70 A LOVED ONE H9oNB BHFORE

Thou art gone Deaths all-riumphtnt sword
Hath crossed thy path Ind loosed the "silset cord'
tjf thy young lfe and calld thee hence
Tn all shy blooming inf6cence.
Heaven claimed It's own, and twas not strange
that thou shcuid's st die;
Each vr.ce of mind and heart had marked thee
for the sKy.
lore could not shield the from The cruel dart,
Else 1t would ne'er have pierced thr gailess heart ;
Nor beauty. nor high gifts and hope could save
Thee from the silent selfish grave.
'Thoa are gone. o. how sad the thought!
TIE hours are now with sorrow fraught.
And all the world seems dark and dreaf
Since thy dear presenee ceased TO cheer.
Thou art gone But still eur souls do meet and
nnge with thiue ewni
Around eur hearts thy memory still doth cling iks

A Beaming sssf 10 guide o'e life stfoHbled sea.
Thou arr gone Tie morn of thy young lovely life
spalled.
Away from earth, with all ii care, thy gentle spirit
has been called,
And borne by angel wings TO BRIGHTER, happier
shore,
There to meet with loved ones who've gained the
crown before
Who. singing stand upon that happy land.
And smiling bid thee join their iappy band
While sister spirits bid thee come,
And seraphs gside you to their happy hone,
To share with them their blest abode
And the cet presence OF n smiling God.
Thou ar. gone But in the shining realms Of
bliss
Angelic host, have meet thee with smile and kiss
And there forever sII It thou rest,
Mid all the holy and the blest,
While heavenly pleasures round the roll.
And joya cclessa, fill thy soul.
"An arnaranthine chaplet wreaths thy peral brow"
Attendant angels stand and ait upon the now,
And call for the ambrosial sweets above
And fadeless pleasures in the courts oflove.
Thou art gone And ,hough We ne'er shall meet
again
In this dark world of sorrow. care an pain.
We shall meet upon happier shore
When this .'vanc parade of life" iso'er-
In that bright home beyond the sky.
Where parting tears ne'er dim the eye
W here sorrows sun has never shone,
Ard "fsrewell" is . word unknown
W here nought our spirits e'er shah sever;
There we shall meet AMI rest forever.

The following horrible illustration of the fendish-
ness of Aholitlonism is taken from the Cincinnati
Enquirer of the Goth instant:
"If war does come between the North and the
South,'' exclaimed one of our most pious Repub
can citizens few days since, ~ hope that the
slaves will rise and massacre every one of them"
(of the SOuth!)
"What, not all the Con,en and children! You
wouldn't want them murdered?" exclaimed an
other party in the conversation.
:" Yes, every one Of HeIe!' was the humane and
Christian reply.'
When such a wretch, as the utterer of the fore
going sentiment, can utter it and live it is evident
that the community about him entertain similar
sentiments in their hearts, whether their tongues
and lips have given expression to them or not.
The Cincinnati Enquirer is one of the boldest
and most honest papers published in the free
States, that we are cognzant of. Yet it had no
word of reproach to utter against the stupendous
villainy of the individual, one of its own citizens,
who gave expression to the sentiment quoted
above. 1t related the incident. That was all.
Perhaps it dared not make such comments as it de-
sired. We think it very likely such was the case

mourn in bitterness of soul. for your crueest and
most abominable achievement on which you most
prided yourselves, has been thrown into the shade
wholly eclipsed, by the unutterable and immeas-
urabe infamy of the Cincinnati Abolitionists.
Yet in the same issue of the Enquirer Virginia
is severely Iebuked for having seeded from such

Nothing of a particular nature turned up Or down
on the flags yesterday. There were many remarks
in regard to the seizure of The steamship Cahawba.
AS she was released, there was very little more
said. If LincOn'S minions choose to seize and fine
vessels in Northern ports, it is no guide for the
South to follow. The South does not expect to in
crease its revenue by interfering with legal trade
and commerce. Lincoln d Stewards proclamation
came to hand yesterday. 1t forbids the ingress
ana egress OF all vessels into the ports of the seven
Cohtederated States. We suggest that President
Aoe issue another including Virginia and North
Garohna. The further talk was, that two or three
British men-"f-war will he off the Balize in few
days. II our suggestions, made some days ago to
the Representative of The British Government are
carried out, the blockade will not be attennted
The further talk was in regard to the Black Re-.
publican troops at Cairo. The Memphis Bulletin
of Wednesday, says there were four hundred Ger
mans, who had duped the citizens of Cairo, and that
one hundred more were expected. The water is
very high around Cairo, and it is a very easy mat
ter to let the levee slip and set these troops on
swimming excursion. It is of no use to waste
powder and balls on them; the old Mississippi will
do the work by few Sits of the shovel.

New Orleans daily crescent., 1861-04-26

From the Memphis Bulletin of Thursday last
we extract the following:
We conversed with a gentleman last night who
left Cairo yesterday morning about 10 O'Clock, and
who reached Memphis about 81 O'Clock last even
ing. From him we learn that the precise number
of troops landed at Cairo on Monday night is $50,
and that they mostly raw German volunteers
from Chicago, and that 200 more had been left out
on the Illinois Central Railroad to guard and pro-
tect the bridges.
the people of Cairo all aback They seemed to re-
gard the sodery with distrust and suspicion. On
questioning the officers, they explained that the
force had been sent down there to protect the
peace and good order of the city, and to repress
mob violence from their own citizens! They also
alleged that one thousand more troops will be IN
Cairo during to. day wednesday, These pacific
purposes, it is believed by our informant, are
merely intended to deceive-ther real object be-
ing to lull the suspicion of the people until all the
force arrives, when they will proceed to put the
town under martial law, erect battery and other
defenses, and compel all Southern bound steam
boats to round to and deliver up whatever prOvi-
~ions, guns and ammunition are destined for the
South.
We learn that Hon. Milton Brown. President of
the Mobile aud Ohio railroad, Gov. McI}ae of Mis-
sissippi and H. Williams, Of jackson, Tenn, on
hearing of the military occupation of Cairo at
Columbus yesterday, proceeded forthwith to that
city to learn in person the precise object of the
concentration OF troops at Cairo, and particularly
to inquire whether any interruption OF the running
of the Mobile and Ohio railroad steamboat, con
meeting the Mobile and Ohio road with the Illinois
Central, is meditated. President Brown vas in
Cairo last night, aud we shall doubtless have his
views OF the occupation at an early date.
Our Informant states that the water is very high
around Cairo, covering the entire bottoms. and
leaving but precious ltte lane for military opera
tons. He also says the mosquitoes are terrible at
Cairo, and that the soldiers there are destined to
have anything but pleasant time under the cir
cumstances Of high water, mO,quitoes aud the su4-
plciun and d~trust OF the community in which
they are located. He also states it as his bpiet
that the military have not taken possession Of the

ing received message from that point since he Iett
there, and in which opinion We coincide.

[CiHcnnati Gazette 18th.
1t appears impossible for Northern Abohtionist
to tell the truth. He must tell falsehoods some
how, either by direction indirection, omission or
commission.
The editors of the Cincinnati Gazette know per-
fectly well that privateering is not piracy They
are fally aware that the Government of the United
States ever since it had an existence, has always
maintained the principle of privateering, and that
it asserted it and put it in operation during beth of
its wars with Great Britain. They also know that,
few years since, when France and England pro-
posed to put end to the prvateering system, the
Government at Washington positively refused to
agree to it, and that one of the abiest documents,
defending privateering as legitimate and proper in
time Of war; ever put forth from the State Depart
ment, emanated from the pen of Secretary Marcy.
q Pirates" and legitimate priyateersmen have
nothing in common; and the Gazette was guilty of
dirty thing when it spoke Of the " Seeessionists
turning pirates"
One valuable prize is now lying in the port of
New Orleans. We expect to hear of some hun
dreds Of prizes in short time. These prizes will
be taken in strict accordance with the laws OF war
and if any of these privateersmena should be cap
tnred, and murdered under the pretence that they
were piratesn the bloodiest Of retaliation will
promptly and certainly follow. The game Of war
is two-sided one.
