LIE RECALL

THE RECALL.
Ger The ioffs rhosptsin, Ger the deep sea,
Trace back thy Offering steps, Rudolphs 70 mel
Trace back thy footsteps, return to thine own.
Cast on this cold world nnfriended, alone
Ger my defenceless head, keen blows the blast,
A I'd 10 my pathway dark shadows are cast
Friends turn aside, and depar, one By one,
Now that my dsy Of prosperity s gone.
But thu the vail Of the tempest hear,
And see the dark forest trees trembie With fear;
The STRIPPING PROSTATE by the pitiisss storm,
And cen the proud OAK from It's height rudely
thrown,
Secure through the regions of fancy roam,
For It's there, happy there, wearied souls find a
home
haven Of rest where the spirit may fee
From cares which would fetter the soul that is free.
Friends ,urp aside but the poet has said,
Friendship = sarne, and best love but shade;
W hich soon is obscpred vhen clouds intervene,
And all become. dark as the nights fearful dream,
But tho deep gloom 10 my pathway hnd,
The myrtle still closer my temples shall bind;
Reminding me kindly that time has been there,
Ard on its pinions will soon disappear.
Then ali shall be left n the in.atiate ground,
Save the myrtle which my pale temples was
bound
For chains which encircled nv soul from its birth,
And suspended the spirit tween heaven and earth,
Now broken. shall draw the immortal away
From the confines Of earth, its dark prison Of cay.
On fancys bright pinions no longer soar,
But home to possess when cen time is no more.
Ger the lofty mountain Ger the deep sea-
The southern breeze whispered softly 10 me,
Loy'd ones scattered. thy hearth is all drear,
And hearts TO thee true, shed many tear.
Music no more with ifs soft magic power
Is heard through thy halls at the still twilight hour
Thy harp strings broken all scattered they lie,
Exposed TO the gaze of the cold pesser by;
The song which ar rested the listeners ear,
Ne'er again shall the heart Of the sorrowfu cheer,
For the ngh,5i I'd that sang on thy evergreen
Hath lost its sweet voice in waiting for thee.
Der the lofty mountain, o err the deep main,
Sweet breath of the south would WOO thee again
From jessanin bower an sweet orange grove,
Glad tdngs to bring me from those whom love.

Till spring shall throw Ger them her mantle OF

Till Soils brilliant rays shall again gid the west,
Till then in this cold drearv region III rest;
And when the gay rainbow her wings spread at

To stay the bright too lavishy given.
Till then If thou CONTEST not. farewell to thee
For all hope, but Of heaven extingushed shall be.

quity among the old Harrison men ms to
the state of feeling in regard 10 MIR. Clay
and found, as we have frequently declar-

the old Harrison democrats think of or
talk about. We saw hundreds OF the old
stand-byes of our party 10 the State, and
to man they 60 for Clay, and display
more earnestness 10 his behalf than they
did for the lamented Harrison. The feel
ng for Clay in this State is deep and a.
biding, and we confidently believe
aud this IS the impression OF every one
that we have conversed with--that the
vote Of the State will be given to him IN
1874 by handsome majority Clay is
the only hope Of the Wings Of this State,
as he is the only salvation Of the country,
and to him they look with anxious solicit
tude. A rally will be made for him
when the time arrives which will surprise

"not guilty Of the felony Of murder, but
guilty Of manslaughter. The United
States Gazette ssys:--
The prisoner, who had been standing,
AZ is the form, no sooner heard the last
words than he fell backwards in his chair
in paroxysm Of grief; his sobs were
long end loud, but we're far exceeded by
those which burst from his aged and ago.
nized parent, and his elder brother. The
spectacle was a most affecting one from
the moment Of the rendition of the YER
dict until we left the Court room Eat FIVE
o'clock the father had not taken his
hands from the body Of bis son, which he
cIasped as conyulsiyely as il be was then
10 part from him for ever.
The Rev. DIR. Ducachet was busy in
pouring the words Of consolation into the
fathers aer; but up TO the moment in
which we left with but little or no effect.
The brother, too, remained inconsolable.
Mihon, however, had partially regained
| his composure at this time.
