[BY REQUEST OF AN OLD suDscRIDER.]
Old Grimes.

Old Grimes is dead, that good old man,
We nc'er shall see him more;
He used to wear q long black coat,
Ali bultoned down before.
His heart was open US the day
His feelings all were true--
His hair was some inclined to gray;
He wore it in queue.
Whenc'er he heard the voice of pain,
His heart with pity burned
The large round head upon his cane
From ivory was turned.
And ever prompt at PHYS call
He knew no base design
His eyes were dark and rather small;
His nose was aquiine.
lie lived at peace with all mankind
In friendship he was true O
His coat mad pecket-holcs behind
His pantaloons were blue.
Unharmcd by sin which Garth pollutes
lie passed securely Ger
He never wore pair of boots
For thirty years or more.
But good old Grimes is now at rest,
Nor fears misfortune's frown-
He wore double breasted vest,
The stripes ran up and down.
He modest merit sought to find,
And pay it its desert
He had no malice in his mind
No rufiles on his shirt.
His neigbbors he did not abuse,
Was sociab!c and gay
He wore largo buckles on his shoes,
And changed thom every day.
f. His knowledge, hid from public gaze,
Ilo did not bring 20 view
Nor make noise town-mceting days,
AS mlny people do.
His worldly goods he never threw
II trust to fortunes chances
He lived, as all his brothers do,
In easy circumstances.
Thus uudisturbed by anxious cares,
His peaceful moments ran
And everybody said he was
A fine old gentleman.
OLD Mrs. GRIMES.
Old Mrs. Grimes is living still
A widow still is she;
She dresses plain, and wears no frill-
She's neat as neat can be.
Both young aud old speak but to bless,
And none e'er saw der frown;
There's not enough put in her dress
To make another gown!
Although she's poor, her neighbors round,
Their wants she doth appcase-
Her dress it never drags the ground,
Nor sets above her knccs.
She goes to church when she's a'mind,
Nor sleeps and chatters there
Her. caps are. of the plainest kind,
Save one for sInd0y' wear y 79ss -
She says that her dead husband he
From Heaven is looking down
She buys the best Old IIyson lea,
At six-and-six the pound!
To 90 about in dcing coed,
She rises now be!imes;
She's called by al the ncighborhood,
The good "M .N,s. Crimes.

Greely on the Liberation of Mr.. Davis.

Greedy on the Liberation of Mr.. Davis.
The interest which Horace Greeley is TAX
ing in the libration Of Mr.. Davis, is NOT un.
derstood BIZ those who do not understand
Mr.. Greeley. He is n man of coarse bu,
kind nature, Of crotchety but strong mind, OF
wrong opinions but right sentiments, and
who likes to tell the truth and to do generous
things, when he can afford it. His conduct
is to be interpreted in the light of q great
failing. tt is not the failing Of which "Broth
or John" told Brother jim" when urged By
the latter to tell him his faults: The fact
is, Brother Jim, yon acW 81" 1t is not the
falling of Mr. Jones, who was O clever person,
but would get drunk"-for Grcely is q total
abstinence man. Greeley is sound on many
great political principles, and he makes no
secret of them; but like Brother Jim, with
his temptation, and Mr.. Jones with his Gree
ley has besetting sin that domiuat's him
completely. He surronders truth, honor,
conscience, political corsistency-eYerytfirg
TO lie negro!
He has openly proclaimed the right of Sc
cession. He denounccs war and sympathizes
with all the humanitarian movements. BuI
when the negro comes up, until he is settled
for, Greeley forgets or tramples upon every
oath he ever took. Hence he bounded Oh
the war, which, according to his own doctrines,
was un Just aud wicked, and took his share oi
the responsibility Of slaughtering million O.
men, He cared not for the orthodoxy OF Sc.
ce.sion, tho beauties ofpaace the demands Of
honor--tho negro swallowed up everything,
Having got the rcgro, Mr.. Greely does not
wish 10 harm Mr.. Davis. He wishes to see
him 90. He does not wish the South any
more of harm, any more violation ct our
rights, any more sacrifice Of our property
anv more sacrifice Of our lives, than are nc
cassary to carry out lis remaining policy
about the negro. Ia interference with Mat
he cares not q baubcc ior his duties thougl
board to them by oaths, Or fer our rights, ne
matter how guaranteed. Conccde him that.
and lie becomes q man again instead OF {"
monster
His creed teaches him that the seizures,
prescriptions taxation without representa-
ton, to which the South is exposed, are ur-
terly iaonstrous; but he waits 10 e%tor;
something out OF them for the negro before
he will g.ve them up. His platform is uni
versal amnesty for universal suffrage
which means that lie is in favor Of derilline
US no more, if VIC will let the negroes vote.
and Of dcyilling us till We 90. In short,
where the negro is concerned, Greeley is as
violent, cruel and remorseless politician as
ever cursed community; but take the ne
gro off his brain, and he is isrational, placable,
genial and generous. Fortunately fer MIR.
Davis, his Liberation does not affect the ncgr
question, and hence Greeley isrcmitted 10 his
sinily end his better impulses and hence
his generous efforts in behalf Of Mr.. Davis,
for which the South will give him the ap-

at the degradation of the white people Of the
South. This last you will not, and say it
in the name of the American people, you
shall not accomplish.
But there is something in the spirit of the
Southern people which will thwart your de-
signs. If they have lowered the standard Of
their Confedcracy, they have not lowered the
standard of their pride-a becoming pride in
the estimation of an honorable enemy. The
Southerner has all around him, without
speaking Of the merits of the late contest,
tokens OF the endurance, courage and prowess
of his people. Sad spectacle though it be, it
will not diminish his tone that he can on his
own soil walk over the graves of nearly three
hundred thousand Of his courageous enemies,
