LOVE IMMORTAL.
BY GORDON REVERE.

Time may bow the youthful form,
And the bloom Of beauty wither,-
Love immortal wears a charm
AL the darts of time can't shiver.
Like the vine which grows on earth,
But whose flowers high are given,
Human hearts give love its birth,
But it blooms and bears in heaven.
Born in agonies and pain,
And conceived in thoughtless folly,
Light as bubbles on the main,
And its fate as melancholy.
Like the rainbOws in the spray
1t before the vision rises,
Fair and phantom-like as they,
We pursue but it despises.
Like the mirage on the plains
Of a crystal lake in melton,
1t the thirsty soul disdains,-
Melts like mist upon the ocean.
Bright its dreams as pageants fair
In magic world revolving,
But its castles melt in air
Like set of views dissONing.
Like the scenes Aurora spreads
Over Arctic skies at even,
Is the halo that it sheds
Round our pathway up to heaven.
Thus the bright illusion, dear
Like restless spirit haupts Us,
Warns with hope and chills with fear.
Still with hollow mock'ry taunts US.
Wouldst thou know the reason why
Earth-born love, immortal growing,
Doth our mortal arms defy
Till we pass deaths river flowing?
'Tis because our discOntent
Ev'ry cup of pleasure dashes,
Turns the prize for which life's spent
On our lips to bitter ashes.

Peaoe!" spread through the city at the top
of all voices. No one stopped to enquire
about "free trade and sailors rights. I"
No one enquired whether the national
honor had been preserved. The matters
by which the politicians jhad irritateds the
nation into the war, had lost all their i'm
portance. It was enough that the ruinous
war was over. An old man on Broadway
attracted BY the noise to his door, was
seen to pull down a placard, "To Let, "
which had been long posted up. Never
was there such Joy in the city. a few
evenings after, there was general illumi-
nation, and although the snow was foot
deep, and soaked with rain, yet the streets
were crowded with men and women, eager
to see and partake of everything which
had in it the sight or taste of peace.

Editor Republican:

Sabbath morning, and was surprised to find
q very important part of the church service

well for the Commander of the Post to send an
order to Rev. Cooley.
The editors reply embodies a story of
Gen. SHERMAN, as follows:
We publish the above in obedience to q re.
quest from soldier, and will answer it by re-
peating what Gen. Sherman Is reported to have
said when one Of these rebel Episcopal divines
lowed to pray for JEFF. Davis. The General
replied, Pray for JEFF. Davis, why certainly!
You ought to pray for him every day, for Jeff.

y GENERAL. GRANT ON THE MEXICAN QUESTION
There can no longer be any doubt as
to. the position of General Grant on the
Mexican question. In the speech of Mr..
Beekman welcoming the great soldier Of
the Union the other night the orator,
turning from the rebellion, said, "Euro-
pean ambition had striven to establish another
empire over . sister republic. Macmillan, by
strange arms, has boon forced upon her brave
and unwilling people. Fouler wrongs never
outraged human rights than the present occu-
patton of Mexico by the French. We sympa-
thize with our sister republic in her hour Of
need, and firmly believe in her coming de-
liverance." To which General Grant replied:
II hope that You will excuse me from doing
anything more than thanking you; but there is
one sentiment uttered that is mine, and that is
the one touching the future Of Mexico" He
believes lin her coming deliverance." This,
upon the heels Of General Logan's appointment
as Minister to the Mexican republic, means
something.

MINISTER TO JAPAN.-It was announced in
our Washington dispatches yesterday that the
President had appointed Chauncey M. Depew,
of this State, Minister to Japan. This is, un-
questionably, good appointment. There has
been for long time considerable doubt as to
the number Of people in that kingdom; and
who can better solve that question than Census
MIDDLE Depew? In order, however, to make
his enumeration perfect, he should take with
him DR.. Hough, the superintendent of the late
census in this city; and we have no doubt
that the disputed question as to the popula-
ton of the japanese islands will be satisfAc-
torily solved.

The FENAN PANIC IN CANADA-ToRoNr0 m
AR@.-The Fenians are playing the very deuce
among the Canadians. Her Majesty's loyal
subjects over the Northern border arc thor
oughly frightened. They evidently believe at
Toronto that they are in danger Of being COB
bled up at any hour of any night, provincial
capital, government officials, archives, arms
banks, soldiers and citizens, by the Irresistible
descent upon them Of hundred thousand Fee
mans, in battle array, led by some Of the vote
rams Of Grant. Sherman and Sheridan. "Where
there is 30 much smoke there must be some
are" We cannot imagine that the authorities
and citizens Of Toronto would be mastering
their armed volunteers, placing guards around
public buildings and private houses, and hold
Ing their artillery horses harnessed TO their guns
all night, unless they had some pretty good
reasons to fear an attempt at Fenian surprise
The presence in Toronto Of considerable
number Of disbanded soldiers from the United
States certainly is suspicious circum-
stance. What business have these strangers
in that out Of the way place at this season Of
the year! May they not be the leaders Of a
vast gathering of Fenians hid away in the sur
rounding forests, awaiting the signal to come
out? The provincial and local authorities at
Toronto, at all events, are preparing for the
worst. Thcy have seen enough during the last
four years in the rebel invasions from their
side of the line over among "the Yankees" to
know that against such border forays, with the
Fenians afoot, no place in the Canadas along
their whole frontier, or for hundred miles or
more inland, is safe from one night to another.
What can we do for the security of our Ca
madam neighbors against these Fenians?
What more can our neighbors ask than
their own neutrality? Why don't they
call upon Jake Thompson and George
Sanders? One good turn deserves another.
It is in the guilty consciences of the Ca
nadians, no doubt, that we shall find the
secret of their present fears and tremblings.
They have, however, some plausible groundsfor
their alarm when 1t is remembered that there
are two hundred thousand able-bodied men
among the Fenian brotherhood In the United
States, and that the blow they mediate against
the power of England naturally suggests, as
their first step, a descent upon Canada as
base Of operations.
