No wonder, for it was the wildest night I had ever known inall my life, and the country road over which:! took my way was as baa ana as aarK p. nnm.trv n,ml In iri.ru.nil. f'rmu- quently I was walking at a great rate, ) witn tne collar ot a rougn coat over mv nnri niuiinninfartiir t lml nvcrmv stilt hat and under my chin to kcepl,lis '"P" wlien a dliriok on tlie air, and it on and to nroteet mv ears, when ' sudilenlyaman stood full in my puth, . . . . . .'. . ' ..1,1... . . . . .. . . S .1 ....... and caught me by the arm. "Hullo!" said he. "You're Justin time; you are wanted at the Cross roads to-night." The voice was the voice of a ruffian. I fancied myself attacked by a high wayman. 1 stood quite still, and strove to show him by my manner that I was able to protect myself. "What the deuce am I wanted at the Cross roads for?" said I. "Unless I choose, It would be hard to get me there." But, instead of producing a pistol and demanding my money or life, the man answered in an altered tone. "Beg pardon. I made a mistake. I thought it was brother and wanted to frighten him. Bad night, sir." "Very!" said I. "You don't know the time?" he asked. "It was seven when I left the train at L ," I sold. "Thoukye,"suidtheman. "Good night 1" If his object had licen robbery, pro bably he had decided, from my rough mu fliers, that I was too poor a mun to be worth the trouble. But after all, I said, probably he spoke the truth. A man may nave such a voice, without being a lilgli wsayman, no doubt. So I went on homeward, and soon found myself under shelter, and par taking of a warm and savory supper. Mother was there and my brother Ben. Ben was a great strapping fel low who could beat any other boy of his age for miles around, If it came to wrestling or boxing, and as good-humored a tioy as ever lived; a boy al wavs to his mother, and I thought he hod exercised his right to vote already 1 . T I I .1-1 . I I in uiio nwiut'iiniii ciifiioii. Whoa supper w a over and wLaxl chatted for on hour, we wont up stairs together. We shore one room. The moment Ben's head touched the pillow he always went to sleep. That night I followed his example. But I did not sleep long witiiout a dream in which I felt a rough grip on my arm and was roused by a crying in my ear. "Wake up! you're wanted at the Cross 1 totals ." It was so real, sopapaHo, thatwhen I started broad awake 1 actually be lieved that some one wasin the room; the man who hud met me on the road, perhaps, and who intended rob bery or violence. But when I hud lit my lump the room was empty, ex cept myselfund Beu, lying snoring on nis piuow. 1 went to the door: it was locked. I went to the window; the rush of rain against the panes was ull I heard. 1 even went ueross the pussago to my iiiuiiiri itfijui. r-uu v iui Hiviihe; there had been noun usual sound, she wns surts , Only ft dream born of mv meetinir with tiie strange man upon the road I felt sure had awakened me. Again I wus awakened by the same words tills time shrieked in my cur by tin unearthly voice. " like up ! wake tin ! vou're want ed at the Cross Itoads." 1 was on my feet once more, and caught Hcn'sliund as lie ennio to my lied. " W lint ails Vou ?" he cried. "Nothing," 1 replied. "Did you hoar a voice !" "Yours," said Ben, "yelling 'woke up.' You fairly frightened me." "Ben," suid I, "wait until 1 light the lamp. 1 heard another voice. There must be some tine iu the house or outside." Ho I lit the lamp, and we searched, but in vain. "Nightmare," said Ben, when, I told him my story. "Ben," said I. "wliut Is there ot the Cross Roads?" "A house," said Ben. Hehud lived in the neighborhood a long while, and I not long. "One little house, besides two onk trees and a fence. An old man lives there, a rich old fellow, ami a bit of a miser they say. His grand daughter keeps house for him." "Ben," said I, "that fellow may have meant harm to them, wanted at the Cross Itomls.

Muslin curtains draped the panes, but through it we saw an awful sight. An old man luy upon the floor, ond over him bent a rulllan, clutching his throat, and holding a pistol to his ear while another man grasjied a shriek ing girl by the urm a girl in a float ing nightdress with such long gold en hair us belonged to the woman of my vision. "Not a moment was wasted." Ben flung his weight ugalnst the slender lattice and crushed It in, and we hud grappled with the rufllans be fore they knew whence the attack ciime or how many foes were upon them I do not' Intend to describe the struggle; indeed, I could not, if I would. But we werestrong meu and inspired by the cries of the helpless did man and the terrified girl, soon hud oneof thevillians bound, and the other lying prostrate on the floor. Then Ben started for assistance and before morning both were in jail. Ben admitting, as we shook each other by the hand, that we were "wanted at the Cross Roads." The old man wasnot a miser, but he had some few thousand for his old age, and living more plainly than he need have done, had itlven rise to the rumor, and so brought the burglars to the Cross Roads iu the hope of, tiooty. The girl, a beautiful creature of sev enteen was his crand-dauirhter. and as no story is acceptable to the lady reader without a flavor of romance, I will tell them that she became In after years, not my wife, but the wife of my darling brother Ben. Tim following is said to be the last from Mr. Vallundiglium, who though virtually laid upon the shelf, is about as 'live a man as Chase : THE PLATFORM AS IT SHOULD BE. Mr. Vallandlgham lays it down as Inevitable that' "any nomination or plutiorm ut New York, which tacitly or openly concedes that the Demo cratic purty during the war made it self odious'by complicity orsympathy with ' treason,' and therefore must lie openly killed nil' or quietly suppressed, or which is tacitly or expressly com mitted to the proscription of the men in tins North and est who refused active support to the war," would be followed by a convention of bolters who would procluiin the ancient and rugged principles of Democracy. Al solutc equality and toleration, with out regard to the war, Is demanded for all men copperhead Democrats, war Democrats, una uepuuneans who net with the Democratic party in the coming snuggle against itudical Ism.

A True Story or the rant. It was In the dark and bloody dnys of Murrell, when his lines extended from the Kate of Oeorgia to Texas through which he kept up a constant communication witli his clan. In those days it was fatal forany traveler to be found In his trail, especially westof the Mississippi river. The In cident that I am about to relate, was related to me the other day by a friend who lived In the country where It oc curred. A traveler to the west, after crossing the Mississippi river at lcKsburg, missed ids route, and fell Into the Murrell trail. After traveling all day in the dense wilderness, he began to have fears that he was on the Murrell truil, but concluded that he would push forward, hoping thnt he would come to some settlement. Night came on ; Ills fears increased. At length he came in sight of a light; he drew near, and found it to be a neat habi tation, well fitted up for entertaining travelers. He called and was very kindly received by his host so tliut all Id's former fenrs were dissipated. His horse cured for, himself refreshed by a bountiful supper, lie was easy for a short time ; but he soon discovered signs that ho did not like. Strangers kept coming in and going out, he dis covered them in private conversation, which ho could not understand, and which served to increase his fears that he was among " the'clun." Finally bedtime came on ; he was conduetcd to u small otllce in t lie yard ; theofllce was neatly furnished, with a good Is-d, washs'tund, and otliereqnipments for a Isjil-room. He was told by his host that "when ho retired to blow out the candle." His host, when leaving the room, closed the door und locked it. lie now fully saw his situ ation. He felt as none can rrall.cluit those in his then situation. He took the candle and examined the room carefully. He found that theehimney was suuled up to prevent escape. No windows to thu room, and tiie door locked. He now fully realized h sit uation, and on further examination, under tlio led, lol.und behold ! a dead man I Reader, can you reolizo it?

In the mean time, it is in cumhent upon the Democracy to ex press an opinion upon the old subicct which they have always expressed which they always will express while tlicv are faithful to their principles und traditions, inanely : that "this is a white man's government," made by white men exclusively, to Ikj ad ministered by white men exclusively. ff the bene lit of ull who may make a lcsiuence in it. The Democracy do not contend thnt the Federal Government has the power to regulate sullrage in the .states. On the contrary, they repu- aiate ana denounce it. Hut the Rad icals have been using the Federal Government to that end. It Is in cumbent upon the Democracy to de clare that interference Is llle'iral. rev olutionary and outrageous, and must bo stopped. Nay, further, it is their duty to Insist that all the efforts which have been made by the Federal authorities toestabllsh negro suflraga iu the South, are really void und pos sess no binding force. We are aston ished, therefore, that the World should recommend the following : "We therefore oonolude that a decent selfrespect requires that our national nlat- form shall say nothing on tho subject. If we recommend interference, we shall re. noiince a riiudaiiienUil principle of the C'onatitiitlon. If we prorlatm non-Inter-f. riice, we shall set our seal to wlu.t we ab hor. It will be wiser lodo neither," . , There Is not one Democrat In ten thousand who is In favor of negro suf frage, or who la prepared to acquiesce In it, North or South, any longer than It can be stopped there is not one who does not know that all tho negro elections in the South have been a criminal mockery and a shameful farce, ouUldeof the Constitution, and yet the IVorfri would have us all dumb on this great question. It would have us abandon all our ante cedents. It would have us do injus tice to our strongest convictions. It would have us be fulse to tho xoplc of the South, who ure now trodden under ftsit by negro insolence, bucked up by mil itury power. It would have us dishonor ourselves and degrade the organization. It would have us throw away every chance of success in the election. The Democracy silent on the question of negro sullrage in the South as Is now presented to us ! Better would It be to piny the tragedy of Hamlet, omiting the "I'rince of Denmark" himself, than for the De mocracy tothcdtiinb und volccle-s on this villlauous attempt to handover ten States, against the unanimous protest of their whlto Inhabitants, to the rule of negro barbarians. The WorM'a suggestion wrll not be heed ed. Tiie Democracy will speak on negro sullrage in tho New York 'Con vention. They will speak very loud.

The Imnes of domcstlcllfc arelittlc ness, falsity, vulgarity, harshness, vo ciferation, scolding, liu incessuiil issu ing of superfluous prohibitions and orders, which ure regarded aslinperli nent interferences with the general liU'i'ty unit ropoHO und are provoca tive of rankling or exploding rexent meuts. Tho blessed antidotes that sweeten and enrich domestic life are refinement, high aims, great Interests, soft voices, quiet and gentle manners, maguuniinous tempers, forbcuruuee from nil unnecessary contmunds or dictation, and gcneroui allowances nf mutual freedom. Love makes obedi ence lighterthun liberty. Mun wears a noble allegiance, not as a collar, but as a garland. The Graces are never so lovely as when seen waiting on tho Virtues; and where they thus dwell together, they make a hcavely home. No ullection, save friendship, hue any sure eternity In It. Friendship ought, therefore) nlwuys to be culti vated in love Itself, as Its only certain guard und preservative, not less than ns the only suUleing substitute in Its ahsenee. A couple joined by love without friendship, walk on gunpow der witli torches intheir hands. Shall 1 venture to depict tho sad decay, which love naturally sutlers, and tho redemptive transformation which it sometimes undergoes? I will do It by translating a truthful and eloquent passage from Chateaubriand : "At first our letters are long, vivid, frequent. The day Is not capacious' enough for them. We write ut sun set; at Jrtooilrlse we trace a few moro lines, charging Its chasto and silent light to hide our thousand desires.---' We wot oh for tlw first peep of dawn to write what we believe we had for-. gotten to say in delicious hours of our , meeting. A thousand Vows cover the papery where all the rnacs of Au rora ure reflected; a thousand kisses arc-pi anted on the words, which seem born from the first glance of the sun. Not an Idea, on image, a reverie, on accident, a disquietude) which has not its letter. Lo! one morning, sometliingulmost impcrilcptiblestcalii on the beauty of this passion.
