might be established
worse than slavery, under which the
freedmen would be guarded by shot
guns while they worked and hunted
by bloodhounds when they ran away,
and the North, unless absolutely solid,
would be utterly pOwerless to protest.
With the Senate in possession of the
South, what can the North dOf The
President may he a Republican, the
House may have a twe-thirds Republi
can majority, the popular vote may be
overwhelmingly Republican, but there
stands the Southern Senate to dictate
to all, to revise every law, to bargain
about every appointment, to pass upon
every appropriation, to demand what
it wants for the South and obtain it or
Obstruct all legislation.
This, fellow citizens, is the lost cause
revived it is better to the South than
the lost cause could have been, because
it affords greater advantages. 1t COM
preheA.ls al that that did, and reaches
far beyond it puts the purse of the
North within easy reach of the iudOlent
and impoverished South it indemnities
the South for the past, and gives it So
curity for the future; it places the
South in position to say to US, "Yield
to our demands or rebel; take this or
nothing; submit to our direction, or
the machinery of the government will
stop; you have much to lose by war !;
we have little; break the peace if you
dare" This would he the end of free
government on this continent.
Stimulated by the hope of grasping
this prize and achieving the great vic
tory over the North, the Confederate
army is marching to the polls in solid
column, followed by every man who
lost cotton bale, by every master who
lost slave, by every planter who lost
a mule, by every gambler, pimp and
thief who prides himself on being bet
ter than negro; by every ruffian
whose business it was SO make mer-
chandise of men; by every brutal
overseer who cut and slashed the la
boring poor; by every canting hypO-
crite who taught that slavery was sane
toned by God by every cOwardly as
sassin who raised his murderous hand
to strike down free speech by every
sneaking scoundrei who has cheated
the popular will by tissue ballots.

Will any one explain to me why the
French are so cruel to horses As Il rule
they are anything but cruel to animals
in general. During all the years that L
have lived in Paris, have never seen
a Frencbman strike or kick dog, or
set dog on a cat, or incite two dogs to
fight, or in fact perform any of those
petty deeds of cruelty that are so COM
mon in other countries. AS a race, the
French are extremely fond of pet ami
mails, and their dogs are fOndled and
cared for till they become wonderfully
sociable. And yet the way Partisan
cabmen and carriers are suffered to treat
their poor patient horses is beyond
measure trying to the nerves of any
one who has a spark of humanity in his
nature. Usually cabman will lash
his horse from the time he starts,
whether by the course or by the hour,
till he is discharged If the lash prove
Intellectual, he will often reverse his
whip aud pound the poor bony, half
starved animal with the hande.-[ Lucy

The Voice in the Twilight.

was sitting alone towards the twilight,
With spirit troubled and vexed,
With thoughts that were morbid and gloomy
And faith that was sadly perplexed
Some hOmely work was doing
For the child of my love and care,
Some stitches half wearily setting
In the endless need of repair.
But my thoughts were about the building"
The work some day to be tried
And that only the gold and the silver,
And the precious stones, should abide.
And remembering my own poor efforts,
The wretched work 1 had done,
And, even when trying most truly,
The meagre success had won.

This useless fruit of the talents
One day to be returned.
"AndI have so lOnged to serve Him,
And sometimes knos0 have tried;
But I'm sure when he sees sasch building;
He will never let it abide"
Just then as turned the garment
4hat no reht snouiu oe leIt Dehihu,
My eye caught an odd little bungle
OF mendiDg and patchwork combined.
My heart grew suddenly tender,
And something blinded my eyes,

Among the Adirondacks.
LAKE DUNMORE, Aug.

LAKE DUNMORE, Aug. IA.
1t was after dinner, Wednesday,
Aug. A, that the pouring rain gave us
permission to visit the sport most inter
esting historically of all our trip. Two
miles from Lake Placid is North Elba,
a seedy hamlet, of dozen poor build
ings, yet towards which currents of
prilgrimage already set that are to flow
perennially. Here is the grave of John
Brown of Osawattomie. A guide board
on the river road points down a we'll
travelled lane, which presently through
a gate and piece of woods, leads in
half mile to a clearing and farm build
ings, where the road ends. This was
the home of the grotesque old hero,
from which he sailed forth with his
SONS to inaugurate at Harper's Ferry
the overthrow of American slavery
Save one son, inhabiting lonely island
in Lake Erie, think ne descendant of
his name now remains. The nearest
other relatives are in Kansas. This
property is now in the hands of strang-
ers. The little unpainted One-story
house has suffered no change except
the removal of wing from one side to
within, and open to visitors, of whom
there seemed to be Il constant success
sion, and from whom little revenue is
realized by the sale of photographs,
maple sugar, and other articles, as me-
mentOes. Opposite, if there were n
street to reckon by, a rough fence in
closes a plot of irregular shape, con-
tanning perhaps four square rods. With
in are single grave, with a slab at its
head, and great bowlder, six or eight
feet high and twice that long and wide.
The grave is that of the great aboli-
Zionist. The headstone, erected origi-
nally to the memory probably of Il
grandfather of the same name, he had
brought from Virginia. Below that
earlier inscription one has been added
to his own memory, and still lower one
to that of son who was shot in the af-
fair at Harper's Ferry. On the reverse
of the stone are the names of his other
sons who perished, one also at Harper's
Ferry, and one in the previous anti
slavery troubles in Kansas. On the
broad, sloping top of the bowlder is the
simple inscription in plain gothic let
| tering,
JOHN BROWN.
1859.
Vandal hands have shamefully mutt
lated the slab for pieces to carry
away as mementoes. To prevent fur
ther depredations, a wooden sheath is
now let down over it when no guardian
is in sight. An illustration of this sin
gular propensity appeared while stood
by the grave. Among several visitors
were two ladies who claimed to be
from Osawatomie (the first syllable of
which they pronounced long, as in
Osage), and dacquaintancesO of that branch
of the family. One of them, after an
swering a question of mine respecting
the relatives, remarked that she was
strongly tempted to carry them piece
| of the gravestone. AS the remark SEEM

moved to another empty one further
forward. Yet even there, as if fate had
marked me, late conner appeared as
its evident proprietor. All this was
soon forgotten in the excellent sermon
and other services which followed.
Mondays ride of thirty miles
brought us into Vermont. We were
disappointed at having left behind the
views of Fort Frederick, before we
were aware of it, from not knowing our
geography lesson. But though it cost
the British ten millions of dollars, the
part of which we had not already ex-
amined with our field glass from across
Bulwagga Bay seemed hardly worth
twelve miles additional travel. So we
BurgOyne was there, and kept away.
Through region of excellent farms,
over a road whose rutty roughness of
sun baked clay Jared like Il cObble
pavement, we passed through Ticon-
deroga Street, to thriving Ticonderega
Village; thence along the western shore
CT beautiful Lake George, in sight of
Anthony's Nose, to Rogers Rock back
to Ticonderoga, and to the fort. Draw
ing near we pass earthworks, well pre-
served, overgrown now with trees. The
ruins of the fortress stand out alone
and conspicuous on bluff, which COM
maDds the lake, but which, as Bur-
goyne's cannon taught St. Clair, is it
self commanded by Mount Defiance, a
little to the southwest. Perhaps a mile
north of the fort is a ferry. Could
there he better illustration of inexact-
ness than sail ferry? You will find
the boat anywhere within half mile
of the lane by which you have come
down to the shore, as far ont in the wa
ter as where its apron saw fit TO drop,
and to be reached by wading or taking
another boat, as can be arranged. The
end of the voyage is marked, not by
reaching the other shore, but by the
dropping of the lee-bOard, and you
plunge off, perhaps upon the land, per-
haps into the water, and then elect by
which of half dozen tracks that offer,
you will be led up to the road on which
your Journey is to he resumed. If only
they did all so lead The one we chose,
at Larrabee's Point, led through NOW
ing lot, then the barnyard, then more
moving lot, and then to fence, which
let us through only after taking out all
the bars.
That night we slept in Salisbury,
from which we are now but two miles
distant. We have spent four days at
the north end of Lake Dunmore, a
| beautiful sheet of water, three miles by
one or less, snugly secluded among the
Green Mountains, clear as crystal, well
stocked with trout and boats,-a quiet
retreat, uninvaded by style,-in its way
a model.
With more regret for its own sake,
than any other spot since leaving home,
we bid adieu to Lake DnnmOre. Sat
