GLOBE :—At the request of come of my friends, I send the poem enclosed for re-pub lication, It has been going the rounds of the papers for ,years without any signature. I wrote) it for the Cincinnati Commercial, six years ago, over my initials which became de tached in some way. C. W. L. SIX LITTLE FEET ON THE FENDER. In my heart there lived' a picture, Of a kitchen rude and old, Whore the fire light tripped o'er the rafters, And reddened the more brown mould; Gilding the steam from the kettle That bummed on the foot-worn hearth, Throughout all the live long evening, Its measure of drowsy mirth. Because:of the three slightshadows, That frescoed that rude old room— Because of the voices echoed Up 'mid the rafter's gloom— Because of the feet on the fender,' • Six, restless white little feet— The thoughts of that dear old kitchen Aro to me so fresh and sweet. When the first dash on the window Told of the coming rain, 01 where are the fair young faces That crowded against the pane? While hits of fire light stealing • Their dimpted cheeks between, Went struggling out in the darkness In shreds of silver sheen. Two of the feet grew weary, One dreary, dismal day, And we tied them with snow-white ribbons, Leaving him there by the way. Thole was fresh clay on the tender, • That weary, wintry night, For the four little feet had tracked it, From his grave on the brown hill's height. Ohl why on this darken - 10 evening This evening of rain and sleet Rest my feet all alone on the hearthstone? 01 where are those other foot? Are they trending the pathway of virtue That will load us together above?' Or have they made steps that will dump° A sister's tireless love ? Mrs. CORNIE W. LAWS. The Danger of Seymour's Insanity. Alluding to the attempt of the New York World to explain away the re ports of insanity in the Seymour fam ily, the Cincinnati Gazette narrates and 'vouches fur these facts:— 1. Gov. Seymour's father, Henry Seymour, shortly alter the exposure of some of his malpractices as canal com missioner of Now York, became sub jected to fits of mental aberration, in one of which he committed suicide by blowing his brains out. 2. Gov. Seymour's brother fell a vic tim to the same terrible malady, and likewise died a maniac suicide. 3. Gov. Seymour himself has been constantly warned by his family and physicians to avoid harrassing mental cares and great excitement, as almost inevitably tending to develop the . same taint in his own blood. Once, after some heavy pecuniary losses, they took the precaution to remove him from political excitement in New York to the see'usions of Minnesota, and kept him there in retiracy for sev• oral months, in accordance with the suggestion of bis physicians. His mind was believed then, by both the physicians and the family, to be trem bling on the balance. 4. Gov. Seymour has himself refer red, as ditinetly as could be expected, to the imminent peril in which, as be well knows, ho is standing. To Mr. Harvey, a member of the Massachu setts delegation to the New York Con vention, he said significantly that his health (which the World takes care to Pronounce perfect) was such that it would be most perilous for him to ac cept the nomination. If his physical health were perfect, what could it be 1 that rondo it perilous for him but the danger of excitement at which his medical advisers were constantly point ing, with the admonition, "That way lies death." To the New York delega tion ho said, in one of his speeches at 1 their caucuses, that they well knew that it would be dangerous for him to enter upon such a life of trained un certainty and anxiety as the •canvass would open up. To the convention it elf ho said : "I cannot become your candidate without imperiling both the party and myself." These are facts of public notoriety. No New Yorker, during the convention,' pretended to deny Gov. Seymour's danger from in sanity. Many of those in the delega tion frankly admitted it to be an insu perable bar to their presenting Lim as a candidate. It, was as freely talked about and as currently recognized among the better informed delegates, as the existence of Pendleton's green back theory, or Blair's letter. He re• ceivod the nomination, as is known, in an agony of conflicting emotions, and his first exclamation was "My God, what shall I do r To elect the democratic candidate is to stimulate fresh rebellion at the South, and to place at the head of public affairs a man whom such ex eitement must, in his own fear, in the belief of his family and' of his physi• clans, send to the lunatic asylum. It is to plunge the nation into new whirl. pools, and give it a crazy pilot. Or rather, to look straight to the inevita• ble end, it is to make Gen. Frank Blair President of the United States. This is not a matter to be salved over by pleas for the sanctity of family affairs. It is not a matter to bo whistled down by stilted talk about the decencies of political discussion. The decency con sists in forcing such a peril upon the country, not in giving the country timely warning of it. Shall Frank Blair ho President instead of General Grant 7 This is the practical question. "The young lady who was roe ommended to take oxerciso to improve her health, says that sho "will jump at an offer and ruu hot own risk." Gems from Democratic Speeches. Wo call the attention of our readers to the following choice selections from the speeches of various prominent De mocrats, including Seymour and Blair. Straws show which way the wind blows. SEYMOUR PREFERRED CONFED. ATE CONSTITUTION. - Horatio Seymour, after the adop Lion of the Confederate Constitution, said to Judge Charles H. Ruggles"lt is :— be:tter than ours, (the Federal.) Then why not obviate all diffieulty,by simply adopting that (Confederate) Constitution ?" A REBEL SOLDIER THREATENS AISTOTIIER WAR "We can have no relief unless the Democratic party will pledge itself that we shall have a fair election ; that the white people of the South shall vote. I want to register an oath that when they do vote their votes shall be counted, and if there is, a- majority of white votes (leaving out black of course) that you will place Seymour and Blair in the White House in Apite of all the bayonets that shall be brought against them.- 7 Wade Hampton.

We have not been informed whether Mr. Nesmith has espoused the cause for Seymour, but H . ho has, these strong words of his will be a strange mirror in which . to study his sincerity I appreciate the services of General Grant ; I am anxious for the passage of the bill, and I am anxious that Gen.

WHO MADE IT-AND HOW Wade Hampton was welcomed,. on his return to Charleston, at an immense Democratic meeting to ratify the no minations and platform of Blair and Seymour. From a full report of his own speech, evidently prepared with great care, we extract the annexed passage, to which we invite the thought ful attention of patriotic Northern De mocrats. He remarks: I yield to none in devotion to tluit "Lost Cause" for which we fought. Never shall I admit that the cause itself tidied, and that the principles which gave it life were therefore wrong. Never shall I brand the men who up held it so nobly as "rebels" or "traitors." Ho then proceeds : As it was my good fortune to be on the Committee which framed this instrument, it may be interesting to you, perhaps, to learn the details by which it was perfected, and the views of those who made it.— As you are aware, the Committee on Resolutions consisted of one member from each State. On assembling it was found that a very great difference of opinion existed. Among other re solutions offered were some declaring that the right of suffrage belonged to the States; and this was announced to be good Democratic doctrine, I agreed to the propositions, but at the same time said that it seemed to mo they had omitted one very vital point, which was to declare to what States the doctrine applied. I thought it very necessary to guard ,and limit that declaration, and to the end that we might know at What time we could go back and say who were the citizens of the States, I asked that they would declare that these questions belonged to the States under their Constitutions up to the year 1865: Gentlemen were there from North, South, Bast and West, and by all we were met with extreme cordiality. They said they were willing to give us everything we desired; but wo of the South must re member that they had a great fight to make, and it would not be policy to place upon the platform that which would engender prejudice at the North They, however, pledged themselves to do all in their power to relieve the Southern States, and restore to us the Constitution as it had existed. As we were met in such a kindly spirit, I could not but reciprocate. I knew I was representing the feelings . , of my people when I did so, and I told them 1 would withdraw all the resolutions I had offered, and no doubt other Southern delegations would do the same, and would accept the resolu lotions offered by Hon. Mr. Bayard, the Senator from Delaware, which declared that the right of suffrage be longed to the States. I said I would take the resolutions if they would al low me to add three words, which you will find embodied in the platform. I added this: "And we declare that the Reconstruction Acts are revolutionary,un constilutiond and void." (Immense cheering.) When I proposed that, every single member of the Committee and the warmest men in it were the men of the North—came forward and said they would carry it out to the end. Having thus pledged themselves, I feel assured that when the Demo etude party come to triumph they will show us a remedy for our misfortunes in their own good time, for which I am perfectly willing to wait. Such is the history of our platform, and such were the motives which governed the Committee in its formation. As the representative of South Carolina on that Committee, I present that plat form to you in the earnest hope that it will meet your cordial approval. As to my own share of the work perform ed in the Committee, I can assure my fellow-citizens that the only objects for which I labored were to make it a strong and honest platform, one that would secure the rights of the South, and protect the honor of my State. It is for you to say how these objects have been fulfilled. Now, genlkeinen, the platform em bodying the principles of the Demo cratic party has been given to the country. Upon that platform we have placed our candidates, for the Presi dency and Vice Presidency, Horatio Seymour and Frank P. Blair. GOOD ADVICE.—Never shirk your duties, however low and mean they may seem to you Remember that you do as well as ever you can what happens to be the only thing within your power to do, is the best and sur est preparation for higher servico.— Should things go against you, never give way to debilitating depression; but be hopeful, bravo, courageous,care fa, not to waste in vain and unavail ing regret the power you will need for endurance and endeavor. Learn well your business, whatever it may be; make the best of every opportunity for acquiring any sort of knowledge that may enlarge your acquaintance with business in general, and enable you to take advantage of any offer or open ing that, may come. Above all things, remember that character is essential to success in life; and that character is the best, which is real and thorough, true and genuine to the' core—which has nothing underlying it of the con sciousness of secret sin ; which is as pure and unspotted as it is thought to be, and the moral and manly virtues of which are based upon and inspired by a religious faith—by that love and fear of God which at 014:0 _preserve from ”great transgressions," and prompt to the cultivation of every personal and social virtue.—From sev enteen to thirty.

In the Democratic State Convention which nominated Boyle and Ent, it was pre-arranged that no soldier should bo placed on the Democratic State ticket. After Boyle was nomi nated for Auditor General, it was evi dent to the soldiers who had been hoodwinked to attend that Conran, tion that the purpose was to over. slaugh them. At this juncture Gene ral Sweitzer,_ of Allegheny county, warned the Democracy that if they deserted the soldier the braves would certainly not support that party. In. timidated by this declaration, the De mocraCy reconsidered their arrange ments to repudiate the soldier, and nominated General Ent for Surveyor General But General Sweitzer watt not deceived by this reluctant recog nition of the soldier.. It seems that ho has been closely watching the 'course of the Democratic leaders, and, having fully considered the platform on which Seymour stands, he is convinced that the election of that man, pledged tq the principles of the Democratic par, ty, will plunge the country into 'grit), tiler war. General Sweitzer tatingly declares that wo have reached a point; where - an election for Preid dent means peace or war, and singular as it may appear, the party which cried against war when it was neces sary to save the Government aro now clamoring for armed conflict when ;it is sure to destroy it. In view of these facts, this bold soldier makes no heal, tation to avow his determination t 9 vote against Seymour because he eon, eiders it necessary in doing so to se cure peace for the country. We doubt if any political campaign ever exhibj ' ced a grander spectacle than that pre- rented in the attitude of this bold and truthful soldier. He has carefully considered the situation. Ho has put into one side of the scales his Democ, racy and in the other his country, and finds that the latter is worth the most and therefore does not hesitate to re* flounce the former. Ile has tested, ip the most thorough manner, the hones ty of the leaders of the Democratic party and finds that they are not"trne to the peace of the country, and there, fore ho at once repudiates them to es pouso the cause of Republican oandit dates whom he knows to be faithful in all things relating to national peace, honor and prosperity. After General Sweitzer's declaration in favor of Gent oral Grant, no soldier with the self-re spect of a man can vote for Horatio Seymour—Harrisburg State Guard.
