POETRY.
OLD LETTERS.

The rain was blowing In quick, white gusts;
With yellow leaves the air was darkling;
The storm was moaning Of death ana graves
No moon dared shine, no star was sparkling.
The elrns we're roaring around the.house
With a frantic grief and Wild despair;
The wind gave a warning Banshee wall,
From the beggaTed wood that was all but bare.
Then I opened the casket once 80 dear,
And took ont the letters I'D kissed 30 OF:
The paper was stiM by the rOse-leaf tinged:
Its breath was ike hers-sO sweet and so soft.
Slowly as one at a sacrifice,
With face sveFtsd, I fed the flame:
Ruthless and cruel. the serpent tongues,
Swift and eager and leaping came. ... "a.
Hopes and joys, they we're dreams and air;
sat down sad by my funeral pile,
And heard the roar Of the ruthless fire,
And "God forgive hers mOAned the while.
There was a blaze, and Of crimson glare,
waving pyramid tail and keen;
Then there came wait Of smOuldering smoke,
That rose in a Circling, vapOry screen.
Melesger's fagot-sO went my life,
Spring, and summer. and autumn, too;
Its daybreak promise. its ripper thoughts,
Its tears Of sorrow, its sunshine dew. ss
sat like mOurner beside the pile;
All had loved had passed away;
Nothing for me but 90 hope for flowers
To bloom and gladden. my burial clay.
There lay my life-a crinkliHg heap
OF curling ashes that fell to naught;
glitter Of one or two passing sparks rn
That was all my love had brought.

True enough, it is the devil that Capt.

The COTTON CroD Ia NTInsIssIppi.

A Mississippi cotton planter, writing
from the northern portion of that State to
the Nelo Orleans Times says: h
81 observed In recent number OF your
paper that we had, short time since, q
correspondent of the Messrs. Nelll, Broth
ers d Co., of Liverpool. travelling in our
vicinity, reporting the prospects OF the cot
ton crop. He, like all other cotton cores
pondents of English journals, will Insist
upon overrating the growing crop In this
country; they come among us and say that
the planters whom they consult will under
rate the crop, when they tell him there Will
not be half crop made on the land that Is
planted. sra I'M r bt4 t,N,
"Thisg gentleman gives our poor, desolate
State a most iattering prospect, when he
says it will make four hundred and nifty
thousand bales, and would go very far to-
wards relieving the oppressed planters of
I their Indebtedness; but If it makes one
/ half that amount it will surprise me. Out
side the Mississippi and Yazoo valley, there
will not be One-eighth of the crop OF 1850
made in Mississippi. aa
From Sharkey's landing to the mouth
of the Tallahatchie, near Greenwood, the
cotton crop up to the 20th Of August was
as good as ever saw it; 1t had been gen.
erally we'll worked, and tolerably well
managed; and with the exception Of an oc-
casional bad stand, 1t was very promising.
Cotton, though small cup to July, COM
menced to grow rapidly and never saw
more bolls than there were at the date
mentioned. Then commenced the rains |;
the young bolls began to shed, and later
still, the bolls began to rot, when the injury
became very serious. About the middle of
September there appeared worm, destroy
ing the cotton leaf and occasionally a
young boil toward the top but we Thought
they really did cotton a benefit, eating the
leaf and causing the boil to open earlier, on
account of exposure to the sun. "a
"But Notwithstanding these drawbacks,
the crop in the limits have mentioned
will be nearly an average one, for the rea-
son that there is more land in cotton and
less in corn than | ever saw before; there
is hardly place that is not in cultivation,
and generally more negroes on them than
before the war not many negroes ever left,
and this winter there were great many
imported. NJ.
sand strange to say, from several causes
the freedmen, with a few exceptions, are
doing and have been doing very well; as

well as when they were slaves l have less
trouble, and they work as well as they for
merly did. Whether i would admit this
twelve months ago, is another question;

President johnson Will Not
Change his Policy. p

Specials, credible in their character, say
that President JOHNSON will not change
his policy because the elections have re-
suited in favor of the Radicals. If it shall
please the Southern States to adopt the
Constitutional Amendment, it will be all
right; but he proposes to allow them to
do just as they please in relation to that
Amendment. There is no need of specu-
lating as to what they will do with it. 1t
is not a subject for speculation. They will
refuse to ratify it. Otherwise than main
tain the position that the Southern States
are in the Union as co-equal States, the
President cannot in view OF the position
he has heretofore assumed. If the Southern
States will not ratify the Amendment, win
the Radicals attempt to force upon them
conditions that are more repugnant and
more in violation OF the Constitution |?
Dare they undertake the infiction OF meas
ures dictated by hate and vengeance, that
in their nature will proIonG the distracted
condition of the country, II it shall not
produce that which Is worse? 20

A Source OF sn,I.fi,ctron.

Itwas source Of much satisfaction to
meet Democrats on Thursday from yari-
GUS parts Of the State, and to see them
show the pluck they did. A set of men
more resolved to cease not in their labors
to defeat revolutionary Radicalism we have
never seen. They have come out of the late
contest stronger in their faith and more en-
couraged than they have been for many
years. Glad we were to see among the men
who came up TO the city to counsel with
regard to the future Of the Democrat
ic party so many young men. 1t
is q good omen. When young men take an
earnest interest in what relates to the suc-l
cess of party, 1t may be accepted as a
truth that the party is on the high road to
success. The Democrats throughout the
State, in sending up Delegates to the Demo-
cratic State Convention on the sthi of JAN
uary, will do well to send up agood pro-
portion OF active young Democrats. To
them we must look for great assistance in
the work Of the political redemption of the.
