NOVEMBER. Address of the Domocratio National Committee to the Conservative Citizens of the United States. Our Ranks Unbroken Our Courage Unabated Unce More to the Breach, and this time Victory I New York, October 20. Fellow-Citizens : It ia a privilcro nd duty to address you on the eve of the great baltlu which we lira to firit, and which is to decide wholhcr the government of this itcpuhlic is to remain fjur year, more in the hunds of the .Radical party, or whether hy an energetic, united, and htxt effort you will wrest the power from iu grasp, and gtve.to us, under a Demo cratic Conservative adminiptrution, a government basod upon principles ol justice, economy, and constitutional iberty. The ibsuoa of the present campaign are plain and self-evident. They ap peal to the intelligence and patriotism of every voter ia the most unmistaka ble terms. They have bean ably dis cussed by distinguished orators and leaden) of our party since the nomina tion of our candidates. What the Democratic party intends to do, if placed in power by your uf fragea, is to restore peace and union to our country ; to heal the wounds and sufferings caused by tho rebellion ; to give to tho peoplo of tho South tho rights to which they are entitled un- er tho Constitution, and by which alone we can bring back prosperity and quiet to that distracted section ; to reduce materially our military and naval establishments, kept up now on an immense scale and at an enormous cost ; to introduce into every depart ment of government the strictest economy, and to develop, by an equi table system of imposts and taxation, the growing resources of our country, and thus to place the Federal finances on a solid and stablo fooling and to pave the way to a gradual and safe return to specie pay meats. We are charged by the Jtudicat party, the party of violence and usurpation, which for the lust four years, to pro long its own existence, has net at naught the Constitution and the fun- amontal principles of our govern ment, thul we intend revolution and efiance of established law. The ac cusation is unfounded and absurd ; it cannot be entertained for a moment by any intelligent voter, who has oven tbe most superficial knowlodge of the istory of his country. The Demo cratic party can proudly point to very page of its record. It has nev er violated a singlo obligation of the fundamental compact by wh.cb these United States entered Into the family of nations. Its watchword, in peace as in war, has been and will always be tho Union, tho Constitution, and the Laws. And no man, or any net ot men, however high they might bo placed by tho suffrages of their fellow citicens, can ever expect to receive the support of this great Conservative party in any revolutionary attempt against established laws. The ballot box and tho supremo will of the American people are the only means of redress to whick we look. Fellow Democrats 1 You are fight ing for a good and righteous cause. You bavo for your leader a tried statesman; a patriot who stood by tho Uuion in its durkest hour; a man equally beloved for the purity of his private character as honored lor his public virtues. Opposed to you are men w ho have subverted the structure of our system of representative sel fgovernmen t, vi n dicated to the world by moro than half a century of prosperity aud groatness; the mon who have in creased our enormous debt by prof ligacy and corruption unparalleled; the men who in two successive Congresses have demonstrated thoir incompetency to diminish our bur dens by economy or apportion them with equity ; the men who have so distributed our burdens that they press with excessive weight upon the labor and industry of tha country, making rich men richer by making poor men pooror. Opposed to you are the men who have denied for three years of peace, and will oontinue to deny until your Votes arrest them, self government to the people of ten States j the men who have taken away the power of our Chief Magistrate to insure a faithful execution of the laws, or to oomninnd tho army and the navy of the United Slates; the men who did their worst to expel tha proaidcnl from tho White Uouse for obeying faithfully the be hts of yonr anpreme law ; tha men 41 NOT MEN. ho bolng conscious of their urimoi', droniled to have the Supremo Court declare their quality, and therefore abridged its jurisdiction, and silenced US voice; tho mon who huvo usurped and are grasping and wioldiug powers not possessed to-duy by any monarch among civilized nations. ' Against these men and ull their dospotio purposos which Gon. Grant would bo as poworloss to hinder as ho whom they elected four years ago has been ; against thoso men, thoir crimes in the past, thoir fust accom plishing designs in the futuro, you are soon to make one final and detormioed lour years ago wo failed to expel them from power, though wo prodio .ted then, as wo now predict, their in- comiotency to give tbe peoplo poaoo ; dccltring then, as Wo now declaro, tho revolutionary purposes of thoir must active leaders, who rule thoir party as they wo'ild rulo the country, with a ditspotic sway. But these four yeure have justified our warning Our worst predictions then are their enacliiieiita now. What we feared they have done. The revolution has made steady progress. Once more we cull every patriot to join our ranks. If the people will now rise in thoir majesty and might,- they can save their iestilutions, and rebuild tbem. If they aro supine and regardless of their sacred interests, so much in the last four years has been accomplished, and so much in the next four years may easily be accomplished, no obsta clo Ihon rcmaiiiinp;, that tho involu tion will become a fixed fact, the structure of our government will havo been completely remodeled. It may bo a government ; still it will no longer be your IteproHoututivo Sclf Govcrnmcnt. For this final struggle then, fellow- Domocrats of the United States, let u, liirigorato every musc!o and nerve every heart. Tho lime is short. Tho foe is stubborn and dusperato, for our victory would be the death-blow to the Republican party. It could have been held together by no other nomi nation. It cannot survive your suc cessful assault.

AUGUST BKLMONT, Chairman. Loss in Rtackino Hat. A farmer of sound judgment and largo experi ence in cutting and storing liny, esti mates tits own loss in stacking at io per cent. He cuts probably one hun dred tons a year, and stacks a tilth part of it for want of barn room. He das very properly made np his mind to build a now barn. We think his estimate is not wide of tho mark. Tliero is a largo loss from moulding at tho bottom of tho stack, and old ruils, hoards, or straw, will not wholly prevent it. Then tho whole external surface for three to six inches, is weath er beaten, and loses much of its sweet ness, and it la not improbable thul this oss hi aroma extends tnrough the hole suck. The conviction is uni versal umonif intelligent men that burn stored hay is worth much more thaa that which is taken from the stuck. Whv then follow this wasteful practice ? Look at tho great loss to this turmer who cuts one hundred tons of hay worth $i,UH0. According to his own cstunato ho pays ?R0 a year for tho privilege, of stacking one-fifth of his crop. This is hut a small part ol the loss where the hay is led out at the alack. It costs at least a third moro hny to keep cattle without shel ter. Theso are strong argument for moro bnrn room. Tn Trmplr op Childhood. The temple of childhood has three gates of entraneei rirst, the heart; socond, imagination ; and third, tho reason. The heart is the first to opon, if you would till that temple with light and joy. Thrniieh tho heart a child may bo impressed and taught long beforo any other cnlrnneo can bo made to its soul. Through the heart tho inspira tion must pass which can awaken tho iiiin J, anil unfold its leave of thought and undorslunding. Next, tho imag ination wukes ; and if we do not pass that gate with light and holiness, and beautify it, wbilo wo adorn the tem plo within, aoino one olso will pass it and defile the templo. Knlighlen, nourish, olaililen the imagination of childhood with truth and beauty from the llihle.and from all noble lift), from history and sUiry.and the main gates will he securo, and tho templo shine with brilliant lights. A Rer that, as childhood advances, open the gate of reason, cultivate the mind through tho heart and imagination, and your teaching and culture will succeed".

Jlus lime of the beautiful mare, often called the Oueen of tho Turf, has never been beaten, ex cept by the noble horse Dexter, and until l'nOft Flora may be enid to have oecn wiinoui a rival. That year Dexter trotted on Long Island, under saddle, in I nun. IS see., the next year at Jiutlalo, in Z nun, 18 sec. In ix7, ho trotted against Klhan Allon assisted by a running mate, the latter winning in three beats, Ktban trotting in 2 m. 15 sec, 2 m. 10 sec, and 2 m. 19 sec, and Dexter unuidod. in 2 m. 17 sec, 2 m. 18 sec , and 2 m. 21 sec. Thus this wonderful horse surpassed his best previous time. Alone, Elliun Allon never approached Flora s time. After this, the same year, Dexter trotted at Boston, in 2m. 10 seo , and subsequently against time at Buf- lulo, winning If 1 ,000 by beating bis lioston time, loo winning of this trot, in which be accomplished the mile in 2 m. 17 sec., was the occa sion of his sale to his present owner, Mr. Kobcrt Bonner. It is worthy also ot notice that the Buffalo track was 27 feet over a mile long. The sporting public witnessod tbe retire ment of this home, whose unpreceden ted power and spoed gave such prom ise of a brilliant career, with great regret. In Mr. Bonner's bands bo has had the best of care, and though horsemen were prepared to hear of grnul speed when bis powers should ugaiu be testud.yet the announcement ol his having trotted a milo in 2 m. 14 sec., laxea tho credulity of almost every one. However, the fact is es tablished by good evidence, and his sanguine trainer promises evon boiler rosults before long. This trial of speed was mado to gratify two well known turfmen who happened to be present whilo he was trotted by bis trainer. A running horse was made to join him during the astonishing performance, to excito his ambition, and to Induce him to do his best. Dexter is a gelding, and was foaled in Orange county, N. Y. in 1850; his dum is half sister to Mr. Bonner's famous gray mare, IVerloss, and has in ber veins some ot the choicest Eng lish blood. His siro was Byadyk s Hambletoninn, in whom flows tho fa mous Messenger blood. His color is brown, and bis height 15 hands li inches, He was first trotted at seven years old, a fact which has great sig nificance., and which we doubt not will tend to keep colts and fillies of tender years off the '.ruck, and check at least one marked barbarity of the race course America a Agriculturist. What thr Hkabt Is. Somebody says, 1 ho heart is like a pM4il in the tropica, which all tho yea round is boaring flowers, and ripening seeds, and lulling them fly. It is shaking off memories and dropping associa tions. The joys of last year are ripe seeds that will come up in joy again text year, i hub me oearvis planting seeds in every nook and comer; and a wind which serves to prostrate a plant is only a sower coming forth to sow its seeds, planting some of them in rocky crcvlccs.somo by river courses, some among mossy stones, somo by warm hedges.and some in garden, and open field ; so it is with our experi ences of life that away and bow os either with oy or sorrow. They plant everything round about us with beart soeds. Thus a house becomes sacred. Evory room bath a memory, and a thousand of them ; evory door and window is clustered with associa tions. A Prater with Variations. A very little boy, alter giving everybody a good night kiss, kneeled ut his moth er's knee to sny his ovening prayer. His mother had that day been teach ing him tbe pioco commencing, "You'd scarce ox poet ono of my ego, ' Ac, and it appears that those versos were run ning through his head. He com menced the prayer as follows : "Now I lay me down to sloop, I pray the Lord my soul to take ; if 1 should chance to fall below Demosthenes or Cicero, don't vio'f me with a cricket's eye " "Stop, stop," said his mother, "that isn't n part of tho prnyer." "Yes It Is," the little follow replied, "yes it is, ma'ma, don't viow mo with a i rit'ket'a eye." llmr por Finding a Husband. More common sense and loss wit. Moro useful occupation and less music.

In that day all American citizens, or neaily ul!, were true mon, and were earnest in the desire that the govern ment of tho United Stutes might prove a porfect success for popular freedom. outashumun judgment, like ull things mundane, is fallible, there were thunu in the day of Jefferson who contended fora lutitudinnrian construeiiun of the terms of the organic compact by which the States were fonnod into a Federal Union They did not forsee the evils that might arise from their theory ; but, thank Ueuven, Thomas Jefferson did. It was no want of patriotism on the part of bis opponents, but it was tlieirerrorot juagiliiiiik.mui n,v rv . conscious of ii wrong in departing irom tne strict letter ot the Constitu tion. Happy, then, as it for us, for the government, and for the cause of iberty, that, as if with the inspiration of patriotic aeer, Thomas Jefferson perceived the necessity of the Demo cratic party, and of establishing a test by which the lines of demurkation might be decisively drawn between is members and those of other par ties. Jefferson baa been oalled the ather of tbe Democratic nartv. Ha deserves the title, proud though it is. and more honorable by fur than any t zar or Kaiser has ever attained. Ilia was the distinguished merit of giving distinct form and outline to the true republican theory; and, in short, he it was who, more than all others, con tributed to the perpetuity of free in stitutions. Kince the time to which we refer tho Democratic party has existed, and it is to-day, in principle, precisely what it was in the beginning. Tbe Consti tution tortus its basis, and a strict con struction of that instrument the esson- ial characteristic of its creed. There are multitudes of men now in full affili ation with the party and thoroughly uaorsing us teneis, who have only como of lato years to appreciate tho beauty and correctness or its princi ples. In the days of the country's peaceful prosperity, when the great ' parties into which the nation was divided vied with each other in tbe ffort to advance the happiness of tho peoplo and the welfare of tbe nation, it was natural enough that all good and true men should not be found n I is ted under the Democratic banner i but now, when fanaticism and the lost of power have brought the country to such a pass that the destruction of constitutional government is n fore gone conclusion unless strict Demo cratic principle be adhered to, the case s altogether dincrent. Iherelorewe behold veteran Whigs, who in the past warred opon Democratic organization. now yielding to none in their seul for Democracy. They eee that if te Democrat 10 theory bad been adhered to the unhappy war which but lately filled tbe land with desolation and woe could never have occurred. They un derstand now that if a strict construc tion and a close observance of the Con. stitulion had prevailed, no way could have Docn loll open lor the insutuoue attacks of the fuel of our old govern- mental system, ihey comprehend clearly enough now, in short, thai the Itadical traitor and demagogues txiuld never, under suoh circumstances, have brought about tbo trials aod sufferings of the lust seven years, the evils uf the present, and the still greater perils thul menace a in the luture. ihua seeing, understanding, and believing, nono are more ready than they to ad mit that the Democratic puny waa always right, and the theory tormina; ihe basis of its principles the only sale one -the ones upon the enforcement of which depend free institution and tbe preservation of constitutional lib erty. Nothing can be more certain than that JJenry I lay, Daniel Web ster, and other renowned and patriotio eadcrs oi the w lug party that might be mentioned, if they had lived in these evil days, would have been Dem ocrats. The great mistake of these great statesmen was that they attach ed too littlo importance to that strict ness ol constitutional observance which Democrats insisted upon as a guiding prinoiplo. W e have said that the penod of tha exiatenco of the Democratio party, taken in oonnoction with its present vigor, (ills tho mind with respect and admiration. Wbilo other parties, like tho tiny sprites of tho l'crsian legion, have danced in the light of the sun for a day , and then closed their ephemeral existence forever, Democracy has held iu atately march through nearly all the years of our national existence and soems only dostinod to die when tho republic shall cease to exist. It camo in with Jefferson ; it grew and flourished wilh Jackson ; it waa pow erful in tho time of Van Buren, Polk, l'iorce and Buchanan j and now, more formidable iu iu strength than ever, it stands upon tho threshold of Sey mour's administration. For a season, indeed, in these later years, the giant was shorn of Its tUm.gth, and then the nation became sick onto death for the lifo of freedom is bound up in the strength of Democracy. But, thank God, the power of securing tho nation's salvation is once more in the hands of Democracy. As we wish for tho continuance of the government of uie miners, as we nope lor the perpe tuity of constitutional froedom. us we desire that the nation shall fulfill the glorious destiny designed for it, let na - ray mat me ieinocrauo parly, as it ns lived through tbe botior nart of our national existence, may survive lorcvor.
