A HUNDRED YEARS TO COME.

Where, where will be the birds that sing,
A hundred years to come?
The flowers that now in beauty spring,
A hundred years to come?
The rosy lip,
The lofty brow,
The heart that beats
SO gaiy now?
Where will be loves beaming eye.
Joys pleasant smiles, and sorrows sigh
A hundred years to come?
Who'll press, for gold this crowded street
hundred years to come?
Who'll tread yon church, with willing feet,
A hundred years to come?
Pale, trembling age,
And fiery youth,
And childhood. with
Its brow of truth
The rich, the poor. on land, on sea-
Where will the ghty millions be
A hundred years to come?
We all within our graves shall sleep,
A hundred years to come?
No living soul for us will weep,
A hundred years to come?
But other men
Our lands will till,
And other men
Our streets will fill;
White other birds will sing as gay,
AS bright the sunshine as to-day,
a hundred years to come?

Ossawattamie Brown the world never knew.
His single virtue, linked with thousand
crimes was bulldog courage. Fanatic to
the highest degree-a pupil in politics Of the
Giddings school--he has been taught to be-

DESTROYED &c AL this had Rendered him
desperate and made him anxious for ven
ecance The argument of Greeley is ergo,
the "Border Rufiians" are responsible for the
Ilarper's Ferry conspiracy. Now all this
stuff is kicked over both by Brown himself
aud his dear friend James Relpath, a cores
pondent of the 7ribune Brown said, in
recent conversation with Senator Mason,
that he did not 90 to Kansas to settle, but be.
cause of the d;Gca1ties.' Now, hear what
Redpah saws which entirely corroborates
what Brown says of himself
"For thirty years he (Brown) secretly
cherished the idea of being the leader Of
seryile Instruction: the American Moses,
predesiued by Omnipotence to lead the ses-
vile nation in our Soulhe States to freedom:
if necessary, through the Red Sea of civil
war, or iiercer war of races. 1t was no
mad idea 'coucocted at fair in Ohio but
mighty purpose, born Of religious convic-
tions which he nourshed in his heart for
half lifetime When the horizon of free
dom looked gloomy in Kansas. he to- leave
Of his wife and the Younger children, and.
with several of his sons-tour or five of
them--wen out to Kansas. He thought
that the hour was approaching for his work
to begin"
Now we see what all Greeley's excuses for
Old Brown amount to. 1t is proved concu.
siveIy that he went to Kansas not as peace
ful settler, but for the purpose of do'ng just
achat he has done IN Vuginia, and the Re
publican" preachers and politicians supplied
him there with Sharp's rifles to 'lo what he
has now done. According to Redpath, his
purpose has always been the same. Surely
lhis revelation throws great light upon Kan.
sas affairs, and proves what has often been
contended, that the "Black Republicans"
supported these wretchcs in Kansas for the
purpose of forciblv attacking the institu-
tions of the South. OF course thousands
were deluded into the belief that it was all
done as a deerse against the Nlissourans,
but the leaders knew better oil the time.

must express himself on canvas in marble in
words, in melody! The writer without indvid-
uality may be elegant and elaborate but his
thoughts breathe not, his words burn not; the
painter may learn the rules of his art, but ifhe
cannot emhody fancy or an imagination that
shall distinguish him from his fellows, none
will look twice at his canvas; the actor even,

this individuality into their efforts, or the salt
