REIN HOT LINES ON AN OLD SCHOOL HOUSE
BY HENRY l». T.EI.AN’P.
I've visited the Sehotd-honse, Jim,
Where we in childhood s.h.
And nest- one recollection came
hnyjey—rft thtft !
The windows all had fallen in.
The wind, oh! floored the door.
The chimney wfts blown ever, Jim;
I stayed tn see no more.
Those school boy days! O, twaddle!
I count the dinners lft«t;
The bitter tears—the agonies
That Latin grammar cost.
I «op that stern old teacher.
With ruler in his hand !
The only love he ever knew—-
A love to reprimand.
-LETTER OF THE HON D t. DICRINW TO THE
DEMOCRATIC ASSOCIATION OF THE CITY OF
WASHINGTON.
Washington- City, Feb. 185$.
gentlemen : I am honored with your kind
note of this morning, desiring me t » name an <
♦•vetting when I can meet my Democratic
friends of the District, and others sojourning
here, and give expression to my op nions upon
the great public questions of the day. 1 feel
ingly appreciate the generous ami confiding
spirit which suggested a compliment so grati
fying and distinguished, and regret to add that
while it would afford me the highest *.iti*l’?ic ,
tion to comply with your reqne-t. the pro
fessional engagement which brought me here
ha* put been closed, and other calls of a kin- (
<!red character at home compel me to leave the
city.
Our country, blessed by a beneficent Provi
dence with all the elements calculated to ren
der a people prosperous ami happy, seems des
tined to be convulsed by internal strile, and
disfigured by domestic discord.
Os all the agitations which lijiv* di tnrbed
<»ur repose a* a people, and arrayed one sec
tion against another. I have regarded an I still
regard, the Kansas question a* the iiio-t artifi
cial an 1 cnusel •*<. originating in a great degree
in bad intentions and worse actions.
F<»r all pre' - it p irp •*-•* | shall not consider
the vr mmat.oiis and recriminations which
h.iy* prevailed, nor the allegations of fraud,
violvflt c and treason which bit • sigmdi'••d its
imhanpv history, but remark that the < v I* o?
which its people roß'pla’u. origiiuitv in their
own bosorn. a.i 1 that. as a p • »;de th y have
genera’.!;, held, an I now hold, a full and a. :p.u
r • iic ly in their own hind- mH* hat t:io-v who
r f is • to exerr'e one of the dearest privileges
ail highest duties of freemen—that of the
elective franchise—may indulge m »rl»i I grief,
or cherish p irtizan spleen, but should never be
espcci d objects of sympathy. The people of
this I’nioii have interests, both foreign a:: 1
domestic, too mighty and diversifie I to bestow
heir time and energies, ami sympathy, in con
aidcriiig the details of local constitutions or
the fairness of territorial elections over which
they call have no legitimate iiiiiueiire or con
trol. Had I Leena member of the Lvrompt »n
Con lent ion. I would have urged the snbmtss
siott of the Constitution as a whole, and in all
its parts, to the people f»r approval or rejec
tion. But lam iinahD to perceive upon what
possible s uind theory of non-intervention eitln-r
rhe President or Congress ran go behind iiCon- ,
stitution republican in form, ami determine
whether a people who uiight have voted tor
delegates did s • v »te. or whether t!ic delegates
in <v*4Jvvouion. in negleetitig to submit the de
tails of the r<Mi*li<trt ion to the propio, obeyed
or disregarded the popular will: w hether the
constitution wa* wi*e or unwise, slave or free.
All these are questions belonging exclusively,
to rhe people oi Kansas nt all times under their
complete control, ami in which the federal gov
ernment cannot intervene without disturbing
the foundations upon which the popular feder
ative edifice rest*. If Congress may reject a
constitution because its detail* were not sub
mitted to the people of the Territory, it may,
in like manner, manifest its disapprobation be
cause they were. If it may tirtervewc to com
pel a submission to the people, it may inter- .
vene to prevent submission ; if it may reject a
constitution for the sole cause that it authorizes
slavery, it may reject it because it does not ;
and popular sovereignty becomes but another
name for federal despotism.
The democratic party, through many periods
of vicissitude and trial, has proved itself to be
tlie guardian of the constitution and th * Union,
the preserver oft he public |>eare, ami the foe
of sectional strife ami disunion, under whatso
ever pretence presented. Its chart is the con
stitution. its policy progress in the cause of
true freedom and human regeneration. The
country looks to it again in this crisis to put
forth its conservative power, to rescue the last
best hope ot man from the evils w hich menace,
it. The administration of its choice, firm in
its purpose, and guided by wisdom and modera
tion, is devoting its best energies to procure
the admission of Kansas into the I nion, and
thus leave the elements which disturb a na
tion’s repose, and arrest its progress to the
correction of those with w hom they originate.
It is gratifying to perceive that the democracy
throughout the Union, with great unanimity,
are rallying to the support of the administra
tion upon this great principle, ami sustaining
its policy. This Kansas question is the aliment
of those who live and move and have their
being in sectional strife; and they will feed
upon it. and urge it npon others so long as
it can be made available for partisan pur
poses; and when it can be no longer used
to stimulate taction or “adorn a tale,” it will
*be discarded as worthless, and all the clamor
for freedom ami the rights of the people of
Kansas will vanish into the air.
No one, familiar with the course of events,
can doubt the design or the consequences of
a prolonged existence of this controversy, nor
the importance to the best interests of the
country and its institutions that it be brought
to a speedy conclusion by receiving Kansas at
once into the Union. That done? the ques
tion no longer remains a disturbing element
beyond the confinesot the State. Thus limit
ed, with the inherent and ronceedv 1 right of
the people to change the constitution at will,
it becomes a question of local and restricted
interest, ami of course of restricted agitation.
Beyond that limit, while some have been miss
ed by artificial clamor, the first object of those
politicians who started this i x «u<. ;l ad seek to
prolong its discussion, is the overthrow of the
democratic party and tl»c administration of its
choice—a party which is identified with the
great interests of the country, ami which at
all periods of its history has interposed the
shield ot sound opinioh alill patriotic action
against the combinations of politicitl enemies
and the enconragcr* ot sectionalism.
Let every true democrat, in and ont ofCon
gress, retlect upon the conse<|uences, if at this
t ime ami under such circumstances that party <
and its administration shall be broken down,
and all the disturbing at the late
Presidential conte-t ’he again set ‘in imltion-:
am! let him ask himself if he can be made aux- ,
iliary to such tin object ami to such consvquen
•res.
so the citiken* of this Dn»triet. ever loyal to
the Union and its constitutional Mtjfegtiards. 1
am happy to renew the expressions of my at
tachment un<l respect, and to acknow ledge the
gratitieatioii it afibnls me to feel that I still ' .
Irve in their Kkay’-t'O'Meiswv** in
tluencc ever prevent it from being tlm great
central bond of I nion of the States of our gio- '
Hotis republic.
1 have the honor to be, with high regard, !

Is J.auei: Peer Lx roxh ating ?—This ques
tion wa* recently before a jury in Brooklyn.
N. Y. A crowd of w itnesses were brought
forward to prove that it w.is not. Dr. Arming .
testified that he saw a German drink Dhi pint
ghissc* <*f l,ager within three or sow hours
without getting drunk. James \\ Lite testified
to drinking 32 glasses within two hours ami

The Qveens of Ei itort:. —An American la
dy. who wa* at Stuttgardt during the last
meeting <>f the Emp< r<»rs. thus w' ites of her

Europe. I'lase ladies w ere dressed in white
mo !\*antiquc silk; a stripe ot whit<\ five or!
*ix inches wide, and a stripe of the same width
covered with the richest flowers here; and
then, in the w bite stripe, there was an immense

Letter A and Let Hen Bi:. —We have
made a discovery. The w onder is, in this age
of new *paper paragraphs, it was never made
before, but wa* reserved for the Gatesliead
Observer of 1M57. Byron had a “passion for
the name of Mary,” and our gracious Queen
has a passion for a letter A, Here is the
proof: Alexa.idriana Victoria, Queen ; Albert.
Prince Consort; Adelaide, Princess Royal;
Albert, Prince of Wales; Alice, second daugh
ter ; Alfred, second *<»n ; Augusta, third daugh
ter ; Alvrtik fourth daughter; Arthur, third
son; Albert, fourth son ; Beatrice, fifth daugh

Letter Ais played out; and now let her be.
Personae. —Mr. Buchanan’s Cabinet is com
posed of “men ot weight.” Howell Cobb is
set dew n at 217 1-2 pounds. Gov. Brown at
177, Secretary Toiicey at ififi. Secretary I’homp
son at 147, and Gov. Floyd at 129. Gen. Cass
will weigh nearly 2(H) pounds, although he is
, not so fleshy as he was a few years since. He
is very active for one ot his age. ami walks to
the Department ot State almost every morning,
without an overcoat and with an elastic step.
Sih-nky Girls. —In Bangor Me., recently,
several persons were lined tor an assault upon
a school master. It seenisthat four of the large
hoys endeavored to carry into effect a plan they 1
had been concocting for some time to put the
ma*ter out by seizing him about the neck and
choking him, while two of them held the door
open. Three of the girls, aged from Hi to 19,
two of whom had taught school, then came
to the rescue, ami by main strength ami by the
use of a billet of wood, which they used to
good purpose on the rufliaas, laid them out
straight on the floor ami caused them to give
in beat. The struggle lasted some time.
Alabama Lec-islati re.—Parson Brownlow,
writing from Montgomery says:
“The Legislature of Alabama is composed of
P too many' inendaTs —100 Representatives and
• 83 Senators. Fifty members in the House,
• and twenty-five in the Senate, would do more
i business, and do it better.’’
What would the Parson exclaim were he to
peep upon the Georgia Legislature, as it will
t l»e 12(5 Senator'! and 163 Representatives!-—-
Would not his involuntary exclamation be, it
f i* a wonder that any businessatall is ever done?
