LIMES.
frig**'*d h • Sermon Preached h ***
Mr.
BT V. BkUM CLARK.
The heroes of the world boro porn
To derate tboir praise,
And laar*l wreath*, and diadems.
And Fame's epplaus* that wide extends
Tho KIO7 of tboir doj.l
And wmring banner* klse tho an,
O'er bln who Victoria* hath won
And mode n notion ilatoo !
Onnt Julius, Lord of Anolent Romo,
Led captive kings in ehoins ;
And Macedon’s imperial son
Tho habitable world o'errun,
But what or their remains ?
Mingling with all tho millions slain
(Tho eost of their ephemeral fame),
The’ro left us but their name:.
And tales of blood and sculptured stone,
Fast orambling to decay j
And beasts of sarnge nature roam
Where once the massive gided dome
Shone bright in sunny ray.
Is human glory more than this,
A Syren’s sweet, but treacherous kiss,
That serves but for a day ?
Whore rolls the Jmriodie Nile,
On Egypt's classic ground,
The towering monumental pile,
Where ghostly monarohs strut and smile
On royal wrecks aronod,
But servos to show Ambition’s aims,
Tho’ fortune crowned, but this obtains,
Death and a mouldy mound !
But thore are heroes worthier far,
Unstained with human gore,
Who ne’er were borne on Triumph’s car,
That heralded great deeds in war,
Nor crown of empire wore ;
Yet victories they achieve, unknown
To any, save themselves alone,
And Him who went before.
No clarion of renown proolaims
Their names and moral worth ;
Nor pageantry, nor martial strains,
Nor all that wordly greatness claims
Are their’a upon the earth ;
And still their lives are more sublime,
Than warriors of illustrious line,
Or prince of royal birth !
And they are followers of the Lord,
As meek as nobly brave ;
Their battle-cry’s the Holy Word—
Their only weapon is the Sword
Os faith that Jesus gave !
In life great vyftories they win
O’er all the temptiug hosts of Sin,
And triumph o'er the grave 1
Though unrewarded here below,
Oppressed and stricken sore 5
Tho’ Satan’s messengers of woe,
Or Heaven sufferings bestow,
They love the Saviour more f
Though tribalation purified,
They shout, “Redeemer crucified !”
And God fore’er adore.
What the Radicals Propose ip a
State Convention' is not Called.—A
Radical paper, the Chicago Tribune,
thus speaks:
If the F. F. V.’s are too proud, too
high hdtded to help form a government
on a loyal basis, with universal suffrage,
the negroes are ready to take hold ot
this work. There are, besides, several
thousand white men in Virginia who
are loyal to the Government of the
United States, and will cheerfully go to
work and organize as soon as Congress
gives them the word. With the help of
the negroes they will have no trouble
either in organizing a government or in
maintaining the supremacy of the loyal
population,
We hope the next Congress will
promptly supply the omission of its
predecessor by directing an immediate
organization in all the insurrectionary
States. If the ex-slaveholders prefer to
stand aloof and allow the loyal whites
oud negroes to form a government for
them, we do not know of a single good
reason why they should not have their
own way. But with them or without
them loyal civil governments should be
formed at once.”
Another Warning.— When the hour
of acceptance is past, they are with
drawn, and harsher and severer ones are
imposed. Thus has it been .from the
commencement of the contest, and thus
it will be till the close of it. If the
terms of the Blaine amendment are re
jected, one does not need to be a pro
phet or the son of a prophet to foretell
the result. A President will be elected
to execute the will of a loyal people.
Then the South will find that the little
finger of the Fortieth Congress will be
larger than the loins of the Thirty ninth.
Its governments will be demolished, the
rebels will all be disfranchised, and the
negroes will be all enfranchised.
Whether such terras would be agreeable
or not, we leave for them to say. We
warn them of the consequences of
obstinacy, and with that warning we
wash our hands of the whole matter.
The act is theirs, and upon the heads
of them and their children be the con
sequences.—Baltimore American.
An Inquirt.— An honest but nnso l
phisticated German, who is a diligent
searcher after truth, made the following
pertinent inquiry of a friend;
“Vat is dat leedle games when all
der fellers sets round mitder tables, and
buttons on pasteboard carts mit finggers
on ’em, and don’t say some dings al
ready, and don, by and-by, one feller
says “Geno,” nnd den all dem udder
fellers says “Oh I bell!”
A Loud Town.— The Memphis Ava
lanche says: “Memphis has the best
hotels, the finest livery stables, the pret
tiest and best managed theatres, the
finest looking men, and the roost beau
tiful women. Her prestige is greater
than any city in The South or West.
And we reiterate that figures will t c-ove
that Memphis has advanced with more
rapid strides than any city in the Uuited
States.”
—The Wamautte, Mass., mule-spin
ners are unanimous in refusing to go to
work at the old rates of wages and hours
of labor, and as nothing can be done
without them the mills will have to re
main idle. Workmen that had arrived
from New Bedford from other cities
were persuaded to go back, and the
bosses are still helpless tor want for
hands.
—General Howard has ordered Bean
moot. Chief of the Memphis municipal
Police, to be prosecuted for arresting
negroes and hiring them to planters for
stipulated sums. Report says he ar
rested many negroes, and then released
them from jail without any trial by
hiring them to Dlanters for sums of
money varying from ten to fifteen dol
lars.
—The Lower Honse of the Missouri
Legislature passed a bill te amend the
Constitution so as to allow negroes to
vote—yeas 7C, nays 46. ,
