Here is the record for the .poor laboring man to ponder upon, while sweet words of love .roll from the mouth of that party, like the tilth v slime of the Hoa Hows over j the victim that it lias seized in its fatal embrace. It is a record to be heeded, tor it has never yet been repented of and at toned for in sackcloth and ashes, but led to a rebellion, the justice of which that party still maintains. The Democratic party would have placed the poor, white settler in Kansas, net on an equality with the n-gro, but rather on an equality with the snue. It would have compelled the poor, but honest farmer struggling for a competency, to compete with slave labor.

EBB-TIDE. A furious war of seething w iter rasing around a battlement of hard,"wet rocks; a foam lashed clitf burying its feet in an angry eea, and a long, white fringe of surf drawi on a line across the blackness of the night; a sweeping gale of wind howling through the hollow cavern among the rocks, and a great ship going to pieces on the reef outside; an old man stooping over some object which the sea had thrown pitilessly among the rocks, and holding -is lantern forward as if to eee what thins; it. was he stumbled over. A little more brandy, my good fellow!1 he 6houted, trying to thru is voice above the loud roar of the breakers. 'It will do you good. I have it. There'.' He lifted up the thing that be found and set it on a rock which the sea in its fury assaulted less mercilessly than the others. 13y the lantern's light it seemed to be a young man, not strikingly Inudsouie, but with well funnel regular featurs, and with a mass of brown hair which lay across his face like a mass of drifted sea-weed. He opened his eyes a moment j in the glare of the lantern, and thea dropped backward again in a swoon. 'No use,' muttered the old man. 'lie's most dead already. The old woman will have to tend him.' Like one used to such burdens, he lifted the insensible waif lightly in his anus and carried hitu by the steep path to the top of the cliff above. A 'little cottage built far back from the edge of the rocks, sent oue cheering ray of light, cleaving through the blustering, inky, night, far out to sea; and towards this the old fisherman made his way. 'Here, mother, he said, bursting open the door wnhhis foot a u d depositing the bubble for it was little else now upou a couch within; 'take care of this one. He is the first. The vessel's breaking up; there may be more Hot brandy and plenty of blankets will do it, I guess.' 'Meicy on us!' cried the old woman, 'what a good looking man! Lay him down there. That's it.

At the window, near his bed sat ja young and slender figure, with liithf'al, j frank, blue eyes, ben ding over some pretty work in worsted.

Yes, Arthur ltolleston. Now I thiuk I will gor to sleep. Please sit where I can see you when 1 awake.' She returned to her window again quietly, and resumed her work, while the patieut fastened his eyes upon her with a gaze so rapt that one would think her tho

last he was to look upon this side of the grave. No one will care to hear the story of his lung recovery; of the dark chaotic

' days that seemed all dreams; of the bright- ! erj pleasanter weeks that were dreams ! too but cheerier Ones; of tha short and j swiftly flying hoars lh.it were painless at ' least, when" he could sit bolstered in one ' f Airs.

The weatherb'Caten , fisherman was seldom at home duriug the day. and the young sufferer was left to the ; gentle ministrations of the old woman and ': ber daughter, more especially tha Utter, ! who waited patioutly oa hiin day after day. And Flora, whose nimble fingers were ever knitting, quickly and surely knitted Arthur llo'lestou's heart in the web with her worsted ; and Arthur himself, who had nothing to do but sit in his great chair and gaze for hours at her pretty cheeks and hair,siw himself hopelessly entangled among the brilliant colors which her busy fingers were weaving together. It was a dreamy, languid day iu August. He was then able to walk about a little with his broken arm in a sling, and he sat with Flora in the little porch before the house, where ijiey could look upon the blue deceitful sea that purred so treacherously along the shore beneath the cliffs. He had been reading aloud from a little poem by Fay: "The waves in calm weither came trinpinglT , trippingly, Rippingiy up from the eea; The flowers at the casement are blomiog and dyThe fmUe on my mout'a hu eadsl in sighing, As thou sttteth alouu by the Sea; Cut the mast is of g ili an i the tbip is of pearl, Aud its Fails take tbe l'.gut Use the long, auioer curl That droops from tby neck to thy knee."

'Striking upon Flora's, as her own fell to pick up against a smaller stone upon the beach beher worsted ball from ber lap: j low, it su'ddeuly altered its course, aud, Uut the waves in rough weather came roarinely, hulling its victims into the sand beneatjj.

Arthur looked at Flora. She hid let fall her wjrk and was gazing; i tho-ihtfullv j at the distant sails far away on the water. : At the h.-i ma rlamA he nurneivn.l that slrn she g ive a irighterrfi little start, aud flushed to het very tein'pl'es. 'Afteruooal' observed the man iu ths blue shirt. 'tood afternoon , Jeth'ro,' replied Flora. 'I'd stop a tew minutes, if I thouhf-l was vvanted,' observed the stranger, biting oil the end of a wisp of hay which he held in his hand. 'Come in,' she said; 'I would like to have you stop, 'No, replied Jethro; 'I don't believe you would an mis lime, aim sauiiiereu on towaras me beach. 'Handsome chap, that,' sai 1 Jethro.

I don't suppose you care anything about that, though. He is l etter looking than I be, aud I d ue say he kno.vs a good deal more. I wish youjoy, Miss Grant.' 'Jethro,' said Flora, 'you are forgetting yourself. What right h ive yoj to talk in thij manner to me?" 'Go id by, Jethro!' Singular, was it not? that when' lie was gene Flora bent her he id upon her hand and cried. Surgular, too, that Jethro Butler, i nste .id of at once returning to his work in the field, strolled lazily along the ehf? alter Uoileeton, and finally came upo i him, unexpectedly, of course, sitting upon a great stone o'lf ihe beach below. 'llailo! ho siid grimly, taking a scut near hun. II .Ho!' replied Arthur. 'Jethro Culler, is i't it.' L'vj heir I of yon.' Thai's my uim-j,' sail Jethro. . Then, as though his heart and head were both hot with some feeling that was rankling iherc, he added, 'You seem to like your ovu company tietter than you do Flora's.' 'What of it?' asked Arthur, sharply. 'O l, nothitig! I'm getting that way myself 1 itely. I didu't used to be, though. Kolleston regarded him for an instant in si'eues. Then he said, 'You dou'tseiUi lo line me very much? No.' replied Jethro, dryly. nyr 'You had better ask 1 lora why. She can tell you as much as I can about it. She knows why I dou't like you, and knows why I hate you." 'Jethro,' said Ilolleston, suddenly, as if a new light had brokeu iu him, 'it L had ever known or thought that I was blotting any b-pe of yours, even though I kuew it to be but a delusion, I should havo left this place long ago.
