"MY BEAUTIFUL—MY OWN."
BY LILY LARKSPUR.
Sweet Spring was brralliing aoft and still,
And flowers were opening in the brevau j
Glad music rnme lnm o'er the hill,
And from the waving trees ;
The south-wind made the leaflets dance
To Nature's joyous, happy tone.
When first 1 nut thy thrilling gUnce
"My Iteautitul my Own."
Thine eyes were tike the Vy'a soft blue
Xliy ateu scarce bent the dewy iluwera
Thy heart was jver kiud ami true,
In those bright, happy hours.
Thon nert o tH'.iiitiful'and fair
Thy tresses by the soft breero blown
My heart went out to meet the lber .
" My Heautil'ul my Own."
O, happy was the (rnileles liearf
All joyous, if I were but near
But always when we came to part,
1 saw the rising tear.
The aunahiue danced across our way.
And joys around our path were thrown.
Our heurts weru voting, and light, and gav
"My Ut-auliful-T-niy On a,"
But weary tears are starting now
I miss a dear .me fnm my side
I miss a soft band on my brow
A veiec to praiso or riiide :
I list to catch its tones in vain.
Fir, Oil I that happy dream has flown;
I'll nrverknow such joy iignin
" ily Iteautitul my Own."'
I'm lonely on this Summer-night,
And tears are streaming tnun my eyes,
Wlnle gazing on the stars ao bright
In yomltr quiet hkiea;
And iu the moonlight's gentle chain,
I'm watching by thy giave aline.
And sigi.iug lor that vanished dieum--
"My lleaiititul my Out 11."

In Memory of Thomas A. Donaldson.
MURDERED BY HIS PATTER.
It was a Summer night we ever shall rcmcin
ber The busy cores of day were hushed nnd gone,
The August moon shone down in nil its splendor,
The night bird sang its sad and plaintive song ;
And there amid night's gathered shadows.
With vengeful passion and- with cruel art,
A father, drew a knite in deadly anger,
And plunged it in his boy's Voi'mg. manly heart.
And this was all his crime f J01W hit iW,
And tried to aid her, iu his sense of right
A mother, w hour his dither'a fatal anger
Bad iln von from his home, and jioin his sight.
And when he found his lite was last receding,
These were the words that trembled illi his
breath :
"Oh, frknds! be kind to my poor mother!"
. And linn hia voice was liuahed, for aye, in death.
It must be hard to Uiu in youth and beauty,
Jus", na life's joys are bursiing into view
And lite, to him, was just an sweet and precious
As life is ever loiho eood and true:
And harder slill must be the bitter deaili-nan".
When life is severed br a kindred one.
Oh I hard of heart, indeed, must in the mortal.
Who thus oould kill hia licljlu, fiist-boin ton!

Andrew Johnson was convicted by the
country ! though it may be coinpi l'i d to re
late how' he escaped the consequences of
his crimrs through the weakness of dis
honored Senators.
THE SYRACUSE STANDARD ON THE SITUATION.
Thnt defection exists in high qtlartors
we admit. I'pori tho roll of eiidiii ing in
famy it is too apparent thnt certain Sena
tots are to write their own mines ; that a
few of freedom's chosen leaders are to com
mit moral sud political suicide, fenator
Trumbull, ol Illinois, elected under the
strongest pledges n( allegiance to tho pop
ular cuuse, deserls it when bis services are
tho most needed : and Senator 1'essenden
negatives a ln'o of usefulness by n crowning
net ol pel fidy. They rush upon the fate
they deserve. The nation will bitterly re
member their names, und write apostate
upon their tombs. It iaapolit
icu I us well ns a judicial question, r.ml the
American people) will hold him guilty of
the grossest abandonment of true political
principles, who votes for Ihe acquittal of
Andrew Johnson. Such will be gihbitcd
iu I heir scorn, and condemned to their exc
cralioiis. l.et them understand it,
TtiK riiii.AiiKi.niiA North amkhicanV opinion.
Such hahilual grumblers ns Grinn s and
1'essenden might be expected to fail us.
Hut we read ol the defection of such men
as Trumbull with nma'.einctil. Here is the
author of the Civil Rights net, nnd of the
Freodinen's Bureau Hct, ns full of legul
quibbles and technicalities 11s Slanberry
hiiiisclr. Tho general belief is
that somo of the delinquents hnvo- been
paid iu money. Wc nay general, because
among BepiiblicntiS we can scarcely find
any one who does not entertain the belief.
The proposition to buv them was made
openly in the Now York World, and the
money could have been raised, to any
amount, from wtll known sources, lie this
as it may, and whether Johnson should
now be convicted or acquitted, tho l!e-
puhlicatiR of this laud have nn account
10 settle with men who have carried
their heads very high in tho Senate
und in tho party, aud who have forced
themselves into responsible positions only
to become, troublesome, and dangerous by
their incessant way warJness. Their names
stand on the records of the Senate wilh
their fcllow-llepublicaus aa voting against
Johnson on tho very, points against which
ho 111 rayed himself in his 'breach of law.
let now they ullect to ue unable to sco
anything inimical in the dangerous work
of nullification. If not corrupt, thoso men
must be regarded us stiperatinuatod, since
thoir failure to appreciate so grave an issue
otherwise unaccountable.

My Wife and my Son's Wife.
As a bias, my wife was ft bnxom woman,
glowing with health and happiness. Oh
the redness of her plump cheeks and the
brightness of her sparkling eyes! She did
Hot need lo respond, In her 'lienitv merrv
tonis, tn Inquiries nftcr her health". " I am
very well, thank you ! " 1 1 or rosy cheeks
and roumlod form, and clear, strong tones
testified to her well-being.
Ai. n lass, my son John's wife was t pjlo
and fragile creature, like a lily or a snow,
(lake, John said. She bad mild, languid
eyes aud a thin, bnby voice that responded
faintly to inquiries after her health : " I am
minei able to day ; " nnd tho next day would
say, " I nm not so well as I was yesterday."
As n married woman, my wife's netves
are a help to her und me; but I am of the
opinion that tho . nervrs of my son John's
wifo arc more of a hindrance than n help.
There ia tho same difference in the heads
nnd hearts nnd bones snd backs of the two
w-onien. My wife's head plans, contrives,
considers and designs. The head of my
son's wtfu aches, throbs nud is always
ready to split. My wife's heart is a good,
steady, huiunu heart, lull of pure blood and
Ihe seat of womanly affections. The heart
of my son's wifo is Ihe sent of disease, nnd
its blood lacks iron. My wife's bones aro
equal to tho full duties incumbent upon
sound bones, but tho bones of my son's
wife are deficient in soda, or magnesia,
nnd m e full ol aches and jinina. My wife's
back is strong lo bear the burdens of the
day, but the hick of my son's wife is al
ways broken and troubled with lumbago.
My wife takes for her model tho virln.
mis woman in Proverbs: " Sho risetlt
whi'e it is yet night nnd givelh meat to
her household and bread to her maidens
My son's wile riseth towards noon, nnd
has very indistinct notions what kinds of
meats the lioitshehold is fed with, or what
knwrnf bread her maidens are eating.
My w ife hits quick, elastic Bteps and ran
id moving hands that aru always bnsv.
I, ike the king's virtuous woman, "She gird
eth her loins with strength, nnd strength
eiu th her nuns."
My sou John's wife moves slowly and
gracefully, and her hands are generally
lidded in elegai.t repose. The girding of
her loins is not strength, I nm sure, but
some arrangement of w halebone.
aiy wiie s industry is well directed in a
variety of useful employments. "Sho lay
eth liar hands to Ihe crotchct ncedlo and
her hands hold the tatting shuttle.
My wile is always wU ibessed, snd her
garments aro mainly of domestic manufac
ture. She !.ns a prololvpo in the habit of
the virtuous woman, who " makclh herself
coverings of tapestry."
My son John's wile is gorgeously attired
ill eoc'ety ; but my son John groans over
the bills from importers, dress-makers and
milliners.
My wife is charming at the breakfast ta
bio. Smooth hair, a tidy dress, a white
collar, and a smiling I.icc make up her
charms.
My sou's wifo, if sho nppcars nt tho lirenk-fast-lnblo,
in not thartniii'r. Her hair is
in crimping-piiiR nnd cut ling papers ; her
slippers are down nt the heel, her dress is
shabby, nnd she wears no collar. Venus
herself would bo 114 ly in such attire.
My wife " openeth her mouth with wis
dom ; nud her tongue is tho law ot kind
ness."
My son John's wifo openeth her month
with complaints, nud fault-finding , nnd
fretful murmurs, ami idle gossip, nud tin
reasonable, demands, nud her tunguo is in
the habit of scolding.
My wifo looketh well to the wnys of her
household, and cutcth not the bread of idle
ness.' My son John's wife trusts the wnys of
her. household to uervnnts, and sho eats the
bread of her cook w hen she has one, and
the nearest bakers when she fins nut.
My wife is a good mother to her chil
dren. From infancy to maturity she
watched, instructed, and cared tenderly
for them. Her attention to their physical
wants has been uniform and discreet, and
her devotion to their iutcreuti has been vig
ilant and unflagging. '
My son John's wile leaves her children to
thecare ot menials. They annoy end distress
her. Their noise makes her head ache when
she is not well-dressed, and their dirty lit
tle hands soil her garments when she is
As for their manners it is the business of
their teachels to look after thotn, and what
are churches and Sabbath schools good for
if they do not lake chsrgo of their morals?
My wife's kingdom is her home. Here
she lavishes hor best powers and tidiest
gills, reigning a very queen.
My son John's wiio is only a queen ut
sido her Lome. Tho shabby woman, dull
aud indifferent to those whose happiness
or misery ('epsnds on her moods, develops
into a smiling, social queen iu the presence
of strangers to whom sho is under no obli
gations, und lo w hom her smiles er frowns
are of little significance.
My wife's ' husband is known in tlio
gates where ho sitteth among the elders of
the land." Bless you t He would never
have sat there but for her. flow do yon
think he is known? Why, by Ihe white
ness of his linen, nud tlio completeness of
his buttons, and the tit of his cravat, and
Ihe sleekness of his hat, and tho remnant of
a smile that srirded on his face, when, after
a good breakfast, the little woman looked
"
him over nnd dismiss d h'tn with a kiss. Ue
is known too. by tho contort that fi Is his
heart and shines out of his Into with the
tiioiigni mat uti it ay long (hat a wise wo
man is watching over her iutoresta and
looking after his dinner, nnd will be ready
to greet him when (be day's work is over,
witli smiles and kind words, Uf course
Ihe elders know him, and envy him, and
wish they stooD iu his boots.
My sou John U not known in tlio gates,
for he does not sit anions the elders of the
land. John's linen is ant to bo roiled nnd
hinged ut thcv.dgcs, his bullous are often
lucking, his collar dues not fit. his cravat
tied curclestly, his bat is rough, and his
uioailulolli dusty, whilo Ins face has tho
anxious look that settles there, when, after
breakfast of sour bread and muddy cidlee,
lie leaves Ills wile 111 bod, tlio baby crying,

Wanted—A Man.
The Pemoetatio party are as bad rff ns
was the aged spinster, who tired et living
a life of single blessedness, st up the cry
of ' wanted a msn." Tradition does not
inform us whether or no that petition was
answered. l?o with the Pemoeracy, the
grest cry is, ' wanted a man." Never
was a party more painfully situated. A
Presidential campaign right at hand, ami
as yet they are without any recognised
leader, or any prominent candidate for
tho honors of their 4th of July Contention.
HofTmsn won't do, becauae tie got badly
whipped iu the race with Feuton, and has
never recovered the prestige he then lost.
Beaidna, he is too strongly identified and
mixed up wilh Tsnimsny, which would be
morally certain to lose him the vote of
his own Slate, Seymour declines positively
being a candidate ; but if he had riot de
clined, is too non-committal has loo tnuoh
" beaten around the bush," ta suit the
Western nomocracy, who want nn aspirant
for party honors to talk the real doctrines
ho professes, right nut j this accounts for
the unanimity with which they rally around
Pendleton. Then there ia Hancock, no
doubt he would enjoy Ihe honor, and has
pleasant dreams that he may attain to it.
But his chances are hopeless, from the fact
that he is not availuhU. Tho President's
" second Wnshinctou" effusion settled
Hancocks hash in a hurry. The Demo
crntic leaders know from experienco what,
ever tho President recommends tho peo
pie seem lo have a savage desire to "spot i "
anil so they hnvo very vigorously let Han
cock alone. Across the " big sens," away
off in (ho sunny climes of Furope, sojourns
Mct'lellan ; hut of course he is out of the
question. His bout with Lincoln, in 1864,

don't usually do good service. Sherman,

Pendleton is strong nt the West, which
will rally around him with astiong deter
mination, to compass his nomination, and if
they enn't succeed, will very likely breed a
row iu the Convention. But theu he can't
bo nominated,
The calling of tho Convention in Now
York senttered nil his chances. Had it
been called in some Western city, Pendle

country, will fight him. backed up by Wall
street, to the denth. Such chaps ns they
don't want repudiation embraced in the
parly croed 11n.no! They hold too many
boiuln for that ! Farragut would make a
strong ctndidute ; but most unfot tnuately
ho is nn uncompromising Radical. Jeff.
Davis is not to bo thought of ; the question
of Leo's pardon has not yet been perma
nently Bottled, and Bn-ckeni idge is hin
dorod, by certain It tt lo obstacles, from going
into the Whito House juat yet.
Thus the question remains nn open ono.
Who is to be tho Democralio candidate for
President? Echo answers, who? Their
want of ti man cost them a thousand votes
in New Hampshire, whilo in Connecticut,
the namo of Grant bids fair to redeem the
State Irom Copperhead rtilo. '
Meanwhile, timo hastens on, nnd the day
approaches which will see Grant unani
mously nominated for a seat in the White
IIoiiro, by tho Chicago Convention ! and if
tho Democracy expect to make even a de
cent show of opposition to his progress
thither, they must hasten to fill their great
want, viz : a man.
A Conservative.
Tho Copperhead papers of tho milk nnd-
water sort, like tho Chicago limes, have
railed themselves and party "Conserva
tives." Tho genuine Democralio paper
which expresses tho sentiments of its party
unreservedly, tho LuCrosse Dewocrut, thus
describes " Conservative:
' Consei-rative.' "
How we hate tho word.
It is a synonym for a coward one who
bus no principle 110 heart no earnestness
nn love ot truth no confidence, in the
right no boldness none of the higher
and nobler qualities of manhood.
" Consr-reative !" '
A smooth-tongued, soft stopping, sly,
selfish, treacherous, cold-blooded, deceitful,
double-faced, forked longued sneak.
'" Conservative f"
A " neutral," ' negative'' political thing,
neither fish, flesh uor fowl," a subject
upon which we find it utterly impossible
to express our feelings, but we beg all that
class of politicians to accept our feeble
complimentary offering, with the assurances
that it is the best we cuu do for them.

Wendell Phillips on Grant and Chase.
In his speech before the Anti-Slavery
Society at New York, on Wednesday, Wen
dell Phillips said :
I would rather trust Geo. Grant in the

Judge Chase; bnt if he becomes the tool of
this iuti igue, he becomes infamous. But

Now that is exactly the condition of
General Grant and his friends. They mean
that 011 the '20th of this mouth be shull be

silent, in order that, when that lime comes,
he shall pips the exact tune required; aud
that tune shull bo dictated by tha level to

John M. Bitts has written the following
letter to afnend in Wssliington, in regard,

AUBURN, NEAR BRANDY STATION, VA.,
May 12, 1868.
DrAsFny? I have just risen from the
perusal of the Baltimore Amrricmx ami
Washington Chronicle, and conclude that
the game is up and treason is triumphant;
not the treason of secession, lor -which
there wss n remedy in the stalwart aimn
of an indignant ami injured people, who
bared their breasts to the storm aud bent
back and overwhelmed lbs traitors 6f Vl j
but what remedy have we for the ten thou
sand times accursed tiaitors ff 'C8, who,
wdien trusted most have most villainously
betrayed a nation of patriots ?
I cannot comprehend the honesty of inch
volos as we are led to believe are about to
be given j and the heart sick loathing, the
withering score, the unutterable contempt
in w hich I hold these over-sensitive, double
refined old woman politicians, whose feet
ure covered all over wilh political corns,
you may conceive, but I cannot describe.
If all men looked upon them as I do, no de
cent Republican, white or b'ack, would
ever lecognir.e one of thorn as worthy of
being associated with, or of being spoken
to again.

A Woman Two Years and a Half Old.
In a family living 011 Central-avenue, is a
child that promises to bo a card for lWnum.

With the first indication of tho presenoeof
