Southern Sentiment.

A subordinate officer of Gen.
Grierson's command, says the
Memphis Bulletin, writing from
Alabama to the indianapolis Jotr-
NIL. states that in the event of q
war with Mexico, all ex-Confede-
rates will join the French If
this were true, to whom shall such
conduct of Southern people be as
cribed? Within a month after
Dick Taylor's surrender, a brigade
of Forests command proposed to
join the Liberals. The Mexican
agent at Southern city had no
funds. This action of these sol
diers was induced by their own
poverty, and by the liberal terms
of conquest then defined by the
President, Grant and Sherman
If any change has supervened in
the feelings of eX-rebels, it can
only be ascribed to the conduct of
Radicalism in Congress. 1t is we'll
for the country that Radicalism in
Congress is not confounded with
the Government; otherwise, the
Union would become odious, and
in case of foreign war, we might
have half IA million of enemies in
our midst. After a time Sumner
and Stevens will have exhausted
malignity, passions of excite
ment will subside, new Congress
will convene, and then unity shall
bercstored to the American States.
That itexists not to-day is no fault
of Southern soldiery or people.

A DREAM.

One night v - l Wa, slInoering sweet
Upon old Morpheus tranquil breast,
] bad a dream which made me think
That | forever more WAS blest.
tn pught that al the love on earth
lad turned into a flowing sea,
AID Ger it, in a graceful boat,
Ny sweetheart sailed along with me.
Our boat was bright as bright could be,
As if it was made by hands above,
She gently rocked along in peace,
While rlow.ng through the waves of love.
No furious wind was on that Sea
To risk our boat upon the shore,
But gently er its breast we went,
To dwell IN love forever more.
The waves of love that rolled along,
Kissed by the shining moon on high,
Did sweetly smile at me and her,
As gently we went sailing by.
Bright love was all we e'er could see,
Except the shining globes above,
While 10 our boat We gently sailed,
Upon the mighty sea of love.

A few days stree, young man
called upon some lady friends, and
was ushered into the parlcr by a
servant girl. She asked him what
name she should announce, and
he, wishing to take the ladies by
surprise, replied, "Amicus," Ia
frlend.) The girl seemed at first
a little puzzled, but quickly re-
gaining her composure, she in the
blandest manner, possible, OBJ
served, "What kind of a cuss did
you say, sir?" The visitor was
embarrassed for a moment, but
recovering, handed her his card,
and vowed neyeragain to use Latin

A retiring Western editor says
that call is vanity From the
hour he started his paper to the
present time, he has been solicited
to lie upon every given subject,
and can't remember ever having
told a wholesome truth without di-
minishing his subscription list, or
making an enemy. Under these
circumstances of trial, and having
a thorough contempt for himself,
he retires in order to recruit his

/ sunshine, sufocating for breath il
Gods beautiful, boundlessair. A
the end of the proper period, wheI
all tokens of vitality became ex
tinct, they cut him down, and the
bereaved young widow sprane
from her covered carriage, anc
rushing forwards, cried wildly
'Imhis wife and claim his corpser'
The Sheriff hesitated. when the
brutal voice of Colonel Banks vo.
citerated-"You dare not grant
her request, for, according to the
sentence, the body must be given
to a surgeon, and here stands the
doctor ready to receive it"
do you hear the man-fend?-
oh, ye sons who have drawn milk
OF loving mothers !-ye husbands,
who have fond wives at your hap
Ply hcmes do you hear this mur-
derous monster, that insults the
affection of the living and wars
with the ashes of the dead p
Away with him to the hell which
his presence would pollute!" ex-
claimed Juliet, with lightning in
her looks, and in tones that runp
above the clamor of the crowd
like the blast of trumpet in bat
tie.
The effect was magical. The
long pent-up wrath of the multi
tude broke forth in shout appalI-
ing as thunder. Some placed the
body In the widows carriage, while
she leaped in beside it, and the
black driver urged his four horses
to the speed of a whirlwind At
the same instant, others overpow-
cred the Sheriff and his posse, and
shut them up in their own Jail.
But the majority of the phrenzied
throng confined their rage exclu-
slvely to the gambler, Colonel
Banks, the ruthless prosecutor.
The bustling.billows of the ocean
Of angry forms rolled over him,
yelling like beasts of prey. They |
pulled him hither and thither in |
iifferent directions, literally tram |
pied out the last spark of his life. |
md then hung his frightful corpse |
IN the gallows.
In the meantime, the covered |
carriage flew onwards towards the |
mountains of the Blue Ridge; and
within an hour, by bleeding, and
otherskillful means, the
'rave wife succeed in resuscitating

writer, who was present at his ex-
cution, met him afterwards in
'ennessee, to which state his beau
lful Juliet removed with him, q
ew days subsequent to the catas-
rophe; and indeed as the pardon
f the Governor came on, in due
lme, there remained no motive
or concealment, and the fact of
ne singular resurrection, in a
rlef period, transpired, to the
reat joy and intense wonder of r
ne very people who had seen him
