sbt fails frcss City Printer—Official Paper lAMKBT CITY CiaC VLATION TUESDAY MORNING. M«wh It IBg nv [r«ri«D*ttT fuit] 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. , 190 BROAD (REIT. 100 £)RY GOODS *JRESS GOODS, MILLINERY, BONNETS, HATS .
