" Tho resolutions, of the Convention, which we: have tllrSady hud the! honor of 'placing, in vour hands, aro a full and dear statement of the principles which inspired its action, and which, as we be lieve, tho great body of Union men in the coutitry 'heartily approve.' Whether those resolutions express the national gratitudo to our soldicra and sailors, or the national scorn of compromise with rebels, and consequent dishonor, or tho patriotic duty of union and suocoss; whetbor they ' approve the Proclamation of Emaccipation, tho constitutional a mendment, the employment of former slaves as Union soldiors, or tie solemn obligation of tho Government promptly to redress the wrongs of every soldier of the Union, of whatovor color or race, whether they declare tho inviolability of the pledged faith of tho national hospitality to tho nation, or offer .the national hospitality to the oppressed of every land or urge the union by railroad to the AU lantio and Pacific Ooeans, whether they recomuiond publio economy and vigorous taxation, er assert the fixed popular op position to tho opposition to the establish, uienfc by armed force of foreign mrinarch. ies in the immediate neighborhood bt the United States, oi declare that those only are wortby of official trust who approve unreservedly the' views and policy" "ihdil-cated in the resolutions-they were equally hailed with tho heartiness of profound conviction. ' Believing with you, sir; that this h the people's war tho maintenance of 1 a Gov. eminent which you have justly described as "of the people, by tbo people, lor the people," we are very sure that you will be glad know, not only from tho resolu tions themselves, but from tho siugular harmony and enthusiasm with which they wero adopted, how warm is the popular welcome of every measuro in tho prose- ccution of tho war, which is as vigorous unmistakable and unfaltcriug ac ' the national purpose insclf. No right, for instance, is so precious and sacred to the American heart as that of personal liberty Its violation is regarded with just, instant and universal jealousy. Yet in this hour of peril eery faithful citizen concedes that, for tho sako of national cxisteuco and the common welfare, individual liberty may, as tho constitution providos in caso of rebellion, be sometimes summarily constrained, asking only with painful anxiety, that in every instance, and to the least detail, absolutely nccessarv power shall not be hastily or unwisely exercised We believe, sir, that the honest will of the Union men of tho country was never more truly represented than in this Convention. Their purpose we bclievo to be the overthrow of armed rebels in the field mkI the securitv of permanent peaco and uuion by liberty and justice under the Constitution. That these results are to be achieved amid cruel perplexities they are fully aware. That thoy are to be reached only by cordial unanimity of counsel is undeniable. ' That good men may sometimes differ as to tho means and tllo time they know. That in the conduct of all huniaii affairs the highest duty is to determine, in tho angry conflict of pas. eion, how much good may be practically accomplised, is their sincere ' porsnasion They have watched your official course, therefore, with unflagging attention; and amid tho bitter taunts of eager friends and tho fierce denunciation of enemies, now moving too fast for some, now too slowly for others, they have seen you throughout this tremendous contest, p ticrrt, sagacious, faithful, just, leaning upon the hrtirt ef the groat mass of the poople, and satisfied tobe moved by its mighty pulsations. It is for this reason that; long before the Convention met, tho popular ipstinct had plainly indicated you as its candidate; and the Convention, ' therefore, ' merely recorded the popular will. : Your clnirao-ter and career provo your nnsworving fidolity to thecardinal prirfciples of Amcr ican liberty and of the American' consti tution." In the name of that hbefty an constitution,! sir, we earnestly reqilfist your acceptance of this nomination Kovercntly commending our beloved country, and you, its Chief Magistrate, with all its brave sons who, on : aea and land, irq faithfully defending' th good old American cause of equal right, to tho blessing of Almighty God, , we aro sir, very respoctfally, your friandi an fellow-oitisens. - ;' tWilUam.Deanison; ; Ohio,: .Chairman Josiuh Jjrummoned, Maine; Thomas .

The nomination is gratefully accepted, as the resolutions of the Convention called the platform are hoartily approved. While the resolutions in regard to the supplanting ot republican government upon the Western Continent is fully concurred in, there might be misunderstand ing, wero I not to say that the position of the, Government, in gelation -to .the aption of France fl Mexico, as assumed through the State Department and iudorsed by tho Convention, among tho measures and acis of the .Executive, will bo faithfully maintained so long as tho state of facts shall leave that . position pertinent and applicablo. j :.. , J am especially gratified that the soldier and the seamen were not forgotten by thejCou vention, as they forever must and will be remembered by the . grateful country for whose salvation they devote their lives. , Thanking you, for . tho kind and com plimentary terms in which you comtuunU cated tho nomination and othor proceed ings of the Convention, I subscribe myself. your obedient servant, A. Lincoln . A TOUCHING DEATH SCENE. A little daughter, ten years old, lay on ber death bed. It was hard parting with tho pet of the household. The golden hair, the loving bluo eyes, the bird-like tho trustful, affeotionate, largohearted, pious child!, How could she be given up! Botwcen this child and her father thoro had always existed not a relation ship merely, but the love of congenial natures.. , ; Ufi fell on his knees by his darling's bedside, and wept bitter tears. He strove to say, but could not, 'Thy will be done! It was to conflict such as ho had never before exporionced. His sobs disturbed the child, who had been lying apparently unconscious. , She opened her eyes and looked distressed. .. 'Papa, dear papa,' she said at length 'What is it, darling?' answered the father, striving for composure. 'Papa,', she asked, in faint, broken tones, 'how much do I cost you every year.', , 'Hush, dear, bo quiot!' he replied in great agitation for he feared delirium was oaming. . ' But ploase, papa, how much do I cost you? To sooth her, he replied, though with a trembling voice: , , ' . Well, darling, perhaps two hundred dollars. What then?' 'Buoause, papa, I thought may be you would lay it out this year for poor children to remember me by. , With what delicato iustinct had the dying child touched the springs of comfort. A beam of heavenly joy glanced into the father's heart, the bliss of one noble, loving spirit was mingled with his lift. Self was forgotten the sorrow of parting, the lonely future. Naught remained but the miaion of love, and a thrill of gratitude that in it he and his beloved were co-workers- : i. ; 'I will, my precious child,' he replied, kissing her brow with a solomn tender ness i ' ' Yes,' he added, after a pause,' 'I will do it, every year, as long as I live. And thus my Lilian shall jet speak, and draw hundreds and ; thousands after her to heaven; .- f . :'; The child' very soul beamed forth In a long loving smile as she gaied ' into his eyes; and still gating, she fell asleep. W skins in a few minutes, the ipoke in a loud, clear voice, and With a look of I , i - . ... 'O, papa, what a sweet sight! The golden gates were opened, and crowds of children oam pouring out, 0,such cywdsl And they ran up to me, and began to kiss me, and call me by name. I can't remember what it was, but it meant 'Be loved for thy father s sake!' She looked upwards, her eyes dreamy, her vsice died into a whwper, 'Yes yes, I come!' and the lovoly form lay there untenanted of the lovelier spirit. . ' John Loe arose from his knees with a Iwly triumph on his face. ' , Thank God!' aaid he, 'I am rich by another treasure, in heaven.' Silence. God usually works in silence. There is no noise1 in the revolutions of the heavenly bodies, no jar in the celestial machinery.! Tho' Bun'ls like' a bride- groom coming out of his chamber, but wo hear tl6t the' shutting of the door or the rustle of his shining garments. The moon pale with nightly vigils, silently pursued her pathway nor gives a reason for hor seoming waywardness in turning her face now from us, and toward us. The stars looked as quiet as if they wero not receiving tourtly honors from mighty worlds'.1 '' "' ' In 'our best moods God's works coin mand us to silence. The mountain awes us by its niajostio prosonoo. On the shores of tho sea we commune silently with its greatness. ,Iq the pathless woods .tho rustle of leaves only make us fed alone with God. A beauti ful landscape, like a painting, must be gazed at? in silence,1 irl order to aprecfy ate the beauty nnd greatness of the Inj-finite Artist. :th'e same affect is produ ced by the presence of great men, in genius, in learning, in holiness. . A man of silent power, who' tolls us not. all lie .thinks and foels, attracts us himself. The Bible is a power, partly because of its silence on points upon which human curiosity would gladly have it speak. " Heaven and hell have more Bower over us because we know not all their bliss and woe.' In their depths of the sea the waters are still; the heaviest grief is that borno in silence; the deepest love flows through tho eye and touch; the purest joy is unspeakable; the most impressive prayer is silent prayer; and the most solemn preaclierata funeral is 'the silent one whose lips are cold. ' ' TEMPEBANCE IX EATING- , Tim . excessive use of intoxicating liquors has probably exoited more atten tion, for the last thirty years, than any other evil in our midst. The evil has not boon exaggorated, nor has too much attention been given it. But a kindred suliiect intcmDoranco , in eating has j - been comparatively neglected. Perhaps not one iu ten of our New England population makes daily use of useof ardent spirits, andnot one in a hun dred is nn habitual drunkard. Yet the consequences of the intemperate use of intoxicating drinks are often such as to send a thrill of horror through the whole community. ' ' It is' nevertheless true, that person who have been addicted for a scries of years to the use of spirituous liquors, on reformation have boon left with tolerably sound constitutions and but slightly in: paired intellects. . i . It is not so with those who, for years, have eaten intemperafely luxurious food. The gluttonous mau's punishment is often more dreadful than that of the wine-bibbcr Intemperate eating begets disease, which clings to the system for life. Dyspepsia, gout, paralysis, are enemies not easily dispersed. "Lot us eat and drink, for to-morrow wo die," is a precious text to many who seem to live only to eat, and eat as the French have t " to see how far the skin may be ctretched.'' ' Old . Bachelor. ,Appleton's Cyclopedia contains the iollowing hint to bachelors. , "In the good old times it was considered unpatriotio in a oitizen to remain a bachelor all his days. By the Spartan laws, those citizen who remained bache lors after 'middle ace, were excluded from all offices, civil and military At certain feasts they were exposed to publio dorision, and led around the market . place. Although, generally speaking, age was usually respeoted at Sparta, yet this feeling was not manifest ed to old bachelors. " 1 ' f Why should I make way ' for you? said a Spartan' youth to a gray-bearded old bachelor, 'who will never have a son to do me the same honor when I am olit ' The Roman law pursued the same policy towards bachelors. Tbey had to pay extra and speoial, taxes, , and. , under Augustus a law jras enacted by which bachebrs were made incapable of aoquir ing legacies and devises of real estate bill exoept from their near relatives.

HE LAW AND nANNSat .OV T. HE UOAD. All cf us havo idoas more or less cor rcct, in regard to the law which regulates our use of the highways; and, at any rate, good sense and good nature are usually very safe guides. A few ,'words on' the subject, however, may not be amiss. It is coturnoDiy said that every one has a right tok half the road. , This is practically true, and conies about in this wise: You and I meet; upon the road-r-i our legal rights aro equal, and both have a right to go oit several ways without obstruction, so, popularly, we say I own half and you half. . The law 'steps ' in to facilitate matters, and direots ' each to tnrn towards his right hand. The road should be "worked" wide enough, for two teams abreast, when each man has a I cloar title to passage on his right side I ot tne way; and no one nna a ngnt to OD- struct another while on his own proper t.-act. Una is true wnatever me loaa or the team; for if one can drive such a team that another can pass him with difficulty or not at all then their rights are no longer equal. This point becomes very imp ortant in winter, for it is no joke to turn your horse and all into the deep snow while your noighbor goes smoothly along in the beaten path. . No one has a right so to load his team as not to be able . , mands it. o " , , , . , A foot-man may choose the part which pleases .him or any portion of his right hand half the way and the team must yield to him. This is clearly so in win - er, and no mas is obliged to step into the snow for one or two horses. This it the law and tho court awards if I Now for the manners of the road ; whio h in some instances, very from the law thereof. . . : The first requirement of road manners is good nature and an aocommodating spirit. Do good to othecs as, you would il, 4 n., A In-.,,. V,n milt have them to do to you. . Always be will. ing to yield more than ono half the space then you will be pretty sure to be equally well treated. Ihey who exaot inches will lmttA tnnlma OTanfnrl nf tlinm . TP vnill 14(4 T U IUUIIUH . vu v. wu.u. a. J neighbor has a heavy load consult his convenience as far as possible; you may practical rule of courtesy to turn out for wood and logs, and other heavy teams in winter, for they say, " wo often cannot turn out, and never safely, so. if you want wood, accommodate us;" which we are willing to do. But remember it was a favor, not your right, and you have a reciprocal duty to perform, one which I am sorry to observe is nol always borno in mind. When you have unloaded and returning empty, just reoollect that you had the whole road in the morning, and it is no more than fair 'that you should be particularly obliging to those whom you meet now, and give them . their full share of the path. ..,,,,--,..; One word in relation to teams going (he same way; in whioh case many seem to think there is neither iaw nor manners When a team comes up behind you, which desires to proceed faster than you do, that team has a right to a reasonable space and opportunity to pass in in faot to half the road for that purpose and your obstructing him in hit lawful desire is both bad manners and bad law. If your load is heavy, do the best you can. Inmost cases the very, least that can bo asked is that you should stop. , This is particularly so m winter, when it is heavy tax on; a team to forc it into heavy trot in deep snow made neocssa- ry by your continuing at a walk. , My remarc fioovq in reiauou io uig euipueu wood sled applies hero, and if one wishes to pass you, remember that while loaded by In OIK yoa iau mo wiiuiu rotiu. : Xc!op this disarttion .with aa 'tp propriato, spborism: Wheol, grease ia a Kr'.at lubricator,, but..cood nnncra srij vastly ffreatw one.
