The Masonic Record.

The first number of the Masonic Re-
cord,' by Messrs. John Frizzell q Co, ed
itors and proprietOrs, Nashville, has come
to our table. AS it name indicates, it is
devoted to the interests Of the Order of
Free and Accepted MasOns. The Record
begins with very fatteriug prospects, and
contains sixty -four pages of varied and ex-
ceedingly interesting reading matter. 1t
affords an excellent medium for advertis
ing, as its circulation will be among the
most enlightened and best class of readers.
To Judge the future merit and prosperity
of the magazine by the present number,
we should say it must necessarily prove a
success. Terms 50 per year.

THE REAUrY OF Old AGE.

I often think each tottering form
That limps along III life's decline
Once bore a heart as young, as warm,
As full of idle faults as mine
And each has had its dream of joy,
It's own unequaled, pure romance,
Commencing when the blushing boy
First thrilled at lovely woman's glance.
And each could tell his tale of youth,
Would think its scenes Of love evince
More passion, more uneaTthly truth
Than any tale before Or since.
Yes they could tell of tender lays,
At midnight penned in classic shades,
Of days more bright than modern days
And maids more fair than modern maids.
Of whispers in 3 willing ear;
Of kisses on b!ushing check,
Each kiss, each whisper far too dear
Our modern lips to give or speak.
Of passions too untlmely crossed
OF passions sHghted or betrayed
Of kindred spirits early lost,
And buds that blossOmmed but to fade.
Of beaming eyes and tresses gay,
Elastic form and noble brow,
And forms that have all passed away,
And left them what we see them now.
And IS it thus-is human love
So very light ahd frail a thing!
And must youths brightest vision move
Forever on Times restless wing!
Must all the eyes that still are bright,
And all the lips that talk of bliss,
And all the forms so fair to sight,
Hereafter only come to this!
Then what are all earth S treasures worth,
If we at length must lose them thus
II all we value most on earth
Ere long must fade away from us2

How to Write.

Write when you have a good thing to
say, and W hen you are in the vein. But do
not think of the vein, nor how you are 60
ing to write. Write simply to give ex-
preston according to the dictation. If
what you write is good, well; if not, your
taste or cultivation is at fault. Correct
that. But never attempt to correct style;
let that take care of itself, as it is but the
mans way Of expressing himself, and mast
flow naturally from the mind. If the mind
is cultivated. the style will be, as that is
but the efiuence Of the thought; if not,
not-for, as our cultivation is, SO are we.
Afectation is the great bane of literature,
and should, more sIudiously than anything
else be avoided. Give US what is IN the
man naturally, sincerely. That is what We
want, as every man has something that is
good. and that is his own peculiarly. We
want to see that.

Preserve the Organization.

The great gains made by the DemOcra-
oy in the State, and especially our triumph
in this Congressional district, should stim-
ulate US to preserve iu tact our Organiza-
ton as a party. and to be ready to put forth
our strength in the struggle next year for
the election of a Democratic Governor and
Legislature, and for the restoration of
peace and prosperity to the State. Then
we will be better prepared for the contest
in another struggle for the restoration of
the Federal Union and Constitution. Four
years is but moment in the life of a ma
tion-and il this government is to be con-
tinued, it must be by a constant effort to
maintain its true principles. Let US, then,
preserve our organization and continue to
work
