"a Flash Of Southern sentiment

From the Cincinnati Commercial, Jan. 81
Rev. H. Ward Beecher; in a liberation
discourse preached some time since, ex-
pressed the hope that the South would re-
tain its manhood, and be tolerated in the
expression Of occasional flashes of
Southern sentiment" OAe of these
FLASHES lights up the Mobile Times in
the course of an article on Mr.. Beecher's
late address in Washington. In the opin-
ion Of the Times he is a Reverend agita-
tor" a a" bloodhound of Zion" a hypo-
critic who blows hot and cold, and all be-
cause be said
"That the emancipation promised by
Lincoln would mo- be complete till the
freedmen were given ell the rights which
belong to the white citizens of the Re-
public"
lThe Times thereat waxeth wroth, and
flashes its sentiments in the face of Mr..
Beecher, in the following lightning style:
R"Thus we have our Beecher again-the
same worldly, vulgar and foppish so-called
minister of a so-calied church located at
Brooklyn, where miscegenation, practical
and theoretical, is embodied in the doc
trines of a creed which has branded with
infamy the very gospel of truth, as being
the corrupt illusions of pro-slavery God.
We much prefer our same old Beecher as
nature, vice and education made him, to.
the false, lying hypocrite he attempted to
personate within the last few weeks. A
jackal is an ugly enough animal, but it is
better to confne it in charnels and grave
wards than admit it within the fold.0
1t is tolerably clear that MI. Beecher
will have as many flashes of sentiment
along the Southern horizon as he will have
the liberation and grace to solicit and en-
dure.

A Massachusetts AuthOress.
4 New York letter speaking of Harrie

New York letter speaking of Harriet
Elizabeth Prescott says:
Every one who has read the " Amber
Gods" the South Beach" Z" January and
May" or any other of her very clever
stor ss, knows how she abounds in color
and intensity, and reyels in the luxuriance
Of a passionate imagination and a voluptu-
GUS fancy. Yet she does not-what author
does, impress you at all as her writings do.
She has beautiful brown eyes, ripe red lips,
fine dark hair, and very pale complexion,
with a thin, eager, anxious face, whose ex-
preston indicates WEAKNESS and over
work. Her figure is tall, slight and angu-
lar, and her manner gives you the idea of
a practical, energetic, rather s~atirical per-
son, without the average degree of senti-
ment, romance or poetry that ONE of
culture and refinement possess.
Miss Prescott works, as her appearance
indicates, far beyond her strength; and is,
indeed, writing nearly all the time from
sheer necessity, as she has an invalid
mother, q paralytic father, three sisters
and a brother, all younger than herself,
dependent on her for support. She has,
for several years, been engaged to a lawyer.
in BOston-her first volume is dedicated
to him-but has deferred her marriage
again and again, until she has made more
ample provision for her family. Such
sacrifice and incessant toll are very noble
on her part, and prove how generous and
m~agnanimous she is. She says she is tired
to death of writing, and declares if she had
her way she would never take a pen in
her hand again, unless to write poetry,
which is the only species of composition
she likes. aai aaI - io hf

Death of Ms. Mary T.. scrfpus,

The telegraph has already announced
the sad intelligence of the sudden death
ofMrs. Mary E. Scripps, wife of E1-Post-
master scripps Of Chicago, in that city, on
New Years day. The event has caused
the deepest sorrow not only in the house
hold so suddenly and terribly bereaved
but throughout the whole city of Chicago
and wherever this refined, cultivated and
benevolent lady was known. Only those
who enjoyed the personal acquaintance of
the deceased-who could note her spright-
illness and geniality in the social circle
who could observe her generous and
thoughtful charity among the poor-who
could appreciate her winning and graceful
virtues at the family freside-can realize
the crushing weight of the affection which
has fallen upon the home which she once
made happy.
Mrs. Scripps was the second daughter of
Seth Blanchard, Esq, of Greenville, Bond
county, III, where she was born January
2, 1925. The family had been resident in
Illinois since 1919, when Mr.. Blanchard
removed to Bond county from his former
home in Massachusetts. Deceased was
literally educated in Monticello Seminary,
evincing talents that well repaid culture,
and acquiring attachments which were
throughout ornaments of her life. In
Is4s she was married to J.. G. Scripph
Esq, then one of the earliest pioneers in
the Chicago Tribune and came to that
city where she has since resided. She was
aver one of the most assiduous, thoughtful
and effective workers in all channels of
benevolence, and during the war was fore
most in the work of caring for the soldiers
in the field and for the soldiers family at
homo. The immediate circumstances of
her death are thus referred to by the Chi
cago Tribune:
With characteristic heartiness she had
entered into her New Years preparations,
and had stood an hour or two among the
earliest callers of the day. Her compan-
ion, tardily recovering from q prostrating
and protracted illness, was in an upper
room, whittier, from time to time, the
bright and loving presence that shall
greet his eyes no more, looked in upon
him, as if to lend him the sunshine that
was -i~rradiating the apartments of her
guests below. About eleven o'clock Hon.
j. 7. Scammcn and Hon. N. B. Judd,
with other guests, were at the house. The
former, shortly after entering, passed to
Mr.. Scripps' room for a few moment and
then rejoined Mr.. Judd below, when both
accompanied Mrs. Scripps to the table of
refreshments in the room adjoining. One
moment and all was in the full flow Of
geniality characteristic of the season. The
next, and the hostess sank lifeless into a
chair. Her spirit had passed from earthly
to heavenly mansions, to commence her
New Year in the upper home.

American NattonaI sonrs.

In a lecture on the Songs of the March
ing Soldier" George Alfred Townsend
says in substance:
Contrasted with the coarse, crude songs
of the Revolutionary war, we have found
ed a real lyric school That long contest
produced no great ballad; we only know
that the jerking and nasal numbers of
yankee Doodle" were good enough for
u fathers, and that they sang themselves
very tipsy owe the Battle of the Kegs"
The French revolution, clamorous with
~chorouses Of the armies of every land, re-
acted upon US who inspired it in no one
song for freedom. During the war of
1872 WI produced two or three sets of
verses to very venerable tunes. "The
Star Spangled Banner by traditional
priority and the dignity of its eadences,
has become the national anthem. The
true ballad literature of America began in
negro ministrelsy, and fromthese plains Of
cotton and corn, rice and sugar, where the
deadly issue of slavery has just been de-
creed rose on the catches of the weary
field hand the first rude aspiration of ma
tional music.
By a strong correspondence of senti-
ment, the educated lyrics of the country
took to their theme the shame of vassalage
and were embodied in the anti-slavery
poems of Whittier and Longfellow. The
first American song that rose clear and
high above the jar Of laws and commerce,
was the lyric of the HFlaunting Lie"
written by Charles F. Ralpine, better
known as SMILES OReiIly,f an Irish
American, of the State of Massachusetts.
The song bears out in full the declaration
of that sage, who cared not who made the
laws of the nation, so he composed its
slaves, and placed it at the beginning of
our national lyrical literature, because it
was written at that period when slavery
and humanity began their long contention
for the possession of the Union. The ma
ton, morally considered, was born with
this song. The "Flaunting Lie" took the
anti-slavery question out Of the hands of
reformers and put it in the mouths of the
people, who aftarward fought slavery out
of the Government. The author of it,
who would have been hanged by his coun-
trymen ten years ago for writing it, has
won and maintained the foremost place
among the poets Of the war. 4I

President johnson not a Candidate
for REORGANIZATION

The leading article in the Sandusky Reg
ister1 of the 5th inst, closes as follows
Not ten days since We happened to be
present at the presentation of a Missis-
sippi delegation to President johnson.
The spokesman of the reconstructed party
took occasion to compliment the President
upon the success of his policy toward the
South, when Mr.. johnson, in a converse
tional way, replied as follows:
"If | know my own heart, my highest
and only ambition is to be an instrument
in the hands of a higher power, in
restoring this Government to its
rightful condition by the speediest
method consistent with the public safety.
am not a candidate, and can afford to do
right. Of course in a work of such mag
nitude, difficult and unlocked for problems
arise, and we shall find that by doing one
thing at a time, most of these knotty ques-
tions will solve and adjust themselves.
Often my plans disappoint me, but 1 have
learned to do in my politics as I do in my
religion-when my facts fall, / rely on my
faith, and my faith is still strong that all
will be we'll" T
Will John Van Buren, now withdraw
his nomination of Andrew johnson for
President in 1858?
