THE (INSTITUTIONAILST Wearing of the Green. TIIE ORIGINAL BONG. Tliis is the original ballad which has been song all oyer the world wherever an Irishman or Irish-women have permission to sing the songs of their native land. It differs radically, however, from the “Wearing of the Green" as sung in “Arrah-na-Pogue,” the latter being mo dernized to suit the times. The original is pro hibited by the British government as a seditious and treasonable melody calculated to injure the stability of the English monarchy. One of the French Generals, who was standing by when, a few years since, a sword was being presented by the Irish people to Marshal McMahon, sud denly turned to John Mitchel, one of the depu tation, and addressed him in the very words of this ’9Bth ballad—“ How is old Ireland, and how docs she stand ?” THE WEARING OF THE GREEN. [A street ballad.—l79B.*] I’m a lad that’s forced an exile From my own native land, For an oath that’s passed against me In this country I can’t stand ; But while I am at liberty I will make ruy escape, I’m a poor distressed croppy For tlie Green on my cape! For the Green on my cape! For the green on my cape ! I'm distressed—but not dishearten’d— For the Green on my cape! But I’ll go down to Belfast To see that seaport gay, And tell my aged parents In this country I can’t stay, O, ’tis dark will be their sorrow— But no truer hearts I’ve seep, And they’d rather see me dying Than a traitor to the Green! O, the wearing the Green! O, the wearing the Green! May the curse of Cromwell darken Each traitor to the Green! # • • « * When I went down to Belfast, And saw that seaport grand, My aged parents blessed me, And blessed poor Ireland. Then I went unto the Captain And bargained with him eheap— He told me that his whole ship’s crew Wore Green on the cape ! O, the Green on the cape! O, the Green on the cape! God’s blessing guard the noble boys With Green on the cape! ’Twas ctlrly the next morning Our gallant ship set sail, Kind Ileaven did protect her, With a pleasant Irish gale, We landed safe in Paris, Where victualing was eheap— They knew we were United, We wore Green on the cape ! We wore Green on the cape ! We wore Green on the cape!, They treated us like brothers For the Green on the cape! Then forward stepped young Boney, And took me by the hand Baying—“ How is old Ireland, And how does she stand ?” “It’s as poor, distressed a nation As ever you have seen, The.y are hanging men and women For the wearing of the Green I For the wearing of the Green! For the wearing of the Green! They are hanging men, and women, too, For wearing of the tiredn!” “Take courage, now, my brave boys, For here you have good friends, And we'll send n convoy with you, Down by their Orange dens, And if they should oppose us, With our weapons sharp and keen, Wc’U make them rue and curse the day That e’er they saw the Green!” That e’er they saw the Green! That e’er they saw the Green! We’ll show them our authority For wearing of the Green! O, may the wind of Freedom Soon send young Boney o’er, And we'll plant the Tree of Liberty Upon our Shamrock shore; 0, we’ll plant it with our weapons While the English tyrants gape To set; their bloody flag torn down, To Green on the cape! O, the wearing the Green! O, the wearing the Green ! God grant us soon to see that day, And freely wear the Green! Front the Mobile Register and Advertiser , 3d. One More Unfortunate. Hated and shunned, I walk the street, Hunting for what—for my prey ’tin said; 1 look at it though hi a ditferent light, For this mighty shame is my daily bread, My food, my shelter, the r:4fR 1 wear ; Only for this I might starve or drown ; The world has disowned me, what can I dot But live and die on the town. While the city is gay with amusements and pleasure, and ail appears resplendent with joy and happiness on every hand, how few there are who turn from the merry throng to east c’none look of pity on the miserable victims of wretch edness ami poverty, if we wore to tell our readers that an unfortunate woman died in the very heart of tiiis populous and wealthy city from starvation and exposure, night before last, what would he their exclamation : "It cannot be possible! I would have cheerfully contri buted to sulTcring humanity in such a ease if it had been mentioned to me! Poor creature!” Buell are the exclamations of pity we have often heard when it was too late. Well, such a ease was brought to our notice yesterday, and such were the words of empathy called from our heart, but, alas! It is cheap consolation to the sold form in the embrace of death. “ Man’s inhumanity to man, Slakes countless thousands mourn. A miserable wreck of what was once a beautiful girl, was picked lip ou one of the streets in the lower part of the city, where she had laid down to di«. As Wretched as was her lot, and degra ding her career, we will, at least, confer one sharitablc act by withholding.her name. She was almost destitute of clothing, and in the last throes of death. The policeman humanely con veyed the almost lifeless form of the poor wo mau to the station house, where she died du ring tiie night. It is a painful reflection that a human being—one of God’s creatures in the form of mankind—should perish in the midst of thousands of her race, with stores over stock ed with food and raiment. We have often read of such eases occurring in New York, the great metropolis of sin and shauic, but shudder to an nounce such a ease in our own city, noted for the philanthropy and benevolence of its inhabit ants. But it may be said that this poor creature had abandoned the path of virtue —given herself up to a life of shame—and therefore no one but herself was to blame; she made her bed of thorns—let her lie in it. Rut let us see how consistent this virtuous indignity is, and how truthful the words are—we hear them often. — In this ease, we took occasion to make inquiry into the past history of this poor unforttiuate. and trow those few who have known her from early childhood, we glean the following sad particulars: Her parents came to this city when Mary was a child, front Montreal, Lower Canada, and her father, iwing a man of einminenf qualifications, entered into business, and gave this, his only child, all tlie advantages afforded by the best schools in the North. At the age of seventeen she visited Niagara Falls, and was left at that great summer resort by her parents, in tin hands of friends, while they visited lower Can ada. During their absence Mary attended the grand balls given nightlyat the Cataract House, and was dizzied with the glittering array of fashion and splendor surrounding her. Among her many admirers was a young man of gay and dashing manner, and fascinating appear ance. He had known Mary and her parents for years, and set his heart on tlie girl; but her parents rejected him as a suitor for her hand, and he lost no opportunity to secure interviews with her in their absence. On this occasion, Mary, at an unguarded moment, surrendered herself to him, and they eloped. The old story now follows. He plighted his honor to make her his wife, but it was only the frivolous word of a heartless deceiver, soon to be disregarded and forgotten. He deserted his victim in one of the large ci ties of the North, and driven to want and des peration, she became a public courtezan. After years of suffering and privation she made her way home to this city, the scene of her bright and happy childhood. She had fallen to the lowest depths of degradation, but fortunately her parents left Mobile shortly after their afflic tion and returned to Canada, and they have never laid eyes on their unfortunate daughter since they imprinted the parting kiss on her fair young brow at Niagara. Such is the story of this mis erable outcast, who terminated her wretched career on Tuesday night. Was she an object of charity ? Let her own words plead for her: Tell me what is done to the man That tempts and riots in a woman’s fall ? Does his father curse him, is he scorned by all ? Not he, for his judges are like himself. Or thoughtless women who humor their whim. Young blood—wild oats—a dashing young man — They’ll soon forget it in him. But pity and pardon, who are yon, That talks of pity and pardon to me ? What I want is justice, justice, sirs, Let both be punished, or both go free. If it be on a woman such a shame fell. What is it on a man ? now, come, be just., Bemember she falls through her love for him, And he through his selfish lust. What had I to gain by a moment’s sin, To weigh in the scale with my innocent years, My womanly shame, my menial name, My father’s curses, my mother’s tears ? The love of a man. It was something to give Was it worth it ? —the price was my soul paid down. Did I gain a soul —his soul in exchange ? Behold me, here on the town. I met his coach on thjJ street t’other day, Dashing along on the sunny side, With a liveried driver upon its box; And lolling back in his listless pride, The wife of his bosom took the air. She was bought in the marts where hearts were sold. I gave myself away for his love, Site sold herself for his gold. Cling to them, ladies, and shrink from me, Call me opprobrious names, if you will, The truth is bitter ; do you think I have lied? I’m a harlot, yes, but I’m a woman still. God said of old, to a woman like me, “ Go, sin no more,” or your Bible’s lie; But you, and such as yon, wringle lvis merciful words With go and sin till you die. Die! tlie word has a pleasant sound, The sweetest I’ve heard for this many a year, It seems to promise an end to pain, Any way, it will end it her*. Puritanism Versus Catholicity. Avery extraordinary trial has been going on for the last week or so in Baltimore county court, indicative of the ago we live in. Win. Schley, an eminent Baltimore barrister, re marked, during the course of the proceedings, that in the course of thirty years’ experience at the bar, he had never before witnessed sucli bitterness of feeling displayed. It was a prose cution brought nominally by the State against the physician and Sisters of Charity who had charge of, the Mount Hope Asylum, accusing them of a conspiracy to maltreat the unfortunate insane committed to their care. The physician in charge, Dr. Stokes, is one of the first in his profession in the city, and a gen tleman of unimpeachable and unimpeached character. The sisters, acting as nurses ansi managers at the asylum, have for years devoted themselves to their arduous and pain ful duties, witli no earthly reward but their ap proving consciences and the respect and admi ration of every sympathizer with humanity.— For live years they have devoted themselves to alleviating the sufferings of the sick, to watch ing over the insane, and no one is there who has witnessed it but can bear testimony to their tender care and untiring solicitude; and yet, in tiie trial, the coarsest invective and fiercest de nunciation were poured forth upon them and that kind-hearted and amiable gentleman, Dr. Stokes, who, by the way, is a Protestant. It was even intimated by the prosecution that’ somebody had been foully dealt with and a se- j cret murder committed in the institution. But j the whole affair was too evidently a political ! and religious perseettion; one of those cases I that not uul'requently, now-a-days, disgrace the ! annals of our courts. Matters went so far in J the prosecution that the judge, who had been I elected as a partizun, was, in an anonymous i letter, threatened, because of his fair and hn- I partial decisions. The ease went oft' on a ru- ! ling of tiie judge as to the testimony, and the I State’s attorney abandoned as discreditable an ’ attempt to pervert and prostitute engines of justice as ever was witnessed. Wo judge, however, that this prosecution is but the precursor of others, the forerunner of coining events, and that the Catholic Church will have to prepare itself for further developments of the bitter spirit of Puritanism. Such men as tiie Beechers and Ghecvers must have somebody to annoy and persecute. Now, that they have finished the slaveholders they will take the Cath olics. In his recent speech at Washington, Mr. Bancroft alluded very significantly to a grudge they had against the Roman Catholic Church.— lie said: “ It was the condition of affairs in Mexico that involved the Pope of Rome in our difficulties so far that he alone among temporal sovereigns recognized the chief of th"o Confederate States as a President, and his supporters as a people; and in letters to two great prelates of the Catholic Church in the United States, gave counsels for peace at a time when peace meant the victory of secession. Yet events move as they are ordered. The blessing of the Pope at Rome on the head of Duke Maximilian could not revive in the nineteenth century the ecclesiastical policy of the sixteenth; and the result is only anew proof that there can- be no prosperity in the State without religious freedom.”— Richmond Times. Marriage of Colored Persons. —For the information of ordinaries and others, wc make the following statements, based upon informa tion received a few days since, from a member of the General Assembly of this State : By recent enactment, ordinaries are required to issue marriage license to colored persons the same as to white people; and any person au thorized to perform the marriage ceremony is prohibited from uniting, in marriage, colored persons, except lie have a license from the or dinary so to do. A heavy penalty is attached to issuing a license, or uniting in marriage, a white Iljrsou and one of African descent. [/Jo/ne (tia.) Courier. From Cordova. We had the pleasure of a call yesterday from a friend who left Mexico on the lid ult., coming by way of New Orleans. Os the future pros pects of that country, and of the condition ot the emigrants from the Southern States who have gone there, he gave a most flattering re port. He regards the Empire of Maximilian as established beyond question, unless defeated by unfriendly interference on the part of this country. He represents the more substantial class of Mexicans favorably disposed towards his government—the opposition under Juarez as insignificant and daily weakening—and that even a large portion of the Liberal forces would prefer the rule of Maximilian to intervention on the part of the United States, believing that such intervention would only result in subject ing their territory to further absorption on our part, and the establishment of our, not their, sway over it. He reports the financial condi tion of the Empire very differently from that reported by the correspondents of the New York press, and that the military force, instead of diminishing by the withdrawal of French troops is daily increasing. That army in fu ture is to be a Mexican, instead of a French ar my, a part of the new Empire, composed prin cipally of recruits |from the present French ar my and others brought to him from Austria; that this army is a finely disciplined and an ef fective body of men, while the guerrilla bands under Juarez are mere marauders, disorganized and inefficient. Tlie emigrant.-* from the Southern States who have sought homes in Mexico—the number of which is reported as daily increasing—though principally at Cordova, are distributed in vari ous others towns and sections of tlie country. They have enjoyed excellent health and are generally industrious and hopeful. Whilst the majority are turning their attention to the agri cultural pursuits, some have secured contracts in constructing railroads and telegraphs, others are engaged in trade and in clerking. Our in formant thinks there is no difficulty in finding employment, and represents the country as inviting to all who are willing to work, but not to idlers. We are further informed that in becoming a citizen allegiance is pledged to the Mexican Government, and only to Maximilian by impli cation ; and it is understood and recognized that, in tlie event of his failure to make good his claims to the Empire, they are the rightful subjects of whatever Government prevails, and the grants now being made to emigrants are recognized as valid by both the Juarez and Maximilian parties ; and for this reason, in part, payment for lands are deferred for the pe riod of five years. It. is expressly provided furthermore that emigrants from this country are not to be received into the army, and, as a consequence, they are not interferred with by the opposing factions. Our informant has purchased him a farm and planted a crop, commencing on a small scale, within twenty miles of Jalapa. He has had no difficulty in getting laborers at $8 a month, but they are of a very indifferent character. Out of seven days these Mexican hirelings will perform about three days good work. He has planted some sugar cane, but expects to give his atten tion principally to the raising of stock. The country around Cordova is better adapted to coffee, but labor is higher. Gov. Harris is pay ing sls per month. Living in Mexico is very cheap. A few arti cles, however, commanded a high price. Flour, for instance, is worth $45 per barrel, meal only 19c. per bushel. Beef is cheap, except in the City of Mexico, where it sells as high as 10c. Chocolate is considered the most profitable crop. Next to that, coffee. Our friend called on General Canby as he came through New Orleans, and learned his disposition as to parties wishing to sail from that port for Mexico. General C. has no in structions to interfere with immigrants going to that country in good faith. His recent inter ference was prompted by the improper conduct of imprudent parties representing themselves hostile to the Government, and seeking to join tlie army of Maximilian. Parties going to Mex ico to settle should get a certificate of the amount paid out as passage money, in order that it may be refunded by the colonization agent on their arrival there. Tlie foregoing is a brief synopsis of the information given ns by our friend. We publish it for the" benefit of those who feel an interest in the subject. The gentleman alluded to returned to the United States for the families of himself and friend. He expects to pass through this city in ten or twelve days, on his return, and will take charge of any letters that persons may wish to send by him. They should be directed to the care of this office. —Xashville Union. Trial of Major Gee.— The trial of Major Gee, who was in charge of the military prison at Salisbury, North Carolina, during Confede rate times, is still going on at Raleigh. The charge against hint is tiie same old hue and cry —“inhuman treatment of prisoners.” So far as we have been able to read the evidence, as pub lished in the Raleigh papers, nothing has yet been elicited to sustain the charge. It will he recollected that before Stoneman’s forces entered Salisbury, Major Gee escaped with the prisoners loft, and went to Georgia, and gave himself up at Augusta, Georgia, sub sequent to General Johnson’s surrender to Gen eral Sherman. Major Gee then proceeded to Florida, and was there arrested in November last, on a charge of treating prisoners under him “with inhumanity and barbarity, and being guilty of conduct not in accordance with the rules of war.” Since then he lias been in close custody. The Northern correspondents, who are writing a good deal about this trial, say there is a great interest felt in the trial there by, “the secesh of Raleigh, particularly the female part,” who sympathize deeply with Gee. His friends claim that he is not responsible for this treatment. Gee pleads that by the terms of ca pitulation agreeed upon by Sherman and John ston, and tiie parole granted to the officers and soldiers who surrendered under General John ston, that the United States, by its accredited agents, pledged its faith that these officers and soldiers shall not be molested so long as they comply with the terms of their parole. | Richmond Examiner. Important to Cotton Holders.—We are informed upon undoubted authority that Mr. Carswell, who, w r e believe, lives in Macon, sub scribed four hundred bales of cotton to the Confederate Produce Loan, so-called. This cot ton was taken by a Treasury agent. Mr. C. made a showing that he had paid to an agent of the Confederate Government, in accordance with the instructions of its Treasury Depart ment, in Confederate notes the value set upon the cotton—thus virtually turning over the cot ton to the Confederacy, and buying it back as he would any other property. The whole transaction was in accordance with the instructions of the Confederate agents and huppaned long before the surrender. The Fed eral agent in accordance to instructions seized the cotton, and upon Mr. Carswell’s making this showing, lie telegraphed to a special agent, sent from Washington to attend to such mat ters, for information, and was directed to send on the cotton for the Government. The sub agent telegraphed a second time and received in substance the saine_ reply. This taking of cotton appears to us to be un just and arbitary both in law and right; but the sub-agent cannot be blamed ; for, if he holds his position, he must obey the instructions of his superiors.— Columbus Sun. A Large Bid. —We are informed that the Adams Express Company have ottered the Na tional Express Company, of which Gen. Jos. E. Johnston is president, two millions of doll rt to surrender their charter and get out of the way. If true, this furnishes some idea of tie immense business of the former concern and the profits to the stockholders. [J/ocon Telegraph. Jefferson County. a BORGIA, JKFFBKfiON COUNTY.
