JUaniiH -\v Gt -jwr ILLEDGE 'V' ILLE TUESDAY. DECEMBER 19,1871. Mature A Oocd Suggestion, wh'ch Deserves Cfihsiderstion. It lias been announced, by telegraph, ftat Hon. Daniel W. Voorhces, the ster ling Democratic Representative of the Terre Haute District of Indiana, in the present- Congress of the United States, has appeared in a card or an address to the public on “.The Situation j” in which Le ’uges the following language : Keenly appreciate tlie importance .of mi authoritative expression ot princi ples,-which are to guide us in the future ' as in thd past. It should be made at an early date, in order that organization shall be peifectcd and confidence re stored by the time the approaching cam paign is upou us. I his, however, should .he the work of a National Convention, •mbiacing delegates from all the States. I am in favor of calling such a conven tion at some central point in the West, on a day not later than the '."e l day of | * ijebruary nexj. The call should be is- } sued by the National Executive Com- 'mittee, and dclcgates should Le appom- j tedTy'St-ife and District Conventions. ! _ Tlie 'business of this body should he to ! carefully, and patiently weigh all viW j laid boforo it. io agree and publish a c ear and definite declaration of piinci plea upon ali matters aftccliug the polit- tbus he presented in opposition to usur pat ion, centralism and ultimate Imperial ism, would command the respect and check the unbridled excuses of those who seek to uptool the very corner stone of American liberty—who are now tramp ling in tlie dust the Constitution of oui fathers, though sworn to support it, and treating sovereign States as mere tribu tary provinces. If we enter the contest with divisions in our ranks, defeat is certain, while our common enemies—en emies to our country, enemies to repub lican constitutional liberty, taking cour age from our division, emboldened by their easy victory, and pretending the endorsement by the country, of their previous usurp tions, will lay aside the mask and openly avow their determina tion to revolutionize ihe Government and establish an Empire. This is no time for squabbling over minor issues when the citadel is in the hands of the enemy. Ali true patiiots must make common cause against the usurper. The great issue which overshadows all oth- others in the present crisis may be brief ly expressed in Constitutionalism versus Imperialism. Though there may be dif ferences of opinion in tlie Democratic party as to minor issues aud matters of policy, all agree upon the paramount and absolute necessity of defeating Radi calism and preventing Imperialism. Let the National Democracy unite on this brotd platform and save the Constitution. Wc think the plan suggested by Mr. Voorhces the one most likely to 8ecuve the uuion of the Naiional Democracy. Though as individuals wo may be quam mari conjunct!. N. ’til a late hour. On entering the house he called for his desk, and immediately wrote ihe following sublime and pathet ic lines”: Thou lingering star with lessening ray, Tiiat lov-gt to greet the early morn : Again thou usher’st in the day, My Mary from my soul was torn. O’.i, Mary ! dear departed shade, * Where is thy place of blissful rest ! See’st thou thy lover, lowly laid ? Hear’st thou the groans that rend his breast’ That sacred hour can l forget, Can I forget the hallow'd grove, Where, by the Ayr we met, To live one day of parting love. 00 1-2 50 Eternity will ne'er efface Those records dear of transports past: Tby image at our ’ast embrace: Ah ! little thought we ’twas oar last.

All that is necessary, therefore, for a bril- lianf Democratic victory in the approach- v ing civic struggle between Constitution- . alism and Despotism, is for some pro gramme of action, to be first agreed up on, on which, the full democratic vote .can be united. Such programme of ac- ■ tioir, we believe, can bo agreed upon. * Let this be dope ; and then let a con- T^ntion of delegates from all tlie States be called, to nominate candidates upon "‘it;*’and‘ such' a civic victory will be 'achieved by the Democracy in the next • Ere§idenlial election, as has not been witnessed in this country since the great triumph of Jefferson over the Central ists in 1801!

II. t Stephens iu the Atlanta Sun,. • • i Tfe think this at once the wisest, most practical and most rational suggestion .that has been made in conuectiou with the . next Presidential campaigu, and worthy the careful consideration of eve ry true Democrat in the land. United, tual lady ! h"< ay lrom nomc, near a^oeautiful Sabbath in May, and ou the meadow bank of this crystal stream, she read and pondered the words of inspiration that pointed her to anoth er liver over which she must soou pass and to the happy country beyond. When weary with reading and meditating, she was wont to look up at the bright cano py above, and trace with her eye the ouio rioeey clouUs tbat glided smoothly along beueath the cerulean sky; some times she would watdi with great ipur est the little silver fishes that sported in the limpid waves that s^mly flowed and waved along, humming the music of na ture. S»'cet Mary was pure in heart, gifted and good natured. She was hap py—how could she be otherwise? AVhile thus engaged, the great Poet made his appearance and immediately joined her company. Her mind was now directed to a new (?) subject entire ly; for, Burns with pale face and pah pitating heart, whispered in her. ear the soft accents of welcome courtship ; her lovely face was instantly suffused with a modest blush, but her tongue, true to nature, gave a favorable response ! Burns was happy, and I guess she was too! It was truly an affair of love, uot policy. “Their mutual faith was plighted, first by laving their hands iu the pure stream, and then crossing them upon Mary’s Bi b!e!” This may appear a strange cere mony, hut remember, that one was a po et and the other poetical. This world is full of shadows and lights; sometimes our sky is bright, then again it is over cast with dark clouds, and life is rather a burden than otherwise. This May Sab bath was one of the brightest days of Burns aud Mary—they parted perfectly happy! Alary, before their marriage, conclud ed to visit her friends in Argyleshire, expecting as soon as she returned, that their nuptials would be celebrated and the golden knot tied for life. But alas ! for human hopes and prospects—she never came back. On her return she sickened and died at Grenock, When they parted ou the beautiful bank of Ayr, with hearts full of love aud hope, little did they then think that they would never see each other again in tbh world. “Burns retained through life the most devoted remembrance of this early at tachment.” Sweet Alary was ever in his mind ; he thought of her by day aud dreamed of her by night—this is what l call love ! In the lapse of time, Burns courted again and married. Ilis wife, after she became a widow, made the fol lowing statement, which will thrill every heart with emotion, that is not made of iron : ‘'Alany years alter our marriage, and ou the anniversary of the death of‘High land Mary,’ after working hard all day in the field, though out of breath, he wandered into the barn-yard, where he FROM CUBA.
