Gjj* Bailn srfss. City Printer —Official Paper LARGEST CITY CIRCULATION. TUESDAY MORNING J«ly 1M«« [From the Charleston Doily Now*. Our Fettered Chieftain, Jefferson Davie. BY MBS. C..A. BALL. ‘ Chief of e fallen cause 1 How the heart sickens o’er the tale of wrong Done to thy manhood in that fortress strong, Where, in the power of a ruthless foe Who sought to bring (by noble Shaokles were brought for thee. "The ihame! tie siawe/” well may that bitter ory, Wrung from thee in thy bitter agony, In trumpet tones flng through the Chris tian world; But not on lies, on them, the shame be hurled, Who wrought the indignity. On those, thine enemies, No shame is written on thy lofty brow, Fetters could not thy free soul bind or how, Nor cast a shadow on thine honored name, Nor blot the writing on the scroll of famo Whpre it so brightly glows. Discrowned indeed thou art, of power shorn j No more a chief—an old man, weak and worn; , Yet to each Southern heart now dearer far Than when thou slion'a. a bright i.spn ud ent star — A terror to thy foes. "Shetne ! ihame /” the cry resounds Where’er the deed of darkness is unrolled— Where’er throughout the world the tale is told— A nation’s heart with indignation hums. And o’er the wronged and outraged pris oner yearns With fervent sympathy. "Shame, ihame," to those who struck tho coward blow, And heaped such insult on a fallen foe; But lAou, brave spirit, who hast borne tlio wrong— THou, who has loarnt “to suffer and be strong”— Thou, whose calm fortitude in sorrow’s night * Has shed around tby name a glorious light, Disgrace falls not on thee. Our chieftain well beloved: Errors there may have boon in thy brief reign ; All are forgot in this thy time of pain. Mistakes committed in thy day of power Are blotted out in this thy suffering hour, Thou much enduring one. Brave martyr to the cause we loved so well; Worn captive, in thy lonely prison cell, No shame can rest on thee ; and in the land Where onoe it was thy glory to command. Tby itarful wrongs have made thee doubly dear, And still tby name we’ll honor and revere, ’Till sets fore’er life's sun. Charleston, July 6. Insurance.

Having secured the state RIGHT OF THE PATENT MICA ROOFING, We are now prepared to supply it in any quantity, or to appiy it to Roofs. The MICA ROOFING is adapted to build ings of every description, and can be' ap plied to Steep or Flat Roofs, or over old Shingle Roofs, without removing the shin gles. We recommend its use on Factories, Foundries, Store Houses, Cotton Sheds, Railroad Depots and upon all buildings where steam is used, and a Fire Proof re quired. It costs about one-half the price of Tin. It is cheap, durable, and is easily and quiekly applied. The upper surface of the Roofing is protected from the action of the weather, by its covering of Ground Mica, which is pressed into the water proof com position, making a hard surface of stone, beautiful in appearance, and a sure protec tion against fire. We shall also keep constantly on hand a supply of INDIA-RUBBER ROOFING PAINT, which is tho best coating that can be used for Tin Roofing. Leaky Tin Roofs can be readily repaired, so as to last many years, at a trifling cost, which would in many cases save the expense of anew Roof.
