In the Nashville speech, Walker distinctly Do
clared that "his friends did not consider the war
ended" He asserted that hostilities must be
resumed, and the blood of martyred Americans
avenged. He invoked the sympathy OF his hearers
in behalf of his adopted country. What walker
means By sympathy is material add He wants
mep, money, arms, gunpowder and bullets, ana
any sympathizer who does not contribute these
will be regarded by him with very slight affection.
Pray why, we ask, should this Nicaraguan recruit

citizens to levy war upon the States of Central
America For less ofense we sent the EDghsh
Minister and Consuls back to their masters, and
there is no reason why Walker should not be put
into the Penteutiary, instead of having the aid OF
our guns to extricate him whenever be has got
a tight place. 1t does not make particle OF dill
ference whether we consider him as Nicaraguan
or As a citizen of the United States. Whether the
one or the other, he is equally guilty. Why will
our Government permit this anomalous condition

William Walker, although a notorious offender
against the laws of the United States is permitted
unmolested to perambulate the country, making
lying speeches, the only possible object of which
must be to provoke renewed crimes and to lead the
credulous into fresh msfOrtunes. AT the latest ac
counts, this malefactOr was heading for NewOr.
leans, with an eye, it is said, to the resumption Of
his bandit business. At Nashville he made
speech containing the usual number Of falsehOOds
and the usual quantity of inconsistent nonsense.
Of course, with the gratitude commonly exhibited
by such worthless, he abused the benefactor who
saved him from hemp and the haugman; lauded his
own military Skill 10 which he seemed to think
that foreign nations and future ages would do
justice; and belabored the poor devils who in run
ming from his ranks, escaped from tyranny, starva
ton, disease and final death. But there is small
need of analysis. Walkers speeches are all alike,
and he who has read one has read all this hero ever
has made or ever will make. They all begin with
the exploded falsehood that he went to Nicaragua
because he was sent for and they all end with the
hint of his intention Of going back again, whether
sent for or not
The hermapbrodite nationality of Mr.. William
Walker was very apparent in this Nashville out
pouring. He is kind Of double citizen Like
Desdemona, he owes "a divided duty" He is
half Nicaraguan and half citizen of the United
States. He shifts his allegiance with as much nom
chalance as he would shift his coat and not seldom
he performs this wondrous feat again and again in
the course Of single speech. In the very one now
before US, he dwells upon the fact that he had
been adopted by Nicaragua, and had virtually be-
come it, citizen" ard he asks if che was TO
"bssely skulk from country which had thus hon.
ored him. Then, nimbly skipping upon his
other horse, he declares that he could not be so
false to bis other Countrywide United States-and
to American principles. He went to Nicaragua to
assist in establishing it as an Independent State,
and at the time to assist in annexing it to the
United States. Now, it may be very. convenient
for this sgile marauder to indulge in these changes
Just as piratical craft carry the ensgns of all ma
tons, and hoist that which will secure immediate
safety But as honest cruisers do not much respect
this variety Of bunting, We think it is high time
for the Government Of this country to eau upon this
sweet William to define his position and to stick to
the definition. There are such things as the laws
Of nations, and gentlemen whose amor patrie is 50
unbounded that they arc not content with one
country are usually regarded by those laws as be-
longing to no country at all. Such vsultins an5i-

The Wyandot pioneer. (Upper Sandusky, Ohio) 1853-1868, 1857-07-02
Edgar A. Poe.

At course of lectures recently given
in Baltimore by DR.. McCabe, the follow
ing tribute to the genius of Poe was strl-
kingly and impressiyely read:
He was presented as stranger and
wonderful man of our own times and ac-
fundamentally in his weakness and
weak in his migbtiness. A subtle mind,
"a wizard of the pen-a combination OF
the worm and the God-of dust and del
ty-a modern Prometheus, chained to
the rock of a fatal moral malady-a man
who came an age before his time, and
passed away like the lightning from the
scroll of Heaven who conquered ere he
fell from the topmost round of the ladder
of Fame, but then fell ingloriously-a
man from the ark of whose soul the dove
went forth, to bring back no olive branch
to tell of the subsiding deluge OF the wa
ters Of sorrow that flooded over his soul
in whose window came the "dark ano
ominous bird of yore." croaking still Its
nevermore, forbidding the cup OF Nep-
tune, and staring with its wild and tery
ewes into all the convoluted labyrinths' Q
the past, plunging its beak into his prout
and bleeding heart; child of sorrow
and song, whose death robes were put o'
in a kennel and whose last sigh wa
breathed in hospital. Misfortune seem
ed to mark him from the cradle TO tn
grave. The house of a stranger was tn
homo of his infancy; he never knew

mothers love; and now his restless spi-
rit. like the wandering Jew, seemed ever
crying for " surcease of sorrow ;" and
when in the deep and passionate elo-
quence of desparing grief we hear him
sbrieking to the dark, impersonation of
his destiny
"Tell me, truly, implore,
Is there, is there no balm in Gilead
Tell me truly, l implore
Tell this soul with sorrow laden,
IF within this distant Alden,
shall clasp some sainted maiden,
Whom the angels name Lenore
Clasp rare and sainted maiden,
Whom the angels name Lenore?"
That solemn, hopeless response-Never
more-tells that not only did he nurture
the cypress of his grave, but that no voice
from out that distant Alden" whis-
|pered of peace beyond the portals of the
tomb.
Ah, that nevermore - How sadly
it strikes upon the soul as We recall the
circumstances of Poe's death He died
drunkard What comment upon tht
powerlessness of the noblest intellect, o
the highest genius, to struggle unaidee
against the demon of vicious habits !
There was balm in Gilead--there was
a physician there-and he might have
been healed. But no-he did not
would not apply the remedy-and ht

THE COUNT.

THE COUNT.
Deep night in New York! Night TO
the high and lowly-the vicious and the
wretched-to all, was it deep night!-The
gas-lamps threw pale and almost sickly
light upon the now almost vacated streets
for it was deep night! Now and then
vigilant watchman crawled out ofhis fa-
vorite drinking saloon. though not very
often, to see that nobody had carried off
the city! (The author intends this as a
Joke, and the reader is requested to
laugh.
In fashionable saloon on Five Points
in a stall, sat two men. One was Count
Alfred de Flunkey--the other, Henry
Podgers. son of old Podgers. wealthy
retired clam merchant The Count de
Flunkey was apparently about twenty
eight years old. He was dressed in ar
NOR, wore military cap. with feathers
and his feet were enclosed in Russet boots
His companion, Podgers, was about nine
teen years old He wore new suit c
ready made clothing, white hat, clot
pumps, and, in a word, his appearance
!, spoke the man of fashion. The ordinari
" handsome and ingenious countenanc
of the Count de Flunkey was now covere
with a frown. He was distracted. A
length, bringing his clenched fist dow
7 upon the table with tremend GUS force, th
Count cried:
"By Heaven, Sary Tompkins must
!. mine! Ho! without, there! Bring te
cents worth of gin!''
The gin was brought.
1t was drank!
And the Count, telling the bar-keep
to "charge it," left the saloon, arm-i
arm with his friend, the young and accol
plished Podgers.
