l'orw Rob Hunter ! —ail the looming since
Int night first broke up from thb east, he

loam front the soft sky above 4ted sag her
3ong :11 trues that sbudowtd hint ; dead to
her work eturrxhere—the green of the
meadows and hills ; the Wet:toms that lent
up their fragrance n.loont him, and the sweet
hrouitat that played over his turning cheek
and lifted his matted uneenthed hair. Dead
to the world—to him own heart—W.4 to his
strength and manhood!
• It was no Hew thing. alas! for Bob llunt, 7
er to sleep I.y the mutlside ; uo new sight
fur' the villagers to see him as they passed
along the streets, lying under the row;
his noOr clothing tamp with dew, his head
resting upon the ground. Indeed bad he
so long teen an out oasts—so•long lost, it was
TO WwIRICr to 1110,se who had :MOM] hill)
from his childhuod even, to see him thus;
not a tongue, however emit:towed to serve
its own in . the great cause of' humanity, that
would say, either in pure pity or tenderness,
"Bob Hunter wai drunk by the roadside
this morning . '"
It would have beep quite as well to have
affirmed that Mount Monadnock was west
of the village,. or that in the north as far as
one could roe, the spearlike • pines pricked
do blue sky. True, some would venture to
say that he was a disgrace to the village;
and other:, forgetting that God was on earth,
would say that he would be better off dead ;
that he was no use in the world ; that be
was but u brute, and that the last spark or
truth and maidessl had died out in his soul.
Alas fur them, that having light they are so
in dad:nese—and also e'er him that his
}Sits-ion eaniebetween him and his God ;
between him and his fellow ereatureft, and
then turned upon his own human heart.
But I have to tell of this one Lvight,
cheery morning that Bob Bunter slept by
the wayside. It was a pitiable sight indeed,
a wretched picture that be made, the fallen
man, lying there; his torn hat by his side,
his ragged clothes wet with dew, his paid
trembling hands ebtsped over his breast, end
his bead pillowed on the grass, so near* a
neighhoriug garden that a stray rose glisten
ing with tears looked down upon him from
the low fence whom it had crept to blossom.
Poor inan ! if ho could only have taken tlio
lesson that the dewy flower taught into his
sodden heart!

her little dimpled hands over her face.—
'A unt Luey says it*s. terrible to he
"Dues, eh? Well, she's mistaken ; the

Again the child looked wonderingly into
the fleshed face of the inebriate.

That was enough. The nott moment she

"What am you looking air a-kefl Thh.
"You look .lek, just as papa di4l wheu he

And he drank long and deeply,. nor put

while the child clapped her hawk, and ohook
her head till her hai6 half in curl and half

"De you feel' better ?"
The man rn►iled a wane, pitiful aurae,
as though l►i:a.sodden heart WIN trying to

"0 yea, better!"

What was there in the reddened visage,
or hesitating 'speech of the Weer-eyed ine
briate that sent the little fair faced girl closer'
to his side?
"May I be your little girl ?"
She asked it with lath bands clasped in
his ; so near him that her sweet breath was
against his burning check.
"I'm poor BA Bunter, what d'yc want to
be mine for?"
lle hid his face iu his hands while he
spoke. Out from .the world u• he was, he
was no stranger to its cruel rebuffs. In this
sober moment otitis life they came upon
him like a terrible cure°. As he crouched
betbre the child, he saw himself as he really
was. Through the light of her purity he
behold his heart in all its rottenness. lie

little creature still cling to him ?Abe answer
ed him softly, still clasping her hand in his.
,llid all heaven listen to her?
"I want to be yours because you bav'nt
anybody to love you."
"But I'm Wicked and don't deserve any

Ills Whole heart gave way as he spoke,
and the words awe from his lips In gasps

to pave the way to a gradual and safe return

the Radical party, the, party of violence and
usurpation, which fur the last four years, to
prolong its own existence, has met at nought
the Constitution and the fultdamental prin
ciples of our government, that re intend
ret'olution and della:we of established laws.
The accusation is unfounded and absurd ;
it cannot be entertained for a moment by
any intelligent voter who has even the most
superficial knowledge of the history of his
country. The Democratic party can proud
ly point to every pace of its record. It has
never violated a single obligation of the
fundamental compact by which these United
States entered into the family or nations.—

Four years ago wo failed to expel them

now declare, the revolutionary purposes of

as they would rule the country—with a des-
Rolle pway. But these four years have jus
tified aur warping. Our worst predictions
then are' their enactments now. What we
feared they have done. The revolution has
made steady progress. Olice more we call

This is an anti-slavery journal. Looking
out on polities, as the negro looks on them,
it deals with public men fuel measures o nly
as they are true or false to him. Bet has
abundantly proved even before the existence
of the present administration, that only
temperance is the substratum of' all other
reforms. How sad the result when power
is given to men who aro wont "to put an
enemy into their mouths to steal away their
brains," this war has almost impressively
shown us. Erne nonors reach, .4f,',, n 0 Jrndi

that owls of those reslorts is of to olono m.

The nation is bound to ioquire as to the

tho emseriettee of the last three years it has
no right to ram the s,h,dttest risk in this re-
Aflt`Ct. No talb.th men, whose frif.. n d. , are
a sking fin him high office, ought to cent
plain of the strietost scrutiny by the poblic,
as to his habits in this particular. We call,
therefore `on the national and Suite temper
ance societies to investigate theta reports,
They have this suisieet in their special
tihar.te. They are bound to give it'ir the
facts, and save us from even the possibility
of arson ano the r infliction a- the nation now
suffers. Illspeeially we call on the
,Tlenry Willsomit pledged teetotaller, see
that the whole truth in this matter is given
to the country. lie less devoted himself to
the ,itivoeasy of Grant's claim. AS a tall.
pomace man, he is !soma to see that we
run no risks of this kind. Living in Wash

Wean' umwee ,,, arity anxiotts, let !dm relieve ,

°evasions to withstand this temptation. It
the fad is not so, kit him explain to his

garvest crime to give it to him if that vice
still holds him in its. grasp. Of course fideli

WHAT \V MAY LOOK FOlL—What we
may look for in the event of Grant's elec
tion is clearly set forth is ..the Baltimore

"And lot us furthoriell our eotemporary

for the obsolete heresies of the South:* We
expect during Gun. Grant's admini3tration
to reconstruct this state—to wrest it from
the destroying clutches of the Democratic
natty, and place it in a position for compe
tition with the free progressive Status of the
North and West."
