The farmer satin bia easy chair, Smoking his pipe of clay, While bis hale old wife, with busy care, Was clearing the dinner away; A sweet little girl, with bright blue eves, On her grandfather's knee was catching flies. The old man placed his hand on her head, With a tear on his wrinkled face He thought how often her mother (now dead) Had sat, long ago, in that place. As the tear stole down his half shut eye, "Don't smoke," said the child," for itmakes you cry." -The house-dog slumbered upon the flo wneretne sun, alter noon would steal The busy old wife, by the open door, ' Wss turning the spinnipg wheel And the old brass clock on the mantel-tree, . Had plodded along to almost Hires. Still the farmer sat in his easy chair, While close to his heaving breast, The moisten'd brow and the head so fair Of his grandchil' I dear were press'd: His silver locks 'mid her golden hair lay Fast asleep were they both on that summer day. . A Backwoods Judois' Charor. .Murder, gentlemen ia where a man is murderously killed. The killer in eu-li a rase ia a murderer. Mur der by poison is as much murder at murder with a gun. It ia the murdering which constitutes murder in the eye ol the law. You will bear in mind that murder is one thing and manslaughter another; therefore, if it is not manslaughter it must bo murder. Self murder has nothing to do with this raae. One man cannot commit felu tte-te on another; that is clearly my view. Gen llemen, I Hunk yon ran have no difficulty. Murder, I say, is murder. The murder of a father is called fratricide;' but it ia not fratricide if a man murders his mother. You will make up yonr minds. You know what it is and I need not tell you what it is not. I repeat, murder is murder. You may retire upon it, ifyou like. " The Expected Letttr. do think that life has a surprnse more sickenin; than that of eipecting a letter which does not come.

The Baltimore Convention. We a.k the aiiciiiioii nf the pi-ople, once more. lothe Democratic Convention which met ai Bal timore and nominated Mr. Folk for the Presiden cy. Those ofixir former political associates, We mean the Union men 011K, may profit with us in this inter.oursr, while, we Vreasoit Uigether." ne an not expect 10 gain the ear of tne disunion isu nor do we desire it that single word rfu tm'ot is emiogh tor us. We will not parley with them; but wall, with lli test of our cmintrymen who love the Union, for the issue ami the, crisis that may grow nut of their pre sent ascendancy over a powerful puny. Nor ilo wo expect that any appeal to the reason or the patriotism of those who preserve the "bond of ui ny" for the hpe of office, will be success ful. To ilie Pnpiewo tpeak; who, at their frmi and in their wi rkshops, in their olTices and in their Mores, ran read and think upon the mat ters mi propound lo them. W hat soriiif a man do you think should be President ol ihe greatest Republic the world ever knew? A political mountebank; a mere slump orator; a man ho is scarcely known out of hit St.teor District; or one who bat been distin guished for his rapacity to fill high and responsi ble stations, w ho lias rendered services to his coun try ol ihe retsi magnitude! It has been supposed that the man on whom this distinguished honor should he conferred, ought to be one with whose name and deeds the people are familiar. One of, whom they coi.ld I Ik, as they did of Washington, of Adams, of Jeflerson, of Madison, of Monroe, of Jackon. One at least, who had done something to exalt his own name or to add to the fame of hia country. Ha Mr. Polk dime this? , What are his claims to the most hitfh and distinguished political hon or in the - world. He has none. ; To say - we have t n thousand men on our soil, native Amer icans, who are vastly his stipefiot in all the requi sites for the Presidential Chair, is saying but little for the iniellectml improvements and the patriot ic ardor of ihe age, What, then will you become, fVtfy, the scofT ofkii gs, the jeer ol aristocrats, the scorn of all the intelligent world? Shall a country lhat pos sesses a host of men great in counsel, irong in wisi oin, brave in battle, and of noble reputa tion, pass over them all, and select a man for their'Chief, who is a mere political debater a scuOler for office, and who, compared lo them, and especially to his great and honorable oppo nent, Henry Clay, dwindles into a mere scrub? And what is all this degredation for? We speak of the nomination the disgraceful, shameful nomination of the Baltimore Democratic Convention. It is not Mr. Polk's election we dread but it is of the foul dishonor brought upon republican institutions, the reproach upon the. principles of popular will, that we speak. And what are the professions which we make to mankind? Wh v. that In this land of liberty. this chosen soil of eqpl rights tub Votes or the People is the Soverkion; aye, often do our orators declare, as n triumphant expression of a glorious truth Vox Populi Vox Dei the Voice of the People is the Voice of Ood! Wat Mr. Polk nominated by the voice of the people? No. A knot of intriguing, contriving, plotting, faithless pardzans, met together for the ostensible purpose of expressing the people's will, disregarded that voire they pretended to re verence, and substituted their own umpirage for the guidance and government of their constitu ents. The qualifications, which in every age and every nation, have more or less weight with the ruling power? were here-ef no evail.-The whole matter was settled on the pretended ground of "uniting a party," while, In fact, the selection was made with a view to provide a tool to an swer the purpose of faction aud this insult to the party, the country and to mankind, is "tick lied o'er" with a faint "hurra" about Texat and annexation. ... ' , All the motives by which freemen should be actuated; all the impulses by which patriots should be incited, and the wisdom and prudence requiste for the adjustment of great and important questions, are discarded in this Convention and riot, and noise, and vulg.ir declamation, and jaco binical uproar are substituted in their place and as a crowning mnlaciiy presents to the people a political charlatan, and says; Behold the man of ifdur choice this is he whom the people "de light to honor!" The Voice ol the Peoplp, where is it? Is that the voice of the people which we hear issuing from the foul throat of treason which talkt of Polk and Texat and Disunion? - While the Con vention declares Polk is your man, the "parly" responds- disunion is the watch word. We tell ihe Union men thai they have stuck to the demo cratic party, till the ancient landmarks have been one bt one removed; till every shred and patch of the garment they once wore is frittered lo the windi4, ahd nothing now remains but a foul snd filthy carc iss upheld by demigojues and sus tained by traitors. But what sort ofa man shall be President of ihis f-real nation? Shall. it Ji he w ho 4li rmi tfh a long course of public service has shewn himself competent in that knowledge wlneh afleria the in terest and the dignity of nations who is capable of counselling his rountry men in times of difficul ty, an I guiding lh-m by his wisdom to the haven of safety in the hour of peril or who has balded for hi country and for freedom, in the field, here "nerve with nerve, aye, soul contends;" who hat "foughi nations' quirrele and been crowned with j conquest?' The heart and the voice of the peo- : pie Say these are the men thee are the he- j roes and the statesmen that are worthy lo control our destiny. 1 But what does "the party' sav? What do sel fish politicians and unprincipled demagogues say? Why the man that would be President, let him get a county court licence let him practice talk ing there, and then go out to the people as an "orator let him minister 10 their passions and their prejudices acquire their confidence by in trigue and management and then lie may hope, some day, to be President, in order "to unite the party." Oh, shame! ' There is a voice from the geniut of the Consti tution that eriet to you "Come out of them My Poople be ye not partakers of their sins, Obey the lurornonr, like men who, love country better than party,' snd freedom better than demav gogtiism.
