Telegraph & Messenger. The Largest and Host Complete Steel TUESDAY MORNING, AUGUST 8. 1871. My Old Lore. I liour in the thicket the brooklet's fall; A Uintah on the lilac spray Kings, aa of old, the vesper song Of the slowly waning day; _ . . , And the fragrance comes down from the chestnut , trees In tho meadow where daiaioe Uiw, Aa it came down when tho tender twilight came. In the springs of long ago. Far over the dark and shadowy woods, Comes floating the church bell's chime. Aa I wander and dream in tho fading light, Aa I dreamed in Uie olden time. Wbon I lingered under the chestnut boughs. Till boshed was the bird's sweet strain. And the shimmering light of tho moonbeams fell, On tho leaves like a eilver rain. But novor shall I wait and watch, In the huih of the eweet apring night. For a step In tho depth of the rustling copae, And Uie gleam of a garment white. And never again ’ncath the dew-gemmed Cowers, Khali I linger my love and I, When the tromuloua stars through the fleecy bars Look out in the wostem sky. Yet a Joy which is nameless and strangely sad Throbe oft in my heart's deep core, Aa the awoet, eweet love of the days long fled Is thrilled Into life once more. O dear was I to the heart that is cold, And her love o'erahadowa mei still; And the stars shine down on her grave to-night In tho lone churchyard on tho hili. AN AMERICAN BATTLE OF DORKING. Slmmefiil EfTiirt or Western Cnmlldatea Tor I lie Presidency to Prejncllce the Public Mint! Atrnlnst the Formers’anil Mechan ics’ Cnndltlnte. From the Indianapolis Evening News ] Tho following is supposed to have been writ ten in 1892 by Mas Adeler, who was a witness of tho terrible scenes which occurred at the time of which the story tells.. The English satire, “Tho Battle of Dorking,” [supplied the suggestion for this prophetic talc: TBS OONQU8T OF AMERICA. Yon ask mo to tell you, my children, of the events which immediately preceded tho destruc tion of tho once groat American Union, and tho capture of the country by its present European rulers, and to say something also of the cause which led to theso deplorable result a I undertake the task with a heavy heart, for when I revert to that terrible time I cannot help contrasting our proud condition np to that fatal year with tho hnmiliating position occu- piod now by tho American people. The story is a abort ono. In tho fall of 1872 Horace Gree ley, tho oditor of a newspaper in New York, was olectod President of the United States. The people voted for him bocanse they thought he was an honest man. And so ho was. Bnt he was also vain and weak, and he entertained cer tain fanatical and preposterous notions—abont ngrionltnral matters, for instance—which he was determined to force npon the people at all hazzards and despite all opposition. He believed, among other things, that every man ought to go to tho Woat to earn bis bread, and long before he was chosen President he used to advise everybody to move to that region, as a cure for all the disasters that could befall tho human family. DRIYIKO THE 8F.AB0HD POPULATION WEST. As soon as he reachod tho Exocutivo Mansion which wo used to call tho White House, Pros! dent Greeley organized an army of two bnndred thousand men, and proceedod to force the en tire population of tho seaboard States westward nt the point of the bayonet. The utmost vio lence was used. Tboso who resisted were shot down, and their dead bodies were carted off to a national factory which tho President had es tablished for making some kind of fantastical fertilizer. AU the large cities of the East were depopulated, and the towns wero entirely empty, Tho army swept before it millions of mon, wo men and children, nntil the vast plains west of Kansas wero reached, when the pursuit ceased nnd tho army was drawn np in a continnons line, with orders to shoot any person who attempted to visit the East. Of course hnndrds of thoas- andsof these poor creatures perished from star vation. This seemed to frighten President Gree ley, nnd he sent a message to Congress recom mending that seven hundred thonsand volumes of a book of his, entitled “What I Know Abont Enrming," shonld be voted for the relief of the starving sufferers. This was done, and farming implements nnd soeds were supplied; and then tho millions of wretched outcasts made an effort to till tho ground. Of the result of this I will speak further on. ALL EUBOrE IN ARMS AGAINST AMERICA. In tho meantime tho President was doing in finite barm to the country in another way. His hand-writing was so fearfnlly and wonderfully bad that no living mnn could read it. And so when ho sent his first annual message to Con- gross—the doenmont was devoted wholly to tho tariff and agriculture—a sentence appeared which subsequently was ascertained to be: “Large cultivation of rntabagoe nnd beans is tho only hope of the American nation, I am sure.” Tho printers, not beiDg able to inter pret this, put it in the following form, in which it wont to the world: “The Czar of Russia couldn't keep clean if he washed himself with tho whole Atlantio Ocean once a day!” This perversion of the message was immediately tel egraphed to Russia by the Russian Minister, nud the Czar was so indignant that he imme diately doclared war. Just at this time President Greeley under took to writo some letters to Prince Bismarck npon tho subject of potato rot, and, after giv ing bis sigular views at great length, he conolud ed with the statement that if the Emperor Wil liam said that snbsoil ploughing was not good in light noils, or that guano was better than bone dust, ho was a “a liar, a villain, and a slave!" Of course the Emperor also imme diately declared war, nnd became an ally of Russia nnd of England, against which latter country Mr. Greely had aotnnlly begun hostili ties already, because the Queen, in her speech from tho throne, had declared the Tribune’s ad vocacy of n tariff on pig iron incendiaujr, and calculated to disturb tho peace of nations. Unhappily this was not the full rne^ure of our disasters. Tho President had sent to the Emperor of Austria a copy of his book, “ What I know,” Ac., with his autograph upon a fly leaf. The Emperor mistook tho signature for a caricature of the Austrian eagle, and he readily joined in tho war against the United States; while France was provoked to the same act by tho fact that when the French Minister came to call upon Mr. Greely to pre sent bis credentials, the President, who was writing an editorial at the time, not compre hending tho French language, mistook the Am bassador for a beggar, and witbont looking np handed him a qnarter and an order for s clean shirt, and said to him, “Go West, young man go Wall" PRESIDENT GREELEY AND CABINET HANGED. So all theso nations joined in making war upon the United States. They swooped down npon onr coasts and landed witbont opposition, for tboso exposed portions of onr nnhappy coun try wero absolutely deserted. The President was afraid to call away the army from Kansas nt first for fear the outraged people upon the plains would oomo East in spite of him. Bnt at last he did summon the army to his aid, and it mo veil to meet the enemy. It waa too late. Before the troops reached Cincinnati Ihe for eigners had seized Washington and all the coun try east of the Ohio, and had hnng the Presi dent, the Cabinet, and every member of Con gress. The army disbanded in alarm, and the mvadeis moved to the far West, where they found the population dying of starvation be cause they had followed the advice of Greeley’s kook to "Try, for your first crop, to raise limes; and don't plant more than a bushel of quick lime in a hillOf course these wretched peo ple wero at the mercy of the enemy, who—to Lis credit be it said—treated them kindly, fed them, and bronght them back to their old homes. UTTER RUIN OF, THE REPUBLIC. You know what followed—how Prince Freder ick William of Prussia ascended the American throne, nnd the other humiliations that ensued. It was a fearful blow to republicanism—a blow from which it will never recover. It made us, who were freerueu, a nation of slaves. It was all the result of our blind confidence in a mis guided old man who thought himself a philoso pher, bnt who was actually a fool. May Heaven preserve you, my children, from the remorse I feel when j remember that I voted for that bucolic old editor. Boob art SMonry 10 BE FOUND n THE SOUTH. J. W. BURKE & CO.
