LOVER.
A PRIZE* POEM,
WRITTEN IN HIFALUTIN fTTYLE, IN TWENTY-FIVE
MINUTES, SIXTEEN SECONDS AND A HALF.
Kind reader, your ears a few moments,
And though they may appear rather long,
(I moan not your ears, but the moments,)
I beg you will still list to my song—
And I’ll tell a wonderful story "
Of a “ gay and festive" lover of eld,
And perhaps the most beautiful maid
That ever any mortal beheld.
But hero lot mo pause to remlhd you
That it Is a most horrible tale I .
’Twill make your hair point to tho zonlth,
And turn your cheek ashy and pale.
And ere I have finished this story ...
Your eye-balls from their sockets will leap,
The blood In your veins grow cold and stop, '
And the flesh on your hones will creep.
So If you haven’t the melt of the tigress,
Or the lion’s unsc arable heart,
You’d better be ready to skedaddle,
And take to your heels at the start.
GLOVES,
Well, since you’ve determined to stand it,
Do not saddle the blameupon mo
If ghosts andjiobgobUns should haunt you,
For I’ve warned you just how 11 may bo.
Now, as 1 was about to relate,
The “ fellow” was in love with the maid.
Ami ’twos no wonder that at iieh feet
His most ardent “distresses” he jmid.
Her form was a piece of perfection,
Her cheeks were lovelier than the rose,
Her lips were far Sweater than, honey,
And she w*oro the most elegant clothes.
H. 8. RITTER.
Her hair was as black ns old'Satan,
And worn without ringlets or crirls;
Her eyes were a shade or two darker,
Ami her teeth much whiter than pearls.

The lover kelt him down before her,
And breathed aloud full many n vow, ■
But the iriafd, whose name was—(oh, hang It I
i really can’t uuuii. oi it now) —-
But suffice to say, for Hie present,' *
That in tones not resembling a luto’s
She gave him ft negative answer . , '
That quite “ lifted him .out of his boots
“ Bedone with your silly palaver, >
Let your tea-kettle tempest be calmed,
For bqfQre I’d consent to wed you ,
I would see you eternally— confounded !”
VESTS
At'this tho lover grow most wrathy,
And, like many a one at later date,
“ Made a fool of himself,” in a manner
Which. I need not take time to relate;
I must say, however, that for nearly
An liour ho did nothing bnt rave— I
Then he ran ’way down to the river,
And throw himself Into the wave.
But when tho water fill'd his nose and cars
Ho bethought him of much heavier ills
Than simply his lady-love wouldn’t let him
Settle her board and milliner’s bills.
’So ho summon’d his strength to take him
1 Where tlie water less rapidly ran,* ‘
And slowly the.bank he ascended,

Eleven Million?* for Xegro Pauper?*.
The bogus affair that calls itself a Cou
.gress has just voted eleven millions for
‘the “Nigger Bureau,” to establish schools
!and support nigger paupers intheSouth!
Just think —the negroes of the South pro
duced some three hundred, millions of
isurplus or real, .wealth, nearly' all of
;which was finally secured to the people
of the North, who built their Fifth ave
jnue places and voluptuous churches on
Ithis result of “slavery/’; and In ,1860
There was not one single pauper among
all these,four millions of negroes. Now
this labor and all this mighty production
of wealth is abolished, for the time being
as absolutely so as, if the negro, himself
‘was stricken out of existence, and the
northern laboring classes are loaded down
with a debt of three thousand millions to
accomplish the stupendous crime. Count
ing in the negresses of the South, who
produced, as much, cotton as the males,
perhaps; the producing forces of the two
sections were about equal, therefore it
comes to this, not only is the labor of the
p.egro lost to the whole, country, but eve
ry laboring man in the North must here
after give a very considerable portion of
each day’s toil to destroy the former.—
The emigrant, the:lrlshman, the farmer,
the mechanic, every man who adds to
the production of the country, must first
give up a’portion of each day’s toil topay
the interest on the debt contracted to
abolish” the 1 labor of the, negro in the
South, and what is left he may spend on
his wjfe mid children. If his children
have not quite enough to fill their bellies
or tb'cover their nakedhesss, why he can
only reply ;to; them Be; patient, for
though you suffer for food ,and clothing,
and I am giving my sweat and very life
blood, and will doubtless die in thealnis
house, it is in the. glorious cause of
emancipating, negrpos .from labor. .But
since this unapproachable crime of aboli
tion, the negroes are not ohly lost to pro
duction, but Northern laborers aro to be
taxed, eleven millions more, to. support
negro paupers. Well, why, hot? Since
their hand is in, why not complete the
job? 'Why not, Indeed, bring the ne
groes North and save theexpenseofsend
ing agents in the remote South to look
after them ? Why not, indeed, give eve
ry negro a white'laborer to work for him
hereafter ? It would simplify the matter
mightly, and be the same thing ln fact. —

THE LATEST INFAMY.
We take the following' despatch from
the columns of the New York Tribune of
a recent date:
The Constitutional Amendment — JProposi-
lion for Immediate Stale Action.
. „ rniLADELPniA, Thursday, June 14,1800.
After the Senate adopted the Constitutional
iV««P dn i^ n h J«st concurred in by the House of
G°vorii or Curtin addressed a
circular letter to the Governors of ail the loval
States, suggesting tho propriety of Union. Inac
w,ln " l[llll e together their legislatures for tho
ratification 01 that amendment. It is now un
tlerstood that such uniform notion will bo 'had
“•mfhnt before the adjonrntnont of Congress a
ratincallon of tho amendment will bo made.
We had more than once heard a hint
that a scheme, of the kind here boldly
avowed, was in contemplation and had
long been a matter of secret discussion in
the councils of the radicals. But we did
not believe it. It seemed incredible.—
There was nothing in Governor Curtin’s
recent political course on which to ground
a suspicion that ho would lend himself to
such a shameless work, but, on the con
trary, there were many things to justify
an assured conviction that he would spurn
any connection with it. But it seems
that we were mistaken. We honored
him overmuch. He has not merely giv
en his assent to this base scheme for fore
stalling the judgment of the people upon
a question of vital interest to them and
their posterity, but has taken the initia
tive in it, and appears before the public
as Its author. Let us consider what it is
he proposes to do.
It will be remembered that the Legis
lature of Pennsylvania, which he propo
ses to convene in special session, was not
chosen by the people Hi anticipation that
any such amendments to the Constitu
tion as those which have recently passed
Congress would be submitted to it. We
venture to assert that not a single candi
date for a: seat in that body dared to avow
himself, pending the election, an advo
cate of negro suffrage. We know posi
tively that every Republican who was
chosen did his best to convince his con
stituents, when he solicited their suffra
ges, that no such purpose ns that of en
franchising the blacks was in contem
plation by his party. There cannot be a
doubt that had the people understood
that tills question was an immediate and
DTJUltinal l uf 1 1. \ui\n I ,i cnnVii iip .lnp
settlement by their representatives before
another election and that by choosing a
Republican Legislature they would give
their assent to the establishment of ne
gro equality within their own borders
and throughout the laud, they would have
cast such an overwhelming Denioeratic
vote as would have left their opinions in
no doubt. But they were deceived, and
the party which got control of the Legis
lature got it. on a false pretense. Their
hypocrisy was all along manifest to us,
but we did not suspect them of a design
so outrageous as that which Governor
Curtin’s circular foreshadows.
It is now proposed to takeaway from
the people the opportunity to say “yea”
; or “ nay” to questions of nearer concern
: to their rights and interests than any that
have ever been presented to them since
the Constitution was formed. Their judg
ment is to be anticipated. A partizau
, Legislature is to bo called together, in
special session, to hurry through a work
. which dare not be trusted to their succes
, sors, who will be elected with open eyes
and a full knowledge on the part of their
, constituents of the interests which will
i depend upon the choice they make. The
! Washington Chronicle declared last wiu
, ter that if the Republicans should go be
fore; the people of Pennsylvania upon the
issue of negro suffrage they would be
: beaten. hopelessly and everywhere. In
ithis declaration lies the secret of Govor
; nor Curtin’s haste. It is hoped by giv
iing a speedy ratification to the amend
iments not only to assure their adoption,
■but to take the questions which they iu
jvolve, and whicli the radicals dare not
meet in the campaign, out of the arena of
i discussion,
; ' No grosser violation of the spirit of the
Constitution than this was everconcei ved,
.even by the, party which have distin
guished themselves by their contempt
dor it. The provision which req'uires
.amendments to be submitted to the Leg
islatures of‘the respective States is, of
icourse, designed to secure an expression
of the sense of the people of each Slate,
■speaking through their representatives.—
;But, here, the Legislature is summoned
to Harrisburg'to decide a question of vi
tal importance upon which the people of
Pennsylvania have not passed, and have
had no opportunity to pass, judgment.—
This is a fraud—a gross and palpable
.fraud—one which must rouse the indig
nation of every honest breast. We hope
that it will' be exposed and denounced us
jit should be by the whole Conservative
press of the. Commonwealth. It is the
latest and; basest of those multiplied out
rages upon law, justice, and decency, by
which the Republican party has hitherto
managed to maintain its power. We
protest against it, not merely because of
its intrinsic wickedness, but because of
the strife it promises to engender —the
ptormy future which itforbodes for this
country. Because wo would not see rev
olution, we protest with all the might
that is in use against an outrage which it
would almost seem is intended to pro
voke it. — Age.
Tlic Decline of Radicalism.
One by one the Radical members of
Congress are being repudiated by the
nominating conventions of their party.
Rice, of Maine, has been dropped; Mor
rill, of Vermont, has refused to allow his
name to go before the people for renom-
Ination ; Grinnell and Kasson have been
defeated,and Hill has beenshelvedalong
with his Radical associates. In our State
the indications are that Radicalism will
soon be at a ruinous discount. Stevens
inay hold Lancaster, butin otherdisUicts
the contest will be fierce and determined
against the present Radical members.—
Kelly and O’Neal, and Myers, and Thay
er, will have to face cbnstituenciesout
raged by the manner in which they have
subordinated the real interests, of the
country' to negro equality and partisan
aspirations. The business of Philadel
phia has been terrible disturbed and shat
tered by, the war and events growing out
of the same. . Our commercial rivals are.
talcing advantage of circumstances to
press us still further in the wrong direc
tion, :and our Radical representatives
have, by , thebe votes, aided in keeping
trade and commerce from our city. They
have followed the mad and heady current
of Radical malice, and opposed all meas
ures: calculated to reunite the sections,,
and allow Philadelphia to occupy her old
place among the business marts of the
nation. The votes of the men named
have stood in the way of all ellorts to
benefit the trade of this city. They have
proclaimed by, their option that Philadel
phia is against holding any intercourse
With the people of the Southern States,
and theso men wonder why all the trade
of that section is.not poured into.the laps
of our merchants. TJiey are learning
now what it costs to uphold and support
the Radical party, and if the present
Radical members be-re-elected they will
receive another lesson. Philadelphia
should bo represented ,bynational men,
and.if the merchants and men of business,
study their own welfare and that of'‘the
cltyv -ihey will choose at the-’ com 1»g

The White Man’s Elberty Vindicated.
The Supreme Court Decides that no Man
can be■ Deprived of Citizenship, as a
“ Deserter,” until he shall have . been
Tried and Convicted of Desertion 1
The Supreme Court of .this State in ses
sion at Wilkesbarro, lately affirmed'the
decision of his Honor, Judge King, of
this Judicial District, in the case of Huber
vs. Rankin, the issue being' whether a
Judge of Election can refuse to receive
the votes of citizens “ marked” as “ de
serters.” It will bo remembered that
Judge King decided that Judges of Elec
tion are bound to receive the votes of such
persons, on the ground that they (the
latter] had never been tried and convic
ted of desertion before the proper tribu
nal, and that no citizen could be depriv
ed of life, liberty or property, except by
duo course of law, upon d trial, before a
jury of his peers.' The Bimreme Court,
in affirming this decision of Judge King,
have but given us another proof that an
upright judiciary is the surest safe-guard
ot tlie constitutional rights of the people.
Malignant legislatures may trample their
own constituents under their feet; parti
san Gdvernors may attempt to rob the
people of the dearest fights the law has
left to man; but, the Judiciary, siting far
above the reach of the beggarly influen
ces which move politicians and dema
gogues, comes to the rescue and delivers
the people from the grasp of those who
would oppress them. In the name of
liberty, let us thank the pure and fear
less judges who dared to proclaim the
rights of the people as against their
would be oppressors. This is no party
victory. It Is the triumph of the great
principle which underlies onr whole po
litical fabric. It is the reassertion of the.
great doctrine that under our Republican
form of Government, no citizen can' be
deprived of his constitutional rights,
without duo process 6f law and atrial by
a jury of his peers. It matters not which
party gains by it. The principle is what
we contend for and the success of the
principle is what we exult over. We
helped to fight the battle for the sake of
the rights of “ Republicans” as well as
Democrats., There are, perhaps, neariya
hundred voters in tnlk
nAuuty, -who "would have' been - disfran
chised, had the demagogues’ who lead the
so-called “Republican” party succeeded
in their infernal purpose. They would
have been no better than negroes, to-day.
If the men who control their party had
had their own way. But the right Has
triumphed and white men are still white
men, in spite of the Negro Congress, our
malignant Legislature and—Gov. Curtin.

THE FBEEDMEJf’S BUREAU.
In the army appropriation bill, which
•ecently passed the Senate, there la ■an
tem of seven millions of dollars for the
further support of the Freedmen’s Bu
reau. That Implies a continuance of the
said Bureau for some time, and perhaps
still more money will be required for . its
maintainance.
It seems to us, that the time has' come
for getting rid of this useless, expensive'
and in many respects hurtful concern'.—
Promall the facta that we canegather
; with regard to its operation, we are forced
'to the conclusion that it does more barm
' than good, and that the freedmen, as a
I class, would be far better off if it were
i abolished. Its tendency is to keep alive
the feeling of enmity that has existed
i between the planter and their lateslaves,
land to impress the negro with the belief
I that they ought to have better wagesthan
employers can afford to pay them.' There
iis abundant evidence to prove, also,'that
, many of the Bureau agents have: shame
fully violated the trust reposed in, them,
by using their offices for personal emolu
ment. But aside from all these consider
ation, it seems to us that it' is not' right
; nor just for the people at large to.be long
er taxed for the support of the freedmen.
‘More than a' year has passed jsince the
termination of the war, and the presump
tion is, that every negro who is abound
hot too lazy, can make a living ,by his
own industry.. There 1s no doubt, about
the matter, for there is much complaint
in the South about the scarcity of litbor,
and the freedmen generally receive good
■wages. So far as the' indigentnegroes
are concerned, it is the duty, of the ,8 tit a
in which they live, arid not the general
Government to support them. The tax
payers of the North are,Obliged to support
the paupers of their several States, both
white and black, and'they oughtnottobe
Obliged to support Southern paupers., It'
is said that the Southern people would
ill-use the negroes if the Bureau were
withdrawn. This is a weak hypothesis.
The people of the South are controlled by
feelf Interest, just as the people of the
North are; and have seen enough to know :
that maiiciouslll-treatmentof the negroes,
would lead to a derangement of labor,
to conflict of races, and to negro insurrec
tions. Possibly there would be individu
al instances of cruelty to negroes.’ We
have such cases here at the North—in
bur own State. If the Bureau ,1s a ne
cessity now, what reason is there to be
lieve that it will not be a necessity one,
fl ye, or ten. years from now ? . And must
the Government continue to appropriate
millions for its support? , No: let it be
abolished, and the sooner the better.
UNDER WHICH BANNER?
| In the Athenian commonwealth the
citizen who took no sides was deemed
indifferent to the public good, and was
branded for his infamous neutrality. The'
chizens of the American Republic are
about engaging to a peaceful contest to
which the same.rule is applicable. It is
certainly a duty.which every one owes to
liimself and to the country, to now define
liis position, for the peril ofthe times will
not admit of any shuffling or chicane. —
The banners of the .opposing hosts, are
how advanced; to the whole nation it is
known what they respectively fight for;
each appeals for support: “with whom,
then, hnd for whom, shall I battle?” is
