But not in land where men are Slaves.

His shadow above my silent tomb
Would make il place Of fearful gloom
could not sleep Ii ! heard the tread
OF cattle gang TO the shambles led
And the mothers shrek Of Wild despair
Rise, like . curse on the trembling. air
could not rest, if / saw the lash
Drinking her blood at each fearful cash.
And if saw her babes torn from her breast,
Like trembling doves from their parent nest. %
I'd shuddcr ana start, if heard the bay
OF blood hound seizing his human prey:
And heard the captive plead in vain
Az they bound afresh his CALLING chain.
If saw young girls from their mothers arms
Battered and sold for their youthful charms,
Ny eye would fash with a mouraful flame
Ny death-palcd check grow red with shame.
would sleep dear friends where L!ooded might
Can rob no man of his dearest right:

Where ;.onc can call his brother slave

In beauty on a southern sky,
And as marked that fairy scene
So mild, 50 lovely and serene.
A strange wild sound, yet sweet aud clear,
In tones like these l chanc'd to hear
Fare thee well, Kitty dear
Thou art sleeping in thy grave so low,
Never more, Kitty dear,
Wilt thou listen to my old banjo,
Fare thee well Kitty, &c.
Though Aries son that strain awol,a.

And held me captive to its spell;
How much o. feeling deep and strong
Was blended with that artless song.
Fare thee well, Kitty dear, Ie.
Though years since then have rolled away,
The echo Of that simple lay.
Comes DER me when with care Oppressed,
And soothes my troubled heart TO rest;
Nor will ] till my latest hour
Forget the magic of its power.

tinue to be. submitted in both houses, looking
to an adjustment of penling difficulties, and
with the exception of the members from the
extreme Southern States, conciliatory spirit
seems 10 prevail, ..

House making appropriations for the payment
of invalid and other pensions aud for the sup

Mr., Powell's resolution for the appointment oil
paeiication committee of l3 has been adopt

elsewhere. As We. hope to be abe to give it

imperfect sketch received by telegraph. Isa
Nothing of special interest has transprcd
in the House. On Wednesday most OF the day
was consumed in discussing an item in an ap-
