Q U N EB &c LYRICS
BY HORACE DRESSER.

A word with thee to-day, my dear old river;
Let's talk OF scenes long since gone by;
Think'st thou that can thee forget or ever
Wish not dwell with thee for aye,
The hours, the days the months, in unseen pathway,
Have no,ched their kaends through the year,
And Time, this day, records added birthday
Their number now, I'll tell not here.
My natal day doth come in cold November
When woodlands fields, and all look drear,
When thou art clad with leaves the frosts dsmember
And cast abroad all dead and
When winters voice is borne upon the breezes,
The Storm-King quits his prison
Whose ruthless grasp benumbs and chills and freezes,
Transmutes ice thy silvery waves
Would | could visit thee to-day, dear river,
And make my vows of love to thee
lxion-like my bands | cannot shiver,
Nor from this toll myself make free
Long time ago, when but a tiny fellow,
stood with fragile angle rod,
Upon thy banks where since hath grown a willow,
That spot how of my feet once trod.
Since then, alas! the gliding years, whose traces
Are but too plain upon my hair
Have borne away or wrinkled DER those faces
That smiled such kindly welcomes there
Were alone with thee to-day, old river
Perchance might feel so sad
When behold thy face, what time soev.r
Thou hast strange power to make me glad
To-day I'll talk to thee of certain places,
Where nc'er fail sometime TO roam
And whittier tend my steps with quickened paee.
Whene'er go to boyhoo home
Unknown in legend, song, minstrel story,
With neither Greek nor Roman name,
Without the charm OF deeds, renown, or glory
To mark them the map of fame
The school-house where went, yclept the Gary
Hast heard me speak abont or tell!
Well there il was from fall TO February,
Learned to read and write and spell
OF spelling book with chip and paper cover
In which the master made plod,
/ ne'er found 10 be so much a lover,
As of wild woods or grassy sod.
Pure stream thou must have been sometime taking
Upon thy stony bed nap
Or been like drowsy Samson, and not waking
From sleep in some Delilahs lap
Else how couldst thou with giant strength and forces
Be made to grind within mill
Submit to leave thine ancient rocky courses
And yield thine OWE to others will?

THE SLAVE TRADE.

If the Charleston Standard and the New York
Sunday Times will examine article on the "Slave
Trade" with more consideration, they will discover
that it is written in strain Of irony. We assure tie
Times that We have never advocated the revival of
the African Slave Trade; and protest to the Stag
dard, that we oppose the traffic on narrow ground
of commercial monopoly. With this explanation it
is fair to expect that New York and Charleston
friends w retract the criticisms to which an
conception Of our views has exposed US. The se-
res of articles on the Slave Trade, which have recent
ly appeared in the Standard are written with inds-
putable care and ability but they fail to convince
of the improperly of the position which the Enquirer
assumed Oh the subject sotne two years ago.
