INTERESTING READING MATTER ON 4TH PAGE
THE APPI.E OP LIFE
A NEW POEM BT OWEN MEREDITH.
It is known to nearly all the lovers of lighl
literature that the rwm de p'ume of Owen
Meredith thinly disguises the personality of
Robert Bulwer Lytton, the son c f the illus
trious man of letters, whose versatile genius
has made him the Admirable Crichton of the
nineteenth century. We regret to hear tha’
his old age has been embittered by chronic
deafness; but he oust be dens indeed if the
applause that follows his scion falls heedless
upon ivs ear. Bulwer. the younger, has com
posed some remarkable poem», and is „m the
front rank of modern poetic artists. His style
ii a mingling of Tennyson and Browning, cn
rionsly and daintily blending the airy tender
ness of the one with the Saxon force and dra
matic photography of the other. He ha
avoided the jewelry of the Laureate and the
obscurity of the Author of Paracelsus. What
they sing as priests and recluses, he sings as a
man of the world. Some poets fu'fil the im-
portant function of interpreting others, just a‘
Byron, in many of bis most striking passages,
translated the recondite musing of Words
worth. It is a glory to be a poet for poets ;
it is creditable to mediate between the cons
crated p«e* and the dwellers in darkness.
Here Owen Meredith has his established posi
tion as an exhibitor of oracle-. We are fm
from affirming that he has nothing of his own :
on the contrary, he has much that is fresh and
original, but his diapason is caught from the
grand master*, and sonorously does he repeat
them to the practical world. Critics have dis
covered that, his “ Lncile ’’ was plagiarized
from a forgotten novel of George Sand. Ever
. if this he Ivue, his punishment may he gravely
mitigated by the fact of his having vivified
the dead and lot less by the authority of
Goethe, who defines genius to be nothing else
but the power of resurrecting extinct thought
and reanimating those about to perish. Oui
poet, therefore, has strong grounds of def. net
on the claim of salvage, and hypercriticisn
alone would deny the merit.
A. mun of elegant accomplishments though
a merchant, a dear friend who knows bow t< ■
make money and di,-course on high philoso
phy', wit, eloquence and poetry, has sent ui:
pamphlet copy of tins last song of Owen
Meredith, called the “ Apple of Life.” Tb
whole poem does not exceed two hundred
line#, but is a story worthy of him who wrote
- the Arabian Nights. It may be objected tlm'
the hexametric structure of the verse is n
fault. The English tongue is in direct an tag
onism to hexameter verso, and, although a feu
great writers have beeu ns successful as Blon
din on that cla’sieal tight rope, it is uotalwny
dignified to push grim Homer or graceful
Virgil before you in a wheelbarrow. Still,
Owen Meredith has performed his tour dr
forret as wrll as any, and in the little poem
before us his agile verse writhes dexterously
about the rugged angles of surly hexameter.

ships come ar,d go in grand silence,” reigned
King Solomon. Gold in Lis kingdom Vas ar
common as pebbles or greenbacks in this. Be
cause of his wisdom, his. glory exceeded all the
KiDgs of eaitb. Yet, in spite of his treason
and fame, Solomon was sad tiiai he was old,
and soon to relinquish his magnificence. While
gloomily pondering, in his garden, the evan
escence of all terrestrial things, he became
aware of the approach of a man with a visage
supramortally dark; In answer to the King
as to his abrupt advent, the man extended the
palm of his hand and displayed therein a rosy
apple plucked from the Tree of Life. He
* seated, ns he*dropped the fruit into
hand, that ho came as an envoy of God—the
Giver of good to good and evil to the evil. To
•Solomon ho had sent the Apple of Life, the
fatal immortality of Eden. The King perused
the fruit, so alluring but yet untasted, and fi
nally abandoned the* gift of perpetual life,
since a perpetuity of old age was a doubtful
benison. Among his many wives he had n
favorite Shulamito of transcendent loveliness,
and then in the first riot of youthful exuber
anco. To her, he determined to give the Ap-
pie. Haying ascended to the chamber where
she slept, and, awakening her with a kiss,
presented the apple, imploring her to eat be
cause she was young and beautiful.—When
the King was gone, the charming Shulamite
perused the apple, but tasted not. She re
cognised the power of it* occult virtues, but
Anally concluded that even perpetual comel
iness and youth were valueless with"ut. the as
surance of perpetual love. Wherefore, no'
being over seduleus about the venerable Sol
omon, but passionately affected towards the
Prince Azariah, she puts upon her finger a
ring of invisibility, coaxed from old Sol, and
goes forth t® the apartment of the Prtnce
Azariah, being a prudent young scamp, expos
tulates with the fair Shulamite for her peril
ous visit, but she proffers the apple, stating
that, for his sake, she has religquished the
boon of perpetual life and made eternity u
sacrifice to love.—Azariah, when she was gone,
perused the mystic apple, bat, ere he tasted
the sp JI was broken by wanton bacchanalian
songs from the glee-girls in the street, the |
burden of whose song was : o seiz® pleasure '
as it flies and pluck blossoms in time. Where
for? the gay youth Azariah, net being satis
fied that perpetual libertinism was the sum of
desire, determined, as a rare joke, to give the
apple to a daughter of pleasure. Bent upon
this idea, he issues forth and seeks the blan
dishments of a Cleopatra unqueened. To her
he is admitted, girdled with voluptuous in
case, aud after much banter, presents the
Apple, exclaiming laughingly that it tickled
his brain to think that the mighty would die
and she a Nothing, or worse than nothing,
should sit on their graves and play with their
grandsons.—Finally he left, and the dark
Egyptian woman fell a musing over she ap
ple. She lasted it not, for she thought,that
perpetual life was a curse without honor, and
the apple could bestow upon ber nothing but
perpetual shame. And yet there was a spark
of native purity in the soul of this dark wo
man, that faipt glimmer which never is extin
guished even in the most disgraced of Eve’s
family. She saw a chance for salvation, like
Itahab, ar.d forsaking the hope of perpetual
life, determined to give the apple to King
Solomon, as of all the liv'mg most worthy to
survive. To bim she went and to him pre
sented the apple. ' The wratlT of that royal
- grey-beard may be, as the novelists say, bet
ter imagined than described. At this point
let the poet conclude the story in his own
way:
Bat when he was 'wars of the truth, then his
heart was awaken’d. And he
Knew at once that the m» who, erevrbile, una
wares coming to hint, had brought
That App'e of Lite was, indeed God’s good An
gel of Death. And he thought
11 In mercy, I doubt not, when man’s ejfs were
open’d and made to see plain
All the wrong in himself, and the wretohedness,
God sent to close them again
For man’s sake, his last frieud upon earth—Death,
the servant of Hod, who is ju*t.
Z,et man’s spirit to'Hi/n whence it oometh return,
and his dust to the dust 1”
Then the Apple of Life did King Solom on seal in
mb urn that was sign’d
With, the seal if Oblivion: and summon'd Jho
Spirits that walk in the wind
Unset n on the summtis ol mountains, where never
the f.aide ye' flew; • ,
And these he commanded to bear far away,—out
of reach, out of view, •
Out < f hope, out of memory,—higher than Ararat
buiidt-th his 1 hrone, •
In the Urn of Oblivion the Apple of Liie.
But on green jaspar-stone
Did the King write the story thereof for instruc
tion And Enoch, the seer,
Coming afterward, search’d out the meaning.
And he that hath ears, let him hear.
Colored Troops —We learn from the At
lanta Intelligencer that a portion of the negro
troops, who for some monts past have composed
a part of the garrison of Atlanta, h«ve been
mustered out, and that in a few days the re
mainder will be similarly disposed of.
This will be gratilyiug intelligence to every
one. The Intelligencc-r says that Atlanta has
suffered as little from their presence as any
other—and we believe less —yet it is the uni
versal opinion that the government made an
error iu sending them among us.
In referring to the policy of retaining negro
troops in the South, the Louisville Journal
makes the following judicious remarks : Inci -
dents ot more or less importance are constantly
which prove that tho presence of
negro troops in the South is a source of irrita
tion, and which give force to the suggestion we
made several months ego for their withdrawn!
and the substitution of white troops in their
places. General Grant, in his late tour in the
South, saw the propriety and desirableness oi
the measure, and recommended its adoption. Ii
is to be hoped the President will concur with
the Lieutenant General, and at oece withdraw
that elass of troops
Then longer retention is tot necessary either
to the public welfare or the public safety. They
can be easily replaced by white troops without
any additional expense or any inconvenience or
detriment to the public service. Their with
drawal would exercise a salutary influence and
prevent the petty collisions which now take
place. It would be in strict harmoi.y with thr
President’s general policy. It would conciliate
and show the Southern people that the govern
meut is desirous of removing all needless causes
of strife ; that it can respect natural prejudices
and is not above complying will) anything rea
sonable in furtherance of its grand design ot
restoring national harmony and good will
throughout our widely extended country.
It cannot be eXpeeted tha*, in the South
ern States and along the borders that lately
separated the free from the slave St tes, negro
soldiers should be regarded in the same ligh 1
jng white soldiers. To retain ihe former, there
.'ore, Beems to look like a disposition to humil
iate unnecessarily. This, we are persuaded
the gove nment hat no thought of doing We
hope, therefore, that the recommendation of
General Grant will be heeded without delay
and that all colored soldiers will be speedily
withdrawn, not only from this State ard along
tha borders, but from all the Southern States
We feel satisfied that the great cause of nation
al brotherhood would be thereby promoted,
and the wo>-k of restoration go ot more rapid
' ly and effectively.

BBSORIFTION OF THB OOVBTITPTIOW.
The Constitution was huiltat Mystic, Conn ,
in 1163, of oak and chestnut, «md wag strong,
lr fastened with copper and iron, end was con
sidered an excellent steamer In every respect:
her strength was well tested by holding to
rether for forty-eight h-ur* after getting on
the shoais. She was nine hundred and fortv
fonr tons register, and rated Al* in Lloyd’s
American Register. Sbs was 184 feet.in length.
33 feet beam, and 19 feet depth of hold ; was,
brig rigp-pd, and her draught was fourteen feet.
She cost $120,000 to build.
Immediately after her- completion she was
placed in the service of the government as a
transport. She ennid accommodate seventy
five persons in th * cabin, and a large number
in the steerage. While on the Savannah line
the Constitution generally made the passage
from city to city iu seventy-two hours.
Dbad Lkttkr Rale.—The great sale of arti
cles accumulated through the year in the Head
Letter office was commenced on Saturday by
Boteler, and has been continued with the live
liest kind of bidding ever since. Over half the
immense catalogue is of articles of jewelrv,
largely of the “dollar” sort, but with vprink
ling enough of the genuine to induce a lively
competition. Upwards of three hundred arti -
cles in the collection are packages of patent
medienes. In the ahape of pills powders, un
gents. oils, old school and new school, allo
pathic. homoeooathic, Thompsonian, ecleclic
and all sorts, for the relief of every malady
known toman or woman. -There are over one
hundred and fifty gold (snpposed to be) watches
on the catalogue, and no end of silver watches; i
also an indescribable medlev of all the varieties j
of wares known to civilization. Amongst the j
odd articles thus passed through Uncle Rum’s
mails, finding their way to the Dead Letter
office, are sets of shoemaker’s teols, packages !
of type, ladies’ wigs, bundles of clothing, dnpli i
cate parts of sewing machines, packages of felt 1
hafs, iron erg wheels fsma 1 ),) lots of lamp-wicks j
dress elevators, false bosoms (ladies’,) shoulder j
straps, pieces of a piano, lamp burner, him- I
dreds of military books. The proceeds from
t.he sales wiil be deposited, subject to the order j
of the owners, should anv of them ever turn up j
New York Sun, JOth. '
The New York World condenses the eorres
j pondence between Magoffin and Palmer ar
! follows:
Appears the popinjay Palmer with this long
•igo published official document, which he
deems discreditable not t® Gaither, but to ex-
Govemor Magoffin, its author, *lnce become
Gaither’s father-in-law; and the popinjay bran
dishes the same, and says virtually: “Con--
strain your son-in-law to withdraw his suit
against Thompson, whom I (not the court of
law, but) I, Palmer, with my shoulder straps,
think ought not to be sued, nor to lose bis suit,
or else I. Palmer, with my sword and my pistol
and my shoulder-straps and my terrible big
bug a-boo at Washington, will do terrible
things to you, ob, Magoffin, who are the father
of his wife,’’
And the ex-Governor drew sear to hinp
paper and pen and ink, and indicted the letter
printed in yesterday’s sheet to the paigbty Pal
mer, and said to him with great politeness :
1 Do all you dare door, as a profane Western j
sheet put* it, “Do aud be 1”
Am Imdiomabt Editor—The editor of the ;
Montgomery Ledger having been treated very j
rudaly by a United States o‘ffic*r, relieves his j
raind thus: 1
The editor of this paper, returning to his -
home yesterday morning, called upon what he
supposed to be one of Uncle Sam’s officials, |
npon a small matter of business, who happen- j
ed (unfortunately for any government) to !
wear the badge of a lieutenant; the leilow i
really did not know the difference between a
gentleman and one ofbis menials, who has no
doubt been bullied over from day to day. to
let them know that he was an officer of the
United States. Said officer, in our estimation,
is a d—d poor specimen of Uncle Sam’s great
ness.
Unclaimed Body.—On tbo evening of the
2d of April last, the body of a marr killed in
the last day’s fighting on the right, says the

Memory, Wakefulness, Horror of Disease, or
Forebodings of Evil; in fact, Universal Lassi
tude, Prostration, and inability to enter into tfce
enjoyments of society.
The Constitution, once affected with Organic

Evacuations, Ulcerated or Schirrus State of the
Uterus; and all complaints incident to the sex,
whether arising iroin habits of dissipation, im

And

Will radically exterminate from tbe system Dis
eases arising from Habits of Dissipation at little
expetise, little or no charge in diet, no inoot.ve
nit-ncc or exposure; completely superseding those
unpleasant and dangerous remedies, Copaiva and
Mercury in all these diseases.
USE HELMBOLD’S
FLUID EXTRACT BUCHU,
In all Diseases of these organs, whether existing
iu “Male” or ‘'Female," from whatever cause
originating, and no matter how long standing, it
is pleasant in tasto and odor, “immediate’’ In ac
tion, and more strengthening than any of the
preparations of Baik or Iron.
Those tufiisring from Broken down or Delicate
Constitutions, pro sure the remedy at onee.
The rrader most be aware that however slight
may be the attack of the above diseases, it is cer
tain to affect his Bodily Hea th, Mental Powers,

have been made to purge it out, none can equal
in effect Hrlmbold’s Courotr.vD Extract op
Sarsaparilla. It cleanses and renovates the
blood, instills the vigor of health into the system,
and purges out tbe humors which make disease.
It stimulates the healthy functions 6f the body,
amt expels the d : aor>lers that grow and rankle in
the blood. Such a remedy 'hat could be rel'ed
on, ha* long been sought for, and now, for the

gle bot le will show the sick th-it it has virtues
surpass ng anything they have ever taken.
Two ta-lespo- n'ul of tbe Extract of Sarsaparil

as usually niade.

in the Unl’ed States Army, and are alao in very
general use in all the State Hospitals ard Public
