Knights were well in the feudal days; =
Kings, when the people were dumb as cattle -

Schemers in ink, when the sword was a pen -

And war clangs fierce, send us men! send

Men who assume no clerical mastership,

Men whose first study is always to be men.
Send us men for the public stations,
Leal and honest and brave and wise;
Thoughtful beyond their pay and their rations,
Parleying never with traitors and spies
Men whose works and promises tally;
Men who build upon principles grand;

Loyal in spite of high taxes and prices;

Henry Ward Beecher and the President

Henry Ward Beecher, as we learn from the

Tribune have been laboring comparatively,
OF late, iu opposition to Mr. Lincoln, iuter-
chaugaby inserting each others articles on the
Presidential succession, with commeudstion.
1t is well, therefore. for the public to under
stand that Mr.. Beecher is not now The editor
OF the Independent. aud therefore is not re-
spouslble Tor us political articles. A few days
since Mr.. Beecher made speech 10 Philadrl
phia, 10 Which he spoke Of the president as
| follows:
"Mr. Lincoln is the homely President OF
