MASON & CO„ 111 Bay street. Savannah, Gewgia. LIGHT. U KN.Uft ANT. In the galaxy of heroes wliieh the closing year of the rebellion has placed high In orb, General Grant is the blight particular star. Without any disparagement to his gallant comrades, lie is acknowledged to be the greatest iu the group. Whatever particular ly good qualities they have individually been found to possess, he appears to have concen trated in himself. So complete is bis char acter that it is admitted to be quite without defect. He has required no defence at any time, for he has done nothing wrong, and to heap eulogies upon him is equally unneces sary, for his career is his best eulogy. It is “a solid fabric, and will support the iauiels that adorn it.” W hen military men permit 'themselves to be taken up by political parties, and furnish their presses with their principal aliment, it is always to be feared that they have been led astray by a false ambition, or have been manipulated while under the inhuence of selfishness. General Grant stands aloof from all such influences aud their dangers; beyond their reach and beyond their power, he shines by the contrast of disinterestedness, and gains our esteem by the purity of his motives and the strength of his principles. Envy, which often assails the best, leaves him alone, and no one dares question his patriot ism or lira very, his skill, his modesty, his disinterestedness. Ids firmness or his success. To him is universally attributed the final triumph of our arms, the result of strategy the most skilful, combinations the largest and most overwhelming, and courage, persistent, self-reliant and dauntless, lie has never been obliged to explain away any mistakes or to remove any misapprehensions; to ac count for any disasters, to make any apolo gies, or appeal to his countrymen for a rever sal of their opinions. His profound, his al most infallible judgment has lifted him above the errors of popular generals, who are 100 apt to be thinking of the public when their business is only with the enemy. Thus we fiud him on his own pedestal in the full pro portions of a wise, great and successful man. Not the least of his merits is his unpretend ing demeanor. At no momeut, on no occa sion has he ever betrayed any'persoual vani ty, or any exhilaration iu successes which would have turned the heads of most com manders. Not a word from his lips, not a line from his pen has ever been out of time, out of place, or out of character. However others may have erred in this way, he never has. Whether as a subordinate and in the con duct <>f isolated campaigns, or at the head of the whole army and directing its entire move ments —teticent, modest, thoughtful, dis creet ; the wise man who says little and does much; of ‘‘imagination all compact,” he has pursued au uubroken career of triumph without having had to repair a single error. Not only may we therefore place him as the foremost among our military meu—and this itself is praise in the extreme—but we may ateo claim for him an equal, perhaps the highest, place among ail the generals of modern times. If we consider the vastness of the fields on which this war has been waged, the immense number of men engaged in it, the enormous amount of mat end em ployed and the loss of life incurred, we are led irresistably to the conclusion that even the most celebrated European wars have, comparatively, been but forays and skir mishes. Thus we may, with perfect propriety, as sert that tlie tactics of Gen. Grant have been often as grand as those of the First Napoleon, his marches as bold, his combinations as sub tle and original, his battles as fierce and as decisive, and his conquest of territory as vast and as frequent. In the capture of posts deemed impregnable, and of prisoners, artil lery and munitions of war iu numbers un precedented, the comparison is really to the advantage of our modest hero. To go fur thcr back, he reminds us of some of the most famous of the more historic commanders in many remarkable particulars. Like Prince Eugene in the Tyrol, he could make his way through the most difficult aud well defended passes of the Tennessee, and, like him, drive his foe before him from field to field; or like the famous Lord Peterboro, whose sententious remarks wou -him as much ap plause as his battles, he has successfully overrun and occupied, as did the English gen eral in the Spanisli war, State after Slate, in spite of all opposition, and at the same time enabled a co-operating force at a distance to make splendid and triumphant matches, and win the greatest triumphs with the least loss of life. Like Marlboro, in set battle, Grant has been equally successful, after as hotly contested fields as Blenheim or Ramillies, and like Wellington, in bis last triumphant march upon his enemy’s capital, after more deadly combats and with greater resistances, he has closed up a war by its capture, and that of the chief who had thence directed aud continued the struggle. So that we may fairly claim for General Grant that he has been proved to combine in himself the high est qualities of all these commanders, with out the faults of any of them. And as the work he has accomplished exceeds in mag nitude and consequences any they ever were engaged iu, we may place him on the highest pedestal in the same temple of fame.— These .European contests were, one and all, contests tor' dynasties or personal objects ,- while the campaigns of Grant have been for liberty, and in fact for mankind ; He has been indeed the man of tbe times ; born for them, and equal to them. It is uo common foe he has conquered, no ordinary war he has fin ished. no trifling cause he has maintained. His genius, discovered in time by the late President, and left unfettered to exert itself, proved by its “short, sharp and decisive ’ strokes that it was of the most brilliant order, equal to the most superb combinations, and sure to be followed by the most complete success. We are almost too near and too mixed up with these great events to give them their true outlines or understand their great proportions. The Europeans, at q. greater distance, are beginning to know them as in the great political perspective they see the effect upon themselves. And when, by and by, some other Marshall or Motley shall arise to draw the character andjjortray tbe conduct of a hero, he .will set his canvass for the portujit of Lieutenant General Grant.— New York Herald.

I've Hived her lang and weel, mither, And thou my love hast known ,- Then lay thy hand updn me, mither, And bless thy kneeling son." li. “ Ah, Willie, how my heart o’erflows Wluti thus I hear thee speak ; My tears are glistening on thy hair, And dropping on thy cheek; And oh 1 how memory calls up now The days of auld lang syne, When Ia winsome bride first called Thy sainted father, mine. in. "Ye look sae like him, Willie dear, Ye look sae like him now ; Ye hae the same dark, tender e’en, The same broad, noble brow; And sic a smile was on his face When he that morning came To bring awa’, as ye maun do, A lassie to his hame. tv. “Pair child, her heart is beating now As it never beat before; Pair child. I ken her hazel e’en Wi’ tears arc running o’er. She laves thee, Willie, but she feels To wed’s a solemn thing— I weel remember how I felt When looking on the Ring. v. “I weel remember, too, the hour When, wi' a heavy sigh, I turned, a wife, sac young and sad, To hid them a 'good bye; The tears were runuiug then, I know, For I luved my kiudred weel, And thongh-my ain was by my side, I could hr' help but feel. VI. "And then how kind he took ray hand, And gently « hispered, ‘ Gome, The same soft star shines o'er my cot That shines above thy home.” And, Willie, often, since he’s dead I've watched that distant star, And thought I saw iiis gentle face Shine in it from aiar. VII. , ■ -J* “ We luved ilk ither weel, Willie, We laved ilk ither lang f- Ah, mn! how happy was the heart That thrilled the even sang; We luved ilk ither, Willie, right: And may God grant It so, That ye maun lave as we have luved, In days lang, lang ago. VIII. “Oh! fondly cherish her, Willie, She is sae young and fair; She has not known a single cloud, Or felt a single care. Then, if a cold world’s storm should come Thy way to overcast, Oh, ever stand, (thou ajt a man}, Between her and the blast. IX. “ When first I knew a mither’s pride, ’Twas when I gazed on thee, Aud when my ither flowers died, Thy smile was left to me; And I can scarce believe it true, So late thy life bcgAi, The playful bairn I fondled then, , Stands by me now, a man. x. Then tell thy bonnie bride, Willie, She has my first born son; I tak’ the darling from my arms And gie him to her own; Oh, she will cheriilh thee, Willie, For when I maun do part, She, only she, will then be left To fill thy lonely heart. XI. • “ I dinna fear to die, Willie, — - 1 even wish to gang The soft green mound in yon kirk-yard Has lonely been too lang; And I would lay me there, Willie, And a' death’s terror brave, Beside the heart sae leal and true. If’t is within the grave. xii. " Then gang awa’, my blessed bairn, And bring thy gentle dove, And dinna frown if a’ should greet To part wi’ her they love, But if a tear fills up her ee, > Then whisper, as they part, 4 There’s room for thee at mither's health— There’s room in mither’s heart. • XIII. 44 And may the God that reigns above, And seea thee a’ the while, Look down upon your plighted troth And bless you wi’ his smile. And may’st thou ne’er forget, Willie, In a’ thy future life. To serve the Power that gave to thee Thy happy, guileless wife.” (Starting Up. —The Lowell News says the manufacturing companies there are generally making preparations to start up a large por ti mos their works.
