Pollard on Beeci.er.

The notorious Pollard saws ia his Ertmnr:
"Whie North we encountered that reverend poll
tican Beecher on a railroad train in which he was
on his way to Ncwburgh, N. Y, there to deliver a
lecture. A chang seems to have come over the
spirit of his dream In convers, : with us he
avowed himself an uncompromisng peace man.
Blood enough, he thought, had now been split, and
he was for mercy. forgiveness, and forbearancc.
He admitted tina: his former violent views had be-
come modified, and he now cordially endorses the
Union policy of the President. He alluded to the
case OF Mr.. Davis, and expressed the hope that he
would be tried, if at ALL By civil tribunal, and, il
convicted, pardoned He contended that the pow
er of Mr.. Davis for mischief was forever gone
and that no good could result from his execution
We were somewhat surprised to hear such senti
ments from such source; but the conversation
and general bearing of the great political preache
impressed us iavorably." -51.'s

Another Genius.

An undeveloped genius has lately been discov-
cred in Ireland in the person of a had sixteen
years of age. The lad has constructed ennteiy
unaided, a piece of machinery in full motion, oc-
cupying ground space of some six or eight feet
square; and driven by small water wheel about
four feet in diameter. On close inspection it was
found that the various wheels, cogs, cranks, and
spindles were entirely Of wood, and were perform
ing, simultaneously, the varied operations oil
pumping, chutning, hammering on an anvil, per-
nendicular saw, etc. but SO eleverly adapted to
these respectiye.uses that the whole was driven
with the most perfect and easy motion by the wa
ter wheel already alluded to. The lad is the son
of blacksmith living in Knockruth, county ol
Wicklew, and has never been ten miles from
home. 49, s'i

UNWRITTEN POEMS.
By MRS. c. II. BOOTH.

There are poems unwritten and songs rnsung,
Sweeter than any that ever were heard
Poems that wait for an angel tongue,
Songs that but long for paradise bird.
Poems that ripple through lowlcst lives,
Poems unnoted and hidden away
Down in the soul where the beautiful thrives
Sweety as flowers in the air of May.
PONIES that only the angels above Us,
Looking down deep in our hearts, may behold,
Felt, though unseen, by the beings who love Us,
Written ON lives as in letters of gold.
Sing to my soul the sweet song that thou livesti
Read to me the poem that never was penned-
The wonderful idyl of life that thou givest
Fresh from thy spirit, o beautiful friend.

Grant ANA p0IFard.

Mr. Pollard has resumed the publication Of the
Richmond Examiner. by permission of the Prosi-
dent. who revoked the order OF General Grant, On
the following written pledge given 10y Pollard;
"WAsHrNGrox. Feb Il, lSCG.
To the President:
If the publication ofihe Richmond Examiner is
permitted to be resumed, promise that it shall
support the Union, the Constitution and the laws,
and thcpolicy of your Administration. | have tue
honor to be, Your Cbedient servant,
III. RIvEs POLLARD"
The iiIasciblc Pollard does not think so highly
Of the suppression of newspapers as he formerly
did when anti slavery presses, and subsequently
Union newspapers were DESTROYED by mobs, or by
Confederate military orders. Nor has he any
great admiration for General Grant, who sum
marily closed his treason mill. OF his interview
with him, he says:
81 that officer but once, when he refused
emplatically to revoke the order FOR the seizure
of the Office. 1t was evident that had nothing to
hope from him, for he said me expressly that if
he had the authority, he would that day, suppress
the New York News, the Cincinnati Enquirer and
the Chicago Times, adding that the "Copperhead
papers of the North, as he designated them, were
doing quite as much harm IS the papers in the
South. Deriving no satisfaction from him, was
| forced to appeal to the President"
IL Po,lard's Testimony is true. Gen. Grant has a
correct appreciation of the "Coppeihead papers of
the North" but his plan OF dispos;ng OF them is
unnecessary now. The country was able to prose
cute the 10 a successful conclusion notwith-
standing their opposition, anu it can survive their
pretended friendship in time of peace. They are
undoubtedly great ruisances and productive of
mech evil, but our citizens have other sources of
political information than dis!oyal newspapers,
which un ortunately most Of the Southern people
have not.

BY y. p. WILLIS.

Ia y. T. WILLIS.
Tsey may talk of love in a cottage,
And bowers Of troIlsed vine
And nature bewtclingly simple,
Aud miikmaids half divine;
They may talk of the pleasures of sleeping
IN the shade o. spreading tree,
And walk in the fields at morning
BY the side Of Il footstep free.
But give me n sly Irritation,
By the light of a chandelier
With music 20 play in pauses,
And nobody very near;
Or seat or silken sofa,
With glass of pure old wine,
And mama too blind to discover
The small white hand in mine.
Your love in cottage Is hungry,
Your vine is nest for flies
Your milkmaid shocks the Graccs,
And simplicity talks of pies.
You lie down to your shady slunlbcrs
And wake with bug in YOUR ear
And your damsel that walks in the morning
Is sllod like mountaineer.
True love is at home on carpet.
And nightly likes his case
And true love has an eve for dinner.
And starvos beneath shady trees,
His wing is the fan of lady,
His foot is an invisible thing,
And his arrow is tipped with level,
And shot from silver string,

To tie assistant Commissioner:
DEAR SIR: Anticipating the excitement that
will necessarily follow the action of the Govern
mcnt with reference to the new freedmen's bill,
you may feel somewhat embarrassed in the duties
devolving upon you under the law and regulations
already existing. That you may act steadily and
firmly in any emergency, you must be prepared for
any increased hostility on Il part of those who
have so persistently hndered and troubled you
and your agents, and there may be an increased
restlessness among the freedmen.
The President has assured the Commissioner
that he regards the present law as continuing the
existence of the Bureau at least year from W.
Please ascertain and report what steps have bscn
taken in your districts by the State and municipal
authorities to provide for the absolutely INDECENT
| and suffering refugees and freedmen who have and
are being thrown upon the General Government
for support. Continue to use every possible ef-
fort to find good homes for orphan minors who are
people in the different cities aud vilages by aid
dependent, and discourage the accumulation Of the
ing the unemployed to find homes and labor.
You have succeeded in allnying strife, arrang
ing labor and promoting education inthe midst
OF great difficulties. Continue with your ut
most efforts to pursue the same course so as
to demonstrate to the people of your district the
good intention of the Government and the com
plete practicabity Of the system of free labor
GIVE thorough supervision 10 every agent iof
whom you are responsible. Immora'ities, cor
ruption, neglected duty and iucapaeity some
times the cause Of many and serious complaints. -
| II either ofihcse charges be sustained on investi
CATION, the guilty party will be at once removed
whether he can be replaced or not -s9
Thanking you heartily for the interest and Fl
deity YOU have thus far sustained, the Commits
sioner is pleased to express an unwaverng conf
dence in your ability to cope with any new diff
cultics that may arise am, very respectfully,
A, Your obedient servant, 1854
