And sigh in vain for thee ?

Thou'rt so kind to me.
I climb the pathway to thy sphere
And knock thy chamber door,

A "license" full of pith and grace
To till each modest lay;
A power to preach, a power to pray
On baseless thoughts and things.
I ask no more* Wilt thou restore
My Pagasaus his wings'?
I have no mind for mighty dreams,
I ne'er can be sublime ;
I ne'er can swim etherinl streams
Nor sound Apollo's chime.
But give me thoughts and give me things

And y Vo the high-toned minstrel sings

And thou wert prone to smile;
And by the power thou did'st impart

Nor even in righteous glee.

OUB CANDIDATES.
The Democratic Convention held in this
towu
Thursday lust, placed in nomina
tion lor the office of Governor, John P.
Cochrau, of New Castle county, and Ibr
Representative iu the next Congress, James
Williams, ot Kent county. These gentle
men are well-known to the people of Dela
ware and need 110 formal introduction to the
electors of the State. Both of them
native Delawareans, and long life Demo
crats, unswerving in their fidelity to the
principles of the party, nud entitled lo tho
confide
cracy of the State.
Mr. Cochran, as is known, i9 one of tho
most Buccesslui farmers in Delaware, hav
ing devoted almost Ilia entire life to agricul
tural pursuits, and hy his industry and close
tlteniion to business succeeded in accumu
lating a handsome fortune. Proud of liis
native State, he has invested the profits of
his busiuess in lands in his own neighbor
hood which he has improved and enriched
and thus added to the material interest aud
prosperity of his section of the State.
While others have sought profitable invest
ments lor their money in the slocks and
bouda of foreign corporations, Mr. Cochran
has used hia means not only to benefit him
self, bat also to advance the agricultural in
terests of his own couuty. He is an ac
pliahed gentleman, urbane and courteous
111 his bearing, and will make a governor, if
elected as he will be, of wkoiu the people
of the State will have just causu to be proud.
Mr. Williams, our candidate for Congress,
Is a gentleman of the higest character, a
imui of sterling lutegrlty aud spotless repu -
tation. He has served 111 both house» of the
legislature, and presided us .Speaker over the
Stute .Sonate, und has had a legislative ex
perience which eminently qualities him for
th«* position of a Representative in Congress.
Mr. Williams did not seek and we are satis
fied did not desire the nomination, but
venture nothing in saying that no
would guard more sacredly tho honor and
interests ol the Btate or comtnaud
Representative In Congress a higher degree
of respect. With such a ticket the Demo
cracy of Delaware can again enter the can
vass assured of success. Let there b«

The Platform.
Every Evening.
Ils indictment ot the Republican parly's
National policy, ot course expresses the
common sentiment of Democrats every w h re,
while thc8p<icial counts of tbeinuictiueul in
relatiou to the action of the National Gov
ernment iu the affairs of Louisiana und
South Carolina; for the gross discourtesy
with which the best citizens of the latter
State were treated by the President: for tbe
personal favor shown lo th«: guilty officials
who have plundered the Southern States,
will meet with a favorable response outside
the Democratic ranks.
The protest agaiusl "issuing aud maintain
ing an unconstitutional currency without iu
triusic value, whose fluctations are the
slant profit of speculators at the cost of
the laboring classes, and whicli demoralizes
and unsettles commerce in all its brunches,*
has the ring of the true metal in it, and we
are surprised that it was uot accorded the
promiuenco of a separate resolution.
The denunciation of the proposed Civil
Rights Bill, we have not a doubt, is in ac
cord with the sentiments of three-fourths of
the white men of this and every other Border
and Southern Slate, aud for that matter, the
whole country, and will doubtless streugth
en the party's Congressional ticket. The
declaration against that abomination, tho
Poland press-gag law, will meet with tho
hearty concurrence of every true friend of
freedom everywhere.
Tho indictment ot Mr. Lotlaud, our pres
ent Representative tu Congress, for hia
vacillating course in regard lo the Civ.I
Rights bill, might well huvo been supple
mented by a scathing rebuke to his whole
Congressional career, his utter worthlessness
and unimportance as a Cougressmau, his
close affiliation with George P. Fisher in
Washington, and with the worst class of
his own party iu this State, his attempt to
make Charles H. Gallagher Postmaster of
Wilmington, iu utter disregard of decency
and of the strougly expressed sentiment of
the whole business community. The com
pliment to Senators Bayard aud Huulsbury
is, in the uialo, just, tor though Saulsbuiy
is hy no means brilliant, he has proved him
self an eminently safe and reputable Senator,
and has made one or two really able and
sound speeches which have commandai the
respect of the Senate aud country, while Mr.
Bayard's record has buen confessedly one of
moat brilliant of any member of the prosoat
Senate, aud bis career is one DeJawareaus
uiay well be proud of, whether they differ
from him in political opinion or not.

[ From the New York Sun of Sat unlay. \
The Lust Wa shiny ton Pascal it y
The more the recent Washington out
rage upon justice is examined the worse
it appears. Before it was perpetrated
the very strongest suspicions existed and
were justified by all the facts that Rich
ard Harrington, who is employed in the
District Attorney's office in Washington
to prosecute the criminal business, was
one of the principals, or at least one of
the active accomplices in the so-called
burglary which has attracted so much
attention recently.
His own office was selected as the
scene, and his own iron safe as the sub
ject of this operation. He placed books
in it obtained from one of the most no
torious contractors, intended to form a
link in the chain of fabricated testimony
against Mr. Alexander, to whom, accord
ing to the plan of the conspiracy, they
were to be delivered, and would have
been but for a providential interposition
which defeated the villainy.
On the evening of the burglary, and
several hours in advance of its
rence, Harrington informed the Chief of
Police of the events of that night, and
the intentions^ of the burglars, just
they subsequently happened,
present on the ground with a chosen
body of confederates, and assumed to
direct the police in oil their actions
plea that his
he was the public prosecutor.
He refused to allow the burglars
be arrested in the house, or after they
came out and deliberately approached the
spot where he and his party were stand
ing. He permitted one of them to w alk
leisurely off, and followed the other (Ben
ton), who was appointed to entrap Mr.
Alexander, until lie neared his house, and
there pointed it out in answer to Be
ton's inquiry and gave him the full name.
After the explosion he left his own office
open, and it was visited by hundreds the
next day before any examination could
be made, which added to the disorder.
He withdrew from the Police Headquar
ters all the papers found in the bag that
Benton carried off, and evidently to des
troy links of evidence that might lie dam
aging to the King.
All these acts are Rigns of guilt, and
are incapable of explanation consisient
witli innocence. They are confirmed by
others equally damning which have just
come to light. It is well kriowu th:
Benton was irritable under his confine
ment, and had recently signified a dispo
sition to tell the whole story if he could
be protected against the hostility of his
criminal associates in New York. The
Ring who employed him hail promised
only a few weeks' imprisonment at most,
and large pay. Neither pledge had been
kept in good faith, and ho was impatient
and resentful at being made the scape
goat of the villains who had put up the
job.

the whole concern and all involved, when
the court should come together on tho 25th
of this month. That was the moving cause
d explains why
the eve of the reasaern*
of the recent proceedings,
he was sot free
bling of the Grand Jury.
Harrington was abaeiit^liom Washington
in the East. He came to the city a few days
ago, and ns it believed alter an undeistaud
"g with the parties who appear in the trans
action, went to.Washiugton with Somerville
and the bail. There lie applied to Judge
Oiin for the order of release, or appeared to
sustain the application, and that order oi
the Judge is iu Harrington's handwriting.
To guard against publicity, the proceedings
were delayed uulii late iu the eveuing, aud
it war, alter nightfall when the Clerk of
the Court and the Marshal were tumid to
complete the formalities. G. 1\ Fisher, the
District Attorney, is known to have
peisonally in this business,
with Harrington m a carriage in search oi

necessary before the release could bo con
summated. Vet lie took care while thus
participating to dodge the rt
for himself, und to plaee it

Harrington himself bad swoin before the

as Assistant U, S. Attorney, aud there is
none. Yet lu; not only certifies iu that
capacity, but the Mai shal releases a prisoner
the most serious charges, upon

which commuuded the "Distxict Attorney"
to certity, aud uo other person. That this
tuck was part of the Iruud whicli ruus ull
through, is hardly to bo doubted. After
Harrington had thus completed his special
mission to Washington, he left there again,
aud doubtless conceited here for the
cealment of Benton.
But there is still a worse feature in this
business. The Department of Justice
confided the prosecution of this burglary
business entirely to Mr. A. G. Riddle, as
a special Assistant Attorney-General. It
was taken out of the hands of Fisher and
Harrington absolutely. They had
manner of connection with it. Mr. Rid
dle appeared before the Grand Jury, and
conducted the examination of witnesses
until the Court took arecess. He is now
absent from Washington and Fisher and
Harrington took advantage of that oppor
tunity to impose on a weak and credulous
judge and to obtain an order to aid tho
escape of a notorious criminal, held sub
ject to expected indictments, indepen
dent of others already found against
him,
Here is the extraordinary spectacle of
prosecuting otticers of tho United States
colluding and conspiring against their
sworn duties, and helping to effect the
release of an outlaw connected with one
of the most diabolical crimes on record.—
This zeal was well understood, It is a
part of the original conspiracy to^protect
the Ring who connected the burglary to
strike down the memoraliats. Fisher and
Harrington were beneficiaries of that
Ring, identified with all its enormi
ties, and ready to do its bidding in any
way.
It may be asked, will such an outrage
be tolerated by the 1'res ident / Certain

the Ring and shared in Rg benefits. The

It is surprising that so many families
in the couutry are willing to live year
after year without cultivating a single
grape-vine about their dwellings. They
are compelled to purchase this delicious
fruit for table or not tasto it during the
season. There is a common impression
that to cultivate grapes perfectly, a vast
amount of knowledge and taste is requir
ed. To many the simple trimming of a
vine is a mystery. This is an erroneous
view, and ought not to .prevail. Any
person of common intelligence can learn
in an hour how to trim and nourish
vines, and if instruction cannot be ob
tained lrom some experienced cultivator,
there are books lilied witli cuts and illus
trations whicli make everything plain.
Three vines of as many varieties,planted
in some sunny nook, or by the side oi
some building, so as to obtain shelter,
will, if properly cared for, furnisli many
a bushel of delicious grapes every year.
