My Father.
BY HON. HENRY R. JACKSON, OF GEORGIA

BY HON. HENRY R. JACKSON, OF GEORGIA
As die the embers on the hearth,
And DER The floor the shadows fall,
And creeps the chirplng cricket forth,
And ticks the death-watch in the wall
! see form on yonder chair
That grows beneath the waning light
There are the wan, sad features-there,
The pallid brow, and locks of whte
My Father! when they laid thee down,
And heaped the clay upon thy breast,
And left til s!eeping all alone.
Upon thv narrow couch Of rest,
know not why l could not weep
The soothing drops refused to roll;
And oh that grief is wild and deep,
Which settles tearles, on the soul!
But when saw thy vacant chair
Thine idle hat upon the wall
Thy book-the penciilpd passage, where,
Thine eyes had rested. last of all;
The tree beneath whose friendly shade.
The trembling feet had wandered forth
the very prints those feet had made
When last they teebly trod the earth;-
And thought, while countless ages fed,
Thy vacant seat would vacant stand
Unworn thy hat, Thy book unread.
Effaced thy footsteps from the sand
And widowed, in this cherries world,
The heart that gave its love to thee -
Torn, like u vine, whose tendrils curled
More closely round the falling Tree!
Oh! Father, then. for her and thee,
Gushed niady forth the scoichlng tears,
And Oft, and long, and bitterly,
Those tears have gushed in later years;
For, DIS tile world grows cold around,
And things take un their real hue,
It sad 10 learn hat love is found
Alune above the stars with you.

this question involved matter of more practical
Importance than such often come before political
