[communicated ] Mother’s Lament npon seeing her Hus band Cast into the Sea. Henceforth the ocean is my home - My song its voice, in calm and storm. One thing I ask amid its gems, ’Tis only that pale sleeping form. Argosies may lie rotting there, The wealth of empires in declay, I'd leave them in the heaving sea, And fondly bear that prize away. I'd walk thy waters dny and night, And on my brow the sea-weed wear ; I’d mourn an exile, in thy waste, And wander with the storm-bird there. Oh ! Thou, who dost the whirlwind guide, And mark each pebble on the sea, Stretch forth thy hand in pity now, And bring mv husband back to me ! Or else, permit this heart tabeat, It funeral march to death no mere ; And let Its mouldering ashes be, But emblems of the grief it bore. By him. to whom I gave my heart— Oh 1 let my form in ocean lie, Until the trump shall wake us up, And we together mount the sky. She whispers to the tide her heart, As oft she wanders on the shore; Each ripple does a message taka To him whom she can see no more. No lines record his resting place— Unmarked the spot where honor sleeps; His funeral dirge shall still be beard Whene'er the heaving billow sweeps. The wave shall be his monument; The ocean shell his glory keeps, And angels bright shall linger oft Where that devoted mother weeps. No grave was dug, no song was sung ; Few mourners gathered round his bier: He sleeps where mermaids walk the sea, His only epitaph a tear. Pete. [communicated.] Sixteen and Sixty-five. The Young Men’s Democratic Club of this city was addressed on Monday evening last, by Dr. B. M. Clarke and W. A. Le Sueur, Agreeably to appointment.

He referred to the homestead act., upd told the freed people that it applied to all debts, contracts, etc., and that they will pay no debts and give no share of the crops to the owners of the land, as the bill exempted them from all debts and contracts. He warned them against all white people, “no matter if they wore a blue coat” (I quote his language,) as they were their enemies; that the issue had been made in the Legislature, and that the liae had already been drawn, “let no white man be trusted.” At a meeting called a few days ago (I don’t knaw by what authority) they march ed there in companies and with their arms. I believe this meeting was called for the purpose of nominating Justices or the Peace and Constables. A man named Smith, who has been very officious in hav ing the different companies drilled—I be lieve he is from Walterboro—received the nomination of Magistrate. The counte nance of this men is villainous, aud he is as ignorant as he is rascally. Now I will state that there is no occasion to raise companies to keep down the white peo ple, as they arc as peaceable and quiet as any people in the United States, taking no particular interest in the political ques tious of the day, subdued as possible, and the caterpiller has made them more so.— I think most of the freed people, if left alone, and not seduced by such men as Johnson and Smith, would be peaceable and law-abiding.

Gretna, La., Fired by Negroes—Two Squares Laid in Ashes. [From the New Orleans Times.] Some two weeks since, a negro named Sandy Packer, a slave foimerly owned by Mr. P. V. Labarre. made a political speech at Gretna. In that speech, which was filled with menaces. Packer stated that the only way for the Radi cals to hope to succeed was to apply the torch. We do not know how close may be the connec tion betweeu this infamous threat and the fire that took place at Gretna yesterday morning. We report the menace of Packer, and allow our rentiers to form their own judgment.

From the Macon Telegraph. Colored State Convention. Yesterday at 12 o’clock, the Colored Convention, called by the Legislature, met in the City Hall. H. M. Turner, the President of the As sociation, who issued the call for this as semblage, arose, called the house to order, and requested the Secretary, James Porter, to read the call for the Convention as it had been published. This done, J. M. Simms moved that Hon. H. M. Turner act as. temporary Chairman, which .motion was carried. He again moved that (Ion. James Por ter act as Secretary, which prevailed. Rev. N. L. Houston was then requested, by the Chairman, to invoke Divine, sanc tion upon their proceedings, which he did in a most impressive and eloquent man ner. • j;,- Mr. Simms moved for a Committee of seven on Credentials, which passed. A motion was then offered.that the Con vention adjourn till 2 o’clock, p. M., to the Committee. Pending the adoption of this resolution, the Chairman stated that,while he was glad to see a large number of visitors, he hoped they would keep the best of order. They were there to discharge a duty, that no honest man, white or colored, could ob ject to. He was willing for the world to hear and see everything said or done.
