In il :t Dream ? [The following beautiful and manly stanzas were, in part,, published some lime since in a paper in Albany, New York, of vvhielt city, snys t lie Louis ville Courier, the gifted author is a citizen. They have sinee been revised and added to, and, front tt manuscript by the author himself, we publish them In their uttractivn perfection. The skill of versifi cation is excellent, lint inferior to the vigor and no biiity of the thought. We thank the gifted author for his sympathy, and our enemies will admire, even if they have not the manhood to practice, the tnug nnuhnity so nobly advocated.] I saw a nation glorious and free, Leading a darkened world to liberty, Firs! In the van, impetuous to strike The festering chains from limb and soul alike, Far o’er the rear-ward legions .shilling gleam Her slar-ge,mned banuers. Was it but a drontu ? Her life was young, her j>oct£freeh and bold. x. r -.„„ prophetic; centuries foretold Os peace and plenty ; eloquent and vise And pure mid just jurists and statesmen rise To shape her destinies, a God-like scheme Os right triumphant. Was it but a dream ? No long, dark records of a barbarous ago Os blood and rapine, dimmed her history’s page. No feudal chieftain held her virgin soil, No conquering despot seized her for his spoil, An equal people, held the power supreme With law an order. Was it but a dream ? The latest and the uoblcst born of time, Her mission and her destiny sublime Peoples to fuse with peoples, and restore Heaven’s first design that war should rage no more, The abject, wailing nations to redeem, And band them brothers. Was it but a dream ? The teeming West—a continent—her domain, Where she sat peerless in her gentle reign, The sun, up rising from his Atlantic bed, On her broad brow his roseate honors shed, And smiled upon her when his latest beam Warmed the Pacific. Was it but a dream ? Strong was she in her frosli exuberant health, Ships, mines, fields, work shops, deluged her with wealth, New States, young empires, from the prolific stock, In vast accretions lock and interlock, By bonds of kin, faith, interest, it would seem, Welded forever. Was it but a dream ? It passed. 1 saw her ghastly, stained with blood, Pale in the somber weeds of widowhood. Her broad fields ridged and furrowed, wave on wave, War’s cruel tillage—harvest of tile grave, I saw her dungeons foul with victims teem, And lulle, wrong, greed hold sway. Was it a dream ? Her sacre-dfiaws, tier-cherished memories, Her proud traditions —all the goud and « ise Os ber best days could teach—control uo more ; Her creeds are blotted out with sears and gore, Her priests between tlie porch and altar scream, Frantic for blood. Oh, God ! is it a dream ? Hosts against hosts, who lately hand with hand Grasped kindly, now in ranks embattled stand, And bayonet thrust, and hiss of shot and shell, And shriek and groan, the tale of horror tell, Meek Savior! hear not frantic men blaspheme Who now invoke thee! Is it but a dream f Death in the field, death in the crowded camp, Death on the march, death in the bivouac dump, Death in the coll, death in gaunt famine’s clasp, Death’s victims fall too fast for sense to grasp, O’er all the blighted laud death reigns supreme And hell rejoices. Is it but a dream ¥ So horror upon horror ghastly grew ; Who talked of pity to the infuriate crew With curse and yell was silenced, till at last, The vengeful storm exhausted, blight and b'a- t, Ceased from the soil the red hot flood to•steaui; Sick with revenge we rest. Is it a dream ? Peace yet no peace, blind passion still holds sway, Malice and hate insatiate hug their prey, Greedy for plunder, drunk with lawless power, Fierce Anarchs rule the woe-begotten hour, And all that just or merciful we deem Frantic and scoffing spurn. Is it a dream ? “ Vie Vietis!” is the cry with fury fraught, Warning and prayer are scorned and sot at naught, False as cogged dice the shameful ballots cheat, Proscription, ruin, make the wreck complete, Aud omens teach us that again may stream, The blood so newly stauched. Is it a dream ? Day-star of Freedom, sinking into night, Must wo forever lose thy holy light? If we now suffer thee to set in gloom, Ours is the crime, we well deservo our doom ; God’s vqngcful thunders gather; ere they break, And shatter and destroy us, let us wake. The, negroes of this city, tired of swhmitting to the carpet-hag and scalawag masters which Radicalism had imposed ou them, with their eyes fully opened to the character and purpose of the Coons, and Silsbys, and Raxes, rs af, who have cheated them with idle promises for two years, have organized a Seymour and Blair Cltth, and a largo and commodious hall for their meetings lias been secured for their use and properly furnished.— Selma (Ala.) pajier. Speed of Wave. —A California paper relates that “the earthquake wave which followed the recent eruption in the Sandwich Islands was transmitted to the Pacific coast, and recorded on the Government self-adjusting tide gauges at San Francisco and Astoria in about five hours. On the 23d of December, 1864, a sim ilar wave was transmitted to the coast of Japan to the Golden Gate in twelve hours and thirty eight minutes. Front Hawaii to San Francisco the distance is more than two thousand miles. The impulse communicated to the waters by the eartquake shock proceeded, therefore, at the rate of 400 miles per hour, or 6| miles per minute. This fact—if it is a fact—will be of great interest to men of science. Dehocratiq 'Nomination for Congress.— At the meeting of the State Democratic Exec utive Committee in this city, yesterday, the following resolution was introduced by P. W. Alexander, Esq., and adopted. Democratic papers arc requested to copy : R< solved, That the several Congressional Districts in this State bfe recommended to hold Conventions’ as early as practicable, to nomi nate their candidates for Congress, and we suggest that the Conventions in each District be held ou the Sth day of September. Election Scene in Georgin. M o have received fcr-m a friend a photograph picture token on the spot, of nn election scene in L-t Grange, Georgia. The picture tepresents the polling place lor the negroes, at a window on the east side of the Court House. Inside, sits a bnld headed, sleek looking, eld col ired euss front Africa, with till) dignified expression of an ape stealing nea-nuts, receiving votes. In the window, his feet drawn up, his hands locked in front, is a well dressed dandy gen tleman of color, watching the black trash below hint deposit their ballots. On a dry goods box, upon which eacli Freedman must step to reach the window, sits a slab-sided. lantcrn-javved> carpet-bag candidate for the Legislature who carefully examines each ticket beforffit is pass ed in, in order to see that it is of tho right atl-iy • r 'rr.n 1- a oo.sj . r 0u,......rr_j «.«. •>.. ebony crowding to the polls for the purpose of exercising one of the glorious privileges of their newly acquired freedom (?) that of voting a ticket put into their hands by their white skinned but block hearted brethren. This election was held for the Constitutional Con vention. Our readets are aware of the result. There arc gentlemen in Ukiali now, who were present at the farco which is dignified by the title of an “election.” Election means choice, and the people of Georgia laid a choice—cer tainly ; the choice of voting as the radical reconstructionists desired, or not voting at all. This picture is a “silent sermon.” It presents asplandid commentary on the working of the system which is regenerating the South.— Democrat. Ukiali City, Cal. Beautiful Clstom in Brazil.— A Brazilian correspondent of the Missouri Republican gives the following: The person who meets w ith a sudden or a violent death in Brazil, cither by accident or murder, is buried by the wayside, near whete the event happened, and a cross is set up at the head of the grave. To this cross, as the emblem of his faith everywhere, the Brazilian lifts his hat in passing, and it is a beautiful custom of the people to hung this love memen to with flowers and garlands. 1 frequently pass such a cross near this city, where a man was murdered so long ago that but few remem ber the circumstances, yet pious and unseen hands Arc always decking the way-side cross with wreaths end roses. A Bad Lick on the Radicals in Ne w YYirk. —A special election was held last week in the town of Grafton," lleussalaer county, New York, the residence of Griswold, the Radical candidate for Governor. The Radical majori ty was reduced *0 votes on a former majority of 146. As the Radicals count heavy on Griswold’s popularity, this was an unpromis ing show for them. A similar falling off everywhere would give Seymour the State by 200,000 majority. Lincoln on Cakuet-Baggers. — We believe, Bays tiie Philadelphia Aye, the Radicals still • hold Mr. Lincoln’s notions in high esteem. — Under the impression that they would not doubt anything lie said, we commend to their notice the following opinion he held in refer ence to “carpet-baggers.” On November 21, 1802, he thus wrote to General Shepley at New Orleans : ‘;To send a parcel of Northern men here as Representatives elected, as would be understood (and perhaps really so,) at the point of the bayonet, would be disgraceful and outrageous, and were Ia member of Congress here, I would vote against ndmitting-any such man to a seat.” P. A. Cross, a negro of Cnarlottsville, Ya. would not vote for C. L. Thompson, white carpet-bagger, and Thompson presents himself at Cross’s shop to ask if it were so. Cross told him he had been correctly informed. “But said Thompson, “ that is very strange : how ean you desert your own race, Mr. Cross ?’’ Cross replied. “Will you be good enough, Mr. Thompson, to tell me how it is that you have deserted yours ?’’ True Words. I arraign the Republican party as the party of disunion. I arraign that party for breaking the Union by denying representation to ten States. I also arraign it f r being tho only party which recognizes disunion. I arraign it for needlessly keeping a standing army ia the South, at your expense, but for the potpose of making the white man subordinate to the negro. I arraign that party for turning the South into a howling wilderness. She pays not a dollar towards supporting the Govern ment ; but the North is taxed to keep there a standing army as a guard over the ghastly ruins and desolation of the South. In the name of the ovef-burdened labor of tho North —of tiie dead soldier who gave up his life for tho preservation of tiie Union—and in the name of the services and sacrifices of the Union soldiers, I arraign the Radicals for keeping the Union asunder; and for surrendering the Southern States—those vast regions of wonder ful fertility and productiveness—to the control of a race which will cover them with a blast ing and withering desolation. Yoorhees. The carpet-bag Governor of Louisiana, not withstanding he is a Jacobin, has just mani fested a spasm of sense that will do him credit. The carpet-bng legislature, desiring to get up a disturbance recently, passed a resolution calling on Gen. Grafit for additional troops for that State, supposing it would need more since “reconstructed.” This resolution the Governor vetoed, and took occasion to say to the assem bled wisdom of Louisiana that they had applied to the strong person! This made tho carpet baggers mad, and they will not pass any more such resolutions. — Ex. Artemns Ward says the only substitute for a newspaper in this country is a ladies sewing circle. Facts to be Remembered. Wo find the following in tho New York Express. It would he difficult to crowd more startling facts into the same space. The statements should not only ho read, hut the reader should preserve them for reference: Ist. That by taxes on the people, money enough has been raised since the war to pay more than half of the national debt, or a sum equal to £2,500 for every one of the negroes made voters. (715,000) in all the Southern States. 2d. In 1860 a Democratic administration left the Government debt 870,000,000. From 1861 to 1865, four years of war, the Radicals increased this debt $2,800,000,000. From 1865 to JBOR, throe years of peace, making up with four yearn of war, seven years of Radical thousand millions of dollars werso off than we were in iB6O. 3d. The navy before the war cost less than thirteen millions per year, with the shipping interests of tho country fully protected all over the globe. The average oost for the three years since the war closed is over forty mil lions per year, with our shipping interests swept from tho ocean by taxation and high tariffs. 4th. To show tho practical effect of Con gressional Reconstruction, tix earpot-baggars in the United States Senate from Florida, North Carolina «and Louisiana, will balance the united Senatoiial representation of New York, Pennsylvania and Ohio. The last can only represent an aggregate population of (in round numbers) ten millions of free Amer icans, eonstitu ting just one-third of the entire population of the Union, and owning nearly one-hall’ of the taxable property of the repub lic. Their votes are neutralized by nix “Sen ators’’ under military domination and represen ting a population of about 2,300,000, owing about ono-thirteeuth partof the taxable prop erty of the United States:" 1 Os these 2,300,000 more than one-half aro ignorant negroes, while of the remainder, constituting the American population proper, three-fourths are refused permission to participate in selecting their Federal delegates. Sth. From June to July the public debt in creased at the i ate of over $56,000,000 per month ! —over $13,000,(100 a week I —over s],- 750,000 a day ! —over $70,000 an hour ! —over SI,OOO a minute I —s2l) a second ! Another fact for ready Democratic reference. 6th. For four years the people of the United States fought secession, and put down the re [)(»]]!<-*-• YVUt the Radicals la C— p&HB turuea around, and have ever since been trying to legalize secession, and prove that it was suc cessful in taking ten States out of the Union. 7 th. The Constitution of Alabama is a negro Constitution to the extent of 57,000 negro majority. In Georgia, Florida, the Carolina-, Texas, and Virginia, where the whites had some 20,000 more registered voters than the blacks, nevertheless, owing to the chronic discontent, the vote showed a negro majority of 251,406 ! And this order of things the Radicals seek to make perpetual. i4th. In Alabama, Arkansas, Mississippi, Virginia and Louisiana, every voter mustswear that he recognizes and accepts the civil and political equality of the black and white. The Mississippi Convention numbers one hundred, of whom seventy-five are whites and only five Mississippi ans. The Congressional Carpet-baggers. The Baltimore Gazette's Washington corres pondent says not the least among the induce ments to adjourn, which controlled the action of Congress, wins the embarrassment caused by the advent of the carpet-baggers. Those gentry, “in their new suits,” must needs ex hibit themselves to the galleries by speechify ing on the floor, and the Democratic members have made themselves merry at their unique display. The other day a Mr. Dewees, (who, I learn, went South a year or two ago, and was employed by the Freedmen’s Bureau as a horse doctor—having some time eineo inven ted a specific for the hots) —rose in the House to advocate tho bill providing Springfied riflee to be furnished the Southern negroes. A Democrat, feeling, or pretending to feel, great interest in what was about to be uttered, and waggishly assuming the attitude of listening intently, without ability to hear distinctly, suggested that the gentleman from Kidder minster should ascend tho rostrum in front of« the Speaker’s desk. The fool being flattered, proceeded to do so, in spite of the vehement expostulations of the Radical leaders ; and to the infinite gratification of the audience, was taken through a delectable “course of sprouts” by Mr. Brooks, and made to confoss that “re construction” was worse than a failure, and that unless it was accompanied by the bayo net, most lead to anarchy. During his speech a dozen Radicals, before inveterately opposed to adjournment, eavod in, confessing that it would not do to “stand upon the order of going,” but to “go at once.” “Great God," said Boat well, in sotto voce, “let ns pot a stop to this." The Democrats toCarrtthe Country.— The South seems likely to go with a rush for Sey mour, and the reason is that the Republican policy Ims been made so clear by Congress and the reconstructiws that it is impossible to dis guise it, especially in the most offensive point, negro suffrage. On the other hand there is everything to hope from the Democrats, and the Southern people believe that they will have the sympathy of the leaders of that party. In all the Sontheir States we shall see *very nearly what we have just seen in Kentucky, ; and as the Democrats will certainly divide the North, there is tho highest probability that a sweeping success in tho-South will give them the country. —Xcw York Herald, Auyasl 12. YOU. 3. NO. 40 [From the Albany, N. Y. t Argus,] The Radical Party— A BriefChapler.fiom its Riktory, Would be Vice-President Colfax, in a recent speech assorts that “the history of the Repub lican party is written in the brightest pages of our country’s annals.” The following are the mfive prominent results of tho success of the radical party which now seeks by usurpa tions and military Dree to perpetuate its pow er, as stated by the New York Express: Ist. The history of the Radical party began in 1860 in a war, which extremists North and South labored to precipitate. 2d. Iu two millions of men, North and South in iw-nui, facing each other with the most destructive weapons of n arfar.o of mod ern invention. -ou. hi tne joss to North and Sautp, m^over 500,000 lives. 4th. In an expenditure of oyer four billions of dollars for the North alone—if-^00Q.000,- 000. sth. In an existing debt of two billions and a ha1f—52,500,000,000. 6th. In the heaviest taxation ever imposed upon any people in any country, under which our labor is so groaning that it can nowhere come into competition, even with taxed Germa ny, England or France. 7th. The enormous high prices upon every thing. Bth. In an irredeemable currency of mere pa|>er money, $800,000,0(30 in National Banks, which is paying the owners of them 10 to 30 per cent, per annum, and in $400,000,000 of greenbacks, not good enough even to pay duties to the custom-house, or intere«t"due the bond holders on their $2,5(X),0<X),000 of debt.

Hilliard : I confess that increasing years bring with them increasing respect for men who do not succeed in life, as those words are commonly used. Heaven is said to be a plaoe for those who have not succeeded on earth, and it is sure that celestial grace does not thrive and bloom in that hot blaze of worldly prosperity. 11l success sometimes arises from a superabun dance of qualities in themselves—from a con science too sensitive, a taste too fastidious, a 6elf-forgetfulness too romantic, a modesty too retiring.

When cold it will be fit for use. No more is required than to moisten a sponge, aud before the horse goes out of tho stable, rub his ears, neck, flanks, and suoh parts as are most irritable, with the jiquor. The remedy is simple and sure. “Oxr. oe tiie Straws.” —We observed, says the Mobile Tribune, a large United States wag on yesterday afternoon, drawn by two staunch horses, going up Royal street, in which were seated several soldiers. Behind the ears of the horses w ro fixed Seymour aud Blair flags. So we go. Blair’s word as a soldier suits these “gallant boys in blue” better than Grant’’*, the butcher of thoir comrades.— Thete is no comparison as to statesmanship between Seymour and Colfax.
