OF all the landscape underneath,
find no place that does not breathe
Some gracious memory of my friend.
"'Tis held that sorrow makes us wise,
Yet how much wisdom sleeps with thee,
Which not alone had guided me,
But served the. seasons that may rise
"And doubtless unto thee is given
A life that bears immortal fruit,
In such great offices as suit
The full-grown energies of Heaven.
"Aud love will last as pure and whole
As when he loved me here in time,
And at the spiritual prime
Rewaken with the dawning soul"

For Lycidas--your sorrow, is not dead;
Sunk though he be beneath the wat'ry floor,

And tricks his beams, and with new-spangled ore
Flames in the forehead of the morning sky;

Politics and Business.

Nearly The entire session Of Congress has
been consumed in partisan political discns.
sions. With few exceptions, nothing has
been done for the business interests of the
country, though great deal has been said
and done 10 divide the country, inAame Sec
tional feeling, and create bitterness and ILL
will all over The land. We had hoped 10 see
during the session some attempt made 10
wards the adoption of decimal system of
weights and measures for the country. Other
nations are adopting such syetem, and its
conveniences are generally admired in ev-
cry commercial and lradirg nation. The
United States certainly should moi be The last
10 adopt system which promises such prac-
ticay good results. Will some member of
Congress just drop politics for short lime
and devote his attention 10 This subject? He
will do infinitely more service 10 The coun-
try than will be realized by all the political
speeches which shall be made in Congress
between now and next November Free
speech in Congress is great privilege, but
il makes itself infinitely more valuable when
it is directed 10 securing. some real and Tan
gible benefit 10 the whole community. What
real advantage to the public are the partisan
speeches in Congress Who is benefited
by them? What is there in them that will
be remembered, or which the public will
desire or have any truly good reason to re-
member week after Congress shall adj
journ? Yet two or three practical members
OF that body devo,ing their time and a,tsn.
ton 10 matters Of real import, and persist
emily pressing them upon Congress, could
give them something 10 talk about that would
inform their constituents and be of real ser
vice 10 the public when enacted into law.

Prophecy of Henry Clay.

We have nct hestaied 10 denrecate the
dangerous attitude which Black Republican.
ism has assumed in its nomination of sec
tioral candida'e- lnr the Presidency and Wee
Presidency OF the United States. Tba, the
Union is in danger al the present time, we
think is indispulable. the danger perhaps
does not consist so much in selecting candi-
dates from this or that section of the Confed-
eracy, as in The fact that Messrs. Fremont
and Dayton are placed in nomination by one
section alone, and, if elected, will be chosen
by that sec,ion-the other being entirely ex-
clujed from any participation 10 the govern.
ment, and OF course, virtually expelled from
The Union. The great danger at the preren,
time lies in pitting candidates against each
other, as champions of repugnanl sectional
views of the constitutional rights of The
