Yet once again I've seen thee,
And my every thought is thine,
Ay, kneel to thee in worship
As to an idol shrine.
In my spirits silent chambers,
Where hope may never be,
One lonely light is burning
IT'S holy love Of thee.
! see thce--oh, sec thee
In the shadows on the river,
see thee in the moons sweet beams,
That on the bright lake quiver;
! see the in thee mists that move
Like spectres DER the streams,
And at midnight deep l see thee
In the shadowy world of dreams.
l see thee--oh, | see thee
In the gentle flowers of spring,
And in the tint the rainbow wears
Upon its flecting wing.
see thee in the sunset hues
That gush along the west,
And see thee in the dew-drop
That gems the roses breast.
hear thee--oh, hear thee
In the murmuring of the waves
And in the soft and twilight gush
Of fountains from their caves;
hear thy voices music
In each sound that wanders by
In the cadence of the night bird,
And the winds mysterious sigh.
i hear thee---oh, hear thee
In the chimes of evening bells,
And in the tone that DER the deep
AT solemn twilight swclls;
hear thee in the forrest Tyres
Swept by the breath of even,
And in the low, deep spirit voice
That tells the soul of Heaven.
/ love thee---oh, love thee
There's naught in the bright blue skies
No lovely thing on earth but brings
Thy sweet form to my eyes;
love thee, and there's not sound,
A tone to my spirit dear,
A breath from Natures lip, but gives
Thy voice to my ravished ear.
love thee---oh, | love thee
Thou art in the darkest hour
To my soul, star, a fount, bird,
A music-box, flower
] love thee, and the dear thought thrills
Each fibre of my frame.
Like heavens own lightning, and my hear
In each throb calls thy name
love thee--oh, love thee,
And would these words were borne
To thee on every holy breeze
Of eventide and morn;
love thee, and ! would those words
Were written on the sky,
And on each star and flower and leaf
That greet thy gentle eye.

TESTIMONY OF A DEMOCRAT AND soUFHERNER
FROM THE MEMPHIS (rENN.) ENQUIRER

FROM THE MEMPHIS (TENN.) ENQUIRER.
We presume that, among our Democratic fellow
citizens at least, the opinion of Ex-Governor JOHN A.
QUITMAN, of Mississippi is entitled to some weight
The commences of his Democracy" and his honest
but somewhat misdirected devotion to the South,
have, we believe, never been questioned, even by
the bitterest Of his political opponents. A gentle
man of New Orleans, who was fellow passenger of
Gen. QUITMAN few days since on a steamer bound
up the river, asked his opinion of Gen. ScoTr:
'Sir" said the Governor in reply the American peo-
pie have done Gen. ScoTT justice. The more that
mans character and claims distinction are canvassed
the higher will be the stand he win take in the admra
ton and gratitude of his countrymen."
~ have been surprised and astonished," continued
Gov Quman, that among the Wing party there should
be found single unwilling to give him cordial and
hearty support As to his being controlled by Seward
that is stuff! know the man, and he will be con-
troed by contrary his convictions of what
is right And, to his being true to the South,
slider him the most unexceptionabe that score
among all the Wings who have been named in connexion
with the Presidency. Democrat; and, conse
quently differing widely as l do from Gen. ScoTr on
every political question, give him my support
but if there is Wing in the Union for whom under any
circumstances, could cast my for President that
Wing is WINFIELD ScoTr!"
Such, in substance, we understand, was the reply
of brave and gallant soldier when his opinion Of
a noble and much-abused companion in arms was
asked We have before heard that these were the
sentiments of Gov QUITMAN. If we mistake not,
there is gentleman in this city, Ga Democrat and
another at Holly Springs, Mississippi, who served
with Gov. @. in the Mexican war, to whom, some
months since, he made declarations almost identical
with the foregoing. This testimony, from one of
taka in
with Gen. ScoTT's hearty, unqualified, and enthu-
siastic approval of the Wing Platform, (Which it is
now plain and palpable to the world is sounder,
stronger, and more just to the South, on sectional
questions, than the Democratic platform } these
facts, we say, ought to be, and we doubt not will
be, satisfactory, not only to all Wings but to every
man in the country.
