The Carl Schurz resolution at Chica jo adopts " the immortal principles of the Declaration of IlKlcpcnllence,,7 of which the foremost sets forth the right ful equality of men before the law. The second Chicago resolution is a flat denial of equality. The Northern white, it says, may deny suffrage to the black. The Southern white shall not. This is equality ! The Northern white, it says, shall distribute suffrage as he pleases, each State properly controlling its own dis tribution. The Southern white shall not distribute suffrage. Congress has usurped the power from each State and will maintain its usurpation. This is equality! V holesalc d isfranchisement of whites has been worked at the South by the laws of Congress. But uobod3 has been disfranchised who would vote to keep Badicals in power. This is equali ty ! One law for the North, another law for the South on the same subject. This is equality ! No negro suffrage at the North, where it has been uniformly rejected bv the people for themselves. "Whole sale negro suff rage at the South, where it is uniformly dreaded. This is equali ty ! No negro suffrage at the North, where so few are the negroes that their ignor a nee could do but little harm through the ballot. "Wholesale negro suffrage at the South, where the negroes are half or nearly half the population, and where their ignorance working through the ballot mav and must do its utmost harm. This is equality ! Gratitude, demands this, say the Chicago Badicals, yet a larger propor tion of Northern blacks fought in the war than of the Southern blacks. The Northern black is denied the suffrage The Southern black has it thrust upon him. This is equality ! Gratitude demands this, say the Chicago Badieals but gratitude to whom and for what? Gratitude to the millions of Southern blacks who helped the rebellion to the last hour of its life, who had not pluck enough to strike a blow themselves for freedom, but now have freedom's highest pri vilege thrust upon them f Gratitude to the few thousand Northern blacks who fought the rebellion, but to whom suffrage is denied t This is equality. Senator Doolittle proposed an amend ment to the last Reconstruction bill giving a ballot to every black soldier, piDportioniuggratitudethus to service. The Radical Senate rejected it, for that was equality. The Chicago platform is a splintered chip which Carl Schurz cannot nail on the grand old Declaration of Independ ence. X, 1'. World. The following method is given for breaking up large masses of cast iron, as, for instance, those of two feet in di ameter. A hole is to be bored into the mass about one inch in diameter and three or four inches deep, which is then filled with water and a wrought iron plug inserted, If now the heavy ham- mef of a pile driver is allowed upon the plug, the water has no chance to escape, and the mass is split asunder. Women who complain that they have nothing to wear should go into theballot business. If their complaints are true they will be all ready to take the first steps. , Many of the Vermont farmers are turning their attention from sheep raising to the dairy.

The following beautiful poem w copy from the Memphis Bulletin. It is rarely we find such con tributions to the columns of a newspaper. It is sweetly, beautifully sad : Raise my pillow, husband, dearest Faint aad fainter comes my breath ; And these shadows stealing slowly, Must, I know, be those of death. Sit down close beside me, darling, Let rne clasp your warm, strong hand, Yours that ever has sustained me, To the borders of thin land. For vour God and mine-onr Father m Thence shall ever lead me on ; Where upon a throne eternal, - Sits His loved and only Son J I've had visions and been dreaming O'er the pant of joy and pain ; Year bv vear I've wandered backward, 'Till I was a child again. Dreaming of girlh(od, and the moment When I stood your wife and bride, How my heart thrilled Love's triumph, In that hour of woman's pride. Dreaming of thee and all the earth chords Firmly twined about my heart Oh ! the bitter, burning anguinh, When I first knew we must part. It has past and God has promised, . All thy footsteps to attend ; , He that's more than friend or brother, He'll be with you to the -ewl. There's no shadow o'er the portala, Leading to my heavenly home Christ has promised life immortal, And 'tis He that bids me come. When life's trials await around thee, And its chilling billows swell ; - Thou'lt thank Heaven that I'm spared them, Thou'lt then feel that " all is well." Pring our boys unto my bedside ; My last blessing 1st them keep Put they're sleeping do not wake them ; They'll learn soon enough to weep. Tell them often of their mother, Kiss them for me when they wake, Lead them gently in life's pathway. Love them doubly for my sake. Clasp my hand still closer, darling, This, the last night of my life ; For to-morrow I shall never Answer, when you call nie " wife." Fare thee well, my noble husband; Faint not "noath the chast'ning rod ; Throw vour strong ami around our children. Keep them close to thee and God. THE Tomb of ce. .1 THRILLING STORY, in tne eany part oi tne present cen tury, I was a poor Lieutenant of the imperial hussars and eighteen years old. We had been stationed in the neighborhood of St. Petersburg for a number of weeks, but were hourly ex pecting to be ordered to the Polish frontier, to meet the great Napoleon, whose grand army was swarming north ward once more. There were a thousand things to per plex my mind. Although utterly faith ful in the service myself, the political record of my family was so unfavorable as to almost preclude the idea of pro- motion, ana mv opportunities were even more disparaged by my well- Known betrothal to tne young princess Catherine, ot the ancient house of Demidoft. She was a Pole, and her family had long been prescribed, as dangerous to the Russian crown. Mv betrothed was of a race, which, cycles before, could, by the right of inheritance, have laid claim to the imperial crowu of Russia, and this fact, well-known as it was to the world and to the family of the Czar, was the cause of their constant and systematic persecution. Only one of that pround race had dared to up lift his head, and proclaim his origin, and his royal descent. He was the grandfather of my betrothed the Prince Ivan Demidoff, and, fifty years before the time of my present writing, he had disappeared had been torn out of his bed by the inexorable secret pc lice, and nothing more heard of him. Whether the frozen steppes of Siberia, the slow starvation of the dungeon, or the sure knife of Imperial Assassin, was his doom, we never knew. But he was long-dead. One-half a century had swept over the head of the lost man, and, long since, he must have paid the debt of mortality, in one place or anoth er. His name could not be forgotten, but the object of imperial vengeance had long been resigned into the sepulchre of the past. Catherine, the Princess (she still re tained the titled relic of the past,) was an orphan. One by one, her relatives had passed away, blighted by the rigor of the imperial frown. Russian that I j was, I loved her with the devotion of ! one who had nothing else to look to in life, and in the azure sincerity of her blue eves, when she told me that she i y loved me, I knew that her soul was in the words. me prospects of both were dreary enough. Princess that she was, she was desperately poor the mere de- pendant, I may .say, of a relative loftier i in the royal favor j and I was homeless, parentless, friendless, with nothing but my soru ana a nooie name, isut we i - clung to each other fondlv. 4 1 At 1 1 , . vuuougn we loveu eacn otuer so absolutely, I dared not visit her pub- licly. Her family record, my position as a Russian officer, in this connection, would have consigned one or both of us to a jealous suspicion, whicli would soon have involved us in ruin. Only the most lucky circumstances would enable us to marry. Our fate was as dark and hopeless as could belong: to unhappy lovers. Ve saw each other but seldom, and our meetings com- on account of your known attach bined a sad sweetness which is not of- ment to me. I have learned this much ten mixed with the goblet of love's passion, but whose bitter ingredients anymore frequently to be found in the lees of life. official duties, I was about to cross the barracks-yard to my dingy lodgings, when Maximilian a faithful serf, who still remained in the service of his no- ble mistress, stole through the guard, and gave me a note from the Princess Catharine, requesting me to visit her that evening in her private apart ments. I nodded my head, and the serf van- ished guessing, perhaps, but not knowing, the joy of my heart, as I hur- ried across the frozen courtyard to my pieious the Government is. My cousin lodgings.

My impatient heart would not per in it me, to await the coming hour, and, sometime before hand, I was at the well-known portico of her protector's palace, preparing to climb the trellis to her dear lattice. In a moment, I stood in the little parlor of the suite of rooms m which she had several times received me before. The Princess was not there. She must be in the boudoir, mlimnimir ftlul,UI For the first time in my life, the idea entered my mind of stealing upon my adored Catharine, and surprising her in the privacy of her toilette. I hesi- tated a moment a sense of mingled honor and modesty detaining me, but my curiosity triumphed, and I opened the listed door of the boudoir, without a sound, and then stood, transfixed with a wild, indefinable feeling of de- lirious joy : for there stood Catharine, almost cm dishabile, dressing her glori- . 11 ' 1 ous nair oeiore tne mirror, ana uucon- scions of my presence. I had thought her beautiful before, but was unprepared for the gloriouly voluptuous spectacle which was here afforded me. With the exception of her trim, tightly-drawn corset, which softly pothered in the snnwv ehemise. froin the dip of the shoulders-to the waist, she had hardly any other gar- ment on. In the uplifted exertion of arranging her hair, her firm, snow- white bosom was mrriallv released from its linen covering, and betrayed all the swelling beauty of the perfect globes. I could perceive the match- less o-rnee nf her snfr. form -an il the shoulders were so perfect in their ala- baster puritv, the slender throat had fiimli a elmnniurr nml tim wiv face so perfect with its misty frame work of wildly scattered, down-drobp- ing masses of bright golden hair1, that I could retain the torrent of my love no longer, but sprang toward her with a cry. iier iace was niiea witn surprise, pleasure, and embarrassment. I en deavored to fold her to my bosom be fore she could conceal those wondrous charms from my view; but she was too quick for me. She darted through a little alcove, the door of which was slammed in my face. When she re- turned, she was closely enveloped in a rich, dark wrapper, though her golden hair still streamed, untranimeled, from her small, beautiful head. There was some anger upon her troubled lips, but my mute appeal of sorrow for what I had done disarmed hp- " Forgive me, Catharine P I mur mured, sinking at her feet.

LEGEK GrEXFEL. It will hc remembered that this gallant Eng Hsh officer effected his escape from the Dry Tortugas some time since, at the risk of his life, in an open boat setting sail from the Florida reefs to the coast of Cuba. Great uneasiness was felt in regard to his fate, and his escape from the perils of the sea was thought to be almost impossible. Wc are glad to learn, however, from the Mobile Regis ter, that a letter has been received from him, dated Havana, announcing his safe arrival there, and sending his thanks and acknowledgments for kind treatment to some of the officers at the Tortugas, and stating that ho was just about to sail for England. This intel ligence will be joyfully received by Colonel Grenfel'smany friends through out the country.

HAYTI NEGRO RULE. This sable Government, so called, is still in a state of civil war. Salnavo, who is called President, but who has been as much as dictators usually arc, continues to fight against the " rebels," as they are styled. It was believed that he would be soon overcome, aa the rebels had gained great advantages over him ; but last acconuts represent him as having recaptured a fort oil the south side of Port au Prince, which was recently taken by the rebels. Nissage, a black General, expects to be. President, and is marching upon Port au Prince, where Saluave will re sist him with, all his strength'. The war has been conducted with a brutality worthy of savages, and Sal nave threatens that if the rebellion is successful he will burn - the capital ! So determined a brute is a fit ruler of the Haytieiis, who, by their own cruel; ties and caprices, have proved them selves to be worthy of no better man. The revolutions and vicissitudes of the late Spanish American provinces are easily accounted for by the fact that Spain was never able to transport to them enough men of European blood to control in governmental matters and general economy save while backed by military authority. The moment that, rough her embarrassments and troubles at home, she Kst those pro viuces the mixed and mongrel popula tions which composed them became the governing classes, and the result has been a constant succession of revo- utious, attended with bloody revenges and assassinations. But when we look to Hayti Ave find no convocations from the mixture of incompatible races. The true African was prevalent omnipotent. He took into his hands a well-ordered Govern ment, a flourishing State, with a grand commerce. The ? negro could never have a better opportunity to show his capabilties. And yet, what has he done in fifty or sixty years with such a country and with, unlimited scope for his own talent ! Why, he has reduced Hayti nearly to barbarism, and the close of sixty years finds that most fer tile of fertile lands a prey to anarchy and bloodshed. This is the fairest example of African adaptability to civilization and civil order that has ever been presented to the world. There can never be a. bet ter or a fairer one. What is the de duction ? That we in the South should be put under negro rule Rich mond JHsjxtteh. Destruction of Southern Ciiur. cnES. A committee of the Protestant Episcopal Convention of South Caroli na closes an extended report of losses by the war as follows: To sum up the losses of the diocese, it appears that ten churcher have been burnt ; that three have disappeared ; that twenty-two parishes have suspend ed ; that two parsonages have been burnt ; that every church between the Savannah river and Charleston has been injured, some stripped even of weather-boarding and flooring ; that almost every minister in that region of the State has lost home and library; that all along the entire seaboard, from North Carolina to Georgia, where our church had flourished for more than a century, there are but four parishes which maintain religious services ; that not one outside the city of Charleston can be called a living, self-sustaining parish, able to support a minister , that their clergy live by fishing, by farming and by mechanical arts; that almost every church, whose history appears on this record has lost its communion plate, often a massive and venerable set, the donation of an English or colonial an cestor. The pecuniary losses might bo repaired if the diocese were as in days gone by; but in its 'present condition no hope remains of a speedy restora tion. This generation can scarcely bo hold it.. The Presbyterian Reunion. Tho New York S'm notes the fact that tho Old School and the New School Pres byterian General Assemblies have both agreed to accept the plan of rcn nion which has been under discussion in those bodies, and to submit it to tho approval of the Presbyteries through out the United States. The editor says: "There is but little doubt that this approval will be almost unanimously given, as the great mass of the denoin ination are in favor of healing the ex isting breach between its two principal divisions. Whether the smaller bod ies, such as the Reformed and the Uni ted Presbyterians, will also consent in the movement is less certain ; but even if they should decline to do so, the con solidation which will be effected will still be of immense importance, and highly gratifying to all lovers of peaco and concord among Christian breth ren.
