The Policy of Humanity.

Gen. Frank P. Blair. of Missouri, has
lately written letter to a meeting 10 St..
Louis, in which be gives utterance to the
following magnanimous and generous
sentiments. He says. in speaking of the
Radicals:
"Such persons are most persistent in
urging measures Of unnecessary harsh
ness aud indignity, in order to irritate
and goad our vsnquished opponents into
acts Of resistance which will justify the
inflic,ion Of still greater cruelty. Il
those brave and unfortunate people could
only be driven by their insults and con-
tumely TO such acts, it would fill the
souls Of their malignant prosecutors with
unspeakable joy and satisfaction, because
it would afford the pretext they seek. 10
deny the Southern people the rights OF
freemen and free States. These Jacobins
feel and know that it is necessary to dis
franchise the white race at the South as
affording them their only chance of re-
tanning power and position.
"W bat civilized nation on earth would
hesitate an instant, il the opportunity OF
fered, to incorporate with them selves tn
brave and heroic people CT the South
whose forti,ude and endurance in a mis-
taken cause challenge the admiration snt
respect of the world /? Would France
or England, or any other civilized power
hesitate to give such men the full and
equal rights accorded to all other cili-
gems? Would not those nations be mos
happy to claim as their own such men a.
Lee and Johnston. and to confer upon
these living heroes the rewards which
genius and courage have always com.
manded ? Would they fail to honor and
cherish, as a pant of their own glory,
the memory Of that illustrious throug OF
the dead, led by Stonewall Jackson ?
Their fame belongs to our name and ma
ton, and their survivors, animated by an
equal courage and devotion. and inspired
by what we hope and believe is a better
cause, will hereafter contribute equally
with the noble spirits of the North 10 the
renown of our great republic.
"Fellow. citizens, those who wish well
to the country and would secure its
greatest happiness. can have no higher
aspiration than that the peace you cele'
brate to-day may be perpetual"
American citizen. [volume] (Canton, Miss.) 1864-1890, 1866-06-16

LOVER THE RIYER.n

Among the many beautiful poems and ele-
CANT tributes to that great and good man
Stonewall Jackson, we have met nothing that
pleased US more than the following, which
was suggested by the last words of that
great Christian hero, which were, "Let us
cross over the river and rest under the shade
of the trees"
Over the river-over the river
There where the softlying shadows invite,
And famed by the south wind. the forest leaves
And tre.aes dance through the sweet summer
night.
Soldiers and comrades, we'll cross that broad river
Far from the tumult of trumpet and drum,
And the lannon's deep boom. and the fierce squad
As they reel in their saddles-then come, broth.
ers, come.
Over the river-over the river
Come ere the snn goeth down in the west,
Angel forms beckOn U.s. sent to deliver
1.-THE weary from labor. to offer him rest"
Over :he rver--over the river
Il the land where no shadow is needed or seen
Where the leaves Of the forest trees wither--no
And the fruits are all golden, the pastures all
green.
From the couch where the warrior lay stretched
and dying,
He saw in vision that country so fair
All its streams, and its valleys, its mountains out
lying
And the city whose gates are of pearls rich and
rare.
Over the river--that dark flowing river
Death bore the hero, and victor, and saint;
Great in earth s conflicts, greater than ever
When they left him bleeding and faint.
Waiting to cross tall radiant with glory,
Strong in the faith which is born of pure life
Bequeathing name in the records of story
That tell of bold deeds in the patriots strife.
