C3"As they have no Democratic paper in the 4ih Congressional District, and as our paper cir culates extensively In that District.in charitv to that party we will publish an article for lliem occasionally. See Mr. Daily's Card. ICPThe Lawrenceburgh Register very fromptly accepts our proposition to publish an article setting forth the claims of Col. Watts Mr. Lane, in return, asks us to publish the article in this paper, headed "Who are Democrats r Pmtrtrntint nsrrmrutn. "We have indications or a preconcerted and 'organized movement in favor of bringing DanM Webster forward for the Presidency. We are advised of this move by low and distant murmurs or the breeze through the naper, but more distinctly through private letters, t'pon this subject we have no concealment, nor do we desire time to mature our opinion. We are not far Danl Webster, at any time, or Under any contingency. He it neither on the list of our available or last resorts. Should Scott or Fillmore be the candidate we are for them with a hearty good will. There are, too, scores or others eminently worthy of that distinguished station, for whom we could battle with teat. And the Hon. John J. Crittendon is not among the least prominent of that Class. Bat we can have noshare or lot In the precent movemente in favor of Webster, but if we are Tightly Informed there is a secret organization in hi favor of no mean importance, and which will not easily be disposed of, without trouble in the camp. Rut thow who are snuffing the breeze, can know where to aote down a little p aper about 40 miles from Cincinnati. IKblir Nprakina-. John L. Robinson is now on the stump.

Oh! who hath bowed an humble form And shed the scalding tear; And quailed before the awful atorm Deserved, though severe? Oh! who hath often made his friend, A mantling blush to wenr; And caused a parent's soul to bend O'erburden'd with deep care? Oh ! who hath oft a sister grieved, And stained a brother's name, And sadly a dear wife bereaved Of love's celestial flame? Alas! who thus hath blindly erred Has a hard fate to bear, And cheerfully ia death preferred To his sad life or care. Yet, nonc, as he, knows how to love Who from their hearts, attuned above, Speak forth a cheering word. Kind mortal, may your heart within, Ever be blessed with love; Bo free from sorrow, pain, and sin, And God's sweet promise proveThat whoso lifts a spirit np With word, or look, or prayer. Shall taste, on earth, a sweeter cap, 1 A I.l.clnn. .li...
