'A rittc'n in an album by a Pittsburgh prin ter, published now for the first time. Its beau t.V needs im eomui'.’uduti-ui from us. [Editor Loi.'Ure Hours. 1 envy time, thou blissful deal, I envy thy repose : fby oof,, thy swiet lorgotfulness of earth, and all its wile* ; I envy thee the silent tomb, the soft embrace of dentil ; I'ur tlnm’rt beyond the world’* cold care, its foil, infectious breath ; Misf-rUmo i rags no more her t-mal across thy pallid br ‘<v ; No silent care cun feed despair, within thy bosom i.ow. 1 love lo pause where si ten the dead ; I lo\* the oruve-yard’s gloom ; And gladly would 1 take the spade, and fash ion out iiiv tomb ; I'd place upon my limbs the shroud, anil free ly close my eyes. Would death in yielding pity come, and claim in mo a prize. Have I on this broad earth a friend? Great God, I a-k of Thee! Is there a heart that wynld impart a sigh or tear for me ? % I'm sitting in a grave-yard now; ’tis there these lines 1 pen ; 1 lov* the spot, I court the spot, more than the haunts of inei; Be-ide me two small children stand, with each a tearful eye : They’ve come to deck the graves with flowers, where both their parents lie. t kissed them both, and dropt a tear upon each spotless brow ; They sinned and said, ’'When you are d*ad, we’ll come with flowers as now.” How long in this unfeeling world am I con demned to stay, Repining o’er my weary lot, as hour drives hour away ? llow long shall memory, in my mind, her mournful pictures draw. And hover round those blissful scenes wh’ch life’s young morning saw? O, for the home that once I had, the fr ends that once I knew ! The woodland shade through which I strays l ', as childhood onward dew 1 My home, niv only early home, how much I love tints yet! * And never will my loving heart thy blissful new* forget; For sympathy, and tenderness, and anxious love was there ; And all that ln-d' •'•’* holiest wish could gath er into prayer-, But now, when loneliness of night veiia earth and sky, and sen. No happy tone savs, “weleotno home,” no smile awakes f>r me. Human Brotherhood. The monarch glittering with the pomp of State. AY eats the same flesh as those who die of hunger ; Lika them, thi worm shall be the loathsome mate, When he resigns his glory to a younger. The beauty worshiped by the limnor’s eye, On whom a hundred suitors gaze admiring, Is sister to the hag, deformed, awry, AVho gather in the Mad her scanty filing. The scholar, glorying in the stamp of mind, Master of all the wisdom time hath hoarded. Is brother to the lumpish, untaught hind, AVhose vulgar name shall perish unrecorded. Therefore, let human sympathies be strong, Let each man share his welfaie with his neighbors : To the whole race heaven’s bounteous gifts be lotig; None may live idly while his fellow labors. Stcxs or the Times. —A great many people are very bilious these day*. People receive little communications from business men of their'acquaintance containing memoranda in connection with certain kinds of beef or yards of cloth, or various kinds of groceries. These items are very symmetrically and com pactly arranged, in tabular form, on nicely ruled paper. The two cent stamp which usu ally adorns the envelope contains the severe Old Hickory Jackson which s»ems to say ‘Pay or ohight.’ A — 'o' AVnv Biti. lock can Check To one familiar with the form necessary for drawing money from the Treasury, it would appear strange that a sharp fellow like the Express man should check on the State funds without some sort of authority. AVe find by recurring to the journal of the last session that by a res olution passed to secure their nine dollars per diem the members gave the Governor authori ty to cheek dircetly on the Treasurer without passing a warrant through tho Comptroller’s office ns is customary. In their hot haste to get pay. they broke down every barrier between the Governor and the money box.—[Eatonton Press. The saw is an instrument of very ancient origin. It is mentioned in the book of Isaiah at a period contemporaneous with the building of Rome. It is represented on the obelisks of Egypt, and was in use among Egyptians a thousand years before the days of Isaiah. The old gunboat Harriet Lane, which was captured by tbe Confederates at Galveston, is now lying at Gibson’s wharf, East Boston.— Sho haS been fitted handsomely as a bark, and is goit'o thu west coast of South America. From tho X. A . Pumoorat. President Johnson, In a few days the last of Presidents of the United States, in accordance with, and agree ing to tho Constitution of the country, will have vacated the Executive chair, and tho des tinies of America will pass into the hands of its first Dictator, Aided undSmoked in his efforts for power for hitmelf mid plunder for his minions, by n parliament of thieves, rob bers, land grabbers, plunderers, extravagant aristocrats, tools of tyranny, and fit agents for the bonded slaveholders of tho land, it is with a fooling of sadness wo look upon the future of this country. It is m feeling of dread for the peace, prosperity, and good namo < f America that we lament the day i K so near when the. last of our constitutional Presidents, or Presidents who believe in the Constitution, and faithfully endeavor to uphold it, shall he compelled in obedience to laws madu by the people, ami respected by him, to leave the chair of State in tlx* hands of a man who has no Hilicy, no aim. no ambition other than to please a few men who are his keepers. AYodid not vote that Andrew Johnson should be President. On the contrary, we voted against him, worked against him, spent money against his election, did all in our power openly, earnestly, and honestly to de feat him. Not because he was Andrew John son, but because he was the candidate of a very, bad, selfish, wicked unprincipled party. But we hav« learned to respect Mr. Johnson ; to look upon him as a statesman and a lover of his country. AVe have learned to admire him as a President. Our sympathies have gone out toward him from day to day, ns we have seen him struggling with fearful odds, shield ing the last remuants of the Constitution and liberties of the people, only by most wonder ful determination, tenacity and regard forcin stitutional obligations, that the laws might live though h« might die. AVe have learned to respect him for he has shown himself wor thy of respect. AVe have learned to regard ' him as the upholder of liberty, the law, and the Constitution, for ho has proven himself worthy the confidence es every man who loves the right and hates the wrong. As he has defended the Constitution, others have made war upon him. As he has endeavored to pro tect the States bleeding at thj feet of powe-, others, by illegal enactments and unjust laws, have shorn him of all power to protect, till ho stands-Mi the political world a monument of lictier days, proud, erect, and upright, as he has been devoted to liberty, a pattern for other statesmen to emulate, a most terrible shame upon those who, in warring upon him, hav* warred upon the rights and interest of the peo ple who elected them to serve rather than roll them. AN'hon Johnson go:-*, the Constitution goes with him. On the fourth of March, when lie leaves the AVliita Ilousa, the last of the Pres idents leave ; the first of tlio Dictators enters. There will be no more Presidents in this country till tin- Democratic party conies into power, and elects men of boldness, pluck, earnestness, and decision of character, and regardful constitutional obligations—men who will care more for the pcoplo than for a select few who now boast their ability to rob the people of their earning* and States of their rights at every whim and pleasuro. AVe blame Johnson for a few things. AVe blame him for ever having to do with that party of thieves nnd tyrants who break men they cannot bend. AVe blame him for not, when once he had the opportunity, breaking the egg before the serpent was hatched, which has coiled itself about the throat of the Exec utive, deprived hint of power to protect the weak, or punish those who offend the laws. We blame him for not declaring Congress a bod'’ of conspirators long since, and immuring them in some of the prison ships of the coun try or blowing them into the air. AVe blame him for not taking the power from Congicss, by force if necessary, nnd holding it in the hands of an honest man, rather than suffer it to he taken from him for the benefit of dishon est men. But we have more to respect than blame him fur, hut trust the State of Tennessee will at its earliest opportunity, make him Governor, or return him to AVashington to look after hen interests. There is life in Andrew Johnson vet. The day is coming when he will have it in his power to settle with very many of his enemies either directly, or by the aid, efforts, or interposition of men who, like him, love tlicir country. llahd Terms.—The Louisville Courier-Jour nal says, and very truthfully, that every indi cation that nny man gives of a desire to estab lish true harmony and brotherhood between the North and the South, is construed by the Radical party as n sign of treason. To be con sidered loyal to tbe country a man must hate one half of it. To bring about the fraternity of the two sections, a iiery gulf of vengeance must be placed between them. Radicalism is in polities what devil-worship i« in religion. Our Rich Boy Lives I Young Soars, the “richest boy in Ameirica,’’ as stated by the papers, whose father lately died leaving him untold millions present nnd prospective, was killed while coasting with other lads during play hours at the school vrhero he was a pupil. Our “ richest boy,” the poor youth without a dollar who is strug gling like a hero to riso in the world and set a good example for other boys—to be a man and a good one ; the boy who loves his mother, his sister, his weak playmates; who has a kind word for those poorer than himself*, is still liv ing and will be heard 1 of and from long aftor all the richest boys irv America- are dead and i forgotten.— Brick. AA Ity Don't they Adjourn ll<w**e ? This is what we hear from almost every limn we meet ; what we see in nearly all of our exchanges ; and if our Legislators regarded the voice of the people they would see that they are almost unanimously in favor of their adjourning and gding home to look after their own business, if tiiey hnvo any. There are many very good and substantial reasons why tii«“y should adopt this course and act upon this advice of their constituents. Ist. If Congress should decide that tho Legislature, under its presont organization, is an illegal body, all that they do will be de clared illegal. 2nd, ls tho Legislature should adjourn, Congress having many very important ques tions before them, would probably let the Georgia matter slido into the next administra tion, when perhaps, wc might get terms. But as long as the Legislature keeps in ses sion they keep agitating the subject, and keep up a continued irritation, so that if Congress were disposed to igmiwi them and let them alone, the Legislature would not let them ; and lost, though not least, if they stay in session much longer, they and the Governor will bankrupt the State. The public expenditures are enormous beyond all precedent, nnd the people sre crushed dowrf with taxes. If tho Legislature regard their own credit and the credit of the State, they had better put such barriers around the Treasury ns will prevent the Governor from selling any more of the State bonds, and appropriating the money him" self, or from running the State in debt to get money to pay any more Kimballs, and then adjourn to meet in Milledgovillo wl.* i they do meet; for as sure as the sun rises and sets, so sure will the people demand that tbe Capitol shall be brought back to tbe oentr* Os tb# State.—[Fed. Uuion. Richer than the North. The N. Y. Express thinks that tho Sotith; thanks to 2,500,000 bales of cotton ruised this year—and wc add, plenty of provisions, also— is richer to-day than any other section of the country. Two and a half million bales of cot ton, at $150,000,000, gives the South the power to command its share of the currency, as the cotton crop is one which finds its principal market abroad, and prevents an unnecessary exportation of coin. Such a fact is a most auspicious one for the South, and will at once have its influence on capital and population, which it invites to the South, It enables cus tomers in the South, who were last year unable to buy, to purchase freely during tho present and coining season, and this is done just now, very largely in that city. Indeed, tho bulk of orders in the city are from the Southern States, and the South being nearly bare of goods, we are happy to say they are very considerable in numbers.— Ex. Paste That Will Keep a Year. One of our exchanges gives the following recipe for making paste : Dissolve a tcaspoonful of alum in a quart of warm water. AVhen cold, stir in as matin flour as will givo it the consistency of thick cream, he particular to beat up all the lumps, stir in as much powdered rosin us will stand on a dime, and throw in a dozen cloves to give a pleasant odor. Have on the fire a teacupful of boiling water, pour the flour mixture into it, stirring well all the time. In a few minutes it will be of a consistency of mush. Pour it into mi earthen of ciiina vessel; let it cool; lay a cover on, and put it in a cool place.— When needed for use, take out a portion and soften it with warm water. Paste thus made will last twelve months. It is better than gum as it does not gloss tho paper, and can bo writ ten upon. A Fun’ny Legislature. —The Legislature of Illinois, which recently, by way of a “joke,” coded Chicago to Itldiitnu, has passed a bill vesting all political, civil, and social power in the State in “the female portion of the popu lation above the age of sixteen years.” It is liiiule unlawful for any male over twelve years old to be out after dark, unless protected by a woman qualified to vote. This, it is supposed, is another legislative joke. Southern Securities in New York. Tho New York Herald, on Monday of last week, says ; Thsre was a firmer tone to the market for Southern securities succeeding a recovery in prices after the decline previously noticed.— Quotations are not up to the figures which they touched a few weeks ago. The market is now largely free of the speculative influences then nt work. Our reconstructed brethren were not slow to learn “ Yankee tricks” in speculation, and there i n the best reason in tho world for the belief that the bonds of several Southern States were ingeniously worked up and down the scale, to the great profit of the State au thorities. The investment demanded from Northern capitalists and corporations seems to have been satisfied, while speculative operators are temporarily attracted to the other mar ksts. free Masonry In thr'World. A is estimated by those who have some knowledge of the subject, that at present there nre in round numbers about 1,250,000 Free and Accepted Masons scattered upon the face of the globe. Os this number some 150,000 are in England. 100,000 are in Scotland, and 50,- 000 in Ireland. There are about 600,000 on tha continent of Eurojie, 300,000 in tbe United States, and 50,000 in othar parts of the wofld. In England there arc two or ffcree thousand persons initiated every year, rthirnotwithstand ing Papal allocutions and feminine denuncia tions, tho Masonic body ev'eryw'ltort is said to be increasing. VOL 4 NO. 14 Insulting a Rostouian. Not many days since, a gentleman named Brent, quite well known in art and literary circles, had occasion to visit a hook establish nient in Boston, and saw there a painting of Raphael Summes, also one of Stonewall Jack son. AV hile looking at and Admiring them, the merchant said : “You are interested in those rebels?” Mr. Brent—“ Yes, they seem to be very fine pictures. Have you any others?” “You mean of rebels T' “Yes, sir.” “Yes sir; we have pictures of the prou.x inent rebels. Keep them as a sort of curi osity.” “Ah! If you have a complete sot I should like to buy them. I am making a collection of leading rebels of the country. If your set is full I shall be very gtud to purchase.” „ “AVell, it is Tull, we have all of them.” “Davis?” “Yes, sir. very good picture of Davis.” “Gen. Johnson?” “Yea, sir. At least we have an" ongraving of Johrison, said to be very good.” “Gen. “Yes; I believe so.” “Have you Washington ?” “Oh yes." “John Hancock ?” Don’t know as wc have a painting of Han cock. Have an engraving however.” “Patrick Henry?” “AVell—no, sir ; I believe wo have nono of him.” “Thomas Jefferson?” “No painting of Jefferson. I think wo havti at) engraving; I’U see.” “John Adame?” “No | we have no painting or engraving of Adams.” “General AVarron?” The Bostonian says, scratching hie head; “Warren?" “Warren?” Warren?" “Yes, sir. General Warren, who fell at Bunker Uill." “No, sir. AVe have no picture of him.” “I understood you to say that you had the rebels complete. Very sorry your list is so imperfect, for I have loug been anxious to ob tain pictures of all the prominent rebels— lovers of their country, who dared fight for the rights of the poople. A partial list is not wliut I want. I will not take any of the pic tures this morning. Good day.” The last soen of the Boston merchant, hs was flattening his uose against a pane of glass, watching tbe retreating form of his anticipated customer, taking in his dimensions. —j —•- -<«>*--- mi Grises.—Let no one flatter him or herself that life can be without grief*. AVho ever saw a piece—a tissue that had not some dark threads? The only white robes we shall ever wear will be the white robes of heaven, when we shall be transfigured in the presence of the Lamb. I know not why it is so. Ido not pretend to know. Ido not think others know any better than I why sorrows come, and great griefs weigh down the soul, or seize it and rend it like pack thread, or cast it upon a bod or a rack of torment. These pungencies that, pierce us so somotimes—what strange stuff they are made of. Out of what unexpected material they are wrought. Our best and no blest deeds, our divinest thought* and actions, our purest and most hallowed affections ouT most beautiful and blessed tilings—out of these shall come threads of darkness and webs of shadows to be woven into tho woof of life.— Out of theso shall come drops to poison life’s' sweetest cups, distilled by slander's tongue. ; Out of these shall spring teeth to bite like a serpent, and sting like an addor, when the wicked persecute,aud malice has a work of doath to do. Senator 11m.i., op Georgia. —Joshua Hill was a Union man, not only before the Union was destroyed, but after secession had become a fact. In the long war that followed secession' his sympathies were against his own people his prayer ascended daily to heaven fur the triumph of the Northern arms ; and he looked and hoped for the final subjugation of his fel low citizens of Georgia and the South. He,' perhaps, counted the chances ; and, thinking the Northern numbers would win, looked for ward to the end for offices and honors nnd trust and confidence. The end came, and aft«* a little while Mr. Hill’s reward eame, too. lie wa* sent to the Senate. Instead of being re ceived with open arms by Northern Senators and welcomed as the one man who had not gone astray, he is kicked contemptuously from them. —Selma Times. The Soutii Again Hkksble.— The Metro*' politan Record, after a cheerful review of the now very promising commercial situation at the South, comes to the conclusion that three million bales of cotton this year will put the quietus on Radicalism, ur.ll Wind 1 up tho whole machinery of reconstruction. *' The spirit of trade, we rtFe reniinded, is an obsequious oho, and worships success. Lst the South raise throe million bales of oottoiY this year, and the very men who called loudest 1 for the enforcement of the reconstruction policy will solemnly disclaim over having been thd* enemy of its people.” ■ •• «»► ■■ <^- Mft“k D.
