BY FANNIE DOWNING, They have tern off the crown from her beauti ful brow, Yet sho never seemed half so majestic ns now, When she stands in the strength of her borrow sublime, . As she ever stood—noblest and best of her time I They have wiped from the roll of their country her name, Co-ex latent with glory, co-equal with fame; On the record of time it will gladly enduro As unchangeably bright as her honor is pure. They have stolen her crest, which for ages has blazed, And the motto slie loves from the. surface erased, _ “ _ But vain is their malice, nnd futile their art, For the seal of Virginia is stamped on the heart t Sic Semi'ek Tyrannis! We will whisper it low, While the hearts in our bosoms cxultinlgy glow As we think of the time, in its sure coming course, We will prove it by deeds with a tcrriblo force. Not the we of this age ! We shall pass from our pain Ere the bonds of Virginia are sundered in twain; Yet the day when her children shall free her shall dawn Just as surely ns earth in her orbit rolls on ! On her regal White shoulders they press down their yoke, But her mind is unfettered, her spirit nnbroke; A woman, sore weakened, her form they con trol, But the points of their arrows turn blunt on her soul 1 Like the vultures, they swoop in a clamorous swarm, And their talons imprint in her delicate form ; Her rich treasures they covet, yet blacken and blot As they’re parting her garments, and easting the lot! As the Jews loved the Romans that horrible night, When the Sliechinah took from the temple its flight: As the Poles love the Cossack, and Greeks love the Turk ; We Virginians love those who have compassed this work ! Yes, we love them ! as Antony, righteous in wrath, Loved Brutus, the murd’rer, polluting his path, When in brazen disgrace he defiantly stood, With his hands redly reeking with Caesar’s warm blood ! Yes, we love them ! as Rachel, whose baby lay dead, Its soft body apart from its innocent head ; Stung to madness by pain, and infuriate with "hate, In the depth of her anguish, loved Herod the Great l Though our faces must wear in their presence no frown. In our souls wo despise them, nnd trample them down ; To Virginia, in chains, we exultingly cling, While we spurn them away as a leprous thing! Not the v rath of a day, o~ a season is ours ; t the white heat oi' passion it ceaselessly towers; We will keep it aglow, and its red sparks shall run Through the veins of Virginians, from mother to son! For Virginia has daughters, who stand at her side, * And her spoilers in dignified silence deride ; While serene in their strength, every feeling controlled, Into heroes the men of the future they mould I r Tis true, they are infants now, hushed on the breast, Hut we teach them a lesson no tyrant can wrest; Sic Semper Tyrannis we will sow with their prayers, Theywil) reap with rejoicing the harvest at last! To Virginia, at present the cross and the sword; Bnther future is fair in the hand of the Lord ; When Ills vengeance sweeps down in a fiery tide, She shall shine as the gold that is seven times tried! From God’s own chosen people, His arm was removed, While though Palestine Siscra raged unros proved. Till the work which the Lord had appointed had wrought. When the stars in their courses for Deborah fought! Thou Mother in Israel, Virginia, shalt wake, And thv hands of captivity captive shall take ; At thy" feet they shall bow, they shall crouch, they shall fall, With Sic Semper Tyrannis thou It trample them all! They humble Virginia 1 Just as well may they To sully the stars of Heaven’s battlements high! When they crumblo to nothing Virginia shall shine , , Eternal, immutable, glorious, divino . Their Guns Turned UroN Them. —The National Intelligencer quotes from Mr. Pier repont’s speech in the Surratt case to proto that a conspiracy to take the Presidents life is a greater crime than one against a king s life, &c., &c„ and asks the following questions; “Why should not the conspirators (Cono ver, Ashley, Butler, and Holt,) against the life of President Johnson be arrested, impris oned, tried by military commission and ignominiously executed l’’ They are making ruin in Louisiana out of sweet potatoes. Seven barrels of yield a barral of rum. (From the {savannah Republican.) General Pope's Newspaper Orders. The last military edict number 40, from Headquarters Third Military District, pub lished in yesterday’s Republican , in which instructions are sent to civil officers of every grade to publish their advertisements only in such papers as support the Reconst'uction measures of Congress, lias very naturally created a profound impression upon the pub lic mind. We are greatly astonished al the general tenor of the order, conflicting as it does so strongly with the order published a sliott time ago in regard to the freedom of the press, in which Gen. Pope took a lofty ar.d liberal ground, condemning the action Td one of his subordinates of Mobile, who ex ercised bis tyranny over a weekly Republi can journal issued in that city, in the strongest terms, and denounced the exercising of any restraint over the press or any interference wi'h its Constitutional tights. With the recollection of its previous mandate t inging in our ears—an act, too, that received, as it justly deserved, the warmest encomiums from the press of tho country—North, South, East and West, irrespective of party feelings this last is at least open to the charge of in consistency, for it contradicts, or sets aside, in the plainest terms, all that has been pro claimed from Headquarters on this subject. Candor compels us to say that we regret the appearance of this order, and for what ap pears to us tho best of reasons. We cannot but regard it as a step backwards in the great work or reconstruction. There are a great many valid objections to tho enforce ment of such orders as this, which enlight ened men of al! parties, be they Radicals or Secessionists, Republicans or Copperheads, may justly entertain without exposing them selves to the serious charge of obstructing or retaiding the reconstruction measures of Congress. An order of this kind cannot be carried into execution without great detri ment to the public interest, and much lots and inconvenience to Government, on ac count of its utter impracticability. At pres ent there are but five jou-nals in the State that do not oppose the Congressional pobey of reconstruction —the Savannah Republican , Atlanta Era , Atlanta Opinion , National Republican , Augusta, and the Griffin Union, a weekly sheet. It is impossible for this small number of papers located at such re mote points, to. reach people in (he upper section of the rt»i. hr in ‘ .cl th° citizms of any county, in sufficiently large numbers (outside of the localities in which such jour nals are published) to accomplish their mis sion, viz: the dissemination and scattering broadcast among the people of all tho new laws of the laud, military and civil. We disl.ke the order because it breathes strongly of that intolerant spirit which several of the rabid journals North and South are still foolishly revealing towards all who conscientiously differ with them on certain political questions. Attempt to conceal it who may, it is emphatically tampering with the press, and a direct inteifercnce with their legitimate business, in onr honest judgment, not sanctioned by pure justice, nor warranted by circumstances. It will bo viewed by many people as a direct tax or levy upon the trade of every anti-Congressional journal in Georgia comprising over fifty, for the purpose of supporting journals whose doctrines are so odious, and whose editors are so detested that the people refuse to sustain them in their midst. Horace Greely spoke tho truth when he refused to give any material aid to ward establishing ultra and extreme news papers in the South, asserting that “a journal which is not conducted with sufficient ability, magnanimity and discretion, while battling for the right, to induce people to take it, and to support it because of its justice, influence and enterprise, is not worth sustaining, be cause it cannot possibly achieve any good.” We have in our experience of the past twen ty five months tho best assurance that can possibly be required, of the willingness of the people of Georgia to sustain a respectable Republican journal —hence it cannot be said that the people are to-day so sullen and hos tile to the Government that they will not rea l pr subscribe to a pftper that may hones.lv differ from their views, and at the sa,ne l ’ me yield a cheerful aid to the • Government.— Any attempt on the part of the Government to force people of the South to patronize pa pers of the Brownlow School, teeming with the vilest kind of abuse against everything that is dear and sacred to them as Christian people, will end as it should, in ignominious failure. Without professing to.possess the sagaci ty or discretion ofa Roman Julius Agricol?, or the wisdom gained in the Persian schools, we dare assert that this order, by virtue of its infeasibilily and injustice will help to defeat the very cause it was intended to ad vance. We fear it will dishearten and intim idate the people who have manifested a desire to do all that they consistently could to promote the restoration of Georgia to the Union, in spite of the unsound teachings of broken down and disappointed politicians. It will be received by many as an order pro hibiting or limiting free political discussion. We are inclined to believe that this order would not have emanated from' tho 111. Q’is of this District, had it not been for the false hoods, misrepresentations and exaggerations that ate daily made to General l’ope by un scrupulous and designing politicians—hun gry patriots—modest aspirants for good fat offices. Lest some of our neighbors, with their usual magnanimity and truth, should hasten to make capital oit of this order by insinuating that vre have been instrumental in securing its passage in order to gratify personal aggrandizement,we desire to forests J any such aacusations. We are poor, have a weakness for greenbacks, and are not so in dependent that we cara nothing for the ess teem and respect of the high-minded citizms of Savannaii, the majority of whom, while differing from us politically, have never refused to accord to us that courtesy and kindness which finds its mainspring wherever there is true nobility of soul, honesty of heart and a keen appreciation of justice. But thank Heaven, our poverty is not so great, nor the sting of human avarice so strong, that we could consent to disgrace ourselves by seeking to enrich our pockels at the ex pense of sacrificing our political adversaries’ inalienable rights. We sincerely wish that every journal in Georgia could see as we do tho perils of pro longing resistance to ibe laws of Congress and could realize as wo do the great misap prehension thoy entertain regarding the real sentiments of the Northern people ; but we should disdain to resort to such measures as these to convert them, or aronso them from their hallucination, So far as our hanV'ig anything whatever to do with this or any other order, we can say that we have never, by word or deed, sought (o inlluence the passage of any order, without it was one di rectly antagonistic to this, where we denied the right of any power, civil or military, to order a free American citizen what he should and should not publish in tho columns ol his paper. Our opinions on this subject are 100 familiar with the public to require repetition here. In conclusion we must say that it is not our idea to reform, and wo believe that there is an all conquering power in truth, whose stenglh no man need doubt, and that as Milton says: “Let her and falsehood grapple ; who ever knew truth put to the worst in a free and open encounter! Hu .••.■>!) fron***# '- the best aud surest Suppression.

For who knows not that truth is strong, next to tho Almighty 1 She needs no policies nor stratagems, nor licensings to make her victorious ; those are tho shifts and the defences that error uses against her power; give her but room and do not bind her when she sleeps.” Negro Supremacy and a Counter Revolu tion —The President’s Position. [From the New York Herald.] The Radicals have blundered into a posi tion that gives the President a golden oppor tunity—a chance to redeem his administra tion —to obliterate the memory of his great errors in taking advantage of the greater errors of his enemies. He can yet convince the Radicals that in giving up impeachment, on the ground that they could have no man more suitable to their purposes in his place, they counted with only a one-sided view of the possibilities. The -country is justly alarmed at what has already become evident in tho realization of the Radical p.arty pro gram ne. It is clear that this programme means no less than negro supremacy in ten States, and the consequent division of the country on a worse basis than that which led the rebellion. We fought to free the union from party domination guided by slaveholders, and we fall under a party dom ination based on the votes of tho slaves we made free. We have set them free to make th*m our masters. We exchange a white tyranny for a black tyranny. Thi3 was not wliat the people meant when they gave lives without limit and money without stint to prosecute the war. Eveu those who desired to free the slaves would not have made them masters of the political destinies of any part of the nation ; yet something Vory nr-ar to Ibis must be the result of the policy of those Radical leaders of whom Mr, Stanton is tho type. . We degrade and adulterate the national life by introducing into it half a million ser vile, semi-brutal voters—all that the suprem acy of an arrogant and dangerous faction VOL. 2, NO 18 may be secured and made permanent. And this, indeed —this making of negro voters and driving the white men of the South from the polls—is the whole result of tho war as Radical leaders see it. But the people are awakening to the true perception of this great matter, and it needs no extreme prevision to know that the na-« tion will eventually trample under its feet every vestige of tho party that bolds such ideas, and lias led it into this false position. The plain question for Mr. John son is whether he has the courage to take the current of this national tendency and make a bold fight with Congress and the Radicals, now that they are in the wrong— to fight when he may have the people on his side, with the same spirit with which he assailed Congress when Its Acts were in har mony with the national will. If ho has, the case is plain before us. lie must make a clean sweep of all the present personnel of reconstruction. He must brush away all tho commanders, and if thero are no Generals to take their places, make some. He must not stop with Stanton even in his Cabinet, Taking thus anew departure, pursuing an honest policy of reconstruction, never loosing sight of tho real objects of the war, but break ing up utterly this mischievous attempt to secure nigger supremacy, ho will merely go before the wishes of the people, and though an attempt at impeachment would come as sure as sunrise with the assembling of Con gress, tho attitude of the nation would awe it into silence. Where ate the “American flag” patriots now ? Tho Mexicans, to seize Santa Ana, in violation of the laws of nations, literally trampled, with their feet, upou the American flag, and yet we have not beard a siugle note of wail from these leatherslunged heroes, who but just now made our country a bedlam with their hypocritical yelk The American flag may be trampled into the mud forty fathoms deep, and these flag screamers will never raise a note, unless it may somehow, redound to tho glory of negroes. “Beauti black darlings!’’— Old Guard. Southern Reconstruction. The following paragraph from a recent let ter of the lion. Ilevscbel V. Johnson to the N. Y. Tribune embodies truth which cannot be evaded: “The scheme of reconstruction offered to us professes to extend to us the right ts cbopsimr bj’ vote : It calls on us to say whether we ;Vre for jM.nst a* BPtmmwSßy such as mat scheme contemplates. When TANARUS, in the exercise of that volition, express myself as opposed to it, you and the other leading R - publicans of the North, who consider my poor opinions worthy to lo noticed, infer fhorofrom that lam disloyal, factious, and rebellions. If those who are opposed to that plan of reconstruction are thus to be branded, why call on us to choose? If we bo free to choose, is it quite consistent, charitable, and just, to denounce us because we do not choose ns the Republicans desire that we should! Aye, more than th’s; to- threaten us with perpetual disfranchisement and confiscation if we do not choose ? Is that the way to establish State governments,- “ deriving their just powers from tho consent of the govern ed ?” It is true that I am disfranchised— ram not permitted to register. But I did not know that I was, therefore not at liberty to write and speak freely to my f.llow-citi- Z3DS, without being denounced as disloyal and factious. I profess lo be loyal to the constitution and intend to be loyal to the Union, when it shall be settled that Georgia constitutes one of the States of the Union. But if loyalty means fidelity and adhesion to the Republican party, I shall never belong to it nor be loyal to it, so long as it per* sists in a course of policy which must end in the overthrow of the constitution. I have taken the oath of amnesty, and intend to keep it in good faith, in letter and in spirit- It binds me to support the constitution. That I will do to the best of my ability. It binds me to support the emancipation of the ne groes from slavery. That I intend to do, and favor their investment, by law, with every right that is consistent with every right that is consistent with their welfare, tho interest of well organized society, and the perpetu ation of government. More than this ycu would not ask of me. We may differ hon estly as to what lights are commpatiblo with these ends ; but that difference does not con stitute either of us traitors or disloyalists, in any legitimate sense of that term.” Rsnoyatin* Worn out Lands. —At > recent agricultural meeting in Boston, one of the speakers remarked that “on a tract of land, which was overrun with wood box, bri ars, and other shrubs, be turned one hundred and fifty sheep. At that time a cow could not have lived on the whole tract The sheep were kept there several years, and killed out the wild errowtb so that detract now affords good pasture for fifteen cowi." ]3oys"nev er lose anything by being civil and accommodating. It often proves to be the foundation on which their after fortune is built-
