THE DAILY TIMES
ESCAPE FROM WINTER.


BY j. G. PERcIyAL.
o, had the wings of a swallow I'd fy
Where the roses are blossoming all the year long;
where the landscape is always a feast to the eye,
And the bills of the warblers are always in song;
y, then would fly from the cold and the snow,
Ana HE to the land of the orange and vine,
Andcarol the winter away in the glow
mat rolls Ger the evergreen bowers of the line.
Indeed, should gloomily steal o err the deep,
Like the storm-loving petre that skins there alone
would take me dear little martin to keep
soclabe fight to the tropical zone;
How cheerly, wing by wing, over the sea
We would fly from the dark clouds of winter away
And forever our song and our tyitter should be-
ITO the land where the years. eternaly gay.''
We would nestle awhile in the jessamne bowers,
And take up our lodge in the crown of the palm
And i've like the bee on its fruit and its II ..wers
mat always a e flIwiag with bney and balm;
And there we would stay, til The winter is o err,
And April is chequered with sunshine and rain
y, then we would fly from that far-distant shere,
Over island and wave, to our country again
How light we would skim where the pillows are rolled
Through clusters that bend with the cane and the
. lime,
And break on the beaches in surges of gold
w hen morning comes forth in her loyelest prip,ei
we would touch for while, traversed the ocean
AT the Islands that echoed to Waller and Moore.
And winnox our wings, with an easier motion.
Through the breath of the cedar that blows from the
shore.
And when we had restle our WINGS and had fed
on the sweetness that comes fl ON the juniper groves
BY spirit OF home and of infancy led,
we would hurry again to the land of our loves;
And when from the breast of the ocean would spring
!, Far on In the distance, that dear native shore,
In thejo ofour hearts would cheerily sing.

The National Intelligencer reviews the Cen
trail American question at considerable length,
and with great ability. In the following extrac,
the. editor exposes tho absurdty and disinpe-
nuousness oil the attempt, to torture the language
OF Gen, Taylors message into an admission that
British Honduras was included in the CLAYTON
treaty:
In regard to that part of the article of the
Union which quotes passage from the message
OF Gen. Taylor, transmitting the treaty to the
Senate, that sit protected any communication
by canal or railway across the Isthrnus, commen-
cling in the southern part of Mexico, and termi-
mating in the territory Of New Grenadn," it is
plain that the object of the quotation is to use it,
ms 1t has been used by others, for the purpose
OF showing that Gen. Tay or admitted that these
were the limits of the territory from which
Great Britain excluded by the treaty. The
absurdity of such construction of Gen. Taylor's
language, will appear at once to any man who
viii read the eighth article of the treaty. by
which the high contracting parties .'agree to ex-
tend their protection by treaty stpuations to any
other practicable communications, (besides that
by Nicaragua,) whether by canal railway,
across the Isthmus which connects North and
South America, and especially to the inter
oceanic communications, should the same prove
to be practicable, whether by canal railway,
which are now proposed to be established by ths~
way of Tehuantepec or Panama" Ll2s,ezs@a'-

the public mind che idea - lss~.'9 9; were the

MR.. CLAY ON EMANCIPAT\NG SLAVES
The New York Observer pobn,a, H.. G.,
lowing letter, written by HENRY CLa. 10y
raj political friends of Lis in lew Yoe 49,
wrote to him in 1874 on the subject of emanc..
ting his slaves. They expressed their pleasure
on learning that he had given freedom to his man
Charles, and their desire that he would extend the
same boon to those who still remained on his hands
To which Mr.. CLAY addressed to them the fol-
lowing high minded and characteristic reply:
ASHLAND, January 8, 1916.
Gentemen:-I have perused your friendly let
ly in the spirit in which it was written
| am glad that the emancipation of my servant
Charles meets your appreciation. A degree OF
publicity has been given to the fact which !
neither expected nor desired. | am not in the
habit OF making any parade of my domestic
transactions, but since you have adverted to one
of them, will say that / had previously eman-
cipated Charles mother and sister, aud acqui-
esced in his fathers voluntary abandonment OF
my service, who lives with his wife near me-
Charles continues to reside with me, and the sf
feet of his freedom is no other than that of sub.
stitating fixed wages, which now pay to him,
tor the occasional allowances and gratuities
which gave him.
You express a wish that | would emancipate
the residue Of my slaves. Of these more than
half are utterly incapable of supporting them
selves, from infancy, old age, or helpless
ness. They in families. What would
they do if l were to send them forth to
the world Such measure would be ex-
tremely cruel instead of humane. Our law does
not admit of emancipation, without security be.
ing given that the freed slaves shall not be pub
lie charge.
In truth, gentlemen, the question of my emau-
cpating the slaves yet remaining with me in
wolves many considerations of duty, relation and
locality, of which, without meaning any disre-
speet to you, think you hardly competent to
Judge. At all events, l, who alone am re-
s3onsibe to the world, to God and to my
conscience. must reserve to myself the ex-
elusive judgment.
firmay believe that the cause of the extinc-
ton of negro slavery, far from being advanced,
has been retarded by the agitation of the subject
at the North This remark is not intended for
those who, like you. are moved by benevolent
impulses, and do not seek to crafty personal or
political ambition.
am, with great respect, your friend and ODE
dent servant, III. CLAY.
