Till. V10AU OF 1IKAY,
In gooil King Charles' golden days,
When loyalty no harm meant,
A r.ealous hlgh-clmrchmnti was I,
And so I got preferment ;
To tcadi my flock I novcr missed,
Kings are by God appointed,
And damti'd are those who do ri slst,
Or touch tho Lord's nnolntcd.
And this Is lnw I will maintain
Until my dying liny, sir,
That whatsoever king shall reign,
I'll be tho Vicar of Bray, sir.
Whon royal James obtained tho crown,
And Popery enmo lu fashion,
Then penal laws I hooted dowu,
And rend tho declaration i
Tho Church of Homo I lonnd wonld fit
Full well my constitution ;
And had become a Jesuit
But for tho ltovolntlou.
And this Is law I will maintain, Ac.
When William was our king declined,
To soo tho nation's arlcvanco,
With this nowwlnd about I steeled
And sworq to him nlleglauco ;
Old principles I did revoke,
Set conscience at n distance ;
Passivo obedlenco was n Joke,
A Jest was nou-rcslstnuce.
And this Is law I will mnlntnln, Ac.
When gracious Ann became our (iueen
Tho Church of England's glory,
Another face of things was been,
And 1 hocumo n tory ;
Occasional conformists base,
I damn'd their moderation.
And thought tlio Church lu danger was
lly such a provocation.
And this Isluw I will mnlntnln, Ac.
When Georgo in pudding llnio came o'er,
And moderate men looked big, sir,
I turn'd n caMu-pan once more,
And then bccanio n whig, sir.
And thus preferment I procur'd
From our new faith's defender!
And nlmoit every day abjured
Tkc Popi and the Pretender.
Ami this Is law 1 will maintain, AO.
Tho Illustrious House of Hanocr,
And Protestant succession
To tlieso I do olUglanco swear
While they can keep possession ;
For In my faith nnd loyally
I novcr more will f ilter,

J. A W. O, M'KIllUIN, Proprietor,
May in iw-ly,
ONE cvcnlntr four German students
ut tlio university wcro enjoyins them
selves iu on upper room of a little hotel.
Thcv hntl four Instruments nntl were
einployinp; themselves in makinp; mu
sie, after tho haril labors of tho day.
Thero was n pauso in their music; but
no sooner had they ceased playlnp;,tlinii
they heard an old mnn playing a violin
beneath their window, in tho street.
They went to their window and looked
out, watching him until lio ceased play
inc. One of them threw out a liitle
pieco of money, and said to him laugh
ingly:
"Here, poor Peter, that is nil wo have
for you now; como again some other
time."
"Yes," said another, "como again in a
year from now."
Then wo will give you a little house
for a prcscnt," said tlio third.
"Yes, in tho middle of it garden,"
said the fourth.
Tho old man was struck with wonder
nt such it promise. His long while
linlr shono brightly in tho light of tho
lanterns which hung out at tho neigh
boring restaurant. Ho looked up to
tho window, nnd said, after a moment's
reflection :
"Young people, aro you in earnest
what you say to me ? I hope you are
not making light of an old man."
"Indeed, wo aro in earnest," replied
Ernest, with oxcited voico: nnd his
tlireo companions called upon God to
witness their seriousness.
"Farewell, then," replied tlio old
mini. "I take inv leavo of you. Ono
year from to-day, at this sumo hour, e.v
pect mo to como and play a tuno be
neath this window, l'arewcll, may the
Almighty Ono whoso naino you have
called upon, bless you in your kind
ness."
Tlio old man went oil', after invoking
lliis blessing upon thorn. Tho studenls
closed tlio window, took their instru
ments again in their hands, nntl, .after
having played three or four lively tunes
.seemed to forget all that had occurred,
Ernest f-aid to them, however, after the
spacoof about halfaii hour, "You seem
to bo very ciuieti I cannot be, fur I havo
nuulo a promise that I would give some
thing which I linvo not got."
"What promiso?" asked one of his
liglit-hearli'd companions.
"Tlio promise of u houso and garden."
A loud laugh was thorespoiii-otlmtho
met with; nnd tho students soparated.
They met again on tho following even
ing, nnd, during thu interview, Ernest
called to mind tho promise of tho
night before. They madollghtoriilm,
and told hi nt that ho was foolish to pay
any nioro attention to it. Then, said
lie, "I don't see where your consciences
are, if you can mko n promise nnd
break your word."
"How can you ftilllll any promise of
Unit kindV" said Christopher. "Our
parents nro nil poor, and havo moro
than they cuii do to send us to tlio uni
versity. How then can they holp us to
buy u houso nnd garden for a foolish
old man? Good night, comrades, I
wish you as pleasant a sleep as I shall
have."
Hut this kind of argument did not
affect KrnoU much, lor he could not
help thinking that ho was compelled to
keep his bargain. Ho wtw tho poorest
ono of tlio group, for his mother was
plain widow, nnd she made her living
by washing. Tho promUo that ho had
mado deeply affected him, mid hu left
the university fur it week, so that ho
might go homo und tell hU mother tho
pledgo Unit lie had made to tlio old mu
sician. After ho had told her, sho re
plied : "Keep it my boh ; keop it, if it
costs your II fo I"
"That Is hat I will try to do, moth,
or; und I hopo I shall havo your
prnyers."
Ernest roturned to the university, und
told Ills fiiwids that they mint think so
rlously of buying the old man n houso
nud garden. He went to u neighboring
vlliagu ouo day, uud found that ho could
get it n cut llttlo homo mid garden for
two thousand guldens. That wn9 a
largo sum for thoso poor students to
think of paying; but through thoinflu
enco of Ernest, tlio other thrco gradual
ly becamo convinced that it wns their
duty to keep their promise. Tlio foui
vesol ved that In ono ycnr from tho tlmo
tho pledgo was mado tho old mnn should
havo hid house and garden, If it was In
their-power to got It for lilm.
Thoy mint leavo the-university asad
proceeding for them. Thoy camo to tho
conclusion to go through tho country
nnd give llttlo concerts; for really this
appeared to them to bo tho only way
possiblo' to gain ntiy money. i.ven by
pursuing thi3 course, thero appeared to
bo u poor prospect of- gottlng a large
sum. fcjtlll liiey resoiveu to uo inoir
best. They closed their books, put their
instruments in their llttlo bugs, and bet
out on foot, to glvo concerts lu tho vil
lages through which thoy might pass;
Ernest, before, lenving, exacted a. prom
ise of the mini who owned tho house
nud lot which ho looked at, that he
would not sell It under six mouths to
any one; and, that it no wouiti promiso
to tnke it at tlio end of that tlmo lie
might have It, though the money need
not by paid under n year, week nfter
week passed by, and tho students slow
ly proceeded on their way. Their ox
peiiseSjWcro jiot heavy, but their in
como wits certainly very small. Nino
months nnd n half passed by nnd .still
they had but iiliio hundred guldens. It
wns a great oueitlon with them how
the remaining thirteen hundred could
bo raised. They were spending one day
at n country town," und u nobleman liv
ing iu n largo eastlo ti few miles distant,
nas' seeking musicians to'ntteiul the
wedding of his daughter, who was to
bo married lu three or four days. For
innately enough for tho students, tlio
nobleman employed them for the occv
slon. The marriage ceremonies took
place, and by-and-by It wns tlmo for
the music to begin. The students had
trained themselves very carefully for
that evening and their selections wcro
of it very high order. During the
course of tho festivities, It was noticed
that the nobleman becamo very iad.
Ills face wore n melancholy appearance
and Ums-oAvho stootl nearest to him saw
ill in weeping. What could have caused
him to be melancholy at such a time as
Hint ? One of tho pieces that thoo mu
sicians" had played was his mother's fa
vorite melody. She lrid often sung it
to hint, many years ago, and he had
not heard it since, until tho students
ployed it. It was enough to' make him
sorrowful, and it drew thoso students
to his heart In such n way that lie could
not express his feelings. Thoy had re
called' til his memory n pieco of'music
which ho hod never been able to find In
any music store, and which it wns now
worth it forttino for him to hear.
I mint now ninko my story short.
Tho nobleman kept the four students in
ills castlu two weeks, bcc.imo acquaint
ed with them fully, and learned their
object In leaving tlio university to give
concerts. Ho supplied them with three
thousand guidons and told them Unit
ho would pay their expensesat tho uni
versity for four yours, and that they
might havo tho privilege of making
drafts on him nt any time.
Their fortune wns better than they
had any reason to expect. Ernest hud
ulready written to tho owner of the
houso nntl garden "that ho might expect
them to take it, su Unit it was now en-gaged.
The students returned to tho univer
sity, and reached thero )usl before the
end of the year, when tho homo must
bo ready for the owner. On tho even
ing of tho day when tho old man prom
ised to appear, ho stood below tho win
dow iu the bright winter moonlight,
playing on his old violin. Ho was true
to lii-j word, and expected tho promise
to bo kept, Tho young men went down
to invito him up, and told him all thoy
hud d one. They show ed him the deed
for his place, anil gave it to him. On
tho following day he formally took pos
session of it, and they supplied It with
furniture and groceries for Iiousektcp-
l'Diirteeii years uner thai time, (lie
place enme into their possession; fur
tho old man had died uud bcMUcnlhcd
it to tlieni in Ids will. That part of the
town rose suddenly in value. Many
things contributed to its increased val
ue, which 1 will not now enumerate.
It Is enough to say that seventeen
year from tho time that our btudeuts
guvo tho deed of that houso and garden
to tho old musician, tho 111110. property
which had cost two thousand guldens
was worth eighty thousand. Tho stu
dents, liiroforc, were not merely re
paid lu heart but nlso lu money. They
hnd kept their word ; and tlio memory
of being faithful to the word even to tlio
poor old man whohatl no power to com
pel them to bo true to it, was a pleasant
memory as long us they lived.
Offensive Dueath. Offensive

A sick limn, slightly convalescing.
recently In conversation with a pious
friend, who congratulated him upon Ills
rocovery, and asked hlui who his phy
slchm was, replied: -'Dr. Jones brough
mo through." "No, no," said Ills
friend, "God brought you out of your
illnes-i, not tho doctor." "Well, mnyb
he did, but I am certain thu doctor will
elm r go mo for It."
Itciisous lor Vote.
Tun following aro tlio reasons of Mr.
Jackson, for Ins voto on tho resolution
ratifying tho fifteenth nmendment to
tlio Constitution of tho United States:
Tlio action oftlio majority of thoSCn-
ttto In calling the provlous question on
tho passage of Scnato bill No. 745, en
titled Joint resolution to ratify tho
amendment to tho Constitution of the
United States, provented mo from glv-
ng my reasons for my voto in op
position to tho adoption of tho salt! so
called Fifteenth nmendment to tho Con.
stlttltion of tlio United States, as fol
lows :
"Abticlk 15. -Tho rlghtof citizens bf
tlio United States to voto shall not
bo denied or abridged by tlio. United
States, or by any State, on account
of race, color or previous condition of
servitude.
"Section 2. Congress shall have pow
er to enforco this nrticlo by appropriate
legislation."
This action of the majority Is In full
accord with their well known cowardice
and deceit. With deceit as tho corner
stoiia of tho party, it could scarce bo e.v.
pectcd that when tlio party whip was
cracked over their heads, und King Can
cus decided that this iniquity should bo
accomplished, nnd tlio people of the old
Keystone State deprived of ono of their
most sacred rights, that they should
hesitate to put on tho gag, call tlio tro
vlous question, nnd rush It through tho
Senate without that full and frcediscus-
slon which so great a measure should
have, received nt tho hands of the Senuto
of Pennsylvania ; nnd so iur as tho tm
tlon of tho Senate is concerned, tlio out
rage is accomplished of taking from
tho pcoplo tho Bucrcd right of deciding
for themselves who should and who
should not bo entitled to tho rights of
suffrage lu Pennsylvania. In vain we
asked of tho Republican Senators to
give tho peoplo nn opportunity of be
ing heard through tho ballot-box upon
tills great question. Wo offered nnd
urged thendoption of tho following reso
lutions: Whekeas, Tho Congres3 of the
United States has proposed nn nmend
ment to tho Constitution thereof, to be
known ns nrticlo fifteen, which changes
the ruloof suffrage now existing in this
Coinmonwcalth,and substitutes therefor
nnother and a different rule, which said
nmendment Is now submitted to the
legislatures of the several States for rati
fication;
Ami Whereas, "All power is inherent
in tlio people,"- und it Is right that they
should havo an opportunity to voto for
or ngninst tho ratification of the said
amendment, nnd to dctermlno whether
they will or will not chdngo the rule of
suffrage now existing : therefore,
Iccsoh-cil, That tho Judiciary Com
mitteo of tlio. Senate.bo nnd nro hereby
instructed to prepare nnd forthwith re
port to the Sennto a bill for tho submis
sion of tho ratification of thosaid amend
mcnl to the people nt tho election in Oc
tober, 18G0.
Jlesolvcd, That thoScnnto will not net
upon tho question of ratification of the
said amendment to tlio Constitution of
tho United Stntes at its present session,
but will nwitit tho action of the people
nt tlio polls thereon.
They woro voted down by n strict
party vote.overy Democratic Senutoi vo
ting for, nud every Republican Senator
against them.
When tho resolutions pledging the
Scnato to leave this matter to a voto of
the pcoplo at tho next October elections
were voted tlown,wo again urged delay,
and asked that :
ll'ienas, Tho subject contained in tlio
mid amendment is one in which the
peoplo of this Commonwealth are deep
ly interested, nnd upon which thuy
have tho undoubted right to be heard,
and the right of petition, address and
remonstrance being guaranteed to them
by the declaration of rights of the Con
titutlon, it Is Just and proper that time
should bo given them to petition or re
monstrate against the ratification of the
said amendment; therefore,
Hciotutl, That the aetiou on the
foresaid amendment to the Coustitu
tiou of tlio United .States, to bo known
as nrticlo fifteenth, bo und N hereby post
loned until Tuesday, the i'!d day of
-March, ISO'.), in order to allow tho pee
do to bo heard by netition. address nud
remonstrance 011 the siii.jcet nforesaid,
nd that the bill to ratify said amend
meut bo made tho special urtler for that
uuy.
Hut no, they would not agree to that,
Thero were whispers that thero might
ho some weak-kneed brethren uiuoiigst
them, and they wcro afraid that
when tho mighty voice of tho peo
ple wu heard resounding from tho hills
ami valleys of our glorious old Com
111011 wealth, thero might bo some Sena
tnrs with some conscience, and a llttlo
respei t for tho pcpplo still lingering
about tliem,aud that they might Dy tho
track, and In spite of thu party whips,
might still further delay thu con.su in
iiintlun of tho outrage, until tlio peo
plo were heard from through the ballot-
box.
Aro tlieynfrald tosubmit ittothu peo
plo V Certainly thoy nro. Tho party
leaders havo deceived them upon this
question timo nnd again. They havo
alwnys denied being in favor of negro
suffrago nntl negro equality, During
the last election campaigns, they fol
lowed out strictly their doctrines of
deceit nud fraud by adopting In the Nn
tionnl Republican Convention held nt
Chicago, as n part of thu platform of
their party, tlio following 1
"II. Tho guaranty by Congress of
Hiitl suffrago to 1 loyal men at the
South waa.dcnianded by every coiisld
cratiim of publlcsafvty.of grutitiido.u'id
of Justice, and must bo maintained;
while tho question of suffrago lu all thu
loyal States properly belongs to tho pod
p'.o of those States,"
Wu charged through tho Democratic
papers and from tlio stump that they
were again at their old trieks of doccly
ing ami betraying the peoplo, nud that
If they woro fcucco;sful ut the polls they
would furco negro euirraio und negro
equality upon us. Thoy denied this,
nnd placing their hands upon their
hearts tlioyoverywliero called upon God
to witness their sincerity In divlarlng
Hint they would sustain their Chicago
platform, and would lenvo tlio question
of euifrugo in all tho Northern Stntes
under tlio control of tho pcoplo, They
aro continued in power, und now feel
ing securo In that power for tlio next
four ycar3,thoy at onco proceed to inflict
this iniquitous lucasuro upon nn out
raged people.
They expect by so doing in Pennsyl
vania to add to their voting population
somo 15,000 votes. They may accom
plish It they may lotaln their power,
especially if they can still by fraud and
deceit retain those in their ranks whom
thoy havo so often deceived before un
der tlio plea that tho preservation of the
Union nnd not negro suffrago und negro
equality was thucorncr-stoiiool tho Re
publican parly. .1
Rut tho right of suffrage In Pennsyl
vania Is n right reserved by tho Stato,
and the General Government can linvo
no control over tho subject whntovor.
Section two of nrticlo nine of tho Con
stitution of Pennsylvania provides :
"That ull power is inherent in the
pcoplo, and ull freo government uie
founded on their authority;" and 6ce
tlon twenty-jix of the same nrticlo Is us
iohows: "To guard against tronsgres
slons of tho high power wo havo delega
ted, wo dectaro that everything In this
artlelols excepted out of tho general
powers of tho Government, nnd shall
forever remain inviolate."
Tho framers of our Slnto Constitution
wcro sojenlons of tho rights of tho peo
ple, and so fearful that their- sacred
rights might bo infrliiged, Unit they
provided In nrtlcle.ten that all amend-
mcnta must bu agreed to by two succes
slvo Legislatures, and then submitted
to a voto of the peoplo, and ratified by
them boforo becoming n part of the or
ganic law; and yet the Republican
members of tho Pennsylvania Scnnte,
disregarding tho provisions of the Con
stitution of tlicir own State, nntl their
obligations ns Senntors,nssumo tlio right
of refusing tho people tho privilege of
voting upon tills proposition which tow
cm infinitely above any proposition to
change the Constitutinn of tlio State of
Pennsylvanlajoroven tho rigid toremon
stmto against this Iniquity, und claim
for themselves the right In three short
hours' lime, und under tho action oftlio
previous question, to' gag this Senate
und attempt to forco negrosuffrogo upon
our unwilling people.
If tlio right of suffrago In Pennsylva
nia must bo extended, why not first
give it to our mothers, our wives, our
daughters tlio white women of the
Stale'.' Aro they not equally ns meritori
ous, ps intllligent as tho lllitcrato negro?
What havo thoy- dono that tho black
man shall bo placed not only on an,
equality with them, but elevated above
them '.'
Where nro our young men between
tho- ages of eighteen nnd twenty-one
years, who filled tho ranks of ournrmv,
nnd bravely rallied round nnd defended
thoflagofourcountry,nnd won forthem-
selves Immortal fame battling for the
preservation of tho Union? Aro they
not as intelligent nnd as worthy of the
elcctivo franchise ns tho negro?
Why will you piaco tho ballot in tlio
black man's hand,nnd havo these youn
men stand to ono sldo 111 tho election
day whilst the negro marches to tho
polls and votes ? Shamo upon a party
that would attorning to eommltsticli an

Senators aro assumed powers that tho
framers of tlio Constitution of Peniipyl
vnnia never dreamed of giving to the
Legislature. Standing in their places
in this Sennto chamber, they aro at
tempting to roh tlio peoplo of one of
their dearest rights. They will bo ans
wered in tones of thunder by nn indig-
nnat nnd outraged peoplo in tho next
elections.
Tho pcoplo will take this matter Into
tlicir own hands, and will elect as Gov.
ernornnd members cf tho Legislature
men who bcllevo in tho rights of the
people, and who will undo the wrong
tills Legislature has committed ; nnd
they will elect membersof tho Supreme
Court who will declare this amendment
null nnd void, and of no binding effect
upon the peoplo of Pennsylvania.

The i'litsT Shot. A London paper
relates tho following under the appar
ent impression of it being n fact ! "Tho
xsortiieners carry their revolvers at
their backs in tlio centre or their waist

ceived this pieco of nlvico from an
American : "Waal, stranger, if you git

Tho Englishman thanked .his friend,
and was always dodging about with his
revolver, first In ono pocket, then in
