They kept on with their w ork, and as the gloom increased they observed thul ho would pause once in a while, and look inlently all around the horizon nnd overhead, but mudo no rematk until lie directed the oldest boy lo go to the barn and tnrn the horse and all the ratllo that were inside, out into an open tot, and to close and secure every door and win dow. It apitenred that he was appre hensive thul some sudden and furious gust or squall would soon manifest itself, and thought that the animals would bo in less danger out in the fluid than inside of iho building. Slill the darkness grew thicker and deeper, till presently he said tlicy might as well tpiit work for the present. On reaching tbe honse the molher and sisters were about their usual duties nulo and silent, and litllo was suid except an occasional remark or direc tion, in a low tono. 20 ono seemed inclined loconversalion or demonstru. tion of any kind. Boon dinner wns ready and candles lighted the same as at night, but not a morsel was eaten. A dead silence seemed to pervade all nature, broken only by the occasional bleating of a lutitb or Iho distant low ing of the kino, w hicli wandered nhotit restless and uneasy. The domestic fow ls seemed to be inclined to Mine lo the conclusion that il was now night, they could put no other con struction upon it, so, slier clucking over the mailer for a while, ihey went to roost. And thus the long and dreary hours passed away. Along in the afternoon the veil was lilted in some degree, and at the time of (un set it was about tha same as in an ordinary dull nnd cloudy nay. The night lollow cd, dark as was the dny. It was tho perfect "bltickness of darkness," not the faintest outline of any object could be discerned against the sky. A light would peno trule it but a little way, and Ihen seemed to discloso hut a solid wall of blackness around. Many persons w ho were out became bewildered and lost fur tho time. It wusan anxious night of watching in ninny a household, but tho daw n at length broke bright and beautiful, and never was the face of the broad bright sun more joyfully grcoled. My mother, then a child ol nine years, had a perfect recollect ion of many of the incidents of that mem orable day, particularly that of the sudden appearance in their niuist oi two veiieiiiblo maiden sisters, Susan and Mary Stevens, belter known ns Aunt Susio and Sister Jloliie, who lived by themselves in the "old house" near by. Solitary and alone Ihey hail endured the perils of the hour, until they could bear it no longer, when they "cut and run," seemingly im pressed with Ibe idea that if safety, comfort and consolation conld any where bo found amid Ibe impending "wreck ol mnttorand crush ol worlds," it must bo in tho presence nnd tinder the roof ol their kind friend nnd good neighbor Tractor, and his family.

The attention of tbe thinking men of tho Kudical party ia invited to tho following editorial from the New York Sun ot hu turd ay. Tho .S'u was one of tho ahloHt organs of the party dur ing the last l'resideiitinl campaign. Ils editor is the distinguished Charles A. Luna, Assistant Secrolary of War in tho administration of Lincoln, snd for a long timo connected with tbe iew York lnUUM; On the 4th of March, 1801. Thomas Jefferson rode on horseback unatten ded to Ihecupilol, bitching bis sober guiding at the gale, ascended tho MVfm, took Hie UMlli ut ailiM Irons tho l:pa ol John Marshall, and delivered that inaugural address which bas since been the key-note of the Demo cratic party. John Ouincy Adams, when his Presidential term expired, mounted a quiet nag, tied n portman teau behind him, and wended his way leisurely from Washington loQuim-y, declining to receive any public demon stration Iroiti his admirers along tbe route. At the close ot lien. Jackson s long and remarkable administration, he dentil ted from tho Federal capitul seated in a Brooking ear of the railway, clad in a simple gurb, waving, gruce- lul larewell to Ins Iriemle crowded around the depot, and drawing conso lation from a democratic clay pipe. Each of theso eminent men on sew. oral occasions, some of them of historic celebrity, refused to receive presents as testimonials of regard for public services, both previous to and when filling tho 1'rcsidcntiul chuir, except ing that Slate legislatures voted two or three swords and medals to Gen. Jackson w hile be was in private life, ns tributes to his gallantry in the battle of New Orleans. Neither of them ever bestowed office upon a rela tive, whilo both Jefferson and Jackson specially declined to do so, the former in a letter which rcbukod the practice with marked emphasis. Wo have fallen on other times. Are they better times f On Wednesday, tbe 3d of March, lUliil, tho President elect accepted Stifi.lHKI out of a sum of money raised in Now rork at tns own presMtig solicitation for Gen. Sherman to pity htm (the President) forahouso which he desirsd to soli. On Thurs day ho took tho oath of ofllce, and in his Inaugural address ho pledged him self to liie rigid execution of all laws, whether he liked them or not. JIo then scnt nearly the ontiro first wock of his term in trying to evade the plain provisions of salutary stat utes, beeauso they blocked tho way for the admissii.n of the must impor tant seat in his Cabinet to tho almoner ho had bestowed this dazzling present, lia tiled in this by too nrm- ness of the Senate and iho frowns of tho public, be nevertheless installed ninong his constitutional advisers other individuals who, though not obnoxious to this particular objection, were chiefly distinguished for having conferred upon him costly and valuable bcnefuctintis. Along with other ap pointments bearing this sort ot trade murk, bo appointed as bis Secretary ot Iho Navy a genileman wholly inca pablo of filling tho place, who bad taken tho lead in giving him a fifty thousand dollar house in Philadelphia soino threo years before J and ho stir I rendered Iho baton of General ol 1110,8 Armies lo renowned soldier, who, with bis knowledge and approbation, lifted one band to the oath of ofllee, whilo receiving with tho other a tempting gift valued ai 510U,U00, of winch tho filly thousand aonnre house in Washington formed a pnrt. N'ol to go back to Jellcrson,or Adams, or Jackson, for virtuous examples, even Andy Johnson bad sense nnd decency enough not to accept noises with tho Presidential oath lingering upon his lips. - Such evil practices ol men in high places, whoso vast aehievmnciila have dazzled the popular imagination, lend to demoralize tho public service, and debauch public opinion. Ostentatious displays and profligate expenditures como lo be regarded as necessary con coinitAtits ol olllci.il station, and it is felt that tho main object of oltico is not to discharge one duties to tho country, but to thereby attain sudden riches and indulge in a shoddy mag nificence Tho natural result of all this must inevitably be, that corrup tion and venality will walk unabashed and almost unrenuked through cveiy department.

Scene at the Holy Sopulchre. But my Copt guido came across me in my hiding pluco, and thinking, doubtloss, that ono could be learning nothing of Jcrusa'etn in a dark cafe, ho insisted thut I should go with biin to tho holy sepulchre, where a grand mass was on tho point of being per formed. Passing through the narrow streets again. I entered into an open court, from tho busiest parts of tho bazuar, and found the avenues lined with pretty Syrian women, who offer ed for kule olive-wood rosaries and crosses, shells from tho Dead Sea, oak of Mamro, boxes from Ilobron, carved relics from tho grotlo at Pethlehom, well, in flue, loueaniM fw .orr kolj spot in Puieslino; but 1 soon forgot their clamors, at the strange sight of tho Turkish guard, as 1 turned an angle diroctly fronting tho entrance to tho Sepulchre. In the recess were, at least, fifty soldiers, heavily armed with great pistols and curved sabres; some were lolling on touts, listening to tales of lovo and war, others were smoking and talking; but all this clanking of sabres, and gleaming of alagana, grated harshly on my most sacred pilgrim dreumings ; but 1 soou learned taut theso gourds of Turks were necessary to prevent 'the Chriat ians from cutting each other's throats. It is, alas, too truo ! A pilgrim from one country believes the pilgrim from another to be a barbarian and a cheat, and is sure to bo eternally damned ; the monk of Madrid scowls on tlie monk of Gureb as on a man who is hurrying to bis bed of everlasting fire, and the feeling between Irish landlords and tenants is fraternal compared with the bittcrnossof heart in which aGrcck bishop speaks of an Aineniun friar. Nothing but shrugs and curses in a Galilean, not a Christian spirit that men meet each at this tomb : Latin encounters Copt; Greek, Nestorian each asserts that the other is an in truder into the Holy House their salutations are scowls of hate, their worship is a studio. What wonder, then, thut tho scarred negroes and hired bashi-bazouks despise the Christ ians, and cull them "dogs," w hen their presence is daily required to prevent a disgraceful fight f Let me give you an example : Tho Copts are worship ping befiiru the shrine ; long before they have finished their service of sixty minutes, the Ameti'ani have gathered in numbers about their choir not to join them in prayers, but lo hum prolnne airs, to hiss tho priests, and lo jabber, jest, and snarl at their rivals for the love of Christ. As the hour draws near for the first party to cense, the pari ice of tho second part commence to crowd, and push into their places ono side trying to stay u..b eviooi ot'tinte beyond tl.oir riifl.t the other endeavoring to dispossess them a second betoro they are bound to retire lo steal an instant from tho false, is surely a triumph for tho iruo church. Hut tho instant these priests and worshippers coino lo blows an affair of candles, crooks, and crucifixes tho Turkish guard is amongst them, nnd the ferocious rivals complete their services under the protection of a lino of Moslem matchlocks. "Aluih-il-Allah ! There i. no God but God, and Mohammed it Hit prophet I" Tho Christians cry out: "Why has our ark been luken from us f Is the Turk oeitcr guara lor ins lotnooi tiiris. than the Nazareno?" The fuels an swer. I, nder the Moslem rule, each and every tribe or people of tho earth can como in wlnitover tongue or ritual they may use, and ofler praises to our Father who is in heaven. How, under Christian rule ? Would the liussinn divido his privilege with a FrSnk ? Would the Greek kneel with the Copt ? Tho American Method st with the Spanish Cotholief No. The vices of jealousy and hatred, born in the pride ol treed, show themselves loo plainly here, where, above all places on the earth, tho hearts of men should be lull ot charity and love.

One night in Junnary, 1858, Samuel Kelt hum, then Treasurer ol Coshocton county, O, wns found in his oflieo, tied ha id and feet, gngged and considerably bruised, the sale un locked and about -i),(00 of county funds gone.

Such letters prove two things thut wounded birds flutter, and that in both flocks or parties there are birds to bo wounded. We have no political parly associations and have no reference, remote or immedi ate, to ona more than to another, when wo cry aloud for political re form, when we declare our conviction that our National and our Stato Legis latures are largely under tbe con trot of corrupt men, so that legislation in not now the fruit of intelligent politi cal wisdom, but is eoc.vj in the interest of corporations, cliaues. rinirs. and individuals, lur pnveuo ...j ' not for the publio good.

The ' " politicians of the country th com " pact, active, organized 'army' by " which the whole civil administra " tion is guided and governed have " become utterly demoralized have " thrown away regard for principle " and for honor, and look upon gov " eminent only as an agency for plun " dering tho country for their own " benefit nnd il oillccs, not as a " means of rendering it honorable scr " vice, but of enriching themselves at " ils expons." The N. Y. Evening Tott opens an able articlo on the subject with these anxious words : "How shall we purify onr legisla " lures T many anxious persons cry " out in these days. The increasing ' corruption of publio virtue is viewed " with alarm by a large part of tb " eommunitv bv all. in fact, who mv j j r J -V " attention to public affairs.

Theso are general principle and remarks which command the genoral assent of all honest men, but tho mo ment we apply them to any particular ease, the tsjlilician, though a Christian citizen, bows to thedespotism of party and votes with his friends, though be sells his soul. This has been illustrated at Albany in the passage of th Exciso and School Hills. Men knew that they were voting aguinst God and right, and intelligence and morals, but they voted to help their political par ty. And we have recently bad a practical illustration nf tbe power of monry or of party politics to control Ihe votes of Senators of the United States! We can go no higher than the Sennte, w-ith our illustrations, and our argument is, that if tho Senate will not rebuke corruption and cast out from their presence ns an unclean thing a corrupt man, who asks their seal ol confirmation, then tho last hope of salvation from the politicians has perished The facts have been widely spread beforo the country, but more iiiitnitclv in the X. Y Tiwcs of April Hlth undir the sienilicaiil head, "Offi cial Iialn.nestv no liar lo Promotion in Office." We repent tho sentiment that there is no hope from tho politicians of the day. Statesmen, Christians, men of character and intelligence, w ho havo long ago retired from political circles in disgust, if not In de.mir, must como forth from their seclusion and save the country. An honest man's party must be organized in every city nnd State of the I'uion, and ils power will be felt right speedily.
