GEMEN '1' ROOI'iNG.
r " \HIS article has been thoroughly tested by
builders, Architects, and others, and the
experience ofyears has'proved it to be the
cheapest- and most- durable roofing in use.
We call attention to the following facts :
, let—It is fire and water proof.
Zd—From its great elasticity it ,is not inju-‘
riously affected by extremes of heat and cold.
lid—It is adapted to all kinds of Roofs,
whether steep or flat, and is not in want. of
. constant repairs, as is the case with metal and .
other roofs.
4th—.—The cost is only about Onc-lIa-lf that
of Tin, and it is twice as durable.
It is readily applied to 'Old Shingle Roofs,
without removing the shingles, which is a
great. desiderat-um to parties who do not wish
to risk having their ceilings and furniture ru-
ined, while repairs are being made. _
Leaky Tin and Metal Roofs are readily rc-
paired with Gutta I’crcha Cement, and
- prevented from further corrosion and leaking
thereby insuring a perfectly water-tight root
for many years. '

A. Democratic Paper for Lincoln.
A correspondent of the Cincinnati Gazette
some days ago announced the change deter-
mined npon by the Piqua Enquirer, one of
the ablest of the Democratic papers of Ohio,
from Douglas _to Lincoln. That journal
now runs up the names of Lincoln and Ham-
lin and the Republican State Ticket. The fol-
lowing very explicit and satisfactory reasons
are given by the Editor, D. M. Fleming, Esq,,
for his course :
“We demanded as a condition precedent
to our support of the Charleston-Baltimore
nominees, that the platform adopted should
recognize the great doctrine of popular sov-
ereignty. After hoping- against hope, this
princrplc was repudiated by both wings of
the party to which we had for long years
given a cordial support, the one boldly avowr
ing the doctrine that ‘ the - Congress of the
United States were bound to enact laws for
the protection of Slaveryin the Territories,
and the other accomplishing the same pur-
pose by making the Dred Scott decision a
part of their political creed. On these two
platforms are placed nominees and our sup-
port demanded.
The position we have occupied for years
on this question has been familiar to our
quondam political associates. We have openly
avowed our most unqualified oppooition to
the principle that the Constitution recognized
or protected Slavery in the Territories, and
to that other modern political heresy, aslave
code, in no unmeasured terms. We demand-
ed the most perfect freedom to the people in
the Territories, with the right guarantied
them not only to regulate their own afi‘airein
their own way, but to elect their officers from
Governor down, thus giving them popular
sovereignty in the truest sense of the. term;
but we have got neither, and are now re-
quired to swallow Breckinridge and Lane
with a slave code, or Douglas and Johnson
and the Dred Scott decision with the south-
ern interpretation, or go out of the party to
which we have ever belonged. We have
chosen the latter.
We find ourselves without political sympa-
thies with’our former political associates.—
\Vc are driven to the necessity of seeking
new; and we find in casting our eye over
the political field an honest man entertaining
honest sentiments, uncontaminated by acou-
tact with political tricksters and a life-long
struggle for the Presidency, representing all
the generous feelings of his party in favor of
free territories. We find him representing
the sentiments which we have in vain sought
to make the sentiment of the party to which
we have belonged. We therefore place the
name of Abraham Lincoln at our masthead,
and proclaim him as our choice for President
of these United States, believing that a gen-
erous public will sustain us in thus adopting
the right.”
The Enquirer copies the minority report
made by the Douglasite candidate for Vice
President, Herschel V. Johnson, six weeks
ago, in denunciation of “popular sovereign-
ty” and favoring a slave code for the territo-
ries:
“net the Democracy of Miami county un-
derstand that this is the man and these the
sentiments which they are called on to sup-
port. If they are ready to adopt the above
as their platform, and place men in power
who entertain such sentiments, so be it. If,
on the contrary, they see a political heresy in
this which they cannot support, let them fol-
low in our footsteps, and like honest men
refuse further to follow in a course which
must eventually lead to political ruin.”
The honest friends of free labor everywhere
are leaving the Democratic factions and ral-
lying to the standard of Lincoln and Ham-
lin, disgusted with the treacherous course
and the tortuous policy of the old leaders
who have deceived and betrayed them.

ty name, I always thought. Minnie was a
good child, and being the first born, was half
maternal in her management of the later
comers, even down tolittlc “Pigeon,” the la-
test and tiniest of. all.
The picture of Minnie is just as fresh in
my memory as though the forty years which
have simmered and evaporated since had
been weeks instead. But it is a father’s eye
that looks over these years at Minnie, and
the beauty may be half fancy—a sort of affec-
tional illusion. Those we love are transpa-
rent, you know, we who love them look thro’
into the heart, and then imagine that it is sur-
face tint and surface-light of which we are
thinking.
This much I know, Minnie was the best,
most affectionate and wildest of daughters—
one of those spirited but industrious little
creatures upon whose enterprise and tact the
grratest and strongest of as will involuntari-
ly lean.
“Minnie, shall I want five or six breadths
in this skirt?” her mother would say.
Looking up, with just a little knitting of
the forehead, after a moment’s thought, Min-
nie would say :
“I think five will do, mother.” And five
it was.
I can hear, even now, the voice of Minnie‘s
mother—she has been gone twenty years,
dear heart—calling from the top of the
stairs:
“Minnie! Say—Minnie !
“What mother 2”
“What shall we have for dinner to day 2’”
“You are tired, mother, let’s have a little
ham and some eggs, with some peas from the
garden, and bread.” That settled the bill of
fare.
And so it was through the live-long day;
for in all domestic policy, Minnie, though
only prime minister, possessed fully regal
powor.
At this time, this forty years ago, I was, of
course, in the'prime of life, and full of the
cares which cluster and cling to onc’s man-
hood. I was largely engaged in active busi-
ness, received some slight evidences of public
confidence, saw a large family coming up
around inc—from all of which my natural
positiveness and force of character received
more or less strengthening.
One night, when the last candle had‘becn
extinguished and all was hushed, my wife
said, with some anxiety of tOnc.
‘f Husband, I feel uneasy about our .Min—
file 1”
“Minnie ? Why, what’s the matter? is she
sick ?”
“No; she isn’t. sick, but—”
“But what, wife ‘3” ' .,
“Why, Minnie is—I mean, she seems to
be—well, Fm afraid she' likes J emmy Brun.”
' “Jammy Brim! ‘She’d betternot.’, AndI
*leapedvto the floor and walked‘to ‘thewindow.
“Jemmy Bran and our Minnie l—a pretty
mate .” ‘ . ‘
“I was afraid you would be disturbed,
dear; but don’t take it too much to heart,
husband. I dare say we can put a stop to
it.” And motherly sobs came from the pil-
low.
“Put a stop to it! I guess Iwill! J cmm y
Brun and our Minnie ! . I guess I will put a
stop to it.”
And who was this J emmy Brun? . A young
man of some two years residence in the
neighborhood, of good habits so far as I
knew, but altogether and diametrically op-
posed to my taste, to my ideal of manliness.
I had always worshipped business tact and
enterprise. It had taken me, when a penni-
less boy, and brought me up through num-
berless difficulties to a position of influence.
That which was found in my nature when
young,was thus nourished and rooted through
all the after years of struggle ripening into
triumph.
The young man was Ofa literary turn of
mind; had taught in an . academy, was a
writer, it was said, for one or two periodicals.
There was an air of sentiment about him, in
his looks and manners, which came precise-
ly within the scope of my contempt. I had
known it in others, in strOng business men-—
this utter contempt for the least possible
manifestation of sentiment; for those un-
thrifty fellows who never have an eye for
business, but. hang upon the skirts of thought
clasp imagery, and ride upon rythm. You
may see it now every day in commercial
houses. It springs, Ithink, from the abso-
lute antagonism of fact and fancy—of the
figures which dot the pages of the ledger,
and those which illumine the lines Of the po—
ct. “The muses frowned on me," said (a
German poet, “for keeping account bo‘Okéf‘,’ .
Undoubtedly. Nor is the knight of the bal-
ance sheet less intolerant to those miserable
fellows whose entire stock in trade can be
stored within a very little cavity just behind
the frontal bone.
My good wife had a time of it cooling me
down, and preventing the adoption of most
violent measures, Even when I had formal-
ly surrendered to her superior discretion, I
chafed by times liken bear in harness. If
wife had not been almost a Rarey in tact, I
should certainly have broken into plungings
even sooner than I did.
Minnie was one day taken into solemn con-
ference by her mother, with only pussy in
the doorway as an auditor. But the child,
though she blushed very much, moved
about from seat to seat, and tore pieces of pa-
per into bits, declared that she was heart-
whole yet—“as why shouldn’t she be ?—-for
Jemxny Bron had never said a word to her
which any man might not have said to any
maiden.”
So wife and I got easy again.
But what should I see one evening at twi-
light, while sauntering out undei the shad-
ows of my own grove of forest oaks not far
from the-house, but two figures flitting hith-
er and thither among the distant trees ‘3—
Like a knave as I was, I sat on the ground
and watched them. Watched themnervous-
1y, glaringly, till I saw Jemmy Bran give
Minnie a kiss on her lips, and look lov-
ingly after her as she slipped away.
I was reclm' ing on the sword by her path.
Determined to meet and-confront her there, I
sat and waited her coming.
Certainly Minnie’s faeexnever wore that ex-
pression before. It was not gleeful, but it
was radiant, and‘her eyes, which was bent
on the ground, and hence only visible as she
came very near me, had a light and depth
that Imer saw‘before; Shamssed me, so

_...__-r..___ _.‘. - .._. ._.___-
utterly was the child absorbed in her own
emotions, '
“Minnie!” I said, in atone which startled
myself scarcely less than the child.
“Oh i”. and she sprang from the path as
though the sound had been a rattle among
the grass.
I raised myself slowly—I am very slow
when I am V817 angry—and standing directly
beforeher, glowered down into her eyes—
Minnie’s beautifulliving eyes—with a stern-
ness which had never failed to terrify. But
the child, though she trembled like an aspen
at first brought her father‘s spirit to the res-
cue, and, in the strength of love and innoL
cence, looked into her father’s angry face at
length with perfect composure.
I shall not repeat the words that followed;
they never shall be written, and would to God
they had never been spoken.
Minnie had given him her heart, and would
give him her hand. How could she help it?
Even her father’s anger should not prevent
her fulfilling her word; for was not J cmmy
Brun worthy, and was not her father’s anger
unreasonable and unjust ? All this she said
to me with the deep calmness of a. perfect he-
roine, while I stood there, almost as much
astonished as angry.
“Wife, it’s all up with Minnie," said I
striding into the sitting-room, and break-
ing upon a most comfortable afternoon rev-
erie, only relieved by the solemn ticking of
the clock, and the busy click of the knitting
needles.
“Lord! what’s the matter ‘3" and the ball of
yarn rolled across the floor, while a flower-
pot on the window fell spilling and crashing
on the bricks outside, “there goes that flow-
cr pot—tell me quick—you look as pale as a
sheet.”
“Minnie has promised to marry that scape-
grace in spite of us; she says she will to
me, in the face of my absolute commands."— .
Thereupon I walked the floor, wife staring
at me all the while. “I’ll never forgive her——
never.”
“Husband, stop and think. He—”
,“I won’t stop and think. I say I’ll never
forgive her and I won’t. Call her in.”
Wife left the room in search of Minnie.—
She was gone a long while ; from which
circumstance I have always had a suspicion
that she spent the time in soothings and
comfortings scarcely to be considered as
abetting my view of the case. At length
they returned; both tearful. 'We sat down
together; a constrained group; Minnie very
tearful, but very sweet and beautiful. The
interview was short and these. were the clo—
sing words: -
' “Father, I have always been a dutifulchild
——"ou will do me that justice. But I love
this man. You grant that. his character is
unimpeachablc, but you forbid our marriage
because you have a prejudice against him. I
love? and honor you, father. You can not
doubt that; but in this case I must follow the
dictates of my own heart,”
“ Do so if you will ; but ~1‘emembcr, your
father will never forgive you.” ‘
Thus ended "the interview, wife sobbing
distressfully. Minnie weeping quietly, and I
sitting glum and angry.
Minnie kept her word, and became the wife
of Jemmy Brun.
I did not forbid them the house, as most
angry fathers are said to do, but I told Minnie
again that she had lost my love and care.—
Thcn I was so foolish as to see J cmmy Brim,
and in a very silly speech inform him that
since he was taking my daughter from her
father without his consent, he need expect no
gifts or favors now or henceforth. She would
not be allowed to share in the family inheri~
tance, nor should I render the least assistance
if they “should come to want.” Ishall never
forget the queer look the young man gave
nie—a glance in which pride seemed almost
vainly struggling with a cluster of mirth-
sparkles. ,
“Very well, Sir; we will try not to ‘comc
to want.’ ” That was all he said; but the
cool self-possession of his manner made me
feel as though I had undertaken to drive a
nail and had pounded my fingers. '
I had always been demonstrative toward
my children—the elder as well as the young-
er. Minnie had never lost her right to her
father’s knee, nor did she ever meet me in
the morning or part from me at night with-
out a kiss. This was denied her now. Poor
child! it was the sorest trial of all. Once or
twice she clung tearfully to me in sternness,
and reaching up to clasp my neck with her
white arms, tried to bend my lips to here.—
No. I promised her never a kiss while I
lived.
Women are strange creature. There was
wife who had entirely sympathised with me
as I supposed, absolutely giving aid and com-
fort to our daughter. I verily believe that
long before the wedding-day came she was
as thorongly interested in the whole affair as
though Minnie had been about to marry the
best business man in town. Little use it was for
me to tighten my purse-strings, and direct
that the child should have no marriage outfit
of wardrobes, pillow-cases, counterpaues and
the thousand and one etccteras in which
mothers take such pride and pleasure. In
spite of me, but surreptitiously, Minnie was
well provided for, I am sure. I remember
that the shopman’s bill for some ten months
after seemed unusually full, both in number
of items and footing of column; and I shrewd-'
1y suspect that wife had arranged with the
tradesman to have the articles scattered along
through the months. She was always a good
financier.
The ceremony was performed in church.
I was prescnt,lest my absence might give too
great notoriety to the family jar. Useless--
The whole town having long since been
made acquainted with the state of affairs, the
bride’s beauty and the bridegroom’s popular-
ity set many eyes on me with the sparkle of
criticism in them. ‘
“ He needn’t look so savage-like, muttered
a gruff old ycoman behind me; “there ain’ta
likelier young feller any wheres hereabout
than Je'mmy Brun; au’ though Minnie be
party as a pink, it’s'a good match, I say—a.
real even bargain—so.”
Long, long months went by after the mar-
riage—tedious, unhappy months to me. I
knew I was being soured by this sclf-imposied
restraint on the affectional of my nature.—
Minnie came to her old home sometimes.—
Once or twice she begged for the return of
the old love, the Old hoinerkiss. No. My
daughter was happy in hwhwllahdi,hpppy' in
her new home. But I midrmr'y'plainly that
the bliss of the old homewns-lOst to her.
Nearly two years went back into the past,
shadowed in this manner, when alittle hu-
man blossom was laid in its cradle. A little,
M
struggling wee thing-:another little Minnie. .

Poor me! Here was a new influence to ho ,
stemmed, as boats stem another gust. and ‘
another wave. But- I braced myself; and
when I had been forced into Minnie’s cham-
ber, stood over the pale child with the little
one on her arm, and heard the faint voice
add to the sweetly-beseeching look, “Do kiss
me, father 1” I shook my head and wentlout.
One day a. strange change came over the
young mother, alarming the experienced, .
and giving to the physician that omin-
ous air of grave mystery which strikes into
the soul of the loving. I moved about full of
fear and guilty distress. The symptoms be-
came more and more alarming—she was sink-
ing. I was called to her bedside, as to that' ' '
of my first . dying child. As I bent over the
white face, almost gransluceut with weakness
illumined by eyes all undimmed by illness,
my Minnie gave me the old-time glance of
love, and, throwing up her hands, as if to
clasp my neck, said, faintly, but oh! so ear-
nestly,
“Kiss me, father!”
I bent down to my daughter, my first-bom
and we wept long together—the strong fath-
er and the faintly breathing child.
What do yOu think my Minnie did? Why
she got well again, and in two months was
as musical as a lark, and as gay, looking after
the little Minnie like a pretty mother as she
was. .
However, the ice was fairly broken, and I
was my old fatherly self ever after. Minnie
even ventured, after a time, to make mer-
ry at my expense, over the fact that not
only was J emmy Brun the best of husbands,
but one of the well known of American
writers.
I think] was a very great fool.

As soon as I heal of his arrive in toun I
