IIY WILLIAM CULLEN BKVANT.
Hcnoatli the waning moon I walked at night,
And nmsod on human life, for all arouud
Are dim, uncertain shapes that cheat the night,
\ml pitfuls lurk in shade along the ground,
And broken gleams of brlghtntss here and
there,
Glance through and leave unwarmed the dcath-
Ulsc air.
The trampled earth returns a sound of fear—
A hollow sound, as if 1 walked on tombs ;
And lightu that tells of cheerful homos, up
pear
Far oil, and die like hope amid the gloom;
A mournful wind ..r. >-s the landscape Hies,
Ami the wide atmosphere is full of sighs.
And I, with faltering footsteps journey on.
Watching the stars that roll the hours away,
Till the faint light that guides me now is
gone,
And, like another life the glorious day j
Shall open o’er me from the empyreal height, |
With warmth, and certainty, and boundless |
light.
RELIGIOUS ROTES.
He that lias energy enough to root out
a vice should go a little further, and plant
a virtue there.
Life, according to the Arabic proverb,
is composed of two parts : that which is
past, a dream ; nnd that which is to come,
a wish.
Life is like a roll of costly material
passiug swiftly through our hands, and we
must embroider our pattern on it as _it
goes. We cannot wait to pick up a false
stitch, or pause too long before we set
another.
Professor Finney, of Oberliu, contends
that all amusements for the .Jake of amuse
meuts are indefensible, lie condemns
Sunday-school picnics and excursions as
involving a needless expenditure of the
Lord's money, and consequently sinful.
The Popo recently explained the sense
in which he considers himself to he in
captivity, He said : “ I am not a prison
er, in the ordinary sense ; no warder is in
my prison, no guards are at my gate ; but
1 am morally imprisoned, siucc it would
J>e impossible lor me to go out without
waving my person and diguity oil'ended.”
There are prospects of a stout struggle
to come in Great Britain before the Atlin
nasian creed is given up The English
Church Union recently held a spirited
session, during which members maintain
ed that the creed is the key of the citadel
of Christianity, and that the three thou
sand clerical objectors to it formed an ex
traordiuary mosaic of all sorts of opinions
and confessions.
The first ten numbers of anew relig
ious journal have been published at Milan,
Italy, apareutly under the charge of Chris
tian scholars of the moderate Protestant
school. The range of subjects is quite
large, and the last two numbers contain
articles on religious criticism, the super
natural, the Vaudois Conferences at Milan,
prehistoric science, Christian art at the
Milan Exposition, and chronology. Its
name is La, Coscienza Vristiana —“ The
Christian Conscience.”
A Friend, visiting in a minister’s fami
ly, where the parents were very strict in
regard to the children’s Sabbath deport
ment, was confidentially informed bv one
of the little girls that "she would like to
be a minister.” .
“Why ?” inquired the visitor, rather puz
zled to understand what had given the
child so sudden an admiration for that
calling.
The visitor was quickly enlightened by
the prompt reply :
"So that 1 could holler on Sunday

London papers relate curious stories of
the blunders made by Oxford undergradu
ates in the Scripture examination which
they have to pass before taking their de
grees. It is told of one that, when asked
to mention "the two instances recorded in
Scripture ef the lower animals speaking,”
the undergraduate thought for a moment,
and then replied : "Balaam’s ass.” "This
is one, sir. What is the other?” Under
graduate paused in earnest thought. At
last a gleam of recollection lit up his face
as he replied : “The whale ! The whale
said unto Johah. Almost thou persuadest
me to be a Christian 1’ ”
This House of tub Loud. —A cold or
rainy Sabbath hardly ever conies and
goes, without creating in our miud grave
doubts, whether public worship lias any
thing like the hold which is its due, on
the hearts of Christians generally. Why
else do they so lightly forego the privi
lege of appearing before Ihe Lord in His
sanctuary? A missionary to the Dakotah
Indians relates an incident, which we
crnimend to those who, by their absence,
hive helped, of late, to make many con
gregations thin ; and we would fain hope
that not their eyes only, but their con
sciences, may read it. He says : “On
one of the stormiest days last winter,
Paksiksan, a man so deformed in his legs
that I had imagined he could scarcely
walk forty rods, walked eight miles to
church. He owns a pony ; but his clothes
were so thin he was afraid to ride, lest he
should freeze.” —Christian Index.
111-Temper. —A single person of sour,
sullen temper—what a dreadful thing it is
to have one in a house! There is not
myrrh and aloes and chloride of lime
enough in the world to disinfect a single
U ime of such a nuisance as that; no
r ches, no elegance of mein, no beauty of
face can ever screen such persons from
utter vulgarity. There is one thing which
ridng persons hate the reputation of more
thin all others, and that is vulgarity;
but, trust me, ill temper is the vulgarest
thing that the lowest born and illest bred
cin bring to his home. It is one of the
woiat forms of impiety. Peevishness in
a home is not only sin against the Holy
Ohost, but sin against the Holy Ghost in
the very temple of love.— Theo. Parker.
Two Great Talkeks. —When Maccau
lay and Sidney Smith met they talked in
cessantly. “Oh, yes, we both talk a great
deal, said Sidney, “but I don't believe
al icaulay ever did hear my voice ; some
times, when I have told a good story, I
have thought to myself, -Poor Macauly,
miaed thM.’”"* *° rry ,ome dtt y t 0 have
TRUE MARRIAGE.
| The marriage is complete companion
ship. As Jbe companionship grows less
j the marriage becomes untruthful, loses tts
I earliest spring, dwindles from its upex.
, The deepest expression of love is longing
for tlie object loved. When the longing
decreases love lias decreased in the same
proportion. Companionship is the rela-
J lion of the longing ; and the realization
which does not produce satiety touches
aud blends with the ideal. All the ro
mance of the freshest emotions tends to
and demands companionship. The most
ordinary lovers are as Daphne anil Apollo
when Hist they catch the soft infection.
The sentiments with which they are in
spired warm them with poetic fervor, and
the common tilings that compose their life
assume the hues of remembered dreams,
ihe instinct of companionship is strongup
<>n l hem. They glide to each other like con
-1 current s'rcums, and, once together, their
J rustic sib nee is more eloquent than mould
ed words. TUeir sole thought, their one
j desire, is companionship, whose presence
I and influence lend color and warmth,
i rhythm and ihymo to the rude prose of
j their being. For liouis they will sit he
j side a stagnant pool and see the heaven of
! their hope mirrored oil its turbid surface.
They will walk hand in hand through
barren Helds (hat are to them as Armida’s
enchanted garden. They, will be sur
rounded by poverty aud meanness, mid
personal contact will conjure these into
ultluence und splendor. In all such exter
nals companionship is the transparent
power, the cunning creator of beautiful
illusions, the spiritual sorcerer that com
pels the outward state to reflect the inner
mood.
As with course so it is with fine human
ity. Like seeks like throughout the uni
verse, and this seeking attains its end in
companionship. The masculine.and fem
inine in all the kingdoms strive toward
each other ; wanting rest until conjoined
and wanting development until conti
guity be secured. While companionship
continues satisfaction lasts ; but both are
usually temporary from the absence of
genial conditions. Marriage, I repeat, is
companionship, and with the termination
of companionship veritable divorce be
gins. Wedlock, as generally seen, is a
cumbersome volume, with a sweet pre
lude of verse followed by tedious chapters
of awkwardly-constructed prose. The
proem represents companionship, und the
subsequent part is withdrawal, if the com
panionship could but be preserved each
mouth would prove a houeymoon ; dis
cords, bickerings, and misunderstanding
would diminish rather than increase, be
cause llie action of contact wears off
angels aud adjusts uneven surfaces to one
another. Men would not sulk ; women
would not regret; nor would both turn to
the past with the unavailing wish to undo
Hie present. Their burdens would be
lighter by Ihe sharing of them ; their
discontents he softened by sympathetic un
folding. Their ways might be dark and
devious ; hut the consciousness that they
should walk, where’er they went, closely
and tenderly together, would shed
such light upon their pathway that
the darkness would he dispelled, and
the deviousuess made straight. It
is never too late to resume companionship
—would that they who need most might
remember this ! —and yet they who have
surrender it rarely look for it again. When
they step apart, the slightest channel of
their separation broadens and deepens un
til what was a crevice becomes a yawning
chasm, which few have the strength or
courage to leap. If they would but stretch
their yearning arms across, wounded faith
broken affection, bruised tenderness could
pass over the natural bridge aud he made
whole once more by receiving back what
had been their own, and must soon again
be mutually posse6sd.—“ Women as com
panions,” by Junius Henri Browne, in
February Galaxy,
Salk ob’ tiie Spartanburg and Un
ion Railroad. —The Spartanburg and
Union Railroad was sold yesterday at
Union as per advertisement. It was pur
chased by Alfred Austell, Vice-President,
aud R Y. McAden, director of the Air-
Line —Charlotte to Atlanta—for
$308,000; $50,000 cash, balance tn three
annual instalments.
The former sale to General Worthing
ton was for $450,000 —$142,000 more
than it sold for yesterday. 'There were a
large number of persons present from
abroad, and the bidding was spirited.—
Columbia (S. C.) Union.
Michigan is one of the States wherein
the death penalty has been entirely abol
ished. It was done years ago, after a des
perate contest, but now every body is ap
parently satisfied with it There are in
her State Prison no less than sixty con
victs who are serving life sentences for
murder. Her population is considerably
less than half that of Ohio. Upon the
same ratio we should have one hundred
ami fifty. This shows that they punish
murder with some certainty in that State,
whereas here, with our pretended death
penally, a large portion escape. In at
tempting to execute the extreme sentence
against the conscientious convictions of a
large portion of our people, most of the
malefactors get olf altogether. Which is
the best for the interest of society ?— Cin.
Enquirer.
As Inexplicable Veto on Tennes
see.—The Washington special to the Cin
cinnati Commercial says there is a good
deal of feeling among.our Tennessee Rep
resentatives in Congress, and also among
members of the House Committee on
Claims, in regard to the President’s veto
of the bill for reimbursing the East Ten
nessee University for rent and damage to
the building during the war, to the
amount of $18,500. Great surprise is
felt that the. President should have
vetoed this bill, and approved the one
for Keutucky University on January 17,
1871. The bills since the veto,have been
compared, are verbatim except in regard, |
to names, and the two cases are exactly
alike, except that the amount in the Ken
tucky case was $2,500 instead of $18,500.
The papers were not called for in either
case by the President, and supposing that
there is a rule which governs him in his
official course, his action in the case is re
i garded as inexplicable.— Nashvitle Banner.
Little Minnie, who hears much discus
; sion about religious radic.aU and the Kad
-1 ical Club, when asked by her aunt what
| part of the New Testament she wanted
: read to her, replied, “The story about the

Credit Fonctrr.—lt is an old saying
that one extreme follows another, and, in
corroboration of this at least time-honored
saying, it is currently reported that as
soon as Congress exhausts the Credit
Mobilicr, or. more probably, the Credit
Mobilier exhausts Congress, the palate of
the nation is to be tickled by the revnln
tions of the Credit Foncler. It will be
remembered that the irrepressible Train
was the first who introduced this latter
scheme In this country from France. It
is thought it will contain some startling
revaUtions iu regard to Jobs which lmve
been lobbied through Congress in the past
fifteen years Verily the lines have not
fallen in pleasant places in regard to Con
gress, at least of late.
Governor l)tx has refused to grant
tho petition for a commutation of the
sentence of John Guffey, the murderer
of Patrick Fahey. lie says something is
due to society and to tho manes ol the
murdered man, as well as to the lacerated
feelings of tlio murderer’s friends. He
closes thus :
I can find no justification for defeating
the execution of the law by tire interposi
tion of my aullyirlty ; and If the ex pres-,
sion of my purpose in similar cases will
have tiro effect of deterring evil-minded
persons from committing this highest ol
crimes, I am willing to have it under
stood that circumstances of a very extra
ordinary nature will he needed to induce
me to interpose for the purpose of annull
ing the deliberate and well considered de
terminations of juries aud courts. I am,

IT is universally conceded that advertising is
a necessity to success in business; it is also
conceded, by the shrewdest business men, that
newspapers are the best medium for reaching
all parties whose trade is desired.
THE MONROE ADVERTISER
reaches more of the people trading with Ma
con than any other journal published in the
country; it is, therefore, the best medium of
communication with the planting interests.
tVe will be happy at any time to furnish refer
ences to leading merchant* here and elsewhere,
who will testify to the fact that they have re
ceived orders for goods from parties who read
their cards in The Advertiser. In fact, many
who have availed themselves of its columns,
candidly say that its value exceeds that of all
other journals in which they are represented.
The Advertiser has the freshness of youth and
the ripeness of age, and is therefore deservedly
successful.
CHARACTER OP ADVERTISEMENTS.
No advertisements are admitted whiuh are
not believed to be above question and of real

all the weight of endorsement, and authority.

A MODEL NEWSPAPER.
THE SAVANNAH DAILY NEWS.
The Savannah Dally Morning News is ac
knowledged by the press and people to be the
best daily paper south of Louisville and oust of
New Orleans. Carrying with it the prestige
and reliability of age, \l has all the vigor and
vitality of youth, and Its enterprise us a gath
erer of the latest aud freshest news has aston
ished Its contemporaries and met the warm ap
probation of the public. ,
During the year 18711, no expense of time, la
bor, and money will l> spent to keep the Morn
ing News ahead of all competitors in (icorgiA
journalism, and to deserve the flattering enco
miums heaped upon it from all quarters.—
There has, as yet, been no serious attempt
made to rival the special telegrams which the
News inaugurated some years ago, and the
consoouencc Is, that the reader in search of the
latest intelligence always looks to the Morn
ing News. The telegraphic arrangements of
the paper ure such that the omissions made by
Ihe general press reports are promptly und re
liably supplied by its special correspondents.
Tins Morning News has lately been enlarged
to a thirty six column paper, and litis broad
scope of type embraces, tially, everything of
Interest that trauspires in the domain of Liter
ature, Art, Science, Politics, Religion, and Gen
eral Intelligence; giving to the reader more
and better dlgesteu matter than any other pa
per in ihe State.
It is, perhaps, needless to speak of tho pol
itics of the Morning News. For years and
years—lndeed, since its establishment—it has
been a representative Southern paper, and from
that time to the present, in all conjunctures,
it has consistently and persistently maintained
Democratic* Btu tea Rights principles, and lu
bored, with an ardor and devotion that know
no abatement, to promote und preserve the in
terests und honor of the South.
The special features of the Morning News
will bo retained and improved upon during the
ensuing year, aud several new attractions will
be added.
The Georgia News Items, with their oualnt
and pleasant humor, and the epitome of Flori
da Affairs. will be continued during the year.—
The Local Department will be, as it hue been
for the past year, tho most complete and relia
ble to be found in any Snvunnah paper, and
the commercial columns will be full and accu
rate.
The price of the Daily Is $lO per annum ; $5
for six months; s‘*i.so for three months; $1 for
one month.
TIIE TIU-WEEKLY NEWS.
This edition of the Morning News is espe
cially recommended to those who have not the

test dispatches and market reports. The price
of this edition is $0 per annum, $8 for blx

TIIE WEEKLY NEWS.
The Weekly Morning News particularly
recommends Itself to the funner anil planter,
and to those who live off the lines of railroad.
It Is one of the best family papers in the coun
try, and Its cheapness brings it within the reach
of all. It contains Thirty-sir so!id colnintis of
