ED. GLOBE :—At the request of come of my
friends, I send the poem enclosed for re-pub

papers for ,years without any signature. I
wrote) it for the Cincinnati Commercial, six
years ago, over my initials which became de

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 ?

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,

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

The Democratic Platform.
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

A Democratic General Ropudiatea
.
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.

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
