positively refused TO accompany the policeman,
and sworo no would wait till tho rain was over.

voice we loved is s,illed:
place IS vacant at our hearth,
Which never can be filled.
We know our darling cherub child.
Has passed deaths gloomy portal.
We know her little spirit mild,
Has now become immortal.
Yet oh how much we miss her nov
When winters frosts are falling,
And every hour methinks hear,
My precious darling calling.
And every where turn my eyes,
see some little token,
Some book, or flower, or leaves that abe
So often used to handle.
y, Mary shall never feel,
Thy gentle arms entwining, ~
Around my neck, as oft you did,
with love aud mirth combining.
fhat fond caress, that wiiching smile,
Taat God 10 thee had given;
And shall never see thee more,
Until we meet in Haven.
Well, we will meet again above,

And parting griefs are known no more.

That | may meet my angel child

! MEMORIAL TO IMpEAcH THE PREsIDENr.-A
memorial to Congress- said to have been original
ly drawn up in New England, is quietly circula-
ting throughout the country for the impeachment
OF President Johnson. Copies of the paper are
seeking signatures in Tennessee and elsewhere,
though it is not stated whether the memorial has
attracted the signatures of any prominent persons
1t charges that prior to the war many persons
were of opinion that the President too great
and too Independent: of the control of the people
or their representatives" that during the war the
exercise Of his power has led to the most danger
Gus errors and corrupting abuses" and that since
the close of the war it has been exercised by
the present incumbent Of the Presidential Office
as to make the people and Congress appear alto
getber uninportant and insignificant, and to re-
mind the rejecting observer rather of the nstitu-
tons and power of an absolute monarchy than a
democratic republic" The memorials also say
tina; 1t is not compatible with popular govern
ment and free institutions ito permit the Presi-
dent to assume to himself the power of recon-
structing the government in the late -rebellious
States" They declare that to leave him in office
three years longer after his "abuse Of power" is
treason to the republic" and concludes with the
demand for his impeachment and removal on &C
count of misgovernment and contempt of the laws
of Congress-"
