SAVANNAH, FRIDAY, MAY 18, 1866-
THE imNOUX DEAD.
liY HENRY TIMROD.
The rain is plashing on my sill,
Blit all tin's winded' Heaven are still;
And so it falls with that dull sound
Which thrills us in the church yard ground.
When the lirst spadeful drops like lead
Upon the coffin of the dead.
Beyond my streaming window pane
i cannot see the neighboring vane,
Yet from its old familiar tower
The hell comes muffled through the shower.
What strange and unsuspected link
Ot feeling touched, has made me think—
While with a vacant soul and eve
1,watch that grey and stony sky—
Qf nameless graves on battle plains
Washed l>3' a single winter’s rains,
Where, some beneath Yiginian hills,
And some by green Atlantic rills;
Home by t he waters of the West,
A myriad unknown heroes oust.
Ah ! * not the chiefs who, dying, see
Their Hags in front of victory,
Or at their life-blood’s noble cost
Bay for a battle nobly lost
claim from their monumental beds
The bitterest tears a nation sheds.
Beneath yon lonely mound—the spot
By all save.some fond few forgot—
Too the true luartys of the light
W hioh strlces for free doin' and for right.
Of them, thfcir patriot zeal and pride,
The lofty faith-f hat with theiA died,
No grateful page shall farther tell
Than that so many bravely fell;
\iol wo can only dimly guess
What worlds of all this world’s distress,
What utter woe, despair and dearth
Their fate has brought to many a hearth.
•Inst such a sky as this should weep
Above them always where they sleep ;
Yet Imply, at this very hour,
Their graves are like a lover’s bower,
Aud Nature’s self, with eyes unwet,
Oblivious of the crimson debt
To which she owes her April grace,
Laughs gaily o’er their burial place.
IN GENERAL.
— The murder of Mr. Lincoln lias been dramatized
and performed at Mulbau9en. The piece is entitled
*‘Le Vie Mort d*Abraham Lincoln,*’ and is divided
into seven tableaux. In the fourth act Mr. Jefferson
Davis appeal’s upon the scene, and gives it as his
opinion as long as Lincoln is permitted to live the
cause of the South is lost, and Exclaims, “Who will
get rid of this man for us ?** “I, “ replies his future
murderer.
—'The Chattanooga Union.- says the bridge
across the Tennessee river, at that point, re
sembles a huge snake, so irregular hag the structure
been thrown together. In some cases there is a de
cline of full eight inches to every twenty feet. The
drawbridge is entirely useless; no one attempts to
raise it for fear the whole will fall.
—A girl fourteen years old, from Buena Vista, Ohio,
named Lucrotia Conn, has been arrested at Hunts
ville in male attire, and lodged in jail. She was for a
while attached to the CCth Illinois regiment. Proper
' clothing will be furnished her aud she will be sent
home.
—A wicked editor says, that at church, some people
clasp their hands so fervently in prayer that they are
unable to get them open when the contribution box
comes around. ' ’* '
—Mrs. Tom Thumb is in England. It is said “she
is preparing for a little event that usually makes
quite a commotion in a family.” “Little event” is
good in the present instance.
-Major-General S. W. Crawford is engaged in the
preparation of a work upon the occupation, defence
and fall of Sumter, 18ti0-*til. He was an officer of
that garrison with Major Anderson.
AVhat Head Centre Stephens is Doing.
A largo number of Fenians called on Head Centre
Stephens Saturday at the Metropolitan Hotel. It lias
been ascertained from Stephens this afternoon that
lie will not remove his headquarters to Union Square
at any time.. The Head Centre spoke so emphatically
on the subject that he created the impression that ho
was not'altogether satisfied with the suggestion. It
is said he expressed himself strongly against the ex
travagance in hiring Union Square Building. It is
not known outside of the circle of the secret council
and attaches of the plaice in Union Square what the
exact amount is in the treasury. ^
A prominent Fenian stated that the whole sum bow
reserved to aid the cause of Irish liberty is less than
three hundred thousand dollars, and besides this
there are chocks for one million dollars, which are di
rected to be*paid .to O’Rourke, who can have them
cashed whenever he is required to do so. Stephens
was enlightened to-day on the state of things, when
lie had an interview with Griffin, the Treasurer. The
interview was private, but is known to have had refer
ence to the disposition of moneys received at Union
Square.
It is wel known that Mr. B. D. Killian took a lease
of the Fenian place In Union Square in his own name,
and Colonel O’Maliony and the oilier leaders antiei
pflted after the difficulty which arose out of tho expe
dition campaign fulls that Killian would eject all par
ties from, the building. Their apprehensions, how
ever, were unfounded, for Mr. Killian gave up the
lease, books, papers and other articles in his charge
to the representatives of Stephens.
Headquarters in Union Square are now closed, and
Col. Kelley, Secretary of Mr. Stephens, is in charge 01
the,building. Although Mr. Stephens is making
every effort to effect a reconciliation between the rival
sections of the Brotherhood, matters have transpired
which show that the task will be no easy one. While
seeking the co-operation of the -Roberts wing of the
the Fenians, which is at present the meet potent of
the two, he has carefully abstained from recognizing
the former Senate in its official capacity; consequently
any overture tor an adjustment of ; the difficulties can
not bo entertained by a body whose official existence
is 1 hUr denied. .
Mr. Stephens issued an order to-day calling on all
the circles in the United States to subscribe towards
the’ movement in Ireland, and to send all moneys t«»
him at his headquarters, Metropolitan Hotel.

A. Wise on Oaths.—Henry A. Wise de-
lerliire recently at the Orphan Asylum at
It is reported that he jJpoke of the tvrir as
‘•ntfiet of sovereigns, saying he was not re-
tor his act. as an individual in obeying the
v<»iee of his State. IT*; harl made no confessions and
taken no test oath; aud there was no power to make
Jinn take one. He "was no traitor, nor were thoso who
f.*uglit for 1 lie South :• nor had he taken an oath of al
legiance, for lie was no foreigner to be naturalized
A New Way tl* Catch a TAief.—A business man
111 Memphis recently detected a thief quite adroitly.
They had missed money from the till lor some days,
amounting*to $350, but could not detect the guilty
party. The cashier, a few nights since, emptied into
the drawer a cup filled with nitrate of silver. The
thief went to tlih till to mako his evening's capital,
and in abstracting the money covered his hands with
the nitrate, which he was unalfle to get off. An exam
ination of his paws in the morning proved the faux
pairs, or thief's, and the guilty party was arrested.
Slavery in Egypt.—Slavery is rapidly extending
in Egypt to meet the demands for increasing labor in
the cotton field*. The slaves are brought from the
upper Nile. .The average life of these slaves does not
exc^eed lour years, and it is estimated that three per
sons ate killed for every slave taken.

The upper surface" of the Roofing is protected, from
the action or the weather by covering it with the
ground mineral Isinglass or Mica, which is pressed
into the Water-proof Composit on, making a hard
surface, beautiful in appearance and a sore protection
against fire. The Mica being a reflector and non-con
