ISLES OF THE BLEsr.

Who has not dreamed of the Fortunate Isles,
Those Isla nds of bliss and rest,
That lie, a. the olden legends tell.
In the unknown sea of the West,
Who has not yearned fer the apples of gold
That hang from abrosial boDghss
Who has not sighed for the nectarous tide
That from grove and from mountain fo.s!
Isles of the blest!
vainly sought in the purple West
Many bark with a swelling sail,
The trescherous has tried:
Many q mariners fearless breast
The storm and the wave defied,
And hour after hour. from dawn to dawn,
The watch has been bravely kept;
The mariner himself has sat at the helm,
While the wearied sailor slept.
But forever away,
On wave undiscovered, the Islands lay.
Fragrant blossoms and boughs Of palm,
have fioated out on the tide,
And birds with the sunset fire on their wings
Have perched on the vessels side:
But never more than rosy cloud
Half seen in the evening light,
Has brought to the eager lips the cry,
The Isles the Isles are in sight,
A moment more
Gone was the cloud. the light and the shore.
Last night a spirit spoke with me:
Dost thou faint for the far of prize!
il Il not enough tn watch and wait,
And to trust each wind that flies,
In the days when all bright omens tell
That the goal Of delight is near
When the pillows blossom with drifting flowers,
And the birds of promise appear?
to oarss to oars.
Strike boldly on to the clouded shores.
For BY stern and mighty spirits held
In q strong enchantment bound
No signing hope and no yearnng dream,
Can win that hallowed ground.
But the resolute will and the daring hand,
In the battle with angels strong.
Shall wrest those Isles from the mystery
That has shrouded them so long
After the strife,
Glorious thy rest in those gardens of life.
o fortunate Isles! o Frightening realms.
Your glories yet may find;
For my sails furled, have seized my oars,
have left my dreams behind,
have learned that watching nor prayers will ri
The triumph for which long;
Through nober toll and endeavor beam
hebeautiful shores Of song.
Enough. if at night
may sing: The Isles! the Isles are in sight.

paddle box, and scrutinized sharply ev-
cry female coming on board, every now

depths of capacious fob, by means of
n powerful steel chain. After mount
ing guard in this manner. he dashed
furlously down the gang-plank and up
the wharf, re-appearing again on board
almost simultaneously, expressing the
most intense anxiety. This series of
operations he performed several times,
after which he rushed about the boat
wildly, and hopelessly calculating:

The Lords Of the LASH" are still the
Lords Of the Soil, and the poor white is
where he was, out in the "piney woods" !"
poor and barren as they are, nor does he
see anything better for him. Had he at
any time bit of ground in the rich
lands he had no rest from his rich
neighbOr until he sold it to him, then
moved out In the "backwoods. The
rich had the country-and they have 1t.
They seem to be the efavorites of the Gov
ernment. They are now fourishing in
their stores, and on their plantations,
all the same as ever. True they have
lost some slave property. But then they
are big with hope that they can make
the United States pay for their slaves,
when things get settled little!-when
they and your Copperheads get the Gov
ernmenn. And let me remark by the
way, the course of the President seems
we'll calculated to bring about such q
