I’m writing poetry, Mother,
And if ’tis not my own,
Thei-c‘iz none to detectit, Mother,
Tlierefore itwill not be known ,:
My mind is calm and tranquil now,
And a1l’s serene and still,
A good time to improve the mind,
1-‘orevery one that will.
Ideas are coming fast, Mother,
While I invoke the muse,
And I’ll select from poets, l-Toilier,
And clizingc to suit my views ;
Those ancient poets and poetesses,
What did they know of metro I
Hi curve and seiison to my taste,
And make it so much sweeter.
Those who read my poems, }l0lhE1'-,
Will say, “oh! what a poet l”
And if tliey-‘ve read the same before,
'l‘liey‘re green, and will not know it ;
And thus I'll build myself a fume,
Upon some otlier’s labor,
And be so very smart, you know,
More so than any neighbor.
This is “ original” Mother,
Of which there is no doubt,
For ’twa.s min-k"d so in the paper,
From whence ’twns taken out ;
Some envious person may say,
“ ’Sliaw ! _vo.u’re no great poet ?”
But time will bring it all about,
When they and all will know it.

A bud in on her bosom laid, ll blossom’: in her hand ;
The bud though broken from the stem, :1. flower may

She was is. sprightly maiden, not many moons ago,
And loving friends her modest fame was wofting to and

She stood before the altar, in all her youthful pride,
A kind and loving daughter, ii proud and happy bride.
Friend after friend salute her, with pleasant words of

The world seems all 3 joyous scene, and life without
alloy.
The cup of blissful nectar she presses to her lip,
And dalntily she takes the draught, sip, after little sip.
No bitter dregs are in the cup, no lurking poison there,
No disappointment. no disgrace, no uni corrodlng care.
The bride becomes more thoughtful, new hopes and
fears arise
And friends becoming anxious, she makes them vague
replies.

There being no choice another ballot
was taken. (At this point in the ‘pro-

left the Convention, deputing Mr. E. S.
Cleveland of that city his siibstitute, by
the following certificate : "
“ I hereby substitute and appoint Ed-

substitute to act in my name and stead
in all matters pending before the Demo-
crutic Convention now in session at New
Haven.” J . C. P.iL:iIsri,
Delegate from Hartford.
This certificate was at once presented
to the Secretaries, and they altered the
roll accordingly, and Mr. Cleveland vo-
ted at all succeeding ballots. As he is
known, however, to be :1 strong Douglas
man there are ominious mutterings among
the custom house and post ofiice democra-

It was moved -that all future ballots
be taken at the seats of members by the

Mi‘. Cleveland called for the report of
the Committee on Resolutions. They
appeared and reported as follows :
RESOLUTIONS.
Jiesolvczl, That it thorough investigation
into the nianagement of those institutions
in Connecticut, that rely upon the public
Trensiiry for support, is dcmimcled ; and
that in the present embarassed state of
our Treasury, the most rigid economy is
due to a people already taxed enough.
.Ré’SOZ‘l.'ed, That the policy which de-
manded a repeal of the free banking law
of this State, meets with our disappi'oba-
tion. “'9 regarcl the principle which se-
cures the bill holder, in the several bank-
ing crisis, as of great value to the public.
Resolved, That experience teaches us
that our opponents in Connecticut, as
well as in other States, make lavish use
of the public money, and run the‘ people
in debt. . The Democratic-party of 1850
found a public debt resting upon the peo-
ple of Connecticut They paid it, and
in 1854 left a. surplus in the treasury of
$54,000. Our opponents have expended
this surplus, together with a. large sum
raised by extraordinary taxes, and have
already accumulated another debt amoun-
ting to $100,000, and this debt will in-
crease, (or taxation must be doubled,)
till the State is again confided to the
hands of the Democracy, and controlled
by sound Democratic principles.
Resolved, That the loose mode of legis-
lotion, in granting bank cLiai'tei's, and in
selling those charters for n stipulated
price, which has been adopted by our pol-
itical opponents, is demoralizing, and has
contributed towards those recent finan-
cial disasters which have their chief ori-
gin in a vicious banking system.
Resoh-ed, That the conduct of our op-
ponents in condemning frauds at the bul-
lot box, whilst they were actually com-
mitting frauds upon the ballot box, in
their own State convention, is 9. fair com-
meutary upon the honesty of their profes-
sions, ' -
Resolved, That we have full confidence
in the integrity, patriotism and states-
manship of James Buchanan, and that we
will SllS(a_S,'_.‘.,l1iS administration in its efforts
to, promote the welfare and prosperity of
the coiuitry.
Resoli-ed, That tlic\Demor:i'acy of Con-
necticut still adore to and maintain, the
great principle of popular sosfereigrdy as
embodied in the Iiztigsaa Nebraska bill,
113 €lll"1Fm_,e€_l it; like Cincinnati Platform,
a_I;,d, re-éif2li'iiieil by the Presirlent in his .111-
aiigiiral.

(As soon as the resolutions were finished
many members sprung to their feet--there
being great and general dissatisfaction
with them its neither “ fish, flesh nor good '
red hei‘i'ing.” Mr. VVoocl_wurcl, being it
“gcniiine,”. of coi_i_i_'se liacl the floor.) In
justice to. the Committee let me say that
they not unanimous on these resolutions.
They were adopted because they said so
little, and would do no hurt ! One mem-
ber thought they ought to euclaijse Bu.-
clmnan, or else let it he l§l.1.C>i\\'u that we
cannot. In just-i._C-9 to. oiwselves, and to _
the State, tint} to the Democracy, we
ought to do one or the other. The day
is past to express our sentiments on the
N ebraska bill. I offer the following sub-
stitute :
Resolved, That we cordially approve
of the Adminstration of James Buchaziau
and we believe,» with t_lia,+, distinguished
patriot, th_at. the sooner the‘ 'l‘erritoi'y of
Kansas is uclmittcd into the Union as it
sovereign State, the better it will be for
the peace and prosperity of the Union,
and we hereby endorse the sentiments
expressed in his late message to Congress.
(Both the original resolutiocs and the
substitute, were i_'ei_i_d, the fo,rmer being
applaiuclecl ivitli cries, of “ th-'.\t’s enoug_l1,”
“ill?-X are euoiigh,” and the latter being
louclly and generally upplauelcd.)
Mr. Wooilwuril. I could ,do no less
tlinu introduce that substitute. I um
usliamed [0 appear before the State and
say that we have only endorsed the moi'ul_
character of the President, and his hoii-
esty, but dared say nothing ab_',>,u_t_ the
great subject that is unit; agitating the
land. We must sv ,eaIg out, our consti-
'.‘,ep_ts_ expect it. Something is C106 to
them. -Te must not be led by men whose
toes ure so, teucler that they cannot be
touclleil.
Colin M. Iugersoll, of New HtlVCn.-—I
second the amendment of Mr. Wooclwaiil
It is scarcely three years ago since I stood

(Great uproar, cries of Yes! Yes? and

I wont 3)opu'::ii' soveipignty. What do
330.8‘. want . Why go further? I have n.
a ‘right to say that this measure is not a
test of Democracy, and shall not he made

condemn this policy. What, Sir l are
Toombs and Stephens, two old Whigs,
not yet dry behind the ears, are they to
read true and tried Democrats out of the
party? Are these two men, those rank
(lisiiiiiohists, those old Whigs, to break
up the party ? Are they to turn honest
and true Democrats out of office, because
they disagree from ‘them ? Has it come
to this? In God's name, what principle
of Democracy have they except. the ex-
extensiou of sl£ii'ei'_v?' Has it come
*0 this, that these two federsilists,
disiuiiouists and slavery propsigniirlists,
shall read honest. Dcuiocrats out of the
party? (Cheers and liisses. At this
point the speaker had someivlnit cowerl
down the opposition, and many were ery-
iug, “ liear, hear, good,” though a num-
bcr were steadily hissing.)
I have it right to think, and to act on
this biisiness. In the resolutions present-
ed, the popular sovereignty doctrine, as
expressed in the Cincinnati plat-
form, is endorsed and maiiituined. That
is enough. Now they say we Sl-l:‘l.l’l swal-

read the certificate before given by us.)
A delegate inquired if Mr. Cleveland
was a voter in this State, and declared
that he was not.
Mr. Strong, of Hartford, declared that

Mr. Strong replied that’ the right" to
appoint their own substitutes was given
to the delegates by the caucus at Hart-
ford. Mr. Cleveland was regiiarly ap-
pointed, aiid the defeat at Hnrford had
nothing to do with his right here. It
might be answered, indeed, that lie was
only defeated by fraa.d-., but that had
nothing to do \\'itli_it'. Mr. Palmer could
appoint vrhom he pleased. If he could
appoint upersou who had no votes in the
Hartford caucus, he certainly could up-
point (1 person who had nearly half.
